The Love of the Maharani

Wedding Gifts

"You're back" Welcome Mama Ira.

"We're done eating, Ma. Where's mama going? Tedi was looking for Mama. Looks like he's sick again. Her face was pale just now," Anna told me.

"Mama.." Mama Ira seemed to hold back her words for a moment.

Before he finally came back to say, "Mama there was some sudden business earlier. Tedi has improved. He seemed a bit exhausted. So I dropped."

"Thank God that Tedi has improved.."

And things went back to silence. There was only the sound of friction of wedding items being cleared by some people from the venue.

The silence could only be broken by the voice of Mama Ira a moment later.

"Daffa. Anna's. Let's go inside. There's something Mama wants to give you."

Afterwards Mama Ira turned around and entered the house, with Anna and Daffa trailing behind her.

***

Anna, Daffa and Mama Ira were already in the living room. The three sat in exactly the same position as on the night Daffa introduced himself to Mama Ira for the first time.

Daffa sat beside Anna, with Mama Ira sitting in front of the two. The difference is that Daffa now dares to hold Anna's hand.

Actually Anna is still uncomfortable with the treatment of Daffa who is somewhat touchy (loving to touch) against him. But his reluctance was not addressed by Daffa. As a result, he also relented.

After all since the agreement that happened between the two earlier, Daffa has been entitled to Anna's entire body.

Moreover, both of them have set their intentions straight before marriage. From the beginning of a contract marriage, it became a real marriage.

Anna was obliged to serve her husband. Even if it is just holding hands.

"Daffa, are you out of town tomorrow?" Ask Mama Ira to Daffa.

In his heart, Ira acknowledged the good looks of his daughter-in-law. Even her long-lost husband, Jordan, was less handsome than the young man before her.

Whereas at the beginning of his career, Jordan was lined up as the 'the most handsome Artist' version of the magazine EPA (Extraordinary Person and All).

EPA Magazine is a magazine that is believed to represent the assessment of socialites in Indonesia.

According to Mama Ira, if Daffa is interested in diving into the entertainment world, he will definitely become a sensational figure with a super handsome face.

Moreover, Daffa also has a mysterious aura that will definitely attract the hearts of women. Unfortunately, it seems that Daffa is not interested in entertainment. Because without being an artist, his daughter-in-law was already twisted.

Even if Daffa was interested in entering the entertainment world, Mama Ira was not sure that she could pull the queen to sign with the agency where she currently works.

Ira's current agency is Buana PH (Production House). The hostile agency is quite fierce with the Star Plus PH agency. And Ira found out that one of the guests from Daffa was the CEO and co-founder of Star TV.

"Yes, Ma." The short answer from Daffa had blown away Mama Ira's brief daydream.

"When you get out of town, where are you going to live?" Ask Mama Ira.

Anna and Daffa looked at each other. Then, Daffa answered the question from Mama Ira.

"This afternoon we will stay at a hotel near the airport. We have to go to Lombok in the morning. Maybe.."

"Wait a minute. 'we'? You mean you too, Anna?" Mama Ira cut off Daffa's speech.

This time, Anna answered Mama Ira's question.

"Yes, Ma. Anna will probably join Daffa for the next week. It's okay, Ma?"

"That's." looks like Mama Ira reluctantly agrees to let Anna go. But then he glanced at Daffa. The young man looked straight at him.

"alright. It's okay to go with your husband. But, what about your college, Anna?"

"Anna permission first, Ma for the next week."

"oo.."

"But.. Anna is worried about Zizi. He used to sleep with me. If I go, Zizi..." Anna's words hang.

Daffa. Not expecting the worry that Anna felt.

'couldn't Anna have intended to take her little sister to a honeymoon with us?' daffa thought.

'if Zizi comes along, will that make me the third person? Moreover, Anna has not yet opened her heart to me, Daffa continued thinking.

The thought of Daffa was almost similar to what was entrenched in Mama Ira's mind. It's just that Mama Ira is happy if Anna wants to take Zizi away with her. It would certainly reduce the burden of his mind in this house.

But then Mama Ira saw the reluctance on Daffa's face. Mama Ira was confused. Whether he should appease Anna not to take Zizi with him, or let him take Zizi away.

Mama Ira's confusion arises because she wants to be closer to Daffa. According to Mama Ira, there is no harm if she builds a good relationship with her daughter-in-law. He hopes that Daffa can help Dodi get into the Zi Tech company.

In the end, Mama Ira's love for Dodi won. Because a few seconds later, he volunteered to look after Zizi as long as Anna left.

"You don't have to worry about Zizi. There's Mama, there's Bik Inem. So you're a honeymoon. Don't think of anything else. Okay." Okay."

"Mm. thanks, Ma." Doubtful Anna thanked Mama Ira.

Although in fact he was quite surprised by Mama Ira's offer. Usually Mama Ira always treat Zizi as if he does not exist. But now...

Beside Anna, Daffa secretly smiled happily. She is grateful that her honeymoon with Anna will go well.

Daffa then catches Mama Ira's eyes on him. Looks like her mother-in-law knew her way of mind just now. Daffa immediately put on a neutral face expression again.

Shortly after, the ringing sound of mobile phones rang out loud in the living room. Instantly, the three pairs of eyes belonged to Anna, Daffa and Mama Ira were immediately turned to the smartphone that was in Mama Ira's handbag.

"Just a minute," said Mama Ira.

Mama Ira then took a smartphone in her handbag, and looked at her phone screen. It was then that Anna again caught the tension in Mama Ira's face, just as she had seen it on the porch earlier.

Before long, Mama Ira was seen touching the screen of her smartphone. And the ringing sounds stopped instantly.

"Who from, Ma? How's it going in reject?" Anna asked curiously.

The one asked was surprised and seemed confused about what to answer. In the end Mama Ira tried to shift the conversation to something else.

"Oh, yeah! Mama's got a present for you guys" said Mama Ira suddenly.

Mama Ira then grabbed her handbag that was the size of a handbag. Then take two gifts out of the bag.

Anna and Daffa fell silent watching Mama Ira's movements.

Next Mama Ira suggested that Anna and Daffa open the card right then and there. Directly followed by Anna.

"This gift is for you, Daffa. It's not a fancy gift, but Mama hope you like it. Consider this an introductory gift as well as a wedding for you."

Sodor Mama Ira to Daffa, when he saw the young man did not immediately open his gift wrapper.

"Good, Ma. Thank you," Daffa said.

"Open it now" Pinta Mama Ira again.

Clumsy, Daffa opened the gift wrapped in blue paper in his hand. Every now and then he glanced at Anna beside him who was also unwrapping gifts, the difference between Anna's pink paper.

"This..what is Ma?" There was Anna's voice then, as she was already holding the contents of the gift she had just opened.

"That's a necklace for you, Anna. Mama has never given you anything good. So Mama prepare the gift for you. mama hope you like," Papar Mama Ira.

The necklace looks simple. With a small heart-shaped pendulum. Anna initially thought the pendulum was a pendant. But when he looked more closely, the pendulum was just an ordinary pendulum.

"Thank you, Ma." said Anna.

Mama Ira smiled. "Let's wear it right now. Mama wants to see you wear it" Pinta Mama Ira is back.

Anna was wearing a necklace given by her mother. But he had difficulty buttoning both ends of the necklace.

Daffa eventually volunteered to help Anna tie the two ends of the necklace around her neck.

After the necklace around Anna's neck was related, the three pairs of eyes in the living room at that time were all fixed to Anna's neck.

"That looks pretty. I hope you like it, Anna" said Mama Ira.

"... Yes, Ma. Thank you," said Anna in a soft voice.

"Daffa, what about the prize. You like it, don't you?" Ask Mama Ira to take turns to Daffa.

At that moment Daffa looked at a square-shaped box in his hand. He opened it and saw the contents of the box.

Daffa pondered something. After some time he fell silent, Daffa finally answered Mama Ira's question while looking into her in-laws' eyes.

"Yes, Ma. Thank you." Thank you."

For a few moments later the atmosphere in the living room was filled with a strange silence. Mama Ira was even seen clenching both hands on her lap, as if she was holding something back.

"Yes already. You might want to prepare clothes to bring in the afternoon, right, Anna. You guys go to the room. Mama..wanted to see Tedi in his room, too," said Mama Ira at last.

Without needing to be told twice, Anna immediately woke up and said back to her room upstairs. Daffa got up to get Anna.

The two of them immediately turned around leaving Mama Ira. While Mama Ira was still observing the back of the child and his daughter-in-law.

And Mama Ira's memory suddenly returned to about an hour ago. When he received a phone call when the wedding was just over. The call came from his nephew, Frans.

***

Back flash.

Mama Ira was in the car with Frans. He saw the appearance of his nephew being disheveled. It seemed like he could guess the cause of the tangle and fury on his nephew's face.

"Why did you ask Auntie here, Frans? Why don't you go to the house? Even though Anna is married to someone else. You can still come as Anna's cousin, right?" Ask Mama Ira.

Frans looks furious. Mama Ira was even afraid to face Frans at that time. Sometimes Frans reminds Ira of her brother who is also Frans' father. From the time Ira was little, she already harbored a fear of her brother.

The reason is that her brother has a cruel nature that is too cruel. And it seems that the cruelty of the Sihombing general is also decreasing in his son, Frans.

"Frans just wanted to ask Auntie for help. Give these two gifts to Anna and her husband. Pink gift for Anna. And a blue gift for the man."

"Why don't you give yourself to Anna and her husband, Frans?" Ask Mama Ira to astonishment.

"Udah. Aunty doesn't have to ask too many questions. Just give this to them!" Sergey Frans in anger.

"And remember, Tan. Aunty must say that this is a gift from Auntie. Don't tell me from Frans! And Auntie must make sure Anna actually wears this gift!" Frans' orders again.

"What the hell is it.." Mama Ira stopped talking as she received a fierce look from Frans.

"O.ok.ok will be Aunty to Anna" Ira said.

"And her husband!" Frans reminded.

"I.iya.iya also for her husband.Have you? That aja? If so, Auntie back again yes," Pamit Mama Ira hastened.

He did not want to stay with his nephew. Wrong he could get rubbed, because his nephew seemed to be very angry at this time.

When I just stepped one foot outside the car door, Mama Ira remembered something.

At first he did not intend to extend the time with his nephew again. But stupidly he, even dare to ask something that makes him curious.

"Frans, did you know that Anna was kidnapped this morning?" Ask Mama Ira.

Frans was silent and did not answer Mama Ira's question. Mama Ira then looked at her nephew's face carefully. Until finally a line of words finally came out of the young man's mouth.

"Of course I know. I told people to kidnap her."

"Well?!" Mama Ira was shocked. He stared into the face of his nephew.

"You kidnapped Anna this morning, Frans?" Ask Mama Ira back to make sure.

The next time, Mama Ira was very sorry for asking what made her curious. Because then he saw the face of Frans who seemed to threaten Mama Ira.

"Heh. Aunt won't report to Frans, will she?"

The grin on Frans' face at that time looked very scary.

Mom Ira immediately shook her head quickly. He felt confused, even if only to give a short answer "no going" to Frans.

Ira rushes out of the car, and steps quickly to get to her house. He also did not forget to bring two gifts from Frans for Anna and Daffa.

But when he got home, Dodi said Anna and Daffa were out of the house. A news that made Ira worried. When he did not have time to give Frans gift to his son and daughter-in-law.

As a result Mama Ira was waiting for the newly married couple on the porch of the house, with tension clearly plastered on her face.
