Love is Different

Chapter 69. Family Discussion

After I finished taking care of the building, I started catering with Mama. Because Adi can't always accompany me and has to work. 

"Today we're going to the caterer where's Ma?" I asked while I was washing dishes. 

"There is a good price and the price is standard.. In the duren palm area.." Answer Mama.

"Judah, I'm going along.." My answer.

My mom and I went to the Catering. After I and Mama discussed and had a food tester. 

"Later Mom and Mba are okay can directly send DP to our account. That's a proposal we've shared to email Mbakya for the total catering price.." Reply Catering that day. 

I also nodded.

"R.. You tell Adi first." Said Mama.

"Yes Ma.. I've forwarded to Adi kok Ma's email.." 

"You've contacted him but?" 

"Udah.."

"Is he answered?" 

"Prophey Maa.. Here he is again his kayak work so bekum bales." 

Shortly Adi replied to my message. 

"Udah okay Ri, the price is not too expensive. Food I trust Riri and Auntie.." Reply Adi.

"Yeah Ri.. Did you say Mama?" Ask Adi.

"Yet Ka.. Later Mama and I will see you again with Andung and Gaek. Malem is like that.."

"Yaudah Ka Adi will tell you also, Mama, it's the price.." 

"Okee dear."

After the catering, the night Mama and Bapak to the house Andung and Gaek again. To be honest I was a little confused, in the beginning Adi said that their custom was not wearing as old times, because I know in Minang Men in lamar women. But this time I was lied to by him and his family, many times Father and Mama always come to his house. It's not supposed to be the family of the man who approached the woman. I am Javanese in culture. This time the family intervened because all this time they just obeyed. 

"Father already told you the cost of all Ri, even we have DP building. This catering should be ours too? At home we've been out a lot yesterday.." He said when he came home from Adi's house.

I fell silent and I felt like everything was getting run down, the Adi family who did not give us the dowry they should have given us on the application. Always consider and always discuss with family. I honestly don't know what else to do. Because on the other hand I've been affectionate with Adi and his family, but his big family like too meddling and even up to the issue of money alone must wait for approval from Omnya. This is not even in Minang. I was really upset that it felt like I wanted to just leave and scream out loud, crying. 

"You're the Ri who talked to Adi.." Sahut Mama's.

"Yes how Ma.. Now gini aja.. I'm the same Adi was never invited to discussions. Always only Andung and Gaek same Mama and Father only discussion. The reason the bride-to-be should not bother this business. But we also have to give advice.." My answer. 

"Try the discussion first with Brother - sister Mama good how. So that Pakde Herdi who talks to Adi later." Mama answered with tears. 

Until it really made my parents cry like it made my heart heavy. Mama and Dad also discussed with Mama's family, honestly at that time I also wanted to cry. Moreover, Pakde Herdi has intervened on this issue to make my family disappointed with the Adi family like this. 

"So you're actually how the hell do you feel? This is married for the long term, Ri.. Worship for a lifetime. Are you sure you're the same Adi?" Many questions that Mr. Herdi directly gave. 

I also could not hold back tears until I finally vented everything that I was not strong if his family did not want to give a penny for the event. It can't be just my side spending money. Even already the agreement will be 50% and 50%. The first reason, they did not have much money for the event in the luxurious building, they had already come out to tens of millions just for the event at home, they had already come out to tens of millions just for the event at home, because before Akad there was a ceremony to pick up the bridegroom from one of my family parties. That's what Adi's family wants. So they continue to decorate the luxury of his house with the atmosphere of Minang. At night midodareni also in my house, not to mention the previous study and watering. While Adi who already has a permanent job and holds an S2 only he has no savings at all to marry me. Until making invitations and souvenirs alone had to borrow Mily at that time which even I did not know if Adi borrowed money with Mily of 1 to 2 million on the grounds for a wedding invitation. Every day is just a discussion without any solution. Every day of discussion, when the time is approaching. The ingredients for the family have also been bought by my mother. But we were amazed to ask his family to give him money. I was very disappointed and could not think clearly at the time. I'm rattled.
