Earth Without Dusk
99. A Gift From Earth

Nesya entered the room in her shop with a tangled face. He was very upset because his engagement had to end like this. Not to mention his parents urged him to marry Marcel. All of this was completely unexpected.

“Dumb Marcel base! He shouldn't have spoken like that in front of Papa. Why would he say everything if he had slept together? Shitty!” as if Nesya was alone.

Shortly, his phone rang. The one who called him was Marcel.

“This once-lifetime he was,” murmured Nesya when she found out Marcel called her. He immediately answered the call.

“Hallo,” greet Nesya first.

“Hallo, New. How's it going? You're okay, right?” ask Marcel.

“I'm not okay,” Nesya replied with a ketus.

“Why? Is your dad scolding you again? Or do something worse?” ask Marcel to worry.

“Papa didn't scold me. But he asked us to get married soon. And this is all because you can't put the brakes on your words,” Nesya replied in annoyance.

“You asked us to get married?” marcel was a bit surprised.

“Iya. Even worse, he asked us to get married soon. You are also asked to come to my house tomorrow and meet my papa,” explained Nesya again.

Marcel seemed silent for a moment. I don't know what was on his mind at the time.

“Hallo. Why just shut up? Already regretted the slip in front of my papaku?” nesya Syndir.

“I'm thinking again. I said that at the time to help you. At that time your father desperately did not want to cancel your engagement. I have no other choice. You should be thanking me" Marcel replied.

“But because of what you said we were forced to marry. Do you want?”

“If you're willing, I'll think.” Marcel's answer was beyond Nesya's expectations.

“You're kidding right, Marcel?” ask Nesya not to believe it. Nesya knew Marcel was never serious about a relationship. If there is someone he likes, the woman is just Dusk.

“I'm serious. If you're willing, I can accept this. But I want you to take marriage with me seriously, too. I loved changing women before. But I have a principle, if I am married, I will quit my habit,” replied Marcel honestly.

“How? You ready?” Now it was Marcel's turn to ask Nesya.

Nesya was silent for a moment. Marcel's answer was beyond belief. He thought the man would reject him immediately. But it turns out that he would agree to it on the condition that Nesya also had to change and be serious to him.

“I don't know. We discuss it again later,” said Nesya then quickly close the call.

Nesya leaned her back on the back of the chair. He couldn't believe Marcel's answer. Is it true that Marcel would marry her and change his habits later? Is it that easy for a guy like Marcel to get better? I don't know, Nesya's head feels like it's about to break thinking about the problem.

If Nesya comes to the boutique with a tangled face, another with Dusk comes to her office with a flowery face. Plus on his desk there is a new flower arrangement in a vase along with a box of pink gifts. Do not ask again who the sender is, of course Young Master Aerospace the answer.

Dusk drew his nose closer to the fresh flower, it smelled so fragrant that his mood was happier. Then he sat down on the chair and opened the gift in the box. Dusk laughed a little at what it contained. A bracelet with ornament shaped cherry and strawberry fruit. The man is getting more romantic, thought Dusk.

The greeting card remains the same. No romantic words there. It is written only for my Smile, and its sender from your Earth, your Sky, your Sire. He likes to be narcissistic lately. Soon the phone rang. Who else called if not the gift giver.

“Hallo,” says Dusk.

“Hallo, Gunjaku. Your voice makes my mood better,” said the Earth across there.

“New hello alone is like that, especially if you say dear.” Look, this Young Master has already started fighting early in the morning.

“Are you not working already this early in the morning?” sindir Dusk. In his heart he was happy too.

There was the sound of the Earth laughing across the street.

“I'm the boss. Sometimes relaxing a little is okay. By the way do you like the prize?”

“Like. Really like. Thanks, yeah. But why is his greeting card not saying anything?”

“No, you're addicted to my dreadlocks.”

“Not-not. That's not what I meant. Usually there is the writing have a nice day, or what it is,” said Dusk while pursing his lips.

“Yes already, tomorrow-tomorrow I make poems all together. Oh yeah, later afternoon do you want to see the sunset with me?”

“Hmmm. Lately the weather often rains in the afternoon.”

“Oke, okay. I'll call you later. I closed the phone first. Happy working. I love you, Senjaku.”

“I love you too, my Earth, my Sky, my Dirgantar,” said Dusk which made the Earth develop her smile.

Although it had already decided on his call but the smile on Earth's face still had not subsided as well. He even smiled to himself while rubbing his chin because he imagined the face of Dusk.

“Mr...Mr...”

No response yet.

“Tuan..excuse me, Mr..”.

Jefri still wasn't considered there.

“Young Master!” call Jefri in a rather loud voice.

Only then did the Earth awaken and look at Jefri in annoyance. “What's up? You just interrupt!”

“Sorry, Sir. Soon we have an internal meeting, Sir,” Jefri said reminding his master.

“Yes, I remember. You go to the meeting room first. Later I will follow,” said Bumi.

“Good, Mr.”

Jefri also came out of the room while shaking his head.

“The more strange days just the behavior of the Young Master. I wonder what it's like to fall in love,” Jefri muttered to himself.
