My Girl

part 29's

Sumi was busy in the kitchen, preparing a special dish for this meeting. He set the dining table lovingly. Really, she did not expect that her eldest daughter would release her single life so soon. While Denis was getting ready to wear his best clothes in this family meeting.

"Dea, hurry! Marco's family will be here soon. Come on, make sure everything is in a neat state" Sumi said with a happy smile.

Dea came excitedly to the living room. She was dressed in pretty clothes and dressed carefully.

"Yes, Mommy! Everything is ready" Dea said.

Just in time, a car horn sounded, indicating the arrival of a guest. Sumi opened the door, and in front of her stood Nurdin and Ratna and Marco.

"Welcome, Mr. Nurdin, buk Ratna, and Marco! It is an honor for me to welcome your extended family to our home" Sumi said with a warm smile.

"Thank you, Sumi. We are also very happy to be able to visit Dea's hometown and meet your family" Nurdin replied with a smile. But the face Raut shown by Ratna looked unfriendly. Her face did not radiate happiness there at all.

Seeing that, Sumi became unwell. How not, surely we will also feel the same thing not as what is felt by Sumi. Surely we will think what our fault is so that Ratna can look at us with a dislike gaze. That's how I guess.

They sat together at the dinner table and began to enjoy the dishes that Sumi served. The atmosphere became more familiar and fluid along with the conversation and laughter heard in the room. But Ratna still shows dislike to the Dea family.

"Ma, try to smile at them. From that moment on, the glum continues. Not good with his family Dea" Bisik Nurdin.

Because Nurdin asked for it, Sumi also smiled which did seem forced.

"How did you guys get here? Hopefully not too tiring" said Sumi smiling.

"Our journey went well, Sumi. We are very happy to be here and get to know your family more closely" Nurdin said.

After finishing eating the dishes, they sat in a simple chair in the living room of the Dea house.

"One more time thank you for the welcome, Sumi. Our arrival here is indeed something we would like to discuss with you. You came with good intentions and great expectations" said Nurdi sound wise.

"Oh, maybe Dea and Marco? I know they love each other and have a strong relationship" Sumi guessed with passion.

Nurdin nodded.

"Yes, you're right. Ratna and I have discussed it and feel that it is time to go further. We'd like to apply for Dea as a future wife for Marco" he added.

"I didn't expect this to happen. But I'm very happy to hear it. Dea is a good boy, and I know he will be a good wife to Marco" Sumi said.

"Thank you for your words, Sumi. We also feel that Dea is a special woman and deserves to be part of our family. We want to build stronger and more supportive relationships"

"I accept this proposal with an open heart. Marco is a good man and they love each other.. I am sure they will form a happy family" Sumi said with teary eyes.

"Thank you, Sumi. Your support and support means a lot to us. We will try to take care of Dea as best we can, and give her the happiness she deserves" Nurdin said.

Dea and Marco walk together on the shores of an artificial lake. The gentle sunlight illuminated their surroundings, creating a romantic atmosphere. Well a few days Marco and his family were staying at his hometown of Dea.

"This place is really beautiful. I never imagined there was a lake as beautiful as this near my hometown" said Dea smiling happily to his lover.

"Yes, Dey. This lake is amazing. I'm glad to be able to take a walk with you here, enjoy the beauty of nature" Marco smiled gently.

Dea and Marco walked slowly, enjoying the fresh air and the view presented by the artificial lake. They talked, laughed, and shared stories.

"Look, mom! It was ducks swimming there. They look so happy and free" Dea said, pointing towards the water.

"Yes, they really remind us to live freely and enjoy the beauty around. Like us now, enjoy this moment together" Marco replied as he watched the ducks with a smile.

Dea and Marco continue their journey along the shores of the lake. They arrive at a small pier located on one side of the lake, offering stunning views.

"Dey, being here with you right now, by this lake, makes me even more convinced that you are the one I want to live this life with" Marco gently held Dea's hand.

"Mas.I feel the same way. We have shared many wonderful moments together, and I want to continue this journey with you. I love you mas" Dea said.

"I love you too, Dea. You are the light of my life and I want to keep and love you all my life." Marco smiled lovingly.

Dea and Marco share a warm embrace by the lake, feeling the happiness and power of love that binds them together. They take time to enjoy the beauty of nature and enjoy the beautiful moments they have created together.

After a few days in Dea's hometown, Marco and his family return to the capital. The engagement between Marco and Dea will take place over the next two months.

"I can't let them be together. Dea doesn't deserve to be part of our family. I have to make a plan that will separate them" Ratna said in her heart.

As Ratna pondered, Nurdin entered the guest room where his wife was currently. With a face full of confusion, Nurdin approached Ratna.

"Ma, something's not right with you lately. I see you agitated and unhappy. Is something wrong?" Nurdi asked the middle-aged woman.

"Oh, it's okay, pa. There was a little bit of business that made me a little distracted. I'm trying to finish it" Ratna lied to her husband.

"Ma, we have to speak honestly. I feel like there's something you're hiding from me. Is there a problem between us or between Marco and Dea" asked Nurdin again worried to his wife.

"There's nothing really, really" replied Ratna again.

***

That night Dea was invited by Nurdin to dinner together at his home. This is to strengthen their relationship because it will later become one family. And also Nurdin wanted to give an opportunity to Dea to get closer and make Ratna's heart melt so that it can accept the girl with open arms. Well when Dea and Marco's family returned to the capital together that time.

The dining room in Marco's house is elegantly decorated. The dining table is beautifully laid out, preparing for dinner. Dea sat next to Marco, while Ratna sat across from them. The middle-aged woman seemed to be in no mood to interact with the girl.

Nurdin coded Dea so the girl could start the conversation. Dea tried to start the conversation with a friendly smile, but Ratna looked indifferent.

"How was your day, Aunt Ratna?" Dea asked with a slightly trembling tone. The girl was a little afraid of her future mother-in-law because of the incident the other day. Where he was humiliated in public while working at the cafe Marco.

"It's normal" said Ratna indifferently as she kept busy with thrusting food into her mouth.

Dea tried to pay attention to Ratna's mood and tried to keep the conversation going.

"Toon looks amazing. Thank you very much to aunt Ratna for her hospitality" said the girl who had the dimples softly.

"Yes, no need to thank me. It was my duty as the host" replied the middle-aged woman expressionlessly.

Dea felt a little disappointed with Ratna's attitude, but she tried to keep a positive atmosphere.

Want her taste the girl went from that unpleasant atmosphere. But the girl still thinks of Nurdin and Marco there. Where both the father and the son really hope Dea can make Ratna's heart melt.

Dea sighed heavily and tried to carve a smile on her lips.

Seeing Ratna wanted to pour a drink in her glass, the girl took the initiative to give a glass of water that she had poured since.

"No need to be sweet to me. I don't need that at all" Ranta said, not responding to the girl's gift. He prefers to pour the water himself into his glass.

Again the power looks disappointed with Ratna's cold attitude to him. The girl again let out her heavy breath.

Marco knew with his lover's mood it was. The man clasped the hand of the girl beside him as a spirit giver for the girl.

Marco smiled kindly to his lover. Dea replied with a smile anyway. The girl strengthened her heart for the sake of the man she loved.

Nurdin was also concerned to see Dea who was not so cared for by Ratna.

"Let's continue the food son" said Nurdin trying to melt the tense atmosphere.

***

Marco still felt uneasy in his heart over his mother's cold treatment of the girl. Marco clasped the girl's hand feelingly. He looked at the eyeball of the girl who had stolen his heart deeply.

"Dey, I love you so much. I don't want to lose you" said the man.

"Yes, I love you too. I don't want to lose you either"

"Dey, I beg of you, whatever happens stay with me. No matter what your attitude is to you, never leave me" Pinta Marco was heard pleading with the girl who had the dimples.

"Yes, I will endure for the sake of my love for you. I will always be by your side no matter what. I'll try to get your mama to accept me later"

"Thank you Dey, thank you for not giving up on loving me. We will fight together to convince Mama that our relationship is sanctioned. To be honest I can't afford to lose you and I certainly wouldn't be able to live without you by my side" Marco said, fearing the loss of the girl he loved.

Dea smiled full haru. He buried his head into the chest of his beloved field.

"Yes, it's late and it's better to go inside and rest" said Marco after a long time they hugged. Marco asks his lover to go into his boarding house to rest on this tired night.

"Yes, I entered first into you carefully return home" Dea told her lover.

"Yes you take it easy, Sweety"

Dea smiled and went straight into her boarding. Dea threw her body on the bed. He stared at the ceiling of his boarding room while thinking about how the future of his relationship and Marco. She loved the man so much but Ratna never agreed to their relationship.

"O Allah, make it easy for my soul mate and Marco. We love each other. We want to practice halal ties and worship. Open the door of Aunt Ratna's heart so she can receive me with open arms" the Dea Prayer closed her eyes.

"Allah is Allah, only I ask You. And only to you I beg. There is no greater power over your power. Only You can turn the hearts of men upside down. Therefore grant my request, O Allah" added again.

Ting...

Dea's cell phone notification reads a sign of a message coming in. Dea opened the contents of the message how it was from Marco.

"Good mala sweety. Happy resting. Present me in your sweet dreams" Her message by sending her love emod to her lover.

Dea smiled happily to get that simple yet romantic message.

"Thank you ma boy, I am also present in your beautiful dreams. Love you ma boy" Reply Dea.

"Love you too sweety"

Dea tried to close her eyes in order to sleep soundly on that silent night. The girl hoped that tomorrow a miracle would come in which Ratna could accept herself with open arms.
