Grandpa's Choice Man

Grandpa's First and Last Request

Pak Adi can catch the anxiety and dislike on Tiara's face. He could do little to persuade or defend his daughter because Tiara had the right to make her choice. He only needs to support if it is good and reprimand if it is less useful. However, fighting Mr. Tirta in this health condition is also not a good way to defend yourself. Instead of getting a solution instead fear will aggravate the condition of his father.

"If it's Adi, it's up to Tiara, Dad. Whatever will be done is Tiara. Adi can only support whatever the decision is. How, Ra?" firmly Mr. Adi.

"Dad, Melati's not ready yet. Melati still wants to focus on college. Many ideals that have not been able to reach Melati. Give Melati time to consider everything. After all, how could Tiara marry a man that Tiara did not know. Please, give Tiara time to consider everything" Tiara assured her father and grandfather.

"I understand a little how you feel, son. It's not easy to decide this. Perhaps, it is better to give Tiara and Rama time to get to know each other first. After that, let them freely decide to stop or continue," suggested Bu Lia carefully so that no one would be offended by her remark.

"Rubber. I also agree with the proposal of Bu Lia. However, I hope big that this matchmaking continues because it is already a will from the late Papa Rama and Rama also has 28 years so it is ideal to get married," said Bu Ina very confident.

"Tante, sorry to interrupt. I am still 20 years old. College is only semester four. In addition, I also do not know much and have not been able to do much about household affairs. I'm afraid I can't maximally take on the role of wife and student" sela Tiara tried to convince slowly.

"Tiara, Auntie does not force you to be able to everything that matters you want to marry Rama, of course, it is more relieved because it has carried out the mandate of the late Papa Rama. I won't sue you for this, let alone grandchildren's matter. I even support that you focus on the first lecture while flowing to get acquainted with Rama," said Bu Ina with a soft voice.

If this is the case, Tiara can no longer dwell. He was running out of excuses to avoid that ridiculous match. Tiara bowed listlessly in response to the conversation about matchmaking which to her was terrifying.

"Tiara, please yes," asked Mr. Tirta in a weak voice.

"But, Kek.." said Tiara was cut off because suddenly Pak Tirta fainted.

Mr. Tirta was unconscious and panicked the people in his room. His face was so pale that his entire body was cold. Pak Adi tried to listen to the heartbeat and check the breathing of Pak Tirta. He was a little relieved that there was still a sign of life there.

Pak Adi also patted his father's cheek while telling Tiara to contact Doctor Aaron to immediately go home to check the condition of Mr. Tirta. Tiara immediately went to the front room to make the atmosphere quieter, while Bu Lia began to massage her thumbs and feet.

"Wouldn't we just take her to the hospital, Adi boy?" ask Miss Ina worried.

"Later on, Mom. Waiting for Doctor Aaron because to be taken to the hospital with these tools also need a doctor and accompanying medical personnel. After all, Dad had been told to spend the night in the hospital," replied Mr. Adi trying to calm his panic.

"Persis with the late Papa Rama. She is easy if asked to check but for better hospitalization outpatient at home only," said Bu Ina remembered her husband.

In the front room, Tiara contacts Doctor Aaron and informs him that his grandfather has passed out again. Doctor Aaron who was currently serving in the hospital immediately asked for permission briefly to go check the condition of Mr. Tirta. Later, Tiara immediately contacted her family, including Riza and Aksa.

After that, Tiara sat down violently on the living room sofa. Anxiety could no longer be hidden as her feelings grew increasingly chaotic. Tiara was deeply guilty of Pak Tirta's suddenly deteriorating condition due to his rejection of a long-planned matchmaking. Accepting it also seemed too impossible because he felt too young to live it.

...****************...

The arrival of Doctor Aaron draws Tiara from his reverie. Tiara escorted Doctor Aaron to the front of Pak Tirta's room. After that, he returned to lay down on the living room sofa. Tiara closed her eyes and scowled her slightly dizzy head as if it was about to explode from being too crowded by the various thoughts that came together.

For a moment, Tiara dissolved in her mind and did not realize the presence of Rama beside her. He was still closed while breathing to calm his mind.

"Come in the room. Pak Tirta is looking for you," said Rama, surprising Tiara.

Tiara was startled by Rama who was already standing staring beside her without any expression and flat voice. In fact, Rama spoke to him without staring at him at all. The way to talk was short and very necessary, no pleasantries or excuses.

Unintentionally, Tiara even too long dissolved in her mind with a fixed look at Rama. Tiara was still astonished by that one human.

Witnessing Rama's unfriendly expression, Tiara hurriedly got up and walked towards the room. Tiara was still confused by Rama's attitude that could turn into such a thing in such a short time. It was enough to make her romantic feather shudder

Arriving in the room, Doctor Aaron has finished examining Mr. Tirta and is on leave to continue his duties at the hospital. Tiara also slammed into the arms of Mr. Tirta who had been rumored but was still weakly rolled on the bed. Then, he sat down next to Mr. Tirta who smiled faintly at him. He looked at the face of the grandfather who was increasingly haggard and leery. The eyes of Pak Tirta looked at him expectantly making the Tiara defensive fortress begin to collapse. Slowly, his heart was breaking. After all, Mr. Tirta was indeed so unifying because he was his only granddaughter. Although Pak Tirta also did not distinguish him with Aksa or Riza who is also his grandson but because Tiara was a woman so his protection was more to him.

However, imagining marriage alone feels very afraid if the space becomes limited. Not to mention that she had to divide her time between college and serving her husband, of course, it could take up her time to find a gap to hang out with her best friend. Moreover, the thought of marriage was still too gray for him.

On the other hand, Tiara also wanted to make Tirta Pak happy. During this time, Mr. Tirta always obeyed every request and never asked him anything. You could say, this is the first request for Mr. Tirta to him so it is very heavy to refuse but accept was equally heavy.

Relieving the anxiety in the Tiara's countenance also made the heart of the Tirta Pak knock. He realized that Tiara had the right to continue living the path he chose. Pity and guilt began to arise because it had forced his grandson to sacrifice with his happiness alone.

"Tiara, it's just Grandpa's last wish and wish for you. If it is too heavy, you can refuse it. Grandpa is okay, though,. Grandpa no longer wants to lose loved ones because of Grandpa's selfishness," said Mr. Tirta sincerely with teary eyes.

"Grandfather don't say that. Grandfather can still ask Tiara anything," Tiara said worriedly.

Tiara directly rubbed the hands of Pak Tirta who felt cold and trembling to withstand his inner turmoil. There was a look of sadness and disappointment in my eyes. Mr. Tirta is certainly reflecting on his past that drained tears. Tiara understood very well the life path that passed by Pak Tirta was very heavy because he had to raise 2 children alone. Grandma went out of nowhere with the man of her choice so she had to perform two roles at once. Tiara held back tears every time she heard the story of Pak Tirta.

This time, Tiara also lowered her ego even though her mind was struck by extraordinary turmoil. He began to consider his decision. If it is not Pak Tirta who asks of course he will immediately reject outright. He knew Mr. Tirta would not choose a random man for him but again he wondered why Rama should. He began to wonder if his grandfather knew how cold and indifferent Rama was or if Rama was good at theatrics.

"Abang Rama, do you agree with this matchmaking?" tiara asked courageously to ask Rama.

Everyone in the room gasped at Tiara's question, except for Rama, who was still holding on with his flat face. Secretly, Bu Ina and Mr. Tirta smiled at a glance. Another case with Tiara's parents, they are afraid Tiara did this just because of pity to his grandfather not because he has a steady heart.

"agree. This is Papa's mandate and I will carry out as well as possible" replied Rama full of confidence.

Tiara's gaze turned to Pak Adi and Bu Lia who looked hopefully anxious towards her daughter's inner self.

"Dad. Mommy. If Tiara accepts this match, will you approve of it?" tanya Tiara asked for a dispute.

Bu Lia immediately sat in front of Tiara and grabbed Tiara's face. He stared fixedly at the eyes of Tiara who could not lie to him. He saw a heavy burden there but was so sincere a word came out of Tiara's lips. He knew how much he loved his grandfather who always spoiled him.

"Tiara could reconsider. No need to rush to make a decision. There's still plenty of time to think about it all" said Bu Lia, testing Tiara's heart.

"No, Mother. Tiara had thought of everything. Tiara just followed her heart. Tiara accepted this match," said Tiara with a heavy heart.

Between worry and happiness, the person in Pak Tirta's room just heaved a sigh of relief without being able to say anything. Tiara tried to organize her heart. Of course it was very heavy for him but out of nowhere the encouragement from which made him willingly accept it.

"Can you get married the day after tomorrow? It seems like two days is enough to take care of the files. Grandpa wishes that what matters is legitimate first. That way, Grandpa could be calmer. Relax, you're married. Calm also left Tiara in Jakarta because there was someone guarding him," Pinta Pak Tirta was hopeful.

Tiara was stunned to hear the request of Mr. Tirta who was far beyond his expectations, even unthinkable at all his marriage would be that fast. Tiara's heart was really pounding fast. Tiara was still shocked and speechless. However, he chose to accept because in the end also the purpose of this matchmaking is certainly marriage. Plus Rama also nodded, there was no longer any reason for him to refuse.
