The Horizon Boundaries

Ch.42 The Ken Family Part 2

Maisa dries her hair with a towel. The bath towel was still wrapped in his body. The sound of knocking on the door stopped all his activity. Maybe Ken's knocking on the door. He hurriedly put on the clothes the man had given him last night. A dusty pink short-sleeved knee-length dres. Walk towards the door while combing her hair by hand.

There was a middle-aged man and woman standing there. Both of them smiled warmly at him. Maisa looked at the two questioningly.

Ken walked out of the room next to him. There was anxiety emanating from the look on his face. Three pairs of eyes looked at him in wonder. Instantly, his face immediately turned shocked. He smiled wryly.

"To Ken! Did something happen?" Maisa opened her voice in the silence.

Ken scratched his hair that was not itchy. It looks awkward, not as usual. The middle-aged woman approached, pulling her ear.

"How dare you, yes! Instead of welcoming us, he ran away with someone's child!"

Ken groaned in pain, trying to remove the jewel from his ear. An additional pinch floated in his hand.

"Okay, Ma! Sorry, Ma! My ears can break" cried Ken.

Middle-aged women who are none other than Ken's mother even add a portion of jeweran. Ken begged his mother for forgiveness, asking to be let go.

Shocked and shocked mixed implied in the look of Maisa's eyes. He didn't expect Ken's parents to knock on the door. Then this middle-aged man who was still standing before him was Ken's father.

"I'm sorry we made such a big fuss this early, son," said Mr. Brian, Ken's father in a heavy and authoritative tone.

"Oh! It's okay, sir."

Maisa smiled faintly, nodding her head in salute. There was a bit of awkward standing in the middle of the Ken family.

A restaurant with an outdor concept. There is a swimming pool at the restaurant. The shrubs run along the roof of the balcony of the three-story building. Palm trees on the edge of the pond. Across there was a garden filled with green grass with pine trees dominating.

This is Maisa now. Sitting in a family reunion that you could say there is no blue. It felt like Maisa wanted to pin Ken's head on right now. It was as if dragging him to a family reunion. He is not mentally ready.

Almost an hour Ms. Artika nagged at length on Ken. The man was just grinning, putting on an innocent face.

"Oh... Sa. Introduce this to my Mom and Dad. They just got here from Amsterdam. Pa, Ma, this is my girlfriend Maisa."

Maisa put on her sweet smile. "Hello, Sir, Ma. I'm Maisa. Sorry for the trouble."

"Already! Don't be so stiff. You can call us like Ken," Brian said in a stern tone.

Maisa gave a wry smile, turning towards Ken. The man returned his smile. His hand held the girl's fingers behind the table. Mr. Brian and Ms. Artika smiled kindly at him. He replied with an awkward smile.

Maisa tried to pull her hand. Ken even tightened his hand. The girl blinked her eyes at the hand, her eyebrows went up and down, gesturing for Ken to release his hand.

Ken pretended not to see it. Maisa felt a little annoyed mixed with anxiety. It's not good to hold hands in front of Ken's parents, even if it's stealthy.

Mr. Brian and Ms. Artika noticed the interaction of the two. Maisa's face that was fickle, panicked and then calm, turned again to be upset. Ken who was acting calm, occasionally glanced at the girl beside him.

"So when will you formalize your relationship in public" said Ms. Artika looks pleased with the progress of her son.

Uhuk! Maisa chokes on her drink. His hand grabbed the tissue in front of him. Ken patted his back.

"If you can get engaged immediately. Before Ken we change our minds. Please, dear" Ms. Artika added. She hugged her husband's arm.

Brian nodded in agreement with his wife. Maisa only gap between believing and not. He didn't hear wrong. Her ears are still functioning normally.

Miss Artika ignored Ken. He held Maisa's hand. "If Ken makes you cry, tell me right away! Let the boy teach me a lesson."

"You can complain to me too, son!" Brian added as well.

Maisa nodded slowly with a faint smile on her face. Ken glared at his father and his mother. On the other hand he was also glad they liked Maisa.

Maisa feels powerless after parting ways with Ken's parents. He promised to eat with them again. He was sitting on a beach chair near the pool.

Ken sat next to him. His hand stroked the girl's hair gently. "Sorry, yes! I didn't expect Papa and Mama to find us here."

Maisa looked up at Ken fixedly. "Don't tell me we came all the way here just to avoid your Papa and your Mama."

Ken shifted his eyes. Maisa is worried about her attitude. He confirmed his sitting position.

"When I have no problem meeting them, you tell me first. Let me get ready first."

"But you're beautiful."

Maisa squinted her eyes, still faithfully staring at Ken's pus, asking for an explanation. Lips frowning. Ken can't stand being stared at like that.

"All right! I surrender! They always wanted to know who was close to me. So I felt uncomfortable and I ended up never being close to anyone, except you."

"And Alice."

"Ah... Yes, Alice!"

Huh! A second later Ken realized his words just now. He looked at the girl's eyes. Maisa threw away face.

"Kok is Alice. My mom and dad knew I didn't like it, so they weren't interested."

Maisa just shut up. Ken touched his shoulder.

"You angry, Sa?"

The phone rang from Ken's pocket. Kio's name was plastered there. Ken growled in annoyance. What else does the boy want.

Whoa, Ken. Turn people's children. It's good to take it everywhere as good as you can! Take him home now! No, just drop off to campus, "Kio's running hard from the other end of the phone.

Ken keeps the phone away from the ear. His lips muttered cursing, spilling his irritation.

"Yes! Aye! Don'worry. I didn't do anything to her. The sister complex." Ken hung up the phone in annoyance.

"What is that from Ka Kio?"

Ken was disappointed. He wanted to linger with Maisa. But he was afraid of getting Maisa into trouble later.

"Yeah, we're back. Your leg still hurts, right? I'm holding it again, yeah."

Maisa chuckled, her cheeks dabbling red. At first he wanted to be angry, but he saw Ken so attentive to him. "no need. I can walk by myself."

Even though Maisa said so, Ken still divides it to the car park. Along the way, Maisa fell asleep beside her. Ken drove his car into traffic at a normal speed. He didn't want to scare the girl like yesterday. Although he did not know the reason, one day he hoped that the girl would open up to him.
