Marrying My Stepbrother

Not Agree to Get Married

"Aditya, let's go home, Daddy and Mami must be waiting for us at home." Kania pulls Aditya's arm to get up from the sofa.

"Going home? But--"

"Mother, Papa, Kania go home first." Kania immediately cut off Aditya's words while tugging at his little lover's arm.

"Wait for Baby, I still need to convince them" Aditya refused.

"But we don't have a lot of time, did you forget that we had to go with Dad and Mami to Dad's business partner's show?" Kania pulled back Aditya's arm.

"I didn't forget the but-"

"Yaudah, I'm looking for an online motorcycle!" Kania takes off Aditya's rough arm and accidentally picks up his phone and pretends to order an online motorcycle taxi while stepping out of the living room.

Aditya starts to panic, he does not like Kania using online motorcycle taxi services because what? Of course because of his possessive soul. No matter if the brother online ojek is old or have children for Aditya they are still a man and Aditya does not like his woman along with other men.

Aditya immediately got up from the sofa, before going after Kania he did not forget to say goodbye politely to Kalina and Thomas. He does not want the future mother and father-in-law think their future daughter-in-law is not polite because they just leave, understandably the mission to get blessing from them, especially the future mother-in-law has not been able to say successful.

Kevin, who was just as surprised as Kalina, began to protest Thomas.

"Daddy agrees the guy married Kania's sister? Why Dad?! She's the same age as me!"

"Because Daddy likes it," Thomas replied casually.

"But Daddy he-"

Kalina suddenly stood up and left Thomas and her two children.

Kalina climbed the stairs leading to the top floor and entered her room.

"Did Hendra know about Kania's girlfriend?"

Kalina immediately picked up her phone and contacted Hendra's contact.

...****************...

Hendra who was alone with Gem heard his cell phone ringing. He also grabbed his cellphone and saw the name of the contact listed on the mobile phone screen.

A kalina?

Hendra did not immediately answer a phone call from his ex-wife. He was confused why his ex-wife called? Because all this time his ex-wife never contacted him just to establish friendship.

Did something happen to Kania?

"Who's the phone?" tanya Permata slightly glanced at Hendra's mobile phone screen.

"Kalina, Kania's mother."

Hendra immediately shifted the green icon to receive a phone call from Kalina.

...----------------...

...[via phone] ...

Hendra: Hello

Kalina: Hello Hendra^^^

^^^Kalina: Did you know Kania has a boyfriend?^^^

Hendra: Yes I know

^^^Kalina: You also know that Kania's boyfriend is still in High School!^^^

...(.(.Hendra smile)...

Hendra: So you have met Aditya

Hendra: What do you think?

^^Kalina: I think?^^^

^^^Kalina: Don't joke Hendra!^^^

^^^Kalina: The age of Kania's boyfriend is even the same as Kevin's!^^^

Hendra: Then?

^^^Kalina: It seems that you have no problem with their relationship^^^

Hendra: You're right, I don't matter

Hendra: Because even though Aditya is younger than Kania, he is a good man

^^^Kalina: Okay? You're wrong Hendra!^^^

Kalina: She's crazy!^^^

Hendra: Crazy?

Hendra: Why do you think he's crazy?

Kalina: You know what she said?^^^

Kalina: She said she wanted to marry Kania after she graduated school!^^^

Kalina: What is she thinking?!^^^

Hendra: What? Be married?

Caroline: Hahaha

Kalina: Why are you laughing at Hendra?!^^^

^^^Kalina: This is serious! I'm not kidding!^^^

Hendra: I'm not laughing at you

Hendra: How are you going?

Hendra: What did you say to Aditya?

^^^Kalina: I haven't been able to say anything because I'm still surprised^^

^^^Kalina: But I am still not sure if the child can become the head of the family^^^

^^^Kalina: Usually children his age are still unstable especially about feelings^^^

^^^Kalina: Now his feelings are passionate about Kania but after another year or two his feelings could change^^^

^^^Kalina: If they are still dating it doesn't matter, they can break up^^

^^^Kalina: But what if they are married later?^^^

Hendra: Take it easy, none of that will happen

^^^Kalina: Why are you so sure?^^^

^^^Kalina: Better to prevent than regret^^^

Hendra: Because I know who Aditya is

Hendra: I can see how much he feels about Kania

^^^Kalina: Have you investigated the background of the child?^^^

Hendra: For what?

Jenny: I see him every day

Kalina: Every day? Whatchu mean?^^^

Hendra: Didn't Aditya or Kania tell you that he was Gem's son?

^^^Kalina: The son of Permata?^^^

Kalina: The jewel is not your wife?^^^

Hendra: Right

^^^Kalina: Means the child... ^^^

...(.(.Kalina's eyes are perfectly rounded)...

Kalina: She's Kania's half-sister!!^^^

...(.(.It was fortunate that Kalina's heart was healthy so she didn't have an impromptu heart attack hearing new facts about Aditya)...

^^^Kalina: How can Kania date her step-sister?!^^^

Hendra: Why can't it?

Hendra: Aditya has no blood relation with Kania so there is nothing wrong with their relationship

^^^Kalina: But...^^^

Hendra: You don't have to worry

Hendra: Although Aditya is young but he is reliable

Hendra: There is no way we are forcing them to separate

Hendra: Unless you have the heart to see Kania hurt

Kalina: Huuh.. I just don't want Kania's marriage to fail like her mother's...^^^

...(.(.For a while Hendra and Kalina were silent. They remember the times they are still husband and wife, the slightest thing can trigger a debate because of their respective egos)...

...(.(.Shortly after, Kalina's room door opened. He saw Thomas walking over to him)...

^^^Kalina: Try persuading the child that he reconsider his decision^^^

Hendra: Okay

...(.(.Kalina disconnected the phone call)...

...----------------...

The jewel that had only heard Hendra's words became more curious about what her husband was talking about with his ex-wife even mentioned Aditya's name.

"What the hell is Mas talking about? Koq was Mas until called Aditya?"

"You must be surprised to know what Aditya did at Kania's mother's house earlier."

"What is Aditya doing Mas?"

"Aditya applied for Kania, she said she wanted to marry Kania after graduating from school."

Turns out Hendra was wrong, Permata was not surprised but VERY SURPRISED. He even stood up from the sofa with perfectly round eyes and a gaping mouth.

"What?! Married married?!" pekik Gems.

...****************...

As soon as she got home, Kania got off the bike and just left Aditya.

Aditya chases after Kania and holds the woman's arm before entering the house.

"I should be angry! I told you to wait, but you left me!"

"You said you wanted to know Mom yourself but said you wanted to get married!"

"Why? You don't want to marry me?"

Kania swallowed her saliva, her heart skipped a beat and her cheeks felt hot. Currently he feels nervousness from the female character in the novel when the male character invites the woman to get married.

Slowly Aditya approached without removing his hazelnut bead from Kania.

Why do I feel like his face is so much better looking?!

Although Kania has often seen the face of Aditya who is handsome but when Aditya put on a serious expression it turns out to make Aditya's good looks increase.

Kania's heart was beating more and more unsteadily when the face was slowly approaching even so nervous Kania forgot to breathe.

"I assume the answer is yes, you don't want to marry me."

Kania's consciousness that had disappeared a split second earlier came back when he saw that face turned sad.

"It's not that, it's not a matter of getting married or not but-"

"But? But what?" The impatient Aditya immediately asked for an explanation from Kania.

"I'm afraid..," said Kania.

"Fearful? Scared why?" One eyebrow Aditya raised.

"I don't agree we're married!"

Kania immediately turned around and rushed inside the house.

"Wait on! Explain first why are you afraid to marry me?! Pertiwi Kania!"
