Elegi Love Nayla

Chapters. 9

Happy reading 💕

"Someone you want to talk to" said Maria upon arrival in the living room. He then sits his weight on the sofa opposite his son and son-in-law - Rizal and Rumi.

"What do you want to talk to us about?" Rizal responded to Maria's words with a flat expression, without a single smile accompanying him.

"Mama wants to talk about your daughter-Nayla. Exactly about Nayla's match with Jordan."

Rizal turned the lazy eyeball and breathed a rough breath. It was as if he could guess what Mary-the woman who had given birth to him wanted to say.

"Zal, undo your intentions! Don't sacrifice your princess just for your ambition! Poor Nayla. He has the right to choose his own life partner. He also deserves to live happily with the man he loves." Maria softened her tone.

"Nayla my daughter, Ma. I know everything that's best for Nayla, including the man she deserves and the best for her."

"No, Zal. You don't know what's best for Nayla. If you know what's best for her, you won't force your only daughter to accept business matchmaking. Mating Nayla with a criminal just because of your ambition to grow the wings of the business."

"Jordan's not a criminal, Ma. He is a successful and successful young entrepreneur. Moreover, he was also the sole heir of the Superpower company. Biggest company in town."

"Are you sure Jordan wasn't a criminal?"

"Yes, I'm sure. Jordan isn't a criminal like Mama and Nayla are accusing of, because it's impossible for the sole heir of the city's largest corporation to be a criminal, let alone a chicken mafia."

"Nothing is impossible, Zal. Better, you prove it yourself! You sent your confidants to find out the business Jordan runs. If Jordan proves to be a criminal or a mobster. But if our accusations are false and it is proven that Jordan is not a mobster, mama will not stand in your way, marrying Nayla to the sole heir of the Superpower company. Unless Nayla is desperate to escape or torture herself to thwart the match. Because mama really doesn't want to lose Nayla-the granddaughter of my dear mother."

"Well, if that's what you want. If Jordan proves to be a mobster, either a chicken mafia or any mafia, I promise to derail Nayla's match with him. But if Mama and Nayla's accusations are false or unproven, I'll marry them right away."

Maria sighed deeply, then exhaled slowly before reopening her voice.

"Zal, Mama wanted to tell me a little bit about Mama and Papa's past --"

"Mama doesn't need to tell me, because I already know. Even know it. Mama and Papa married because they were betrothed, like me and Rumi." Rizal paused for a moment. He folded his hands in front of his chest and crossed his right leg over his left leg.

"Ma, business matchmaking in our family is common. Even hereditary. Starting from Grandpa, Mama, me, and now Nayla. It is only we who receive and live. If we accept it and want to live it without feeling forced, we will enjoy it. We will not feel sad, tortured or depressed as Mama might feel during the household with the deceased Papa."

"Zal, you can talk like that because the woman you're betrothed to is Rumi. The woman you've loved since you were in high school. It's different with Mom and Nayla. We were betrothed to a man we absolutely did not love --"

"You're wrong, Zal! So wrong! Because nothing is impossible for a woman who has both a child and a mother." Maria prunes Rizal's speech by elevating the intonation of the voice. He could not control anger because of the words of his son who tore the heart.

"As you know, Mama tried to defend our household and faithfully accompanied Papa until he died, because she loved you and your parents. I don't want to disappoint my grandparents. Mama also does not want your future destroyed, if Mama desperate to leave Papa. Mama chose to befriend the suffering, to fight for your right as the successor to the throne of Diamond Corp, not because Mama loves your Papa. Not at all."

Rizal. He tried to digest the series of words spoken by Mary.

"Try me to ask Rumi! Can she share her husband with another woman? Can he maintain a household that is not based on love and sincerity? Can he live with the man who dyed his days with withering and tears, even pushing him into the trough of grief? Ask your wife! Try asking!"

Rizal remained unmoved. The side of his heart seemed to be sliced when he heard Mary's words. But the other side of his heart still refused to accept the words of the woman who had given birth to him.

"Ma, control your emotions! Do not let Mama get a stroke because of the overflowing anger of Mama. Better to rest in the room. If necessary, I will tell Sinta to take Mama and accompany Mama to rest," said Rumi with a soft-sounding but ugly speech (painful heart), not even reassuring.

"No need! Mama can be alone. Mama will ask Nayla to accompany Mama, not Sinta let alone you!"

"Nayla's? Is Nayla back, Ma? Where is he now?" Rumi smacked Maria with a row of question sentences.

"Yes, Nayla is back. My beloved grandson has returned to your palace with the man he loves. The man who will crush Nayla and make her a halal lover."

"What?" Rizal kicked down the table and brought his body up from a sitting position. He was very angry when he heard Mary's words.

"Zal, give Nayla a chance to introduce the man she loves! Give him a chance to express his wish! Be a wise father! Redam your ego and ambition! Get your anger too! Mama is sure, once you get to know the man, you will know .. who is worthy and best for your Nayla-daughter."

After speaking, Maria moved from a sitting position, then walked over to Rizal.

"Rush to the park! Meet Nayla and the special guests she brings." Maria whispered right in Rizal's ear accompanied by the arch of both corners of her lips that formed a smile. Then he carried his steps past from the front of Rizal and Rumi followed by Sinta who walked behind him.

A mother will strive to make her child happy, even if she has to sacrifice her happiness. And a mother will forgive easily, even if her child's tongue has hurt her heart.
