OJO NGONO MAS

The Albronze 1 family

"Sir Noah!"

Sri gasp. But quickly dampened his surprise. Lucky looked at him dislikeingly. Interestingly, he sat more tightly and grabbed his waist. Sri looked at Lucky clumsily.

Frans was calm. And Melani just smiled gracefully. But Vira seemed to glance at Frans for a moment, then quickly cast her gaze in another direction. Sri caught a strange glint there, but it was only a glimpse. Vira can hide that well. Sri was able to see the attitude of the women in the Albronze family residence. Elegantly. It is inversely proportional to him who is used to being unpretentious like most people.

After hugging Frans, Noah greets his aunt. Melani touches Noah's cheek with affection. His nephew is handsome. No less handsome than his son.

"Noah, honey, this is Sri your sister's wife" said Vira introduced Sri to Noah.

"Hello sister-in-law. Nice to meet you" said Noah extending his hand in front of Sri.

Sri wanted to stand up to welcome Noah's hand. But Lucky held his waist tight. Makes Sri undo his intentions. Staring awkwardly at Aunt Vera who stumbled on an amused smile saw Lucky's behavior. Be Sri greeting Noah by staying seated in his place.

Noah just tilted the tip of his lips slightly. He knew this rival jerk was a big jealous. Ignoring Sri's awkward attitude, Noah also reached out his hand to Lucky.

"Welcome, brother" he said.

Lazily, Lucky welcomed Noah's hand. Then quickly pull it again. Sri really wanted to ask the two men. It turns out that all this time they both hid about the relationship between relatives between the two. Sri wanted to pin both of their heads.

Mr. Gani who turned out to be the butler in the Albronze mansion came to face, and bowed respectfully.

"Sorry sir, the great sir is waiting" he said.

They all throw one another a look. Lucky's face turned dark. Then Noah stood up and led them all to the top floor. Everyone is following.

Arriving in front of a large door, everyone stopped. Noah looked at Frans.

"It's better that uncle comes in first" he said. Frans remained silent. Then look at Lucky.

"You want to get in first, Luck?" tanyakanya.

Lucky's jaw tightens. Her papa was still trying to give her a chance to let go of that anger. But Lucky can't. Just avoiding the look of his papi.

Realizing that, Noah relented. He opened the door wide, and entered first. I don't know why the atmosphere became more tense. Sri can feel the thick aroma of hostility from Lucky's attitude. Her husband looked very cold.

It looks like a very large bedroom inside. There was a king size bed with a beautifully carved teak head. And in the middle was an old man lying still. But Sri could not see his face clearly.

Next to him was an old woman sitting on a rocking chair. Staring at Noah and glancing out of the room where everyone was waiting.

Noah looked closer to the bed. I don't know what he's talking about. Then go back to meet everyone outside.

"Please enter uncle" said Noah.

They all go in one by one. Lucky still remained in place. His face looked very stiff and serious. Noah looked at him waiting for Lucky to step in.

Sri touched Lucky's hand and held it tightly. Lucky turned to him and Sri nodded with a smile. Funneling power to Lucky.

Steadily, Lucky finally stepped in. Keep holding Sri's hand as if they do not want to be separated. They were all already inside this magnificent room. Everyone was silent with bated breath.

I can feel the tension between them. A little confused as to what really happened. Why they and their families are hostile to each other and like spreading cold war.

Sri was only able to clearly see the condition of the old man on the bed, and the woman next to him. They are both Lucky's grandparents, parents of Frans Papi.

The old face that still left the good looks was weak. His skin looks clear. On sight, the two of them were around eighty years old. And that woman was staring at Melani without being able to describe the meaning of her gaze. Old lady with a firm-looking oval face.

Grandpa Fredi reaches out his hand to Papi Frans. And soon Papi Frans came near to him. Kneeled beside the big bed, and clasped the wrinkled hand and kissed it.

"Dad.."

"You come Frans.." The old voice trembled.

"Yes dad. I'm right here"

"Thank you for coming"

Frans just kissed those wrinkled hands. Tears flowed from the corner of Fredi's grandfather's eyes.

"Frans, I miss you so much" he said weakly.

Frans silent. Still kneeling and bowing his head. The atmosphere immediately ambushed them. But Sri is astonished to see Lucky's grandmother. The old woman simply stared silently expressionlessly. Frans turned to him. Grasping the old woman's hand tightly. Staring at him for a moment, then peeking at the back of his wrinkled hands.

"Mothers.. I'm home" Frans said.

"You forgot us Frans" he said firmly. Stare at Frans sharply.

"I always remember you. Never to forget. Mom and dad are here" Frans pointed to his chest.

Unexpectedly, the woman was crying. His eyes were a clear water that was rushing about. All the women who were there also shed their tears. Except for Sri who was still confused about the situation that she did not understand.

"Pardon your father and mother son" he said weakly and sobbed bitterly.

"Lani. come here" Fredi's grandfather called Melani's mother.

Melani stepped forward. Stop right next to the big bed. Staring at Fredi's grandfather with tears.

"Lani. my daughter-in-law. Will you forgive me, old man?" ask Fredi to beg.

Melani immediately knelt down beside the bed. Grasping his father-in-law's hand.

"Dad, don't talk like that. Melani never hated you. We have to apologize for coming now" Melani replied sobbing.

"You're always kind. I was wrong to treat you badly. Frans is lucky to get you" Fredi's grandfather sighed deeply.

"Dad" Melani kissed her father-in-law's hand. Then switch to her mother-in-law. "Mother..."

Unexpectedly, Liana's grandmother immediately grabbed Melani's body. Hugged her tightly and said a barrage of sorry words while sobbing.

"I'm sorry Lani.. I'm sorry"

They hugged each other tightly. No one could stand to see the atmosphere. Aunt Vira has been crying since. Noah just looked down inside. But the other with Lucky. This man was just grieving and muttering indistinctly.

Melani breaks down a hug with her mother-in-law. Looking at Lucky and Sri. Calling them both to come closer. Lucky's legs seemed stiff can't move. His body refused to come closer. Sri is confused between fulfilling Melani's call, or staying beside Lucky.

"Mase, come on" Sri somewhat pulled Lucky's arm to get closer. But Lucky was still silent. Hate was still in his heart.

"Lucky.. Won't you forgive your grandfather?" Grandpa Fredi stared at Lucky Nelangsa.

Seeing that, Sri did not have the heart. Is that how Lucky was to his grandparents? until his body stiffened. Refusing to get closer.

Melani approaches Lucky. Touching his son's cheek with affection. Lucky looked at his mother's face in silence.

"Darling, don't be. He's your grandpa and grandma. Soften your heart, son" said Melani smilingly to calm her son's rumbling heart.

Lucky breathed heavily. Because of his mother he was willing to melt the hatred that was embedded in his heart for years. Staring at Sri and pulling her to get closer to her grandfather's bed.

Fredi looked at his first granddaughter with tears streaming down the corner of his eyes. Sri was satisfied to see that. The deep regret was clearly reflected in the old eyes.

"Lucky.. You don't want to forgive grandpa?" ask Fredi.

Sri pulls Lucky's hand to get closer to Fredi's grandfather. And Lucky according to. Sitting on his grandfather's bedside.

"You're so brave. I lost" Fredi's grandfather touched Lucky's hand and smiled sadly.

Guilt was clearly visible in his eyes. Admire his first grandchild. The grandson he never acknowledged. The grandson he thought was just carrying shit. But now, Lucky looks very captivating, and he is the one who will inherit most of the Albronze family's fortune.

"I'm sorry Luck" said Fredi Lirih. Grasping Lucky's hand tightly. "You forgive me, don't you?" ask again.

Lucky let out a heavy sigh and gave a small nod without opening his voice. That was a relief for Fredi. He was guilty of wasting Lucky. Now he must admit his defeat for blocking the love between Frans and Melani. Fredi looked at Sri. Sri nodded small and smiled warmly.

."She your wife?" ask Fredi to Lucky.

Lucky's face was hardened again. Strictly stand up and clutch at Sri's waist. Stare at his grandfather sharply. The trauma is still there.

"He's my wife. Don't touch it" The resolute voice involuntarily slid from Lucky's lips.

Fredi chuckled softly. It turned out that her grandson still harbored trauma with the past.

"Close up. I won't bother him" Fredi said moving her hand calling Sri to come closer. Lucky kind of held Sri back. Not willing if Sri stayed away from him. A sense of worry lingered on his chest. Sri smiled gently at Lucky. He said through his eyes that this would be fine.

With a heavy heart Lucky let Sri loose and approached Fredi. Grabbing those wrinkled hands and kissing the back of his hand.

"Good girl" Fredi smiled warmly. "You must take care of my cold granddaughter. He needs exclusive treatment"

Sri was shocked to hear that. Grandpa Fredi makes a little joke that makes everyone smile. And Lucky just grumbled.

"Yes grandpa. Sri will take good care of Lucky mas" replied Sri.

"You don't want to introduce her to grandma, Luck?" the old voice greeted Lucky.

Lucky looked at him. But just shut up. Sri immediately took the initiative to get closer.

"grandmother.. I'm Sri. Mase's wife" Sri said.

"You're so sweet" Liana's old face sparkled. She could feel the warmth of the family in her eyes. "Hug me"

Sri hugged Liana's grandmother. Everyone can breathe a sigh of relief now. This family can regroup. Become a whole family. Although there is less. The second child of the Albronze family has not yet appeared. And the third son, Noah's father, has not been seen.

Most importantly, the hatred had already begun to fade. Lucky has already accepted his pardon from his grandparents. There is still one more cause of trouble in this family that they have not met. Fardo Albronze's. The second son of Fredi Albronze.
