Holy Marriage
Perfect Man
Anna circled her gaze around, making sure that the conversation would be safe from the other ears. Class is empty. There were only three other people sitting around huddling. During these breaks, children spend more time outside the classroom, especially in the cafeteria.
Anna heaved a sigh of relief, it seemed safe talking there.
“Sister Angel fooled by Alan. But you know for yourself that Angel already has a candidate for priest. Of course, Angel did not want to. While this matchmaking has been talked about by both families. At the end of the day, I'm the one who keeps Kak Angel.” Anna shrinks the volume of her voice so that no one catches her voice, except for Arini who sits in front of her.
“Double what? You mean to marry?”
“Sst... don't be too negative dong. Your mouth is a little bit clingy little.”
“Oke okay, sori.” Arini patted her mouth slowly.
“Tau who will be my man?”
“Who?” Arini frowned curiously.
“Alan.”
“Hah?”
“Udah I said, do not fad. Mouthlo mangap widening, Rin.”
“Eh, sori. Yes, kebablasan mulu nih mouth. Waw, amazing, lucky life lo, Ann. No need to go all the way to find the perfect guy, he came himself sent the same God to be your soul mate. Geez, I swear to God, Ann.”
Anna wheezed. Obviously all eyes looked at him lucky, had a perfect partner as Alan, but the reality was not as beautiful. Anna will probably feel like she's in jail after living with Alan, or even she won't feel at home because she has to live full of acting.
“But strangely, what reason would Alan's parents want to fool Alan as an elo boy? Sorry, not ngehina, if you think about it, the same family as Alan William family is certainly different class. How, they want ya fool you same Alan?”
“Well, that's exactly what makes me wonder. What is the point behind all this? Why would William's family want to fool Alan with my family. Dad said, I'm willing to fool me with Alan because I already owe the William family a favor. In other words, William's family has helped my family a lot. That's it, they also asked one of the father's children to be a son-in-law. What are the advantages of my family until it can be seen as great as that in their eyes, right? Not only do you think there, I have been wondering since the beginning.”
“Udah, but he didn't manifest. He said he doesn't know anything. Anyway not really good to talk to Alan, feel like talking about the wall. Outer view is doang perfect, but ice block kayak.”
“Masak, anyway? He was cool doang kali, lo aja wrong ngartiin his attitude.”
“Tauk, ah. Don't talk to him again. Can be chilled if you are surprised by people.”
Anna stared at the three girls of her class who entered the classroom.
“Anaaa... Tell me dong dong ilmu can be invited to walk with a guy like Alan!”
“Ann, yesterday Alan ngajakin lo where?”
“Lo knows Alan since when?”
The rush of questions made Anna just frown and cover her ears with both palms. Be fat! Suddenly seleb!
“Hin... Anna Songong knows Alan. I know you too!”
“From you guys on the storm, about to go to school for a walk to the mole, yuk,” invite Anna to switch the conversation.
“Ide brilliant, tuh,” sahut Arini girang.
