Married by Accident
Something stiffens

A jet-black long-haired woman was seriously making something on her desk. His face was covered in a mask, only his pair of eyes could be seen glaring sharply at something on the table. He stirred the resin liquid and poured it on a violin-shaped mold. To beautify the appearance of the hanger he plucked a pink Azalea flower that he planted in a pot.

Karalyn, the name is engraved on a hanger of frozen resin. He wanted to make another one for his son, Kelana.

"What did Mama do?" A 6-year-old boy barges into Karalyn's study, wondering what kept his mom in the study for so long. However after smelling the pungent scent he hurriedly closed his nose.

"Wear the mask, Kelana." Karalyn took one mask and put it on Kelana. He laughed because the mask was too big on Kelana's tiny face.

"What did Mama do?" Kelana repeated her question.

"Mama made a keychain for you, look at this one with Mama." Karalyn showed me her keychain.

"Mama's got a name, mine?"

"Even if you have no name but Mama added Azalea flowers in it, beautiful right?"

"Why should Azalea flower?"

"The flowers of Azalea symbolize beauty and affection so Mama gave this to Kelana."

"How long will he be frozen?"

"We wait until tomorrow." Karalyn tidied up Kelana's hair which was a little messy.

"Ma, I'm going to go swimming with Papa tomorrow." Kelana had been asking for it since a week ago but her papa was always busy. But Kelana is happy because finally tomorrow she can go swimming with her papa.

"Okay, if so Mama ready to stock up for you and Papa tomorrow."

"Mama, next time let's go swimming together."

"Okay, baby, I'll set the time."

******

Along the way from the apartment to the office, Kelana told me about the keychain. At that time he felt guilty for eliminating it while swimming. It was a relief because after a dozen years he could finally see back his mama's key chain. It turns out that it was with Renjani.

Destiny is so magical that Kelana and Renjani meet after a brief incident in the past. In the end Renjani married someone who had saved her first.

Renjani stared at Kelana still can't believe Kelana was the one who saved her first. Renjani does not remember the face of the boy or Kelana has indeed changed a lot after a dozen years passed. But one thing Renjani remembers, she felt something in common when the boy pressed his lips together to give an artificial breath, it felt the same as when Kelana kissed him.

"You want me to convince you?" Kelana brought her face closer to Renjani.

"I'm not not sure, but—"

"Well, focus on driving and never look back." Kelana said to Yana who was in the steering chair.

"Good Mas." Yana won't look over or see the spy over.

Renjani does not know what Kelana wants to do but before she thinks, Kelana has given her answer.

Renjani's pair of eyes widened as Kelana landed a kiss on her lips. Renjani was pushed back until her head almost hit the window but Kelana swiftly positioned her hands behind Renjani's head.

The sight of the two locked for a while before Renjani closed her eyes. Renjani is unable to return Kelana's gaze, she can go crazy if she does that. Renjani can lose their senses even though they are on their way to the office.

The car felt cramped, Renjani took a deep breath and exhaled after Kelana ended the link between them.

"Look, from the beginning the lips were mine." Kelana said proudly. He has kissed Renjani since he was 7 years old. Although in fact it cannot be called a kiss, clearly their lips are stuck together.

"Have you forgotten that I ever had a boyfriend?" Syndir Renjani after he managed to catch his breath again.

"But I'm sure you guys never kiss."

Renjani mendelik, why Kelana knows about it. He and Arya dated for about 6 months and during that time they only held hands no more. That's why when Renjani falls over Kelana's body in the library, she calls it her first kiss.

"Sokot know." Desis Renjani's.

"I can feel it."

"What are you paranormal about?"

"Which psychic could feel that the woman had kissed or not?"

Renjani lost the debate, folding her hands in front of her chest and throwing her eyes out the window even though she didn't really see anything out there. Renjani simply did not want Kelana to see his current expression.

The car stopped in front of Asmara Publishing's office, Renjani draped her briefcase and opened the door.

"Don't you kiss me first?"

Since when did Renjani have to kiss Kelana first before leaving.

"There's Yana."

"Where not to look."

Renjani stays out of the car and shuts it down immediately.

"Re, are you going?" He leaned his head through the car window.

Manda and Eve greeted Renjani at the doorstep while the others were already on the second floor. They just waited for Maia to start the meeting.

"Bak Rere ate what, his lipstick is so big?" Eve pointed at Renjani's lips.

Renjani hurriedly searched for a mirror in panic, this must have been because of Kelana just now. Renjani should be able to keep Kelana from doing that when they want to go to work.

Renjani's face flushed like a tomato withstanding embarrassment. He hoped that no one would think about this even if they were not children. They are grown up and understand enough about this.

"Ah this, eat fried food just now." Renjani rubbed her lips with a wet tissue and then applied her lipstick again.

Renjani played Cloudy Night's unfinished song last night. As per Kelana's suggestion, Renjani brought the album to the office. Listening to music makes them more relaxed.

"Is that her new album Kak Kelana?" Manda peeked out from behind Renjani.

"Yes." Yeah." Renjani reverses.

"I really want to have a Love Season album but the savings are not enough."

"If so for a while you listen to the songs here first, after payday you can buy the album." Renjani suddenly remembers if she had a Kelana photocard. "You don't want this, I don't know who to give this to." He pulled a photocard out of his bag.

Manda turned away in disbelief as Renjani was about to give her the precious photocard.

"Mbak Rere is serious?"

"Seriously." Renjani nodded twice reassuring Manda.

Manda thanked him many times, even his eyes glazed over for getting the thing. Manda will always work for Asmara Publishing no matter the amount of salary, getting the photocard makes him happy compared to the salary.

"Well, on Kak Kelana's album is there a photocard of Mbak?" Eve goes with nimbrung.

"Yes." Yeah."

"This is like a K-Pop album that I have at the house of Mbak, rarely Indonesian artists who include a photocard on the album or even Kak Kelana be the only."

Renjani only smiled faintly because she also did not know about it. He is not a fan of Kelana.

Renjani steps in her chair and Manda and Eve. They started preparing the meeting materials today.

"I've designed three Meet Sunshine covers." Jeno showed three cover designs she had made to Renjani.

"Well, you're good at pictures." Renjani was amazed to see Jeno's pictures.

"Which do you think Rere's the best?"

"I like number two, the base color is yellow and it describes Meet Sunshine really."

"I also like number two."

"We just have to ask for Maia's opinion just as make a vote on Instagram, we listen to the opinions of the readers."

"Good Ma'am." Jeno went back to her desk.

"Fatan has determined the synopsis to be listed on the back cover?" Renjani looks towards Fatan's desk.

"Already Ma'am, I'll send it to Mbak Rere's email."

"okay." Renjani turned her eyes towards Ervin who was busy with his laptop and mobile phone. "Ervin's contacted the printing press?"

"Already Ma'am, I've got a list of fees for printing one novel based on the quality of the paper, ink and cover." Ervin.

Moments later Maia arrived, they immediately started the meeting that morning because Maia could not stay there for too long. Maia's work outside of writing has been very busy, he himself did not expect if Renjani interested and wanted to publish Meet Sunshine.

*******

"Mas" Yana called Kelana before they entered the Antasena building.

"What's wrong?" Kelana reverse body.

Yana turned to her right and left to make sure no one else was there.

"There's lipstick on Mas Lana's lips." Yana gives her phone to Kelana to reflect.

Kelana's eyebrows shot up, she immediately rubbed her lips reddish like Renjani's lipstick.

"Why is this so?" Kelana Grunts. "I don't feel like I'm wearing Renjani's lipstick."

"But Mas kissed Mbak Rere." Yana lowered her voice, actually she was afraid to say that to Kelana. But Yana also does not want to Kelana make everyone wrong focus because of the lipstick stains.

"Then please buy Renjani a lipstick that is not easy to transfer like this, buy her the most durable lipstick in the world that can not slide."

Yana nodded even though she did not know if there was such lipstick in this world.
