The Waiting of Alya's Love
Chapter 17
"I don't want to be betrothed, Mother! Please understand. Didn't I tell you a long time ago, if I didn't want to be betrothed?" Rendra refused the matchmaking event in front of all the families.
"Narendra! Is it hard to obey your parents? Pratiwi is not a girl. She's a highly educated woman, but also her seeds, weights and bebet. But you refused it for the sake of that indistinct woman. Where's your mind?" snapped Adi Nugraha's Dad.
"I don't want to be forced, Dad! I'm an adult, know what's best for me and my family" Rendra said aloud.
The debate between the parents and the child was witnessed by two families, namely the Adi Nugraha and Suryanegara families. They were just spectators, no one was trying to tear the three of them apart.
"If you still insist on refusing this match, leave this house with our facilities!" banish Adi Nugraha to his only son.
The old man was very disappointed with the attitude of the boy who was against him. All this time he was overindulging his son, following all the will of the boy. Adi Nugraha only submitted one request that was rejected outright, namely marrying a woman of family choice.
Adi Nugraha's wife, Karima, cried to see her favorite son leave their big house, after putting some magic cards given by the father and the letters of the vehicle and the keys on the table. Rendra only pocketed a few pieces of money as well as an ID card and an ATM card where his salary was received.
Rendra walked to the highway to wait for the night bus to pass Jogja. There were no treasures from the old man brought, he only brought his own sweat.
At midnight, Rendra went into his house. The house he bought after joining the satreskrim. He deliberately bought a house because he wanted to be free to move at any time.
Alya woke up before the dawn of the Adhan. Don't know why tonight he's so restless that he can't sleep well. Often wake up because strange dreams adorn his sleep.
As usual before going to the office, Alya checked the state of the cafe. This morning something was missing from her life. Since then just pacing around without knowing what to do, finally he was late to go to the office.
The couple's children Raka Pradipta and Shafeeyah were upset because they found Mentari's toys that were still left in the kitchen. Alya directly put the toy into her bag. He planned to give it to Reno if he met later.
Rendra went to the office using public transportation because the car and motorbike were given by parents, so it could not be used again. Today he wants a short permit to buy a motorbike for his transportation equipment.
Rendra contacted Alya, she wanted to be accompanied by her lover when buying a motorcycle. Alya also accepted it. They will go to the showroom at lunch so as not to disturb the activity and do not need to ask permission again.
Since Rendra does not have a vehicle, Alya who came to the office of the boyfriend to pick up. The young policeman was already waiting at the gate so that he could leave immediately once Alya arrived.
Alya was surprised because suddenly the lover wanted to buy a motorcycle. As far as Alya knows, Rendra has cars and motorcycles, even the cars used often change.
"Bang Rendra why buy another bike? Isn't the old bike still good?" alya asked out of curiosity.
"Pengen wear matic," answered Rendra briefly for fear of being caught lying.
During the two, Rendra never discussed what happened with him. The man is very closed in person, not easy to share personal stories with others, even with a boyfriend. He could not tell his lover frankly.
Rendra promises herself that she will fight for her love despite the life of the stakes. Once enough he lost the woman who controlled his heart and mind. Now he wants to keep the woman who is able to shake his heart, replace the woman.
Rendra once had a lover while still wearing a gray uniform. The girl had to leave after being threatened by her family. After years of separation, they are reunited under circumstances that are impossible to unite.
The woman had married a businessman who had an age gap. Married because of forced parents Rendra. However, Rendra's former lover has now lived happily.
After eating, the two split up at the mall because of work. Rendra returned to his office using an online taxi service while Alya drove his motorcycle to the office. However, in the middle of the journey Alya had to go home because his parents came.
When he arrived at the cafe, Alya's father and mother seemed to be chatting with a man. The girl directly approached them with a radiant face because it was happy that she had not met for a long time.
"Mas Reno?" Alya was astonished by Reno's existence between her father and her mother.
"You say Reno's gone, no word, keep breaking up. This who?" mother Shofie's Syndicate.
Alya grinned to show a row of white teeth heard the innuendo of the mother.
"Have you met, Bun. Some of him already has. So, right now we are just pure friends," Alya replied explaining to her parents.
Mother Shofie was directly staring at Reno, as if asking the truth of her son's story. Feeling himself being stared at sharply, Reno was swept away. The man immediately rubbed his nape that did not itch.
"I'm a one-child widower, Auntie," I'm Reno at last. Actually he is embarrassed, but honestly it is better to be easy later in determining the attitude.
"Oh, do you have any children? Kirain hasn't," said Mother Shofie.
"Yes...."
"Yes, Aunt. My son Alya and the employees here, since my son was born," Reno said.
"Haha!" There was a crisp laugh from the four-headed woman.
"Can she carry a baby? I know the child is spoiled, you know," said Mother Shofie while chuckling.
While Mother Shofie and Reno chatted, Alya chose to carry her father's arm. His attitude naturally came out with his first love.
"Dad why did you come here so long ago? Yaya kangen, you know!"
"Father also misses you but is busy. Just got here. You're all right, aren't you?"
"As you can see," said Alya with a glowing face.
Feeling accepted by Alya's parents, Reno becomes very sure to make Alya his wife. However, as soon as he remembered his best friend he again hesitated to step up.
By gathering all her courage, Reno expressed her desire to make Alya a mother.
"What?" Alya was shocked and in disbelief when the ex proposed to her in front of her parents.
