Chapter 12 - Accept or Reject?

Birds chirping greets Jingga. Yes, you can be sure if today is very bright. Jingga should be excited today because Adisty said that their boutique was very busy with shoppers, but Mrs. Dwi broke that enthusiasm who said that the Keane family would come to the orphanage tomorrow night to get answers from Jingga.

"Jingga, let's get ready, today there will be a lot of people going to our boutique," said Adisty who saw Jingga engrossed in his thoughts in his bedroom window while Adisty had just finished taking a shower.

"Yes, Adisty, I want to take a shower first," said Jingga.

"It must be because of the matchmaking, right?" said Adisty.

"Yes you are right, I feel bad in this position," said Jingga.

"I'm sure you will love each other. Mr. Arseno will definitely love you Jingga, I'm sure of that," said Adisty for sure.

"I hope so," said Jingga.

"But I don't think so, Mr. Arseno already said don't involve feelings because this marriage is only a temporary marriage."

"Is it true that Mr. Arseno said that? It turns out that he is really cruel," said Adisty.

Jingga and Adisty were silent together. "Take a shower, we will immediately go to the boutique," said Adisty who was very excited to go to the boutique.

"Okay, I'll take a shower soon," said Jingga.

Sunday night came, the thing that worried Jingga the most, when he saw the Keane family's car parked in the yard of the Dwi Hasanah orphanage.

"Jingga, the Keane family has arrived, how come you haven't changed your clothes yet," said Adisty who saw Jingga peeking behind the window.

"I know Adisty, here I am seeing them coming," said Jingga.

"Then why are you still here? Let's get ready and immediately meet them," said Adisty who moved Jingga to get ready immediately.

"Yes. I'm ready Adisty," answered Jingga.

15 minutes passed now Jingga walked to the guest house in his simple clothes. Jingga saw that there were already Mr. David, Mrs. Diva, Young Master Arseno, Miss Yuriza, Mrs. Dwi and Mrs. Sri.

"Jingga, you finally came," said Mrs. Dwi.

Jingga really understands that look, Mrs. Dwi must be really waiting for Jiggga's presence. Yes, it's only natural because Jingga has made the Keane family wait for 15 minutes.

"Sit down, Jingga, it doesn't matter, we just waited 15 minutes," said Mrs. Diva.

Jingga felt bad, not to Arseno but to Mrs. Diva.

Jingga immediately sat on the sofa next to Mrs. Diva.

"Okay, let's get straight to it, a few days ago we came here to convey the match between Jingga and Arseno, and today we are asking for answers from Arseno and Jingga for the matchmaking that will be carried out. Now maybe Arseno will convey the answer and then continue it by Jingga," explained Mr. David Keane.

"Okay, I accept this matchmaking," said Arseno briefly.

Mrs. Diva immediately looked happy to hear her daughter's answer.

"Then, how about you Jingga?" asked Mr. David.

"Hmm sir..." said Jingga nervously.

Jingga also raised his head and looked straight at Arseno's face. Arseni looked at Jingga meaningfully.

'Oh God, help me, what answer should I say, but seeing the look in Mr. Arseno's gaze, it seems that I will be finished if I refuse this matchmaking,' thought Jingga.

"Orange, come on, answer!" said Mrs. Dwi.

"Okay Mr. David, Mrs. Diva, I accept this match," said Jingga.

"Thank God," said Mrs. Diva happily.

"Okay so when are we going to have this wedding? 2 more weeks right?" said Mrs. Diva.

"What? Married? In 2 weeks?", Jingga was shocked.

"Yes, he is married. Of course, this matchmaking is for the direction of marriage," said Arseno.

'I know too, Mister Arseno. But I mean does everything have to be this fast? 2 weeks for the wedding? Does this sound impossible?' Jingga thought.

"As long as you calm down, we will take care of everything, you don't have to think about anything," said Mrs. Diva.

'Yes, I almost forgot, if my future husband is a rich person who has a lot of money, so getting married in 2 weeks is not a difficult thing for his family,' Jingga thought.

"Mrs. Diva, I'm not feeling well," said Jingga.

'This woman is very good at seeking sympathy from my parents,' thought Arseno.

"Jingga, you're already a future son-in-law in the Keane family so don't feel bad, okay?" said Mrs. Diva.

Jingga smiled hearing Mrs. Diva's words.

'I feel really annoyed to see him smile,' thought Arseno.

"Mr. David and Mrs. Diva, we have prepared food, if you wish we can eat the food that we have provided," said Mrs. Sri.

"Okay, we will eat here. Come on Pa, Yuriza and Arseno," said Mrs. Diva who immediately followed Mrs. Sri's steps to take food, followed by Yuriza and Mr. David.

Now in the living room, there are only two of Arseno and Jingga.

"Heh, you didn't forget our agreement did you?" said Arseno who lowered his voice for fear of being heard by his parents.

"Of course I remember Mr. Arseno very well," said Jingga.

"That's good, and remember not to involve the feelings of our marriage if you don't want to be crushed by hope," said Arseno.

"Okay, Mr. Arseno," said Jingga.

'Who would fall in love with a cruel person like you sir?' Jingga thought.

"Mr. Arseno, your family is already behind, let's go there," said Jingga.

Without replying to Jingga's words, Arseno immediately stood up and walked towards the food court.

'Oh God, please help yourself to face people like that,' thought Jingga.

1 hour passed, they ate together and the Arseno family prepared to go home. Jingga, Mrs. Dwi and Mrs. Sri escorted the Keane family to the front yard of the orphanage.

"Jingga, let's go home first," said Mrs. Diva.

"Yes, Mrs. Diva, thank you very much for visiting," said Jingga.

"You're welcome. Orange, your wedding is in 2 weeks, so maybe tomorrow or the day after we will go to your wedding dress, and for invitations, buildings and others you don't have to worry," said Mrs. Diva.

Jingga was silent when he heard Mrs. Diva's words. 'The Sultan is different,' thought Jingga.

"Mrs. Diva, I thank you very much for being proud to accept our daughter, Jingga," said Bu Dwi.

"No, it doesn't matter, we are the ones who should be grateful for raising a beautiful girl who is very kind, I hope that this can strengthen our brotherhood," said Mrs. Diva.

'Mrs. Diva and Mr. David, I am very worried what if Jingga finds out everything, but I will promise never to tell the truth,' thought Mrs. Dwi.

'This marriage will take place soon, I hope the past will be buried by their love in the future and I will make sure they love each other,' thought Mrs. Diva.

"Okay then, let's go home first, Mrs. Dwi, Mrs. Sri, Jingga, later I will contact Jingga," said Mrs. Diva.

Jingga smiled hearing Mrs. Diva's words.

'Is it really my destiny like this? Married to a cruel and fierce man. Hm, I think I will write a novel about my story, there must be a lot of readers,' Jingga thought.
