The Inappropriate Taste

Chapter 28 - Turns out to be familiar

Dimas was silent at Linda's words. His heart was broken and disappointed to hear the woman he loved had given up even though he had not met his mother.

"Lin, let's go meet Aunt Vani. As if to say goodbye to Aunt and Dimas' sister." Rahadi invites Linda to meet his wife, Vani who is currently in the room. Being persuaded by Divan to accept Linda even if it was just a futile act.

"There is no other woman you can marry other than a widow with two children! You can't find a woman who is alone. Your brain is 'clean, Dimas!!" 

Such was Vani's tantrum when Dimas expressed his desire to propose to Linda.

They had arrived in front of Vani's room. Rahadi knocked on the door of the room.

Not long after Divan came out. Linda looks familiar with Divan's face.

"Which mom, Van?" asked Dimas with his flat face.

"Inside, Bang." Look back. "Ma, look for Bang Dimas" said Divan.

Vani came out with a sour face. But when he saw Linda's face, how surprised he was.

"Kinan!" his yell.

"Aunt Vania." Linda was no less surprised than Vani.

"Mom knows?" asked Dimas who was a little confused but his heart was so happy to know his mother and Linda turned out to have known.

"He is Kinan. Mama's friend's son who often tells Mama, Dimas." Vani's previously sour face turned into a look of joy.

"But Mama said her name was Kinan. And she's Linda Kinan,,,,, uh." Dimas just realized something.

"Yes, Mama's first call to him was Kinan. Oh, my dear, aunty is very kangen." Vani immediately hugged Linda with a tight sabgat.

"I miss Auntie too."

"Yes, Aunt. Two years ago my parents had an accident and died."

"If aja Aunty knows that the one that has been liked by Dimas, you, surely Aunty will immediately agree to it."

"And Papa said, Ma. Meet first, do not rush to conclude," said Rahadi.

"So you know that Linda's the one Mama's been looking for?" ask Dimas.

"Or dong. Ever since you got out of this house, Papa told people to investigate you. The reason was just want to investigate people in Papa's office, but it turns out to want to deketin bini people. Papa's curious, so Papa finds out Linda's origin turns out to be your Mama's best friend's son." Rahadi explained.

"Why didn't Papa tell Dimas?"

"Yes Papa wants to see how you work. And Papa didn't tell Mama either, it's a punishment for you for lying."

Dimas could only scratch his head. Why could he forget that this papa was so good at reading situations? He also forgot that his papa really liked to play tricks on him.

In the family room.

"So the one that Aunty used to bring was still a child, Divan. Who's wetting a lot, isn't Auntie?" linda asked as she looked at Divan with a keen laugh.

"Udah dong, Ma'am. Don't nudge. Shame on me." Divan scratched the back of his head that was not itchy.

"Yes, I'm sorry." Linda is still laughing.

"So how? When are you getting married?" ask Rahadi.

"Ngapain tau, you're sure dong. There must be an effort to reap the rewards. Time all must be Papa. Own business dong, just can be proud to be the Bagaskara family."
