BLUE GEM RING
"Yeah!" Said Armand while extending his hand.
"Congratulations" Lisa got up from her seat then greeted Armand's hand.
Armand clasped Lisa's hand, they walked hand in hand towards the door.
"We go straight to the KUA" Armand's words managed to stop Lisa's steps and make Armand's steps came to a halt.
"HAH, what's up to KUA now?" lisa is confused.
"Let our legitimate spit, my faith is not as strong as it used to be"
Lisa lands her punch on Armand's shoulder, upset by Armand's behavior, who always makes sudden decisions.
"Aw hurts baby, mending lips here hit him" Armand said as he turned his lips, and it only made Lisa more upset, he pinched Armand's lips made the lips stir firmer.
"Don't make the rules impromptu again, you're sure our wedding date, after all it's only three days away too" Lisa said upset.
"Okay, I'll wait patiently for you, we'll go to the jewelry store right?" Asked Armand hesitated, because the mood of his future wife had changed, maybe his mood to leave also changed.
"So, there is no more time, do you want to pesen onlen a ring? let it be custom" Lisa said while continuing her delayed path.
"Hemm, it's a good idea but I want to have a picture of the two of us" Armand said as he followed Lisa from behind.
"Yes later paste a photo of your face size A4 on the ring" Lisa said chimed in on the brilliant idea of Armand.

At the jewelry store two lovebirds were again messed with by the many choices of rings brought by the manager, they deliberately took out all their best products, because they knew who would buy it, the CEO of Athens Corp., said, Armand Ferdinand Rahardja's.
"How about ladies and gentlemen? does anything suit both of you?" Ask the store manager.
"Which one do you like?" Ask Lisa to Armand.
"I've never bought jewelry let alone a ring, you just choose which one you like" replied Armand, all this time he never had to bother shopping his own needs, moreover, shopping for others, everything has been prepared by the exemplary secretary of course.
"What is this?" Point Lisa on a pair of rings with blue jewels on top of both but different sizes, the shape looks simple but looks elegant.
"Hemm, I like that one, it reflects so much on you" replied Armand
"What am I really doing?" Lisa asked puzzledly, indeed what reflects her from that ring.
"Looks simple and ordinary" Lisa had almost commented with the assessment given by Armand, but luckily Armand was hunted to continue his speech.
Lisa was silent, she understood the meaning of Armand's words, she had indeed purposely fortified herself, preventing Armand from going too far, let alone entering the forbidden area within her.
But until when will the fortress survive? what if he alone broke his defenses? actually Lisa was just scared, she was afraid that Armand would be disappointed and hurt, how many secrets she had been damning, if she could she wanted to bring all her secrets to death.
Even for his revenge mission, he would do everything quietly without Armand's knowledge and without involving Armand.
Everything will end beautifully, right?
Lisa's smile covered the uneasiness of her heart, and her bitter smile was of course able to be captured by Armand's sixth sense.
"Stop smiling like that, your smile looks more like the smile of someone who's still puffing"
"Hahahaha, it's ugly that must be her smile" This time Lisa laughed, relieving a moment of her anxiety.
"Well, laughing is better" said Armand while next to his hand stroked smooth cheek Lisa.
They seem to have forgotten where they are now, they do not realize that they are now a spectacle of the people there, some store employees and the manager just looked at the two future husband and wife with a look of admiration, really really a very harmonious couple.
"Ekhem, so mister and miss have already decided to take this one?" The voice of the store manager returns them to the real world.
"Ah yes, we take that one" Lisa said with a red tinge on her cheek.
"Okay, please wait a minute I will pack and prepare the letter first"
The store manager escapes the room with Lisa's ring of choice, while the rest of the employees take the rest, Lisa and Armand are left alone in a special VIP room, while waiting they enjoy some snacks served on the table.
"Ar, I don't know where we're going to have our wedding?" Lisa said after swallowing the biscuits she ate.
"In hotel Z, I only invited a few important colleagues and closest relatives, so the party won't be so festive, you don't mind right?"
"It's okay, I'm even happy if there's no party, Ijab kobul cukub only"
"I wanted to be like that too, but at least I should introduce you to the people closest to me right"
"What...from the Mandala company will also come?" Lisa asked, almost saying Bram's name.
"No, I don't want to have any business with the company anymore, including with its president" Armand said with confidence.
What happened between them? why are they breaking up now? and why didn't Armand ask me why I only asked the mandala company? inner Lisa
"Ah so yeah, oh one more, there won't be any reporters right?"
"No, the private event is not open to the public, guests also can not bring mobile phones, no one can take photos"
"Waw, ko I feel we're rich in marriage hiding afraid of being found out first wife huh?" Lisa said while laughing amusedly imagining herself as a second wife.
"Take it that way, not all journalists are fair, most of them are looking for news only for their own benefit regardless of the facts, and not everyone has good intentions, he said, it could be that some of the people closest to me have bad intentions towards me, so we should take care of it"
Lisa understands now about how complicated the life of a conglomerate, not as beautiful as it looks, the higher you are the stronger the wind that blows, it takes a strong mental to be able to face all obstacles, indeed, like the law of the jungle, he who is strong will endure.
