The Journey of Jinan

Chapters. 45

From the beginning Rico sat his body on the dining table until all the food on the table was not left, he never once took his eyes off Ardo. At that time Rico clearly showed an unhappy face to Ardo in front of everyone. Especially now that Ardo was sitting right next to Jinan. That obviously adds to Rico's annoyance. I don't know what makes that guy dislike Ardo, only he knows that.

Rico's attitude towards Ardo makes the atmosphere that was once warmed by smiles and laughter, now become awkward at once. When Marco kicked Rico's leg and stared intently at his son, Rico looked down at his food. If it wasn't for Jinan and his parents, it was possible that Riko had already fought with Ardo.

"Oh yes Jinan, are you ready to go back to Indonesia?" ask Ira.

"God willing, Ma" replied Jinan. 

"Two with your son?" marco disagreed.

"No, Pa. I go with Ardo" Jinan chirped involuntarily.

Everyone other than Marco and Ira who were at the dining table looked in surprise at Jinan, while to Rico himself, the man was not surprised anymore, but very and very surprised when Jinan said he would go with Ardo and Rico was also surprised when the woman called Ardo name so casually. Isn't it all this time that Jinan looks indifferent with Ardo, he thought.

Jinan looked puzzled by the surprised faces of Ardo, Rico, and Elena.

"Why are they looking at me like that?" inner Jinan.

"With me?" ardo asked with a slight whisper to Jinan.

Jinan frowned as he looked at Ardo who spoke almost without a sound. What does he mean, that's how he thinks.

A second later ... "Wait, haven't I told anyone that I allowed Ardo to come with me to Indo?" jinan was surprised. Jinan widened her eyes as she began to become aware of what she had said two minutes ago.

Jinan's eyes ran around, he looked panicked at his own words.

"Em, ma ... ma .. I mean, ak–"

"Yes, Mrs. Jinan will go with me" Ardo said suddenly.

At the sight of Jinan's panicked look, Ardo begins to understand if the woman is speaking wrongly. But because he who really wanted to accompany Jinan back to Indo, with pleasure and without a second thought, he finally agreed with Jinan's words. Let's just say luck is on his side.

Jinan looked surprised at Ardo. "This man ...," inwardly.

Jinan could not continue his words. On the one hand Jinan did want Ardo to accompany him because he was also confused who he wanted to go with. Honestly, Jinan is actually also afraid of traveling far if only alone with his toddler son. But on the other hand, he was also very ashamed of his words. 

"You want to go to Indonesia, Ar?" ask Marco wonder.

"Yes, sir."

"Is there a new business there?" ask Marco. 

"No sir, I just want to take Jinan home. Because it is impossible if Jinan comes home alone with a baby. Germany - Indo is very far away, he will be very troubled during the trip."

Ira and Marco nodded their heads in agreement with what Ardo said. It should be, they thought. As well as Elena, he would be one hundred percent sure to agree with that. The other is with Rico. He who heard that Jinan was going with Ardo obviously did not like it.

"Why did Jinan come home with this guy?" inner Rico was upset. "After all, since when was Jinan close to this man? Shit, it turns out I lost fast with this guy."

"So, when are you going?" ask Ira.

"The plan is in a week, Ma. Because in two days, Jinan wants to have a farewell with the restaurant's kids."

"Your restaurant is sold?" ask Marco. 

"Already, Pa."

"A fast. Who bought it?" ask Marco

"Em, Ardo, Pa" Jinan replied.

Everyone at the dining table was currently staring at Ardo except Elena, as the woman was currently getting busy with her smartphone.

"You bought that restaurant, Ar?" marco asked in disbelief.

"Yes, Mr. Marco. I bought Jinan's restaurant."

Jinan looked in wonder at Ardo, he forgot Ria's saying that the man was Turkish and would return to his home country soon. Then why did he buy this restaurant, Jinan thought.

"I just want to help, sir. After all, if I were to marry Jinan later, the restaurant would still belong to Jinan. It was also if Jinan still wanted to stay in Germany."

Everyone at the dinner table was shocked by Ardo's words, as were Jinan and Elena who were playing with her phone. Elena

"Married? What does Ardo mean?" marco asked in shock.

"Em, no .. no, Pa. Ardo ... Ardo just wanted to talk. Mu .. maybe that means, if I get married again later and return to Germany, I can buy the restaurant to him for the same price," Jinan said as he swallowed his saliva.

When Marco wanted to say, Ardo interrupted him first.

"I don't just speak, sir. I really love Jinan." Jinan widened his eyes in disbelief of Ardo's words. "And I want to marry her. We are now starting an approach. Just pray that everything goes well."

It felt like the oxygen around Jinan had begun to thin when he heard all Ardo's words.

Wh why?

Because happy?

No!

But shame!

Jinan. Women who rarely or may not even have been in contact with a man other than Romi, obviously feel embarrassed by this kind of simple thing. Things he never felt before.

"What the hell is this man, why is he talking that is not-not in front of them," Jinan said with his pale face.

Marco and Ira, who heard this, did not believe Ardo's words. They even blinked their eyes a few times, hoping that none of this was a dream.

Ardo's. The great man Marco accidentally knew for working with his former boss Ardo, could love a simple woman like Jinan. A beautiful woman, salihah, soft, even almost never showed her anger.

Elena who was sitting in the front seat beside Ardo smiled happily to hear all of Ardo's words to his parents.

"It turns out this guy is cool too," Elena said.

Another thing with all of them, a man sitting opposite Elena now seemed to clench his hands tightly. The reddish color due to the extremely strong fist proved that the man was ready to hit something in front of him.

Traang !!!

The clink of a spoon and a very strong bell plate made everything on the dining table jump in shock. They all stared at Rico who was the mastermind of the noise.

"What the fuck are you," Marco shouted at Rico.

Yes, Marco is still emotional with his son that one. Especially since the bad events that happened to Jinan a few days ago, Rico increasingly act up and make Marco inexhaustible with his eldest son.

"Sorry, Pa. I forgot that there was an appointment with my friend" Rico said with restraint.

Before his emotions exploded again, he quickly passed from there regardless of the shouting from his parents who kept calling out to him.
