Loving Qiana

Part 2 - Marrying Qiana

“Pardon Qia yes, Raka. Aunty know, Qia must have forced you,” shriek Qeiza.

Many times Raka gulped. The man actually felt very tense. He also felt guilty for his entire family. Especially with Qiana.

“Raka who should apologize. Forgive Raka, Tan. Forgive Raka, Uncle,” Raka said as she stared alternately at Qeiza and Ivander.

“But, Uncle and Aunt need not worry. Raka will take care of all this as soon as possible. Raka will quickly free Qia from here. Raka will also take care of our wedding, as soon as.”

“Married?!” ivander and Qeiza said at the same time. Raka nodded her head.

“You really want to marry Qia?” ask Ivander again.

“Iya Uncle. Raka hopes Uncle and Aunt agree.”

“How could you guys get married. You are cousins?! What will people say if you get married?” pekik Qeiza's.

Ivander massaged his temple.

Actually, Ivander felt lucky if a man like Raka would marry Qiana. Raka's a nice guy, polite and smart. He had known Raka ever since the young man was born into the world.

Although Ivander does want to have a daughter-in-law as perfect as Raka, but, he never imagined if Raka would really be his daughter-in-law.

When Evelyn— his first wife— did not want to have children, Raka's presence in the middle of the Bratajaya family made Ivander's days become colorful. Ivander loved Raka so much.

Raka is the son of her younger brother. Although Raka was his nephew, to Ivander Bratajaya, Raka Pratama was his eldest son.

While Qiana, even though the girl is a princess, she loves Qiana as much as her own daughter. She was the one who cared for and raised Qiana ever since the girl was a toddler.

And now, the two children he had considered as biological children wanted to get married. He doesn't know if he should be happy or sad about it.

If this is a drama that's on flying fish television, maybe the title of the drama is 'his brother will marry his son my wife, those children are children whom I consider to be my own children.'

It was hard for Ivander to imagine that Raka would marry Qiana. That relationship will definitely get ridicule among the people. He and Ivona are siblings.

How can people accept if their children become a married couple?

Ivander now rubbed his face rough.

“Raka and Qia are indeed cousins. But, in fact, we have no blood relation. This is not a marriage. It should be okay if we get married,” denied Raka.

Ivander and Qeiza both exhaled heavily. The young man before them was indeed a genius, but Raka was still a naive youngster.

“If you have no blood relation, your relationship is still brother and sister. The public will definitely judge the marriage badly, Raka,” Ivander explained.

“We don't have to listen to their words, Uncle. They have nothing in our lives!”

“You don't know how cruel the people out there are, Ka. They will never care about the real facts. They just talk and act what they think is right. Aunty knows very well that because Auntie herself experienced it,” said Qeiza.

It is still recorded clearly in his mind, the incident 17 years ago, when he was doused in water and treated harshly because of allegations as an actor. People immediately hated him, never once did they confirm to him, was it true or not?

“But Raka and Qia have done something wrong, Tan. Raka can't take responsibility for granted.”

Once again Ivander and Qeiza exhaled heavily. Although they were against Raka's plan to marry Qiana, but, what their niece said, was true. Qiana had been stained. That girl is no longer a girl, now. They were afraid that, one day, there would be no good men willing to marry Qiana.

Qeiza stared fixedly at the two young man's netra. The man who proposed to his son. A man who promises to give happiness to his son.

A faint smile was seen on Qeiza's face. The woman was sure, not a single man could make Qiana happy more than Raka. There was no man in this world, who knew Qiana better than Raka.

“You arrange the wedding as soon as possible,” said Qeiza.

Raka immediately smiled sumringah. The man's face looked brighter than the light of the sun. Finally he got permission from the birth mother of Qiana— the girl he had always loved so much.

Raka nodded her head steadily.

“Raka will take care of it soon, Tan.”

“promise one thing, Ka,” Overtime Qeiza. Raka also stared fixedly at the woman who would soon become her in-laws. “Never let Qia be sad. Stay the Raka that is always there for Qia.”

Back Raka nodded her head steadily. “Raka promise, Tan. Raka promised with Raka's own life. Raka will never make Qia sad, Raka will always be there for Qia.”

“Lawyer has taken care of everything. You'll be out of here in a minute. For the next time, Uncle leave everything to you. Do not let this news spread. You know what you have to do, right?”

“Iya Uncle, Raka understands. Raka had anticipated everything from the beginning,” said the man.

Ivander's forehead is wrinkled.

“Anticipating since the beginning?” ask Ivander.

Raka's eyes widened. The man seemed surprised by what he said to himself.

“Ma-Raka means, since the raid happened, before we were taken to the police station, Raka has contacted Raka's confidants to take care of everything so that this news is not sniffed by the media,” explained Raka.

Ivander only uttered the letter O while nodding his head. Although feeling a little suspicious of Raka's words and facial expressions, Ivander tried to brush her off.

“We're all waiting for you at home. Maybe, we will all talk about your marriage,” Ivander said before embracing his wife and walking out of the room.

Raka clenched her fists after Ivander and Qeiza were no longer there. “Yes! I can finally marry Qia,” he said. Raka also pulled out her phone. The man was seen contacting someone.

“Do everything as I command. I do not tolerate the slightest mistake. Make sure everything is perfect,” Raka said.

Raka breathed a sigh of relief. The plan that he had been putting together for almost a month was soon going to go perfectly.

At first, Raka thought it would be difficult to ask for the blessing of Qeiza and Ivander. In fact, he easily got that blessing.

Now, he only needed to prepare a luxurious wedding party like Qiana's dream. The man had even booked a plane ticket and a hotel for himself to spend his honeymoon with Qiana.

The man had warned his men to work properly. He will not tolerate the slightest mistake. Her marriage and Qiana should go perfectly. One more month, Qiana should be his wife. Even Raka had already prepared their wedding date.

Right on Qiana's 23rd birthday, the girl will be hers.

Everything was perfectly designed by Raka.

However, everything he had planned, went as he had hoped. Qiana refused to let the marriage happen.

“Until any time, Qia will not want to marry Mas Raka! Qia did not feel like doing anything with Mas Raka. Qia has a man that Qia loves. Qia will only marry him!”
