My girlfriend's my best friend's father

CHAPTER 39: Serious Talks

I knocked on the door of the house, then a woman who might be in her thirties opened the door for me.

"Good night, must be Lia? Let's go in mba, I'm mom Emi who takes care of mom during mba Lia in hospital." He greeted me with a friendly smile.

"Good night, yes I am Lia. Thank you for taking care of my mother during my treatment." I gave my best smile to her as a tribute to her for taking care of my mother while I was in the hospital.

"Mom's in the mba's room." I went in and looked for my mother in her room.

"Mother!! Lia's home!" I immediately hugged my mother, let go of the longing because it had not met for a week. Although almost every time we video call but still not at once treat my same sense of longing mother.

"Mom's son is healthy?" Mom seemed to shed her tears.

"Mom, Lia promised to take care of Lia's health for mother." I also moved and shed my tears.

"Lia, I was worried so much while you were in the hospital, I'm sorry because now the mother's condition is very limited in motion." Mom kissed my forehead.

"No ma'am, it's Lia who should be worried about mom because she's alone at home."

"Mothers are not alone, there is mom Emi who nemenin mom. The person is kind, deft and the work is very neat. She is comfortable talking to him too. But Lia, Emi's mother will be rewarded with her father Anita, mother so it's not nice if she long cooperation us." My face became grim when I said that.

"Well, now there's Lia at home, so Emi can go back to her house from tomorrow."

"Mom Emi's at the wages for our cooperation during this month Lia. I mean, actually the mother is comfortable and happy because her presence is very helpful for mother and mother so do not worry about your college that is often disturbed by mother. But the next month I have to be alone again without the help of Emi's mom, so confused Lia." I understand the purpose of mother's words, surely mother does not feel good if Beby continues to pay her wages, but on the other hand mother also needs her energy and so do I.

"Yes, then Lia will try to keep Emi's mom here to help mom, now I don't think about the heavy things first." I began to try to calm my mother's heart, but now in my heart and mind it began to be unsettled and confused.

I just got out of my seat and left my mother in the room, but then she called me again.

"Lia, there's something I want to talk about for a second, okay? Or tomorrow if Lia's okay." I'd like to talk to you about something important.

"Now there's nothing, either. What do you want to talk about spal?" I sat back on the side of my mother's room.

"Lia, a few days ago, Anita's father came here. Long story short, he said he had given you some money for your tuition until it was finished. Then he gave the mother an envelope that turned out to be money, if not the wrong value of tens of millions. He said for the cost of the necessities of life we both, later if less we contact him again." Mom spoke very carefully and I listened to her carefully.

"Mother refused the money she gave Lia. I'm not happy to accept it, because he's someone else even though he's your girlfriend. And I also still don't think you just take money from him for your tuition. Your tuition fees are pretty big, Lia, and it's still two semesters away now. What's the savings from my father's legacy you haven't spent all this time on your college?" Mom seemed to be seriously asking me that.

I was confused what the right answer I told my mother, because in fact the savings money from my father's legacy was no longer enough to finance my college, plus the mother who is no longer working and lately we spend a considerable cost for maternal therapy and treatment.

"Lia, why shut up? Since I got sick, I no longer pay attention to the rest of the savings. If it is not enough, should we just open a business for our daily needs?" I still told him about the savings to me.

"Hm.. Mom, if you really want to know, Lia will be honest. Actually, the rest of the savings was not enough for Lia's tuition. Because, Lia used the money for the cost of maternal treatment and maternal therapy. Lia plans to work as an intern, but until now still delayed ma'am, and all this time we were helped by her father Anita and Rendy in providing daily needs, even for the medical expenses Lia yesterday..."

"Lia, why don't you tell me the same mother?" Mom cut my conversation.

"Hm.. Lia..." I began to panic and follow confused like mother.

"Mommy's not so good with Rendy and Anita's dad. We need to figure out a way not to depend on anyone else, Lia." My mother's face looked very worried.

"Mother don't be confused, let Lia who is the business yes, let Lia who is looking for work so mothers focus on just the same health of mothers." I try to give the best solution for my mother.

"Yes but finding a gini day job is not easy Lia. After all, as long as you have not got a job, will we continue to depend on the good people? They're Lia's other people, they're not your mother's children and they're not your husband either, maybe if one of them is your husband, mother can still receive help from them even though this heart does not feel as good as using her own money." Mother's words are true, and I should also know myself because until now I have continued to depend on living with Beby and Rendy very well. Is it possible because I have never felt the feeling of working and looking for money myself that I am so overwhelmed and easily accept help from them?

"I mean mother like this Lia, if indeed you and her father Anita are serious, it would be nice for you to get married soon. I have no problem if you have not finished your college, because the condition of the mother is now also sickly. I can't work anymore to live both of us." Finally I understand the direction of this conversation, in addition to because we have to find a way to make money, mother also must be uncomfortable if you continue to receive help from others so ask me to get married immediately.

"Yesterday, Rendy came here too, she said she meant to marry you when you were ready. But it is with a heavy heart that I tell you that you already have a relationship with her father Anita. And apparently he knows." I was very surprised to hear that, so Rendy had already met her mother and asked to marry me.

"Right Rendy told mom she wanted to marry me mom? He said so to me, but I didn't give him the same answer. Because for me marriage is not a trivial thing, ma'am, I don't want to take any wrong steps." I'm trying to explain my point of view to mom, and I haven't got any certainty from Beby whether he's going to marry his ex-wife or me.

"He said the same mother because mother also told Rendy about her father Anita who gave mother money but mother refused. Then he finally said he wanted to marry you so he could be the head of the household and get enough of our lives." Mom explained it to me.

"Then did you answer Rendy? Why did you tell me about Anita's father like her?" I'm a little disappointed that I told Rendy about the money she refused, because I don't think Rendy should know too much about us.

"Mother told me because I'm honestly afraid that Anita's father is offended, Lia. But that way I know clearly that there is Rendy who is serious about you, besides I see you also seem to like Rendy." I really like Rendy, but my heart isn't sure about her.

"Mother, honestly I'm still not sure how I feel about Rendy. I also have a plan to ask for certainty from her father Anita whether she is serious about me or not. So I asked her to pray from my mother, so that I would be given a good soul mate, ma'am." My determination to get certainty from Beby became stronger, I had to get an answer whether he was serious with me or not. And I also have to think about my future with my mother, as I said I can not rely on others.
