"I don't want to talk about the blue sky, about promises I might not be able to keep. I'm not a master seducer who can make your heart flower. I really can't do it." Doddy said, under the shining lights on the corner walls of their table, Doddy's eyes glistened so warmly.
"I just wanted to ask you, Diah...Will you marry me?"
Diah was really like a electrocuted person, her eyes bulging, her mouth involuntarily opened, she was now like a human being in magic turned to stone.
Doddy after asking such an incredible question was no less tense, he sat unmoved as if someone was hiding, he said, afraid to give any movement that might make women who are in front of him suddenly run or run away from his presence.
"Yeah..." Diah was really like a bego, not knowing what to answer, just the blink of his eyes that indicated himself in a fully conscious state.
Doddy with a face that was almost expressionless due to the nervousness and tension that struck him, biting his thin lips for a moment, then started talking again, awkwardly and impatiently impressed,
"I've been waiting for this moment for a long time, it takes a lot of courage to say this, I need a lot of time that I can't say. I also tried to consider everything that might happen, because between me and you were no longer a child yesterday afternoon. No less I have the honor of God to make the most appropriate choice. I asked my own heart many times. Is it really the person I love, is this my choice? And many times the answer remains the same, it's all you." Doddy took a deep breath, and before Diah poked his eyelids, he,
"I will only ask once more, Will you marry me?"
Diah who was still stunned, slowly nodded her head with a red face. Doddy's eyes sparkled like a person who was not going to see the movement of Diah's head, although in the next second immediately lowered his head with a pias of extraordinary shame.
Doddy grabs Diah's chin trembling, the first time in his life touching Diah, the woman he's loved so much ever since. Slowly in his lift, so that the eyes of the two of them are parallel to each other.
"Please, give me one answer..a simple answer, yes or no?" Doddy's raucous voice half whispered, beginning to despair with Diah's response.
"Yes I will.but..." Diah finally answered nervously, never did she feel the sensation of feeling this strange, shame, pleasure, happiness, fear that was mixed into one. Even Bram who married her never expressed feelings for her let alone proposed to her in this way.
"Mom?" Doddy grabbed Diah's fingers, his palms were no less cold than the fingers of the woman he was holding. Diah stared at the clutched hands of them and for some reason she felt in her nervousness, a sense of comfort running through her veins, flowing in her blood.
"Is this not wrong?" The question floated like a puff over the pond
"Wrongly? what's wrong? why wrong?" Doddy squeezes Diah's fingers unconsciously.
"It may be too soon..."
"I've been waiting for this moment from ten years ago, how can you say it too soon."
"But I wasn't Diah ten years ago. I'm.is Diah but it may not be worth it to you anymore. Don't love me, if you wish I was the Diah you saw in that high school shirt." Diah said it while bowing her head, her voice as if choked.
Diah knew she had the same feelings as Doddy, when night fell, often her head was filled with this shadow of a man. And when she realized she missed Doddy, she immediately closed her eyes tightly, killing the feeling.
As a widow, she knew herself well, not just anyone could accept that status with a big heart, let alone a classmate of Doddy, a bachelor with a million charms and success.
"I wouldn't express my feelings if I cared which Diah you were. All I understand is one thing, if I don't have you for the rest of my life, I'll regret it for the rest of my life." The gaze was so convincing, making Diah shiver himself to look at it.
"I'm just afraid.you regret it." Diah said in a trembling voice.
"I have no reason to regret." Doddy said, shaking his head as if giving confidence to Diah, that he did not mess with his statement.
"Marriage is not just about the two of us, but marriage involves many others including our families. You have a family and are you sure they accept me as you do? A marriage without the blessing of parents is never easy." Diah emboldened herself to challenge Doddy's eyes that looked so warmly staring at him.
"All right, I get it." Doddy took Diah's fingers off slowly.
"I'll give us time to pursue that blessing. During that grace, I asked you to take care of your heart for me. I don't want to have you as such a possessive lover." Doddy pulled his body with a smile that grew satisfied.
"I'll fight for that blessing for us and if I've got it, there's no reason for you to say no. Because I will only hold one sentence from you, that you are willing to marry me."
Doddy leaned his back against the back of the chair, along with the main menu of their dinner served.
The bright sky was studded with stars, the lights from all over the city below them became a sea of dazzling scenery as if to witness a pair of people who were feeling a burning feeling that could not be described.
"I will try to keep you clean for me to touch you." Doddy said as the waiter left the two of them.
(Everyone has a story in his life, even a soul mate and death is the God who rules it. Sorry if some readers do not like about the love story of Doddy who has fallen in love with Diah, because now is a widow, there are some comments objection because of😅
There is nothing wrong with that status, everyone deserves to be loved by anyone. No one wants to fail in their marriage.
There is no law, when a single person married to a person who has ever married is illegal, because God created Love for everyone to walk to worship.
It is only possible that acceptance for that status feels difficult for some people. But, a person who has the greatness to be able to accept one's shortcomings sincerely, surely is the owner of perfect love🥰
If in the real world it may feel difficult but in the world halu there is nothing impossible🤣🤣)
