I ride my only red automatic motorbike to accompany my every trip, anywhere, which is now returning home after working all day. The journey from my house to the office is not that far. It took about 45 minutes to get home. it can also be less if I'm speeding. When I arrived at my yard, I was shocked to see the apparition that was there, unusual, there were two luxury cars parked neatly there, I really had never seen a guest in my house as luxurious as this before. Who's in my house? So far, there has never been a colleague or friend of Father's who played home with luxury cars like this? why didn't Mom or Dad tell me? My heart pounded as I stepped closer to my door.
What if it was the Royan family? what should I do in front of them, it's nothing, my face is red with fear and emits a sad smell. I won't be able to speak when facing them all. How about this? The door to my house seemed half closed and half open, so I could still peek from a distance to get a glimpse of who was inside. I crept slowly, I heard them all laughing loudly. I don't know what they were talking about. I couldn't really hear it, but I could see clearly from the outside, sitting on the edge was a very beautiful woman who was really well groomed. Her face smooth white all skin all over. Her hands move with her nails wearing fiery red nail polish, wearing a dress that I find elegant to look at, from the side her nose is sharp and her lips are very small, who is she? Okay! I'll just go in.
"Assalamu'alaikum" My voice broke their conversation, made everyone stop talking and immediately all eyes turned to me with a happy look, it seemed that I was being waited on. Everyone answered my greetings in unison.
"Sit down Nez, we're talking about you" my father said after I greet to my parents, I who had no choice at my father's orders immediately sat down, in a state not yet bathed and still disheveled. I looked at the woman from a close distance, really beautiful and smooth These ladies, her make up fits her face with very curly eyelashes, it must be very expensive for the cost of body and skin care every month, she looks young from her age is probably my mother's age, hee face is beaming, I am no more amazed when I see the middle-aged man beside her. Yes ... maybe his husband. He as a gentleman. I can also say Handsome and very authoritative, his skin is also white like not a native Indonesian, much different from my father's skin color. There must be a half-blood from the lines of his face, his body is sturdy and much taller than my father, his slightly blonde hair looks neat to look at. Where do you know my father? and who they are. why so familiar My heart is getting erratic.
What surprised me even more was that Royan suddenly appeared from behind the curtain in the living room of my house. Suddenly my breath seemed to stop. It turned out that he had just come from the bathroom. It turned out that my guess was right. He looked at me from that direction until he came closer and sat next to this middle-aged man in front of me, it must be his father.
"Hey Nez, why are you looking at him like that? Just on our first date. ahahah" First date!!! I met you once, I immediately slapped you!!! Huh, annoyed ... he said it was a date.
"Don't be surprised, they are my Papa-Mama. We are waiting for an invitation from Dad. it turns out that it can only be done today, you have been waiting for a long time huh?" Royan's teasing made my face pale, which seemed to be able to read what was in my brain, he answered directly.
"Don't be angry either, because no one told you first. I forbid you to call. I like surprises. Again, I want my Papa and Mama to also know how you look when you're unpolished, after work is a tiring condition, so surely your face won't show up. it was polished again because I haven't taken a shower, right? it doesn't matter to me, it looks beautiful" everyone suddenly laughed with joy and I just remained silent and sure enough, I couldn't say anything,
"I want them to know how you first met me, yes like this Ma, Pa, dull face, appearance is also unattractive, which can't be forgotten he is very curt Ma. I was really surprised! really don't care about her image. Most women will be sweetened and spoken softly to attract the hearts of men she meets. Most women who meet me will go to the salon for hours and wear their best clothes with piles of polish to look beautiful ! it's too much, but she's different. She, who like yesterday, made me fall in love with her, shows herself as she is. Even her voice is very loud and there is no softness, I'm more attracted to her, knowing the authenticity of hee character will make it easier for Royan to bond marriage later. Rather than sweet acquaintances but when you know the real thing is like a lion, right?" he continued with a laugh.
"Hahaha..." everyone laughed out loud with the jokes he made, what's so funny, everyone laughed out loud, while I already wanted to cry just being here. He kept on talking without stopping, I also don't know what to say in this awkward situation.
"That's how Royan, after getting to know you, you keep on telling him, even though to be honest, Riyanto. I gave several choices of girls for Royan to choose, he has met all of them, but only Inez__your daughter is his heart's choice. I also feel that is right. You are a girl who beautiful and kind, obedient, there are also many good things in you," said her mother.
"Yes, even I was surprised to see Royan's drastic change. He became a diligent and better child after getting to know you," added his Papa.
Are they the same type of family? everyone likes to tease. I was confused, the feeling I didn't do anything to him, didn't even meet him for an hour, only cursed words, why are they praising me? what an obscure family
"Say something Inez, don't be shy" Royan teased me again. I felt like I was in a classroom and being pointed by the teacher to come forward even though I was in a state of sleep, confused and uncertain, but everyone was staring at me as if waiting for me to say a word.
"I ... I want to ask Auntie"
"Eits, Mama... don't Auntie, we'll soon be a family" Mama Royan interrupted instantly.
"Yes, Ma ... I see your family is very high class, how can you find a candidate from someone like me, it feels strange and there must be a lot of classy women who want Royan?" I just said what I wanted to ask. Again the Royan family laughed again at my question. Is there something wrong?
