Getting Married for Lying
114 - Aria's invitation

"Vier, have you ever been to this restaurant?" vaya asked while glancing at Vier who was currently busy struggling in front of the menu book.

"It's the first time I've gone to this restaurant" Vier replied without taking his eyes off the menu list.

"Seriously?" ask Vaya for astonishment.

Vier closed his menu book and turned his eyes to Vaya.

"You don't believe me?" ask Vier.

"Vier, this restaurant was even very famous when I was a kid. Even when we were in High School, this restaurant was the most hit place of the era! It seems like almost all young people used to hang out here!" said Vaya.

"Hmm, I see, I don't think I was part of those kids hanging out" Vier said, laughing.

But Vier's laughter sounded full of bitterness.

"Hmm, yes, I know, I think this place will definitely drain your allowance, if every day you come to this place with different girls," said Vaya.

"Haha" Vier laughed. "Basic knows!"

"So, are you ready to order?" ask Vaya.

"Hmm, yes," said Vier.

"Servant," Vaya waved her hand.

The waiter immediately approached their table, the pen and memo were already in his hands.

"I order smoked crab, black pepper crab, salted egg shrimp, Padang sauce squid, sweet sour snapper, spicy green sauce shellfish, kale cah, salted fish chayote, sauteed fish, each 1 serving, white rice 1 serving, drink iced tea sweet," Vaya mentions all the menus he ordered.

Vaya is really very enthusiastic and can not wait to eat the dishes that became the main recommendation of this restaurant.

"Vaya, are you seriously going to eat all the food yourself?" ask Vier.

"alone? There will be you, Vier," said Vaya.

Vier grinned.

"Is there a roasted lobster?" ask Vaya.

"Lobster is empty, brother," replied the waiter.

"Oh so," said Vaya.

Vier immediately pointed to the menu he had chosen and soon the waiter took note of Vier's order menu.

The waiter repeats all the ordered menus before they are processed into the kitchen.

Vaya looked around the restaurant that looked quiet.

"It feels weird that there are only two of us here, usually there is Mr. Mike who will watch" said Vaya.

"Why? You don't like being alone with me like this?" ask Vier.

"Bu-not that, it feels like something is lacking. Because usually Mr. Mike is always there even if only secretly," replied Vaya.

"Well, that's Mike's main job. Shut up and watch" said Vier.

"I really thought about Mr. Mike, how could he eat with his hands so hurt?" Vaya wonders.

"Vaya, Mike eats with his mouth, not his hands! Haha! You're such a fool," Vier laughed mockingly.

"Vier, really, I'm worried about Mr. Mike" said Vaya.

"You take it easy, Mike can take care of himself very well" said Vier.

...*****...

Meanwhile in the hospital, Mike is still waiting in front of the treatment room where Darti is being treated. He still waits patiently while Vier and Vaya settle Deri's problems in prison.

"Sir Mike."

The greeting of Bu Asih made Mike turn his head. Bu Asih immediately returned to the hospital after hearing from Vaya that Darti had to be hospitalized because of his high blood disease relapse.

"Mom," said Mike.

"How's Darti doing?" ask Bu Asih.

"It's been better so it can be moved out of the IGD room" Mike replied.

"Sir Mike how?" ask Aria.

Mike nodded and simply commented his smile.

"Because Bu Asih and Aria are already here, I beg you to leave my room" said Mike.

"Sir Mike, once again I say thank you," said Bu Asih.

Mike nodded and immediately left Bu Asih and Aria.

Poor thing, Kak Darti, the condition of this drop must be because of Deri, Inner Bu Asih.

"Mom, I'm hungry, I want to eat yes, ma'am," said Aria.

"Yes already, eat first, be careful yes, do not go far," Bu Asih said.

"Yes Ma'am" said Aria.

Aria rushed out of the room. His steps were so light, even half ran towards the restaurant selling fried chicken on the ground floor.

Aria was really hungry because once she came home from school, she took her to the hospital again.

With the pocket money given by her sister-in-law the other day, Aria can snack whatever she wants even though half has been saved. Even so still, the pocket money so much and it feels endless.

What message is it? Hmm, Aria thought so in front of the restaurant attendant.

Is Mr Mike kutraktir also yes, as a thank you? Inner Aria.

...*****...

Aria immediately brought the food she bought to the room where Mike was being treated.

I don't know why Aria felt so fluttering and nervous. 

Geck... Geck...

Aria knocked on the door of the VIP room and opened the door.

"Sir Mike" said Aria.

"Male?" Mike is flabbergasted to see Aria's appearance.

Aria approached Mike.

"What are you doing here, Aria?" ask Mike.

"Sir Mike, here," Aria thrust a paper bag at Mike.

"Take it as a form of my thanks" said Aria.

"Oh, thank you, Aria, sorry, you shouldn't bother like this. Later your pocket money runs out," said Mike received the paper bag.

Aria shook her head quickly.

"No, I don't bother! Besides the pocket money given by Kak Vier is still a lot," said Aria.

"Oh so," Mike grinned.

Well, if considering the amount of money Vier gave to Aria, it was obviously a lot of nominal for the size of the Junior High.

"What's up, Aria?" ask Mike.

"Sir Mike, eat together yuk," asked Aria.

"I'm so hungry, since I got home from school I haven't eaten anything" Aria said.

Aria immediately pushed the portable table and immediately placed the food in front of Mike.

"Eating together is more fun than eating alone" Aria said.

Aria takes the paper bag out of Mike's hand, taking it out one by one. There are packages of fried chicken, white rice, and fizzy drinks. There are also french fries, soups, and pudding.

Aria is so excited and enthusiastic, really inversely proportional to Mike who can only be silent.

"Let's eat, Mr. Mike, I'm really hungry" Aria asked.

Mike is silent.

"Sir Mike doesn't want to eat? Is it still full?" ask Aria.

Aria was stunned to see Mike who was still sculpting.

"Sir Mike won't eat with me?" ask Aria.

Aria's eyes started to glaze over.

"I'm sorry, Aria, it's really not like that" Mike replied.

"So why?" ask Aria.

"Aria, sorry yes, I'm actually used to eating alone, after all I can't eat freely given the condition of my hands like this" Mike explained.

"Oh yeah, then, Mr. Mike, I'll take a bribe."

Mike was speechless, currently in front of him, a girl in a blue white uniform volunteered to bribe him.
