My Mom Wants to Mate

21. Dinner Together

"Oh, um, yeah." Karen is dead because Daniel is right. He was still amazed by the words Daniel had just thrown out.

He can talk that long too. Yes, yes, he is a doctor. He must have given an explanation to the patient too, right? (Karen).

Daniel opened the photo album in his hand. It is a family vacation photo. The photo seems to have been taken not long ago. Karen's appearance is as mature as it is now, Kendrik too. Her hair is still black.

You are more suited to red hair. (Daniel).

After seeing the first album, Daniel put it in place and took another album. The album contains Karen's activities during High School. On the first page is a photo of Karen who is a cheerleader. Daniel is no stranger to Karen's high school popularity.

Even though he was in college to get a medical degree, but he heard rumors about the cheerleader girl who achieves it. He often entered local magazines. Never would have thought that the former popular schoolgirl was next to him.

He opens the next page. There is a picture of Karen receiving an award given by her principal at the ceremony. Karen also looked at the photo that Daniel was looking at in a panic. Because on the third page, there is a picture of him with his ex-lover during High School.

The photo is not actually a personal photo of the two of them. At that time, the basketball team and cheerleader team took pictures together after competing. Karen and her ex-boyfriend are standing next to each other. Daniel opens the third page. Karen swallowed with great difficulty.

She wouldn't know it was my ex-boyfriend, would she? It was a photo of a crowd. So, calm calm calm calm down. (Karen).

Daniel recognized the face. The man next to Karen is Haris, Karen's former lover, who is also Daniel's relative. He remembers when the photo was published in a local magazine, his relatives showing and boasting to everyone.

He looked at the photo and glanced deep into the time the magazine was published. It was also written in the accompanying article that Karen and Haris are dating.

Oh, they're dreamy couple. (Daniel).

Because Daniel had been looking at the picture for too long, Karen panicked. "Not going to the next page, Niel?"

Hearing that, Daniel closes the photo album and returns it to its place.

"Niel, would you like to ask me something?"

Ja. You used to date Haris to become a dream partner, why now want to be betrothed to me? About 2 years ago you went to the hospital with a man, why would you even marry me? Why not marry him? (Daniel).

Daniel shakes.

"Aren't you curious about your future wife?" Karen kinda ride a pitam.

When viewed from the outside, Daniel seems to be not at all excited about this matchmaking and just like a robot who obeys the rules of his superiors.

"Ehm, why do you want to be betrothed to me?" Daniel finally opened his voice. That was the same question Karen asked at lunch yesterday.

"Because, maybe that's the line."

Daniel nodded. "okay."

Does he get a quality answer like that? Ich. Patience Karen, patience. (Karen).

He calmed himself down so as not to get angry. He also reassembled his feisty power because he was at his parents' house, not wanting to make his mother worry. She had to swallow the bitter pill of seeing the future husband who really did not care anything about her.

Perhaps, the doctor also did not really care what species to marry. The important thing is to obey his family's desire to get married. I thought so Karen.

Not long after, dinner was ready. Mama Puri called all to join the dining table. Karen's set up her latest acting.

"Look Niel, we're eating," Karen asked in a way to talk as cheerfully as possible.

"Yes." Yeah."

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I think again interview. (Karen).

"Here, Niel, sit by me!" karen said as she prepared a seat for Daniel nearby.

Daniel looked at Karen in astonishment. While in the living room, Karen wasn't this enthusiastic. Now, his attitude is very sweet.

"Son Daniel, Auntie does not know your favorite food so Aunt masakin his favorite Karen. Chicken stew."

Daniel nodded with a smile.

Karen's heart was upset but her face was smiling. He also eagerly took a side dish and drank to Daniel. He took 3 pieces of chicken on Daniel's plate. "This is yes Niel, spent in order to be healthy and strong."

Strong as a rock, hahaha. You don't want to eat this much, do you? If you want to protest, let's talk to me! (Karen).

"Eh, how much to take the chicken, later Daniel's fullness you know." Mama Puri got rid of 2 chickens on Daniel's plate.

"Make me here, Ma!" kendrik.

Karen was further upset that not only her mother, her sister saved Daniel that night. Karen finally gave up and stopped her desire to punish Daniel. Kendrik and Mama Puri look excited. This astonished Karen.

What makes them like this stone man? Am I the only one who spills the same as him. Raise the blood. (Karen).

After they finished eating, Daniel prepared to go home. Kendrik, Karen and Mama Puri deliver it to the front door.

With Karen's spirit saying goodbye. "Be careful, Niel, bye" said Karen.

Daniel only slightly pulled his lips to smile and nodded.

"Greetings to Ma'am Seli yes, son Daniel," said Mama Puri.

"Yes, Auntie" replied Daniel.

"When you come here again, Brother Niel."

"Yes, Ken."

Incredibly, he answered everyone but me. (Karen).

Daniel's car passed.

"You're the same she fits, Ren. He's a good boy" Mama Puri praised.

"Yes, Ma. I'm really happy with him, too" said Karen, the circus.

He may be able to fool Mama Puri, but all the pretenses did not escape the eyes of the sister. Kendrik pulled her into the television room, while Mama Puri went to the kitchen to clean up their food.

"What the hell, Ken?! I want to help Mama clean up the dinner table" Karen protested.

"Your fake smile can't be hidden from me, Koreng! Come ngomong!"

"Ehm, me, I'm just trying to ...." Karen hesitated to tell her sister. "I'm afraid I'll be a less than perfect wife."

"That's for sure."

"Snake sister!"

"Sister," Ken said as he pointed Karen's face at him. "I'm sure Brother Daniel is a good man and pantes for Brother." Then he went to his room.

Your advice is mysterious and dramatic, so go. Heh. Daniel seems to be a good guy, but we don't know what the real thing is. The proof is he's cruel to me, cuekkin I just. Not yet in love, heartbreak first. (Karen).
