"Dimas, finish your meal to papa's study. Someone wants to talk to you" said Mr. Nugra on the sidelines of his dinner. A voice that sounds relaxed but full of emphasis must.
"Why talk about what?" ask Dimas curiously.
"Later you will know for yourself" said his father as he ended his meal. After gulping down his drinking water, Nugra got out of his chair and went to the room.
Meanwhile Dimas who was still confused by the intention of his father looked at the mother trying to find an answer from the curiosity of the attitude of his father. But Devita's mother only shakes her shoulders hinting that she also does not know what her husband will talk about.
Dimas put down his spoon which still left a little food and rushed to his papa's study. Dimas' appetite had vanished with curiosity about the papa's words that were full of seriousness.
Dimas knows the character of his father. My dad will discuss something important. Because usually, if there is something serious, his papa always talks about something in his study. The goal is to be more privacy and let not many people who are not interested in participating in the problems that will be discussed.
Dimas entered his papa's study after knocking on the door earlier. Pak Nugra's workspace is quite spacious. There is a book cabinet, a set of wooden work tables with thick and shiny furnishings and there is a long relaxing sofa that is very comfortable to sit on.
"Here Boy, sit down" said Mr. Nugra told his son to sit on the same sofa he was sitting on.
"What's so serious about papa talking?" said Dimas who can guess the meaning of the papa.
Mr. Nugra thinned his lips and smiled. It seems Dimas has already understood his character. The father realized that his son already knew about an important thing that he would talk about. Mr. Nugra looked at Dimas again, still with a proud smile. His son is now a teenager and soon to be a grown man. The only boy he will make the successor of the company and the successor of the descendants of Nugra Hadi Sasmita.
"Where is your school?" mr Nugra opened the talks.
"Alright pap"
"Your passport and visa are ready. Everything's been sorted out. You'll be the final exam soon. I hope you've prepared your mentality from now on"
Dimas only thinned his lips while nodding slowly.
"Oia, Papa heard from mom, you already have a boyfriend. Is that true?" mr. Nugra's eyes looked at Dimas's face very closely. Dimas' face immediately turned red because he was surprised by the question of the father. Especially the info from her mom. While Dimas never told anything about a girlfriend to his mother.
"From mama? Dimas never said anything to mama about the boyfriend".Dimas replied while scrunching his forehead trying to dodge and still hiding Erina.
"It's not important your mother knows who that info is from. Papa just wants you to answer honestly from papa's question".
Dimas' position is currently cornered. He should be honest at this time. His heart said that he should be honest about Erina now. Freely he also covered that gradually his papa will know by itself. It's not comfortable if you find out in your own way about Erina. If papa turns out to be not suitable, Erina can be hurt inwardly later.
Dimas took a breath and exhaled slowly. Dimas tried to calmly answer his papa's question.
"Honestly yes pap. Dimas has a girlfriend now. Dimas likes Dimas's underclassman. Name's Erina. She's a pretty simple girl".
"So yes, " said Mr. Nugra while the mangosteen.
"Decide him" he continued later.
Dimas' eyes immediately stared at his papa with a shocked and angry look.
"Papa wants you to focus more on your exams"
"If it's about that, papa doesn't have to worry too much. Dimas will make sure that Dimas will graduate with good grades"
"Dimas, after graduation you will continue studying abroad. Do you think about the feelings of the girlfriend you live with? Do you think long distance relationships are easy? It's not as beautiful as you think boy"
"We trust each other"
Mr. Nugra chuckled at the answer from his son.
"Consider each other? Are you sure of his loyalty later on? Do you know what your boyfriend will do when you're not by his side? Are you sure there isn't even one guy who won't come near your boyfriend?"
"Enough Paa.... " Shouted Dimas not received. Dimas Peel was hot as his papa spoke as if to demean Erina.
"Dimas, you are a man. You have to be realistic and critical. Do not easily believe in something that is not clear. Your job is still a lot. Papa wants you to successfully complete your studies. You're the only one who can handle it. You will be the successor of the company. Papa wants you to succeed. About couples? You do not need to worry too much, if you become a great man and have everything you can freely choose any woman you like. And I assure you, there will be no woman who will reject you"
"Erina is different. It's not like you think" Dimas tried to defend.
"All women are the same. Want to have an established and successful partner. Do you think your life is just enough to be full of love? Wake up boy's... Gini is not the first love. Love will come when you are happy. And you, papa's great male candidate, you have to achieve that success. Copy that!! " pak Nugra's words sound very firm and scary.
Dimas clenched his hands and gritted his teeth. His father's words struck his heart. What his father said is true. But to break off his relationship with Erina, that was a very difficult one for him. Maybe Dimas had to prune out the growing flowers of romance in their hearts. Dimas could imagine how painful Erina's heart would be if he dared to decide.
"Papa wants you to cleanse yourself of things that can later become obstacles yourself. No girlfriend no galau. Papa doesn't want your mind to branch out with your boyfriend and make your study messy"
"Dimas can't kill Erina. Dimas already loved him. We can live a long distance relationship. Dimas was sure Erina wouldn't mind either"
"If you can't kill him, let papa do it". said Mr. Nugra casually.
Dimas rounded his eyes and looked at his papa in anger.
"Papa don't be sassy. It's Dimas's personal business. Papa has no right to mix it up!!!"
"Then you will make a decision soon. Do you want to do it or do you want papa to take action?"
"Papa outrageous. Papa once said that I have the right to make my own choices other than college. And this is my choice Pa... Dimas has chosen the woman who will be made my partner later." Sir did not budge in the slightest with a bluff from Dimas. Her face remained relaxed and elegant. There was not even a face of emotion there. Mr. Nugra remains calm with his distinctive sitting style.
"You're right, but it happens later. When you have completed your task. Papa promised, papa won't interfere in your romance business. But for now, no excuse boy. You think about it well. Papa asked very, please do not disappoint papa and mama. You are our only hope. Mom and Dad just want to see you succeed. If you are destined to be a fool, papa is sure you will remain united later."
Papa's words really touched Dimas' heart and soul. He really did not think that his father was very serious about his future. His father said no one was joking. His firm and full tone with a necessity made Dimas' soul dazed. It was a very hard decision that he had to make. It was like a nightmare during the day that made his head ache instantly.
