The Hidden Love

Prospective In-laws

Love swallowed his saliva. His throat seemed to be choked until not a single word was spoken from his thin lips.

To be honest, deep down he was so happy even more so when the proposal came from the man he had been idolizing since adolescence. However, he felt that there was something strange there. No wind, no rain. Love never felt any signs of love from his superiors, so why did the man suddenly come and ask him to get married?

"I'm seriously Love!" Sultan Tegas.

"But ... Mr ... I guess ..." Love cursed her who suddenly spoke unclear.

"I want to make you my wife, do I need that sentence to be clear again?"

"Not that, I mean ... We don't love each other" Love ventured to say that.

"Who said? Love will present itself with our togetherness. Perhaps you are still confused by my sudden invitation, I will give you time to think. Just one day" William said.

"Everyday Sir?"

"Yes. You should've made your decision, the day after tomorrow. I won't force you, but I'll beg you to accept my proposal" William said, steady.

"Good Sir. I'll think about it."

"Take your food, after this I'll take you home."

"No need, sir. I can still take a taxi online, it just so happens not too late," reject Love, smooth.

"And I forced. After all I also want to get acquainted with my future in-laws."

The blush!

Love immediately turned her face away. He was sure once, at this moment his face was already very reddened.

Dinner went well too. As promised, William will take Love home. Now the two are in the car with Love holding the package of food that William gave as souvenirs.

"Well, every time you go home and work, you take the bus?"

"Yes." Yeah."

"How many brothers are you?" William asked again trying to get more familiar.

"I'm an only child, my father died when I was in Junior High."

"Hm, then at home you live with anyone?"

"My mother" replied Love.

"You're just two of us." Love nodded, allowing.

"Hm, fine then. Later if for example we become married, invite your mother to live with us." Whether consciously or not, William suddenly said so.

Love is flying above the clouds. The girl did not expect at all if the man she dreamed so much for a long time wanted to have a serious relationship with her.

William parked his car in the front yard of a simple house. The house was not very spacious, but very comfortable and beautiful. Love knocked on the door, then not long after the door was opened along with the appearance of a middle-aged woman who wore a scarf around her neck.

"Love, come home once a night, son," Tania said.

"Sorry Mom, I asked her to come by for a little dinner" William replied.

"Oh, so. Nak ... What's yourname?"

"William, Mom." The handsome man welcomed Tania's hand and kissed her respectfully.

"Thus ... Son William is the boss as well as a man who is often told the love of the same Mother?" The woman looked at her daughter, making Love flutter.

"Yes, Mom."

"Let's go in, son."

All three were sitting on old wooden benches, but still worth wearing. "Love for tea first, ma'am" said the girl.

"Not to Love! You just sit here!" William's Order.

With great force finally love lands her ass near Tania. His chest pounded when he saw William's reaction.

"So, ma'am, my arrival here is to get to know Mom. I intend to propose to Mother's daughter" said William, seriously.

"What?" Tania is surprised not to play, she and her daughter often talk about William. Of course with the Love story that so admires the man, but he did not expect if William also had the same feelings as Love felt.

William is a successful young businessman, besides he is handsome and also rich, there will be many women who are crazy about him, he said, and William could easily get a woman who was even more than Love.

"Is William serious?"

"Yes, Mom, I'm very serious. I talked about this with Love, and I think I need to give him time to think" William said.

"Is that so, Love?" Tania made sure, and Love nodded in response.

"What about your own mother? Will you bless us?" William asked.

"As a parent, Mom will give you my blessing, but coming back, all the decisions remain Mom leaves completely to Love because she will live it."

"But please, son. Love's just an ordinary girl, she's not like most girls out there, I'm afraid she can't be what Nak William's parents expect."

"On that matter, Mother was calm, I had told my parents in advance and my family agreed. My parents are very democratic people, they free their children to make decisions as long as we can hold them accountable" William said at length.

"Thank God then."

"Yes, Mom, it's night. Excuse me first."

"All right."

"My family and I will come to propose soon if Cinta decides to accept my proposal."

"Yes. Thank ye. Be careful on the road, yes," Tania's message.

"Yes ma'am, I'm sorry." William again grabbed Tania's fingers and kissed the back of her hand a second time.

Love and Tania drive William away until the man's car vanishes at the end of the alley.

"As you often say, son. Turns out he was very nice. Friendly, courteous, rarely now were there young people who still had such good manners," Tania joked as soon as the two returned to the house.

"He did live with a hard upbringing, Mom, listen to Grandpa and his Grandpa retired army. Everything in his life must also be in order."

"Hm, he deserves to be very good at behaving to others. How then?"

"How's what?" Love knitted both eyebrows, confused.

"Don't pretend! About her proposal," tell Tania.

"I think about it, Mom, I don't want to make a decision. He's my dream man, but still I have to convince myself."

"Good! Whatever your decision will be, I will still support you. My blessing is always with you."

"Thank you, Mom."

Two women from different generations embraced each other.

On the other side of the Earth is different.

William entered his home. A real tiredness was seen on his face. The tie that had come off, the sleeves of the shirt rolled up to the elbows, as well as the top two buttons of his shirt had been opened.

"Good night everyone," he said as he passed through the living room. The place where his family gathers.

"That's the night, dear," said Hanum.

"Yes Ma, just happened to stop by for a while, there's a need." After greeting the parents, William sat on a single sofa. "Willmar where?"

"He's getting ready in his room."

"For?"

"Tomorrow early in the morning he must have flown to Singapore, there was a sudden job there he said."

"Ooh." William beroh ria.

"How, Brother, have you expressed your intentions to the girl?" Ask Sultan.

"It's Pa."

"Then what was the response," curious, Arya spoke up.

"He needs time to think" William said.

"Yeah ..." Arya's frown, disappointed look perched on both beads of her eyes.

"Just a day, Opa. The day after tomorrow he'll give you an answer."

"What answer?" Willmar appeared and immediately sat in the middle between Arya and Ratih.

"My application, accepted or not."

"Well, it's worth it to come home late" Willmar said.

"Yes, I just got home from home."

"Cie ... The one who had met the prospective in-laws," Willmar teased, making William blush.

"Cie ... Who wants a proposal, "William is flirting.

"And I'm out, brother."

"Oh, yes!" William slapped his forehead.
