Abhimanyu lowered my body weight to the floor. Her wet lips and cheeks look red when the gelora we have is linked without shame. Now I'm overpowered by something I somehow have to finish. My body seemed to be craving her presence again. I imagined a future in which I would become the one who was lost in front of Abhimanyu.
‘There are limits that I still have to keep for the sake of our sanity both’
Abhimanyu cleared his throat. "So, Bella." Abhimanyu confirmed his call by repeating his words once more.
"Bella's." I heard noise and fear.
"Yes, that's better than you calling me a Aunt for life!"
"Kalo Ma'am Bella?" seloroh Abhimanyu's. Having it and seeing it smile jokingly, even on the call of Ma'am I have no problem. Justjust..
My arms are holding his arms. "Later people thought I was your older sister, Abhimanyu. And you can't kiss or tease your sister. You need to know that and I don't want to think big brother is bad!"
Abhimanyu's laughter made me fall deeper into him. Abhimanyu
put his head on my shoulder.
"So, what's this thing called we're engaged to Bella? I guess yesterday just came to ask for Aunt Marni's blessing." she said softly, sounding helpless. "While this ring is as a gift, do you mind just wearing a platinum ring?"
I then raised my hand, this black ring was striking on my white skin. Pink diamonds look cute and funny. I love it, it's worth more than all the rings I've got.
"It's cool, and are you going to keep wearing it too?" Abhimanyu broke away after his aunt Marni threw him out with a flick of her hand in the living room. He grimaced after sitting on the sofa.
"Mas Abi is late" said aunt Marni softly. The slight warning made him grimace wider.
Abhimanyu patted the sofa next to him. "Atom aunty."
"Abri is still hungry?" asked aunt Marni after sitting down, I saw the two getting more familiar when they were both grimacing with eyes that hinted at a lot of things.
"Why are you guys like that?" many wonder. My intuition told me that aunt Marni and Abhimanyu were talking about me through telepathy.
Aunt Marni looked at me. "Mrs beautiful." He smiled, "Mas Abi used to say that when he saw the lady's photo."
I chuckle. "I'm beautiful from birth, but it's papa who said. So thank you for the compliment Abi. You have a beautiful wife. You likey?"
Abhimanyu took my hand, he looked at my face. His sometimes sparkling eyes like jewels in the seaweed and charming smile taught me that older people can never control themselves. This nervousness was present when the embodiment of Abhimanyu which I considered fantasy came true.
"Tante knows the answer."
"Aunty again." I protested, "it's a romantic time gini call her Aunt again." I took his hand off. Pouty. "Honey what babe, or Bella was like. It's Aunt again."
The living room was filled with the laughter of Aunt Marni. "Mas Abi, mas Abi. The clock shows at nine o'clock at night, which means guests have to go home. I've mas Abi tomorrow again meet Nyonyah, later khilaf near and near. Mas Abi also had to rest."
"But I'm still missing, bi." Abhimanyu whine, sounds serious, so does his body gesture.
I love those moments when he's spoiled like this. But rest assured my heart is not calm. Abhimanyu and I are enjoying a new phase, whether this is really fiancee, or just deepening our status to a level that makes it easier for us to be together. In my real life there are still young widows, waiting for Abhimanyu really ready for a relationship like a fellow adult and prospective husband and wife is an obligation.
Ordering two of the same drinks and one dessert. Cappucino.
I grimaced, being outside the house and the space capacity eroded, privacy must be maintained. We sat facing each other like ordinary friends.
Abhimanyu licked the coffee foam from his upper lip.
"Your first kiss?" my many.
Abhimanyu cut the cappucino cake with a fork and devoured it. He chewed while looking at me with a thoughtful look.
"I love honesty for everything!"
"Not the first but the deepest" he said.
"Oh.... Pantes, smart reply." I cried. Given how we kissed, Abhimanyu was quite amazing. Making my whole body expect more than just kissing.
Abhimanyu fed the rest of the cappucino cake from a small dish to my mouth with a fork. With that thing, he shook my forehead slowly.
My cheeks are bulging, my eyes are glaring. Abhimanyu rolled his eyes and put away my leg which tickled his calf.
"Just you and me now, Bella." Abhimanyu sighed.
I recognized his tone, he didn't want any past discussion.
"Yes, sorry. And then after this ring is pinned on our finger. When are you gonna take me to your parents' house?"
The entire surface of Abhimanyu's face stiffened. He leaned his body on the back of the chair. For a moment he turned the ring on his finger. Ordinary people might think it was just an accessory, but for me or Abhimanyu it was a binder.
"I'm afraid they don't approve of me marrying young."
"I understand." My lips lifted, "We can work out our plan again? Maybe two more years before I turn three?"
Abhimanyu touched my cheek, then pinched it. Her serious spikes came back when I kicked her shins.
"We haven't tried asking papa and mama, Ellis."
"So you want to ask me to nemenin you?" I figured.
"Who knows if you win I'll be braver, Eli!" Abhimanyu took a breath. "Mom and dad still don't know I'm paying off their debt."
I folded both hands, Abhimanyu's eyes now look like any other youngster who has to deal with parents for something serious. There is fear and anxiety.
"When you want?"
"Quickly!"
