Love the Illiterate Girl

The unwanted engagement of the young master

The unwanted engagement of the young master

Early in the morning, I went with Miss Margaret to the city. I don't really know what we're going to town for. Just told me, wanted to buy our engagement needs. Mr. Cristian is not coming with us.

Thank goodness that Mr. Cristian didn't come along, that he'd become even more awkward with all my gestures. I'm also confused about how I feel about getting engaged, but I don't know how I feel about her. So does his feeling for me.

If only it was possible I could resist the wishes of the great master to me. But with the persuasion of Miss Margaret I can what, on the grounds of the health of her grandparents. Hopefully it can go according to plan. I can only accept this match.

"We're here." Miss Margaret's smile to me.At my age I've never been here.

A very large shopping center in the middle of the city we came to.

"Let's go in, "Nina Margaret took my hand and took me in.

It turned out that in a store we were waiting for. Miss Margaret told me to try a kebaya that she had ordered far away.

"Wahhh, amazing Mala. I didn't expect you to be this beautiful, especially if you're dressed tomorrow. My sister must have fallen in love with you." There's no end to Miss Margaret teasing me.

And after this we just have to take our needs which turned out to have been ordered by Miss Margaret in a different store.

Starting from jewelry, shoes and tools make up tools. Miss Margaret did not miss the slightest of the necessities that were already on her list.

Not felt, time passed quickly. Until we missed our lunch hour.

"Let's eat first." I went to an expensive restaurant.

After the waiter came, Miss Margaret asked, "What do you want?"

I, who was still confused and didn't know how to eat in this restaurant, just looked at Miss Margaret. Especially the menu list that was presented to me. I don't know any of these foods at all. It seems that Miss Margaret knows my confusion.

"Yes, I have the same message as take me like I'm mbak." He told the waiter.

The waiter nodded and took our order.

"You should start getting used to it from now on well, with our habitual habits. Don't hesitate to ask me." Miss Margaret cares so much for me she's still like my sister Ningsih.

"Miss, is it better that this matchmaking be annulled well."

"Kok you said that anyway Mala?"

"It's not that I want to ignore the wishes of the master and the non great mistress, but it feels like this matchmaking really makes me and lord Cristian awkward."

"Mr Cristian is the granddaughter of the sole heir to the lord's company and mistress where she might want to be betrothed to me this lady of the village." I tried to express my heart to Miss Margaret.

Actually I feel bad about Mr. Cristian, it seems he objected to this matchmaking. I was forced to do this in order to return the favor of both master and great mistress to me. Miss Margaret simply smiled in response to all my complaints.

"Dear, my grandparents have been planning this for a long time."

"There's a strong reason, which is so underlying to us to match Cristian to you, which we can't tell you yet." One day you'll know it, not now."

"And we also betrothed you with much consideration."

"Please don't refuse this matchmaking well, my grandfather and grandmother have great hopes in this matchmaking of yours."

*****

Tonight in my room.

I was groomed in such a way by MUA who had been called specifically by Miss Margaret. I don't feel my tears wetting this cheek. There is a sense of tightness in the chest, when doing a forced engagement.

since this morning I've been calling my mom and dad in the village, telling them I'm getting engaged tonight. Unfortunately, both of them were unable to attend, he said.

"It's ready."Ma'am who was makeup me from earlier saw the results in the mirror, and smiled with satisfaction looking at my face that had managed to become no longer me.

"It's so pretty." Mumbled..

Miss Margaret, who just came in, was a little surprised to see my makeup tonight. While closing her mouth, she unceasingly praised me.

Until Inah came here, she was endlessly praising my performance tonight. Bik Inah told us to go out immediately, to the farm yard which was transformed into a party that was so luxurious for us tonight.

I was led by Miss Margaret and led Inah to the temple, and there sat a handsome man, but there was no smile emanating from his face.

When my steps approached where we were going to sit, Lord Cristian did not stop looking at me at all. His eyes are so different tonight. Until Miss Margaret pinched his arm. Shocked in surprise, then turned his eyes. Miss Margaret smiled happily at her sister's behavior.

I just bowed, embarrassed mixed with fear. Invitations from the extended family were also present. It looks foreign to me. The great lord and mistress were seated next to Lord Cristian. Behind him was Miss Margaret and the rest of the family.

While I sat facing them. Nervous mixed with sadness I saw the big master's family was very complete. As for me, the two seats next to me looked empty. Suddenly I was surprised by two figures I knew very well, sitting on my left and right. I can't help haru, the tears that I've been holding back from a long time ago are flowing.

I can't help but miss the two people I love so much in this world. I hugged them tightly. I saw the master and lady smiling, Miss Margaret giving her thumbs up to me. I can only whisper thank you for bringing my father and mother here.

Then the engagement process begins. When the customary elder asked to pin the ring on my finger. The big madam came to me pinning her ring on my ring finger. But Mr. Cristian's reaction was normal. The hatred that was emanating on his face again was very clearly visible.

Even while the guests were at the medicinal dinner, Mr. Cristian left the venue. Choosing to enter the house. No matter the invited guests, just greeting them also does not want him to do.

Ah I don't care about it, as long as my father and mother are here now I'm really happy. And invite them to take the food that is already available to the invited guests.

"Where is Mala's surprise, do you like it?"

miss Margaret came to us with the great master and mistress.

"Thank you, lady, I really like it. I don't think Miss knows what I think is in this heart."

"Thank you to my grandparents, Mala. Because those who took the initiative brought your parents here."

"Thank you, sir, and lady."

"Enough Mala, don't call your master or mistress anymore, but call us grandparents."

"But sir,,"

"Have not thought about my grandson's behavior at this time. There will be a time when he will open his heart to you."

"Grandfather and grandmother ask for help, so that you will be patient in dealing with the behavior of our grandchildren."

"Okay sir, I will follow what the ladies and gentlemen wish, but I cannot promise I can do it."

"My wife and I trust you, Mala,.."

***

The night was getting late, one by one the invitees went home to their respective homes.

"Mala, take your father and mother to the guest room. Let them rest first. Tomorrow you can release your misses on them. Because they'll be here for the next week."

"Let's father, mother..Take it to your room." I took both my parents into their rooms so they could rest."
