The Matchmaker Competition

CHAPTER 17

The atmosphere in the nursery of Mama Dewi was quiet. Just the sound of the sound of the sound of the evening made the atmosphere quite gripping. Dira just sat by the mother's bed. No sleepiness hit him. Online reading also accompanies his free time even though it is late at night.

While Feri and Vira have been sleeping on a mattress mat that is held on the floor. Dira stared at the two siblings.

They might still sleep well. Though supposedly as the eldest son Feri is more alert than me.

Dira complained that his two brothers were still sleeping. The ferry even snared faintly. Dira returned to reading his online novel entitled "Alya: Love ordinary girl" did not feel the time rolling. Dira began to be unable to control his drowsiness and eventually fell asleep.

This morning, the three brothers had gathered in their mother's ward. According to the doctor, Mama Dewi can be invited home. Of course they were all happy to hear it. The three brothers were busy preparing for the return of the mother.

Rian comes to pick up his "Prospective-in-law", Dira feels bad for Rian who has spent a lot of time.

"You know what, Dira? Rian's attitude has been a reference for you to think again about the couple." Whisper Feri when he saw Rian in helping the Dira family.

"Please, sister, don't talk about it! the time is not possible." Dira lazy to talk about couples.

"Well, auntie's coming home?" Juna came early in the morning to visit the Goddess' mother.

For Juna mama Dewi has become a second parent besides both parents. Since her mom and dad moved office from Jakarta to Bandung, Juna has spent more time with the Dira family.

"Juna, here, son." Mama Dewi called Juna like a mother to her child. Juna immediately approached and sat down beside the Goddess.

"Aunty heard Delia's home, huh?" Juna just nodded.

"Keep you when to officiate the wedding. You're young again, Juna. Aunty wants to see you and Delia together before the end of the day. Aunty really wanted you to be our daughter-in-law, but the feeling is yes, Jun. Can't be forced." Hearing Mama Dewi's words, Juna glanced at Dira.

Dira who heard his mother's words can only pretend to be ignorant. Shortly Dira invites Rian out of his mother's room.

"Thank you, aunt. May the prayer of aunty be afflicted by God."

May aunty's prayer be answered to make me the aunt's daughter-in-law.

POV Dira's

"So how, Dira. Have you considered me as your future husband. Am I among the candidates your mama wants?" Rian opened the conversation as we sat in the front seat of Rian's car.

"Rian, what are you doing with my family, Ikhlas? or there's a shrimp behind the rock." My answer.

Why would I ask like that? Because I'm not a self-seeking man. If it helps only humanity I'm sincere. But if there's a reward, I don't want to accept it either.

For the sake of my mother, the woman I still have. Okay, my papa's still there, but we papa's dead. After what he did to my mom and us.

I looked out when I heard Rian's words charging for an answer to me. At that time, we agreed to be friends first. But he just got back to answering. I bowed my head in a breath that felt heavy. Taking a look at Rian, the man smiled at me, so sweet.

"Ma .." I was shocked when Rian suddenly pulled my hand close to his shoulder.

"Ri.an .. Whatchu mean?" I see he's getting bolder.

This close! This close his face was one centi away.

A plaaaaakk!

"Dira!" I heard his voice rise. Yes As high as not accepting my slap.

I left the car. Rian didn't try to chase after me, but even if he came after me, I really don't care anymore.

My expedition about Rian went extinct instantly.

"Dira."

I heard Juna's voice calling me. Ah, why does he always show up at times like this.

I saw my mom sitting in a wheelchair. Soon I might approach them, fortunately I did not cry after Rian's incident. Otherwise, they must be wondering.

"Darling, where have you been?" I looked at the pretty smiling face of my mother.

"I went to the toilet, Mom. Yuk, I'm going home, right. Brother Feri get the car ready."

"Well, instead of Rian's car? Where's riannya?" Ask Brother Ferries.

"Rian's home, brother. There was a call from his office. I'm sorry he didn't get around to y'all in a hurry."

The vow! I have no intention of lying to them. But if you remember the lack of Rian's teachings it hurts a lot. I looked at my mother with a sense of tightness.

Forgive Dira, ma. I think Rian should be scribbled from the candidate.

Classic European style house that looks sturdy and luxurious. A positive aura was implied from anyone in sight. Located in the elite area of brass, it is the home of the family residence of Dewi Savitri. The atmosphere of the house looks bright as if greeting the owner. Even the sky welcomed his return by making the weather quite sunny.

I accompanied my mother to the room with Vira. It seems that Vira's attitude is reluctant to greet me when in the mama's room. Could he be offended? But the fact is that. He's the prime suspect who made my mom force me to get married.

"More..." Mama called.

"Yes, ma." I sat down near my mother's bed.

"You sleep here, yeah. Mama wants to talk a lot with you." Pinta mama I just straight away.

I slept in my mom's room tonight. Honestly, I'm afraid my mom is talking about a couple. The round about the expression of Rian's feelings came somehow I always try to avoid when talking about a partner.

"Dira"

"Yes, ma."

"Forget Juna. Mama knows you've loved Juna since childhood. You remind every time there is a problem or someone is bothering you always look for him. You have a brother you can count on. There's a ferry ready to protect you. Actually mama also likes Juna, but mama Juna says they are bound by a debt of gratitude that is difficult to release."

I just looked down inside. I thought all this time mom only cared about Kak Feri and Vira who were more perfect than me. Vira's brain is smarter than mine. But my mother was secretly watching me.

"Ma, I don't have any feelings for Juna. He already has Delia." My answer.

"Good, mending you focus on Rian. Mama would agree you're with Rian." Answer Mama firmly.

I can't say yes or no. But can there be a solution to this problem? I'm tired of being in rongrong about being a soul mate all the time.

It feels like yelling or maybe I should go crazy first let mama and the others see how I feel. I started thinking about marriage. Thinking opened my heart to Rian, but in fact it was Rian who made me turn around.

My career in the office is still corn. I prefer to fight for my career first.
