"Alhamdulillah.....I can't complained. God has been kind to me.", Imran answered.
We remained quiet.....until Captain Ian called," Imran and his beautiful guest, please.....this way....." and he walked us thru the dining area. Dinner is served."
"What a beautiful setting, Captain.", aku memuji. Imran memimpin aku ke meja makan. Selesai aku melabuhkan punggungku di atas kerusi, Captain Ian menjumput makan, "Please enjoyed our dinner."
Captain Ian tersenyum dan berlalu pergi leaving us some privacy. Later he and Budi joined us for desserts and coffee.
"We will dock in about an hour time.", said Captain Ian as he sipped his coffee.
"Fantastic. We need to pack up soon as we arrived to the villa. We're leaving for Malaysia on Tuesday.", Imran explained to Captain Ian. Aku hanya tersenyum dan menganggukkan kepala.
" I hope both of you had a great time in Bali. Whenever you are in town do give me a ring and we can plan for a scuba diving trip." replied the Captain as he excuse himself. We shook hands and continued with our dessert while the Captain left for an unfinished business.
We continued our conversation into the living area while await the yacht to dock.
"Segan pulak I rasa. Are you sure?", I asked him back sambil menunduk malu.
"Yes....I am sure. I want to introduce to her the woman I am marrying. I want to ask for her blessings...". He explained and smiled sheepishly.
"I really like that very much.......", I replied without hesitation and I saw a huge beam on the face.
"We'll drive back to Padang Padang tomorrow morning and head straight to Ubud. Aku mengangguk setuju.
That night we arrived at the villa around 10:30 p.m. I was very tired and I immediately excused myself to my room. I know Imran would like to sit and talk more but I was just too tired. "Imran, I masuk tidur ya. I had a wonderful time with you today. Thank you so much. You spoil me to bits....", I looked at him as I held his hands.
"Sure, you go ahead. I know you're tired. I'll see you in the morning for breakfast say about 7:30 a.m?", he replied. He walked closer to me and placed both of his hands on the sides of my face. He kissed softly on both cheeks and one on my lips. I closed my eyes as I kissed him back. I fell into his arms and he held me tight. "Come, I'll walk you to your room.".
Soon as we reached my room, he opened the bedroom door....." Assalamualaikum...", he said. I lifted his hand and planted a soft kiss. I looked up and said, " Waalaikum salam....".
Malam tu aku menalipon Khai. I wanna share the good news....
Me : Hello Khai....kau dah tidur ke?
Khai : Eeeerrrrrrr......hello? siapa ni? Kalau aku dah tidor aku tak angkat call kau ni....
Me : Hey....kenapa ni....kau tidur yeee.....bangun, bangun ni aku, Q la.........Bangun la......".

Me : I don't know. I kena tanya ke....?
Khai : 😫
