Her Brother Adalah Di Marahi Her Brother

Chapter 4

Romi took Ayu for a walk in his car. They haven't known each other all this time. While customary in the Ayu family, marriage mostly occurs due to matchmaking.

Only a small percentage of women can enjoy the freedom to choose their own candidates.

Even though they already had lovers, if both parents did not agree, then the girls were persuaded to agree to the choice of their parents.

So too with Ayu. He must follow that tradition. And start to get to know the candidate who has been selected for him.

"You're beautiful like your name, what do you think of this matchmaking. Did you accept it?" romi asked looking firmly at Ayu's face.

Romi is a much different type of man to Aditya. He is hardworking and not as good as his brother. However, one weakness. He will be very possessive of anything that belongs to him.

"I can't refuse it" Ayu said.

"If you want to refuse, you can do it. That's your right" Romi said again.

"What about you? Why don't you just reject it?" ask Ayu to Romi.

"Why should I refuse? They are looking for a very special soul mate for me. I've heard about you so often from papa. And I gladly accepted this match," said Romi.

"Do you have a boyfriend?" romi asked with a smile.

Inwardly hoping for no answer from Ayu.

"No," said Ayu slowly.

Thank goodness if so, inner Romi.

"Now, I just have to make you comfortable with me. All I have to do first is make you happy with me, don't I?"

"Ehm, since you haven't identified each other, it would definitely be awkward," Ayu replied somewhat embarrassedly.

"What's your favorite food?" ask Romi who tried to approach Ayu before officially becoming husband and wife.

"I like all meat. And I rarely eat vegetables,"

"OKAY. I've remembered it. You like all processed meat so, don't you? And you don't like to eat vegetables" said Romi.

"That's because...."

"No problem. I want you to be open so I'll make you happy easily. Happy wife is the responsibility of a husband. And how can I make you happy if I don't even know what you like and what you don't like" Romi said.

"And you? What's your favorite food?" ask Ayu back. She starts to get excited by Romi's attitude of asking a few small things about her. Meaning she was a person who cared about her partner, that was what Romi thought.

"I'm the opposite of you. I love all processed vegetables and I rarely eat meat,"

"What's? So we're different?" said Ayu aghast in shock and immediately spoke with high intonation.

"Why are you so worried? Problems differences in the habits of the couple, can be harmonized. There is no need to get that hot" Romi said.

How will I cook and serve food if our tastes are not the same? Oh this is a big deal, Ayu murmured.

"This is no big deal" Romi said wisely.

"You don't have to worry. If what we like is different. Then we do not need to force what we like to be liked also by our partner. We eat what we like even though we are different. It doesn't need to be all the same. The fact of marriage is that it balances differences, not turns them the same, okay?" romi looks very mature.

Ayu is further fascinated by Romi's way of thinking which amazes her. Rarely does a man understand that.

"I'm happy with the way you behave. I rarely know a broad-minded person like you," Ayu said.

"You're complimenting me? You know, men are happy if the woman understands herself and follows her words. That's because in the psyche of men the leadership instinct is so dominating the way they think" Romi said.

"Ehm, what if I'm not that kind of submissive woman? I don't like being restrained" said Ayu, who is used to living with her friends.

"Maybe you're wrong in deciphering my words. I know women always want to be given freedom. But, after marriage, some of that freedom will definitely change" Romi explained.

Romi is happy if Ayu wants to hear what he says and how his perspective in understanding a marriage.

"Yes, I still want to make money and run my business after marriage. I don't want to just be a housewife who only asks for money from her husband. I have a different point of view if it's in that case,"

"Say, I want to listen" Romi said as he looked at the clock.

"This is my friend's experience. She became inferior and was sometimes humiliated by her husband because he usually only asked for money. When her husband's income was in trouble, she blamed his wife for not helping him make money" Ayu told Romi.

"Giving a living is the responsibility of a husband. The duty of the wife is only to serve her husband, but if there is a husband who demeans his wife just because she decides to be a full housewife. Then the husband must not be of the noble class. I myself often see men behaving like that" said Romi, who saw some of the questions behaving in this manner.

"Then, me, can I still work, or do you want me to be a housewife after marriage?" ask Ayu curiously.

"You can work. But know Ayu, after marriage your responsibilities are huge. You have to take care of the house, your husband and your children later, are you not tired, if you have to work too? Because children and husbands are a priority after you become a wife" Romi explained.

"So, does that mean you're banning me from working after we get married?"

"You can still work, as long as you can divide your time and not neglect your main obligations," Romi said and then looked at the clock again.

"We're going home now?" ask Romi to Ayu.

"It looks like our introduction was pretty sweet today. I like you to talk a lot and want to know a lot. It is very important to start a relationship. If you just shut up and don't ask. Then will not know, how your partner's personality," said Romi while turning on the car.

"That's because I want to build a happy family. It's every woman's dream, right? Part of his life will be spent on his family. And for me, it's really important to learn about how that relationship can be beautiful and lasting,"

"Yes, we'll both learn. All of that requires knowledge and we can learn from some of the experiences of others. Why can a relationship last and why some people even marry divorced and still do not find the right person, despite changing partners repeatedly, that's what you mean?" ask Romi while walking home to deliver Ayu.

"I'd love to get married for a lifetime" Ayu said.

Romi just smiled and didn't say anything more. They've reached Ayu's house.
