Skylar And The Lecturer

23

"I'm here with my son, Ririn!"

Teon who was enjoying his drink kept choking after hearing the name called.

Slowly, Teon rolled his eyeballs towards the woman his friend Mother was referring to.

Damnit damnit!

Teon cursed restrained, he was now completely caught in a difficult situation making the man quickly rack his brain to escape from here.

It could be bad if I linger here, about so Teon's inner content after knowing the woman named Ririn well.

"Mother," Teon's great-grandson after the pair of mothers and children who had just joined were already seated.

Ririn's eyes widened in disbelief - she did not expect that her mother's friend was Teon's mother's ex-lover. He was really sorry because he always refused Teon's invitation to meet his mother.

"Why, son?" suhut Mother.

Teon racked his brain trying to find an excuse so he could get out of here before the conversation he feared was happening here.

"I just remembered that I had business with one of the students' guardians and that was very important" Teon said with a single breath.

"Mother Maya and Ririn just joined us, you're leaving?" ask Mommy.

Teon said, "i completely forgot and it was a very important affair so I really have to go."

"Are you going to see your girlfriend?" ririn chirps that made everyone shocked including Teon who was now only able to swallow.

Yes, he forgot that he had brought Skylar to attend the wedding of one of his friends the other day and there was also Ririn.

Teon shook his head slowly. "of course not, I will not interfere with my lover's rest. I'm going to go see a student guardian who needs my guidance as his teaching mentor."

Mother stared intently at the firstborn. "no, Teon. You must stay here until our dinner is over."

Teon could only sigh deeply, he really did not want to argue with Mother but he also did not want to be in this situation.

It sucks but he can't do much.

Seeing Teon who had resigned, Mother then shifted her attention to Mother Maya.

"so what about the old covenant we once made when children weren't born?"

Teon's eyebrows swooped in confusion, well what else is this?

"What does that mean, Mom?" ririn asked her mother.

"Earlier when you were both unborn we promised to match you if you were of different sexes," Mother Maya said, making Teon's eyes widened in shock.

"I resolutely rejected it," Teon said, looking at the three women in front of him. "I have good reason to refuse this matchmaking."

Mother stared intently at Teon demanding an explanation. "what do you mean?"

"I already have my own choices that I'm struggling with right now" Teon concluded.

...***...

"What's the matter?" Jeno asked innocently just after Teon entered her room.

"I think Mommy has started to go too far," his great-granddaughter while laying on Jeno's bed, ignoring the owner of the room who was busy playing the moba on his phone.?

"Yes Mommy wants to match brother with his friend's child?" teon said with eyes full of protest.

"The problem continues where to the extent that my brother said that Mother was outrageous?"

"The problem is, the woman you want to betrothed to me is Ririn, who broke my heart first" explained Teon.

Jemari Jeno then stopped her activities, staring at the brother in disbelief.

"this is serious, bang?"

"Abang has stated that the brother refused the match because he already had his own choice, but Mother was angry."

Jeno leaned her back against the back of her mattress, watching her brother massaging her temples.

The fate of her brother, she thought.

Though Teon was also young so he felt no need to rush to marry especially with women he did not love.

Jeno's pair of lewd thugs rolled to Teon. "then fight, bang. get the woman your brother loves and show Mother that your choice is much better. I'll help you from behind so that Mother cancels her wish, no matter what's on your mind until she does this."

Teon smiled bitterly, "then I did not expect that Mother would go this far."

"Abang needs to convince the woman of your choice first so that everything can go smoothly. I think the brother also needs to tell what happened between brother and Ririn first," suggested Jeno trying to be wise.

"I think you're right, but it must be in time to explain everything to Mother" Teon replied worriedly.

It's even now the thought of whether Mommy investigated Ririn's background first or not - Teon was afraid that Mommy would be disappointed if she knew the real facts about her choice of woman.

Jeno nodded in agreement. "yes, if now let Mommy take time for herself. Mommy must be disappointed by the blatant rejection that brother said but focus on gaining the trust of the woman of your choice first."

Now Teon's forehead seems tangled because of the many thoughts that are raging in his brain but of course he should not be missteps. Obviously he had to make Skylar believe in himself and make a girl as beautiful as the mythological goddess fall in love with him even though he was sure there would be many sacrifices to melt the girl's heart.

"Pray that I can convince the beautiful woman to drop her heart only on me" Teon said expectantly.

...***...

Skylar sitting cross-legged on a gray fur carpet befriended the silence of the night while moving his fingers so agilely on his laptop keyboard.

Yeah, what else is he doing if not a job? Recently Teon has gone crazy, giving her more tasks than usual to give the girl a headache.

"Damn, it's almost midnight now" Skylar murmured as he peeked at the clock in the left corner of his laptop screen.

"Why is the world of my studies so heavy, Lord? why can't I feel the pleasure of a casual lecture like the kids at other faculties?" the girl complained while massaging her neck which felt very sore because it had been sitting in front of the laptop for hours.

Feeling that the task is almost complete, Skylar hastily stored the results of his work in a special file so as not to be lost.

With the look of his tired eyes he also did not forget to put his laptop back in its original place.

His steps went straight to the mattress, laying down so deliciously after all the tasks with the deadline that he had managed to do without a lack of anything.

"Lord, one day please give me a loving husband who can and will accept all of my cage without complaining" Skylar said solemnly as she closed her eyes preparing to head to dreamland.

The poor girl was really tired of everything, tortured by the tight task and the schedule of college is not trivial.

Only Papa, the loving man who has always been faithful gives the best support to him.

"Find me immediately with your chosen man, Lord."
