Love and Marriage Contract
Carina Disorder

Bianca and Arga are still in the lobby. Arga enjoyed the food that Bianca brought while occasionally feeding Bianca, they also seemed engrossed in chatting with laughter that was heard several times.

After finishing the meal, Arga then invited Bianca into his room.

"I don't want to bother you, I just want to take this food and go home" Bianca said, refusing to go into Arga's room.

"Then we go home together, I can finish my work at home" Arga replied

"really? but what about Mr. Dodi?"

"Let Mr. Dodi go home by himself" answered Arga, then moved from his seat and extended his hand to Bianca.

Bianca smiles and receives Arga's hand and leaves the office with Arga to return home.

"Did I interrupt your meeting with a client?" bianca asked Arga while they were on their way home.

"No, but why did you suddenly bring me dinner?" arga answered and asked.

"These few days you've been so fucked up, I just don't want the problems you're dealing with to make you negligent to take care of your health" Bianca replied.

"Is it because of the problems I'm facing you've been so considerate of me?" asked Arga with a smile.

"Did I do something wrong? should I not do this again?" bianca asked.

"No, that's not what I mean, you can come to the office whenever you want, after all it will also make a lot of people see how our relationship is," Arga replied.

"As long as you know Arga, I don't come to the office to make people see how I'm related to you, I'm just worried about you, but it looks like you're thinking about something else that's different to what I'm thinking, like," bianca said in her heart.

"Thank you for caring so much for me Bianca, I really feel grateful that you're beside me" Arga said with her eyes fixed on Bianca as she stopped at a red light.

Bianca just smiled without saying anything.

"I promise that after all this is done I'll give you whatever you want, whether it's a vacation, stuff or anything else you want" Arga said.

"really? are you serious?" asked Bianca who was suddenly excited.

"Of course," replied Arga without hesitation.

"Please promise not to deny it!" bianca said as she extended her little finger at Arga.

"You can hold my word Bianca, I'm not the kind of guy who likes to break promises!" reply Arga who just focus on driving, ignoring Bianca's little finger.

"Please promise me Arga!" bianca said a little forcefully.

Arga smiled faintly and hooked his little finger on Bianca's little finger.

"I promise, after all the company's problems are over, I will obey all your wishes" Arga said.

"Remember Arga, you can't break your promise or your little finger will be cut off from your hand!" bianca said, releasing her little finger from Arga's.

"Hahaha.... Could it be?" tanya Arga laughed at Bianca's speech.

"Of course, that's what you've always told me since I was a kid" Bianca replied.

"It's just so you don't break your promise, Bianca" Arga said.

"But I've actually seen the real events of Arga, you must not believe it before you see it for yourself!" Bianca.

"Hahaha... You're so childish, what's the matter you're seeing?"

"When I was a kid there was a toy dealer who was always passing by my house, one day he promised me a new toy that he would sell only to me, but it turns out he sold it to the other kids too!" bianca begins her story.

"Then his little finger broke up for reneging on his promise to you?" ask Arga guess.

"Just like, one week later he went back to selling in front of my house and his little finger was completely gone, mom said it was because she reneged on her promise to me" Bianca explained.

"Hahaha..you're so funny, you can believe such a thing!" arga laughed at Bianca's story.

"It's real Arga, really!" bianca tries to convince Arga.

"Did you believe that until now?" ask Arga.

"I know it's ridiculous and absurd, but I still believe it" replied Bianca.

"But have you ever broken your promise?" ask Arga.

"Mmmmm....."

Bianca stopped her speech. Actually, she is not the type of woman who likes to break her promise, but if Arga asks if he ever reneged on his promise then Bianca can not answer no.

In reality Bianca reneged on her promise to Bara. Bianca has promised to wait for Bara, but fate makes Bianca must marry Arga which means Bianca can not keep her promise to Bara.

"I'm guessing, you must have reneged on your promise, but look at your little finger, it's still intact isn't it?" said Arga disperse Bianca's daydreams.

Bianca smiled by looking at the two little fingers on her right and left hand.

"My fingers are still intact, maybe because they know if I renege on a promise because I have to, not because of my own wishes," Bianca said.

"What promise do you break, Bianca?" ask Arga.

"Promise to wait for Brother Bara" answered Bianca with a look at Arga.

Arga sighed and then refocused on the highway before him.

"Do you promise of your own will?" ask Arga.

"Sister Bara asked me to wait for her and I promised to wait for Brother Bara, but it turns out fate forced me to marry you" Bianca explained.

"What does the word 'waiting' mean to you? why do you feel like you broke your promise because you married me?" ask Arga.

"Waiting for what Brother Bara means is waiting for him to come back and before he returns I must not have any relationship with any man" Bianca replied.

"Is that really what I mean? maybe Bara had other intentions!"

"But Brother Bara said he would tell me everything after he came back, so I had to wait for him until he told me everything" Bianca said.

"Say what?" ask Arga.

"Now, Brother Bara didn't say it for sure, but what I had in mind was probably that Brother Bara would express his feelings to me after he came back, that's why he asked me to wait for him" Bianca replied.

"What if what you think is wrong?" ask Arga.

Bianca fell silent, remembering the ring Bara gave her.

"Sister Bara did not say it directly, but from the ring he gave me I'm sure that Bara's brother actually likes me, too" Bianca said in her heart.

"Hope that is too high will make it even more painful when you fall Bianca" said Arga.

"But that hope is what always inspires me Arga, without hope it might not be as pleasant as my days have been" Bianca replied.

"Although many problems come, but that hope is what gives me the strength to keep fighting" continued Bianca.

Arga only sighed harshly without saying anything. In his heart there was a sense of annoyance that made him want to be angry but tried to hold it, because he himself did not understand why he wanted to be angry at that time.

"It's still very early in the morning and you're leaving for the office?" ask Bianca to Arga.

"Yes, Daffa has gone abroad, so I have a lot to do on my own" replied Arga.

Bianca just nodded her head slowly without saying anything.

"Is there anything you want to tell me? you don't usually wake up this early" asked Arga, who was returned with a headband by Bianca.

"I'll be home late again so there's no need to wait for me, you can get sick if you sleep too late every day" Arga said.

"But can I still come to the office?" ask Bianca.

"Of course you can Bianca, don't forget to bring me good food" replied Arga as she patted Bianca's head gently and walked away, out of the house to leave for the office immediately.

Bianca only smiled faintly at Arga who had already walked away from her.

"The attitude is indeed very sweet although sometimes very annoying," said Bianca with a smile.

Time passed, the clock had shown at 10 noon when Bianca invited Mr. Dodi to take her to Lola's boarding house.

Previously Bianca had informed Lola and had brought the souvenirs she bought while she was on vacation with Arga and her parents.

Arriving at Lola's boarding place, Bianca immediately gave the souvenirs she brought to Lola.

"Waaahhh thank you Bianca, you are indeed the best" Lola said as she hugged the spoiled Bianca.

Bianca just smiled and took herself to sit on the edge of Lola's bed.

"I heard from Arga, Daffa has gone abroad, do you know?" bianca said at once asking.

"Yes, I know, he told me a few hours before he left, which is very annoying," Lola replied with a face that was suddenly upset at the thought of it.

"Are you upset that he went abroad all of a sudden?" ask Bianca.

"No," Lola replied briefly.

"But you look very upset Lola" said Bianca.

"I just don't want to talk about it, Bianca" Lola replied.

"Alright but I hope you're not angry at Arga for allowing him to go abroad all of a sudden" Bianca said.

"Can't Arga make Daffa come home soon? he told me if he couldn't be sure when he'd be home!"

"Lolais.... Daffa just left yesterday, have you missed him so much?" reply Bianca who deliberately teased Lola.

"That's not what I mean, at least I know when he'll be back" Lola said.

"Daffa will definitely contact you if he finishes his work there" Bianca replied.

Lola just sighed without saying anything.

"It looks like you're getting closer to Daffa" Bianca said.

"He's very kind to me, Bianca, but take it easy I won't open my heart easily before I'm sure he's done getting rid of his bad habits of playing girls" Lola said.

"Good then, as a playboy he is indeed very good at attracting women, so do not make yourself easy for him to approach" said Bianca who was met with a nod of the head by Lola.

Elsewhere, Arga is busy with her work. When he had just walked out of the meeting room and was about to enter his room, he was so surprised to see Karina who was already in front of his room.

"What are you doing here Karina?" asked Arga while pulling Karina's hand away from her room.

"I want to see you, can't I?" reply Karina.

"You can't come here all of a sudden like this Karina, I....."

"Why? are you afraid Bianca will see me?" karina asked to cut off Arga's words.

"Not only that, what if mom or dad saw you here? they'll be so mad at you Karina!"

"I don't care, Aunt Nadine has scolded me too often for no reason, so I'm immune to receiving Aunt Nadine's anger" Karina replied.

"You can't be like this Karina, Bian will also definitely scold you if he finds out you're here!" said Arga.

"What's wrong with you, Arga? why do you seem to dislike my arrival? am I bothering you so much? weren't you the one who approached me first even after you married Bianca?"

"Karina stop, don't make people misunderstand," Arga said as she pulled Karina's hand, taking Karina to a quieter place.

"Take off me Arga, I'm not here to beg your attention, nor do I want to snatch you from Bianca!"

"I know, but what you're saying can make other people misunderstand me and I don't want that to happen" Arga said.

"Now tell me what did you mean by coming here?" arga asked.

"I just wanted to meet you because I was so bored at home" Karina replied.

"Bored at home? what about your job?" ask Arga.

"I've resigned for a long time, Bian asked me to resign," replied Karina who made Arga sigh long.

"What exactly makes you follow Bian's words, Karina? can't you think clearly before you follow Bian's request?"

"She's my fiance Arga and I love her, so it's only natural that I follow what she wants!" reply Karina.

"But she's too in control of your life Karina, don't you realize it?"

"What did he do because he loved me" Karina replied.

"Alright, whatever your relationship with Bian is, but surely you can't come here like this Karina" Arga said.

"Then how can I meet you? aren't we friends? can't friends see each other?" ask Karina.

"Of course you can, but unlike this, what you're doing now will only create new problems, not only in my relationship with Bianca, but also in your relationship with Bian!"

"Why are you suddenly so concerned about your relationship with Bianca, Arga? is your love so great for her?" ask Karina.

"He's......."

Arga stopped his speech as he looked at Bianca who was walking towards his room. Instantly Arga opened the emergency door behind Karina and pushed Karina in.

Karina smiled faintly thinking that Arga would do something to her in a place that was impossible for that person to go through

"You can go through the emergency stairs, please don't show yourself in front of Bianca" Arga said, closing the door and leaving Karina.

Instantly Karina was speechless with emotions filling her at that moment

"You're totally outrageous Arga, if it wasn't for me still needing you I wouldn't have done this stupid thing!" karina said with annoyance.
