THE SECRET OF EDMOND'S LOVE
Meet the prospective husband

"Let's get off!" take the Princess with her seatbelt.

Mahira was still silent without any movement to make the Princess look at her best friend.

"Ra, don't tell me you changed your mind. Remember the fate of Oma Yohana at home."

Mahira's heart feels like it's coming off. He looked at the beautiful house in front of him. This is one of the reasons why he did not want to be with Edmond. The man came from a rich family. While Teddy's parents are not as rich as Edmond's parents.

"I'm ashamed, Put."

"Why embarrassed?"

"I used to reject it. Even a little rude I once spoke to him. How now should I beg him to save my good name? Maybe we shouldn't have come here. Let's go!"

"What if you're really pregnant?"

Mahira's face suddenly turned pale. He looked back at the magnificent house. "Why should we meet here?"

"You didn't want to when Edmond asked us to meet at the restaurant. You said you were afraid to see people. I want to meet you at the hotel, too. Yeah, safest in Edmond's house."

Mahira looked at her watch. It's 5 in the afternoon. Earlier after work, the Princess had invited him here because Edmond had kept his promise. He came straight the next day. The man had just arrived at 3pm at the airport and immediately contacted the Princess.

"Come, Ra. Don't make Edmond wait any more." The princess patted Mahira's hand before getting out of the car.

Still with doubts, Mahira also opened her seatbelt and went down with the Princess.

Before the two knocked on the door of the house, the owner opened it first.

"Hi.....!" Greet Edmond with a sweet smile. That guy is still like before. Handsome, full of charm and looks more macho with jaws overgrown with fine hair.

"Hallo, Brother Ed." The princess who took the initiative returned the greeting.

Edmond looked at Mahira who looked down. "Mahira, how are you?"

Mahira raised her face slowly. Trying to smile even though he is actually very shy and nervous.

"Good, brother."

"Let's go in!" Edmond widened the door leaf and let the two girls go first. He closed the door and followed the two girls.

"Let's sit down!" bring Edmond.

"No one's home, brother?" ask the Princess when she sees the atmosphere of a quiet house.

"It's been 5 months daddy same mommy in Spain. Mommy's on medication and Daddy's in business there. The only people who live in this house are my cousin and 2 servants. My cousin's working and she's coming home maybe night. While the two servants deliberately I told to go for a walk so that we are free to tell a story here." Answer Edmond.

"Oh, is that it? Then I'll leave you two?" Princess stands.

"Where are you going, Put?" mahira asked in panic and stood up.

"I'm just going to the kitchen and find some food. You guys just talk. Brother Ed, can I eat? You know, after lunch break, I just ate a piece of cake."

Edmond nodded. "Know the kitchen, right?"

"Know dong. I'll have been here a few times." The princess said and left immediately.

In the past, Edmond had invited Princess and Mahira here several times. When Edmond's sister was 17, when Edmond's birthday and when his parents celebrated their 25th wedding year.

Mahira himself only comes once. It was after Edmond begged him for fitting in the moment of Edmond's birthday. Teddy was invited too. And Edmond looks disappointed when Mahira actually comes with Teddy.

After being left by the Princess, Edmond who was originally sitting opposite Mahira, now moved his place next to Mahira.

"You've done the test?" asked Edmond gently. It's still like old times.

"Yet, brother. My date will be next week." Mahira answered trying to get rid of the nervousness in her heart.

"Don't do any tests until we're married. So that I'll feel that the boy is mine. We'll do the test together after our marriage."

"Sister, I'm actually ashamed of you. I'm...."

"Don't be shy!" Edmond unexpectedly held Mahira's right hand. Spontaneous Mahira would pull him but Edmond held him back. "I wonder first, is it true that you are willing to marry me?"

"Sister, you know that this marriage happened because I was probably pregnant."

"OKs. But what about you? Do you want to live a married life with me properly? Because I don't want marriage to be a game. I want you to be my wife. I'll help you in my way as your husband to make you forget about that jerk who left you."

"If we're married, you can bring Oma Yohana to live with us in this house."

Mahira remained silent. Honestly, he was confused.

"Mahira, I will accept you as you are without bringing up your past. Just one request of mine, if you're already my wife, don't ever get involved with your past."

Mahira looked up at Edmond. Does this guy really love him like he used to? Or is this just an obsession that is not fulfilled and now wants to be achieved? Or is there something she wants at this wedding?

"You're quiet, which means you're ready to go to marriage with me, right?"

"Give me two weeks to prepare everything. Tomorrow night I'll come to your house to propose to you. The day after tomorrow, I have to go back to Borneo. I'll give up all our wedding business from WO which is my brother's. They're famous in this town."

"Two weeks from now? Isn't that too soon?" ask Mahira.

"Are you going to wait until they find out you're pregnant and you're getting married? I agree with Edmond." The princess suddenly interjected.

"But, Put." Mahira was doubtful.

Edmond who was still holding Mahira's right hand tightened his hand to make Mahira was forced to look at Edmond. "Two weeks from now or not at all. I don't have much time because I have so much work, Mahira."

Mahira was surprised to hear Edmond's threatening tone. "I....!"

"Sir Ed, we are waiting for your arrival at Mahira's house tomorrow night." The princess looked at her best friend while glaring.

Edmond nodded. He kissed Mahira's hand. "See you tomorrow, baby."

Mahira felt her hair stand up. He immediately pulled his hand from Edmond's grasp and immediately stood up.

"Let's go home, Put. Oma has to take her medicine."

The princess looked at Edmond. "We go first, yes brother."

Mahira immediately stepped up without daring to look at Edmond again. The feeling became chaotic. The shadow of Teddy's face is now like it's stuck in his eye patch.

Along the way to the house, Mahira seems silent.

"Ra, I'm not coming down, am I? You'll immediately deliver Edmond's arrival tomorrow night."

Mahira just nodded. He went down and waved his hand at his best friend before the Princess disappeared in her car.

It just so happens that Frans and Aunt Wulan are sitting on the front porch enjoying coffee.

"Good night, om, auntie!" Sapa Mahira's.

"Good night, son. Just got home from work?" frans asked lovingly to his nephew.

"yes om. Oh yes, Mahira wants to talk something." said Mahira then took a seat in front of them.

"What's wrong?" ask Wulan looks a little dislike. She did not want her husband to be too close to Mahira. Mahira's mother was Frans' sister.

"Tomorrow night, my girlfriend wants to come here and propose to me."

"The Teddy?" ask Wulan. He knows Mahira's boyfriend. Teddy is a handsome guy. The rich man's son. Wulan once hoped that Teddy would like one of her daughters.

"No. Name's Edmond. Edmond Moreno." said Mahira a little afraid. The problem is that they only know Teddy as the only man who has ever been close to Mahira.

"Edmond Moreno's? Is he the son of the owner of Moreno hotel and Supermarket hotels throughout Indonesia? If it's not wrong his father Adriges Moreno and his mother Rachel Tambayong right?" guess Frans.

"Yes. Om."

"Know where are you?" asked Wulan suspiciously.

"Edmond and I have known each other for a long time. We are from the same university. When Teddy and I broke up a few months ago, Edmond came back close to me. And since he was busy with his work in Borneo, he had never been here." Mahira tried to speak casually. He was grateful because since Teddy moved to Singapore with his parents, Teddy never came to this house again. If Teddy goes home to Manado, he'd rather take Mahira to his apartment or a way out. Teddy never liked the Mahira family except Oma Yohana.

"Prepare yourself well, son. We'll be waiting for your future husband tomorrow."

Mahira smiled at the words of Frans. Then, excuse me to go to his room.

"Is the Moreno family a wealthy family? Richer than Teddy's family?" ask Wulan curiously.

"The Moreno family is one of the richest families in Asia. Indeed, their business in Indonesia is just a hotel and Supermarket. But the Moreno family in Spain was a wealthy and well-respected noble family with a lot of business."

Damnit damnit! It was fortunate that Guman Wulan was in his heart.
