I'm Not a Grabber
Chapter 40: Due to the Invitation



The truth is still gray. The thick fog refused to fade. In the rest of his consciousness, Danish tried to reflect on everything. Unknowingly, the man followed his wife's methods. Even if not by talking alone. But just talk in the heart.


"Son, why don't you guys come in? Come on, Papa's waiting in the living room." Call Mama Quinara surprised Danish, as well as Shena who immediately looked back.


Who would have thought, the eyes of a couple met. Danish smiled faintly, but Shena looked at him suspiciously. He knew, the girl must be thinking why stand behind and for what? Isn't that unnatural, but that's it. It's not important with such a small thing.


Shena moved from her place, then walked over to the Danish who was still waiting at the door. I don't know what the man's mind is, he doesn't want to know. Enough with what was plaguing her life.


The two walked together towards the family room. Where Mama Quinara, Papa Anderson and Fatih had sat together. They are faced with heaps of invitations of different shapes, types and names of printing. Almost similar to the place of manufacture directly.


"Son, sit down near Mama. We choose an invitation for you, and also for Fatih's engagement." Quinara patted the sofa next to her, making the daughter-in-law nod her head in unison. "Try to choose which is better. This or this?"


Two invitations of different colors are shown. Hopefully Shena will choose the best because as a mother-in-law must start building a relationship like mother and child. Meanwhile, the one being asked for an opinion. Instead see another simple but elegant invitation on the table.


Black color combined with gold lines and silver writing. So clear, but the color is not striking. Shena reached for her chosen invitation. Then he looked at Mama, "Ma, that's better, but I like this one."


"What do you think, Mas Dan?'' shena asked her husband's opinion, her net turned to look at the silent Danish pensive without a word.


Danish blinked, not expecting when Shena asked for her opinion. Honestly, the expression and emotion of the wife is not easy to guess. It was cold, then suddenly it turned warm. However, when a glance of the eyes accidentally met Netra Fatih who was staring at him. Suddenly, he understood what was happening.


Whatever Shena's story. Fatih stressed that it was all true. The remaining doubt faded away, for a moment his heart throbbed in pain. If the young man he thought of as a younger brother was a jerk. Will my mom and dad be okay?


Since adoption. Fatih got all the family affection, even the facilities were never distinguished. Just for the last birthday. The young man got the gift of a new motorcycle, while Danish who really likes business. Turn gifts into new business shares.


Not wanting to take into account how much money his family spent, but he did not want his parents to be heartbroken because of unrequited love. Instantly the fear seeped into his heart. However, right now, it could only follow the timeline and hope that all would return well.


Invitation from the wife's hand. The invitation that stole Shena's attention. Momentary watching. Beautiful, simple, kalem. A good choice. People say, whatever the choice of a person can reflect personality. Seeing from the invitation, Dan felt his wife a girl who did not like luxury so much.


"Ma, aren't the invitations for our engagement and reception different? I want this invitation used for the reception." Dismissed Danish without a doubt, glancing her eyes in the other direction, but her focus remained on Shena.


"Select whatever you want. Papa doesn't mind, as long as you're happy. Ma, shouldn't you invite Naina to spend the night here? Shena can have friends, and the two will adapt together to their new home" Papa Anderson said, trying to bring her family together.


Not without reason because between his two sons. Danish can certainly choose to live in his own home. A newly built house. In fact, their family home alone could accommodate more than twenty people. Self-sufficient. Such was the answer from the son who did have a large income like himself.


"Pa, Fatih and Naina are unmarried. The best girls are in their parents' homes. And don't want to patronize, but think about it. Again." said Danish without compromising his manners.


Rejection by Danish. Not changing Fatih's intentions, the young man smiled and grabbed Papa Anderson's hand. ''Pa, I agree with Ka Dan. Wait for us after marriage. Naina will definitely move into this house, before that. Isn't there a sister-in-law Shena who can accompany Mama?"


Everyone's eyes were turned aside following Fatih's words. Right, if Shena was already a daughter-in-law and could stay at the Anderson residence. However, it's not that easy. Especially just to be a shortcut to the jerk boy. Danish could feel the anxiety of the wife. The spreading aura explained the girl's emotions, not okay.


"Why not? Mama can go to our house, and Shena will accompany. Not that it's a ban, but my wife's schedule is pretty tight, Pa, Ma." Danish got up from her seat, then moved to sit next to Shena. "Lately, we've been planning a vacation. So, please understand."


Danish statement ends everything. A gripping calm. The old man was just busy paying attention, but Fatih and Danish fought in silence. The pent-up emotions glowed translucently through the glare of the eyes. Shena tried to be calm without aggravating the atmosphere. Although he wanted to hurry away from the family room.


After choosing an invitation for Fatih and Naina's engagement. As well as a reception invitation that will be held in a month. Finally Shena was free and escorted the aunt to go to Danish's room. The girl did not want to stay in one place for long with the young man who had an evil look.


"Non, Auntie's staying, yeah. Non can call aunty anytime use the intercom on the nightstand. Oh yeah, Aunt almost forgot. The row of books belongs to Young Master, please do not change his position." explained Auntie before leaving Shena alone.


Aunt's departure, made Shena breathe more relieved. The king size bed was his goal. Tired of his mind and heart. From one problem to a new problem. For a moment want to throw the body feel the comfort of the world. The gaze of the eyes counted the beautiful painted stars above the room.


"One, two, three, four, five ....,"


Counting small and large stars, until his eyelids began to feel heavy. No longer able to wake up. Shena is asleep entering the dream world. He could not hear the sound of the door opening. Slow footsteps approached the bed that was now controlled by his wife.


"I think it was just shock. My wife is very fast asleep, not even ten minutes. This girl has crossed the bridge of the subconscious. Good, rest is good for the mind." Danish observes Shena's pretty face, but suddenly memories of a few days ago wander.


After all, he hit his own head. "Conscious, Dan. Don't think macem. Shena still hasn't accepted you, wait for her to give herself up to be your wife."
