Thorny Love

*Chapter 78

Both of Zein's parents grew happier when they heard Zia's words just now. With a big smile, mama Zein took Zia to leave the airport for the car. Papa Zein follows mama Zein and Zia. They ignored Zein there by leaving Zein just like that.

"Mama .. papa .. You're right. You leave me after you get a new child" Zein said in a feigned tone of sadness.

"Bodo is just like you, Zein. You know where to go home. If you want to go home, we don't have to take you anymore, do we? You just need to follow you, without having to ask first," said papa Zein did not care about the moans of his son.

"Oh my God, you guys are so happy, Ma, Pa."

Zein is forced to follow her family from behind with the situation constantly being ignored by her mom and dad. Not only that, Zein also had to feel sitting apart from a chair with Zia. He had to feel sitting in front with the driver while Zia was sitting in the back with mom and dad Zein.

Arrive at the Martin family home. Zia was a bit shocked when she saw Zein's residence all along. The residence of the Martin family is not a house but a mansion with many servants who work, like in the palace of the king.

"Ziana, welcome to the Martin family home, son. May you feel at home and at ease here," said papa Zein welcoming Zia with a smile.

"Te-thank you very much, Pa. You already want to accept me as a daughter-in-law in your family," Zia said with feelings of haru.

"You're Zein's chosen son-in-law. We believe that Zein would not be wrong to choose a wife to be his life companion. So, don't think about unnecessary things, yeah."

"Tuh, listen to what papa said. Don't think unnecessary. This too, why drop tears instead" Zein said while wiping away the tears that Zia could not bear.

"Geez, baby, what's wrong? Why are you even crying? Is it because of Zein's words just now?" ask mama Zein concerned.

"Lho, mama, I'm even guilty of me anyway," said Zein did not accept.

"No, Ma. It's not because of Zein. These tears are happy tears because you are so good to me. You are willing to accept me as your son-in-law with the flaws I have."

"Std. Zia, don't ever talk like that again. You forgot what I was talking about? Don't think of anything unnecessary" Zein said as she looked at Zia lovingly.

The mood is getting worse. Papa and Ma Zein notya prevent, but instead get carried away. For a while, they were in the mood of the day, until a butler came to greet their master.

"Welcome, great sir, great lady, young master, and. Sorry to disturb the big master, I didn't mean to spoil the atmosphere. It's just, I want to ask, is our show going to start now, or later tonight?" ask the butler carefully.

"Oh my God, I forgot" said papa Zein as he patted his eel.

"Forgot what, Pa?" asked Zein curiously.

"Papa's planning a welcoming party for you and Zia. But, the party was postponed because papa thought, you and Zia will come later tonight because your flight changed. But now, you're here. But, the welcome for you is still not finished. Papa forgot to tell our butler about your flight back to the original schedule," said papa rather sad.

"Udah, Dad. No need to be disappointed like that. Papa can still make a welcome for me and Zein when it's over."

from mama and papa, it's been so special that I feel, you don't have to make another party anymore."

"You two can. You two are so good. Both can be comforting," papa Zein said with a smile.

They went inside with a makeshift welcome by the servants. Because the plan that Papa Zein made, it's still not finished. His intention, papa Zein would welcome their son-in-law with a very lively reception.

The servants would sprinkle flowers as Zia and Zein entered the courtyard of the Martin family mansion. But the truth is, none of that happened. Because all the preparations, they're still not finished.

---------

Despite being late, Zein and Zia's welcoming party still happened. They celebrated the welcoming party the day after Zein and Zia were there.

A pretty big party was also lively, held in the Martin family mansion. All close relatives are invited. Mama and Papa Zein proudly introduced Zia to all her relatives.

Yes, the welcome of all Zein's relatives was also pleasant. They were all happy with Zein and Zia's marriage.

After the event was over, Zein and Zia were lying in the room. They both feel tired all day serving the guests who come and go, like at a wedding reception.

"Zein, it turns out that your family is a lot too," Zia said as she caught her breath.

"Yes, good. Can make firewood if it runs out of gas," Zein said, even responding to Zia's words with a joke.

"You're m Zein, by the way, don't think about it." Zia was upset by Zein's words.

"I thought, baby. If I don't think, how can I say those words."

"Hm ... Zia, I'm so tired. What if you take me?" asked Zein starting to think strange things.

"Obatin you? The way?"

Zein whispered something into Zia's ear. Quickly, Zia's face turned red, meeting with embarrassment.

"Don't do much for you Zein. We're tired again. That's not ngobatin even nambahin."

"Yes .... " Zein looked disappointed by Zia's refusal. But instead, Zia instead smiled happily with the expression that Zein showed.

They eventually fell asleep because of the fatigue they felt. Nothing happened that night because Zia refused to treat Zein.
