The Matchmaker Competition

CHAPTER 78

Anca Residence

Life does not always contain sweet things. Sometimes you have to face the things that make you fall as a human being. To become an adult you also need to make mistakes that make you feel slapped in the face. Disappointing your parents is one of them.

Where there was a mistake as a child. Neglecting our service as a child. Where at this time the mistakes made are very fatal. Nothing is perfect in this world. Similarly, the relationship between parents and children is not always smooth and happy.

The atmosphere this morning still seemed to be calm. Rian who had been awake was now standing in front of the kitchen set of his house. His eyes circled around the corner feeling the tension still lingering in his house. Since Rian canceled his wedding plans with Dira. Since then, both of his parents have been living in him. Rian realized his fatal mistake, which was to impregnate another woman. Rian also realized what he was doing to smear the faces of his parents.

The man sat alone at the dinner table. Andre just came out of his room near the kitchen. Rian who saw Andre passing directly led his driver to eat together.

"Sir Andre yuk had breakfast together. It's not good to eat alone." Take Rian while cuddling the fried rice onto the plate for Andre.

"Oh, den Rian I can take it myself." Andre feels bad.

"It's okay, Mr. Andre. Count my apologies for not being married to Dira."

Andre was shocked to hear Rian's words. How did the man know that he was Dira's father "Den, you know?"

Rian just smiled a little. He also knows about Mr. Andre as well from Eka, Dira's best friend. Some time ago Eka came to the house to hand over some files because Rian did not go to work.

"Rian, that's Andre, right?" eka asked when she arrived at her superior's house.

"Yes, Ka. You familiar?"

"Yes eelah. Mr. Andre is your future father-in-law, Dira's father. Haduh, so Dira hasn't told you about her papa.".

Rian shakes. All this time he thought Dira was an orphan. Because since knowing him he has never seen the figure of a father in the house of his future wife.

"It is only natural that Dira is closed. There must be a trauma side when it comes to his papa. Her father used to almost harass Vira, her youngest child. At that time Vira was a child so she didn't understand anything."

Rian stroked his chest hearing the story of his future wife. It certainly gave trauma to his family especially Vira and Dira.

Flashback off

"Om," Rian started a chat with Andre.

"Yes, den. Uh-" replied Andre. Andre was shocked to hear Rian calling him Om.

"We talked as former in-laws and former daughter-in-law candidates. Rian apologizes for not being able to continue the relationship with the child. Rian believes there is a more worthy figure with Dira. Although it is actually heavy I do this. But Roger needs me, um."

"Sorry, den. Uh-sorry son Rian. Roger's the kid that Rian brought in yesterday. Is Rian sure he's your son? I can't believe Rian has a child out of wedlock. It could be a trap."

"Sorry, this is not a trap. I had a DNA test, and it was proven that Delia and I had a child by mistake in the past. I still have to take responsibility for Roger, yes even if Delia doesn't want to admit her own son."

"Delia? I guess the name is not foreign, yeah." Andre was trying to think of the name Rian mentioned earlier.

"Indeed no stranger, om. Delia was Dira's friend since childhood. Mr. Shahab's son" Rian explained.

"God! as I recall Delia has never dated or been allowed to be close to men by Mr. Shabab. But why is it the same with you, son." Andre still did not fully believe.

"Sorry, den. Excuse me, I'll have an event soon. I have to get the car ready."Andre Pamit.

"Ah, Yes sir Andre. Thank you for accompanying me here." Rian leaves the dining room to prepare to leave for Alex's contract.

"Pa," Rian reprimanded his papa who was passing in front of him.

But still, Anca inhabited him like she considered him a statue. Rian breathed a heavy sigh. He realized his mistake was fatal. Defending it feels like it will not be heard. His head is down.

"Rian knows papa and mama is still angry about all this. It all feels fast, papa. Neither I nor Delia were framed by someone close to us. We were given stimulant drugs, all this is out of control, pa." Rian repeated the same explanation.

"Then why didn't you marry that woman? why are you even approaching Dira? papa never taught you to be a coward!"

"Delia won't marry me, pa. Even while giving birth to Roger Delia threw him into the orphanage. Now he does not want to recognize Roger as his son. Many women who are pregnant outside marriage are willing to raise their children. But not with Delia. He was willing to throw away his son just for the sake of another man."

Rian kept repeating the explanation to his papa. There was a hint of disappointment on the middle-aged man's face. At this time he was tired of giving understanding to his father and mother. When he saw his son who was upset his mother also approached his only son.

"Rian, mama is sorry for the attitude these few days. It's not easy for us to accept the fact that you have a child. You know if parents are angry it means there is a mistake that must be corrected. Angry parents usually feel the deepest disappointment. When they get angry at you there'll be guilt."

Rian hugged his mother tightly. Arumi stroked her son's back tightly. Both are involved in the atmosphere of melted tears. "Sorry, Rian, ma." he said.

"What's your plan, son?" ask Arumi.

"Rian just wants to take care of Roger's custody, ma. That's all."

"Then his mother?"

"Delia won't marry me or acknowledge Roger as her son, ma. So it's useless I keep that woman." Rian replied instantly his face was upset considering Delia's figure.

Arumi took a long breath. He actually understood the attitude of his granddaughter's mother. It takes time to accept the fact that there is a small figure in illegitimate circumstances. Need psychological treatment. Getting pregnant out of wedlock is a problem that is likely to add to the long problems afterwards. Why so?

Usually, the perpetrator of pregnancy outside marriage is a teenager or someone who is not ready to live life as a parent, but forced to live a life as an adult.pregnant out of wedlock that they are susceptible to stress and depression due to the emergence of shame, ostracized by the community and social environment.

Arumi had heard of a relative whose son was kicked out of the house for getting pregnant out of wedlock. Even if they protect the child, it could be that the number of abortions also decreased.

"You know, Rian. It is not easy for a woman to accept about her condition which is considered a disgrace. It is not easy for him to know there is a figure that lives in his body without the bond of marriage. If she is pregnant, she has a legitimate husband. Therefore, you must slowly understand the state of Roger's mother. If he hated Roger, he might have aborted the boy. But not right?he left his son in a place where he believed there would be more affection. Your friend takes good care of him. It takes time, son, to heal his traumatic wounds."
