Saturday morning Azmya had just finished taking a shower, her mother knocked on her door. Azmya opened the door and was surprised to see mommy's face that seemed like she was winning the lottery.
"Unfortunately, hurry up and wear the best clothes, there is already someone waiting for you below!" Orders her mom very enthusiastic.
"Who are him?" Asked Azmya curiously.
"Who else, if not Sena, is here, any way you have to dress up beautifully and wear pretty clothes too," ordered her mommy.
Azmya just nodded slowly. It turns out that the episodes of her having to meet Sena more often just started. Halfheartedly Azmya opened her wardrobe. She also chooses what clothes to wear today. She also only chose a plain white long shirt with a peach-colored knee-length accordion skirt. She didn't want to show a beautiful and graceful impression in front of Sena. She just wants to show her usual appearance and what is usual every day is always like this. If she obeys the words of her mom, she must wear a pretty dress or dress and dress up beautifully. She only wore ordinary clothes with natural make-up. She only uses moisturizer and a little sunscreen on her face and she polishes her lips with a natural pink lip cream. Azmya then looked at the reflection of her face in the mirror.
"This is enough." Azmya is quite satisfied with her makeup.
Then she went out of her room and went down to the first floor. Below, in the family room, Sena seemed to be laughing with her father. It seems like something fun and funny makes them laugh out loud. The sound of Azmya's shoes made them stop laughing.
"Gosh, what messy clothes are you wearing, dear!" Cried, mommy. She suddenly came from the kitchen carrying a tray of drinks for the guest who came.
"Ah mommy, I have to wear nice clothes," Azmya frowned and approached her dad and slammed her ass roughly beside her dad. Sena saw that only smiled a little.
"Good morning Azmya!" Said Sena kindly.
"Morning Uncle Sena."
Her mother immediately pinched Azmya's waist when Azmya called Sena with Uncle.
"What the heck ?," Asked Azmya protested that her waist was pinched.
"The polite, dear, don't call it Uncle!" Whispered her mommy in Azmya's ear.
Sena, who only heard the whispered whisper, was laughing again.
"It's okay, let Azmya call me Uncle, I'm also older than her," said Sena, who seemed to understand Azmya's mom whisper.
"Better to call Abang, or Oppa!" Cried her daddy.
"Yes, Oppa is better than Uncle, you know that Sena is actually Korean descent," said Mommy.
"Korean descent, what. Oppa?" Azmya looked at Sena from the tip of his feet and head. Very tall like an electric pole. His skin is brown, his face is handsome. His eyes do not have eyelids like real Koreans. But where are there dark-skinned Korean people? Isn't it usually white?
Sena, who saw Azmya from the bottom up, was sure that the girl did not believe that he was of Korean descent.
"I am indeed dark-skinned because I often work outside which is exposed to direct sunlight, and I am also a lazy person wearing sunblock" said Sena.
Azmya feels surprised that it is the second time Sena can read her mind. Even though she didn't talk about his dark skin problem.
"Oh, but I still call Oppa, I'm an Indonesian, he's also Indonesian, that's fine." Azmya became embarrassed because Sena seemed to know what she was thinking.
"Azmy, don't be like that!" Cried Mommy, she didn't like it.
"It's okay, she can call whatever she wants, Ma'am, later too will change to call me with nampyeon, "Sena teased Azmya.
Azmya who knows what nampyoen (husband) means is only embarrassed. Seeing that Sena seemed to be smiling with satisfaction seeing Azmya who was embarrassed.
"Sena actually I still want to chat with you, but I have to go first with my wife because there is already an appointment with my friend," said dad, making Azmya widen her eyes. Why Daddy and mommy suddenly want to come out. This feeling is a weekend that should be shared with family. And she had to be left with a man alone at home. Where is the moral they let their daughter alone at home?
Hasn't had time for Azmya to say anything. Her parents will always leave them both in the family room.
"Dad, Mom, don't go!" Said Azmya in a choked voice like a kindergarten child who had just entered the school and had left her parents in the class.
"Mommy and Daddy will come home later in the afternoon, if you want to have lunch, just take Sena out looking for food in a nice place, he doesn't know all the roads in this town," said her mom.
"Mom, that's how it is," said Azmya, frowning. Meanwhile, Sena was just being relaxed and not feeling awkward. Azmya is afraid that she is only at home with Sena.
"Don't worry Azmya, I'm not going to mess around, don't play like that!" Sena said for the umpteenth time as if he knew what she was thinking.
Azmya just stared at Sena while folding her arms as if she was watching after her parents left.
"Can he read my mind?" Azmya asked, squinting at Sena.
Meanwhile, Sena only looks relaxed and doesn't seem to care about Azmya glaring at him.
"If he can, I try to think, can he still read my mind?."
Don't try to show off your handsome face because for me Jun is the most handsome. She kept saying those words in her mind to test whether Sena could read them. Or just coincidence.
"Don't stare, you can hurt your eyes because you keep seeing my handsome face!" Sena said too narcissistically.
Azmya sneered. It turns out that Sena is the type of guy who is confident. And it turned out that Sena couldn't read her mind. Which means it's just a coincidence. Sena then got up from his seat and asked where the toilet was.
"Why, why do you suddenly want to pee?" Teased Azmya. Sena who saw Azmya teasing him was quite anxious about Azmya too.
"Quickly tell me, I'll pee here later!" Threatened Sena trying to joke.
Azmya looks at pretending to be disgusted but then Azmya points to a direction. Sena immediately went to the direction Azmya pointed at.
As long as Sena is in the toilet. Azmya is pacing back and forth like an iron. She was wondering how to avoid getting into this awkward situation. Did she just take him out of the house, it seems like the idea is not worse than in the house, it's a bit scary, how about just being alone with Sena? There are house assistants, but most of them are behind the house.
"What are you doing?" Asked Sena who had come back from the toilet.
"Oh, no, I think it's better if we just leave the house and get some fresh air!" Said Azmya.
"Where?" Asked Sena a little lazily.
"Oh yeah, let's just go to the city park, there's Singles Park, Old Age Park, I think we'll go there!" Said Azmya, looking very pushy and caught awkwardly with Sena.
"Do not want."
"Why?"
"It's not wrong you took me there?"
"So what?"
"The Singles Park is specifically for single people, surely those who come there are singles, I don't want if we come there to make singles there bite their fingers, so what was that Elderly Park, do you think I'm an elderly person who should be brought there?" protested Sena.
Azmya just stared at what Sena said earlier. It seemed that Sena was used to it and already considered Azmya his lover. While she was not ready to accept a situation like this. Seeing Azmya gawking like that, Sena dared to ruffle the hair on Azmya's head, which had been stunned. Azmya realized that Sena had already touching ship on her.
Azmya becomes even more uncomfortable.
"Let's just chat here!" Said Sena back to sit on the sofa. Azmya just froze, confused what to do.
"Or do we go to your room?" Asked Sena naughty.
"What, don't be resigned!" Said Azmya angrily heard Sena taking her to the room.
"Why don't be negative thinking first, I just want to know what your room is like, it's clean and tidy, then I also want to know if there is a collection of books there, or whatever, I just want to know the habits of my future wife by looking at her room, if the room is messy right? what kind of person does it reflect? "Sena said at length.
"Candidate wife, ouuuuh I am in fact his future wife!" Said Azmya in her heart full of regret. She wasn't ready and she wasn't sure if he had made the right decision.
"What are you thinking, I'll invite you to the room?" Asked Sena, winking his eyes mischievously.
"Ah, no, I don't think anything," replied Azmya, stuttering.
"Don't you think about going there again?" Said Sena, laughing ignorantly.
"Ah never mind, let's go to the room!" Asked Azmya to give in and give up with Sena who could always be speechless.
"What, are you inviting me to your room now?" Said Sena crossing his arms over his chest trying to cover his chest as if Azmya was going to fuck him.
"Oh, what the heck!" Said Azmya uncomfortably but in her heart, she laughed because Sena is a fast acquaintance and can immediately adapt to her. It was as if they had known each other for a long time.
"I swear yes, I got goosebumps just now you invited me to the room, "said Sena chuckled following Azmya's steps up the stairs to the floor of her room.
"Watch out, you don't mess around if you mess around you can be battered with my karate!" Azmya threatened. Azmya is climbing the stairs at the front while Sena follows her from behind.
"No, just one thing, kissing!" Sena answered carelessly and indeed only intended to joke with Azmya.
Hearing that Azmya was angry and stopped and immediately turned her body backward. But Azmya was immediately shocked and stopped breathing. When Sena who was behind her stood behind and didn't know that Azmya stopped walking, they almost bumped their faces into each other. With Sena's height which is like an electric pole even though the stairs are one floor apart, Sena and Azmya are almost a fraction of an inch their faces meet. Azmya is holding her breath because Sena's face is too close to hers. A split second also Azmya saw the handsome face of Sena who saw her with the same shock too. Didn't expect that they could get that close to a situation like this. Azmya immediately turned around and felt embarrassed. She also stepped back upstairs. Sena was still frozen, it seemed she was also shocked. He was just talking about the kiss that happened, he almost kissed Azmya earlier.
"Uncle Sena ... so go up or not!" Said Azmya calling him uncle again. Sena smiled happily to hear that. Because Azmya is indeed a nosy and careless girl when she talks. It seemed like she would never get bored with Azmya who was like this.
"Course."
*** **** ***
Azmya should have messed up her room earlier so that Sena would mistake her for a dirty person. So Sena will think about making her a wife again. But and Sena instead found her room neat and fragrant. Sena went around the corner of her room checking the windows, looking under her bed, looking at her bookshelf and dresser. Just the cleaning supervisor. Azmya just looked at him lazily.
Sena arrived at the edge of the bedside drawer table. He grabbed a book that was on it. Azmya slightly widened her eyes when Sena took Jun's novel book.
"Wow, I've read this novel several times, have you also read a novel like this?" Sena asked in awe.
Azmya was unable to answer. Because she really didn't want to tell me anything about the book. She still keeps the book for many years and it feels like the book should go back to its owner.
"In my opinion, this novel theory really happens around us, yes, sometimes some people's happiness must be redeemed by someone's misery", said Sena telling the contents of the book.
Azmya ignored Sena who commented on the novel at length. She only thought about Jun again. Without realizing it, Sena also seemed to see that Azmya her mind was floating somewhere. She stopped babbling too.
"Hello, is there anyone?" Sena exclaimed, breaking her reverie.
"Sorry Jun!" Said Azmya reflexively. Makes Sena frown. A name that he heard earlier was very clear. Jun.
"What, Jun?" Asked Sena back.
"What, oh- that," Azmya realized that she was mistaken. But it's useless he reasoned. Surely Sena knew that she was thinking about someone else.
"Just relax, don't be burdened, is he the one who made you cry by the lake yesterday? "asked Sena.
Azmya doesn't want to answer. I don't know what to tell about Jun. If she told him, maybe she would feel uncomfortable. But if she doesn't tell a story, this could lead to misunderstanding as well.
Because Azmya doesn't want to answer it. Sena relented and patiently waited until Azmya told him one day.
"Let's just go to the mall, usually when a girl is invited to the mall, she won't refuse."
"Agree!"
Without further ado, Azmya agrees to Sena's plan to take her to the mall. The important thing is they can get out of the house and avoid awkward situations like that. The two of them finally went out to one of the malls in Bandung.
Sena seemed to feel a little disappointed when Azmya called out the name of a boy in front of him. Is he jealous? Maybe.
