Marrying the Doctor's Widow

Part 23 (Application )

That afternoon week. Jo and her mother step foot into a cafe where they have made a pact with the man who was betrothed by Jovanka's parents.

They headed straight for the table that Alexy had ordered in advance. They waited while ordering drinks at the cafe. There is a sense of anxiety in Jovanka. Not worried about the figure that will be betrothed to him. However, Jo is scared when Rey suddenly appears at the cafe. Rey works at the cafe.

Ting! The cafe door opens.

“Siang Aunt, Naura ..” Alexy says hello.

“Om Alex?” Jo's eyes widened when he saw the figure of the doctor in question was Alexy.

Alexy smile.

“You already know each other?” ask Meli who is none other than the mother of Jovanka. Meli's eyes glanced alternately at Jo and Alexy's doctor.

Jo stunned gulped. Didn't expect the man she was betrothed to was Alexy's doctor. The one he had only known a few days ago was through Emillia, his aunt.

“Iya, tan. Just a few days ago we met here,” said Alexy.

“Oh ... Let's sit, Son.” Meli told me to sit down.

Alexy sat right in front of Meli and next to Jovanka. They talked like the future-in-law interrogating his daughter-in-law.

Alexy was not at all awkward when asked about his readiness to marry his beautiful daughter Naura Jovanka.

“I am ready to apply, even to propose aunty princess anytime.” Alexy said.

“But, Ma ...” Jo's speech was cut when Meli asked Alexy again.

“Tok engaged first, son Alex. For fastener,” said Meli.

“Good. When can Alex propose to aunty's daughter?”

“Secapnya. Our family meeting only,” Meli replied.

.

Jo who had just listened to their chat became upset when he was not allowed to make a decision. In fact, the marriage he will live alone with Alexy. But, let's not be heard. The question cannot be asked either. The deal happened between Meli and Alexy alone.

“Oh ... Yes, sorry, Tan. Last time the clinic was crowded so I had to wait for the guard doctor who was on duty there.” Alexy explained.

“Yes, it's okay, Nak.”

***

On the other hand, there is Rey who has been expelled without being given the opportunity to show her seriousness towards Jovanka.

Naturally indeed. Jo's parents reject her and prefer Alexy who is a doctor. No parent wants to see their child suffer.

Alexy who is a doctor is more promising to be able to make their daughter happy in the future. And Rey what work? He's just a student. But, Jo's parents forget, behind the material to make her son happy there is love.

Of love? Klise heard it. If the reason is love. That love can grow in line if you are married. If so, if the opposite?

Jo will probably be happy with the wealth and materials after the household. But, I don't know his love. Will he be happy to live with a man who is betrothed by his parents? I don't know.

Rey walks gontai on the sidewalk. He thought, in what way to convince both parents Jovanka so they can give a chance for him.

Drett ... Drett ....

The vibration of the hand phone that has washed away all his daydreams. Rey reached into the hape that he was holding and shifted the screen hape.

“Nana phone?” Rey swiped the screen to receive phone calls.

(Yes, Na. What's up?)

(Mama, bang. Mama's sick) Rhiena sobs.

(What?) Rey is shocked to hear from her sister (What's sick, Na?) connect Reynand.

(Body hot mom, bang. My mother did not want to be taken to the hospital. Mama wants to see my brother.) Rhienne explained.

Oh my God ... I should how? Complaints in his heart.

(Yes, now my brother is leaving. Please persuade your mother to check in with the hospital.)

Tut! Phone turned off.

***

Without thinking. Rey immediately decided to return to Jakarta by train. He took out the school textbook in his backpack and stuffed some clothes into it.

“Lu where to go, Rey?” ask Vicky wonder.

“Gue wants to go back, Vic. How many days.”

“What problem is there? Really bad.”

“Nyokap hurts, bro! Sorry I was in a hurry to catch the train.” departure

“Wait a moment. Let me take you to the station, Rey!” Vicky rushed out the motor and drove the iron horse at high speed.

.

Vicky parked his bike and followed Rey to buy a train ticket.

“Congratulations! Departure still ten minutes.” Rey breathed a sigh of relief.

“Rey.” Vicky called.

“hem.”

“Be careful, huh? Don't freak. May your nyokap be cured.” Vicky patted Reynand's shoulder.

“Thank’s yes, bro!” Rey hugged and patted her best friend's shoulder that was always there for her.

Until the time comes. The train arrived at the station. Rey rushes onto the train, five minutes later. The train leaves until it is no longer visible to Vicky's eyes.

Rey pulled out her phone and told her she couldn't get into work in a few days to Vina's mom via text message.

Rey's heart was shrouded in anxiety when she heard her mother was sick. The sadness he felt at this moment was not his top priority. He obeyed what was said by Jo, if indeed matchmaking would be united. I don't know in what way? Rey has a sincere heart for Jovanka.

***

Unexpectedly, the next day. About seven o'clock in the night. The family of Alexy's doctor comes to Jovanka's house to propose.

Suddenly, there is no preparation at all from the Jovanka family to welcome the arrival of Alexy and his parents.

“Nak Alex. Why didn't you tell me you were coming here tonight? We have no preparation to host Alex's family, ” said Meli.

“Gak papa, tan. Alex did not say. Alex doesn't want to trouble the auntie family. Alex is here to prove the seriousness of Alex to propose to Naura, daughter om and aunt.” Alex to the point at the core.

“Naura to where, tan?” ask Alexy.

“Again schoolwork at his friend's house. It'll be a national exam soon, Alex.” boy

“Oh ... Then what about Alex's intention to come here to propose to Naura, tan? What should be pushed back?” Alex asked back.

“Bent a minute, Son. We'd like to discuss deciding.” Pinta Meli's.

Meli and Rendi leave Alexy and his family to contemplate the decision to step down or accept it that night.

Alexy and his family are patiently waiting for a decision from Jovanka's parents. They also understand it, because this decision is not an easy matter.

Fifteen minute interval. Finally look also Jovanka's parents, waltzing back into the living room.

“Alhamdulillah ...” said from the lips of Alexy and his family.

“Then, how about their wedding, Sir?” ask Michael who is none other than Alexy's father.

“Then it. Probably waiting for Naura to graduate school. But, after marriage. Naura can continue college, right? I don't want my son to drop out of school because of marriage.” Rendy's firm.

“Ohh ... No problem, Sir. We also agreed with the father's plan to continue Naura's college."

Rendy and Michael shake hands. Meli and Nadia embrace. Not long after, Alexy's family gave a set of gold jewelry consisting of rings, necklaces and pendants, bracelets, and gifts as a symbol of the engagement has been implemented.

***

Jo walks up the stairs leading to his room. He was upset because Rey could not be contacted. There has been no word from her lover since Jo reported that she had been betrothed to a doctor.

His hesitation drifted as he climbed one by one the stairs. He felt drifting without a foothold at this moment. There was no place for him to complain.

“Jo ..” Meli called his name.

“Yes, Mam?”

“Sini, Son. Sit with mom and dad here.” Call Meli.

With shaky footsteps. Jo again stepped down the stairs to the family room. Where there's a papa and his mama with a serious face.

“What's up, Ma?” asked Jo who had been sitting next to her mother.

Silent.

The situation became more tense when the atmosphere was struck by silence.

“Jo ...” says papaanya.

Jo looks up. Looking at the face of his father who really looked serious.

“Tadi, Alexy family come here.” Speech ceased.

“They have asked you to papa to get engaged and we have accepted the engagement.”

“What? Papa, mama can't do that! Jo just didn't give you the decision or not!” Jo denied.

“This is for your happiness, Son.” Timpal.

“Who wants to marry, Jo is not a mom or papa!” Jo's eyes are glazed.

“Jo!” Papa snaps.

“We have decided! Unable to be inviolable!” say the papa again.

“Bad papa!” Jo ran up the stairs.

He locked the door and threw his body into the bed. Jo crying. No one can understand his feelings right now. His girlfriend could not be contacted either.

Her tears continued to slide down her cheeks and neck until they were mixed between tears and sweat.

“Why are mom and dad the same as me? I don't love Alexy! I hate this, Lord!”

Jovanka kept crying. Anger with this situation he manifested with tears of roiling.

“Rey! Where are you? I need you, Rey!” Jovanka continued to wail.

The question is over without anyone being able to answer. He closed his eyes to sleep when he felt tired of the reality he was facing.

“Ma?” Rey called her mother who was lying on her bed.

“Rey?”

Her mother's net is rounded. Unbelieving when he saw his son was in front of him.

“Iya. This is Rey, Ma.” Rey held both of her mother's hands.

“Rey? This is you, son?” Her mother's eyes were glazed. Haru, which he felt.

Rey nodded her head.

“Rey!”

Nadin hugged his son. This mother's longing finally broke with the dissolving of tears on Nadin's cheeks.

Rhiena was happy amidst the happy cries she was witnessing at this moment. Nadin misses his son too much. The child who always defends when he was in a fuss with his father before the divorce.

Rhiena let them take off the longing. He chose to go outside the room. However, the device on his arm trembled.

“Kak Vicky?” Rhiena's eyes were wide.

Rhiena hurriedly moved away from her mother and brother. He shifted the screen.

(Hello, sis. What's up?) rhiena answered in the phone.

(Hi, Na. Brother just wanted to make sure. Rey is there, right?) ask Vicky.

(Some, same mom, brother. What's up, huh?)

(No papa. Oh yeah, how's mom, Na?)

(Again cry. Maybe he spilled the longing on bang Rey with a cry.)

(But no one is worried, right, Na?)

(Either. Mama hasn't been seen by the doctor, sister. Maybe Rey's sister will try to persuade mom.)

(Yes already. Hope it heals, Na. Sorry Vicky can't look at my mom yet.)

(Yes. No papa brother. Yes, Nana hang up the phone first yes, sister.)

.

Rey stepped onto the second floor. He looks for Rhiena in his favorite place, the balcony room.

Justright. Rhiena was enjoying the wind downstream blowing into her hair.

Rey keeps a close eye on her sister, who has been keeping her mother alone for almost a year. There was a sense of guilt that Rey felt at this moment.

Guilt for his sister and mother because he was unable to take care of them. Rey is increasingly determined to attend school at DFS in Jakarta, so that she can take care of her mother and sister.

Rey feels like a useless person to the people she cares about. Not even the heart of the woman he loves can be happy. He had lost to a man far more established than him.

Is money everything in this world?

Drett ... Drett ... Gawai Reynand trembled.
