Getting Married Without a Relationship

Ring 4 (Finished)

It had been five minutes Rei had not moved from the front of the mirror. He stood still while looking at himself.

Are you sure?

Will you be happy with your decision?

Will everything be okay? Especially with career?

Are you ready to be a father?

How are you gonna explain everything to Nadine?

Will you still be able to live without him?

There were already thousands of questions that flashed through Rei's head without knowing the answer.

Rei blinked because someone knocked on the door of his room.

"Boss?" Sayup-sayup heard Iban's voice calling from outside.

"Boss, are you done? Mas Nino is waiting" Iban said.

Rei checked once again his appearance, and tidied up a bit of his blazer.

"Well Reindra, you did the right thing" he told himself.

Tonight, Rei plans to go to Dara's house to meet her parents, as he promised Dara's brothers yesterday.

Rei's out of the room. Apparently Iban was still standing in front of the room door with a beaming face.

"Why?" ask Rei astonished.

"Boss, am I not dreaming right now?"

"You mean?"

"Say Mas Nino, Boss is getting married, is that true?" Rei blinked at Iban's question. But inexhaustible, it seemed like his assistant was happy to hear Rei was getting married. Yeah, because Iban doesn't know why Rei should get married.

"Yes, I'm getting married" Rei replied. Instantly Rei was hugged by the slightly seductive man.

"Hey, what the fuck are you?" Rei threw Iban away in disgust.

"Congratulations, Boss. I swear I'm glad to hear it."

From the sitting room, Nino giggled at the behavior of the artist and his assistant.

"Ray ...." Nino exclaimed as she touched her watch with her index finger as they were already too late.

Meanwhile, at Dara's house there was a little tension, before Andi and Alan had offended there would be guests who would visit tonight. Dara's mother immediately asked questions, but Alan managed to relieve her mother's curiosity. According to him, if his mother knew now, she was afraid that the meeting would be a little messy, so just waiting for Rei to come first, just explained everything.

Dara came home early from the office when she was told by her brother that Rei was coming. Dara's shocked not a bitch. Though before he thought, the man would be relieved of responsibility. Is Rei willing to take responsibility because he is afraid his career will be ruined? Whatever the reason, the important thing now is that the child in his stomach will have a clear status.

Dara was confused to choose the clothes she would wear now. 'That's right, I don't have any good clothes, ' he said. Maybe it's just the velvet dress she bought last year. Dara was silent to realize one thing, that she was too indifferent to the affairs of appearance.

Dara very rarely buy clothes or other personal things such as to the salon. Maybe, if he is dating someone, will only pay attention to appearance.

Suddenly someone knocked on the door, then Alan turned his head into Dara's room.

"Ra, aren't you ready? Rei's coming, huh." Dara blinked, for some reason her heart seemed to sag downwards hearing Rei had arrived.

"Oh, yes, Brother ...."

"Quickly, yes ..," said Alan and then closed the door.

Dara looked at herself in the mirror and took a deep breath. 'I have to be ready. Dara pulled one shirt in her closet without her choosing again, then went to the living room.

🌷🌷🌷

When he first arrived, Rei and Nino were stunned to see how good Dara's house was. Until entering the house, Rei and Nino had not stopped being amazed to see the house. Rei is grateful to be there riding one of his luxury sports cars.

Nino was shocked to find out who Dara's father was. Turns out he was one of the professors on his campus first. The young man could not bear to tell Rei, but now was not the time. He knew how fierce Professor Salim Pratikno was.

Secretly Nino shuddered, not believing Rei would have his Professor's in-laws. It's disastrous.

Now Rei, Nino, Dara and the family, gathered in the living room. It was Nino who was going to be the speaker, but after knowing who he was going to face, immediately his guts became shrivelled, Rei was a little surprised by Nino's sudden attitude like a cracker doused in water.

"Hey, let's talk!" whispered Rei.

"I can't, I'll tell you later."

Rei sighed in annoyance, for God's sake this kind of atmosphere was really unpleasant, look at the faces of Dara's parents, it was really scary especially her father. At a glance people could see that the middle-aged man had a nature that was not much different from Hittler. Play a little, you'll die in his hands.

Meanwhile, Dara's father waited for Rei to speak with a frightening look in his eyes. Several times Rei******* his lips to ease his nervousness, but without success. However, as if Alan could read the situation, he began to speak up.

"Pa, they're Rei and Nino."

"Silent Alan, let them do the talking" interrupted Dara's father in a stern tone. Seeing her father like that, Dara so ketar-ketir, he had to find a way to melt the atmosphere. As his brain was thinking, suddenly Rei started to make a sound.

"I came here now to propose to Dara, sir. I want to marry your daughter" Rei said directly to the point, because from his observation, Dara's parents did not seem to like to mince words.

Dara's mother's mouth was open. He could not believe what he was hearing now. Either he must be happy or disappointed, because Dara had never discussed this issue with him before.

"What's? You're going to marry my daughter? Why do you want to marry my daughter?" dara's father asked straightforwardly, there sounded a tone of dislike in his voice, and his heavy but sharp voice, making Rei a little trembling. But Rei must be able to control himself.

"Because I love him, sir." Rei replied firmly.

Dara looked up at Rei, she did not expect Rei to give the answer, she thought the man would answer because Dara was pregnant, but it was not. Dara was a little impressed with the man's attitude. If she replies that Dara is pregnant, she believes Rei will not return home safely. And he himself will also be a captive of the house with torments he will never imagine.

Alan took a deep breath, he saluted with courage Rei could face his parents like that. Now Alan believes Rei is a good man.

Dara's father took a breath and threw it away slowly. Now he looks more relaxed and changes his sitting position more relaxed. Unknowingly Dara breathed a sigh of relief, she knew now that her father was more relaxed.

"really? Did you know Dara has two sisters who are both unmarried?"

"Yes, I know," replied Rei.

"If Dara is married, it means she has to step over her two brothers" said Dara's father sharply.

"We don't have a problem, Pa" Andi said.

"Yes, we don't mind if Dara gets married first, the most important thing now is Dara's happiness. Usually women want to marry young, right, Ra?"

Dara snapped her name called Alan. Dara just nodded and smiled wryly. I don't know, actually he doesn't know what's going on. He had never dated once, but suddenly now he was being proposed to by a man he did not know. How laughable.

"Well then, when are you planning on marrying my son?" ask Salim Pratikno.

Again Rei******* his lips before he answers the question. "Fastly, Sir. I want to marry her in a month."

"What?!" exclaimed Dara's mother in shock, and Dara's father immediately sat up straight.

"Hm, I'm sorry sir, Mom, I know this wedding is very sudden, but I want before my concert in Malaysia in two months, I'm married to Dara so I can be more calm."

"A__what's the concert?" Dara's mother screeched.

"Yes Ma'am, I am a singer" Rei said straightforwardly. After yesterday Dara's two brothers did not know who he was, one hundred percent of Dara's parents did not know.

Alan and Andi looked down, they knew her mother would behave like that. Unlike Dara, he did not bow but knelt in front of his parents.

"Ma, I beg our blessing, I love her so much, Ma. Would you like to see me suffer? What's so ugly about that job anyway? The important thing is that the work is halal, not corruption like the officials, right?"

Salim Protikno took a deep breath, he looked calmer again. But Dara's mother hasn't.

"Do you have a home?" ask Dara's mother.

"I have an apartment in the south Jakarta area. The house is also in the east Jakarta area, but it is not finished, it is still in the finishing stage, as soon as I will finish. You don't worry I won't make Dara's life short, I promise." Rei said then a smile rose on his lips. 'Jeez the girl's mother is so realistic, ' he thought.

Dara saw Rei sharp, 'you were so convincing, look at you smiling all over, my goodness!'

"Alright, I agree," said Dara's mother, but still with a stark face.

Nino silently smiled. 'Rei you're good at taking people's hearts. It was not in vain when I told you to buy an apartment and make a house, now it is asked by your future in-laws, Nino said in her heart.

"I'm sorry because my mother can't attend now because she's not well, in my hometown."

"What person are you really?" ask Andi.

"I'm from Surabaya, Brother."

"Well, when is the wedding scheduled?" ask Dara's father.

"Now being prepared. Anyway before the end of this month, inshaallah is ready. Let my manager explain where the preparations are going."

Nino flinched and looked at Rei confusedly. Rei nodded hinting at Nino to speak up immediately. While Nino does not know what to say, because everything he just took care of yesterday afternoon and there has been no significant development.

I don't know why Dara's mom kissed something weird. He still did not understand because Dara had never once touched on a man, but now he knew he was being proposed and the marriage had been arranged without him knowing a bit.

"Oh, Hm .. This morning WO contacted me he said he was still in the process of searching the building and determining the theme. When it comes to buildings, it is easy to adjust to the number of invitations that will be invited. For the theme, because Rei is from Java, so will wear Javanese custom, wedding dress is also being done," said Nino a little lie about the wedding dress, because yesterday when he called the famous designer, he didn't answer. But Nino was sure, if he knew that the message was Reindra, he would definitely put Rei first. Because they are close friends.

"Hm, but the most important thing is that tomorrow we will hold a press conference. Rei and Dara must be present to inform the media."

Dara's eyes widened. He didn't know the matter at all, Alan didn't tell the press conference.

'Huh press conference? I'm sure I have to work tomorrow. That man really could only decide for himself!'

🌷🌷🌷

After a long talk, Rei and Nino had dinner before returning home. After dinner Rei and Dara had a chance to talk together on the terrace.

"You relieved?" ask Rei

"Why do you do as you please? Why don't you talk to me tomorrow for a press conference? I can't have a press conference tomorrow, I'm sorry."

"Why can't it? I don't want to know, you have a press conference tomorrow with me!"

"can't. I have to work tomorrow."

"Geez, you'll get permission."

"Can't, I've had too many permits. Just so you know because of this fucking pregnancy, I'm getting sick every day."

"What did you say? Fucking pregnancy? God, you're calling my son a goddamn kid. How insolent of you!" exclaimed Rei annoyed.

"Yes, it's true. Because of this child, my future is bleak, bleak! I've never dated in my life, I know now I've been proposed to by a man I don't know, and then I'm getting married and becoming a widow. Geez, can this still be called life? To me this is hell."

Rei looked at Dara with a look of surrender. "Hey, is this easy for me too? It's so heavy! You know how much material losses I have to pay for this matter? I'm sure you'll be shocked to hear how much it turned out. I have to cancel a few contracts this month. And especially after this? There's gonna be a lot of bad gossip about me, you know? my career might be down. Then what's the most important? Nadine. I must be willing to lose him. And Nadine will be hurt too. You know what it's like? It's like being heartbroken twice at once."

"I don't want to know about that. Because it's your business," said Dara while throwing his face.

Rei let out a long sigh. "Yes, you're right. You don't need to know about Nadine. What was I talking about that with you for. Oh yes, this week you have to come with me to Surabaya to get acquainted with my extended family. Nino's bought us a plane ticket."

Dara looked at Rei, 'my goodness again this man behaved as he pleased.'

"You've acted twice without asking me first. I can't go" said Dara ketus.

"Sandara! Are you crazy? We're getting married how can I not introduce my future wife to my family?" Rei shouted a little because he was too upset with Dara's attitude which he thought was very childish.

Dara's eyes were shocked. He did not expect Rei to get angry, and from where did the man know his real name Sandara?

"H__hey why are you yelling at me?" Dara said as she looked inside the house, afraid that anyone would hear her.

"Why don't you want to go?"

"Mmm .. That's because I'm gonna throw up if I travel far, let alone get on a plane. A young pregnant person like me would definitely jetlag."

Rei put his hand in front. Twice also Dara's answer made him unable to get angry. "All right, we'll go to Surabaya later. Later if my mother is healed let me send her here. But for tomorrow's press conference, you should come, no no no! I'll have people pick you up at the office at one o'clock. Youunderstand?"

"Alright .. but forgive me for not being able to go to Surabaya, I really can't get on a plane. We could force our way out, just as long as you're willing to take care of me if I vomit. You want?"

"Ah, forget it." Rei shook his hand.

Dara smiled faintly, she knew Rei would not.

🌷🌷🌷

Rei and Nino were both sitting in the cafe, in the smooking area. They enjoy coffee and smoke cigarettes. Things like this are very rare Rei did after very busy weeks yesterday. Fortunately, this problem made Rei have free time and relax.

"You are admirable Rei" Nino said, exhaling cigarette smoke into the air. Rei smiled proudly.

"You know who the girl's family is? they're really a respectable family."

"Oh, huh?"

"Yes, Dara's father was a professor at my former college. He was a Master Teacher in Strategy Management, he was famous for being super fierce but he was very accomplished. When I found out who I was dealing with, I immediately had no courage to speak up. But you were able to take his heart. You're really cool" Nino said at length. Rei smiled proudly again.

"When am I not cool? Everything I do is always cool, right? Mmm, it's worth your guts to be a squeak. You suck. Oh right, what about the producers, the lebel, and the instant noodle company?"

Nino took a deep breath and threw it away all at once, her face looking very tangled.

"Yes, you don't ask them for shock, even Mr. Robi almost died of a heart attack, because you had to cancel some offair outside the city. But you don't worry about the instant noodle company insistent on you starring in the commercial, so they postpone filming until your business is done. Hhh, you're really lucky."

"But the Producers agree?" rei asked somewhat worriedly.

"Yes, how else have you impregnated people" said Nino flatly.

"Geez, did you tell them why I should get married?" Rei sat up straight while glaring in shock.

"Yes, of course. Except to that instant noodle company. Especially Mr. Robi, he should know dong, why did you get married super impromptu like this?"

Rei nodded slowly. He swore he could not currently meet or receive a call from Mr. Robi.

"Said Mr. Robi, we will see the results later, if the response is good from the community, it means you are really the luckiest artist in the world. Hhh .. I can't wait as soon as tomorrow, after that day the hottest news of the year will explode. You ready?"

Rei was stunned, in his gaze emanating an incredible worry. He himself does not know.

" I don't know."
