"Do you know where I'm sick?" sheila asked, which made Nathan freeze.
Nathan racked his brain looking for the right reason for Sheila.
"Umm, I know from Harvey" Nathan replied accordingly.
Sheila frowned. "I never told Harvey I was sick."
Checkmate. Nathan died a flea.
"Ah stop! It doesn't matter where I know. Now get ready quickly! We have to see Mama" Nathan said, switching the conversation.
"What other events are there?" sheila asked lazily. He reluctantly invites Nathan into the house and only speaks at the door.
"Didn't you read my message, huh? Mama asked us to fit the clothes for engagement later."
Sheila rolled her eyes lazily.
"Should it be now?" sheila asked lazily.
"Yes, the future of the year!"
"Yes, wait in front. I'll change clothes first!"
Sheila went back into her room. Nathan, who was not welcome, entered and sat down on the living room couch.
"Look, he told me to wait on the porch. I'm her future husband!" nathan muttered confidently.
It didn't take long, Sheila came out of the room wearing a 3/4 sleeve dress with a length below the knee. Of course he had to be polite in front of Nathan's mother.
"Come hunted!" sheila.
For a moment Nathan stared at Sheila's ever-perfect appearance in his eyes. This time she didn't mind when Sheila tied her hair. The girl looks feminine and mature. Although in fact its nature is still very spoiled and childish.
"Come on!" nathan said in spirit.
Along the way to Kartika Boutik, only silence accompanied them both. Sheila looked out the car glass.
Nathan glanced at Sheila who seemed reluctant to look at him.
"Can't you just look at me a little, Shei? I'm Nathan, not Tarjo. Are all of my decisions correct? I've lied to you and made you fall in love with another me."
Nathan let out a rough breath. He gripped tightly at the wheel. Sheila who he usually knew as a cheerful girl, now only somber as if full of sorrow.
"Are you still mad at me?" Nathan finally opened his voice.
"No!" sheila answered briefly.
"So, why don't you go into the office?"
"sick."
"Why not tell me?" Nathan's still trying to get Sheila to keep talking.
"Forgot."
"I'm your boss. You should have called me instead of Harvey."
"Sorry."
Nathan took a breath. It feels free to talk to a girl who is still in 'guggling' mode'.
"I'll make amends" Nathan said.
"Whatever."
Nathan is still trying to be patient with Sheila's attitude. Until finally they arrived at Kartika Boutik owned by brother-in-law Roy.
Sheila went down immediately without waiting for Nathan. The man returned slowly.
"I have to be patient! Chasing love is not as easy as flipping a palm. Boy alone would have to wait for many years to be together with Aleya. I also have to be patient to be able to get Sheila's heart," Nathan murmured to encourage himself.
Sheila goes in first and greets Lian as well as Kartika. Sandra was also present to accompany her daughter. They are cipiki. Sheila developed her smile in front of Lian and Sandra. He did not want to make the parents suspicious of his relationship and Nathan was flat and without love.
Lian showed some really beautiful evening dresses for Sheila to wear at the engagement later. That is the choice of Kartika the designer as well as the owner of the boutique.
Sheila just obeyed Lian and Sandra's wishes. She tried several dresses until the mothers agreed with their choice.
Nathan just smiled to see Sheila changing gowns and make her body tired. Nathan whispers something to Lian so as not to force Sheila too much.
Until finally they have agreed on the dress that Sheila will wear later. Not to forget Nathan also tried his suit to adjust to Sheila's dress.
The two of them came out of the dressing room and got happy cheers from the mamas who were staring at them full of haru.
"You're very compatible, dear," praised Lian.
"Yes, you are destined to be a fool" said Sandra.
Nathan and Sheila looked at each other. A warm gaze Nathan gave to Sheila. There is no ice-cold attitude that Nathan usually displays for Sheila. This time a loving look Nathan tried to show Sheila.
"What's with his look? Why is he looking at me like that? Like it wasn't Nathan I knew," Sheila's inner monologue.
At eight o'clock in the evening, the dress fittings show was over. The mama said goodbye and allowed the couple to spend time together.
Nathan looked at Sheila's face that turned pale. He held Sheila's forehead.
"You're fever again. We'd better eat first, then you'll have to take medicine" Nathan said, like a doctor. He took Sheila by the hand and took her to the car.
Nathan treated Sheila very sweetly. Sheila just silently received all the warm treatment Nathan.
They head to a cafe for dinner first. Nathan ordered a healthy menu for Sheila. He did not want the girl to eat carelessly until her condition was completely restored.
When the food was served, Nathan made Sheila finish the meal. Then after that Nathan offered the medicine for Sheila to drink.
"Drink! After I drive you home, you should go to bed and rest. If you still don't recover tomorrow, you can't go in for another day. The limit is three days" Nathan said in a gentle, uncharacteristic style.
Sheila did not understand what happened to the man in front of her. He just nodded his head with all Nathan's words.

Dinner is over. It's time for Nathan to drive Sheila back to her rented house. Just like when they left, there was no conversation between them.
"Shei.." call Nathan.
But the girl did not answer at all.
"Shey!" Nathan glanced at Sheila who had fallen asleep.
Nathan pulled the corner of his lips. "You really like to sleep! Or is this the effect of the medicine you were drinking?" muttered Nathan while smiling knot.
It feels like today is a pretty happy day for him. Last night as Tarjo, he had spent the night with Sheila. Then tonight, she spent the night with Sheila.
Somehow his heart would not be willing if he had to leave Sheila in his rented house alone. Yes although he can still keep Sheila as Tarjo. But she wants Sheila to realize her feelings not as Tarjo, but as Nathan.
Nathan turns the car into his apartment that Boy gave him. He parked his car in a special parking lot for diamond class residents.
Car stopped. Nathan couldn't bear to wake Sheila up. He decided to lift Sheila's body and take her to his apartment room.
Nathan carefully stretches Sheila's body into her king-size bed. Nathan managed to catch his breath after walking quite a distance in Sheila's arms.
Nathan stared at Sheila's peaceful face while asleep. There was no face that Sheila always showed in front of Nathan.
Nathan cleaned himself up to be fresher. He hadn't visited his apartment in a long time. Everything is still maintained because Nathan told people to always clean it.
Nathan came out of the bathroom and looked back at Sheila who was still asleep.
"Did he not realize he had moved?" nathan muttered with a smile.
Nathan tidied Sheila's hair that covered her face. He caressed that smooth face with his hands.
Daringly Nathan kissed Sheila's smooth cheeks. Nathan smiled because the owner was not disturbed.
"What if I.." Nathan's mind began to wander.
Nathan brought his face closer and grabbed the thin chewy thing that had been his favorite ever since. He was carried away until he was not aware of what he was doing.
Sheila who felt something touching her lips immediately opened her eyes. She faintly recognized who the person who was playing her lips gently. His eyes could not open perfectly because of the influence of the medicine he had been drinking.
"Who is this? Is this really Nathan? Why did he kiss me? What's all this mean?" sheila asked in her heart.
Nathan started to put some distance. She was surprised to see Sheila open her eyes.
"She-sheila?" nathan was nervous.
"Nathan... What the hell are you doing? Why kiss me?" sheila asked helplessly.
Nathan can't dodge anymore. He should be honest now.
"I like you, Sheila. And I want to marry you. That's why I'm not against this matchmaking" Nathan said.
Sheila, who was still between her conscious and her unconscious, tried to digest what Nathan had said. I don't know what she was thinking, but the girl closed her eyes again. He went back to sleep.
Nathan breathed a sigh of relief. "How's this? Did he hear everything I said or not?"
Nathan ruffled his hair. He paced back and forth indistinctly due to nervousness and anxiety.
Late at night, Nathan had to rest his tired body. Not wanting to disturb the sleep of his girl, Nathan chose the guest room as his place to sleep tonight.
