If there are 15 people who follow me today, I will be up again.
As Davina said at the event this morning, made Rania step foot toward her meeting place with Khanif.
He was very careful in moving his feet there and do not forget, he occasionally looked to the right and to the left - afraid that someone would see him go to see Khanif. It could be bad, if anyone sees it.
The moment he had passed through the strawberry garden, he was so astonished to see the number of flowers on his left right as if forming a hallway.
Must be as abundant as it enters into his sense of smell. He even stopped for a moment to breathe deeply the air so fresh and fragrant.
But wait! He only realized that this morning he did not see this or himself who did not pay too much attention to his footsteps?
Ah, Rania is getting dizzy.
He didn't think about it anymore, afraid that he might even get confused himself.
Arriving there Rania, he did not even find anyone that means the person who called him here.
"Where is Khanif?" ask Rania in my heart. "Or did I mishear what Davina said? It seems so," he continued later.
Rania then turned her whole body, about to return to the villa. But when Rania had just stepped foot, someone she knew very well called her name first.
"Ro."
Rania turned. He spread his eyes looking for the figure of Khanif. Just below the shady tree, he saw the figure of a man walking up to him.
"I don't think you're coming after what happened a few hours ago" Khanif said of his election.
"I'm not that kind of person, sir."
"Thank God then."
"Why did you call me here?"
"Something I want to tell you."
"What do you want to say?" ask Rania curious.
"Maybe it's too soon for you, but for me it's the right time" Khanif paused to see Rania's reaction.
After a few seconds passed, but there was no sign that Rania would respond, Khanif continued his words by looking right into Rania's brown-eyed bead.
"Some time has passed together. I've been waiting for this moment for a long time. To say this, it took me a lot of time to consider everything that might have happened. I asked my own heart many times. Is this my choice? And is this exactly how I feel? You know, many times my answer remains the same, that my choices and feelings are right! Namely you. I know you deserve someone who is the best, someone who can support you without limits, who allows you to grow without limits, and love you without limits. For that, will you allow me to be that someone? Someone who is able to make you happy and protect you until we can finally age together."
Khanif then suddenly knelt down and said, "will you marry me?" khanif said seriously.
Rania quiet. He did not expect that the sleeping flowers he had dreamed of a few days ago would even become a reality for now.
Did he have to answer 'yes' when he just found out the facts about Khanif from mama Adelin when the inauguration event is underway. She simply did not want to be considered a woman who accepted Khanif for feeling sympathy.
In contrast to Khanif who waited patiently for Rania's reply from his proposal. He is afraid to hear Rania's answer, but he is also curious about Rania's answer!
But a moment later, Rania woke up. He then saw Khanif right in the bead of his eyes. He thought he would reject Khanif this time because he did not want his sympathetic feelings to dominate him.
"I'm sorry, I don't want to be with a guy who's ever turned me down!" said Rania calm without caring if the man in front of her is her boss in the world of work.
Hearing Rania's words just now made Khanif feel challenged to conquer the heart of this woman before him. Although Rania has said that she was rejected, but she will still try to always try to get close to Rania. They just don't want the same thing to happen again.
"Do not think I forget the incident in the back garden of the school at that time," continued Rania then so that Khanif believed that he had been rejected.
"You still remember that? Isn't that a soul mate."
"Stupid?"
"Hem, yes, mate, because that way, I can tell if not for a second you forget me," Khanif said with a smile.
"That's in my mind."
"What are you rejecting me at this moment because from now on I will keep trying until you say 'yes'."
"Then you keep trying" said Rania. After that, he left Khanif who smiled funny looking at Rania's behavior like a child.
***
As Khanif said in their secret place, Khanif always had a way to get close to Rania without being suspected by everyone. Like telling her on the grounds of an actual job had nothing to do with Rania.
"Rania, you don't stay away from me" Khanif said, making Rania inevitably have to stay near Khanif.
"Father can put this fruit basket beside him while picking strawberries," commented Rania when Khanif told him to bring a fruit basket containing strawberries from Khanif's quotes.
"Eat him don't reject me" Khanif said inwardly making him chuckle involuntarily.
"Why are you laughing?" ask Rania then.
"No. Just want to."
"Why don't you ask Farah for help. Isn't he a secretary, father?"
"He's not fit to be my secretary at a time like this."
"Father chose me because I'm more suited to circumstances like this?" rania asked in disbelief at the face that was deliberately made in shock.
"Not really," Khanif said. He then continued it in his heart. "You're better suited to be my partner."
"Then what?" rania asked, starting to be impatient.
"I just want to. Never mind, just help me. Let's eat cake and juice from this fruit immediately, "cut Khanif quickly.
Rania breathed a heavy sigh. He seems to be being bullied by Khanif, if he remembers the words of Khanif that do not make sense.
He then spread his eyes to find someone who could replace him.
As she sees Lisa not far from them, Rania waves her hand calling Lisa to come closer.
Khanif was busy cleaning the weeds in his strawberry plant, making Rania take the opportunity to talk to Lisa.
"What's wrong?" lisa asked annoyed at seeing the closeness of Rania and Khanif who had hurt her eyes.
"I want to ask for help with you" he said slowly and smiled.
"Solicit for what?" said ketus.
"I want to go back to the villa, but Mr. Khanif no one helps me carry the fruit basket. If you can, please replace me here."
Lisa immediately sparkled happily. Although he did not become Khanif's secretary, but if he was near Khanif continued, he would.
"alright. Get the fruit basket." Lisa reached out her hand to take the basket for it.
Without being told twice, Rania happily gave it away.
"thank you. Then I'll go first. If Mr. Khanif is looking for me, you just tell me that I'm back at the villa because there's something I have to do, ok," Rania said after giving Lisa the proper alasa if Khanif asked later.
"Hem. Come quickly go."
Rania nodded. He left them in the strawberry garden with other people who were busy with their respective activities.
