CHAPTER 2

"Oh, Auntie! What the hell, I'm just kidding, aren't I, Uncle," Amel burst out looking at the man who was now focused on driving the car.

"You're joking, but I'm serious, you can, Mom, propose Amel to me," Raffa said, making Amel round her eyes.

"What the hell, Uncle! Don't be ignorant," Amel growled staring annoyed at Raffa whose eyes were still focused on the road.

"I'm not ignorant, honey. Mom, please quickly propose to Amel," Raffa exclaimed, making Amel exhale and then choose to listen to the song on her cellphone and Wulan, Sekar chuckled at the behavior of these two humans.

Now they had arrived at the school, the atmosphere was very crowded. Amel immediately said goodbye to Mom and Wulan to gather with her peers.

"Mom, I say goodbye to the office first," said Raffa thrusting his hand and welcomed by Wulan, the man quickly kissed the back of the hand of the mother and Sekar.

"Don't come home too late, I'm going to propose to Amel for you," said Wulan, making Sekar turn to look at her neighbor.

"Haa! Mom seriously wants to propose to Amel for me." Raffa was surprised to hear his mother's words, he thought the woman was just trying to tease Amel.

"Yes, we are serious. We've talked about this before," said Sekar, who now joined in.

"I'll take my leave first, Mom, Auntie, because I'll be late soon. Now I have a meeting," Raffa said, looking at his watch and quickly getting into the four-wheeled vehicle.

"What's Raffa's answer, Wulan," said Sekar as she watched Raffa's car drive away.

"Surely he wants to, he once said I love your short legs," said Wulan, making Sekar turn her head to look at the woman in disbelief.

"You're right, Wulan. My princess is called short legs," Sekar's laughter finally came out at her neighbor's words.

"Twice as serious, in fact, if he's delirious like that, then it can't be wrong," said Wulan, to which Sekar nodded in reply because Raffa used to be just like Amel's late father.

"Yes, then I believe you, so when are you proposing to Amel?" asked Sekar and invited Wulan to sit on a chair.

"Tonight, Sekar. I've also prepared everything, just accept it," replied Wulan excitedly, she had liked Amel for a long time because of the girl's good attitude.

The smiles continued to be engraved when the event was over. Now they had gone home and were even in a taxi. Although there were traces of tears on the cheeks of the two girls who had just graduated but did not fade their beauty.

"Mom, I want to go to college with Shilla," Amel said, making the woman who gave birth to her turn her head.

"Eummm ... let's talk about it later, dear. I'm still tired, my legs are really sore from standing for so long," Sekar replied and closed her eyes, indeed the woman was so exhausted that even Wulan had fallen asleep earlier.

"Let's rest, I'll wake you up when we get there," Amel said, which Sekar didn't answer because she was already asleep.

"I'm bored, let's take some pictures!" said Shilla, to which the girl nodded in reply.

"Shilla, you know," Amel said when she finished taking pictures, leaning her body to make Shilla look over.

"I don't know, you haven't told me yet," Shilla replied, making Amel snort, looking annoyed at her best friend who only flashed a smile showing off her teeth.

"I haven't finished talking yet, so don't interrupt me!" Amel scolded and hit her friend's arm.

"Hehehe ... take it easy, Amel. You're just hitting me," grumbled Shilla who rubbed her hand which was quite sore from Amel's punch.

"Your mom said she wanted to marry me off to Uncle widower, and Uncle Widower even supported your mom's proposal," Amel said, making Shilla round her eyes at her friend.

"I'm dead if he finds out what I suggested. Besides, why did Raffa's brother even participate in everything," Shilla's mind exclaimed, she sighed softly then looked at Amel and pinched her friend's arm.

"It's impossible ah, when my mother and brother want to propose to you. They're probably just joking around and want to tease you about your graduation," Shilla said in a nervous tone, making Amel raise her eyebrows.
