Forced to Marry My Friend's Lover

TMX 08. Negotiating

Nara closes her conversation with Hiro over the phone. After Hana tells her that her best friend is coming to see her, Nara believes that Hana has changed her mind. Hana who was previously determined not to accept his offer, now willingly he came to him. It is true that people say if they are in a state of being squeezed can really tear down the solidity of the self-fortification. Nara smiled with satisfaction because everything went according to what she planned.

The footsteps of a person are heard getting closer to the private space he ordered. His heart grew happier when the person he was waiting for arrived at the restaurant. He glanced at the door leaf and soon entered two women, one of whom he knew.

"Welcome my best friend, Hana!"

Nara moved from her sitting position. He swung his legs to get closer to Hana who had just arrived and was delivered by a servant. With a smile, he welcomed his friend.

Hannah could not say anything. His mind and heart were raging. They are like fighting to keep Hana in control. Her little heart whispered so that Hana would not do something silly like this. While the logic screams if there is currently a life that he must save. Who else if not the life of the father. Hana just smiled a little and nodded slowly.

"Thank you Ra!"

"Well, let's sit there!" Before returning to the place, Nara approached the waiter. "OK Ma'am, because what I'm waiting for has arrived, all my food orders please be delivered here. Remember, don't let anything go wrong. Because this guest of mine is a special guest."

Waitress momentarily glanced at Hana. He was very surprised if a woman with a look like this became a special guest.

The hair was messy, the clothes looked cheap, the face was dull, and just now when I was walking nearby also smelled an unpleasant scent. Special where is this woman from? This is more appropriate if it is called a gembel.

Realizing that it was too deep he dissolved in insults for Hana, the waitress smiled. "Okay, please wait. I prepared everything."

Waitress this restaurant breezed away leaving the private space that had been ordered by Nara. Nara walked closer to Hana. He shifted his chair and he landed his ass there.

"We'll wait for my girlfriend in a minute, Han. He's on the road. And after he comes, we talk about the agreement that we will agree on" said Nara a little relaxed.

This time Nara did not have to bother to find a way out of obeying the will of the grandfather of the lover. Because the road was wide open by itself. Certainly with the faltering defense of Hana's heart.

"Ra, does it have to be that way? Is it not possible if I owe you a debt and every month little by little I return it to you until the amount is in accordance with the money you lend?"

Hana is still trying to negotiate with Nara. He hopes Nara can change her decision and not to undergo a marriage setting like this. He also hopes that his little heart is open so that he realizes that marriage is not a game. Marriage is sacred where a pair of people promise before God to live a life of heaven.

Nara chuckled for a moment until her voice sounded so blaringly filled the ceiling of this private room. Intensely, the woman stared at Hana's bead eyes.

"Han, the money I spent on the cost of operating om Ndaru is not small. Do you remember exactly how much the nominal is? Nearly one hundred and fifty million. With such a fantastic nominal, how many tens of years would you pay it off, Hana?"

"But I'm sure I can pay it off quickly Ra. I will work even harder to complete my obligations. I promised Ra!"

Nara grew increasingly open to listening to the negotiations from Hana. The woman persisted to shake her head.

"Can't Han. No matter how hard you work, you will never be able to pay it off. Remember Han, you're just a high school graduate. The highest salary you can get is probably just the UMR of this city."

Both of Hana's eyeballs were perfectly wide. There was an invisible dagger stabbing that felt so piercing his heart when he heard every word spoken from Nara's lips. Very painful and painful felt.

Hana really did not expect if the attitude and behavior of Nara changed eighty degrees from the days of High School. The figure of Nara who used to put forward conscience more often, now seems to be lost in the earth. The woman now puts her logic far more forward than her conscience.

Nara who saw Hana speechless herself could only chuckle softly. He grabbed Hana's palm and held her tightly.

"Rather than you having to suffer from working hard, you better follow my game, Hana. If you follow my game, those debts will automatically be paid off. Hows it? It's easy and simple, isn't it?"

"But this is all like trampling on my pride Ra. I who dream of building a family with the man I love, must be cut off in this lowly way."

"What Han? Self-worth? Haha." Nara. Her stomach seemed to be shaken all out when she heard Hana talking about self-esteem. "Never talk about self-esteem in a squeezed and squashed situation like this, Hana. It will never save your position. Understood?"

Hana gave a rough breath. This time there was nothing he could do but accept the offer from Nara. He confirmed Nara's words, that at this time all he had to save was the father not his pride.

"Trust me, this is all temporary and will not harm you at all. It might even benefit you, Hana."

"What kind of advantage does Ra? Try to explain to me what kind of luck I get if after this my life will be confined in your game," asked Hana a little demanding an explanation.

Nara was getting more and more excited to hear it. "Sacrifice a little Ra. Sacrifice for your father who is currently struggling to survive. You don't want to make Ndaru suffer, do you?"

There was no sound at all. Only the sound of air conditioning was heard softly in their ears.

"You're doing your part well enough and your life will be lucky, Hana. Hows it? Do you still want to retreat?"

The rhetorical question of Nara actually makes Hana more and more cornered. For the umpteenth time he let out a rough breath, unraveling all the tightness in the chest.

"All right, I'll follow your game, Ra. I'm going to have a contract marriage with your lover."

"Good Ra. That's what I want from you!"

A grin rose on Nara's lips. His heart seemed so happy that there was no counting on having a friend who was so obedient like Hana. Until, the eyes that had previously stared intensely at Nara's face, now he shifted towards the door when there was a boisterous sound from outside. Before long the door opened wide and saw Hiro standing gallantly.

"Finally darling, you're coming too."

"Just tell me, where's that woman Ra?"

Nara chuckles. "Han, try to hold your face. My lover wants to see you in person!"

With a heavy heart, Hana slowly raised her face. He who was previously intensely staring at the floor, now he looks fixed on the face of the man who will be his setting husband.

"You?" hana and Hiro's strangulation simultaneously when the two are reunited.
