Tok tok!!
The knock on Ciara's bedroom door rang quite loud which made Ciara sleep disturbed. After finishing cooking with Mama Mila earlier, he chose to sleep first before his guests came because of his drowsiness is so great.
"Cia!" mama Mila shouted from outside the room.
"Yes Ma, beware," said Ciara as she glanced at the wall clock in the room that had shown at 1 noon. He widened his eyes when he remembered the Al he had to pick up.
Ciara now ran and opened the door of the room, making Mama Mila who was behind the door was shocked.
"Eh uh where are you going?" mama Mila asked as Ciara ran away like an evil person.
"You pick up Al, Ma. Al must have been waiting at school," replied Ciara with a shout because she had started to come down from the household.
"Al, already at home," said Mama Mila but apparently not heard by Ciara because the child was still running to reach the first floor. As he passed through the living room, everyone who was there stared at Ciara who seemed to be unaware of the surroundings. Until the moment he wanted to open the main door of the house, Al's screams stopped him.
"Mama, where are you going?" ask Al.
Ciara now turned her body towards the source of the sound and she could sigh in relief as Al was already standing in the living room. But wait, it seems Al is not alone or only with Papa Julian alone, but there is Devano and his family who are now staring at him.
"Why is there Devano, Mom and Dad here?" ciara said as she walked closer to them.
Papa Julian who was also there now saw the three guests were staring at Ciara without switching a bit, then he immediately stood up and approached the first princess.
"Ci, why are your clothes like this? it's not polite, boy, my God," whispered Papa Julian while blocking Ciara's body from seeing the three guests, especially Devano.
Ciara now lowered her head looking at the clothes she was wearing now, wearing only shorts far above the knee and a crop top that showed part of her smooth stomach. He smiled the horse at Papa Julian and a moment later he galloped towards his room again.
Brak!!
The door to his room was closed quite firmly. He deeply regrets the look of it. Thank goodness he did not come out with the clothes he always wore when young, it was only for his home. But what made him grumble, regretting it all because Devano's parents saw it. If Devano mah has seen the inside out so there is no need to be afraid anymore. But if his parents, he could be crossed off the list of prospective ghosts later.
"Arkh why were you wearing ginian clothes?" ciara Gerricks.
"Everyone play nyelonong run away. Though Mama was about to tell you to change clothes because her guest has come. Al thing, the handsome grandson has returned home delivered by Devano's men earlier," said Mama Mila who sat sweetly on Ciara's mattress.
"Astagfirullah, Mama ngagetin aja." Mama Mila just shook her shoulders and then she moved closer to Ciara.
"Nih wear it, and make it beautiful but do not take more than 15 minutes. Because they were waiting for you earlier. Sleep also ngebo really digedor-gedor not wake-up," said Mama Mila while walking out of Ciara's room.
"Eh Ma, stop. Why are Devano and his parents here?" ask Ciara kepo.
"They're the important people Mama talked about this morning. So be prepared not to make them wait any longer," replied Mama Mila and closed the door to Ciara's room just like that without allowing Ciara to ask her any deeper questions.
"Kok can Devano and his family become important people for this family problem. Or maybe they want to sue Papa because of last week's problems? Amit amit don't come." Ciara now immediately put on the clothes given by Mama Mila earlier then polish her face using powder and also lipstick that is so natural but her face still looks so beautiful and fresher again.
Ciara looked at her appearance using a knee-length dress, high heels that were in line with the dress she was wearing, plus her hair was just an outlet.
"Hmmm pretty. Feels to be an ABG again who has not had a son hihihi," muttered Ciara ended with a small oddity.
After that he went out of his room to the first floor, where guests and his parents had gathered there.
Devano's eyes are now inseparable from Ciara starting from the woman down the stairs to join in the living room.
"Mom knows Cia is beautiful, but Mom is afraid your eyeballs are coming out because look at Ciara all the way. Blink Dev," whispered Mommy Nina as she nudged Devano's arm.
Devano blinked his eyes then threw a smile at Ciara as their gazes met.
"What's wrong Ci, don't talk about it anymore" replied Mommy Nina who was embraced by Ciara.
"Sit in the middle here." Ciara again nodded towards the Mama and immediately took a seat directed by Mama Mila earlier.
"Ah yes, since all concerned have gathered. Let's talk directly about the engagement of Nak Devano and Ciara, as well" said Mama Mila enthusiastically.
Ciara who heard that suddenly she choked on her own saliva.
Uhuk uhuk uhuk!!
"Good, it's a drink." Mama Mila thrust the drink that has been served on the front desk to Ciara who was immediately struck and slowly Ciara drank.
After feeling quite light, Ciara put the glass back in her grasp then her eyes are now staring at the face of Devano, Mommy, Daddy who was in front of her then her gaze ended in the face of Papa Julian.
He bit his lower lip when Papa Julian didn't show any facial expression, just kept quiet. He was afraid that his father would return to his wrath because he knew that Papa Julian had not given his blessing in the relationship between Ciara and Devano.
While Papa Julian who felt himself continued to be looked at by Ciara also seemed indifferent.
"So how? where, when and how is the concept?" ask Mama Mila again.
"Emmm earlier I wanted to hear an answer from Ciara first Auntie."
"Oh yes please." Devano smiled then his gaze locked onto Ciara whose hand was tightly grasping the dress she was wearing.
"Ciara Devania Eveline do you want to have a domestic relationship with me?" ask Devano.
Ciara was eager to answer and accept the proposal but again she did not immediately dare to answer it and her eyes now look at Papa Julian.
For a while no word came out of Ciara's mouth to make Papa Julian cluck.
"Why do you even look at Papa? Answer that question. Do you want it or not?" papa Julian whispered. Ciara lowered her head, she seemed to know what kind of answer Papa Julian wanted.
"Sa--I can't-" said Ciara hanging when Papa Julian's voice sounded.
"Can't refuse and can't accept the engagement of son Devano because Ciara wants to get married soon" said Papa Julian with a facial expression that already looks different from the one before.
Ciara gawked at the words from Papa Julian earlier.
"If Papa disagrees. Ciara is not Papa, however, we can still be used to grow and develop Al until adulthood later. Ciara will not make Papa's decision," whispered Ciara. He was still afraid of Papa Julian's treatment of Devano. Fearing that he and Devano were married and living happily, Papa Julian tried to separate them.
"Who said Papa disagrees? Papa is sincere you are with Devano. Papa now just wants to see Papa's first child live a happy life" said Papa Julian.
"Why not lie, right? Cia doesn't like it when Papa lies." Papa Julian shook his head while smiling.
"Papa didn't lie to Ciara. Papa love your blessing to build a household and live forever in happiness. But if there's something that Devano did and hurt you, tell Papa if Papa later." Ciara smiled then hugged Papa Julian's body.
"Thank you Pa." Papa Julian nodded while stroking Ciara's hair.
For a while they still hugged each other until deheman Mama Mila let go of the hug.
"Sorry before Om, I want to make sure what Om said was true or Ciara wanted to reject me. So I need to hear the answer from Ciara's mouth straight away" Devano said.
Papa Julian nudged Ciara's arm with a smile that was replied with a shy smile by Ciara.
"Bismil was bornrahmanirrahim, I accepted your proposal, with the permission of God and the blessing of our parents," replied Ciara who made Devano smile widely as well as the parents of both parties.
