It Turns out I'm the Second

Ch.7 Threats of Ganindra

Nanda took a deep breath and exhaled slowly, "Bismilahirrahmanirrahim. All right, ma'am, I got an offer from mom. For the sake of Rieke's mother and sisters, I am willing to marry my mother's child" he said clearly and steadily.

Lavina immediately smiled broadly and immediately stood hugging Nanda's body tightly. Nanda spontaneously stiffened in shock when suddenly her superior hugged her body tightly. They were not that close to doing this heartwarming scene. Even during his time at Cafe Starla, he did not interact much with his boss.

"Thank God, thank you, son. I'm glad to hear your decision. Then please go home and rest." Lavina said with a big smile.

"But Ma'am, I still have to go overtime" Nanda said.

"Come home, don't you have to help with your things and rest because in how many days you will be very busy. Not only to take care of your move, but also to take care of your wedding preparations." Lavina said excitedly.

Nanda's eyes immediately glared, 'Huh, that fast?' nanda murmured in the heart. He was really surprised to hear that.

Actually Nanda is still a bit strange with everything he experienced. Even he still gamang think he will marry someone he does not know and love. Moreover, it seems like Lavina was rushed. But is it another option?

"Oh yeah, tomorrow you don't have to work because tomorrow you're going to come with mom to see the house that your sisters will occupy later." added Lavina again that makes Nanda immediately brushed off her anxiety about her impromptu marriage. For him the most important thing right now was to get a place to live for his younger siblings.

...***...

"Assalamu'alaikum, mother .." exclaimed Nanda half yelled as he entered the house where he had hovered for several years.

Mother Rieke who was arranging the clothes of the orphanage children into a large bag then turned to look at the voice. It was clear that the happy twinkle in Nanda's eyes made Mother Rieke frown because she was curious.

"Wa'alaikum greetings, dear." said Rieke's mother with a smile. Then Mother Rieke welcomed Nanda's outstretched hand to kiss her. "It seems so happy again. What's the happy news, baby?" ask Mother Rieke finally out of curiosity.

"Bun, God willing, we will get a new place to live." he cried happily while embracing the body of Mother Rieke.

"really? You serious? Where and how much does the lease cost? Monthly or annual? " the mother Rieke's frown made Nanda giggle amusedly.

"Bun, can it be one-on-one? Nanda is confused as to which answer used to be." he said who still chuckles. Now he is also helping Rieke's mother to arrange the clothes of her sisters. While his sisters who are already quite large help take other clothes out of the closet and they put it in front of Mother Rieke and Nanda.

"Duh, mostly yes! Yes, answer which one, whatever." he said.

Then streamed the story of his superiors who wanted to lend them a house to live in but minus the marriage deal Lavina offered. He did not want Rieke's mother to think or suddenly refused. If the opportunity is released, then where will they live. Let him take this in return because he has been received with open arms to live there. He thought this deal didn't seem too bad either because Lavina was so good to him. She hopes her future husband is also the same as Lavina, has a firm but gentle nature.

"God, your boss is so kind, son. May he be given abundant health and sustenance" said Mother Rieke sincerely with a wide smile on her lips.

"Aamiin .." Nanda said with a smile.

"Assalamu'alaikum, Ma, Pa." said Gathan as he entered the main house where his parents lived.

"Wa'alaikum salam." said Lavina and Ganindra Tjokroaminoto simultaneously.

Then Gathan threw his body down and sat down beside Lavina. Lavina who saw the tired look on her son's face just smiled.

"It seems lately more and more busy aja mama's child yes until no time at all to go home. There is already a wife, we begin to forget ya Pa." Lavina quipped to her only son.

"Not that, Ma, Gathan is busy. Gathan is having several apartment building projects at the same resort and all of them require that Gathan intervene directly, instead of Gathan forget the same mama. If you don't believe me, just ask Papa, it's Pa!" Gathan solicits a plea from his father, who is still president of his company. But Ganindra just flicked her shoulders indifferently making Gathan sigh long. "Especially Ma, Gathan also participated in the tender for resort development on the island of Bali so Gathan's busyness rose almost twice" said Gathan again .

"Yes yes, whatever you want. Actually mom and dad asked you to come home to discuss something very important" Lavina said, making Gathan frown and be alert.

Not without reason, his mother and father had several times invited to meet like this and ordered him to immediately divorce Freya who for them did not meet the criteria of a dream daughter-in-law. Of course Gathan could not fulfill the request because Gathan had his own reasons that made him unable to do so.

"discuss what? Don't tell me that mom and dad want to ask Gathan to divorce Freya? If yes, sorry ma, pa, then Gathan's answer remains the same, can not even though mama and papa forced Gathan anyway." he said making Lavina and Ganindra sigh tired. Their son was actually a submissive son but for some reason for Freya's affairs, Gathan really couldn't be swayed. Gathan seems blinded by love so willingly whatever Freya's attitude and behavior, Gathan still maintains it. Even Gathan married Freya without the blessing of his parents.

"Who will talk about your beloved wife." Sardonic Lavina makes Gathan breathe a sigh of relief but also curious.

"Then mom and dad want to talk about what?" ask her with a frown.

"Your marriage will be our title for 2 weeks again" Lavina said casually but successfully made Gathan glare in disbelief.

"Will mom and dad celebrate my wedding with Freya?" ask Gathan because in his mind there is only that answer.

"Not." exclaimed Lavina and Ganindra compact make the wrinkles on Gathan's forehead more and more. Even his eyebrows are now linked to each other.

"Didn't you? So ? Please make it clear to me, don't confuse Gathan, ma, pa. Kan Gathan already has a wife, so who are you going to prepare for my marriage with? Don't be weird, ma, pa! Don't add to Gathan's problem!" he cried while breathing tired.

"Mama and papa will hold your wedding with another girl and there is no rejection." asserted Lavina who was embraced by Ganindra as support.

"Gathan's wedding to another girl? Wh who? Please, Ma, Pa, Gathan's life is complicated, don't make it more complicated." he exasperated.

"Who is making things difficult for you? It's not you alone that complicates your life, not mom and dad." Lavina said in a high tone making Gathan's lips instantly mute. "Mama and papa just want to give you a good companion. To be sure she was faster even if not in terms of wealth, but she was a good girl, beautiful, and was our dream daughter-in-law. We've allowed you to marry a girl who's really far from our criteria, so this time you have to comply with our request to marry our chosen girl." Lavina said earnestly.

"But, ma ..."

"Enough Gathan, there's no rejection this time. You must obey all your mother says. If you refuse, get ready to take care of your resignation letter from the company and from now on papa will revoke all the facilities you have. Papa wants to see if your beloved wife still wants to be your companion if you are poor." threatening Ganindra with a sharp look of eyes makes Gathan sip his own saliva.
