Our Story: The Sudden Chancellery
S2 Chapter 20 – Caught

Viani looks very happy after the first kiss between them happened. No longer seemed to feel bad mood that had lasted up to a week, until his coworkers had questioned the change in attitude so drastic.

Saturday and Sunday in a row, they go for a walk together. Do a lot of things that couples do in general. Watch, eat, play in fun rides or chat as usual.

But one thing that the man should not do, is hold Viani's hand in public. The girl was still terrified of all the worst possibilities. Caught, for example?

Rinto who is always ready, stick to his activities follow Viani to the place the couple visited, but only to the extent of parking.

But somehow, Viani has not felt that they are a real couple, because it is just a kiss. There's no feeling Vincent can confirm with him.

They had just come out of the cinema when someone suddenly appeared and made Viani startled. Viani's fear is real!

“Gosh!” Viani's face paled.

“Why, Vi?” ask Vincent.

The man he knew was walking with his wife, alone. And now, their eyes were on Vincent and Viani. Oh no!

“Let's run, Vin!”

Viani took a thousand steps by pulling Vincent's hand out of the mall as quickly as possible.

After arriving at the parking lot, Viani who was bored resting on the waiting bench that was there. “Capek!”

“Why you? Who are we running from?” Vincent sat down next to Viani.

“Om Felix ..”

Viani's phone was ringing aloud. He picked it up and found Felix's name there. Viani did not dare to answer his Om call.

He said nothing more, and immediately took Vincent home. Anyway, it was already night. They took the time to stop by at a famous fried chicken stall thru drive and bring it home.

Vincent's car just got into the parking lot in the basement. It's a luxury apartment complex, making Vincent a little inferior. It would take a few more years for him to raise money, in order to be able to buy a property in his own name.

“You stay here?” ask Vincent.

“Iya on the 15th floor, at number 153. Do you mind if we eat in the car? Papa install CCTV in my apartment.” Viani focused on her phone, telling Rinto to go home right now.

“No problem, Vi.”

One thing Vincent likes about Viani is, this girl is quite simple. As expensive as any outfit he uses, this girl can still adjust.

The Aditya family is famous for humble and not too fond of buying branded goods. Luxury cars are not a hobby, at most BMW and Mercy old type. But they've got 2 private jets and one heli, by the way.

As of now, when Vincent only bought him a box of rice and fried chicken flour along with soda and french fries—yang for Viani size, the price was very cheap— was never a problem for him. Vincent had no choice because Viani was already panicking, and whined to go home.

But here, he ate cuefully, as if all was common. Viani is not disturbed at all about where to eat less comfortable. He even finished the meal faster than Vincent himself.

After they ate until they were full, Viani did not go down immediately. He was still in Vincent's car to relax for a while with the man while having a short chat, distracting him from the nervousness after meeting Felix.

But the ringing of the phone again made Viani jump in shock. Gala called. Felix must have called his cousin and told him he had met Viani.

Viani told Vincent to shut up and picked him up with a loudspeaker.

“Vi. Whose way are you?” he asked directly without letting Viani prepare with her answer. “Jawab, Vi ..”

Viani's heart rate increased dramatically when she heard her father's baritone voice. Forced Viani to answer honestly though stammered. There's no point in lying anymore because Felix himself was an eyewitness. “Sa-sama ... Same Vincent, Pa.”

"You guys dating?"

Viani was speechless hearing Gala's question. For some reason, the two words felt like thousands of words that made Viani difficult to answer.

“After this, Papa will talk to you... And Vincent, you better get ready when I get to Jakarta. Don't enter my son's apartment! I'll know if you get reckless!”

Damn, Gala already knows that Vincent is with Viani. Vincent had to answer. “Iya, Om .. I understand. I'm not gonna fuck around."

"I hold your word."

The phone was then simply shut down by Gala. They were silent for a few minutes, still digesting what Gala said earlier on the phone. Both of them looked shocked and shocked. Their tongues suddenly twisted and looked a little confused, especially Viani.

Not had time to relieve their shock, Indra also called. As if pouring gasoline into a small fire, the feeling of Viani and Vincent grew increasingly foggy. Because Indra's reaction was not so friendly and left a big question room within them.

“Papa-papa you already know.”

“We got caught.”

“Iya.”

Vincent looked straight at the girl. “How to?”

“Nknow. I'm not—“

Vincent immediately silenced those lips without excuse. For the second time, he kissed again and claimed the lips for just a few seconds.

He needs calmness from that touch, to momentarily save Vincent from his worry at Papa's threat from the girl he likes.

Then Vincent clasped Viani's hand tightly. He looked at Viani with a serious expression.

Vincent was hesitant at first, but now, he's settled on his decision. Will not be wasted again Viani just like that. If it is discovered, everything is done!

“We don't have to cover our relationship anymore from your Papa. We face up with.”

Viani disagreed. “Vin, let me talk to Papa first—“

“Ngak. I don't want to, Vi ... I love you and I don't want to hide anymore. If the way I make it difficult for you, I still want to try. During that time, you wait for me, huh?”

“Hah?”

“If if your Papa still does not agree, can you survive a little more?” Vincent's eyes locked onto Viani's gaze, ensuring that only he was in the girl's sight. “I'll try to find a way so we can be together.”

“But ‘kan, we are all together, Vin.”

Vincent shakes his head at Viani's intentions which are not in line with his intentions. “I don't want backstreet. I want to be free to hold your hand and walk with you. I want us to marry!”

“APA?!”

...***...

Viani is now in her apartment, alone. He had gone back and forth several times in his bed, but he still could not sleep.

Vincent's shadow when he said that he wanted to get married sounded so horror.

Be married? The relationship just doesn't feel official. They are still in a relationship without status even though the feelings of affection are increasingly peaking.

Before returning home, Vincent did not hesitate to take Viani to the door of his apartment. Even kissed Viani's forehead to say good night. Outside the door of the apartment there is still CCTV that Gala can see from her cell phone at any time!

Then Gemma called him. They discussed what Gala had told her.

“So you're with Vincent, have you dated, Vi? Since when?”

“Newly, Ma ...” Yes already, Viani just answer as if not asked again. If he told me about Vincent who hadn't really asked him to be his girlfriend, this conversation would have been long.

“Oh. So so ...”

“Papa any story about us, Ma?”

“Not many. He has not commented on your relationship yet. If so, Mama, support. Mama knows Vincent and his work is great. Handsome kid. Suitable for a beautiful Mama's child.”

“Ih, Mama bokis!”

Gemma laughed across the street. That's according to Gemma, what about the unpredictable Gala? Viani hasn't even talked to Indra. Viani's job is to add more.

“Stay Papa you are. Yes, we will talk when we get home. If now, the timing is not right.”

Gemma's right. Viani had to wait a little more to talk about it. The thing is, Vincent wants her to get married, not date again! This is something very serious!

And maybe the man said it in such an unromantic way. Against Vincent's statement, Viani did not answer.

Not refusing, not wanting. Vincent didn't ask if Viani was willing or not. In other words, the man just wanted Viani to know, not really going to propose yet.

He shouldn't have been burdened by Vincent's wishes, right? Because it is still just a wish.

The girl tried to dampen her very mixed feelings today, until sleepiness invited her to rest.
