The Secret Marriage of the Teacher

Fact-Finding

“How can you let married students stay in school here ?” marsha asked with her arrogant face.

Mr. Liman kept his promise, after the 12th son ended the public replay week of his even semester, Marsha, Pingkan and Arman again met with Gaby accompanied by Om Sofian and one of the members of the legal team.

“Moreover Gaby's marriage happened with the teacher here, do you not worry if the name of this school is polluted because it is considered the school is not right ?”

“Here there is already a representative of the Gaby family, if anyone wants to ask please aja.”

Om Sofian nodded his head at Mr. Liman and looked at Gaby's three friends with a smile.

“The photo of Gaby's marriage to Mr. Jonathan is not a hoax but the hashtag written below is slander and the family will not stand idly by if the slander is growing.”

“But Gaby's status is a student and Mr. Nathan is a teacher at this school,” Marsha reiterated his statement.

“Their marriage has followed the rules that apply for reasons that are very personal. Before this issue was raised through the group wa, were there any complaints from other students that Gaby was different from you ? Their marriage has been running for 10 months and Mr. Jonathan still holds his commitment to give Gaby the space and time to complete her education at this school.”

The arrogant faces of Marsha and Arman are still unable to accept Om Sofian's statement.

“Please do not blame the school because all the rules we have fulfilled. This is my business card.”

Om Sofian issued 3 pieces of business cards each for Marsha, Pingkan and Arman.

“It doesn't matter if your parents want to meet. Isn't your father a lawyer, Marsha ?” Marsha's eyes immediately puffed up while her hand was already holding Om Sofian's business card.

“Please contact me if you still have anything you want to make sure. You can meet at school or in our office. How ? Anything you still want to say ?”

Om Sofian looked at Gaby's three friends one by one .

“Not threaten but please slander in group wa do not extend or exaggerate. You certainly understand that defamation and hate speech through social media can be brought to the green table.”

Marsha glanced at Gaby with a cynical look and smile. Her efforts failed to get Gaby expelled from school.

“What news ?” gaby asked when he met the three guys who were waiting for him at their cafe.

After meeting with Mr. Liman, along with Raina and Mimi who were waiting for him, they immediately followed the three guys who were waiting at the cafe.

“Danu managed to make Ivana hand over her phone with the help of Mr. Liman and directly taken by my friend who was an expert about this.”

“Contin ?” mimi asked with a curious face.

”Good news as good as bad,” said Danu made the three girls in front of him knit his eyebrows.

Joni opened her laptop and asked the three girls to switch positions so they could both look at the screen.

“This is the result. No one thought they weren't alone.”

Only Danu looked ordinary while the other four widened their eyes.

“Tomorrow I bumped !” raina growled while clenching both of her hands.

“Gue help elo, Rai, “ timpal Mimi.

“Do not on emotions first, people like this are easy to kink especially this one,” Danu said and his index finger was directed at one name that was plastered on the screen.

“Contin ?” ask Mimi with a tinge of emotion.

“Gue will discuss it with Pak Liman and Om Sofian. Especially that one, we do not have the authority to confirm it,” Gaby said with a sigh.

Jonathan stirred a warm drink in front of him. It has been 30 minutes he waited for Maya in one of the cafes in the northern area of Jakarta. The location is deliberately away from home because Jonathan does not want Gaby or Kendra to find him meeting Maya.

His phone was deliberately turned off because he did not want to be bothered by incoming messages or calls. It took a long time of courage and consideration before Jonathan took Maya to dinner.

Jonathan massaged his temple while staring out the window. Her face looks tense and tangled but not because of the problems that are afflicting the company and the disruption at Gaby's school, but nervous about meeting Maya again.

The touch of Maya's hand made Jonathan surprised and immediately woke up and hugged Maya. The woman widened her eyes, not believing Jonathan would embrace her.

“Thank you for coming,” Jonathan let go of his embrace. “I'm afraid you're still angry and won't see me again.”

Maya's heart pounded, her attitude suddenly nervous. Since getting to know Jonathan until becoming his new lover this time Maya felt his heart beat hammering.

“What message do you want ? Your taste has not changed, right?”

Maya lifts her face from the menu book, the two looking at each other. The charisma of Jonathan that looks more mature makes Maya more fascinated and Maya's face immediately blushed.

“You remember ?”

“Of course. Not yet a year we separated, which can be compared to 3 years with you,” said Jonathan while laughing softly.

Jonathan called the waiter and mentioned food and drink to the two of them.

“Sorry I made you come all the way here.”

“No problem, I'm even glad you still remember me even remember my favorite food.”

Jonathan smiled faintly, the look on his face turning softly making Maya frown and touch Jonathan's fingers on the table.

“What other problems are there?”

Maya is a little relieved that Jonathan did not pull over her hand like the last they met.

“It looks like I took a wrong step, choosing to marry a High School boy. At first I thought that Gaby was submissive and manageable, but her attitude was beyond my expectations. He doesn't even care much about the problems in the company that comes to change.”

Jonathan stared deeply into Maya's eyes and even held her fingers back.

“I feel like I'm just a bad carrier because the problem came from the time I worked at the company replacing my deceased in-laws.”

“Don't say that. You forgot the reason for marrying her ? You are forced to be and I know that her family chose you because it needs a grown man to be the guardian of that child,” Maya said in a raised voice.

“Office warehouse burned yesterday morning,” Jonathan watered with a sad face but his gaze focused on Maya.

Jonathan's eyebrows catch the shock on Maya's face.

“The name is also a fire disaster, where you can blame yourself for the cause.”

“If Gaby had a view like yours, I would definitely not feel guilty like this,” muttered Jonathan.

“Did he blame you instead of comforting you?”

Jonathan just silently grabbed a drink and gulped it down to half.

“Do you love her as you told me?”

“I doubt instead, whether my feelings can be said to be love or just pity because Gaby is already a kara.”

Maya relinquishes her grasp as the waiter comes to deliver their order.

“I'm thinking of returning all this responsibility to Gaby. It seems too heavy for me to walk alone in a condition that is still unfamiliar to me.”

“You mean you intend to divorce your wife ?”

Jonathan took a deep breath and did not directly answer Maya's question.

“Eat first.” Jonathan approaches Maya's dinner plate and prepares the cutlery for her ex-lover.

“I am willing to be a replacement for the boy if you divorce him,” Maya said slowly and her face leaned towards Jonathan.

Jonathan smiled faintly with a sad face, not wanting to rush to answer Maya's question.
