The Marriage Order

S3 Talk to Chat

I was flabbergasted to hear Reza's reply. Both of my parents already knew that shitty rumor. However, Kak Reza's expression seemed relaxed.

"How did they respond?" my many.

"They just shook slowly. I thought the news was just the wind. However, Papa and Mama are still waiting for clarification from you, Dek."

I took a long breath, and then responded to Brother Reza's words. "There's nothing to clarify, brother. I have never had a personal relationship with him other than that he is now my brother-in-law. But I'll never deny there's a past between us."

Reza just raised the corner of her lips. He got up from his seat, approached me. His hand rubbed my head repeatedly.

"Sister believes you'll be a better woman than ever. Moreover, in your stomach there is already a fetus that will grow well developed. Don't disappoint your husband and family, Dek."

"Yes. It won't, Brother." I just nodded with a meaningful smile to him.

"Yes, already. If it is like that, you can be calm to leave you unattended" he said suddenly.

"I mean Brother?" I cringed confused.

Reza did not answer directly. He was silent for a moment before finally a powerful sentence came out of his mouth. "So, I want to propose to Dita."

I was surprised to hear that word. It seems like only this time he was serious with a woman. And again, all of a sudden he told me.

"Sir Reza wasn't pranking me, was he?" I really can't believe it.

"No. I'm very serious. I thought I'd propose next year, but it's a pity for him to wait for me who can't make a decision." Brother Reza's eyes looked in the shade at me.

"Wow! Congratulations, Brother!" I hugged my only brother. At least, he dared to make a big decision in his life.

While jumping around in excitement, I continued to wrap my hands around her back.

"Hey! Oi! Sheryls! You can't jump around like this. Remember there's a baby in your womb."

Brother Reza stopped my mischievous behavior. I quickly pulled a hug, staring in surprise. Reza's words have a point.

"God! I forgot it," I said.

Brother Reza immediately nagged. Gently hit my head with the back of his fingers.

"Forgot! Children themselves should not forget. Haduh! I can't imagine what kind of mother you'll be." Chief Reza shook his head slowly. "Ckckl! My best friend ...."

Hearing the words of Kaka Reza who was so insinuating made my lips suddenly pursed in annoyance.

Haish! What does it mean to say that? I'm his sister, he should have defended me more than Baruna. But he mocked me like that. The huft!

Without wasting any time, I pushed his body to the front door of the room.

"Hey, Sheryl! You kicked me out, huh?!" said.

"Ck! Brother can't stay in my room. You have to work hard to be able to propose to girls!" seruku was anxious for him.

"Hey! You're upset apparently–" Sahutan Kak Reza immediately cut off when I closed the door of the room. Finally he gave up and left.

I sat back behind the desk. Back to keeping yourself there.

Baruna POVs

I was waiting for David at the Berlin hotel restaurant. Mr. Wicak and I deliberately came because David invited us to discuss a future partnership between Berlin and the Asyraf Corporation.

Time had already shown at half-eleven, but the man had not yet arrived. Actually, the time is very tight at lunch. Not to mention, I already promised Sheryl to accompany her to go to the obstetrician.

"What's up, sir? It seems very agitated," asked Mr. Wicak with his frown.

"Yes, huh? Call him?"

"It was, but he told me to wait because I was attending an important meeting" I said. Mr. Wicak just nodded in understanding.

I took a long breath. Get my phone and call my wife. "I have to call Sheryl first" I said.

For quite a long time the voice of the connecting tone was heard, he did not also raise it. Suddenly from a distance Felicia was seen walking towards my desk and Mr. Wicak.

"It's been a while?" tanyakanya.

I was silent gaping. Look at the woman standing in front of me. Mr. Wicak pecked a puzzled look towards us alternately.

Why is he here?

As if unconcerned, Felicia pulled the chair in front of her and sat there.

"Jiang, Bar!" her broom was snorting in front of me.

"Piang. Why are you here?" I stared at the confused Felicia in front of me. Mr. Wicak who noticed how Felicia greeted seemed immediately confused.

"It's not polite to him, sir. Calling you directly by name. Who does he think he is, huh?" whispered my personal assistant.

I didn't listen to his whisper. Felicia did not seem to hear Mr. Wicak's whisper. He glanced at his smile.

"Ah, yes ... hasn't my husband said it yet?"

"Say what?"

Felicia didn't answer yet, my phone rang. David's name is on the screen.

"Hello."

"Sir Baruna, I'm sorry I couldn't come to the meeting this afternoon, but my wife—Felicia will come in my place. He already knows what we're going to talk about this afternoon. I believe in him."

"Yes. He just came," I said.

"A fast. I'm really sorry. This is the last time I will break a promise. Tomorrow I will come whatever the situation is" David said.

"No-no need to be like that, sir. If your needs are so urgent, I can understand them. But definitely do not make an appointment suddenly."

"Yes, Sir. Again, forgive me."

After I said "it's okay", David finally ended the call. I refocused my pafa Felicia who was sitting looking at me with her chin up. His smile was full, looking very excited.

Netraku danced towards Mr. Wicak who noticed Felicia's gaze that might be so strange he thought. Smile at his business partner.

"Pak Wi, Mr. David has just confirmed that he cannot come and Felicia's mother is his wife. He was appointed directly by him to replace him."

"Oh ...." Mr. Wicak nodded in understanding. He then extended his hand, taking Felicia to shake hands. "I'm Wicaksono, Mr. Baruna's personal assistant," he said.

Felicia welcomed the handshake. His smile had not disappeared from his face. "Felicia Andita Princess. Call me Fely's mother" he said.

"Come on, Miss Fely."

"Siang" said the woman, then turned to me. "What if we just start, Bar?"

"Please" I said.

Without wasting any more time, Felicia and I began our discussion. It's been five years that we haven't met, but from the way he talks, he's still so mesmerizing. Her way of speaking showed that she was a smart woman with her vast insight. I can't deny it, I'm still amazed at him.

An hour later, our meeting was over. When Mr. Wicak and I cleaned up our luggage, Felicia suddenly said, "Bar, we haven't seen each other in a long time. How about we have a little chat?" Felicia looked at me, then glanced at Mr. Wicak meaningfully.
