58. Ring on Alina's Sweet Finger

A few hours later, when the plane was about to land, Alina who had already woken up immediately woke Rena from her deep sleep. Fortunately the woman woke up quickly and Alina did not need more effort to wake her up.

Seeing the face of Rena that had not been cleaned by Andi, Alina just sighed. He was about to tell Rena about the condition of her face that there were so many scribbles of ink markers, he said, but he postponed it until the plane stopped and when Rena found out if his face was dirty because of Andi and the little boy on the plane, she immediately approached Andi and nagged him.

"Sorry baby, I can't bear to see that little boy. He seems to want to scratch your face," Andi said without guilt. Makes Rena even more upset.

"Let's go down" said Alina who was lowering the bag at the time.

"However? I can't go out with a face like this" Rena told Alina.

"Wear the mask first, later in the new car cleaned," said Alina later.

"I don't have a mask" said Rena and at that time Rico directly thrust a black mask at him without making a sound.

Since everyone had started to get off the plane, Rena was forced to grab a mask from Rico and wear it to get out of the plane. Arriving in a taxi that will take them home, Alina immediately gave a micellar water to Rena so that the woman immediately cleaned her face from the ink marker attached.

"Just look at you, I'll reply later," Rena muttered as her eyes glanced at Andi who was sitting beside the wheel.

Up ahead Andi looks astonished and returns to send his apology to Rena, but not responded by the woman.

The next day, Alina prepared to visit Rico's residence. He had promised Santi would visit there at once to give the souvenirs he bought yesterday during the holidays.

The taxi that Alina ordered had arrived, she immediately got into the car and placed the paper bag beside her. When the car started to run, Alina grabbed her phone in the bag to contact Rico. He deliberately went alone to his girlfriend's house because he did not want to bother her. Moreover, yesterday they just arrived, he was sure if Rico needed a break this morning.

It didn't take long for Rico to answer Alina's phone and now the call is connected

"Hello, Co? Say hello to Alina first.

"Yes, Honey. Where is it now?" ask Rico.

"I was in a taxi, just walking. Maybe about half to an hour will arrive there if the road is not jammed."

"Have you had breakfast yet?" ask Rico.

"Here you go, bang Fian stopped by the apartment and brought food."

"There's a bang Fian, huh? Why don't you just ask Fian to come here?"

"She just went straight and went home."

"Yes, be careful, honey. Tell the taxi driver not to speed bring my future wife."

Hearing that, Alina chuckles. Too often praised, now Alina has started to get used to it all. The shame is still there, but only in front of others. If in this situation, Alina would only laugh and agree with everything Rico said.

"Alright, I'll close first, baby. See you there" said Alina before she closed her call.

The road is not too crowded makes Alina arrived quickly at the residence Rico. He got out of the car immediately and as soon as the guards there saw Alina, the gate was opened.

"Good morning, Non Alina," said the guard there as Alina made it over the fence.

"Good morning, sir. I'm going in first yeah."

"Please, Non. Father, mother, and Mas Rico were waiting inside."

Alina smiled nodding and immediately walked in.

"Let's go in. Mama and Papa are waiting inside" Rico said as he extended his hand to Alina. Alina smiled and grabbed the man's hand, then they immediately entered the house.

Santi who was in the family room with Irfan then smiled and stood up when he saw the arrival of his son with Alina.

"Alina, you finally came too, baby" said Santi.

"Aunt how are you?" alina said when she was in front of the woman and experienced her with Irfan.

"Good aunt, honey. What are you carrying?" santi asked when she saw a paper bag in Alina's hand.

"This is a gift that Alina bought on vacation yesterday, Bi. Sorry I could only buy a little."

Alina gave the paper bag to Santi and immediately received it.

"Geez, honey, you shouldn't bother. You guys got home safe, Auntie's very happy."

Santi grabbed Alina by the shoulder and invited her to sit down.

"No hassle, Bi. Alina was happy to buy this gift for Aunt and Uncle."

"Thank you, honey. Aunty received the gift yes," said Santi after peeking at the contents of the paper bag he was holding.

"Together, Bi."

Not until 2 minutes of their meeting, suddenly Santi accidentally saw a ring embedded in Alina's ring finger. Alina had never worn any jewelry on her body other than earrings on her ears. And the ring that Alina is wearing right now could actually be normal for most women, but somehow Santi suspected that there was something behind the ring. Out of curiosity, Santi finally made small talk asking Alina and hoping that what she suspected when it came true.

"Honey, where did you buy the ring?" santi asked as she glanced at Alina's ring finger. 

Hearing Santi's question, Alina and Rico and Irfan looked at the ring on Alina's ring finger. Unlike Santi who was curious, Irfan actually thought that his wife might be interested in the ring that Alina wore. While Rico, he who since last night did intend to give a surprise to his parents this morning just keep quiet while smiling thinly. It seemed like his mother had a strong filling of surprises that he would give today.

"This ring is not Alina who bought it, Bi," said Alina.

He didn't know what to answer Santi's question because last night Rico said he would tell his parents everything.

"Oh yeah? Is that a gift from your family?" ask Santi again who is trying to find out.

Alina seemed to think as she occasionally glanced at Rico who was smiling at her. Seeing the interaction of the two people's gazes, Santi grew more suspicious and now he looked at his son.

"Abang, did you buy the ring for Alina?" ask Santi to Rico

Rico was asked to widen his smile and without further ado he immediately agreed.

"Ma, Pa, actually Rico wants to tell Mama and Papa that three days ago Rico proposed to Alina."
