Episode 2's. Make Me Fall in Love

Arumi threw the body on the mattress that had always seemed to call him. For a moment he buried his face on the soft mattress and covered both ears with a pillow when various words of teasing as if back targeting in both ears. Especially when the incident of facial sketches back dancing in his memory.

"Arumi.." said a man who was none other than Arumi's father-permana. Hearing the creaking of the open door rushed Arumi to shrink the tears that had been in freefall since. "What's up, Ndok...?" ask Permana. His hand gently rubbed the head of Arumi.

"Dad knows how you feel, Ndok. I'm sorry I was so late to realize. Forgive me.." Inner Permana. The middle-aged man was so regretful of his actions a few years ago.

"Dad.." said Arumi who immediately hugged him. Arumi's cry broke again in the deck of Permana.

"What's up, Ndok...?" ask Permana again. Not once, not even repeatedly. But there are no words that Arumi can say as an answer to the question.

Permana breathed heavily. "Ndok. Everyone must have flaws. And sure enough, what you're going through right now is part of life for tomorrow's beautiful story. I'm sure it is." said Permana finally wisely while continuing to wipe the top of Arumi's head.

"Dad doesn't understand how this feels...?" arumi said in her tears. Hearing the mere words of the princess, Permana could not speak anymore. Now he is dissolved in Arumi's feelings. On his deck Arumi tightly and rubbed the back of the fat girl.

"Ndok. Every human being is born with advantages as outlined by God" said Permana himself to end his silence.

"But Arumi does not know what are the advantages of Arumi...?!" said Arumi half-cry with a raucous voice.

"because Arumi is too busy with Arumi's shortcomings"

Deg.

Arumi remained silent. Permana's words just managed to hit her heart. Part of his heart completely justified every utterance of Permana. And some of the tub sneered because he knew what it was like to be in a situation where the weight scale was considered more relevant than the charity scales of kindness. Body height is more important than self-esteem.

Looks like Permana sighed again. This time both of his hands straightened Arumi's shoulders. Her wet eyes looked at Arumi deeply into the heart.

"Dad knows how you feel, Arumi. Wh why? Because I'm your father. And all of that happened because of Dad. But I promised I'd make it up to you. Father will make you happy." Inner Permana.

"After a long time I just get the affection of my father, then whatever I will do to make my father happy. Arumi promised, Dad. Arumi will be a strong girl.." Inner Arumi.

"Arumi believes in father...?" asked Permana by continuing to look at the face of his daughter who had been soaked in tears. Arumi nodded weakly.

"That's enough for dad. For sure I am sure, Arumi will be happy someday" said Permana later while kissing the head of Arumi gently.

"Now look at what you brought." said Permana while wiping Arumi's tears. His hand then thrust out a blue paper bag. Aruni looked at Permana's face and filled the paper bag alternately.

"Friends of father will visit. Father's son wear this, yes." said Permana while poking his daughter's chin is still silent.

Dusk has come. The sky was partly covered. The red color is so soothing. Arumi is preparing. He was looking at himself in front of a mirror after completing the Maghrib prayer.

Blue blouse with a small flower motif on the bottom he combined with dark colored pants. While his hair he just tied it.

Seven o'clock past ten minutes. A new luxury car can be seen parked in the yard. "Mana.." said the man while holding and hugging Permana.

"William.." said Permana sumringah returning the embrace of the man she called William. Then continued shaking the woman's hand next to William. He looks so familiar.

Being in that situation, Arumi suddenly rattled. He began to keep his gaze on his feet. While his hands were unceasingly correcting the location of his glasses.

"This is my son, Arumi." said Permana who managed to turn the attention of the two to Arumi.

"Arumi.ini Om Willian and Aunt Dania" said Permana who increasingly makes Arumi clumsy. Even so, Arumi still grabbed and kissed the backs of his hands with reverence while saying his name.

"Arumi.." so he said.

"Well..have it been polite, Pa?.." praise Dania.

"Yes, now it is rare for young people to kiss their hands like this. You are great Permana, can educate him" said William.

"Ah, it could be. If I'm great, then what are you guys? Super great anyway." said Permana while laughing. Even so with the two super-tajir Permana friends.

In the midst of that hospitality, for a moment the eyes of Permana seemed to be looking for something. His eyes glanced there. Conscious of Permana's behavior, William patted Permana on the shoulder.

"Our son is in the car. They will soon be joining us. Just understand. Let's not finish the night too" said William smiled proudly followed by admiration Permana.

"Well that's it." said Dania as a man got out of the car while continuing to have a conversation through his cell phone to stand near William. "This is Mirza, our only son." said Dania while rubbing the boy's arm.

Arumi who heard a name called, suddenly lifted her face.

"Sir Mirza." said Arumi. It is undeniable that Arumi was filled with shock so that his heartbeat could not be peaceful.

"You." said Mirza when she realized her name was called with an unusual tone.

"God, why is this refrigerator guy so stupid? Wanna put this face where it is. Hopefully, Mirza sir did not mention the car incident at that time. More about the sketch of that face. Em, hopefully.." Arumi's inner.

"This puffed girl turns out to be the son of papa's best friend and mama. Oh, my God, I just want to run away from this place. Ah, goddamn. Why are mom and dad so insistent on setting me up with a girl like this. There are no more stock girls in this world. Wanna put it where it's face if my relations see it. Ah, shit.." Inner Mirza.

"Mirza, this is Permana. Papa and mama's best friend since he was in High School" said Dania while smiling.

"Mirza.." said William while patting Mirza on the shoulder. And that almost made Mirza stammer from her daydream.

"Ma-night, Om" said Mirza to welcome the hand of Permana.

"It's Arumi. Son Om the only. Looks like you guys already know each other." said Permana while smiling when he met the eyes of William and Dania.

Deg.

Arumi's heart throbbed as Mirza's gaze turned to her.

"Y-yes, Om. Coincidentally Arumi was one of my students at the XYZ campus" Mirza said with her flat face. Only the tip of his lips gave a smile. Maybe as a sign of appreciation to Permana.

"Well, good if so." said William while following Permana steps into the house.

Deg.

Deg.

Deg.

"Ah, fuck...Why can't my eyes escape from her. That strange murmur was running all over my body. And this heart is also increasingly beating erratically. Especially when he looked at me from toe to head" Arumi's inner.

Although a little gagu, Arumi managed to gather his courage. Arumi raised her head again. Arumi stunned.

"Gosh, that's a tall human refrigerator. I just looked up to look him in the face. Whoa.." Inner Arumi.

"Dare to look at me with those four eyes. So stained with my looks. Duh, dear Andrea. Why are you compared to the last stock girl like this?" inner Mirza.

Eight o'clock is ten minutes. The conversation of the three friends continued. Making Arumi and Mirza who had been struggling with her phone began to feel saturated.

"Arumi, take Mirza to the park. There you can talk a lot. There may be a lot of things that want to be discussed" said Permana a little laugh that immediately lived Arumi and Mirza who in fact already feel saturated in the middle of the chatter of their parents.

The two were seen walking side by side through the courtyard of the house where the Williams family's luxury car was parked. Mirza approached the car for a moment. He took something that he finally hid under his clothes.

Before long, they looked back both were circling a pool and then sitting on a chair with a round table in white in the middle.

"Have you and your father planned this match?" ask Mirza flat.

"Stupid...?"

"Yes. Per-jo-do-han's chat..."

"Ar-Arumi doesn't know, sir. Su-really.." said Arumi awkwardly.

"I'm sure you don't mind this matchmaking. Did you make this?" mirza said as she thrust out a clear sheet of paper containing a sketch of her face.

Blush....

Arumi's face was red as a boiled crab.

Deg.

Deg.

Deg.

Arumi remained silent. As much as possible he tried to calm down in the midst of the situation Mirza created. Arumi reconciled her heartbeat that was jumping erratically.

"You made it? And did you write behind it, too?" mirza said again. Spontaneous Arumi flipped the paper and looked at a row of letters that were quite long.

Arumi kept her face. He bit his lips holding a strange, turbulent sigh in his chest. Because he knew very well it was his handwriting.

"I don't mind that expression of your feelings..."

"Egh..."

"Em, I mean don't mind because it's everyone's right. I'm asking you not to misunderstand. I didn't come here to approve this match. I just want to make my mom and dad happy" Mirza said expressionlessly.

"Yes, of course you won't accept this match. Because I'm not the girl you dreamed of, am I. Arumi-Arumi..realize.." Arumi's inner.

"Behold, I am in a relationship with a girl. And I love her so much. But I don't know why mom and dad didn't approve of our relationship"

Deg.

"Ow, it turns out this refrigerator man has a girlfriend too. I don't think any girl would want to. Or maybe the girl is just like her. Equally a refrigerator man." Inner Arumi.

"You understand what I mean." said Mirza flatly.

Arumi remained silent. He was interpreting every word that the man who had survived was sitting next to him. The man who, when viewed from the tail of his eyes, was engrossed in staring at the glow of light in the pool water that looked sparkling. And that sparkle also occasionally make up on the handsome face of the man he secretly loved.

"Do you understand what I mean..?!" mirza said once again a little higher.

"Arumi understands. You do not accept this match, because you already have love for another girl. So it's an impossibility if you love me. That's what you mean...?" arumi said to redefine Mirza's intentions based on his understanding.

"Good.." said Mirza standing up.

"But I want to give you a chance. Counting gives a breath of fresh air to my mom and dad. You read the second sheet of the sketch on the back." Mirza said again.

Matchmaking agreement :

Make me fall in love with you

Your chance of six months for

creating point (1)

Can't ban me if I'm together

the girl I love

No more demands for compensation

while creating point (1)

Can't be baper

"What'sthis? Some kind of agreement? Or what?Basic human refrigerator, you want to make a madness apparently" inner Arumi.

"What does that mean...?" arumi asked as she took a long step because Mirza had just left her.

"I appreciate my mom and dad's wishes. I don't want to disappoint them both. Then I give you a chance as it is written. If you succeed then I will be your love slave. But if you don't then you have to get out of the way of my love with the girl I love. How's it?" mirza said as she stood up and looked at Arumi.

Glekk...

Arumi again had to swallow his saliva saliva with weight. Arumi. He did not know what to say in his current situation.

"Unable to accept my challenge? yeah, alright. I will tell both our parents that you are the one who rejected this match" Mirza said as she passed.

Arumi was stunned again. There was a shock that shook the tip of his heart. His eyes stared at Mirza's back, which was almost lost behind the wall of the room where the three friends were talking.

"If Mr. Mirza says that I refuse, how does the father feel in front of his two best friends. Hadeeuh..I have to what? I do love him but it's impossible to have him considering he already loves another girl.." Arumi's inner.

"Mom, papa, and om.sorry. After talking it looks like Arumi..."

"Wait.." said Arumi stopped the word that was preparing to slide from Mirza's lips.

"Follow me.." said Arumi while pulling the arm of Mirza who just treated like that.

Smile the three people who really intend to match Arumi and Mirza. The three stared at each other when they saw the interesting attraction that was happening.

"OKs. I concur... A pen?" said Arumi who immediately signed a white sheet containing four points that he had read before shortly after he received a pen from Mirza. And Mirza did the same thing, signing the sheet.

"Sorry Arumi, obviously I can't accept you. But I will make it your situation that retreats regularly over this matchmaking, not me. Because I can assure you for six months that you won't get my attention, let alone my love" Mirza said. His face was a victory.
