Love In Sketches
The Surprise that Failed

The fingers trembled as they saw two red lines slowly appearing on a testpack.

"Two lines? That means I'm pregnant?" Lirih is a young girl who is holding the testpack.

"No way... How'this?" Instantly he panicked to realize he was now two-bodied.

"Calm down first." Said a young man who was beside her.

"Quiet down? How can I calm down? Didn't you see that the results were positive?" He screams with a trembling voice.

"Our parents will be angry and disappointed... Why do we have to do that? We should have been able to hold back..." Regretfully. Her tears were unstoppable, in an instant the young girl had already sobbed. The young man who was his lover immediately hugged him.

"All will be well. I'll take responsibility. We're getting married." The young man tried to calm the lover who was still sobbing.

"What about our parents? Are they gonna let us get married?" There was a look of fear on the girl's face.

My name is Arya Firaz, I am 26 years old. I can say I am quite successful in my career. I have a coffee shop and also a restaurant as a result of working with some of my friends. Although the place is not luxurious, but I'm already quite proud.

I am the first of two children. My sister's name is Andika Farzan. He was 18 years old, we were a long way off. He just graduated High School. I also have a mother I love very much, and my father died when I finished high school.

Since then, I have been the backbone of my family. Dad did get a severance from where he worked first. But it was used for my sister's school fees and also our daily meals when my income was not enough.

I went to college while working. Work anything, until finally I have enough capital and work with my friends to open my own business.

It was not easy, but with patience and earnestness finally after a few years of effort we succeeded and had several branches of the capital. And after some time, we decided to share fairly the results of our hard work.

I get one coffee shop and one restaurant, the other the same. We now manage each of our businesses. But even so, we continue to make good friends.

Turning to romance, I have a lover named Megalicha Audrey. She was my first love. Mega is a very beautiful woman, her body is tall and proportional. She works as a model and is currently in Paris to pursue her career.

We started to love when we were in college. Mega had always aspired to be a famous model, and once there was a chance he just took it. When there are agencies that offer to pursue a career abroad.

Inevitably I have to let go of him, even though I want him to stay in Indonesia and start a business with me. But I don't want to be selfish, I also want Mega to achieve his goals.

"Arya, don't be sad. It's only temporary. Once I become a famous model, I will come back to you. I just want to feel what it's like to walk the catwalk with millions of eyes looking in awe at me." Said Mega at that time. Before he left for Paris to pursue his career.

"You believe me, don't you? I will always take care of our love. I'm not gonna betray you." Mega's promise to me. Actually what I'm afraid of isn't that. Because I know Mega loves me, and I love her so much. What I was afraid of Mega so forget themselves if he was famous later. But I had no choice but to support his decision.

But after a few years, Mega never returned. Even though our communication went well. I finally plan to surprise him. A surprise that I had planned so thoroughly over the past few months.

I came to Paris and intended to propose to him there, in front of the Eiffel Tower. A place famous for its romance. Also, I'll marry her soon so that Mega doesn't have to go abroad again.

But what do I get when I get there?

Paris, France

A tall man wearing a black long coat was seen standing at the door of a white-painted apartment. The air in Paris felt so cold for him, but now it was not winter. This was the least he liked, the cold air. But for the sake of the girl he loved he was willing to go to this country.

Ting Tong's.

Arya presses the doorbell of Mega's apartment. The smile has not been off his face since. While rubbing his two palms that felt cold, he imagined how his lover's expression would be when he saw her who was suddenly there. Mega will be very surprised and happy.

He had also prepared a bouquet of Mega's favorite white roses, as well as a ring that he kept in his shirt pocket. Arya did know where Mega lived while in Paris, although she had never been there before. Because Mega who used to give the address.

But after a while of waiting, the door did not open.

Is Mega not in her apartment? Or is he working? Arya wondered in her heart.

The man looked at the circular watch on his left wrist. But it's not Mega's working hours, he thought.

Arya breathed heavily. He pressed the bell many times, but there was no response. A smile also receded from his face. The young man chose to leave from there, then went down the elevator and stepped up to head for the lobby. It's better to wait there, maybe Mega is out. Arya also accidentally did not contact Mega because of her intention to give a surprise.

But his steps suddenly came to a halt, as his pair of neutrals caught the shadow of someone he knew very well. A tall girl with long brown hair and allowed to unravel.

The mega!

But why was the girl in the arms of a foreign man? The position of the two of them leaning against the side of the wall was so intimate. And it seems that no one cares about their existence, other than Arya.

Arya slowly stepped closer, she could hear the conversation of the two people. Luckily they speak English, not French. So Arya could understand what they were saying.

"Audrey, you're so pretty. I really admire your beauty. You're the prettiest woman I've ever known." Said the bule man, you can guess the man was far above Mega. He saw some wrinkles on his face.
