The shady face of Arumi stared fixedly at Digo. It was like looking for something from the man's serious letter. A few moments before he looked down and stirred up a drink in front of him that had stayed half.
"What am I ashamed of?" Arumi asked back.
"Because it's gonna have a husband with a family of scandals."
Arumi chuckled quite loudly. Which invites a little unfriendly gaze from the cafe visitors. Arumi does not really know how the history and life uparengga like the father. Arumi only knows if the uparengga group is the largest property company in Indonesia.
But even so heard the story of Digo with his father earlier, it did make Arumi's heart riled. Not because, she was embarrassed to get a husband from a family full of scandals such as the family uparengga. However, Arumi was afraid that he would not be accepted as the son-in-law of a conglomerate.
They are famous for often insulting the lowly like the Arumi family. That's what his father said right in front of Digo's eyes.
Unfortunately, the man did not shirk or defend his family. But just nod your head.
No doubt it becomes a fear for Arumi. Negative thoughts continued to run his conscious brain out of the ICU room. Although Arumi has tried many times to get away, still the spicy words from the mother who her father had told her, or the condescending words from the sister continue to shadow Arumi.
Long both of them were silent, because Arumi who never went to give the answer finally the girl said in a slightly trembling voice.
"Ga... There is no perfect family Digo. It's not just your family that has a myriad of scandals. My family is the same. But that is the function of scandal. To encourage other family members to stay together and not shake each other's guard." Trying to stay calm and convince Digo. Although deep in the bottom of his heart the fear of not being accepted by the Digo family grew bigger.
"Lo don't worry. Isn't one of the reasons a marriage is to perfect each other's flaws?"
Digo smiled. His heart warmed a little. She was grateful that Arumi could accept her as well as her family.
After finishing dinner, Digo said goodbye to Arumi. But before, the man actually went Digo had advised Arumi to prepare to meet his family in three days.
The perpetrator made Arumi's fear even more. In the cafe yard, Arumi continued to look at the car that Digo was riding with a flat gaze. Until, he returned to his father's room in the care along the path of Arumi continues to dream like a sambet.
His heart was unsettled. Honestly, Arumi is not ready to meet the Digo family. He was too embarrassed and afraid to come and be born from a simple family unlike them.
*His mother's mouth is so scathing when insulting the poor.
Especially your sister who married a woman who broke her own sibling relationship. So insulting and sarcastic*.
Such were his father's words earlier in the ICU room while chatting with Digo. Telling how his family's attitude often demeans small people like Arumi. And unfortunately, Digo did not evade or defend the family but instead nodded his head in accordance with the words of his father.
"Thinking of the company, the condition of papa, or the heir to the Group?" As he arrives and sits in the hospital aisle seat, Dicko, who has yet to return, approaches and sits next to Arumi.
Arumi's head who was staring flat at the hospital sky turned to look at the brother for a moment. Smile and return to the original position.
Although their properties are different such as water and fire. As much as possible though without looking good Arumi and Dicko take care of each other.
"Group's uparengga heir." He answered while holding back the smile that had almost escaped his lips.
For once in a lifetime, Dicko could not help his curiosity with what his sister was feeling.
"What's wrong with him?" his question could not hide the look of a curious face.
"He asked me to be his wife." Unbasically Arumi tells Dicko. And Dicko immediately widened his eyes in surprise.
"Haw? Same Digo?" said disjointed.
Arumi's head nodded. "Yes... Digo asked me to marry him. But I'm scared."
After a few minutes of his entire muscles tightening due to Arumi's speech, Dicko was finally able to neutralize his common sense.
"Fear why?"
"So papa sempet said that the Uparengga family always looked down on our rich poor. I'm afraid that I can't be accepted as an uparengga family as a daughter-in-law."
Not sympathetic to the anger of his sister, Dicko actually chuckles at the story of Arumi.
Arumi's forehead shriveled. "Kok brother laughs anyway? I don't have any feelings."
"Lo funny and stupid." Her index finger was already on Arumi's forehead. Pressing a few times until the girl's head looked up.
"Wedlock is lo same Digo. It's not what his father is. Who walkin it lo both, why take care of his family. Your job is the same in-laws you do not understand what your in-laws say, but being polite and respecting them is enough. Understood?"
Silently, Arumi again fell silent in thought. Her brother's words have a point too. No, he should have thought about how his family's view would be about him and his family.
"Positive thinking. Do not think a lot strange and do not care how the attitude of his family will be the same lo. Inget if the Digo is your soul mate, your priority is that he is not his father's mother let alone his sister. Don't care about them, your job is to be filial with your husband."
Arumi's eyes glazed with amazement. Not because of the words of Dicko who tried to strengthen himself, but it was Dicko who amazed him. Once in a lifetime, Arumi had never heard her brother say so beautifully like this.
About which hospital ghost who entered bang Dicko sampe can issue such words of pearl?
