Honey-01

"Tristan and I are getting married."

Those innocent words made a woman's footsteps stop. She also looked at the two families who were meeting.

A sigh escaped her tiny lips, her chest tightened as if she was running out of oxygen. His little feet stepped in, in his eyes one by one the people who sat neatly in the living room. They all looked at the woman with pity. The gaze that the woman hated.

The woman greeted the sitting middle-aged woman gracefully. Then she also sat beside a woman who was three years old under her.

Shaquella Laura Bryce. The woman was his younger sister, only twenty-three years old, three years below a grown woman named Shequelle Tiffany Bryce. And it was he who said the word if she wanted to get married.

Happy? Yes she is happy, she is also happy. But it was the man Shaquella married that made Shequelle want to scream and cry.

Tristan Berry, he is a man who has been loved by Shaquelle for a long time. Since he sat at the high school table, they were always together even in college.

In the past, many children thought that Shaquelle and Tristan were lovers. But in fact they are just friends, especially when Tristan said that he was very interested in Shaquella — her sister.

That's when Shaquelle realized, if all this time Tristan only considered her a friend. He didn't know how Shaquelle felt since long ago. Even Tristan wasn't sensitive to the attention or what Shaquelle gave Tristan.

The friendship between Trisan and Shaquelle is known by their two families. They also think that Tristan and Shaquelle are lovers. In fact, when Tristan said that Shaquelle and Tristan were only friends. Not to mention when Tristan said that he was very interested and wanted to have a serious relationship with Shaquella.

Honestly, she really wanted to hate her sister. But whatever, love can't be forced. Shaquelle knows that.

She chose to give in and leave, harboring his feelings deeply. So that no one knows how Shaquelle felt at that time.

And yes, no one knows except Shaquelle's three friends. They know what Shaquelle feels like. How do they know Shaquelle's love journey. What's more, when Shaquelle turned down a lot of guys for Tristan's sake.

It's not that in Tristan's lyrics, Tristan is actually interested in his younger brother.

A sigh escaped Shaquelle's mouth. She also got up from her seat and went out to the terrace. Followed by Tristan who seems eager to talk to Shaquelle.

"What do you want to say?" asked Shaquelle.

She wasn't the sort of person to be clever about small talk. She likes whatever the problem must be resolved right now. But if this is Tristan's problem, it may take months to accept the reality.

"You know what I came here for?" Tristan looked at Shaquelle who didn't react, "I want to marry Shaquella." he continued doubtfully. Once again Tristan stared at Shaquelle, just wanting to confirm what kind of reaction Shaquelle was.

"Then?"

Shaquelle knows where Tristan is saying. It is customary for Shaquelle as an older sister to be stepped over first. This is a no-no, even if it's a boy it might be fine. But Shaquelle? She is a woman and in the family if you have an older sister, the younger sibling is not married.

"Sha, you are older than Ella by three years. That is a sign, we cannot marry before you get a mate. You know what our customs are like, Sha." Tristan explained, hoping that Shaquelle knew what Tristan was saying.

Shaquelle stared at Tristan, honestly she wanted to cry at Tristan's words. Whereas in the past she hoped that one day, she would marry Tristan. But in fact it wasn't him, but Shaquella — the only younger sister he had who was going to marry Tristan.

"You don't have to worry about me, Tris. Get married, I'm fine."

"How could I and Ella get married. We will not be able to get married if you are not married." Tristan explained, "I and the others will find a mate for you Sha." he continued.

Heartbroken by Tristan's words, Shaquelle stood up and looked at Tristan sharply, "Thank you for the offer. But I don't need your help Tris. Marry Ella, and don't think and worry about me."

Shaquelle just walked away in front of Tristan. Didn't he appreciate Shaquelle's feelings one bit? It took her years to forget about Tristan, what else to marry another man?

****

Shaquella's voice, which said that she wanted to get married, continued to sound clearly in Shaquelle's ears. Shouted each other with the sound of thunder, which seemed to want to grab anyone.

She still remembers when Tristan said, if he will find someone for Shaquelle, and get married soon.

Still in her dream, Shaquelle wants to marry Tristan. Fostering a harmonious household together with his best friend. But unfortunately, everything is just a dream.

Once again Shaquelle took a deep breath and turned around. There were Stella and Fabiola who were on their hips staring at Shaquelle.

"I know what makes you upset Sha." said Fabi sitting on the cream sofa.

"Not far from Tristan's word." Stella said, "I wonder about you Sha, why are you not honest with Tristan about your feelings." Stella paused, "Maybe if you confessed, this wouldn't happen." he continued.

This is not going to happen, that's right. But after confessing Shaquelle's love for Tristan. Maybe it will be bad. Their friendship will be finished right away. Shaquelle will lose Tristan for good. Instead of that happening, it would be better for Shaquelle to harbor her feelings and nobody knows.

With Shaquelle's silence, she can still be on good terms with Tristan. Asking the news, or maybe just giving help if Tristan needs her help.

"You don't know what I'm thinking, if I'm honest with Tristan. Maybe my current relationship with Hey, it's not this good." Shaquelle explained

"You are always overthinking Sha, before the war you gave up first." said Fabi.

Instead of giving up, be careful and take care of yourself. Yes, if at that time she was lucky, the goddess of luck was on her side. Otherwise everything will look like a game over.

"But if you think about it, Shasa has a point too Fabi. If Shasa confessed, maybe Tristan and Shasa will also keep their distance." said Stella.

"Yes I know, but how long does she want to continue like that Stella. She always thinks about other people's happiness, but she doesn't think about her own happiness." joked Fabiola.

Stella wanted to answer, but Shaquelle answered first. If she will be happy someday. There will definitely be a time when a prince will pick up Shaquelle on his white horse.

Hearing this made Fabi and Stella laugh out loud. She thinks this is the world of fairy tales, huh, a prince on a white horse who is ready to pick up Shequelle later?

While joking with laughter, one of the cafe employees came to Shaquelle's room. She said if there is a customer who wants to meet the owner of this cafe.

Since this cafe is under the name Shaquelle, she left the room. It's not that this cafe was built on behalf of Shaquelle. But this cafe is running with three donors, first Shaquelle, Stella and also Fabiola. They take part here, in the marketing and management of the cafe. Meanwhile, she is in finance.

"Good afternoon, can I help you, Sir."

Shaquelle spoke politely in front of a customer who looked very angry. What's more, one of the cafe employees looked down.

"Is the waiter like this in this cafe? She spilled the sauce on my shirt, and boldly gave me a gaze." the complaint

"Forgive my employees Sir. Maybe she isn't focused on work." replied Shaquelle. "For your food bill, maybe you don't need to pay your food bill. I apologize."

The man snorted, then walked away without saying sorry or thanks.

Shaquelle looked at the employee in front of him. "Next time please focus more. I know you have a problem, but I beg you not to include your personal problems with work. It will make you lose yourself."
