"I also feel the same way. I feel like you are my life's choice, the one I've been waiting for, the one I've been looking for," Ken said with a face that was already very close to Lidya.
By this time, there were many people passing by and some of them cleared their throat when they saw the position of Ken and Lidya's faces that were very close, so Ken and Lidya immediately pulled away from each other and both laughed at themselves who almost kissed and did not realize that they were in the presence of many people.
Ken took Lidya's hand, and the two of them walked together to the car park.
"Let's go home. I'm tired," Lidya said as she fastened her seatbelt beside Ken who had just started the car engine.
"Okay."
"Let's go to your boarding house first. Where is your boarding house, anyway?"
Ken was silent. He was at a loss for an answer because he was no longer at the boarding house and had moved in behind Lidya's house. But of course he couldn't tell Lidya, so he said, "Why go to my boarding house?"
"Of course to drop you off. After that, I'll go back to my house."
"No. As a man, I'm the one who has to take the woman to her house, until you're safely inside the door of your house so you can't drive me, I'll drive you to your house."
"But if your boarding place is far from my house, how?"
"I can take an online motorcycle taxi. Besides, I won't feel safe if you haven't arrived at your house because my obligation is to take you to your house. So, when it comes to your safety, there's nothing to discuss, you have to obey me. Understand?" said Ken.
Lidya looked at Ken. She felt like she couldn't argue with Ken's words because he was so firm. But behind that, Lidya felt comfortable because there was a meaning of protection given by Ken there, so Lidya looked at Ken with pride, she felt she was protected by her man.
Because of that, Lidya immediately rested her head on Ken's arm. "I'm not intruding, am I?"
"Of course not. I even like you like this. Moreover, your car is an automatic car, so you won't bother me." After saying that, Ken hugged Lidya with his left hand and buried Lidya's head in his shoulder.
Lidya smiled at Ken's words. She closed her eyes. "I'm tired but I'm happy. I'm going to sleep first, okay?"
"Okay."
Ken really felt like a complete man when he was with Lidya because Ken could be the perfect protector for Lidya, for a woman who accepted Ken for who he was, even though Ken came and still comes across as a man from the lower class, a cleaning service who is underestimated by many people.
This acceptance and love given by Lydia makes Ken feel like a complete man for Lidya.
Ken promised in his heart that he would always take care of Lidya and would always give all his heart to Lidya and would survive all the temptations that came to him later.
Ken felt like revealing his identity to Lidya right away, but he chose to wait. Ken wants to see the next obstacles, whether Lidya will continue to be with Ken when the obstacles come again and try to make Lidya choose.
Because after Ken remembered the cruel treatment of his two previous women who left him when he already loved those two women very much, Ken decided to still buy more time for him to reveal his identity in front of Lidya because he still wanted to test Lidya's love for him.
A few moments later, Lidya's car arrived in front of Lidya's house. Ken immediately whispered in Lidya's ear to tell her that he had arrived at her house.
Lydia, who had fallen asleep, opened her eyes and rubbed them together. She looked around and realized that she had really arrived at her house. "How did it go so fast?"
"I was driving really slowly earlier. But, you were sleeping, that's why you felt like you got there so quickly."
"I still want to sleep in your arms. What do you say?"
"Later." Ken smiled at Lidya's spoiled behavior.
"This weekend, let's go to Bandung, shall we? So that the road is long, so that I can sleep in your arms for a long time, like before."
"Okay. I'm ready." After that, Ken got out of the car, circled the car and opened the car door for Lidya.
"Did you order an online motorcycle taxi?" Lidya asked as soon as she got out of the car.
"Yes, but I put the point at the end of the road. I don't know the point here. So, I have to wait there." Ken lied. He actually never ordered an online motorcycle taxi.
"Then, I'll wait there with you."
"Don't. You go inside. I'll feel safe when you're inside the house. In fact, I'll wait until you're inside the house first, then I'll head that way."
"Alright." Lidya knew she could not argue in this matter, hence, she immediately smiled.
Lidya turned around and threw the keys to the security guard who had been standing at the gate since earlier. She asked the security guard to put her car in, after which she walked into the house.
When she was near the main door of her house, Lydia turned her body back and she immediately smiled to see Ken still standing where he was.
Lydia realized that Ken meant what he said earlier that he wanted to make sure Lydia went inside the house first and then he would leave the house.
And Lydia was very happy to get such attention and protection, because she had never gotten it from her boyfriend before. Lidya felt special in Ken's eyes. Because of that, Lidya smiled again when she was in front of the main door of her house.
Lydia waved her hand to Ken. Ken also waved back at Lidya.
But Lidya did not immediately open the door of her house so the two of them were still staring at each other, still waving until finally the two of them could no longer see each other, because the gate that was previously open so Ken could see Lidya, was now closed by the security guard.
The security guard, who had put Lidya's car into the house, felt a little jealous of Ken because Ken could win the heart of his master's daughter. Therefore, seeing Ken and Lidya still waving at each other, he immediately closed the gate so that Ken and Lidya could no longer see each other.
"Huh, why does Miss Lidya like him anyway? Her motorcycle is just a piece of crap. My bike is still much more expensive than his. Miss Lidya would rather be with me, huh!" thought the security guard as he calmly closed the gate.
Ken immediately walked away from Lidya's house but of course he didn't walk to the end of the road but walked to his house which was behind Lidya's house. But then he found a surprise there.
