Fear of Marriage

Parapet wall

Karenina meets Farel in front of the restaurant entrance, she grabs the shoulder of the man as she crosses paths with him. Karenina is really angry right now.

“Nina, you why? Aunt Mutiara said what's the same to you?” Karenina ignored Farel, she stood by the roadside waiting for a passing taxi.

“Come, I'll take you home”, Farel said. Seeing Karenina's dead red face, Farel did not dare to ask her to joke. Karenina still did not care, her eyes focused on the road where the vehicle passed by and observed the taxi that did not carry passengers.

Karenina managed to stop the taxi, she got in quickly as soon as the taxi stopped in front of her. Farel did not even have time to stop him. After Karenina's taxi got further away, Farel ran back into the restaurant and looked for Pearl.

“Basic brat, you said what the same Karenina until she considers this auntie your” wife, had not had time to ask Farel what happened, Pearl already pulled her ears. Instead of being in pain, Farel chuckled.

“Tante himself said that I have to bring a future aunt's daughter-in-law in any way”, said Farel rubbed his ears in the pearl jewel earlier.

“Indeed Aunt said what the same Nina, why she was angry so”, Farel walked by embracing the shoulders of Pearl towards the parking lot.

Sebastian and Mutiara had regarded Farel as his biological son, giving the same affection between William, Farel and Meisya. Even Farel's wife served as a director at one of S&M's subsidiaries. While Farel himself, he has a simple car repair shop because he is a hobby with vehicle engines.

Farel did not like luxury very much, nor did he want to think much about business. That's why he won't hold any office at S&M.

“Tante is just a little kidding”, said Pearl sneaky. Farel squinted at the tant, thinking that the pearls might be a little too outrageous to make Karenina very angry.

“Tante agrees that William is the same girl, he seems to be able to conquer your arrogant cousin. It is fitting that she rejects the beautiful Ririn, it turns out that she got the sweet and cute Karenina”.

After hearing rumors that had circulated on S&M, Pearl became very curious about the figure of Karenina. He then asked Farel to take Karenina to meet him, and after meeting Pearl was satisfied with his son's choice.

Sebastian and Pearl have also investigated Karenina's background, they know Karenina is an orphan raised by om and tantenya. They also know that Karenina wandered into this big city alone to avoid a marriage arranged by her aunt who did not give her the love of a mother.

Although their first meeting left a disappointment in Karenina's heart, Pearl promised to apologize to her when they meet again in the near future.

After meeting Pearl, Karenina did not return to Dimension. He went home with an angry and disappointed heart.

‘Sial, I am very hurt as Madam Mutiara said. As poor as I am, I don't want to sell my relationship either. William is so good with me. What if Madam Mutiara knows William loves me unlimited credit cards, fortunately I never use’.

Karenina decides not to tell William her meeting with Pearl, she does not want to make the relationship between mother and child becomes tenuous. Let her live out her relationship with William as usual, until William gets bored and leaves her. That's as simple as his thinking.

“I don't want to involve my heart too deeply anymore, I don't want to be hurt just because of love. Shit, this is the one that makes me lazy to have a girlfriend. Make dizzy”.

After being satisfied to get her heart out on the wall in her room, Karenina felt her stomach rumbling, she just remembered that since last night she had not touched the rice at all.

“I got hungry so angry”, Karenina then went out her room and headed for the kitchen.

“Since you entered the house while ngomel” said Merry whose eyes were only on the food in front of him. Karenina takes the spoon and pulls the chair closer to Merry's bowl and then without permission starts to help Merry finish the meatball.

“Tumben is home at this hour, are you sick?” ask Karenina. He glanced at Merry waiting for the woman to answer him.

“I accidentally met his mother your girlfriend's assistant in the restaurant, I so not the mood continued work” replied Merry without changing his face. “if you?” ask him back with his show.

Karenina did not continue to put the meatballs that were already in front of her mouth, she put the spoon back into the bowl.

“Kok same as I”, Merry knitted her eyebrows do not understand “I also do not mood continued work because it had met his mother William”. Now Merry has also kept his spoon in the bowl, he drank cold water that he had prepared before eating earlier.

“You mean?”. Karenina breathed heavily. He drank the cold water that Merry had been drinking before answering Merry's question.

Later Karenina and Merry become closer than ever in terms of emotional, Karenina no longer hesitate to share the story with Merry who she already considers more than just a friend. And Merry is also a good listener for Karenina.

“Mrs Pearl will give me money as long as I leave William”. Silence, no sound was heard at all. The two women looked at each other, from her eyes as if Merry was asking really that?.

Karenina sniffed her shoulders and put the meatballs back in her mouth while Merry still silently looked at her.

“Terus?” ask Merry then “You accept the offer?”

“You think I'm a matre girl, although I like money but I also don't want to get money in such a despicable way. It was the same as me betraying William” he said. Merry nodded in relief.

“If William asks for our relationship to end, I will accept. Although..” Karenina was silent again, she played a meatball that still had some seeds in the bowl. Merry watches him, knowing that William already has a place in the heart of his theme.

Merry sighed, she quite understood the complexity of Karenina.

“I was self-conscious also Mer time, I was the same William was blocked a very high barrier wall. Even though I climbed that wall for hundreds of years also I will not be able to pass the barrier”.

Karenina thinks she doesn't have the qualifications to pass through the barriers that block them, a sturdy wall called social status, degree or caste. He was at the bottom of the social status while William was at the top of the line

“But what if William breaks that barrier without having to work through it?” Karenina laughed discordantly, William could not possibly fight his parents just for a woman like her.

“William could not, because to break the wall he had to fight his parents. And I don't want William to be an ungodly child just because I”.

“Ck, what are we talking about. The point is I will enjoy the time to be William's lover, like anything in the future I will not hurt”, he said again despite something strange in his heart. a sense of tightness that can not be told what it looks like but is quite disturbing.

‘Wil, I miss you’.
