Fear of Marriage

Apologize and get on your knees

Ririn was still confined in her house, she had not dared to come out of her parents' room since the police had come looking for her. He paced around thinking how he could get out of the house, while Hartono continued to work as usual and did not care about his son. After all, he must be responsible for his mistakes, even though it is too late to teach it to his son.

His mother came in and brought him dinner, the woman took the tray from his mother's hand and ate the food.he did not look at all sorry and felt guilty for making such an uproar.

The door of the room opened making Ririn almost throw her food and run to hide. But the one who entered was Hartono making him breathe a sigh of relief.

“Papa already thought of the exit?” hearing that made Ririn smile, she was sure that her father would not be able to leave her in prison.

“What, Pa” asked with a sweet smile.

“Follow Papa to the house of Mr. Anggoro, kneel down and apologize to them and also to William's future wife who almost lost her life it”

Hartono had heard the news, too late to find a little more, Karenina might lose her life. He concluded that his son really wanted to eliminate the woman.

Ririn laughed sarcastically at Hartono's proposal.

“Papa tell me, Ririn Sarasya kneels in front of people. Who are they until I have to kneel before them. Especially in front of the village women whose degrees were much lower below me. Papa wants me to kneel in front of that village woman” shouted Ririn in anger.

“At least it can reduce your sentence, you do not know that Mr. Anggoro has asked the police to handle this firmly. There will be no mercy for you. If you plead with that woman, maybe she'll ask William to ease your sentence” said Hartono. It's the only way to get pardoned Karenina and the Anggoro family.

It seemed like it made sense to Mother Ririn, she also agreed with her husband's idea. It's okay to be humble just once, after that he will take Ririn to a very far place and forget about this incident.

But unfortunately Ririn firmly refused desperately shortcuts offered by her parents. He would rather be in jail than have to humble himself in front of Karenina.

“Ngak will” said.

“Great are you” said Hartono who looks very tired. Hartono then left his room, for a while he had to sleep in the guest room because Ririn could not get out of the main room at this time.

“I will definitely reply to this, Will. I'm not gonna let you settle down with that village lady. You're gonna pay for all this” Ririn clenched her hand tightly. Huh, instead of repenting, he was even more vengeful.

“What else do you want to do, is this incident not enough to teach you a lesson?” The mother who heard it advised him, but Ririn turned her back to her mother. The middle-aged woman could only take a heavy breath looking at her child. As if Ririn had a mental disorder.

Meanwhile at a nightclub where Merry used to go, William holds Karenina's hand looking for her safe whereabouts. Meet, they saw Merry sitting pensively in front of the bartender table, in front of him there was a drink ready in the sip.

“Mer..., Merry” Karenina must shout because the noise of music makes her voice sink. He approaches Merry alone and asks William to only see them from a distance. William did it this time. She was amazed by the kind and sincere heart her lover had. While he himself was also not doing well and almost lost his life due to the kidnapping, he could still worry about others. William is so grateful to be able to love a woman like Karenina.

“Nina..., you are sick why you are in a place like this” said Merry who immediately stood to see Karenina. Merry was very upset with Karenina and Rara for asking her to talk to Ryan, but seeing Karenina who came looking for her when she was a hospital patient made her anger disappear instantly.

“I'm looking for you, Rara says you're not at home” she said,bil sitting on smaping Merry.

“Sorry yes, I was ..”

“Already, it's okay” cut Merry quickly. He intended to drive Karenina back to the hospital.

“Mer..”

“Heem..”.

“You don't want to tell me if you're the same.” Karenina doesn't want to say Ryan's name, afraid Merry will be angry again.

“I was disappointed with him” was not in the least, Merry finally wanted to tell a story.

“He left me just because my parents gave him money to continue his schooling” Merry started telling stories. He sidestepped his car and started telling his story to Karenina.

“We've been dating since High School, I love her so much. I rejected many men who were idols at the school just because of him, because I sincerely like him” Karenina listened and could not comment.

“Then my mom found out about our relationship and forbade me to hook up with Ryan because her dad was just a driver and her mom was selling at school. But Ryan and I continued our relationship until we finished school.”.

“My mother finally came to Ryan's parents and asked them to force Ryan away from me because I didn't want to stay away from him, I love him so much, Nin”

“They didn't manage to persuade Ryan to stay away from me because we were very romantic at the time. Ryan is very considerate of me, he dared to oppose my Mama who blatantly threatened to make her family live hard if still continue her relationship with me”

“But one day, Ryan suddenly turned to me, he stayed away from me and didn't want to see me again. And you know what the reason is, why did she end up breaking up with me?” Karenina shakes.

“Because Mama gave her a lot of money to continue her school and also her sister's school fees. Our relationship with money. What kind of man sacrifices his girlfriend just for money” Merry ends up crying in Karenina's arms.

From then on, Merry no longer wanted to believe in men and since then his relationship with his mother has become very distant. He left home and lived alone outside because he was still disappointed with his mother who always used money to overcome problems.

“But why don't you hear an explanation, Ryan. Maybe he has his own reasons” said Karenina.

“The reason is very clear, Nin. He needs that money, he can tell me if he needs money, I can ask for Oma or Opa or Papa. But she took the money from Mama and left me. I'm very disappointed, Nin. I can't forgive her cheerful Merry” crying in Karenina's arms.

After a little more calm, Merry drove back to the car to drive Karenina to the hospital.

“Mer, I think you should hear Ryan's explanation. Maybe you misunderstood” Karenina is still trying to persuade Merry.

“Mistake what else, Nin. Obviously he took the money otherwise how could he have gone to school and become the personal assistant director of S&M. Her parents couldn't possibly afford her school” Karenina sighed, it seems that it's still very difficult to make Merry want to hear Ryan's explanation.
