“What would you do if a woman suddenly asked for marriage?” Delano asked his roommate, as soon as he got to the boarding place.
“Don't tell Non Adel to marry?” The Tambun Galih glared when he said that.
“Iya.” The one with the room nodded slowly. “So afternoon he did get married.”
“WOW.” Unexpectedly, Galih shouted. “Bos Delano use pellets yes?”
“Together.” Of course the man who owned the room immediately rebuked. “Indeed I didn't do that?”
Galih quickly shook his head. It was not that he was condescending to his roommate, but the man he called the boss was the type of person he would not be invited to marry.
Not because the man was inappropriate, but because Delano was never sensitive to women. Many liked her, but in the end gave up because she was insensitive.
“Married, but contract marriage.” In the end, Delano explained. “Free for one or two years only.”
“Lah? Does Non Adel not mind widows at such a young age?”
Delano could only raise his shoulders hearing the question. She had asked Adelia the same question, but she could not answer.
“It looks like he's just short-minded.” That is all that Delano can say.

“Can repeat once again?” Marcel glared when he said that.
“I can only receive my mother's will, if I am married.” Adelia certainly does not mind repeating, even in shorter sentences.
Hearing that answer, Poppy had already opened her mouth. Unfortunately, Marcel immediately covered the woman's mouth with his hand. Prevent the tomboy from swearing harsh words that can make Adelia offended.
“Isn't that outrageous?” poppy asked after feeling a little calmer. “How is it possible to get married at this young age and with an unknown person. This is not the time of Sitti Nurbaya.”
“Because of that now I feel confused.” Adelia sighed softly. “I want to ask my Daddy to marry you a contract, but it seems he's not too happy with it.”
“Are you crazy?” Marcel shouted quite loudly. Fortunately, they are in the cafeteria right now.
“How can you ask a stranger to marry a contract?” This time the wretched asked in a whisper.
“Isn't that what always happens in novels?” asked Adelia innocently. “The male lead, requested a contract marriage to the female lead, even though they had just become acquainted.”
Hearing Adelia's innocence, the two female companions let out a loud sigh. They become worried when Adelia accepts her inheritance later. That little girl would be easily fooled.
“Listen.” Poppy massaged the base of her nose quite hard. “Let's how, a novel is just a novel. Not necessarily there is such a thing that happens in the real world.”
“Is that?”
The plain question, accompanied by an equally innocent facial expression made two of Adelia's best friends eager to hit the woman. It seemed like Adelia really could not be left alone. At least, that's what they think.
“The bottom line, don't trust a newly known man!” Marcel told me.
“Then, do I need to meet the man I'm betrothed to?” adelia asked looking a little confused. “Mama seems to have known that person a long time ago.”
“Sounds like it's better.” Poppy nodded in agreement. “At least, your late mama will definitely not carelessly look for her daughter mate.”
“But still, don't trust him too much. You have to find out if he's really good or not,” continued Marcel giving advice.
Adelia did not answer her two friends. Her pretty brown eyes, turned to staring at the phone that was on the table. That flat object, it just clinked and displayed an incoming message.
“Long life,” murmured Adelia after reading the contents of her message. “Lawyer mama met with the guy.”
“Totally?” Poppy and Marcel approached to read what was on the phone.
“So how is it? Just meet?” adelia asked glancing at her two friends.
“He didn't send a photo first? Or maybe chat with each other first. Direct time to meet.”
“Eh, Pop. Nowadays the photo can be edited, so it's actually directly found.” Marcel immediately rebuked.
Poppy nodded slowly hearing that. Adelia agrees with her boyfriend. Photos can be deceiving.
Therefore, the little brown-haired woman immediately agreed with the lawyer. Coincidentally, he also had no more lectures after this and it was fine to meet at any hour. He also ran away from home.
“Then, I go first yes.” Adelia was transporting her things because she was going straight to the appointment.
“You want to go now?” Although confused, but the tomboy still waved his friend's departure.
Adelia walked casually to the parking lot, but in the middle of the road met her killer lecturer. To be more precise, the lecturer suddenly called out to him.
“You today bring a car?”
“Iya, Sir. What's up?” asked Adelia who was of course confused by the lecturer's question.
“I can nebeng? Coincidentally my car broke down.” Aris the handsome lecturer replied lightly.
“But I have an appointment, Sir.”
“Which way do you want to go? I also happen to have some outside business. If it is unidirectional, we are together,” replied Aris still looks so relaxed, as if what he asked is not serious.
Hearing that, the more look Adelia. Especially after he said his goal and the lecturer replied, “I am also in that direction. We can be together. Get the car keys.”
“Hah? What do you do, Sir?” Adelia was more confused to see the lecturer's hand.
“I'm driving and you have to. Otherwise, I'll give you an E.”
With such a threat, of course Adelia would hand over her car keys. He would not want to, must resign to let the lecturer drive. This was certainly the most awkward thing Adelia had ever done together with her lecturer.
What makes Adelia upset is, they become a spectacle of some people. Not many people do, but it would be easy to become a gossip with the help of social media. Where are there students who are supported by the lecturer, right?
“Not to strain so. I don't eat people.” Aris said that, when she saw her students feeling awkward.
“Eventually, I was afraid to be a gossip material and was bullied.” The owner of the car, answered honestly.
“Why be afraid? Nothing happened between us.” Aris replied, without taking his eyes off the highway.
“Stay only, I worry.” That was all Adelia said, before choosing to contact Delano. The man may be at work, but he doesn't want to drive Aris home either.
“Omong-by the way, what are you doing to the cafe? Not going home right away?” Suddenly Aris asked.
“I have an appointment with people, Sir. Regular blind date.” Adelia answered honestly, hoping that the lecturer would feel expelled.
“Oh, yes? Same dong.”
Adelia's forehead was wrinkled to hear that. For some reason, he felt uncomfortable with what the lecturer had just said. More and more feel bad, when the lecturer parked his car right in the cafe that Adelia headed. However, the woman did not reveal the location of the details.
“I was betrothed, but strangely the one who contacted my parents was a lawyer,” Aris explained in detail.
“Panjak name Mr Aris Wisesa is not?” adelia asked, after seeing her phone.
“Iya. Aris Wisesa it's my long name.”
