MARRY ME

Kinasih was just about to take Liliana to lunch when the bell at Liliana's apartment door rang. Tuti quickly opened the door and Liliana's heart seemed to stop when she saw who was coming.

"Dave, What do you want?" ask Kinasih while frowning.

"I want to take Liliana to lunch and talk."

Kinasih smiled, she was sure her husband must have met David.

"Well then, mom didn't take Lili to lunch together. You just take Lili out. Just so you know he hasn't been eating right."

Kinasih turned to Liliana and stroked the girl's shoulder, " Mama came home first, yes. We'll have dinner tomorrow night. Now David seems to have an important thing to discuss, " he said.

He kissed Liliana's cheeks and stepped out after patting David's shoulder at a glance.

"You're ready, right? You were going with my mom, weren't you?"David asked Liliana. The girl just nodded slowly, she was already ready to leave earlier.

"Then, we leave now. I'm already hungry and I've also booked a place for our lunch, " David said.

Liliana did not answer, but she immediately grabbed her bag and stepped behind David. Seeing Liliana walking timidly behind her swiftly he pulled and took Liliana's hand so that they walked side by side.

"I would like to have your birth examined by another gynecologist."

David's voice was finally heard breaking the silence between the two when they were already in the car.

"Ms. Nadine us-"

"I am the father of the child, so I have the right to decide where I will examine my child and future wife," David replied firmly cutting Liliana's speech. David's words touched Liliana's heart. He did not expect that the man would recognize the child in his womb.

"You ...."

"Li, My Father already knows about what happened between us. But, I ask, no one knows first. There are so many things in my family that I don't know. My dad kept a lot of secrets from me and my mom. Including my marriage to Nadine, my wife.

"I've never hidden anything from papa before. So, in the end, I decided to confess everything I did to you. Papa asked us to keep this a secret first. You can, right? The most important thing now is that we are getting married. I'll take responsibility, you don't worry," David said again.

Liliana just silently lowered her head while crying silently. This is what he has been waiting for a month ago, confession.

"Thank you, sir. I don't want to ask for anything from this marriage, Mr. David. My son received recognition from his biological father only I was very happy. Since the incident was only a confession I was waiting for. I'm probably just a normal girl, Sir. But, I have self-esteem. If indeed I do not report your actions to the police station because I have a debt of gratitude to you and Ms. Nadine," said Liliana.

David let out a deep breath, he was moved to hear Liliana's words. She thought Liliana was the same as any other woman. But he was wrong.

"Li, I'm sorry that I've nailed you and called you a mature woman," David said. Liliana didn't answer, she just smiled.

They ate at a European-style restaurant that was David's favorite restaurant. The man had already booked a table and a menu for both of them. When they arrived, the food was ready.

However, something was different, that afternoon the restaurant was deserted without visitors. Although I have never eaten there before, Liliana knows that this restaurant is always crowded at lunchtime.

Liliana's astonishment had not disappeared, suddenly the music was pouring from the stage. If an ordinary evening there is live music that accompanies diners to eating. But, why this afternoon there is live music as well.

Then a waiter came to their table carrying a plate of chocolate cake. Not her cake that concerns Liliana, but a diamond ring on top of the cake. He looked at David in disbelief.

"What is this, Sir?"

"Maybe from now on you should get used to calling me, honey, or Dave. Liliana, do you want to marry and be my wife? I promise I will always take care of you, " said David as he handed a plate of chocolate cake.

"If you want to accept, you can immediately wear the ring. But, if you refuse, you can return the ring to me," said David again.

Liliana pulled a small plate containing cake and took the ring on top of the cake. Then she stood up and placed the ring in front of David. The man felt surprised not playing.

Just now, when he prepared everything he thought that Liliana would accept his proposal. In her mind, Liliana would wear the ring with tears in her eyes. But...

"You rejected my proposal, Li?" asked David.
