Surya closes the car door after Gina enters. He greeted everyone who drove him to leave the building where they were holding their wedding. From inside the car, Gina also waved by showing off her happy smile.
Everyone bade farewell to the two who started to leave the courtyard of the building with a slow-moving car. Gina looked from the rearview mirror, everyone nearby looking still staring at her departure with a wave. He then rested his head on the headrest while taking a deep breath. Surya saw that and smiled.
"You must be very tired." Surya said as he reached for Gina's hand to finally hold it. The other hand still holds the steering wheel.
"Hmmm..." Gina replied while looking at Surya and smiling.
"It feels more exhausting than ever before." Gina then chuckled as she said that while remembering how their first marriage used to be. Gina who rejected Surya desperately and thought of all means to shorten her marriage. Surya only responded with a smile.
"Why have you kept your home from me all this time? Are you afraid I'm gonna be paparazzi and spy on your house?" Gina asked jokingly as this was the first time she had brought Gina to her new home, which had always been kept a secret from her.
"No, I just don't want you to ask me to invite you to play at home."
"Why? You're afraid I'm messing up your house?" Gina squinted her eyes at Surya to investigate.
"No. But I'm afraid I can't help myself when we're in a lonely place." Hearing Surya's reason, Gina's laughter broke out. It's really not over thinking there's a guy like Surya in this kind of time.
"I suspect you may be a medieval human teleporting in this age." Gina still laughed despite the reduced volume of her voice. Surya just smiled while still watching the road in front of him. He had taken off his hand with Gina's hand when he had to hold the steering wheel when he got to the turn.
It is undeniable, but it is Surya's attraction that makes Gina love him more and suddenly become convinced that Surya is the right man to be her husband. A man who keeps his principle that women can only be touched after they have officially become his. Although Surya had violated that principle and became very sorry, but thanks to it, it was, Gina becomes aware that Surya's entire effort to protect her from any touch from her is directly proportional to the feelings of love she has for Gina.
"But, I'm actually curious. You've been dating before, too. Do you have the same principles as when you were dating me?"
"Of course Miss. That principle is not for others but for myself. So, whoever it is, I will still defend my principles."
"really?" Gina tried to investigate again. Find out if what Surya said is true.
"Miss, we better not talk about this."
"Why? You're keeping something from me?"
"It's not so, Miss. We just got married and that means we start a new life so, we don't have to bring up what's gone by."
"Ahh, I'm getting suspicious seeing how you're trying so hard to divert this conversation."
"No, Miss, it's not that."
"Then what is it? You seem to be covering something up."
"How can I cover something up if I don't even do anything." Gina smiled seeing how Surya so seriously explained to her.
"All right, I believe. Otherwise, it must be that now you're marrying not me but her." Gina folded her hands on her chest while smiling. Surya could not bear to not smile again responding to the behavior of his wife who he just married since a few hours ago.
Surya drove his car out of the main road and then turned in a residential complex. Gina spread her gaze around where many houses stood as simple as in an ordinary settlement.
"Your house is here?" Gina asked impatiently if she would live in a place like the houses she passed by. The house with a plain and average model does not have a courtyard and only fenced that directly merges with the terrace.
"Yes, Miss." Surya answered still looking straight ahead to the street of the housing complex.
Gina began to guess how the house she would occupy later. Based on his experience living in the previous Surya house, a very simple house with a little yard and small room spaces and a very minimalist kitchen, a very simple house, Gina guessed maybe Surya's house this time was not much different. Especially judging from the pattern of houses around this, Gina is sure she will again occupy a simple house style Surya again.
But Gina had not had time to expect further about where she lived Surya had stopped his car in front of a dark brown wooden fence with black iron. Looks neat and looks aesthetic. The sun came down to open it by pushing towards the side. After that, Surya got back into the car and took Gina to a yard bigger than the old Surya's yard. Not stopping to blink there, Gina was also made aghast with the house she was going to occupy. Still with a minimalist tropical house style like a new house Surya in the village, but this one is much larger.
The house with a lot of glass and windows has two floors which in some parts also have glass windows. Looks a little open but still visible curtain on the right and left side if you want to be more closed. That was the first impression Gina saw from the house.
"Let's get down, Miss." Take Surya while opening the door on Gina's side.
"Surya, do you have a gift? How can you make a house here and here as good as this?" Gina asked teasingly while still paying attention to the front of Surya's house.
"Yes Miss, my alms is called bank credit." Surya replied and laughed a little. Gina pursed her lips because she believed Surya was only the origin when she said that. Gina knows how much of Surya's assets are in the village, so it's hard to believe that he had to make a loan in the bank just to build a house. Moreover, the business is getting smoother and earning, so the possibility is very small.
Gina followed Surya walking towards the door of the house with a clean terrace with an earth-dominated exterior on the side of the front pole. Teak doors are lacquered brown color is also perfect the look of a simple house. Never forget, Surya always installs a smart lock door in every house he occupies. When Gina asks why she uses the code key, Surya replies, so that she does not always carry the key everywhere. Fear of missing or forgetting where to put. Gina agrees with Surya.
Entering the interior of the house, Gina was even more aghast. All the furniture of the house Gina knew him very well. Almost all of them are from R-Company. Even the living room sofa is the latest output this year. The design of the sofa does look very suitable for the room, the room is not too wide but still has corners to put some space accessories that sweeten the layout.
"Let's Miss." Surya holding Gina's hand made her realize how long she had been standing in the living room just to admire the arrangement. Gina also complies with following where Surya took her
Surya walked closer to the living room and headed to the side terrace. It seems like he wants to show you something. Right, there's something interesting there.
"I know you love the fish pond in my old house, so I brought it here for you too." Said Surya showing a side terrace that merges with the fish pond like the house he previously occupied. Gina looked at Surya and smiled.
"thank you. You're always attentive to the slightest thing about me." Gina wrapped her hands around Surya's waist and placed Surya's hands to embrace his shoulders.
"You know, this place is going to be the place we use the most to be together. I love this corner. The sound of water gurgling, fish swimming, flowers and leaves all around the pond, a cup of hot chocolate and you. Perfect." Again Gina threw her smile at Surya. And cupp, a sweet kiss suddenly landed on Gina's forehead and made her blink her eyes many times getting that Surya kiss. Suddenly something warm seemed to run through the depths of his chest.
"It feels so hot. I think I should take a shower." Gina took her hand off Surya's waist and put some distance away from him.
"Where's our room?" Gina circulated her gaze into the room again.
"Come, Miss." Surya grabs Gina's hand again and pulls her to the stairs.
Somehow Gina felt Surya was very happy to hold her back and forth showing every place Gina had to go. Or, the places Gina should be familiar with from now on.
Gina climbed the stairs with the wooden accent one by one likening her steps to Surya who was in front of her still holding her hand. Then when he reached the second floor, Gina caught a glimpse of a corner that contained a treadmill there. That must be the angle to exercise. But that was all Gina had in mind because she had finally reached the door of the room she was looking for. Surya opens for him and brings Gina in.
"This is our room, Miss." Surya said as he pulled Gina deeper and deeper.
After entering the room, the first Gina capture is a classic minimalist bedroom design that presents a comfortable and luxurious feel. With gold colored decorations make it look more classy. Looking more beautiful and elegant is also used a combination of pink and blue dongker on the bedroom wall. Bed and bed covers also use the same combination of pink sheets and blue dongker blankets. It really looks unique. Gina was never even inspired to create such a beautiful room atmosphere.
"Do you not like it, Miss?" Surya asked because he saw Gina still in her place.
"Sorry, I deliberately did not give you a touch of maroon color because it will cause no difference between our room and your room in Papa's house."
"No, I like this one. I like the color. I didn't expect pink and dongker to mix this sweet." Praise Gina while wiping the blanket on the bed that feels very soft.
"Don't tell me, you've also worked as an interior designer." Gina Temptation.
"No Miss, this time I consulted the experts. The architect who worked on the construction of this house gave me these images and finally I chose this color alloy. It turns out that after applying the results are quite good."
"Surya, I have to take a shower. But, I think I'm gonna need a long time. You want to take a shower first?" Gina made an offer.
"No Miss, please shower first. I can wait." Without saying anything else, Gina immediately entered the bathroom and performed her long bathing ritual. Gina believes Surya's bathroom must have been filled with all her needs for a bath. And when he entered it, right, everything was exactly the same as what he had imagined. Gina smiles seeing that everything in the bathroom is all that Gina needs to take a bath. There is even a therapeutic aroma candle in the corner of the room that he lives on to make the bathroom to be the same as the ideal bathroom.
Surya sat on the bed and leaned on the end of the bed. He then opened his phone that he hardly touched all day. There are a lot of incoming messages. Surya started to read one by one the incoming messages. Most are congratulations from friends who did not have time to attend the wedding. Surya also replied to the messages one by one. Until finally Gina came out of the bathroom in bath pajamas and hair wrapped in a towel.
"It's so fresh." Said Gina while removing a towel over her head which finally showed long wet hair dangling onto her back. At that second Surya's eyes like they don't want to be distracted by anything. Gina's clean and fresh plain face after bathing with wet, fragrant hair made her heart beat for the charm that Gina showed for the first time.
They had indeed lived in one room but Gina had never looked like that before her. At that time usually Gina always came out of the bathroom with her pyjamas covered and her hair was dry because Gina had dried her wet hair in the bathroom. So that the scenery this time is completely foreign but enough to make Surya stunned to see the unusual appearance of Gina.
"Surya... Where's my suitcase?" Gina's sentence finally dawned on Surya to return to see Gina in the usual way.
"Pouches?" Surya asked back because he became nervous as Gina walked over to him.
"The suitcase that contains my clothes." Gina now sat in front of Surya who had changed her sitting position by folding her legs to cross-legged. The smell of Gina's body was getting into her nostrils. The soft aroma of honey and Gina's favorite milk seemed to further disrupt Surya's concentration. Plus Gina's appearance with those low collared shower pajamas really made Surya feel uneasy being close to her so.
"The suitcase is red." Clearly Gina was further on because she felt Surya was less responsive to what she was talking about.
Hearing that, Surya finally re-understood and remembered that when opening the trunk of his car earlier he did not see any red suitcase.
"But I didn't find a red suitcase, Miss. Just that pink bag." Point Surya on a large bag containing makeup tools and all the needs of facial and body care. Gina looked at Surya's index finger.
"Oh my God, did Miss Yuyun forget to put it in?" Gina stood up and looked for her phone.
"Then I have to what if there's no suitcase? All my clothes are there." Gina's voice sounded annoyed. Surya stood up and then walked towards the door.
"Where are you going?" Gina asked who saw Surya coming out of the room.
"I'll check back who knows who's still left in the car, miss." After that Gina saw Surya disappear from behind the door. Gina then sat on the bed while contacting Yuyun who had not yet picked up the phone from her. But, a moment later Surya had already returned to the room.
"Ada?" Gina's face looked expectantly at Surya. But Surya could only answer with a soft head.
"Ahh, how is this. I don't have a change of clothes. Ms. Yuyun.. Where is she? Why don't you pick up my phone." Gina looked very upset and angry this time.
"Tomorrow morning we take at Papa's house, Miss."
"Then what about me now? Do I have to wear that dress to sleep?" Omel Gina with a manyun face was still sitting on the edge of the bed.
"You can wear my clothes as usual, Miss." Surya said with a big smile as if reminding Gina of her habits when staying with her.
"But, I want to wear my own clothes this time." Gina's sentence is slow.
"What clothes do you want this time is special enough?" Temptation Surya and make Gina immediately understand the meaning so that makes her face blushing.
"What special? No. gabe. It's just, like I said, I really want to wear my own clothes."
"Oh yes, you can still wear your own clothes." Gina frowned at Surya's words because she didn't understand the meaning.
"I think you left a shirt in my old house first, Miss." Surya said as he walked closer to the closet on the other side of the room. Hearing that, Gina's eyes followed where Surya was going.
"It... You can wear this." Surya showed something that made Gina instantly widen her eyes with a blushing face like boiled shrimp because she felt embarrassed.
"You... Where did you get that?" Tanya Gina stammered.
"I found it in the closet while packing to move house, Miss." Surya's face with a wide smile teased Gina.
Gina no longer knew what to do when the maroon-colored night dress with spaghetti-styled with transparent material was now in Surya's hands. Instantly she remembered how she had almost worn the transparent evening dress to attract the attention of Surya. Until now Gina has been misbehaved to hide the shirt in her closet.
"Don't you want to wear this for me to see?" Surya walked up to Gina while carrying a dress that night.
"No, I'm not wearing it. Especially in front of you at that time. You think I'm out of my mind?" Gina dodged desperately as she shifted her seat further into the middle of the bed to cover up her misconduct.
"Then why is this dress there?"
"That was accidentally carried away while I was packing my sleepover at your house." The fierce Elak Gina did not want her mode to seduce Surya when it was discovered by her.
"All right..." Surya said slowly as he climbed up onto the bed facing Gina who was sitting nervously there.
"Whatever it is, right now I don't care anymore, Miss." Surya put the night dress that caused the debate on the bed and moved closer so that Gina could not control her heartbeat.
"I also don't care what clothes you're going to wear tonight. So then... Good night, Madam." Right after that sentence, the room room turned dim. Gina gasped and looked around in amazement. The bright lights in the middle of the plavon are extinguished, replaced by sleeping lights in the corners of the dimly lit plavon. An application panel of the phone in Surya's hand is now being used to control all the hardware in the room to be set to his liking.
"From now on, I will speak to you and will call your name Madam Surya Sumarso."
Hearing that, inexplicably Gina felt Surya's words sound beautiful to her ears. A name that still feels foreign but with pleasure Gina will wear it. Madam Surya Sumarso which means the same as the wife of Mr. Surya Sumarso. Gina looked at Surya in the dimness of the room lights and found a deep eye gaze with a shady smile from her lips.
Although he had rejected Surya's proposal, but this time Gina felt the choice to invite Surya to marry was right. He feels very confident about his feelings for Surya and Surya's feelings for him. He felt that Surya was the only man who made him sure he could accompany him through his days full of love.
"Surya, I love you." Gina's sentence finally.
"I love you, Gina." Reply Surya which then made Gina unable to hold back anymore and then approached to hug him.
The drizzle began to descend slowly soaking up the window of the room and everything it fell into. Trees, flowers, grass, soil, all get wet from it.
Good night, universe...
