Raihan is determined to keep Viola as his life partner. Not another woman even though it was her mother's choice. And she remains opposed to the arranged marriage arranged by her mother.
But of course he is not directly against the matchmaking. She did not want to hurt her mother's feelings even though the wounds her mother had made against her had not healed properly.
Dr. Kenzie, his sister-in-law told him that Ms Retno had only been cured of her heart disease for a month. And the disease can be at any time relapsed if the feeling is not good, or something hurts his feelings.
Hence Dr. Kenzie tells Raihan to keep his mother feeling. Do not take any action or say anything that hurts her mother's feelings. So that made his mother's disease recur again.
And Raihan cares about Dr. That kenzie. He will still care about his mother's feelings, and put aside the wounds his mother had scratched in the past.
Raihan will still pretend as if he accepted the match in front of his mother, even though his little heart did not accept it.
But for a while.... Yes temporarily, as long as his mother's feelings stay awake. As he thought about how to avoid the match without hurting his mother's feelings.
Of course he will talk about this problem to his cousin and best friend, Bayu Anggara Mulyono. He didn't want to involve Michella in talking about it, for a while.
Meanwhile, the night continued to grow late....
Raihan came home about 10 o'clock. After getting out of his car, he just let the luxury sedan car in front of the porch of the house which will be inserted by the housekeeper into the garage.
The handsome young man continued to step wide a little quickly. Once he entered the house he met a maid who seemed to approach him.
"Wood is in his room, Ma'am?" ask Raihan directly.
"Nothing, Den," said the ART politely. "Den Bayu is in the back garden with Non Sela."
"O yes, thank you, Ma'am."
"You want a drink, Den?" ask the maid to offer.
"No need," Raihan refused gently and kindly.
Then Raihan resumed his steps that had stopped. As for the female maid, after her young master had passed, she went towards the living room. Looks like they're about to lock the door.
While Raihan just kept walking which is now towards the back door of the house. And not long after, he had arrived and was in the back porch.
From where he stood he could see Bayu and Michella sitting in the middle of a small garden while chatting. Sayup-sayup heard their chatter.
Please note that, the location of the back garden of the house is in front of the rear foyer on the right. On the left is a swimming pool.
Raihan can see that between Bayu and Michella has become familiar. They seemed to be talking to each other so casually and loosely, as if the two young people had known each other for a long time. They just met this afternoon.
Is that a sign they are fighting?
The question was immediately raised in Raihan's mind. And after thinking about it, he was immediately ambushed by doubts about his intention to meet Bayu.
Will she keep talking about her and Michella's matchmaking with Bayu? What if Bayu and Michella already like each other?
Of course, he will damage their relationship if they still force themselves to talk about the matchmaking to Bayu.
Surely Bayu will succumb to his brother, and forced to support the matchmaking even though Bayu has liked Michella. Suppose....
★☆★☆
Thinking about it and after considering his benefits, Raihan postponed his intention to meet Bayu tonight. He will talk about his match with Michella to Bayu someday.
The important thing tonight is that he put off his intentions. He let Bayu and Michella enjoy the night alone.
Finally, shortly after that Raihan went back into the house, and went straight to his room. He wanted to quickly go to sleep tonight and forget for a moment about the matter of matchmaking.
Meanwhile Bayu and Michella continue to talk to each other as if their conversation does not end.
They tell each other about themselves and their families. And the more detailed telling about it is Michella, especially about her.
Michella would rather tell Bayu about herself. It was as if the girl did not want to hide who she was to Bayu. Until the story of her who once dated, but now it has broken up.
Why is Michella so easy to open up about herself to people she just met? Is it a sign that he is starting to like Bayu?
Is it that fast?
I don't know what is felt at this time, which is clear Michella feel comfortable and peaceful if with Bayu. If it is as a sign that he started or even has liked Bayu, he does not feel worried or anxious. He's even very happy.
And if you're honest, Michella has started to like Bayu. But he didn't want to get too late in the excitement. Moreover, he did not want to express his feelings first.
He has to keep the image a little. Later Bayu thought she was a girl. Newly known has expressed feelings. Hold on first! Or maybe Bayu doesn't even like it because he already has a girlfriend. Suppose....
While Bayu also not too detailed tell about his family. While about him actually not too detailed. But he told me the important thing about his life journey.
Like telling me that he has always been with Raihan since they were kids until now. Both live bitter-sweet life until success until now.
Bayu also told me that he had never dated. He just focus on living life with Raihan and will always be a shield for Raihan from all the interference of bad people.
Besides, he doesn't like women. It's just that with her poor state, she became insecure about dating. Especially when approaching a girl.
★☆★☆
"What about your current situation?" michella said in response to Bayu. "Within. lu'kan now already successful, of course already a lot of money. Are you still insecure about dating?"
"Wherever I have to find a life partner," Bayu said in a wise tone. "Wherever I am. Isn't that like that?"
"Yes, that's what it is," Michella said. "You don't have to be inferior, no matter what your circumstances are."
"BTW...., what kind of girl would you like to be a life partner?" michella asked next like fishing and testing. "Is she the perfect girl, then?"
"There is no perfect man in this world, Sela," said Bayu again in a wise tone. "Each of us has shortcomings in addition to their advantages."
Michella was quite touched by Bayu's wise speech. Makes him more amazed at himself a Bayu.
"Yaaa. if that's me also know anyway," said Michella honestly. "Cuman. You must have dong specifications. Maybe.must be beautiful. Or from a rich chick, just like you."
"Gue is not a grandiose target for me to be a life partner" said Bayu honestly. "It is important to keep each other loyal, honest, and understanding each other...."
"If you?" bayu said next asking while looking at Michella for a moment. "What kind of guy do you want to be your boyfriend?"
"Yes, just like you" Michella said spontaneously, "who is faithful, honest, and understanding."
"Lu follow me?" tegur Bayu as serious.
"Yeee... What did you follow?" michella put on an upset face but also smiled. "Isn't everyone's dream?"
Bayu only glanced at the beautiful girl for a moment while showing off her charming smile. And Michella was so happy to see Bayu smiling like that. The cold young man rarely smiled.
Then the two young people again dissolved in a casual and light chatter. But Michella asked about Raihan. While Bayu only tells briefly and outline only.
Including saying that Raihan had dated, even twice. But Bayu did not specify Raihan was dating with whom and how. And Michella wasn't too pragmatic about Raihan either.
While until now Michella has not told Bayu that in fact the young man she was betrothed to was Raihan.
While Bayu also did not raise the issue in their chat. It was as if Bayu was not so interested in who Michella was betrothed to.
After they were satisfied talking, they both went into the house. The time they entered was about 12 and a half. It means not so long after Raihan entered the house.
