The highway felt crowded and frenzied various kinds of sounds mixed into one. Vehicle fumes and pollution are spreading. All riders seemed to be competing to arrive at their destination quickly and safely. Such is the metropolitan city at certain hours.
It's almost afternoon. Erick and Gia are currently in the car, coiled in traffic. Try to enjoy the atmosphere that is already in front of the eyes.
Gia remained silent from the exit of Erick's parents' house.
"You why the hell? How's diem?" Ask Erick.
"It's okay!"
"Seriously? What are you thinking?"
"Nothing"
"Ck! Honey, I don't know you for two days! You're thinking about our wedding?" Ask Erick again.
"I was just thinking, why do you have to say that the wedding is early next month!"
"Why is that why? Faster is better!"
"Our preparation is not there at all."
"What preparation? You just have to prepare yourself, who will change status to be my wife!" Erick sumringah.
"It's not Erick! I'm actually just surprised, why so fast."
Erick looked at Gia. Because of the severe traffic jam ahead, only the car engine is lit without movement from the car.
"So you didn't accept my decision?" Erick asked in a disappointed tone.
"It's not that, honey. I just can't believe we're finally getting married!" Gia bowed listlessly.
Erick drove his car again because the road was starting to pass. He turned around when he found a crossroads.
"Where are we going? Why turn the direction?" Gia wonder.
"I'll take you home later. We're going somewhere first let you believe we're getting married."
Gia opened her mouth to ask her more about where Erick would take her. But Erick instantly prevented any questions that would come out of Gia's mouth.
"Don't protest too much, ma'am!" Erick's words made Gia silence her mouth and decide to obey.
Gia was silent while looking at the city view from the car window. Streets that have been stretched without traffic jams on the road they are now passing.
It was getting dark until they arrived at a place that made Gia flabbergasted and excited.
"Why don't you bring me here?"
Erick just smiled and held Gia's hand to enter.
"Come on!" Erick.
Gia stepped inside that place.
"Good night, Ma'am. Can we help you?" Said a young woman welcoming the arrival of Erick and Gia.
"Sir, can you please help my future wife choose a wedding dress that matches her taste?" Erick said politely and so calmly.
"Sure" he answered.
"Let's mbak!" Said the young woman of one of the workers in Bridal.
Gia looked at Erick with a glittering gaze.
"Now do you believe that we're getting married soon?" Ask Erick.
Gia simply nodded without being able to say anything more. Gia followed the woman who greeted them at the beginning of their arrival.
While Erick is seen sitting on one of the empty couches in the corner of the room while playing his phone.
Gia entered the room with a large selection of wedding dresses that even Gia never imagined she would be able to wear one of them. It was like a dream for Gia.
"Please see which one is suitable! Or do you want to see a recommendation from our store?" The young woman's voice resuscitated Gia from her mind that had gone everywhere.
"Emm can, mbak!"
"Let's mbak!" Say it while taking a step to the other side of the room.
"These are some of our latest collections. You can choose which one is suitable and suitable!"
Gia nodded and picked a few that she liked and would try.
Gia has got 3 models of wedding clothes that she will try.
And three of them are the simplest models according to Gia's simple taste.
The first was a long dress covering Gia's legs. With open neck model. From the chest to the waist there are small frilly flowers. And the back there are crossed ropes to add a slender impression.
Gia tried it on, but Gia felt this dress was still too 'scathed' for her to use.
When Gia showed Erick the clothes on, Erick looked in amazement and said "good" with a thumbs up.
Gia tried the second dress, a white dress that was only up to Gia's calf. With shanghai neck model and sleeve brucat fabric.
Erick's reaction was the same.
Gia looked at Erick with annoyed feeling as no other words came out of her mouth to just comment on Gia's appearance.
Gia hopes Erick gives an idea, for example better this way or so with various comments to make it easier for Gia to follow Erick's wishes as well.
The third Gia tried the model of the archipelago is white kebaya with studded Swarovski and pearls are not excessive. Not too open, and combined with matching batik songket cloth for his subordinates. Very fitting in Gia's body.
Gia looked at the mirror and smilingly looked at herself.
This time Erick's response was different looking at his future wife. If the first and second he said good, but in this third option he just smiled and looked down and nodded to look at Gia without saying a word.
Seeing Erick's response, Gia smiled and lost her irritation. Gia concludes that Erick is the same as her. I agree more with the third option.
"Well, is this you?" Ask Erick.
Again Erick just nodded his head.
*****
The time has shown at 22:15 pm when Erick's car arrived in front of Gia's parents' house.
"You be careful when you go home. I'm going in first." Gia told Erick.
"Yes, be careful too!"
"What? People come in front of the house too!"
"Yes I'm afraid my future wife is scuffed. Hehe"
"haha. Thanks yeah. You're going to work tomorrow, right?"
"Yes, it's been 3 days since I picked you up. Stack my work. Haha"
Gia looked at Erick in wonder.
"You're not fired, Yang? Most holidays are that?"
"Almost. But it can still be prevented!" Erick replied while grinningly pointing at his row of teeth.
"Tomorrow I'll pick you up again!" he added.
"Why again? You're not tired?"
"Udah come! I'm not tired of meeting you. Or are you tired of seeing me?"
Gia shook her head slowly. Then pull Erick's nose.
"I'm tired of meeting you especially if you're gini!" Gia answered who was greeted with a apologetic voice from Erick to let go of his nose.
"Udah already, Yang. You know my nose can't be squeezed out later I'm the flu" Erick protested while stroking his nose that had escaped from Gia's hand.
"Huu...So don't be restless" Gia replied as she sprinkled her mouth.
"Well, I'll go in first!" added Gia while wanting to open the car door.
"Which?"
"Hmm?" Gia.
Without saying anything Erick covered both of Gia's cheeks with his hand then Erick landed a few seconds kiss on Gia's forehead.
Gia was stunned for a while, until she finally realized when Erick cleared his throat.
"Jude get in there!" Erick said later.
Gia smiled and nodded. Then decided to enter the house with feelings that could not be explained her happy ranking.
After finishing cleaning up, Gia intends to ask Erick's whereabouts whether he has arrived at his Apartment or not.
Gia opened her phone, apparently there were already some missed calls and some messages. Gia just realized her phone was in silent mode. For fear that someone might call when he was at Erick's parents' house this afternoon.
Gia ignores the average call from Micah and some unknown numbers. Maybe the boutique employee will ask Gia about the design.
Gia opened the message, there were some messages.
First from Micah.
Mikhail :
It's hard to call you!
Mikhail :
I'm waiting for you to come back! Just soon! I have something to ask you!
Mikhail :
Gia, is it true that you are going to marry Erick? We're getting engaged to Gia! Don't be crazy!
Gia shrieked her temple after reading Micah's message. He switched the next order. Lyras.
Lyra Widia's :
How'd it go, Gi? I doain hope you quickly get the good news to me!
Gia smiled reading Lyra's message. He remembered what happened at Erick's house this afternoon.
The last from Arga.
Arga Danu :
Seriously, you want to get married?
Arga Danu :
Why so fast?
Arga Danu :
Does that mean we can't see each other again?
Suddenly Gia felt dizzy. He stared blankly at the ceiling. I don't know what's in his mind.
Gia saw his phone ringing, Erick's phone.
"God I forgot to ask her position!" Inner Gia.
Gia immediately shifted the green button.
"Yes?"
"I'm late, you rest. What a beautiful dream!"
"Thankful deh. I just wanted to nanya-in where you were. Yaudah I slept. Hye!"
"Bye dear"
The call ends, and Gia decides to go to sleep.
Only a moment later did Gia close her eyes, Gia's phone rang again. Without seeing who was calling, Gia raised the call still with her eyes closed.
"Why else, Rick?" Gia replied in a lethargic voice.
"I'm not Erick! I'm Arga!" Replied Arga in a flat voice.
Hearing that immediately Gia sat down and read the name on her phone screen. Surely Arga called.
Gia hit her forehead slowly.
After a few moments of silence. Gia tried to make a sound.
"What's up, Ga?"
"Why did you read my message but you didn't answer!'
"Emm it-"
"Gia, do I mean nothing to you?"
Degs..
Hearing Arga's revelation makes Gia close her eyes to think what to answer.
"Ga, i..."
"I think once you're open about your problems the same I it means I mean something to you, Gi! Replying to my messages is hard for you!" The words from Arga's mouth were spicy in Gia's ears.
"Ga, that's not what I meant. You mean to me. You've helped me a few times. And you understand my problem. I think we're friends after all that!"
"Friends? Haha"
Gia could not believe hearing Arga's loud voice from across the street. Several times he blinked his eyes to digest what Arga meant.
"Gia, I honestly wish I was more than a friend to you. But looking at the reality, it seems that it's too late."
"What do you mean, Ga? I'm sorry Ga, I never seem to give you any hope or promises for our relationship to be more than just friends!"
"Yes, I understand! I was wrong. Sorry to interrupt your break! Good night!"
The call ended by Arga as if reluctant to hear what other statements Gia will say.
Gia breathed a rough breath. He ruffled his own hair.
"Why is Arga like this? Is it true Erick said that I was close to him and I gave him hope?" Inner Gia.
Gia decided to continue her delayed sleep.
