I don't think time keeps turning fast. Today is a very anticipated day by Rayyan, where he will propose Arumi and pin a diamond ring as a binder that the woman has officially become his future wife. The man not only wants to propose Arumi but also intends to do the engagement at the same time so that the road to the pelaminan getting closer.
All the necessary needs are done. Starting from the handover, the rings and parcels that will be given to Nyimas have been taken care of. Certainly not Rayyan who takes care of all those needs but Rio and his beloved wife who intervened to help the Chinese man in the process of preparing a proposal and engagement. Rayyan is only in charge of choosing a ring that suits Arumi in accordance with the instructions of Rini-a true friend of his future wife.
Armed with information from Rini, Rayyan finally found a diamond ring shaped tention setting. The diamond ring is quite unique, because the two ends of the ring seem to be pressed and then united by a diamond jewel in the middle.
There is a philosophy of its own why Rayyan chose the ring model. He likens the two ends to himself and Arumi. Two human beings who have different nature, character and culture but ultimately united in a marriage bond. Although the price is quite expensive, but it does not matter because Rayyan wants to give the best for his future wife.
"How, Ray, are you ready?" Rio noticed the appearance of his best friend from the reflection of the mirror in the living room of his residence.
Since seven o'clock in the morning, Rayyan had arrived at Rio's house. He deliberately came there to ensure that nothing was missed during the application process and the engagement took place.
Despite looking nervous, Rayyan tried to be calm in front of her best friend.
"Ehm .. already," he replied briefly. He again tidied a brown shirt wrapped in a stocky body and athletic.
It seems that Rayyan is being hit by nervousness that is limited to the highest level. Seen from the movement of the body that continues to move restlessly and wet palms and cold sweat began to pour out as big as corn kernels.
The movement successfully caught Rio's attention. The man who works as a lawyer at one of the famous law firms in Jakarta, pulled the corner of his lips while staring at Rayyan.
Slowly, he approached his friend. Then, stand behind Rayyan. His right hand patted his best friend's shoulder and said, "Your appearance is okay. Your body is also so fragrant. I'm sure Arumi will be more interested in you."
"Trust me, she must have immediately accepted your proposal that very second," Rio's tease was accompanied by a light nudity.
Rini who happened to be standing in front of the connecting door between the family room and the living room chimed in. "What my husband, Ray, said. Your appearance today is so perfect. Especially if you smile, I'm sure many Eveites will fall in love with you."
Instead of being comforted by Rini's jokes, Rayyan acted the opposite way around. He drew a sharp gaze through the reflection of the mirror.
Not wanting his best friend's mood to be ruined because of his wife's joke, Rio distracted Rayyan. The man glanced towards the circular object that was coiled around the wrist.
"We'd better leave now. The sooner you arrive at Aunt Nyimas' house, the sooner Rayyan turns to Arumi."
So, Rayyan and the Rio family left. The twins took part in the historic event. Beautiful and Nice to be in Rio car accompanied by Rini. While Rio and Mama Rio were in Rayyan's car, accompanying the groom-to-be who was about to step towards the guarantee.
Along the way, Rayyan unceasingly took a slow deep breath. Several times he is seen rubbing the sweat that collects on the man's forehead.
Fortunately Rio took the initiative to drive a car owned by Rayyan so that the oriental-faced man can freely make movements that can unravel the nervousness without fear of being laughed at by other drivers due to not focusing on the road ahead there.
"Son Rayyan, don't be so nervous. If you're too nervous Auntie's worried all the plans that you've prepared will fall apart."
Mama Rio's melodious voice from the passenger seat gave Rayyan a little peace of mind. For some reason, every time being on the side of a middle-aged woman whose age was not much different from the late beloved mama made Rayyan feel the presence of Mei Ling by her side. Gentle attitude, melodious voice and speech said the woman was able to reduce the longing in Rayyan towards the figure of the mother.
"Good, Aunt. I'll try to focus again." Rayyan nodded and smiled warmly as she looked at the middle-aged woman from the rearview mirror up ahead.
It almost took about an hour and thirty minutes, finally, two units of luxury cars owned by Rayyan driven by Rio and luxury cars owned by Rio driven by the driver has entered the housing owned by Nyimas.
'Stupid basic! How can I give that milk to Arumi. Absolutely absurd!' rayyan murmured in his heart. Shaking his head with an expression of disbelief if a man who is famous for being good at medicine will do stupid deeds when near a lover of love.
Rio glanced at the left side. The man's forehead shriveled, confused. He asked in his heart why Rayyan's attitude changed at the same time. Is it possible that Rayyan suffered from mental disorders because of too stress facing this engagement plan or is there something else that triggers him like that? However, a huge hammer struck his consciousness. He again realized if the man had experienced something similar.
Rio smiled and glanced at Rayyan. "Prepare mentally, Ray! Soon the Loly (the beloved name of Rayyan's car) will enter the yard area of the residence of Aunt Nyimas."
Rayyan replied to Rio's words casually. "I'm ready to meet with my future in-laws to ask Arumi to be my wife."
"Good! I pray, may your last struggle bring you the best." Do'a is sincere to Rio for his best friend.
Meanwhile, at Nyimas' house, Arumi was busy making chicken dumplings and cornbread. Both recipes made Rayyan fall in love with him. To make their relationship more tightly like a stamp.
Nyimas stepped into the kitchen, noticing Arumi's appearance from the top of her hair to her toes. The appearance of his beloved daughter was so charming in a dress under the knees brown-colored in line with the shirt worn by Rayyan. Makeup makeup that is not too menor and hairstyle that is plastered in the style of Korean women increasingly exudes the aura of beauty.
"What are you doing, son? Mama noticed since dawn, you've been busy in the kitchen. Will there be special guests at home?" ask Nyimas full of probes.
The woman walked up to the dining table, pouring water from inside the teapot into a long glass lying on a tray.
Arumi turned to Nyimas and replied, "Eh ... Mamma. I think Mama's still asleep." The young lady chuckled lightly. "Yes, Ma. I don't know why all of a sudden I want to make snacks for Rayyan when only a few days ago I made dumplings and cornbread. And incidentally, he said today Rayyan will come to the house."
The bouncy jemarin was so agile to play with cookware. Doesn't look awkward in the least. He enjoyed every movement of his body and hands as he moved here and there.
Nyimas's eyes were still fixed on the figure of the beautiful woman by his side. The middle-aged woman had already opened her mouth, preparing to ask another question. However, Mbak Tini's voice distracts the two women of the other generation.
"Bus ... Rumi ma'am!" mak Tini exclaimed from the terrace of the house. The woman's loud voice broke the silence of the atmosphere in the morning.
He ran into the house. The woman's breathing was irregular.
"Bu .. outside. Out--"
Arumi stopped his activities for a moment. He turned towards Mbak Tini with a difficult look.
"Who is out there?" asked Arumi annoyed. He was disturbed because his ritual of preparing favorite food for his beloved lover was disturbed.
"A-anu, Ma'am ... There-"
