"You're married?"bima asked Aurora with a look of disbelief.
"Yes," Ahut Aurora smiled faintly.
"So soon did you forget about me and marry someone else? You didn't lie to me, did you?"bima asked smiling wryly. It was unexpected that Aurora had forgotten herself. And can't believe Aurora's married.
Aurora breathed a long sigh of doubt about her married self from the man who had been her lover.
"I'm really married. Do I need to show you my marriage certificate, and then you'll believe it?"tanya Aurora sighed.
"Sorry! We have to go," said Miss Ella, drawing Aurora's hand wanting to leave the place. Doesn't want his daughter to be with a man who incidentally is his daughter's ex-boyfriend.
"Wait!"bima said rushing to face Aurora, "This is my card! Please contact me if you have time to spare," Bima said as she handed Aurora a business card.
"Alright, mother accepted it," said Bu Ella, smiling faintly, with a forced smile. Taking the business card that Bima gave then again pulled Aurora's hand away from Bima.
Bima let out a long sigh staring at the sad Aurora who was walking further and further away. To this day, Bima still loves Aurora. Being engaged to a woman he doesn't love. Married to the girl of choice of both parents.
Meanwhile, not far from where Bima was, there was a middle-aged woman watching Bima earlier. With a furious face, the middle-aged woman approached Bima who was still still glued to look at Aurora who was getting away.
"Why are you still approaching that woman? Don't you remember, if you already had a fiancee?"ask the middle-aged woman to Bima.
Bima let out a long breath hearing that familiar voice. The voice of the woman who gave birth to him.
"Mom, even though I approached her, she also rejected me. He was too hurt by my words at the time. And fiancee? I told Mom I don't love her, Mom. I just love Aurora. If mother still forces me to marry the woman of mother's choice, I can't guarantee if I can make her happy, "that Bima has not been able to move on from Aurora. Even until now, Bima has not or the place does not want to believe if Aurora is married.
"Reject you? He's just pretending to reject you, to have you go after him. And your fiancee's problem, that love can grow over time. If you want to try, you will definitely love your fiancee. But if you continue to approach the woman, how can you love the woman of your choice? Remember, Bim! He is not equal to us. He came from the lower middle class. Only High School graduates and grades are always standard. Just beautiful, but if not smart also free. The young will be old. The beautiful will eventually wrinkle as well.Taoi if smart, as long as it is still willing to sharpen his brain, will be smarter," said Bima's mother.
It is true, as beautiful, as handsome as any human being, will certainly age and wrinkle as well. But Bima's mother forgot, or maybe didn't know. Nowadays, with a healthy lifestyle and with all kinds of care, a person can be beautiful/looking at an age that is no longer young. It can even look ten years younger if you apply a healthy lifestyle and take care of yourself with a variety of treatments. Especially by using complete and regular skincare.
"Mom, loving someone because of beauty or good looks is natural. But that doesn't mean love is because of physical appearance. Love is from the heart, without reason and cannot be forced. And also, not everyone who has mediocre or low academic scores is stupid, ma'am. Each person has his own intelligence which is shown in the abilities he mastered. There are people who are good at theory but cannot practice it. There are also those who cannot master the theory, but can practice directly. Academic values cannot be a benchmark for smart or stupid someone, Mom," Bima said at length.
"Whatever the reason, mother still disagrees if you marry the woman. He was just using you to pay the debts of his parents," said Bima's mother solidly with her stance.
"Aurora's not that kind of woman, ma'am. Even during our relationship, she never asked me anything, "that Bima was honest. During the relationship with Bima, Aurora did not ask anything from Bima.
"That's just an image for you to think he's nice. After successfully marrying you, she will definitely ask for a lot of the same things as you. First, he must ask you to pay off the debts of his parents," said Bima's mother.
"Why, anyway, do you always look bad at Aurora? What exactly was Aurora's fault with mother, so she hated her so much?"asked Bima who was upset with her mother.
"Because he's no good at all. Her advantage is just beautiful. Besides, she has nothing to be proud of, "soo mother Bima
"As for mom! To be sure, I can't forget Aurora. I just love Aurora. If someday there is a chance, I will definitely marry him," Bima said then stepped away from her mother.
"A sophisticated era like this still believes the same superstition," said Bima continued to step away leaving his mother who looks upset.
Meanwhile, Miss Ella kept pulling Aurora away from Bima.
"Ra, why are you still serving him? His parents obviously hate you. Especially now that you're married. It's not good if you're close to another man. Aren't you afraid that your husband's men will report to your husband about you meeting another man?"groused Bu Ella while walking, then threw the business card that Bima gave earlier to the trash they passed.
"Yes, I know, Mom,"sahut Aurora let out a long sigh.
Bima was once a special man in her heart. Aurora could not ignore let alone be rude to Bima.
"Don't tell me, you still love him?"bu Ella asked with one eye looking at Aurora.
"Alright, Mom! Don't talk about it anymore! I hungry. Let's find a place to eat first!"get Aurora to switch the conversation, not wanting to be lectured by her mother on the matter.
"Remember, Ra! Marriage is a sacred bond. Don't think of getting divorced!"advice from Miss Ella.
"Yes, Mom. I-i know. I have no intention of getting divorced from Rayyan, "so Aurora kept walking' arm in arm with Miss Ella while looking for a place to have lunch.
"How could I possibly divorce Rayyan? As long as Rayyan does not betray me, I will never be able to divorce Rayyan" Aurora muttered inwardly. Aurora still remembered the points in her letter of agreement with Rayyan.
"Good then. Your husband is a good man and loves you. I can see it from her face as well from the way she looks at you and notices you. Even Rayyan forbade me from waking you up, when she wanted to leave," Ms. Ella said.
"Hum, I know,"sahut Aurora.
Aurora finally invites Miss Ella and her two bodyguards to eat at a restaurant. Nala and Dodi choose to eat at the table next to Aurora. To keep his master close.
"Byurrs"
"What are you doing?"peekik Bu Ella's.
Suddenly someone doused Aurora's head, until Aurora was drenched. Nala and Dodi got up from their seats and rushed towards Aurora.
