"Bella, why are you standing on a chair like that? It's impolite to be so in front of guests..."
Diah appeared before the open door, standing barely noticed by the two people who were busy making the agreement.
Doddy's head turned away, stunned for a moment and staring stunned at Diah looking so graceful and dazzling in a simple floral dress but as Diah wore, she was so charming.
Bella immediately came down with a sullen face scattering at the mother who was reprimanding him.
"Mama, is Mama leaving?" Bella asked while hugging her mother's waist.
"Mama's going to be away with Doddy, Bella's going to stay with Aunt Adis, yeah..." Diah half persuaded.
Diah has indeed asked her sister Adis to stay with them special tonight. Adis will take care of Bella, because the housekeeper who helps at her home only works until Diah gets home from the office. He did not stay, because he had a family and his house was not far from around Sarah's apartment which is now occupied by Diah.
"Mama won't be long?" Bella asked with her cute behavior.
"Bella's gonna sleep waiting for mom."
"Mama won't be long, but Bella has to sleep if Aunt Adis tells Bella to sleep." Diah leaned over kissing the two cheeks of her little girl.
"Mom not for long, yeah..." Whine while greeting and kissing Diah's hand, a sign he let her go.
Bella turned towards Doddy who was still glued to Diah, her eyes unblinking at the woman who looked so graceful in the flower-patterned white dress.
"Of Doddy..."
Even Doddy did not realize Bella was glaring at him, only he realized when Bella shook her hand.
"Jaga mama, yeah." He said while opening his eyes.
"Oh, of course. Om Doddy will take care of Mama Bella with all her body." Doddy smiled at Bella, glancing at Diah who looked blushed.
"Thank you." Bella grabs Doddy's fingers and greets him and kisses a man's neat-looking hands in a bright blue hem that makes him look even more enchanting.
Doddy was stunned, only this time he received salim from a child, his blood was warmed, as his fatherly soul seemed to surface. He felt so beautiful to be treated so warmly by a child.
"Can we go now?" Tanya Diah broke the sudden silence between them.
"Oh, we'd better get going now." Doddy gently patted Bella's head, as a sign she was saying goodbye to bringing the mama of the little girl who is now looking funny at her.
"Adis, let's go first..." Diah says goodbye to her sister who came out of the room and took Bella's hand, the little girl blinked her eyes cutely at Doddy while raising her little pinky as if reminding Doddy that they were both bound by agreement.
...***...
"You're so pretty tonight." Finally Doddy could not bear to not take out the sentence of praise that in the end from earlier.
"Detail it well. Don't look too much." Yegur Diah while smiling furiously, he tidied his seat up a little upright, his stomach felt strange because of the tension that began to attack him. Diah was very nervous, in fact she could not hide that feeling that emanated clearly from her stiff and slightly trembling movements.
"I really like how you look tonight." Doddy smiled, now his eyes were straight forward splitting the night.
"I've told you that I love a woman and I don't want to let her go anymore." Answer Doddy lightly.
"That's not what I'm asking." Diah said with doubt.
"You mean?"
"Have you told honestly my status background to your parents?" Diah asked, his hands squeezing each other.
"Do you think I'm someone who hides things?" Doddy asked back.
"I don't want any misunderstandings later. So I don't have to explain anything later if I meet, if they already know.if I'm a widow." Diah defended herself awkwardly.
"Dad and my mom already know about it, I don't have to worry." Doddy chuckled as if trying to calm Diah down.
"Oh..." Diah looked a little relieved.
"What do they think of that?"
"My mother and father didn't say anything when I told them that the woman I love is a widow." Doddy answered casually.
"They didn't say anything?" Diah raised her face, looking at Doddy who was grinning behind the steering wheel.
"Mother just said, she wanted to meet the woman who had touched the heart of her beloved son. That's why he came earlier than he should." Said Doddy while stealing a glance at the woman who was now stunned to look at him.
"It seems my mother can't wait to meet her future daughter-in-law." Doddy laughed. Diah fell silent, she did not know whether to be happy or to be afraid now.
According to his little heart as a woman is ironic if a mother does not ask much about the couple of the child. Especially if you hear the person who is close to his child is a woman who has failed in her household and even brought children from previous marriages.
The car hugged into a large house that looked brightly lit, the turnstile was immediately opened when Doddy gave the horn twice without pause.
This Doddy family home is designed in a simple with a luxurious modern classic style.
The pure white paint was glistening between the lights, looking elegant and comfortable
Diah bit her own lip as Doddy's car entered the spacious yard and stopped in front of the garage.
"We've arrived." Suddenly Doddy's hand grabbed Diah's cold fingers.
"We met my father and mother, not just to get you acquainted, but to hunt for their blessing. I really want to justify you immediately in marriage." Doddy's words flowed warmly. And in the next second Doddy cupped his hands on Diah's fingers.
"We'll both convince them." Doddy smiled, pulled both of Diah's hands and placed them on his chest, as if giving Diah strength through his heartbeat.
"Come with me." Doddy kissed Diah's icy fingers, before taking them off and opening the car door, letting Diah out.
"Don't be afraid, there's me..."
