Love Vania

Life Shaker

Both father and son were silent for a moment. They're snitch each other. Vania did not dare to ask first to look at her Papa's face which was quite serious.

"how was yesterday's meeting with Oom Satria's son" asked Papa Firman flatly

"do you mean, Brother Devan?"

Papa Firman nodded. There was no longer a smile on his face like the days before while chatting with his daughter

"did Brother Devan not say anything to me yet?" ask Vania

"father does not want to know, you must still accept this matchmaking" said Papa Firman suddenly with high intonation

"but pa...."

"pa doesn't like to be denied. Have you not repeatedly followed your will? when will you comply with your father's request? Mr. Satria's family has been so kind to us. There is not the slightest desire in your heart to please us by accepting all this. If papa has another daughter, papa won't force you to do all this. And this time you've put papa to shame in front of their families. Then how else would you like?" obviously papa Firman excited because it has been so emotional.

Vania was surprised by her papa's treatment. This was the first time his father had spoken with such high intonation, that he even seemed so angry.

Vania's tears dripped down her smooth cheeks. His heart was so sick to hear his father's statement. He could answer nothing but silence and bowed. It is not the time to dispute his request.

Mama Karina who heard the noise from the living room immediately approached them to find out. She was shocked to find her husband looking dull and her crying daughter sitting next to her.

Mama Karina approached her husband and sat down beside him while stroking his back.

"papa don't get rich gini, will be sick again you know.... actually what is it, Pa?" mama Karina asked to calm her husband

"what's wrong if you have the will to determine the lives of your sons and daughters? Papa does all this because he loves you so much, he wants his son to have a decent and happy life by marrying him to the right person. You are a girl, Papa wants someone who can take care of you someday. Unlike your brother who is able to keep himself as a man" said papa Firman while holding his chest that feels tight.

Vania still sobbed and lowered her head. He squeezed his own fingers. His feelings are so fucked up. He was so sorry to have hurt his parents' feelings. But on the other hand, he actually hates Devan even more. I don't know what Devan told his papa to make his papa emotional. Instead of his matchmaking void, Vania is forced to accept an arranged marriage with Devan.

Mama Karina was afraid of her husband's health. She was afraid that her husband would again feel pain in her chest because it was seen from her husband's breathing that began to irregular.

"already pa.. already, hold your emotions. Let's take a break" she asked as she gently pulled her husband's arm to move into the room. He tried to separate the husband and child for a while so that things did not get more chaotic.

"Tell your daughter not to dispute her parents' orders" she said still with high intonation before heading to the room.

Papa Firman followed his wife's advice to rest in the room because he felt his chest was getting painful.

Vania was left alone in the living room. He cried over his fate. It was so painful to hear the anger of his papa that he had never experienced before.

Vania packed back her belongings that were still scattered on the table. He took her into the room.

In Vania's room was still crying. He cursed Devan in his heart. So great was the hatred for the man growing.

Until nightfall, Vania did not come out of her room. Mama Karin who was worried about the condition of her daughter immediately called bi Inah to ask her to deliver food to Vania.

tock..tok....

"non..this is auntie" she called after knocking on Vania's room door.

Vania stood up and walked towards the door to open it.

"this aunt told Mom to bring Non dinner, since Non Vania did not come down. I think non Vania is still sad because of the words of Mr. Auntie's finger is asked to deliver this" he said, pointing a tray containing a plate of food and a glass of chocolate milk to Vania after the door opened.

"thank you, Vania is not hungry" he replied slowly

"Non. If not later can be sick, pity the mother will also be bothered. Want yes non.." force Bi Inah.

"alright bi" he answered while receiving a tray from the hand of bi Inah

"then excuse me Non" said Bi Inah as she left her master's room.

Vania closed the door to her room. He put the tray of food and milk on the nightstand. He has no taste for his dinner. He had not cared about his empty stomach since this afternoon.

Vania was still alone in her room. Raging between guilt has hurt her father and growing resentment towards the man she is betrothed to

Vania can't wait to meet Devan. He is determined tomorrow to look for the existence of the man in his office to ask for clarity. After all who does not know the location of SA Group. Large companies perched in the middle of the city with dozens of subsidiaries scattered throughout the country even abroad.

Vania doesn't care anymore about being embarrassed and unkind as the woman who meets the man in her office. For him Devan was present as a troublemaker of his life. Because Devan his papa scolded him all out. Because Devan had to force himself to follow orders he never wanted.
