9. Surprise

"Mr. San's family? I'll find it for a while, Ma'am," the receptionist replied.

Zahra waited for a while and was then directed to wait in the lobby, while the receptionist informed the guest named Mr. San.

"Good morning," a man's voice from behind Zahra's direction.

At that moment Zahra immediately turned around and her heart said that the voice was familiar to her ears. Suddenly Zahra was surprised when the man who was in front of her at that time turned out to be Joon.

Between believing and not believing, Zahra called him, "Joon?"

The man smiled then nodded and bowed his body before Zahra.

"Just a moment. You greeted me in Indonesian? Still, remember?" Zahra asked.

"Of course it's Zahra. I'll never forget," Joon replied in Indonesian again.

Zahra was even more astonished. Because at that time he hadn't used the application on the smartphone as a language translator at all. But it turns out that Joon already understands and even answers his questions in Indonesian.

"You learned Indonesian?" Zahra asked.

Confidently, Joon replied "Yes."

Behind Joon, there were two people. A man and a girl. Joon immediately introduced the two of them.

"Zahra, introduce. This is my mother, her name is Ayeong. And this is my father. Mr. San," Joon said.

"Oh. Hello... Zahra," Zahra said as she became acquainted with Joon's parents.

" What's your

purpose here really Joon? Why to take your parents too?" asked Zahra.

"Zahra. This is a testament to my feelings of love for you. Now, I have graduated from education in Korea. I deliberately learned Indonesian, so that I could communicate more fluently when we met," said Joon.

Zahra was silent and her heart suddenly skipped a beat. It wasn't until this time that Zahra felt this kind of thing. A man, a tourist from Korea, said a feeling of love to himself. Indeed, so far they have always communicated through the internet. Although later there were obstacles so their communication was simply cut off.

Zahra didn't expect it at all before. The man she hoped to only appear in cyberspace gave the news of her whereabouts, now instead she came directly to Indonesia and took her parents too. That of course made Zahra very moved. For a few moments, she couldn't say anything to Joon. A huge feeling of pleasure mixed with the feeling of surprise made him speechless.

"Joon. Why have you disappeared recently? You did deliberately not reply to the email from me?" Zahra asked.

"Sorry, you're so busy Zahra. I prepared all this by myself. I also have to finish my Indonesian lessons first," Joon replied.

"You can tell me, so as not to wait

too much for something uncertain. You've read my last email yet?"

Zahra asked.

Joon shook his head and then apologized again to Zahra.

"Then, are these all you planned before? You

communicated with Mr. Garda?"

Zahra asked with a smile.

This time Joon nodded.

Zahra immediately pinched Joon until the man was in pain and Zahra in the end apologized to Joon as well.

"Dad and Mom, do you want to be taken for a walk around the city, or how about it?" Zahra asked.

"Of course. They can't wait to go for a walk. They were very interested when I told him about the beauty of the scenery here," Joon replied.

"Okay. We just set off right away then. I've brought his office car, Mr. Garda," Zahra said, showing the car key in her hand.

"So you are the translator for your father and mother. I don't have to use a smartphone anymore," Zahra said before running her car.

"But for a while. You are sure you can drive this

car, right?" Joon asked.

Zahra, who felt underestimated by Joon, then took a card in her wallet.

"This is if it's called driver's license A. Car's driving license," Zahra said, showing the card in her hand.

"You don't have to be afraid," Zahra said again.

Only then did Joon become more convinced. Zahra immediately ran to the car.

"Immediately want to go to the Jogja Palace like when you used to or how is this?" Zahra asked.

"Okay. Just agree with Zahra,"

Joon replied.

Zahra took the three of them around. Nowadays it's a lot easier because Joon can already. English.

"You're great Joon. Can speak smoothly like this.

How long to learn?" Zahra asked.

Joon smiled as he recalled.

"After I got home from here I went straight to study. But we can only focus on graduating from formal school," Joon replied.

"But coke you don't love to know me at all about

it? Cheat!" asked Zahra.

Joon laughed because he intended to give Zahra a surprise from the beginning.

"Zahra. Don't forget to invite you to buy the Jogja gudeg that used to be," said Joon.

"What? Want more? Equally father and mother too this?" ask Zahra.

"Yes. It should be. It's a loss to get here but not to eat gudeg," Joon replied very excitedly.

In addition to eating gudeg, that day it turned out that Joon also asked Zahra to invite her to

ride in a horse-drawn carriage.

"Zahra, before dad and mom came home. Can't they visit your house? Also, get acquainted with your mother?" Joon asked.

"Yes, of course, it is okay. Indeed, when do you want to go back? It's still a few days away, right here?" Zahra asked.

"Two more days here. But if I'm longer here how? You glad you're not Zahra?" ask Joon.

"What? Longer here? What do you mean, Joon?" said Zahra. She didn't seem to understand the meaning of Joon's words just now.

"Yes. The plan is that I want to apply for college here. If it's accepted," Joon said.

"Study here? You're serious?" asked Zahra.

Joon then looked at Zahra very seriously and said, "Zahra, I love you. Will you marry me?" Zahra's face flushed instantly. He was already surprised by Joon's arrival with his parents in Jogja, and now Joon even proposed to him so soon.
