16 Talk about relationship

Joey and Melvin have arrived home. the house is so magnificent with white nuances consisting of two floors with a black roof with pillars that are so sturdy, consisting of several pillars and surrounded by a garden overgrown with green ornamental grass, and at night the house will be illuminated by colored lights orange that is installed in all corners of the room and outdoors. there is a garage where several luxury cars are lined up, a basketball court next to the house not far from the fitness location, and a swimming pool which is always done by Melvin and Joey who like to exercise.

they were immediately greeted by a white-faced middle-aged woman with an elegant style. The woman's name was Elena, Melvin's biological mother. She wore a heel-length dress and pulled her hair up slightly and wore light make-up.

"Joey, can you come with mommy after this?" asked Elena, Melvin's birth mother. Because Joey's biological mother has not been known since when Joey was a child.

"Where are we going, Mom? I've been busy this afternoon even though I'm sleepy from failing to take a nap." joey showed a lethargic expression while Melvin straight up the stairs to the top floor.

"We are going to the designer to order a wedding dress. Tonight the photographer who will work on your pre-wedding photos will also come here to consult with you and Dante. Mommy asked Dante to come here tonight," explained Elena.

"Looks like we'll meet the designer tomorrow," said Joey in a lazy tone.

"Why is that, Joey?" asked Elena in surprise.

"Tonight Melvin's girlfriend will come here to have dinner together. I'll start cooking later at five," Joey explained then walked to the sofa and put her bag on the sofa. "I think I can still sleep a few minutes."

"Melvin's girlfriend? Are you serious, Joey?" asked Elena like a surprised person.

Melvin, who wasn't too far away, overheard the conversation between Joey and his mother. He turned to look at them and a smile appeared on his lips. "They want me to have a girlfriend. Well then. I've got it," he whispered then continued walking towards her room.

joey lay down and leaned back on the yellowish-white sofa that looked luxurious, equipped with a glass table beside it, which was decorated with a golden white cloth with a slanted position covering the center of the table.

"Yes, Mom...Melvin really has a girlfriend and I already know his girlfriend, in fact, I just took her to an apartment," said Joey seriously.

"Is she beautiful, elegant, or even in installments, over makeup, and sexy?" asked Elena as she sat herself down on another sofa.

"She's beautiful, elegant, and still my age. Not over makeup at all, even she looks very innocent and simple," Joey explained with a smile remembering Alexa who seemed always nervous and shy but cute. "she is of Indonesian origin and very independent. Mommy will like her."

Elena nodded her head. "Hopefully what you say is true. Mommy already imagined that after you married Dante, Melvin would also be married soon."

"I hope so, Mom. Melvin seems very fond of her." Joey remembers when Alexa's foot was accidentally stepped on by Melvin. "He carried the girl in the middle of the mall crowd, even though he just stepped on it and didn't seem to hurt too much."

"Is that true?" Elena looked in disbelief.

Joey nodded her head and sat back down. "By the way, I didn't get any sleep."

"We'd better cook now. Cook a little more because Dante will also be here. We'll eat together," said Elena and then got up from the sofa leaving the living room, which was almost integrated with the living room...

joey sighed, lay back down for a moment imagining her relationship with Dante which was very serious towards marriage.

Alexa was lying in Gea's room, imagining what happened today. starting from falling into the pool, Melvin was helped, who turned out to be the one who took her to the room when she was drunk. Forcibly dropped off on the street by Siska, kicked out of the rented house, finds out that Bastian is Gea's lover and the latter is thought to be Melvin's girlfriend and finally really dating.

Check.,.

The bedroom door is open. Alexa turned towards the door and found Gea coming with about eight medium-sized paper bags of various colors. Her friend looked tired and immediately threw the paper bag on the bed.

"You're relaxing at home while I'm tired of looking for clothes for you," Gea muttered, glancing at Alexa in horror.

"It's your fault for leaving me with Melvin. And in the end, everything went wrong," said Alexa grumblingly.

"I can't bear to just leave Bastian. and as it turned out, he asked me to buy some jewelry and asked me to choose clothes for you. He paid for all the groceries and my money ... intact," explained Gea ending with an amused smile.

"You don't know what happened to me, it's more confusing than your relationship with Mr. Bastian," Alexa mumbled, sitting cross-legged and hugging a pink pillow with a teddy bear on it.

"Ah Yeah... actually what happened between you and Melvin? why did you get carried him?" Gea asked while remembering the incident at the mall.

"My foot was just accidentally stepped on by his foot. I was in pain even being carried. He was outrageous," explained Alexa with pursed lips. "And now we..."

"What? why are you guys?" Gea is getting excited.

"We're dating," Alexa said, bending her face.

Unlike Alexa, who looked confused, Gea was overjoyed and immediately embraced Alexa until she rolled over on the bed. "Gosh, did I hear right? You guys are dating?"

"Gea!" Alexa angrily pushed Gea to let go of her hug.

Gea chuckled then sat back down and tossed her slightly messy hair. she looked at Alexa who didn't seem to like it.

"Your boyfriend is very handsome, and why are you two dating? Please explain to me? how did that happen when you guys just met this morning? er, mistake ... I meant last night."

"Long story," Alexa muttered lazily telling the story. "The point is, like it or not, I have to be his girlfriend. and tonight he will come here to pick me up to have dinner with his family."

"Good grief!" Gea tapped Alexa's shoulder reflexively. "Just dating. Are you going to be invited to his parent's house to meet his family? Alexa, you are very lucky more than me!"

"Or I'll be worse than you." Alexa is still unsure and wonders why Melvin suddenly wants to make her his girlfriend. The reasons that have been explained are not enough to make her say that this courtship is a healthy and natural relationship.

"Never mind... just accept this happy reality. You should feel lucky to be Melvin's chosen girl who other girls will be after. You are the winner, Alexa." Gea assured then took some paper bags on the bed. "I just buy some pretty cool clothes for you. I'm going to make you look so pretty tonight so your future in-laws will accept you as son-in-law right away!"

"Don't overdo it ... this courtship status is still hard for me to believe," Alexa exclaimed, frowning, staring at some of the clothes that Gea had bought. 'But if he's going to like me ... I'm a lucky girl,' she thought, starting to fantasize about Melvin's handsome face that fascinated her even though it was annoying.
