Jovian Alton (Life-Life Bodyguard)
Sunday Night.

Tok tok!!

The door of her room was knocked several times, making Kiana who had just finished studying some of her lecture materials immediately turn to the direction the sound came from.

"Non?"

"Yes Ma'am?"

Kiana immediately closed her book, tidying the beaver on the study table there, until it looks neat as before.

"Just go in, Ma'am. I'm not the key." He said he then got up, and approached the door of the room when a house assistant never opened the door even though he had called him earlier.

The clamps!!

Kiana pulled the door of her room until it was completely open.

"Why, Mommy?"

"Mother and Father asked me to call, Non Kia. In the back garden of the house, Non!" Obviously his home assistant.

Kiana slightly twisted her body, staring at the clock stuck to the wall of her room, which had been shown at 21:30 p.m.

"What's wrong? Is it still night gathering behind the house? Is there a tea show?" Kiana looked at the woman in front of her questioningly.

"I don't know, .. It was just told to call Non Kia!"

Kiana finally nodded, she immediately stepped out, and walked right behind her house assistant.

Kiana walked down the stairs one by one, and after arriving at the bottom floor the two split up, Kiana walked towards the back door that was open, and, while Ipah passed towards a room where they rested after doing many activities.

Kiana's voice heard faintly. All he knew for sure was that it was the voice of his father and mother, who had no idea what the two meant to ask Kiana to meet them even this late, as she was about to go to rest.

"So what about your family Jo?" Danu asked.

"Hmmm!" Kiana cleared her throat, she was standing at the exit threshold, making all her gaze be on him.

Knee-length sleep dress is maroon red, has a white polka-dot accent. A pale face without make-up, with adorable ear-shaped bando bear adorning his short hair.

Jovian locked his gaze on the girl who now had a different status. Not his foster child anymore, but a girl, who already bears the title of his future wife.

"Is her title really my future wife?" Jovian spoke in his heart.

"Kia? Come here." Come here." Danu waved her hand, asking her daughter to come closer immediately.

"Thank God you haven't slept, so we can discuss something that was delayed, right?" Herlin now looked even more excited, in contrast to his attitude at the beginning, who looked a little doubtful to the two especially Kiana.

The girl nodded, then she walked over, and sat on the sofa right beside Jovian. The man this time came in a more relaxed outfit.

Grey hoodie, with denim pants. There were no shirts, suits and ties, but of course it didn't change the way Kiana looked to Jovian.

The girl continued to praise her good looks, although a flat look continued to dominate the man's face.

"What else to talk about?" Ask Kiana. "Mama and Papa ask Om Jovian to come again? Did you go home?"

"Yes because this is very serious," Danu replied. "Isn't that right, Jo?" The man turned to the man sitting right next to his daughter.

Jovian nodded, while Kiana turned a glance, and turned her gaze back the other way, with her heart continuing to pound.

It's been a week. But it does not make Kiana feel used to it, especially the relationship that happens suddenly is still stiff, and has a fairly high limit.

There is nothing sweeter that Jovian did, than to offer a few handshake. The rest of the man always acted as usual, cold, indifferent and very indifferent.

"Are you ready to go to sleep?" Herlin asked.

"Nggg, .. not yet! Finish showering straight away with the task, keep learning some material."

Herlin smiled.

"So how? You agreed? What did Jovian say at the time?" Danu looked at her daughter.

Kiana turned towards Jovian. With a feeling of wonder, because he had already admitted a bond that existed, but why did the man not say anything to his parents?

"Emmmm, .. does my answer affect everything? I mean with Papa and Mama's plan maybe?"

Danu just smiled, even with his wife.

"It really should be? Did I get married quickly? While my lecture is still going on for the next few months, .. can Papa and Mama not be a little patient? Waiting for Kia until graduation first, or whatever?"

"Good intentions should not be delayed. Anyway Papa will feel calm if Jovian can really protect you, not bound by working hours like now." Obviously Danu again.

Kiana turned back to the side, where Jovian continued to quietly listen to her conversation with both parents.

"It's weird!" Kiana.

"Omm? Don't want to comment? Or protest because Papa asked Om to come here at night?"

"Now the one who asked you, not me. If I'm the one asked, I'll answer it immediately." Jovian answered briefly.

Kiana threw her back on the back of the sofa.

"Papa explained. Papa is not willing to lose responsibility, it's just that Papa and Mama see if the big changes you experience when under Jovian's control."

Hearing that Kiana squinted her eyes. Trying to find the truth in the bead of his parents, until Kiana looked at Danu and Herlin alternately.

"Already! If you still want to think, we're back to a question you haven't answered, Jo!"

"When your parents? Where are they? Then did they find out if you're getting married soon? Yes even though Kiana hasn't answered but I'm sure Kiana will accept you." Danu said with a feeling of joy.

"For this no one knows yet. Maybe if Kiana had already given an answer, then I would have taken Kia to see both of my parents."

Herlin nodded.

"alright. Chat seems like we've already, Kiana is still confused to answer, .. so you should go out for a weekly night, whatever you want to go anywhere, but go home before midnight."

Herlin said a silly thing, which made Kiana a little surprised.

"Yes, go. Maybe Kiana still needs some exploration!" Danu approved his wife's proposal.

"What?!" Kiana reacted with a shocked look on her face, although deep in her heart she was cheering in the crowd, as she was about to spend time with her cold man.

"Quick! You're only up until midnight." Herlin said as he looked at the two meaningfully.

"What place can you go at ten o'clock." Kiana turned to the side, as she passed through several restaurants and cafes were almost closed, visible from the lights of the place that began to look extinguished.

"At least follow what your parents want. The important thing is that we just go out, .. as a formality so that they don't keep forcing like that." Jovian Sahut.

Kiana turned her head, looked at Jovian for a while, then looked back at the densely packed streets before her.

"So where are we going?" Finally the man asked.

"I was confused too. It's up to you."

Jovian shifted his eyes.

"I'm taking you somewhere?"

"What place?"

"Like a hangout, .. that's full of street food."

Kiana nodded.

"You?" Jovian.

"Yes, it's okay to be the same Om only, .. uh .. emm I mean …"

"It's okay. That's how if you're in love, your heart, brain and mind really never line up." Jovian smelled a smile.

And after walking around the streets of the city, looking for a place to visit. Jovian's car pulled over at one of the five-foot hawker spots that looked very crowded.

The two got out of the car together. Walking into the area, with Kiana who did not change her appearance at all. Still with a sleeping dress and bando ear-shaped bear that continues to be attached to the top of his head.

If usually Jovian who always reached out offered a grip for Kiana. Now that the girl was doing it without any cue as usual, she immediately clasped Jovian's big hand very tightly.

Jovian lowered his gaze, staring at the tiny hand that was currently holding his hand.

"Where were we going, Om?" Kiana looked up, looking at the man who was also looking at her.

"Later to buy food. But I want to show you one place first. Not fancy, but comfortable to make a place to enjoy a bright night like now."

Jovian walks first, pulling Kiana's hand, carrying a girl he somehow calls towards the other side of the place.

Without much talking Kiana followed where Jovian was taking her, while looking at the hands with a stifled smile.

"This is what the concept is? Suddenly married, but don't know if we're dating or not." Inner Kiana monologue.

Jovian's steps stopped, just after setting foot on the grass, with a small artificial lake, which spread out a bridge, with a fountain visible in the middle there.

They continued walking, approached the wooden bridge, and completely stopped in the middle.

The wind was blowing quite hard at night today, bringing a splash of water towards Jovian as well as Kiana. It makes them both feel cold.

"Here deserted?"

Kiana looked at the tall man standing beside her.

"Hemm, .. because this is not for the public."

"Why do we get in?"

"That's my secret." Jovian smiles.

Kiana nodded. They were silent for a while, enjoying the atmosphere with their respective minds.

"Omm? I'd like to ask you a question?" He raised his gaze.

Jovian changed his standing position until faced with Kiana.

"Hemmm, .. say!"

"Om to be honest but!"

The man nodded.

"It's about Om's proposal at that time. After I thought about it, there was something strange about everything, including Papa and Mama. How do I feel Om is under Papa's pressure? Here that should be more advanced is Om, .. kok even Papa is more beautiful as well all yah!"

Jovian watched in silence.

"Om told Papah to marry me? Om forced, right?"

Jovian was still silent, looking at Kiana's pretty face fixedly.

"I hope Om is honest. I really-gener …"

"Yes." Yeah."

Kiana clenched her mouth, she felt disbelief, but at least the suspicion she felt actually occurred.

"So yeah? Want to marry me at Papa's request? Not purely to marry me?" Kiana felt her chest so tight.

"At first yes. Mr. Danu asked me to marry you, promising that 10% of his mines would turn into mine. But after I thought about it, there is no harm in me trying this relationship, especially you have already expressed your feelings to me, .. so I decided to accept Mr. Danu's offer, but not with his shares!"

"So, …"

"I try to open myself up. Trying to get used to what I had previously been away from. So if you haven't gotten a sweet act, please understand because I'm trying to love you."

"Maybe it'll take a little time, but I promise I'll return your feelings." Jovian's voice slowly sounded lower and lower.

Disappointed face, Kiana clearly showed. His head nodded, smacking a smile with feet that took one step forward, on tiptoes and landing a brief kiss on Jovian's lips.

Jovian.

"This is my first kiss, Om, .. I give as a token of gratitude because Om has tried to repay my love." He backed away to stay away.

But with a quick movement Jovian grabbed Kiana's body, pulling her waist back closer. And she put her lips together again, and the chewy part was so full of feeling, that Kiana closed her eyes, enjoying what Jovian was doing right now.

Jovian stopped, removed the link between his lips, then pressed his forehead, until a warm breath they could feel for each other.

"I said I was trying." Jovian whispered while rubbing Kiana's wet lips with her thumb.
