From Duren Down To The Heart
Chapter 24. The Truth Revealed

During the journey, my mind was never empty. This makes my brain work harder.

And without feeling Keanu has turned off the motor engine which means we have arrived at the destination, the Keisya school..

From the parking lot Keisya was chatting with a woman whose position was turned back to us, but I seemed to know who that person was. Yep! Nadias.

Keisya immediately ran up to me when he saw me. And it seems Nadia was surprised why Keisya left her who was talking about something. So Nadia immediately turned around and set her eyes on us with an expression that suddenly changed, from smiling to flat instantly.

Keisya immediately hugged me and shouted. "Mamaa..! I miss Mama."

I smiled and returned Keisya's embrace. "Mama's also kangen with Keisya."

Nadia left with a pouting face. She must have really disliked the scene she had seen earlier.

I looked at Keanu and coded with my eyes, pointing towards Nadia.

"let's just say, you don't have to feel guilty" Keanu said with a smile. He is very sensitive to what is happening around him, including what is in my heart.

"yes, we go home!" take me to Keisya. "But then Mama anterinnya until the front of Keisya house only yes.."

"yeah.why is that Mama? I want to eat and take another nap with Mama like that time..!" Keisya.

Keanu looked at me. "why?"

"it's okay"

"you're not ready to meet my parents?"

I'm down.

"you're calm, there's me."

Finally the three of us got on Keanu's bike, and as usual Keisya sat in front, and I was behind Keanu. But this time I didn't hug her, just held her on her waist.

Although Keisya is still a child, but it would be ashamed to be caught! Oops..!

****

We got off the bike after arriving at Keanu's spacious yard.

My heart is beating erratically. I'm really nervous. And I think I'm going to go home now!

But I kept a casual mask on my face.

Keisya pulled my hand to enter his house.

Then he ran inside and shouted. "Maha.. Where's oma? It's there's my Mama coming..!"

I stared confusedly at Keanu who was also staring at me and he raised his shoulders as well as his eyebrows.

Well, I don't know what to act like when I meet Keanu's parents later.

And not long after, there was the sound of Keisya constantly chattering at someone while walking closer to the living room I was in.

His voice was getting clearer which meant that their distance was getting closer.

"yes, Oma also can't wait to see your Mama" said a woman who has not seen her face. I guess, it's Keisya's Oma.

And I was very shocked when I saw the person who was walking and chatting with Keisya arriving in the living room.

I continued to stare at her with wide eyes without blinking once.

Aunt Riana? Why is he here?

"Claras..! Is this really you?"

I was still silent in the arms of Aunt Riana because I was still very shocked and did not understand what was going on.

"Well, you know Clara?" keanu asked which made me even more confused.

The mama? So then? What's.. Aunt Riana is Keanu's mom??

"of course dong darling.This is Clara's son Temen Mama who wants to be betrothed to you!"

Me and Keanu instantly stared at each other with shocked, confused, and also incredulous gazes.

"mama mean?"

Aunt Riana hasn't had a chance to answer Keanu's questions, but suddenly something surprised me more.

"Mama? Papa's? What are you doing here?" I asked, when I saw Mama and Papa I went into the living room behind Aunt Riana. I don't know which room they came from.

"Claras.. Keane.. Sorry if this surprises you." Aunt Riana approached me and also Keanu who was standing next to her. "so here's the story.." Aunt Riana invited us all to sit down.

"Keanu, you want not about 1 month ago Mama want to show a photo of the woman who will be paired with you in Keisya's room?"

Keanu nodded, then turned my head.

"at that time you did not want to see and immediately went out, after which Keisya approached Mama and asked, whose photo is it? Keep Mama answered, it's Mama's candidate Keisya."

Aunt Riana sighed. "Then, about 3 weeks ago when Keisya joined you selling on Sunday, Keisya went home to tell me that he met his mother who was in the photo."

We're all very serious about hearing Aunt Riana's story.

"Mama was very curious about what Keisya said, Mama had doubts, Keisya really met this Clara or not? Well. when you go for a walk to the amusement park with Keisya, you have three photos, Keisya pointed to Mama, she said it was Mama Clara in the photo that Mama loved Keisya. Mama wasn't too sure because the picture didn't look so clear, so Mama had an idea for Keisya to persuade Clara to come here, because Mama wanted to make sure. And sure enough, this is Clara I mean."

Keanu and I looked at each other again but still said nothing.

"Clara, have you known Keanu for a long time?" ask Mama.

"yes. ever since I sold it.. It's Keanu's shop next to my place of sale."

Mama nodded. "keep going, that boyfriend you mean, Keanu right?

I nodded with hesitation.

"what? a boyfriend? You guys dating? Since when?" Aunt Riana looks shocked. He looked at me and Keanu in turn.

"yes Ma.." Keanu lowered his head. "it hasn't been long, it's only been a few days."

Aunt Riana laughed while clapping her hands. And followed with laughter Mama and Papa.

But Keanu and I just kept quiet because confused about what to behave like? I feel wrong behavior anyway.

"basic yes jama boy now! He said he didn't want to be in a mate, but they were dating behind us..!" said Aunt Riana while continuing her laughter.

I was still silent, but Keanu seemed to be talking.

"so, all this time who wants Mama mate with me that.. Clara?"

Aunt Riana nodded. "Claras.. Aunty and her father Keanu, as well as Mama Papa you have planned this after first hearing Keisya's story.. And we were going to take all of us to meet tomorrow if you don't want to drive Keisya home, but it's good that you came here today, then we don't bother planning anything else for tomorrow."

Good Lord! It turns out that it is truly wonderful that Your plan brought us together..
