This is my choice of Sweet Brownies
God gave me the best
Ardi was still sitting behind his house. Next to him sat Ni Luh in front of him Seruni sat down. They all fell silent that afternoon. No one is talking.
Ardi turned his face towards Seruni. His sister looked at his brother.
"Runi.I want to ask you today and I also want to ask you Ni Luh" Ardi took a deep breath, he tried to smile.
"First I asked you Ni Luh.Will you I propose to be my wife.and you Seruni my dear sister.Will you accept Ni Luh to be my wife?" Ardi turned away from Ni Luh to his sister.
Ni Luh was aghast and he got up from his seat. He approached Ardi and rested in front of him with his hands he was close to his chest as if he were praying.
"If that is what Ardi wants then I Ni Luh agree to your request to be your wife" She reached out to Ardi's two hands and kissed him.
"Mas.kalo emang mas match with mbak Ni..Seruni also agreed.even Runi said Alhamdulillah and I pray that you become a couple husband and wife who Sakinah mawaddah warahmah" he said smiling.
"Alhamdulillah." said Ardi.
"Mas.I want to change religion.but before I want permission to go home first and face my mother's father.when all has been done I beg mas Ardi keBali.maybe Seruni can also come along"
"Alhamdulillah O Allah I am happy" now he who rose up and approached Ni Luh.
Ardi invited Ni Luh to stand up, and he gave a warm hug to his lover. Seruni immediately looked down embarrassed to see him.

Muji escorted them to the airport.
When it's time to sign in for boarding,.Ardi tells Muji to take care of his house. Maybe he'll be gone for 1 week there.
"mas.i keBali yo, what do you want to pesen?" seruni said to Muji while smiling sweetly.
Poh..Ardi smiled to himself.ee it turns out my sister has something to do with Muji. ya ga what, I also seneng if they are made..Praise the person who is tenacious and kind.
"I'm just asking you to come back safely" Muji said with a shy smile in front of Ardi.
"God willing to pray that I may return home"
Muji waved his hand..
Through 1 hour fewer planes have reached Ngurah Rai airport. Seruni is happy he finally can reach Bali, from his small mind just want to go to Bali.want to see the island of gods and now he is there.
During the trip from Jogja to Bali, Ardi continued to hold Ni Luh's hand. It was as if he wanted to lose again. The departure of the Goddess became something of a trauma for Ardi.
Which he doesn't know yet how Rebecca thinks about their relationship. What they were going to explain to Rebecca was still a question in itself.
It is almost 2 hours drive from Denpasar to Ubud. Finally they entered the Ubud area. Seruni ta endlessly praised the natural beauty of Ubud.
Just now they arrived and took down their luggage. Suddenly Narti one of the store clerks ran up to Ni Luh. He whispered.
"Mom.there is something important.please do not in front of Pa Ardi" he said.
"What's up?" ask Ni Luh.
"Let's just go inside"
Ni Luh let Ardi and Seruni into the guest room that had been prepared and Ni Luh rushed towards the other room with Narti.
"Mas.rest for a minute.I want to talk about the store for a minute"
"I'm not sure what I'm going to take a shower, too"
********
"Sit down don't stand up" said Narti
Ni Luh sat in the chair.he was confused what was this?
"Mom.friend mother..Rebecca" said Narti brick-mortar.
"Well, what's wrong with her?" suddenly he felt in his heart something had happened.
"Rebecca was pronounced dead two days ago" Narti held Ni Luh's hand.
"So, I was told by his daughter Mr. Kul who owned the house Rebecca contacted that Rebecca was found dead in her bathroom"
"Haaaah?!" He could not believe what he heard.
"Now where is the body?"
"Still in the Hospital.waiting for the arrival of his parents from Java"
Geez what I'm going to tell Ardi just lost the Goddess.now she lost Rebecca.
Why did all my friends die? Ni Luh was confused not playing..
That night the three of them took the initiative to eat in the house only. A good opportunity for Ni Luh to tell a story.
"We need to see Rebecca before her parents come" Ni Luh said.
"Ooh his parents want to come to Bali? what's up, huh?"
"To bring the body home perhaps"
"How do you mean?" Ardi was confused
"Sir Kul who owned Rebecca's house found Rebecca dead in the bathroom"
"Whataa??" Ardi shook his head.
"I'm sorry, Ardi." said Ni Luh.
"yeah..Innalillah.."
Ni Luh quickly stood up to Ardi and hugged him tightly.
********
"Take me to the hospital, I want to see for the last time" Ardi said.
"Look we're there today"
The three of them went there with Barti Pegawau Ni Luh.
There in the room the body stiffened stiff woman who had stopped in her life. Ardi stood beside Rebecca.
"Welcome home, will missed you.I pray you're happy" Ardi said slowly, turning around and coming out of the room to meet Ni Luh and her sister.
"It's strange everything that's happened." he told Ni Luh.
"I'm here baby.I'll accompany you whenever.trust me" said Ni Luh while hugging her lover.
That night the meeting with Ni Luh's family had to be canceled until tomorrow. Ardi is still in mourning condition. First to lose the Goddess now he must lose Rebecca.
Ardi put the phone to the old man in Denpasar said he would stop by after the event in Ubud was finished.
Ni Luh already plans to talk to employees that he will often go back and forth Bali - Jogja.possibly he will also open an antique store branch in Denpasar with Ardi. Who of the employees who are interested in moving he is ready to help transfer his work.
"Runi.I will often go back and forth Bali Jogja.kamu ga what is alone in Yogyakarta?" ask Ardi his sister.
"Well, I have Muji's mas there.."
"How serious are you?"
"So he's serious, thank God" he said smiling shyly.
"But Ardi should get married first so that I can be serious with Mas Muji "
"Oh good Runi..Ni Luh turns out to be God's choice, I don't think from all the years I know.iya save his love for me. But I don't see a wave there..God gave me the Goddess and Rebecca.It turns out Ni Luh is actually my partner..God is as good as what you give your servant...."
