Hugging Longs
Chapters. 25
“Sara, maybe you will be surprised to hear this. But I want you to know that I'm really serious about getting to know you closer. So, Sara, will you marry me?”
Sara was surprised, but remained mediocre. He showed no overreaction other than calm.
And Sarah's tranquility became an unrest for Arga. I was worried that Arga was waiting for Sara's answer. This seems rushed. But not now, and then when.
“Chef,” call Sara slim. To be honest, he really has no answer to Arga's question. His heart was still firmly attached to Danny. So forgetting Danny is still too difficult for him. Receiving Arga's proposal while his heart was still filled with other men, wasn't that bad? It felt like she was the most evil woman in the world.
“Call my name, Sara. With you calling me that, it feels like you are keeping your distance from me.”
Sara took a deep breath. Then put on a thin smile.
“Arga, may I ask one thing to you?”
“Sure. Of course you can. Please, you want to ask what?” Arga immediately cramped, staring at Sara with sparkling. Just this time he was made to pound like this. He had just known Sara. Is he in love at first sight?
“What makes you sure that I am a woman who deserves to be with you?”
Arga. He was confused to choose the right answer to Sara's question. A simple question yet challenging his self-esteem. As a man who is not neko-neko, he was instead overwhelmed to find the answer.
“You don't know me very well. What if it turns out that I am a bad woman. Moreover, you know myself I am a widow. Everywhere the widowed woman is looked upon badly. Aren't you going to be disappointed when you find out what I really am?” looks like added Sara. However, he must ensure the seriousness of Arga. He just doesn't want to complicate Arga's life in the future. It would be better if Arga changed his mind right now.
Arga rubbed his nape, soaked his lips with a fretful face. His pride is at stake right now. If he mistakenly gives an answer, it is possible that Sara's assessment of him will be different. Convincing Sara for her earnestness and intention was indeed a challenge for her.
“I believe in my heart.” I don't know where Arga got the answer. But clearly, to convince someone does not have to be from the heart? To touch Sara's heart, it was clear that she had to use her heart.
“But, what if it turns out your heart is wrong?”
Good Lord! Arga. How hard it was to convince Sara. If to convince him alone was this difficult, then what about seizing his heart? Will it be this hard?
“Sara, do you believe in love at first sight?”
Now it was Sara's turn to answer what. Honestly, he believed in love at first sight. Like his love for Danny. But as time rolled on, it turned out that he was mistaken. He also smiled wryly.
“Maybe a long time ago, I believe. But now?” Sara shakes.
“Then allow me to restore your trust again. I won't give you much promise. But I will try to do my best for you. Let the time later prove everything.”
“But ..” Sara paused her speech for a moment. Danny's shadow is now dancing in his eyes. It was hard to give a real answer. But the words of Oma Widya some time ago also disturbed his mind. Wanting to refuse, he was afraid to disappoint Oma Widya. Debt is the reason he has no choice. And after all, Arga is a good man.
“Arga, you still have a chance to think about this again from the beginning, before you regret later,” said Sara ventured to look at Arga. Really he did not want to hurt Arga, if Arga knew in his heart still engraved the name of another man.
“I'm sorry, Sara. I'm sorry why I just met you. I'm sorry why God didn't bring us together long ago.” I don't know where Arga got an answer like this. If said, he is not the type of master seducer. What was spoken from his mouth was purely an expression from his heart.
Sara hesitates. Not to the earnestness of Arga, but to the firmness of his soul. Arga may be sure of his feelings. But Arga's belief even makes the return of the favor further undermines his soul. Because it doesn't feel good if he rejects Arga's proposal. The man and his grandmother were two people who had helped him a lot.
“Sara, will you give me the answer tonight? Because tomorrow we can't guarantee whether we have a chance. Because life no one knows,” pinta Arga does not want to force, but impressed so. But in a different context.
Sighing slowly, Sara lowered her head, then she nodded while closing her eyes. He tries to cast away Danny's shadow and replace it with Arga. But what happens, Danny's shadow is increasingly visible.
Excited to see Sara's nod of the head, Arga smiled broadly. Flowers bloomed in his heart, giving off a fragrant fragrance as fragrant as love. So happy, he opened his arms wide, about to hug Sara. But hitch because slapped ethics. Realize that it was not yet time for him to do so to Sarah.
“Thank you, Sara,” he said. It was truly the happiest thing for him. Even the stars in the sky flickered, as if they were happy for him.
....
Sara was sitting on the edge of the bed. He is still trying to reassure himself if what happened a while ago is the reality. The fact that he had given Arga the green light to enter his life. He also had to give a red light to another man.
In fact, deep down in his heart, he was still expecting someone. Someone she still believes is her first love. Danny Dharmendra's.
Expelling Danny's shadow as far as possible, Sara is about to lay down on the bed. Hoping in a dream Danny's shadow is lost swallowed by a pseudo-despair. He also hoped that when he woke up tomorrow, the shadow would be replaced by another figure. A figure that he should cherish and prioritize for now and beyond. The figure that will accompany him for his entire life. Arga.
Just as his head touched the pillow, his phone lying on the nightstand rang. His hands flailing around picking up the phone.
A call from an unknown number was on the phone's screen. Without thinking, he immediately shifted the green button. Not yet he greeted the caller across there, a voice had surprised him first.
“Sara, it's me.”
Sontak Sara got up from the bed. The voice was very familiar to his ears.
“Danny?” he muttered with a tense face.
“Sara I want to meet you.”
“For what else?”
“Many things I want to say to you. Sara, please, meet me.”
“Sorry, I can't, Danny. Have you forgotten who I am? I'm getting married soon. It would be very unethical if I met another man when I already had a future husband. I don't want to break my future husband's trust. And you are a self-didn't know guy by being a relationship bully.”
“I don't care about that. I beg Sara. I'd really like to meet you. Sara, just so you know, this miss really tormented me Sara. Please tell me how to make you believe that I love you. Should I end my life?”
Even the tears could not bear Sara. It is very regrettable why only now Danny realized when the road to be passed so steep climbing.
“Sara, please meet me.” Danny's request was accompanied by the sound of his sobs.
