Ray's happy smile is clearly seen by Akong Xu who gives a code to Akong Xu's personal staff to prepare items that are appropriate and best for the Xu family's proposal to the Magnolia family girl.
In the Carnation housing, Tangerang City.
Eve's family already knew the grand plan and they also prepared everything that was best to welcome the arrival of their important guests on the early autumn day of the same year.
Eve was already decorated as beautiful as possible suitable to display the characteristics of a pious girl, who, elegant and graceful so that the Xu family could judge Eve as a kind-good girl who deserved to be a new member of their family.
Right at the hour that had been determined by the prospective bridegroom, then the entourage of the members of the Xu family came with a number of offerings or dowry to the Magnolia family for Eve.
"Well, what does it mean to come from Mr. Xu to our house ? " Ask from the oldest member of the Magnolia family to the Xu family side.
" We would like to ask the daughter of the Magnolia family to become our new member as our son-in-law's future granddaughter-in-law to our youngest grandson named Raymond Gilberto Xu." Akong Xu replied in fluent Indonesian because he used to come from the city of Medan , Sumut.
" Alright if it's really the Xu family's goodwill that it's really sincere to ask our daughter for your youngest grandchild, go ahead. But before that I as his great Uncle Eve want to tell you all the shortcomings that Eve must know so that your family will not regret later by asking Eve as your future daughter-in-law's grandson." Said his Great Uncle Eve representing Mama Nabila to talk to Akong Xu.

" From this moment on and today you're banned from being close to any man other than Ray because you started this second and today is tied to Ray for the rest of your life and call us both these by the call of Akong Xu and Ahma Xu."Akong Xu said softly but firmly to Eve.
" Yes, Akong Xu." Answer Eve obediently.
" Now, it's the Magnolia family's turn that should give this sign of bonding to our Ray." Akong Xu said that calling Ray to come in front of Mama Nabila after Eve re-entered the room for their tradition for the bride-to-be is prohibited from meeting each other face before both sides of the family formalize the relationship of both.
Ray also wears a diamond necklace with a pendulum engraving the name Evelyn Esterlita from Mama Nabila who wears it around his neck Ray then Ray calls Mama Nabila as Mama.
" Hey.."Sapa Ray was nervous.
" Hey too." Say hello to Evelyn with a firm tone.
"How do you feel today after our two families know each other officially like this?" Ray asked a very obvious tone to feel unable to express at all with a good word about the enormous happiness for him.
"Flame and happy" Eve replied smiling and understanding the voice that was vibrating out of Ray's mouth." How are you yourself? " Take back Eve who looked nervous as well with that unique guy in front of her.
"Together I am much more confused and happy but I am very determined to build our relationship that is much more stable." Ray replied in a tone this time very firmly to Eve.
"Then when are your plans to bring Eve to Osaka, Japan to hold your blessing and wedding day there for the first and for the second we will have a party in Jakarta ,Indonesia ?" Akong Xu asked looking at Ray.
"Ray wants to hold a prewed first on the island of Bali which is held in March next year which is after Ray graduated from Ray's college here."Ray replies that Eve will be leaving her family for some time if she approves of Akong Xu's proposal to get married in the same year in December.

"Well, Ray.Akong wait in March next year for the two of you to finish Prewed and for June next year Akong wait in Osaka city for the two of you to finish your blessing and marriage there." Akong Xu said that he could not give Ray any longer to bring Eve into the Xu family home.
" Yes,Akong. Ray will try quickly and according to the expectations and targets that Akong gave Ray." Ray said a firm tone to Akong Xu.
"But , Eve already had to stay with you at your home in Jakarta because Evelyn we have asked officially to be your future wife and she has to start learning pre-marital procedures and go into the Xu family." Ahma Xu said that it was more firmly in the tradition of their family.
"Emmm, um, alright Ahma if Eve is in need for today also enter my house in Jakarta.Then I will take care of it for Ahma can calm down and wait for the best news from us in Jakarta for Ahma and Akong in Osaka." Said Ray who understood what Grandpa and Grandma meant.
Eve looked shocked because that day she had to come with Ray and separated from her mother and her sisters as well. He was quick to look at Ray asking for the right and right explanation for him.
Ray who knew Eve's feelings instead looked at Mama Nabila who sighed and spoke to Eve in a voice that meant Eve to follow Ray home Eve.
" Eve's..Listen Mama. You are an adult and you have to live independently..Join your prospective husband's family to study marriage directly from Ray who is entitled to your life starting today but you can still go home and meet your mother and sisters and your sister whenever you want to ask Ray's permission first." Said Mama Nabila who turned out to have agreed with Ray for the good of Eve in the eyes of her family Ray who had officially regarded Eve as their daughter-in-law.
"Ahh..?!"
" Prepare the rest of your belongings from your room for you to bring home Ray," said his Great Uncle also a tone that can not be bargained again by Eve.
"But..?!"
" No words but, Eve. Do it for Mama and our family and your good name in the future with Ray's family." Said Mama Nabila with a glare of firm soft eyes.
" I..Yes Ma.." Eve replied obediently but there was sadness in her heart. He was still confused by the rules in the Xu family, but he had to do what his mother asked him to come home to Ray.
Ray waits patiently for Eve at the door of his parked sports car lined up neatly in front of the alley along with his entourage of cool big family cars except for Mama Jenny and the Wildan family whose house is near or the term is still close to Eve's house.
"Bye bye, Ma..!" Eve said before getting into Ray's car that was open to her.
" Yes, Eve..Take good care of yourself and learn to be a future wife, mother and daughter-in-law and future granddaughter-in-law and good sister-in-law in Ray's family." Mama Nabila's message to Eve with two kisses on both cheeks Eve as a prayer and Mama Nabila's blessing to Eve.
" Keep Eve well, is she Brother Ray ?" Ziko's message to Ray.
" Yes, Ziko." Ray replied smiling.
Then the cars of the Xu family drove one by one out of the alley to the gate out of the Carnation housing and disappeared from the eyes of family members and relatives Eve.
