"Lice.." Carlotta's whispers simultaneously nudged Alice's arm.
"Hm"
"Why are you bringing Mr. Theo in anyway?"
"He who wants to come" Alice answered casually.
For a moment Carlotta fell silent. Currently in front of the two of them was Theo who had been staring at Alice who was busy with her cellphone.
The man actually accompanied Alice. Larat, the man forces to come along and ends up at a cafe that Alice has agreed with Carlotta.
"Emm Mr., please in the drink" Carlotta stiffened.
Theo responded with only deheman without turning his gaze away.
"If you want to scare my best friend, you better go home, Mr." Alice said without looking at Theo.
"Lice!" Carlotta's slow reprimand began to panic.
"No, I'll stay here" Theo said in a heavy voice.
Alice gave a rough sigh and put the phone on the table and looked at Theo. "Your eyes are scaring my best friend" Tirted Alice.
"Alice, my gosh" Pekik held back Carlotta.
Alice could speak this casually to Theo, not even a look of courtesy as Alice stared at Theo.
"Let's just relax, Miss Carlotta. Alice is my future wife" Theo suddenly turned to stare at Carlotta who was now gaping in disbelief.
Alice again snorted in annoyance at what Theo had just said. If it's like this Alice is sure Carlotta will ask her for an explanation for seven days and seven nights.
When the atmosphere of the table was very tense, suddenly there was a voice of a man calling Alice's name.
"Alice!" Calling the man made the occupant of table number eight immediately turn his head.
"Dom!" Alice cried happily while waking up.
Greb!
The two hugged each other, it has been a long time the two friends did not meet because a few weeks this Dom Zhiovan business trip out of town.
"It's only been a while since your body's getting thinner, Lice!" Dumel is upset that Dom noticed Alice's body.
"I-i"
"You forgot me, you fucking Dom!" Excited not to be pleased Carlotta.
Alice and Dom turned to the woman. Dom chuckles and leads Alice back to her seat, but Alice's eyes are on Theo.
The man's jaw tightened, his gaze so sharp and piercing and don't forget the man's fist clearly visible on the table.
"Oh duh, my Lotta is raging hahaha" Ledek Dom ruffled Carlotta's hair.
"Damn it, don't touch my hair!" Sizzle pissed Carlotta.
"Gosh, come on, my Lotta don't be mad at me. Take it easy I bring souvenirs for you"
Hearing the word souvenir, Carlotta instantly fury extinguished. "Where are my souvenirs?" Ask Carlotta enthusiastically.
"There's in my car, for Alice too"
Dom pressed Alice's cheek to make Theo burn something hot in his heart and mind. Until finally the man kicked the table strong enough to make the attention of all of them immediately focused on Theo.
"Mr.Theo?" Hardik Dom who just realized Theo's presence.
"I go to the toilet first" Theo coldly stared at Alice.
While the one who was stared at only nodded doubtfully, plus now Dom stared at his full search.
After Theo left the toilet, Dom immediately held Alice's shoulders and directed the girl to look at him.
"What's this?" Ask Dom. "What is your relationship with Mr. Theo?" Next full investigation
"I-i"
"Mr.Theo is Alice's future husband" Carlotta interrupted Alice's speech.
"What!" Surprised by Dom who again invited the gaze of the cafe visitors.
"Good God don't yell Dom, I'm not deaf" Anxious Alice blurted her lips.
"Mr.Theo really is your future husband?" Ask streak Dom.
Alice nodded lethargicly and sighed harshly.
"You remember about my confidences a while ago about that matchmaking?"
Carlotta nodded enthusiastically, another thing with Dom who began to release his hand that was on Alice's shoulder.
"Mr.Theo's the one, he's the one who was betrothed to me because of that absurd agreement" Alice explained with her frustrated face.
"You can turn it down, Lice!"
"It's Dom, last night I tried to turn him down but.."
The flashback
.
The night was getting late, but Alice and her family were still watching television in the living room.
A few moments later, the show that was watched was finished. Brandon turned off his television.
"At night, let's go to sleep" Invite Brandon while waking up from his position followed by his wife.
"Mom, Dad wait a minute, I want to talk" Alice said, restraining the movements of her parents.
"What's Lice?" Ask Giselle.
"Emm, it's about matchmaking.." Alice began to hesitate, especially when she saw her parents sit back and look seriously at her.
"What's wrong with the match?" Ask Brandon.
"Can this match be annulled?"
"Why is it? You bickering? Aren't you guys okay?" Ask streak Giselle.
"Alice doesn't like her Mom.."
"That's a problem later you'll like it. And this is not just a matchmaking but a promise that your Mommy has made" Brandon said.
Alice looked at her parents with teary eyes.
"What promise? Explain it correctly, you always say this but don't explain what happened"
There was a heavy sigh of Giselle, until finally the woman changed position and sat next to Alice.
"It's been ten years that Mommy and Daddy got married. But I haven't had any kids yet"
"At that time, Jinny and Jhon as both Theo's parents and our friends. They came to visit us after almost two years of not seeing each other because Jinny and Jhon had moved out of the country when they were just married"
"They came with their little son Theo. Honestly, Mom is very envious and sad"
"Those who have only been married for two years have been given a baby while Mommy and Daddy, not yet"
Giselle stopped her speech for a moment, wiping away her tears that were dripping just like that when recalling that bitterness.
"You know, honey? They kindly entrusted Theo to us, they said in the country they used to live in. Taking care of a small child can be a lure so that Mommy can get pregnant quickly"
"And in fact, for a month later Mommy managed to baby, Mommy managed to conceive you hikss.." Giselle started sobbing herself as she happily recalled that.
"After learning Mommy is pregnant, Mommy excitedly utters 'If Mommy's son is a boy, then he will become Theo's brother. But if she's a woman then she'll be Theo's wife'."
"Even though Jinny and Jhon did not approve of the remark at first. But in the end they agreed because Mommy didn't know what kind of thanks to them.."
Tests.. Tests.. Tests..
Unknowingly the tears of Alice fell, now the girl hugged the Mommy tightly in her accompaniment Daddy who joined her two beloved women.
"Mommy please same you hikss, live this relationship hikss. Mommy believes Theo is the best hikss" Giselle said in between her tears.
Off Flashback.
.
"So that's it.." Alice's sigh could not twitch, nor did the two friends who heard Alice's explanation.
"Ekhem.."
