Tough Princess

Daddy's Request

"Dad, don't close Daddy's eyes like this. Lookatme!" Eren grew increasingly frustrated as his biological father's interest spoke while closing his eyes. The man was like he really could no longer. And Eren doesn't like it when bad things happen. He still needs his real father.

"Dren!" Big Boss Turner opened his eyes slowly. The man looked at Eren while knowing his breath felt tight.

"Which part hurts, Dad. Which one?" Eren pointed towards the chest. "What's here?" Eren's face was getting frustrated. "Oh God! What do I have to do to keep Daddy from being in pain?"

"Let Elma and Rivan get married. Daddy wants to, before Daddy leaves. Elma is married to Daddy's man of choice. Daddy would have guaranteed that Rivan would take good care of Elma. He's trustworthy."

"Dad, now is not the time to talk about marriage. We're gonna focus on Daddy's health first."

"Eren, what if this is Daddy's last request? What if the time you have is not much more. Daddy wouldn't be able to leave quietly if he hadn't seen Elma get married."

Eren was getting saddened to hear that. Until finally the woman nodded. "alright. I'll take care of everything. Brother Elma and that man are getting married today."

Big Boss Turner smiled. "Thank you, Eren."

Eren wiped away his tears. He turned his face which still looked sad.

Elma entered along with Rivan. Elma decided to go downstairs with Rivan. The woman wants to see a doctor who treats Big Boss Turner's disease.

"Eren, why are you crying?" Elma wiped away the tears that had soaked her cheeks.

"Sister, Daddy made me cry." Eren wiped his tears again. "Daddy's bad, isn't it?"

Elma did not immediately believe Eren's words. The woman left Rivan and walked over to her biological father.

"Dad, what's Daddy feeling right now?" asked Elma in a soft tone. The woman rubbed Big Boss Turner's arm. He tried to hold back his grief so as not to create a burden for the middle-aged man before him.

"Eren has given you both my blessing. Daddy wants you to get married right now!"

"Master, you're still sick. You should focus on your health. Once your condition improves, Elma and I will get married." Rivan looked towards Eren who was still staring at him dislikefully. "Thank you for blessing us. I promise to be a good sister-in-law to you and a loyal husband to Elma."

"I don't need the words I need just proof. I bless you both because of Daddy's request. After marriage, if you dare to hurt my brother even a little, then I will repay your actions so cruelly. So think twice before hurting my brother!"

"Eren, what did you say? I agree with Rivan. This marriage should not be too rushed. Daddy's condition is still bad. We better focus on Daddy's health. If Daddy's allowed to go home later, then we'll discuss the matter of this marriage at home."

"No, Elma! Daddy doesn't agree! Daddy wants you to get married to Rivan. Today too!"

"Today?" chirp Elma and Rivan together.

...***...

Elma was forced to dress herself up because she was getting married. Nevertheless, repeatedly he had to wipe away the dripping tears. Elma is still not ready if she has to get married in front of her dying biological father.

Eren who was always beside Elma could do nothing more. The woman was also scared and confused. Until now, she was in the hospital to accompany her father. But the woman's mind had been turned to Japan. She was worried and wanted to leave immediately to find her husband.

"Sister Elma's problem isn't as serious as Zico's. I just need to put a spy inside the house they're going to live in to find out Rivan's true nature. After marrying Elma, I'll ask Rivan to stay home. Even though Elma's sister is married to Rivan, she has to stay home for someone to take care of Daddy. I have to go to Japan to save Zico. I don't want anything to happen to Lucia either. Until now he has not told me. Is it true he saved Luis?"

"Eren, why is your face so moody? Are you thinking of something?"

Eren shook his head slowly. "Sister Elma is very pretty. Now it's time. Let's go see Daddy and Rivan."

Elma nodded. The woman got up from the chair she was sitting in and walked along with Eren. While walking the woman again thought of Eren's facial expression.

"I know it's a wonder to be hiding something. But how do I know if Eren doesn't want a story?" inner Elma while walking.
