My Family's Secret

Marrying

5 Months passed. Now the wedding preparations for Allard and I are almost mature, just fittings and all done.

This afternoon Allard promised to accompany me on the shirt fittings. Well the 5 months you spent preparing for the wedding got us pretty close now.

"Allard, I'll be fitting a dress, right?" my many.

"Sorry Alexa, later in the afternoon I have an appointment with one of the clients and he is an important client," Allard replied regretfully.

"You promised far away. Canceled all of a sudden."

"Yes, I know, but it's really important. I'm sorry."

"So your client is more important than me?"

"Not that, ck please understand Alexa. I can't today."

"You clucked? So that's your attitude huh? Okay fine! I can make my own dress fittings without being accompanied by you!"

After saying that I immediately turned off the phone.

"What the hell is this? He's more concerned about his clients than I am?!" my nag.

"Calm down, Alexa."

"I can't calm down, Merry. You heard yourself earlier, Allard even clucked at me. He's a fucking bitch!"

"alright. You better drink this tea first. This can calm your emotions" Merry said, giving a cup of warm tea.

I drank it too.

"What tea is this? Very good and fragrant, my stress was completely reduced after drinking it" I said.

"I know you've been tired lately. That's why I asked my expert friend about tea, but I feel so sorry for my friend."

"Pity why?"

"His knowledge of tea leaves was extensive. Even he could build the biggest tea company with that knowledge, but unfortunately not a single businessman wanted to cooperate with him because they all doubted this friend of mine."

"How old is your friend, Merry?"

"15 years."

Hearing that, I immediately knew the reason the entrepreneurs refused to be invited to cooperate.

"Can you meet me with him?"

"Of course Alexa, but for what?"

"I was quite interested in him after hearing your story. I intend to get her to work together and I hope she's what you told me."

"Sure! He won't let you down." After that I continued my work.

In the afternoon, I went to the boutique for dress fittings.

"How lady? Do you like this model?"

I saw myself in the mirror, I really liked this dress. "Like! Really like! I'll choose this model."

"Can't" said someone.

"Allard?!"

"Replace other models" Allard said in a dislike tone.

"don't want. I love this model."

"I said replace, Alexa. I don't like to be disputed."

"Give me the reason!"

"The dress is too open" he replied.

"Where did it open?"

"Your shoulder is exposed very clearly."

"Inadvertently! I love the shape of my shoulder, which is why I chose this open shoulder dress."

"I don't like it. Replace it!"

"No way!"

"Alexa Olivia Harrison."

When Allard called my name in full, it meant that he was already at the limit of his patience. But I also can't take it for granted, this is a wedding dress that I only wear once in my life. So of course this should be to my liking.

"I'm sorry, sir. I understand the reason you don't like the dress chosen by Miss Alexa but you also have to think about the feeling of Miss Alexa. After all this is a dress that is only used once in a lifetime" someone said.

Who is this guy? I asked in my heart.

"Ah yes earlier introduce me Dion Hastanta, assistant to Mr. Allard," he said, introducing himself, as if he knew what I was thinking.

"Hastanta? I'm no stranger to that name" I murmured.

"Anyways you should change the dress model because I don't like it!" his orders.

"Sir, how about the lady use the outer net so that her shoulder is not too exposed but also not too closed? Isn't that fair enough for you two?" dion gave me advice.

"Good idea! Why didn't I think of it!" said the dressmaker.

"Alright, I agree with that," I said.

It did not feel like the wedding day had arrived.

"Miss Alexa, 10 minutes to the hall" said someone.

"Good."

"It's a great granddaughter, granddaddy," said Grandpa.

I just smiled in response.

"Udah ready? Let's go down, all the guests are waiting." I took Grandpa's hand and walked into the hall. After the big door opened, the song was played. Grandpa walked up to the groom to take me.

Arriving in front of the groom, grandfather gave my hand to him. "Dear grandfather's favorite granddaughter is fine, Allard."

"Surely." replied firmly.

After we took our oath of allegiance, the party went well. All the guests seemed to enjoy the show. Well I'm grateful for that.

"You look so beautiful" praised Allard.

I disregarded.

"Why? You don't look excited today."

The time you spent preparing for this has indeed brought us closer together, but I haven't found a single thing about him yet. All I know now is his name and age. Who exactly is he? Why is it so hard to find anything about him.

"Alexa."

"Yes?"

"You why? You sick? Want to go home now?" tanyanya.

"I'm fine, Allard," I replied.

"Tell me you're tired." I'm nodding.

The show is over. All guests are welcome to go home.

"Stay tonight, Allard," said grandfather.

"I want to but unfortunately I can't Bagas because there is still work to do" replied Allard.

"Call me grandfather, you're my grandson now."

"Good, grandpa."

"Hmmm so. What can you do if you can't."

"You're still thinking about work on our wedding day?" just pissed

"Sorry Alexa, this job is very important. I'll pick you up tomorrow."

"Whatever."

Allard kissed my forehead and left. On our first night, I was left alone.

Arriving at grandfather's house, I immediately cleaned myself and went to sleep.

"Alexa, not everyone who deals with "it's a bad thing baby" said someone.

"Who are you?" my many.

I can't see his face. Darkened.

"Follow your heart. Not because of the past, you're so wary of everyone."

I also woke up. I don't know why I miss my mom and dad. I took a shower and went somewhere.

I approached the two gravestones bearing the names of my parents.

"Dad, Mom, Alexa is really like you guys. Alexa is now big, Alexa is already someone's wife. But Alexa is confused, Alexa does not know anything about Alexa's husband. Alexa was afraid that she had something to do with "that "thing. What should Alexa do if she has a relationship? Alexa's not ready for mom's dad." I've been spilling all the feelings that have been piling up all this time.

"Yaudah Alexa said yes, father and mother. Alexa will come here often. Now Alexa has to work, a lot of patients are waiting for Alexa." After that I kissed the two gravestones and left.

Suddenly someone ran towards me and hugged me. "ALEX."

"Allard?!"

"I told you I was going to pick you up!Why aren't you waiting for me?!"

"Sorry."

He ruffled his hair in frustration. "Don't do this again!"

I'm nodding. I'm honestly scared of Allard right now.

Allard hugged me back. "I didn't mean to yell at you, I was just worried. Now we go home, okay?"

I'm shaking. "I have to go to work, Allard."

"Today you're off, I asked your boss for permission."

"don't want. Why am I on holiday but you work."

"I'm also off today. So let's go home and arrange the house the way you want."

We go home too.

Going home? Whither? I don't know.
