Like Rico promised last night that he'd talk to his dad and mom this morning.

" I want to talk to both of you, it's important, mom and dad don't want anything covered up, you two have breakfast waiting in the study".

" Good Pa", replied Rico and Anya together.

Anya looked agitated, looking at that. Rico clasped Anya's hand for strength. He looked at his beloved wife with a smile.

Finish breakfast Rico and Anya head to Papa Broto's study. The two of them walked hand in hand.

What you and your mom want to talk about, until you want us both there, inner Rico.

Rico knocked on the door, without waiting for an answer from inside Rico opened the door and entered.

They sat on the sofa in the middle of the room, facing Mama, followed by Papa Broto who previously sat at the desk.

"Anya and Rico, before Papa apologized for being forced to ask you this, but this is not the final decision, papa need to invite you to talk from heart to heart, papa, papa and mama want what, and vice versa, you want what, we find a middle ground, so that this problem finds a way out".

Papa Broto took a deep breath, presumably feeling heavy conveying what was in his heart.

"You're married almost four years, of course, papa and mama hope you give your grandchildren to papa and mama, but until now there has been no sign of Anya getting pregnant, she said, four years is not a short time from the expectations of parents who want the grandchildren of their children, you Rico, you can not help but you have to have children. You're the heir to the Broto corp. You can't go on like this, papa and mama are over sixty years old, there's no guarantee papa and mama can live another year. So before papa and mama leave, papa and mama want to hold the grandchildren of you two".

Listening to what the father-in-law said, Anya's heart became tenuous, she felt sad because she could not give grandchildren to her two in-laws.

Unknowingly Anya tears fall down her cheeks, several times she has to wipe the tears with the back of her hand, until Rico realizes Anya is crying and takes a tisyu for his wife.

As Rico was about to answer, Anya forbade him. He himself wants to talk.

"Father and mama, I apologize in advance, because until now, I have not been able to give grandchildren to papa and mama, I realize my weakness pa, ma (Anya wiped her tears again), I know my weakness pa, ma, I understand the feelings of papa and mama, for that, I give up completely to papa and mama, what the desire of papa and mama to immediately have a grandchild".

" Sorry pa ma, if I'm private, please give us another year's time, no. Half a year's time, we will try in various ways so that Anya can get pregnant, no, actually, it's been a long time since I consulted, but I always refused, so it's not entirely Anya's fault".

There is dissatisfaction in Mr. Broto's heart,

" Four months Ric, that's enough, if you're both healthy you can, in that time, if necessary, let the company papa tackle temporarily, you papa give time for a second honeymoon".

" Today you also have to go to an obstetrician, do not delay, said the mother".

" Good Ma". Anya answered.

This afternoon on the way to the obstetrician, Anya was silent not talking, usually they never stop talking when in the car.

Rico knew Anya's unrest, he held her beloved wife's hand, and Anya's hand was cold.

Rico kissed Anya's hand. Anya turned her head towards Rico with a smile, she assured her husband that she was okay through the look in her eyes and her sweet smile.

Until the obstetrician there are various tests that they do, to know the results of another week they must come again.

They did this for up to four months, but without success.

The doctor said there was no problem, but he had to be more patient.

And it turns out that it causes Papa Rico's patience to run out.

" Rico, you're home early, papa wants to talk".

Arriving home, Rico went straight to the study, his papa was waiting there.

" It's just papa straight yes, it's been four months Ric no results, papa and mama getting older, sorry, but this papa deliver it forced, very forced, very forced, but there seems to be no way out".

Rico took a deep breath, he was in a dilemma, Anya the wife he loved so much, on the other hand, papa and his mother did look old and fragile.

" Good Pa, now you want papa, Rico how's it going ?"

" You know Om Farhan, papa's college friend ?"

" Do not understand pa. what does it have to do with Anya's pregnancy ?".

" He wants to marry his son to you ".

Rico was shocked, his papa conveyed it, as if it was not something heavy.he did not expect his papa's mind to go that far.

" Papa, do you realize what you're saying ?"

" Conscious, conscious as you know, there is no other choice, papa is getting older, papa wants to hold a grandchild from you, while there is no certainty when you are pregnant".

Rico seemed to harbor anger at his papa, but he couldn't do much either.

" Papa can't say that anymore, pity Anya she's suffering more and more ".

" You don't think your mama is suffering, at our age, even our grandchildren don't have!!, as for but rarely met, you think papa is not sad !!, papa wants momong Rico's grandson, simple as that.you're angry !!"

Looks childish.

" Papa's like a little boy, not fast papa says rich like that".

" Let's see tomorrow if you're the same age as papa, at home you don't mind, surely you'll feel what papa feels".

" Don't talk about anything that doesn't make sense anymore, I don't want to, I love Anya, I won't replace Anya with anyone".

" Who told you to leave Anya, you stay with Anya, but you marry again, marry the same person who is not barren, who can love your grandchildren !!"

Mr. Broto was unconscious, his voice was so loud it even sounded out.

Anya and her mother-in-law were also shocked to hear Papa Broto speak loudly.

At that time they set the dining table, for dinner.

Hearing that Anya fell down, her face pale. Her mother-in-law immediately took Anya out to the back porch, where they would not hear papa's voice and Rico quarreled.

Mama immediately brought water for Anya to calm down.

Unknowingly tears shed, falling on Anya's smooth cheeks.

Because he is a harmonious family so there is a quarrel, because of him this family becomes sad.

Anya will not forgive herself, if anything happens to this family.
