The Beautiful Man of Zahra
Meet Candidate-in-Law
On the balcony of a fairly luxurious apartment in Jakarta looks Robby who is drinking a glass of wine while bowing lethargic. There was a hint of sadness on his face, as he recalled the incident yesterday afternoon when he saw Zahra being picked up by Lu Chen. Although he actually knew gradually it would happen too, because after all Zahra was Lu Chen's lover unlike himself who was only a friend to Zahra.
But somehow it hurts so much to see Zahra with another man, he tries to forget it but Robby is always awake at night his eyes are very heavy to rest. Al results he can only vent his disappointment by drinking hard as usual.
Not long heard the notification on Robby's phone, and once he saw it turned out to be a message from Zahra.

It felt like he ignored the message because the disappointment was too big but he could not let alone the message came from Zahra.

Once again forgive me Robby, I promise you another time we'll meet again to take a picture together.
Zahra gave Robby a smile sign that she was very sorry. Again Robby who can not ignore Zahra also chose to reply to Zahra's message as if he did not mind all that, when in fact he had come to the Cafe appointed by Zahra. But what happens he must witness that Zahra is picked up by someone else who is not himself.

It’s ok Zahra.
A smile symbol completes Robby's final message to Zahra that morning. And after sending a message with Zahra Robby went back to drinking his drink and drank it up without remaining and then refill the empty glass in his hand. It seems Robby wants to spend his time drinking the illicit drink to the point of being drunk.

That morning Ms. Mirna was busy with her cleaning tools and she swept and mopped her house clean until it was shiny just like washing dishes, understandably because from the first he was very fond of cleaning so that he would not let a little dirt that can stick to the clean floor, including not hesitate to scold the person who did it no exception beloved husband who hobbies snacking that.
Mr. Sulam always made Ms. Mirna ride black because often caught snacking and left the rest of her crumbs on the clean floor of hers.
When he was focusing on mopping the TV room. Suddenly, the doorbell rang…
Tong Ting!
“Duh, who this morning disrupted my cleaning activities?.” Groused Bu Mirna when he heard the doorbell.
Ms. Mirna immediately stopped her cleaning and went to open the door. When the door opened suddenly, Ms. Mirna's heart was like it was about to jump from its buffer…
DEG
Instantly he also closed the door of his house in a condition of holding the control of the heart that beats unbecoming. When his silent petrified self came Mr. Sulam who was amazed by the behavior of his wife.
“Bu!. What's up?. How quiet is it?.” Surprised Mr. Sulam who tried to resuscitate his wife from daydreams.
“Pak, said that Mom is still in the world right?. Still alive?.” Ask Bu Mirna who made Pak Sulam more astonished.
“Heh Ma!. If Mom dies means Dad also dong?.” Replied Mr. Sulam who finally made the daydreams of Bu Mirna scatter.
“Lantas it really is in front of Mom like looking at an angel, Dad?.” Miss Mirna said she still couldn't believe what she saw. Immediately Mr. Sulam opened the door and made sure for himself what his wife saw.
“Excuse me, Mom and Dad what does His Zahra exist?.” The question from Lu Chen which instead left the two Zahra elders speechless and only replied with a nod.
“Then what can I enter meet with Zahra?.” Lu Chen asked Bu Mirna and Pak Sulam again only answered with a nod and a still cool face was amazed with the charming look of Lu Chen.
Without any hesitation, Lu Chen grabbed the door handle and entered Zahra's house without being invited back.
Bu Mirna immediately invited Lu Chen to sit in her living room. And hurried off to find Zahra in her room.
“Zahra!.” Call Miss Mirna to her son, she searches for Zahra's unseen whereabouts in her room. But Zahra's whereabouts never found, until Zahra suddenly appeared behind Bu Mirna who suddenly made the heart of Bu Mirna almost dislodged.
“Yeah of Zahra!. Tell dong if it's in the back!. Mom to surprise!.” Strangled Miss Mirna while stroking her chest.
“Again, what is Zahra looking for?. Where's the rush?. What's the matter?.” Zahra asked who was curious about her mother's attitude.
“It.... that... there is an angel who nyari you!.” Said Miss Mirna who immediately made Zahra so afraid.
“Jesus Mom!. Zahra is alive!. Not to die yet!. What is nyariin angel Zahra?.” Replied Zahra who suddenly had his hair goosebumps.
“Hadeuhh no!. I mean there's a guy like an angel who wants to see you.” Said Miss Mirna who finally made Zahra even more curious and rushed towards the living room to see her.
Arriving in the living room he saw Lu Chen his sweetheart had been sitting sweetly in front of his father's Embroidery Master. Zahra was immediately seen looking at Lu Chen who kept the promise to accompany her all day. Zahra then approached Lu Chen and introduced Lu Chen to his two parents. However just as he wanted to introduce Lu Chen to be stopped by Lu Chen immediately, Lu Chen himself finally chose to introduce himself to Bu Mirna and Mister Sulam.
“Ehem!. My name is Jason Lu, call me Lu. I am Zahra's lover.” Lu Chen also grabbed the hands of Mr. Sulam and Bu Mirna as a sign of his hospitality. And do not forget Lu Chen also gave some hands that he had prepared to visit the home of his future father-in-law.
Mr. Sulam and Bu Mirna who were very surprised by Lu Chen who claimed his son's lover was immediately very happy finally his son had a heart patch as well, moreover, the moorings of his heart were simply as incredible as Lu Chen. And when viewed from the appearance was very visible that Lu Chen was not an ordinary people like them.
Finally, Sulam started a conversation with some personal questions to Lu Chen.
“What is your job?.” Simple questions that are always asked by parents to ensure the safety of their future son-in-law.
“I am an artist.” Lu Chen replied with a beautiful smile interspersed that still made Bu Mirna unable to blink. Bu Mirna is a fan of handsome guys like the cast in Meteor Garden from China who he watched when he was young.
“Oh artist yes?. Looks like I've seen you before but where is it?.” Said Bu Mirna who felt Lu Chen's face was familiar to her.
“But actually also Father has also seen you. I. it was in a Chinese award you've seen what's really you?.” Guess Mr. Sulam who is very sure that Lu Chen is a famous idol that he saw on TV.
“What's in that XXX award?. Yes it is true it is me, but there I use the name Lu Chen as a stage name.” Replied Lu Chen who did not want to keep anything secret from Zahra's parents that he was a famous idol who was on the rise in China.
“OMG!. Ma!. The Porcelain China?.” Rounding his eyes at Bu Mirna his wife who still does not believe in the fact that her son is dating a famous idol.
Immediately Mr. Sulam changed his attitude to be a little haughty before Lu Chen as if he disagreed with Zahra and Lu Chen's relationship.
“Ehem! Actually, it is not that you do not approve of your relationship with your daughter. But one thing you will ask, are you serious about Zahra?. Because if you are not serious with him then just end your relationship right now with him!. Because you don't want your son to be played!.” Asked Mr. Sulam who wanted to see Lu Chen's seriousness towards his daughter Zahra.
“Of course I love Zahra very much with all my heart and I will take care of her and will never waste her. Because Zahra is the first woman and will be my last woman later.” Lu Chen's words immediately made Zahra become touched by him as well as Bu Mirna and Pak Sulam.
But it still does not make Mr. Sulam change his attitude. Sulam continued to ask Lu Chen about his seriousness.
“Does your family agree with your relationship?. Because I'm sure you're not an ordinary person like us.” Ask Mr. Sulam who is right on target.
But it did not make Lu Chen tremble, he again smiled kindly to Mr. Sulam.
“Maybe at the moment they haven't approved it because honestly I haven't introduced Zahra to them. But with their blessing I will still choose Zahra as my partner. Because I was used to living independently from a long time ago, everything I have today is thanks to my own struggle without the slightest help from my parents. So Father and Mother do not have to worry about it.” Lu Chen's reply again left Zahra's parents flabbergasted, because to them Lu Chen was an extremely courageous and determined man whose stance might already be rare to find in this part of the world. They did not expect and were moved by Zahra who managed to get a man like Lu Chen.
