MILLY

MILLY
chapter 33. I'm not ...


Vallen is joking around in his room. Yesterday when he went to Dean's house. Aunt Santy, Dean's mother told me about Dean asking permission to marry Milly.


Vallen was actually not so surprised, because he had predicted it. But still Vallen became angry because of it.


"If Aunt agrees, I'm what dong is, Tan. Not that Aunt has promised, to persuade Dean. Now it's like this."


"You calm down, Dean just trying to get Milly's love, they haven't had any relationship. Aunt isn't sure, Dean's gonna get Milly. If that happens, Dean has promised to accept you as his wife."


"Loh .. Kok can do that anyway, Tan," said Vallen astonished.


"The Dean's color has long been in love with Milly. Since they went to school. But Milly never accepted Dean. Aunty only gives Dean one chance, if he fails, then he has to follow aunt's will."


Vallen was a little surprised to hear Santy's aunt's explanation. All this time he thought Dean had a past relationship with Milly. See how Dean treated Milly that night.


"But Auntie, how about Milly? What else to see Dean mas now is handsome and well established," said Vallen worried.


Mama Dean quietly got such a question from Vallen. Anything could have happened. Then what will he say to Vallen and his family.


Especially Sarah, the best friend, surely Sarah will be angry and hostile. It could also be Sarah will influence other Arisan friends to stay away from him.


If that happens, he won't have any more friends.


"Where, Tan? I don't want to lose Dean. You know, I really like Dean."


"Yes, auntie tau. Looks like we're gonna have to figure out a way now, just so Milly doesn't want to be with Dean."


"Yes too, Tan. But how is it going?"


Mama Dean and Vallen seemed to be thinking. Suddenly an idea came to Vallen's mind.


"What if I told Milly that I was Dean's candidate. Maybe he'll back off on his own."


"May too, but you must be clever. Don't let Dean know and get mad at you."


"Tante take it easy, I'll think about it."


"Alright, aunt always supports you, let's hope our idea works."


****


Returning from Dean's house, Vallen told his mother everything.


Vallen's mother told Vallen to speak to Milly.


"Make him believe that if you're Dean's candidate, then press him to play with his emotions, make him sympathize with you, then he'll stay away from Dean."


That's what Mama Vallen taught her at the time.


***


Not wanting to wait long, Vallen's morning headed straight for Milly's house. He will carry out his mission.


With the driver in between, Vallen went to Milly's house by car.


Once there, Vallen did not come down, because there was Dean.


Vallen called his mother to ask for instructions on what to do next.


"Now keep an eye on them, follow where they go, later if you have the chance, you should talk to the woman as soon as possible. Don't let Dean express his feelings first."


Vallen obeyed what his mother said.


Not long Dean's car, leaving Milly's boarding. Vallen followed them. Eventually, they stopped at an office building.


Because he felt there was no chance to talk to Milly. Vallen's mother, over the phone, told Vallen to go home, and then come back when the working hours were over.


***


Vallen will pretend to accidentally see Milly, as she happens to pass in front of Milly's office. It'll offer a ride, for Milly to come home. He will pretend to be close because of the meeting that night.


But like no luck, again Vallen first the same Dean. Can not imagine anymore, how upset Vallen. But her mother told her to follow them.


With a heart full of anger, Vallen followed them. That's where Milly and Dean stopped.


Envy suddenly appeared in Vallen's heart. All this time, he always wanted to invite Dean to eat in a luxurious and romantic place. But Dean always refused.


But look, now he's coming here with Milly.


Vallen keeps following them inside, in a disguise. He didn't want to be caught spying on them.


Arriving inside, Vallen's envy tripled. Turns out Dean had reserved a special place, to dine alone with Milly.


Ala-ala dinners when people are dating, which Vallen often watches on TV.


Although curious, Vallen does not want to die silly, because hangers hear what they will talk about.


Vallen decided to go home. He vented his anger at anything he met in the room.


***


"Loh .. loh ... what the hell is this. Vallen why are you? Stop being silly, you're gonna ruin everything."


Mama Vallen went into Vallen's room, hearing noise and broken things.


"Ma ... Mamma. I'm sorry, Ma, Vallen accidentally. Vallen is upset with Milly and Mas Dean."


"But not this way either. You'll ruin everything. Now tell mom what happened."


Vallen told his mother everything.


"Maybe now that Dean has revealed his heart to Milly, maybe Milly has accepted it, too" said Vallen upset.


"Who are you too, why should you leave. So now we can only guess."


"Kok, Mama beat me up anyway, where strong me, Ma, watched them both. Now how am I supposed to? I don't want Dean to marry Milly.


"Mmmmmmh"


Mama Vallen took a deep breath. He had to figure out a way for Dean not to get married to Milly.


"Where, Ma. Don't be quiet."


"Yes, this is Mama's thinking too."


"Akhhaa ...."


Mama Vallen yells at getting an idea.


"What's wrong? Why did Mama yell," said Vallen in shock because of her mother's screams.


"Mama had an idea to keep them apart. Mama's idea won't fail."


"What idea?"


Mama Vallen also told me her idea. Vallen nodded his head in agreement with his mother.


***


Milly was still not too sure, with what she heard. So he just kept quiet, not knowing what to answer.


"Where, Mil, I love you" Dean said.


"Mmmmm... Why?" Because Milly confused answer origin.


"Kok why the hell, Mil?"


"How should I go?" answer Milly again.


"Say what cake, or say that you love me, too."


Dean was anxious about Milly's response. Though his heart is currently very stubborn waiting for Milly's answer. But Milly did.


"Well, Dean."


Dean, who had been sitting, stood up, walked closer to Milly. Dean didn't take off Milly's hand. This time Dean clasped one more hand.


Milly stood up to follow Dean. Their positions face each other. Suddenly Dean crouched down in front of Milly. Milly took a step back in shock.


Dean took something from inside his pocket. Then he showed the little box to Milly.


Dean stared fixedly at Milly's eyes, with a sincere and loving look. Milly was suddenly misbehaved. Honestly, this is the first time Milly has been treated like this. It's so beautiful in Milly's eyes. His heart and cheeks warmed up together.


Dean opened the little box. It looks like a diamond ring with a simple model but looks very elegant.


Dean deliberately chose it, because it was very appropriate to Milly's personality.


"Milly, I love you, I want you to be the perfector of my life, I don't want to date. I want to get married right away. Do you want to marry me?"


Milly felt her face meet. There was a sense of pleasure at once in his heart. But how else. It was as if he had never been on his side.


Her status is now a wife. If only, yes, were not bound in the relationship, maybe he would have considered Dean's request. Moreover, lately he felt very comfortable close to Dean.


Dean held Milly's hand. Feeling Milly's hand now turning so cold.


"How Mil, if you want, you can take this ring, I haven't forced you to get married anytime soon, but I need your reassurance. I don't want to lose you again like I used to."


"I ... Dean, I'm ... ." Milly's tongue seemed stiff to speak. He couldn't possibly accept Dean, even though his heart wanted to. But if he refuses, he doesn't know what to say.


Not afraid to ask for excuses. Actually what Milly fears the most is that Dean will stay away if Milly rejects him. Milly didn't want that to happen. Feels selfish, but that's what Milly feels right now.


"Dean .. I don't ...."


Drrrrr .. drrrrrr ..


Dean's cell phone voice stopped Milly from speaking. Dean doesn't care about his phone. He wanted to quickly hear Milly's answer.


"Where, Mil?"


"Sorry Dean, I don't ...."


Dean's phone rang again, but Dean was in no mood to see who had called. Three times a call. The call still did not stop.


"Let's just say, who knows what's important" Milly said.


Dean reached into the cell phone in his pants pocket.
