The Promise You Make

The Promise You Make
87. Offer or proposal


The atmosphere of the building where the wedding reception venue Yasa and Adisti looks so crowded. The whole family was all present, only one or two did not come. Dish assortment available. Both are deliberately preparing a lot of food because they do not want guests to feel uncomfortable. Especially until hungry because the food is not according to taste. Now everyone is free to choose their favorite.


The two newlyweds sat on the stage that had been provided. Band players also play their instruments, enliven the event tonight. The host also guides her until the event goes smoothly. Guests who attend one by one congratulate, do not forget to also bring a gift whether it is an envelope or parcel.


"Are you tired? Shouldn't we just rest?" yasa asked as he saw Adisti start massaging his forehead. It seems that woman is already feeling dizzy.


"It's okay, I'm just a little dizzy, but I can still hold it. You don't have to worry" Adisti replied with a smile because that's how it is.


If he leaves the cell, what will people say later. It was the same as disrespecting the guests, let the woman endure a little pain in her head. Besides, Adisti also wants to enjoy the event tonight. Yasa who saw the smile on his wife's face did not force her anymore.


Maybe Adisti still wants to enjoy the show tonight. He himself is also still at this party and welcomes guests from among friends and relatives.


Meanwhile Vira from earlier clung to her papa. He did not want to go far from Edwin, especially now that at their table there was also Rio. It was also because Edwin asked, it was also what made Vira did not want to go from there, afraid that later his father would talk about strange things with the assistant.


The girl had already coded her papa to leave this table so that she could move and go anywhere. He had also longed for his distant relatives, who happened to be present today, but Edwin did not care about even saying that Vira could go from there. Of course the girl refused. In front of him Edwin talked all sorts of things about him, how about he leave. It was certain that his secret would be told to the assistant as well.


"Son Rio, already have a lover or fiancee or maybe a wife?" ask Edwin.


"I'm not married, sir. If it's about my lover, I don't have one either. I still haven't thought about that direction. Marriage is so complicated."


"Why do you think that? Wasn't every man and woman all destined to be in pairs. Will you live alone forever? That's impossible, right? Yes ... although your life is very well established, but as a man definitely needs a woman who can accompany him every day, prepare your daily needs, and make it work, also need a bedmate and warm your bed every night or maybe you like 'scrambles' out there?" Edwin looked at the man in front of him, waiting for an answer that would hopefully fit his wish.


Although Edwin's words slightly offended him. However, Rio as much as possible to keep smiling. He knew if the man in front of him was just asking, no offensive intentions or the like.


"Yes, you're right. Maybe one day I'll need a woman, just that right now I haven't thought about it. Regarding the 'jajan' outside, Alhamdulillah I am not a man who only prioritizes lust. Until now I have also not seen any woman who makes me really interested and want to have it. To be honest I envy Mr. Yasa, he loved the same woman from long ago. Though all this time he was surrounded by beautiful and great women, there was also the son of a businessman, but Mr. Yasa was not interested at all, instead more interested in an ex who had obviously been married. After I think back, maybe that's what love is, not thinking about how things are and conditions, those feelings remain the same unchanged, even growing bigger. I want to feel something like that too. Unfortunately, I didn't have a boyfriend."


Vira was stunned to hear the speech from Rio, who could think of things to that extent. He alone never thought about what reason his cousin and Yasa were reunited. It's just that the girl wants Adisti to be happy. Vira herself also has an ex-lover. However, the memories in it are not as beautiful as a romantic love story.


"Would you want to go home, too, following in Yasa's footsteps?" Edwin looked solemnly at Yasa's assistant.


Rio also looked at the man in front of him with a confused face. "What do you mean, sir?"


"Nothing I mean, I just ask, do you want to build a household after your boss?"


Rio nodded, trying to think positively if the man in front of him just asked. She had thought nothing of it, thinking that Edwin wanted her to marry Vira. However, after thinking about it it feels impossible. Who he is to think too far in that direction.


"For now I have not thought, but I do not know until when. Maybe tomorrow I'm getting married also don't know, no one knows the path of destiny right?" Rio drank his drink calmly.


Edwin nodded his head with a gaze that was still focused on Rio. "Yes, you're right. Don't you want to consider my daughter?" edwin's question immediately made Vira glare her eyes at the papa.


So was Rio who almost choked on his drink. The man also took turns staring at the boy and the father, not expecting to get an offer he never thought of at all.


"Papa, what the hell! Why ask like that?" ask Vira in a whisper.


The girl was so furious with her papa, she was so upset and felt her pride had been dropped just like that. She should have been the woman who had accepted such a statement, but now her father had offered her to a man instead.


Rio was confused, how could he get such an offer. Is not the same as a proposal, but how can the woman who proposed it first. Rio was not that cowardly either. If there was a woman he had assessed, he would have proposed first.


However, as a man he also appreciated Edwin's decision. A father must want the best for the princess, but also mirror himself in her there is nothing special, why the man chose her instead.


"What do you mean Miss Vira?" ask Rio.
