Past Past Release

*Part - 14*

Inside the airport, Fey looked back many times, hoping that Kenzo's figure would appear, with the intention of catching up with him.

Until the plane he was on flew in the air, his lover did not also appear.

"Not my soul mate means anything" he murmured while tightly hugging Kenzie.

Now, only Kenzie can keep her entertained.

Babies who have started chattering that hobby of sleep, always give happiness to his mother who is being overwhelmed with grief.

Two hours later, Fey and his son arrived in Makassar. Seen at the door of arrival, his father and mother were standing to greet him.

Both of them hugged and kissed his son and grandson, especially Andi, he was very happy when he saw his adorable grandson. The half-century old man, reluctant to stay away from Kenzie.

Fey's sorrow seemed to disappear, when he saw his father's radiant face teasing his son. He hugs his mother and gives a code about his father's response to Kenzie.

"Opumu have bought a lot of gifts for Kenzie, ranging from baby walker, family tricycle, to a car that uses a battery, ckck."

"Well, is that really Ma?"

"Let's see it at home."

"Hehe, Opu is so happy that means Ma Kenzie will stay with him?

"Very happy, son. Opu talked to Mama last night, if Kenzie had to be with her."

"Haha, Opu-Opu."

Andi glanced at his wife, "do not unload Opu secrets with Fey Ma, embarrassed bah. Haha."

"Thank you for Opu."

Andi smiled and rubbed his daughter's hair, then handed Kenzie back to her mother.

"Your Mammu was le'Nak! Grandpa wants to drive the car first."

"Yes Grandpa, don't speed around with the car, Zie tatut, don't forget Grandpa ... We go to Maros' bakery first, Zie would love to eat the famous bread, hehe," Fey replied as he waved his son's hand at the father.

Andi and Khadijah laughed, and they immediately entered the car.

Fey immediately informed Sagina that he had arrived safely.

Sagina immediately replies to the message and invites to video call before going to bed later tonight.

Fey.

...

The next day, Fey got together with his father and mother on the porch to talk about matchmaking.

"How much panai money did you ask for, son? Because your future husband asked Opu."

"Reply, Opu. Seselupnya," replied Fey flatly.

Andi looked at his wife, both of whom knew that her daughter did not agree to be betrothed.

"Seventy-five or a hundred million, son?"

"Fey gave everything to Opu and Mama, the best according to Opu and Mama, is the best also according to Fey."

Andi took a deep breath, and then he spoke again. "You'll see him first thing tonight and your future husband will come."

"Iye's'."

"Yes, then. Ba'da isya le', please don't embarrass us a second time."

"Iye', God willing not Opu."

Andi smiled, then embraced his daughter's lethargic shoulders.

"Don't think about Kenzo, kid! Not good, not your soul mate means. The proof is he's not coming after you."

Fey nodded.

...

"Yes, Gin. I want to pretend to sleep first. Outside Opu again knock on my bedroom door."

Fey ended his video call with Sagina, then immediately pulled the blanket and closed his eyes.

Andi who had knocked on the door, finally decided to go straight in.

"Fey, meet your future husband first, son! He wants to talk about the time to propose."

Fey flirted, he persisted with his pretense.

"Son, get up for a second'e! Ndakak yuu, the guy's been waiting for you in the living room."

Fey's eyes were still closed, he was very lazy to meet the man who would be betrothed to him.

'Let him wait until dawn, Opu. Fey doesn't care.'

Andi shook his head, and he came out of his daughter's room, and met his guest.

"I'm sorry Fey le'Nak, maybe he's exhausted from yesterday's long journey. Last afternoon he had already handed everything over to Opu, when was the time of the proposal and the wedding."

"Briye', Opu. Ndak nothing'ji I really understand. How about next week's show, Opu?"

"Opu agrees, son. About panai money ...."

"How much did Fey ask?"

"He didn't decide, he said as much as he could't."

Fey's husband-to-be smiled, and they continued the conversation until midnight.

...

When morning came, Fey was called by Andi to discuss the incident last night.

The father was visibly emotional about his daughter's attitude, "what do you want, son? Want to embarrass us again?"

Fey bowed down, he did not dare to look at his father's emotion-ridden face.

"You want to expect Kenzo, but you don't think he cares about you. Be rational, don't be like ABG's son, look at Kenzie, he needs a father figure."

There was no answer Fey could say, he realized his mistake. Only a cry was heard.

"Opu wants to marry you, not just to give up the responsibility of Opu as a father to your husband. But Opu wants to see you happy. Have a whole family. Kenzie's getting bigger, he'll wonder why he only has Grandpa, while his friends have fathers? What would you say when he asked like that? Want to tell me her dad's dead or gone missing somewhere?"

Fey was getting sobbing, he cupped his hands together.

"Forget Kenzo! Songsong your future with a happy heart, we will not plunge you into bad things. We love you, son. So please don't embarrass us a second time."

Andi softened, he actually felt he could not bear to see his daughter like that. But that's all he can do. There was no way he would contact Kenzo, offering his daughter something that no longer sold on the market.

Fey rests on his father's lap, "forgive Fey, Opu. Fey wasn't ready to meet him last night. Give Fey a few days, after which Fey is willing to meet him before the day to apply arrives."

Dusapnya hair of the princess, then the grandfather of one grandson hugged his daughter.

"Come', I'm sorry Opu if impressed to force you. Opu ndak want you to get a sneer also a humiliation for not having a husband. Opu also did not want, Kenzie got bully from his friends because he did not have a father. Opu wants you to be happy, son."

"Thank you, Opu. Again, please forgive Fey."

Fey inched to sit next to his father, then hugged him tightly.

...

Three days after the incident, Fey asked her father to arrange a time to meet the man who would become her future husband.

At night, after the time, the awaited ones finally arrived.

A white Honda Jazz car arrived in Fey's yard, not long after the car's engine was turned off, down a tall man with a rather thin body.

The fat-haired man, with a thin mustache and a little beard, smiled at the two Fey parents who were standing up to greet him.

"Assalamualaikum, Opu and Mama."

Kissing the back of Andi's hand was also Khadijah, then he gave the bag he carried to the future mother-in-law. The bag contains souvenirs, in the form of cakes and snacks.

"Waalaikumsalam, Nak Rio. Come on, son please come in!"

Politely, the mature man entered the house and sat on the living room sofa.

"See, Opu call Fey first."

Five minutes later, Andi was back with her daughter.

"Son, it's Rio."

Rio stood up and greeted Fey.

"Feylin."

"Rul."

"Please talk, Opu wants to pray first."

Fey and Rio nodded.

"Fey, I'm sorry if my arrival is disturbing."

"It's okay, brother. So when did Rio come to propose? Just decide the time! Any time, I'm ready."

Rio was surprised to get a question that impressed to the point, but his attitude remained calm and jaim.

"When we're ready, I don't want to be impressed."

"We decide when, when can we?"

"Okay, then. God willing, next week?"

"Iye', talk to Opu later."

"Iye's'."

A few moments later, Andi returned to the living room. Fey was more silent and listened to the chatter of the two men in front of him. They are not interested in what they are doing.

The time showed at 23:30, Rio said goodbye.

The white Honda Jazz car driven by Rio slowly left Fey's house, but while at the end of the road, it was intercepted by a matic motorbike. The man who was riding the motorcycle came down, and knocked on the windshield.

Rio lowered the windshield, the man in the black jacket who stopped his car spoke, "can we talk for a minute?!"

"Who are we?"

"After speaking, you'll know who I am."

Rio was flamboyant and hesitant, although he believed the man who intercepted him was not a robber, but still he felt anxious and had to be vigilant, he said, because the man before him was a stranger he did not know.

"Don't think too long, where can we talk?"

"Eh, yes. Let's talk at the Solattang cafe, two hundred yards from here, left of the road. We meet there!"

"I'm sorry, I asked you for your SIM, ID card and STNK. For assurance that you won't run."

Rio shook his head, and after a moment of thought, he complied with the request of the foreign man standing next to his car.

The tall man who was still mysterious, passed by riding his motorbike.

The two arrived at their intended place, Rio sat on the chair that was on the cafe terrace.

The mysterious man opened his jacket and helmet. Then sit in front of Rio.

"I'm sorry if my attitude made you feel unsafe and uncomfortable, this is what I returned," said the man, while giving Rio's SIM, ID card and STNK.

"Who are we? What's the matter, we're stopping my car?"

"Consider your intention to propose to Feylin!"

Rio scrunched his forehead, "why?"

"I beg you, undo your intention!"

"It's not that easy, I can't possibly cancel the application. Time is set."

"But Feylin doesn't love you."

"Well, you think I love her? I just feel bad for Opu who has helped me a lot. It's appropriate that I repay his services."

"That doesn't mean it's hard for you to cancel everything?"

"If I could, I'd refuse this match."

The mysterious man sitting before Rio, shifted his chair to the side.

She spoke seriously to Fey's future husband, Rio, and understood what the foreign man beside her was saying.

Half an hour later, the two separated, having previously exchanged mobile phone numbers.

***

The next day, ba'da maghrib, Rio came back to Fey's house. He was going to meet his future father-in-law, to talk about last night's events.

Andi was surprised, surprised not to play because there was someone who tried to thwart his daughter's wedding plans.

After a while they talked seriously, Andi went inside her room to change clothes. Then he said goodbye to his wife and son.

"Opu leave for a while, there's the same business as Rio."

Khadijah and Fey nodded at the same time, both kissing the back of Andi's hand.

Rio said goodbye to his future father-in-law and his future wife, then got into the car with Andi.

But the next part, the answer is there.
