A white dress hanging on the front door of the walk in closet stole Renjani's attention when she just entered the room. There is a sticky note attached to the front of the dress. Renjani pulled out the sticky note and read something written there.
White dress for the beautiful Mbak Rere!
Mr. Dayat will drop off Ms. Rere while I pick up Mas Kelana.
Don't forget the beautiful dress!
"Kok didn't say there was an event?" Renjani grumbled, she had wanted to lay her body on a soft mattress after a day sitting in front of the laptop. But due to the note that Yana left behind, Renjani is forced to go to the bathroom to clean up.
Renjani rubbed outstretches on her hands and feet because the dress she was about to wear showed her shoulders and along her legs. Renjani feels insecure every time she walks with Kelana, which is why she does all her best for this. Kelana has a lot of fans out there, as Renjani reads the comments, the fans say he is not good enough to be next to Kelana.
Renjani knew reading the comments was not healthy for her. However it keeps her motivated to do even better, proving that she is not too bad to be Kelana's wife.
"Well, Yana is ready for everything." Renjani is flabbergasted to see a make-up tool on her dresser. Renjani believes it is a new make-up tool because on an ordinary day she does not wear much make-up. Renjani is always amazed because Yana can complete her work very much, in addition to taking care of the needs of Kelana, Yana even had time to prepare clothes and make-up tools.
Renjani stared at her reflection through the mirror. He felt a reddish scar at the base of his neck. It's been almost a week, but Kelana's kiss is still on Renjani's neck. That makes Renjani must always cover it with concealer.
Renjani thinks what if he kissed Kelana to leave a mark. People will be gossiping about him.
At first Renjani apply the cushion on his face slowly. He wants his makeup to look natural, don't men like makeup like that. Renjani saw a lot of make-up tutorials on YouTube, it really helps her to have a lot of references if you want to apply makeup.
Finally Renjani polish her lips with lip tint and then spray the spray setting so that the makeup is more durable.
Eat during the journey.
Renjani read the note on the nightstand. There is a transparent lunch box containing two slices of bread.
"Make a jar." Re njani grabbed the box and came out.
Dayat was waiting at the door of the apartment. Dayat had read Kelana's message about the place they were going to tonight.
Renjani is ready to wear a white off shoulder dress with a ruffle accent on her chest.
"Where is Sir?" Tanya Renjani on Dayat sitting in the steering chair.
"So Mas Kelana was in the studio, maybe now again on the road."
"Oh." Renjani doesn't know where they're going. Renjani does not want to ask a lot of questions because this is his job, which is to fulfill the will of Kelana. Renjani was about to send a message to Kelana but her phone was low bat and she left her charger at the office. Renjani will borrow Kelana's property later.
Renjani opens the lunchbox on her lap, "Pak Dayat wants to eat bread?" He handed the box to Dayat.
"No need to ma'am." Reject polite Dayat.
Renjani was amazed at Dayat because he was very professional about his work. Renjani never saw Dayat eat or play mobile while driving. Kelana is lucky to find Dayat and Yana in her life.
Two slices of chicken chrisp and vegetable lettuce and tomato and cucumber were all gone in an instant. Renjani is hungry and two slices of bread are not enough for her. Renjani hopes that there will be plenty of food in the place where he will go.
"That's Kelana." Renjani pointed to Kelana who just got off the car. He also went down immediately without waiting for Dayat to open the door for him.
Kelana's smile broadened to see Renjani walking up to her. Kelana's eyes twinkled at Renjani's appearance today. The dress that Renjani wears makes her body look taller and slimmer.
"You're so pretty." Praise Kelana, he rubbed the hair of Renjani that was broken. Not without reason, Renjani can not do her hair. Being left unraveled was the right solution for him.
"Well, wasn't he born?" Renjani tried to put on a flat face even though her heart had wanted to jump out because she was praised by Kelana.
Laughing, "i don't know, but since I first met, you've been this pretty."
Renjani sneered, why Kelana is now good at racing. Though Kelana's attitude used to be very cold towards Renjani.
Renjani holds Kelana's arm when he wants to enter a building that is not too big, maybe only enough to accommodate a hundred people.
"Well." Renjani turns her head to see Arya's name at the entrance. Renjani just realized that the decoration of the building was like a wedding reception. "This?"
"Yes, this is Arya's wedding reception."
"Kok you know?" Renjani gawked, she had no intention of coming to Arya's wedding even she had already thrown away her invitation card. Renjani also did not tell Kelana about this.
"I saw the invitation card before you threw it away so I asked Yana to prepare clothes for you so that we could come together."
Renjani was still dumbfounded as Kelana pulled her hand into the venue. Renjani does not know what to say to Kelana but this time the man has saved her life. Kelana's existence makes Renjani no longer look sad. Not that Renjani has not been able to forget Arya but he does not accept the treatment of Arya in the past.
The two women standing near the entrance shrieked stifled when they saw Kelana. They did not know that a public figure like Kelana was also invited to this event.
"Please fill out the guest list." The woman's voice trembled, how not—Kelana was right in front of her eyes.
"Let me write." Renjani writes his name and Kelana at once and then affixes the signature.
"Eee sorry, I'm a fan of Kelana, can we take a photo together?" Ask the woman hesitated.
Renjani glanced at Kelana, she was also waiting for an answer.
"Can." Kelana nodded.
The two women immediately stood to the left and right of Kelana. Renjani becomes an impromptu photographer when one of the women gives her phone to Renjani.
It seems that from now on in addition to practicing makeup and cooking Renjani must learn photography. Wouldn't it be fun to do new things? Renjani will never be bored.
"Thank you!" Say them to Kelana after successfully getting some photos.
The presence of Kelana and Renjani stole the attention of other guests. Again Renjani should get used to this.
"Not the Russian girl?" Renjani looks towards the banquet where Arya and his wife stand to greet the congratulating guests. Renjani did not have time to read the name of Arya's wife on the invitation letter. Renjani thinks Arya will marry the girl of Russian descent but it turns out the bride who stands next to Arya is a totok Indonesian woman.
"You still like it?" Kelana looked at Renjani.
Renjani shook her head, how could she still like Arya while the man beside her at the moment is Kelana. He cannot be compared to Arya. They are like the earth and the sky.
"But why are you hesitating?"
"I'm not ready to see him." Renjani is afraid that Arya will come back to humiliate her as she used to when she catches Arya wet with another woman. Arya says Renjani is just an ordinary girl who does not have any advantages, Renjani deserves to be cheated.
Arya's sentence flashed back in Renjani's mind. He hopes Arya will not demean him now especially in front of Kelana.
"You're perfect tonight, walk confidently."
Renjani smiled blandly, she was indeed wearing nice clothes and shoes and even make-up attached to her face was an expensive product. But Renjani is still Renjani, he has nothing to make him confident.
"Congratulations." Renjani reaches out to Arya.
Arya is stunned, she barely recognizes Renjani if she doesn't see him up close. Renjani has changed a lot since the last time they met three years ago. Arya admits that Renjani is getting beautiful.
"You alone?"
"My husband's name." Renjani glanced at Kelana behind her, "known, Kelana."
"So you're actually married to this violinist named Kelana, I think it's just a rumor."
"Have you lived abroad all this time?" Ask Renjani.
"Not that," Arya stuttered, she just did not expect if the Renjani she used to waste turned out to be able to marry a famous violinist like Kelana. How did they meet?
"Congratulations on your marriage." Kelana shakes Arya's hand.
"Ah thank you." Arya is less likely to see Kelana, she hopes that Renjani does not tell Kelana that she is her ex-boyfriend.
"Congratulations." Renjani congratulates Arya's wife.
"You're Arya's friend in college, huh?"
"Not." Renjani doesn't even know where Arya went to college, nor does she care. "We just know."
They took photos together several times. When getting off the mop, many invited guests asked Kelana to take pictures.
Renjani was about to step away, she better wait for Kelana in front. It looks like the photo session will last a long time.
"Don't go." Kelana holds Renjani's hand, they are a couple—the fans will probably question the whereabouts of Renjani.
"I'm ashamed."
"Don't waste your makeup to hide, smile." Kelana embraces Renjani's waist and smiles towards the camera.
Rejani reflex smiles as the camera leads to him and Kelana as well as several people on their right and left.
Kelana ended the photo session because it would interfere with the Arya event.
They immediately got in the car before the crowd returned.
******
Tonight Kelana wants to cook for Kelana because they did not have time to eat at Arya's wedding. They were only there for about 10 minutes. In such a short time, they were enough to shock Arya.
"Sit down." Kelana pulls up a chair that is on the kitchen island for Renjani while she cooks.
"What do you cook?" Renjani propped her chin by hand, this was the first time Kelana cooked, Renjani could not wait to eat it.
"Fried rice." Kelana put on an apron first before removing the ingredients from the refrigerator.
"I helped you." Renjani can't just sit still during Kelana cooking.
"Cool the rice first."
"okay." Renjani take a plate of rice, he said fried rice would be better if using cold rice. Renjani will usually eat fried rice in the morning if there is leftover rice yesterday. Renjani is sure Kelana never ate rice yesterday.
Kelana season chicken breast with salt, paprika powder, garlic powder, pepper and olive oil.
Kelana hands are so skillful at cutting onions, garlic and peppers. He looks like a professional chef.
Renjani is amazed, now she wonders what Kelana can not do. Even the cooking ability of Kelana is far above Renjani.
"Your fried rice seasoning is a little different huh."
"It's special fried rice."
"Usually if it's special use two eggs."
"I used chicken breast for his protein."
Kelana heats butter on a skillet and roasts the seasoned chicken.
"That smells good." Renjani is getting impatient to eat their dinner.
After grilling two pieces of chicken breast, Kelana used the former grill to saute seasoning and rice.
Renjani put two dishes near the frying pan. They split the rice in half on their plates. Kelana adds pieces of avocado and roasted chicken to Renjani dishes. Since Kelana did not like avocados, she simply put chicken breast on her plate. Lastly it gives the feeling of lime on top of avocado to make it fresher.
"Gee!" Renjani is fascinated by the appearance of their dinner. When Kelana said she would cook fried rice, Renjani thought it was just plain fried rice. But Kelana always has a high appetite including food.
It's the first time Renjani has seen fried rice with roasted chicken and avocado, it's quite strange.
"Try." Kelana let Renjani try his cooking first.
Renjani devours a spoonful of rice and pieces of avocado at once.
"Well, that's delicious." Renjani widened, he did not expect that the fried rice would be this delicious.
Kelana smiled satisfied to hear Renjani's comments. He also eats with gourmand. Cuisine itself is always good because Kelana can adjust to his taste.
"Have you been to cooking school?" Seeing the results of the cuisine, Renjani suspects Kelana had a cooking course.
Kelana did not immediately answer, actually when with Elara they used to often cook together in the restaurant owned by papa Elara. At that time Elara taught many cooking techniques to Kelana. That's why Kelana became adept at making various foods.
"No, I'm just a music school." Kelana finally replied, he did not want to mention Elara because it would damage the appetite Renjani.
"I borrowed your charger." Renjani just remembered if he had not charged his phone. "Charger I missed at the office."
"Wear it, it's in the nightstand."
Renjani moved from there with her phone that had run out of battery.
Renjani opens the first drawer of the nightstand looking for Kelana's charger. The first drawer is empty, Renjani opens the second drawer and finds the charger. Renjani takes out the charger and plugs it into the socket. After making sure his phone was filled, Renjani was about to close the drawer again but he found the phone and photo album there.
"Don't Re, it's Kelana's." Renjani warns himself but his hands move as if taking a photo album that is not too thick.
Renjani's eyes heat up like pricked needles when looking at the first page. Those are pictures of Kelana and Elara. Most of the background is music studio.
My girlfriend Elara got the award for the third time.
Elara is seen holding a trophy and smiling broadly at the camera.
Renjani opens the next page.
My boyfriend made the first song in 2015
The photo of Elara playing the piano, her wavy hair draped on her back.
Cooking cauliflower rice on a sunny afternoon.
There is a photo of cauliflower rice with pieces of avocado and brownish chicken. It's similar to Kelana's cooking tonight.
Renjani smiled bitterly, it turns out Kelana is good at cooking because she often did it with Elara first. Renjani looked up trying to swallow her tears back.
A song for my girlfriend, Elara Adaline. Dusk Meet Love, it was the most beautiful twilight of my life where we first met.
There is a photo album that reads Dusk Meet Love with a silhouette of men and women who are kissing.
A drop of clear crystal fell on the photo and the next drop quickly followed. Renjani realized that she had looked too far.
"Re, see you?" A voice sounded in front of the door.
Renjani immediately wiped her rough tears and put the album back in the drawer.
"Yes!" Renjani half screaming.
"Old, I don't think I've met." Kelana standing in front of the room door, if he has not met he can help Renjani look for him.
"Yes I bales WA Jesi just now." The lie of Renjani, he stepped past Kelana back into the dining room.
"Are you okay?" Kelana saw the change in the look of Renjani's face after coming out of the room.
"Why indeed?" Renjani gobbled up his food again even though it no longer tastes good. The fried rice suddenly felt bland.
"You still think of Arya?"
Renjani shook her head, not even using the slightest to think of Arya.
