Vortice In Vendetta

CHAPTER 5: The Wedding Day

The wedding party was finally done. After about three days the girl tried to be patient to deal with all the behavior of people in the house, she finally started her own game.

Fortunately, before the wedding Jea had proposed some conditions to both families as a wedding dowry. Because if not, then it is not impossible if he is caught up in his own game.

“I will apply some terms as dowry.” Pintanya.

“Where has a child as young as you learned such a thing?” ask Madame Akeno.

“Don't I deserve it, as a bride?” ask the girl again.

“Alright, let's say! What we should give to our beautiful daughter-in-law.” Ask Mr. Akeno kindly.

Both of the girls parents-in-law looked friendly. Different from the two guardians who looked at him with a look of dislike, especially for Clara.

“What does this damn girl want? If only my son was a woman and not a man then I wouldn't have to ask him to come back." murmured the witch.

It is true that the one who was interested in this marriage from the beginning was Clara. She was so ambitious about the throne and still wanted to lick more in order to crawl up. Especially with her status as a model, as well as the best local fashion designer. This will be very useful to boost its popularity.

"This is the best time to introduce her as Mrs. Goksel and colleague from Akeno Media" he thought.

That was why he took the risk to bring the girl back into the Goksel residence. Anyway, Mr. Sanjaya threw it away too. So his position inside the mansion will never be replaced.

(The first condition, is that they will stay in the residence after marriage. This condition he aimed so that he could protect Rayden and also Raga up close. Clara could not have hurt her and her brother in front of their daughter-in-law.)

(Secondly, since this marriage was performed without officially registering it in the eyes of the law, then they will have the right to vote after adulthood. Whether the marriage will continue and be legalized in the eyes of the law or even end after they are adults.)

“We cannot register this marriage because they are underage. The only way is to marry in series and formalize it among the family.” Said Natasha Akeno, the Grand Lady of the Akeno family.

(And the Third condition, they will not publicize their identity in public. Their real faces will not be completely exposed in public.)

“This makeup will slightly camouflage our faces won't it? I don't want if our personal lives are disrupted because of this political issue.” Firmly Jea in front of her two in-laws.

“It turns out the rumors we heard about your intelligence were true. You even think a step further than us.”praise her mother-in-law.

“What if you go to school in the same place as Aksa? I heard you got acceleration class before. Shouldn't you be in the same class?” said Tn. Akeno to her son-in-law.

“I don't mind. And I will try to be as normal as possible in school so as not to make it difficult.” Said Jea.

“Alright, then we will deliver Aksa's goods tomorrow morning. For today I will ask the waiter to bring you enough clothes. Rest up! And enjoy your time.”

Akeno's extended family left the Goksel residence after the event. Including with family meetings that have just been held for the meeting between two families.

“Can I hitchhike to the bathroom?” aksa asked politely when they were already in the same room.

“why? Did you hide something in your bathroom?” ledek Aksa's.

“I will prepare hot water for you to take a shower. Wait a minute.” Jea walks towards the bathroom and fills the bathtub with hot water, along with aromatherapy for Aksa.

Although she forced the marriage to carry out her plans, she was still aware of her status as a wife.

Basically Jea might be twelve years old, she was too young to be able to understand the little things around a household like this. But since the last twelve years he has been living with his older brother and is used to taking care of all his needs. Such small concerns were no longer new to him.

“Mandilah, everything I have prepared.” Said Jea still with a flat facial expression.

Aksa also felt that there was something strange about him. He is now fifteen years old. She had just turned teenage and had never known anything about love. His life has always been orderly and adapted to the strict rules of the Akeno family.

But seeing Jea's attitude to her today, by preparing bath water for her, she even prepared her clothes and helped Aksa to make the bed. Things that he never did alone even in his residence.

His heart warmed up, as if he felt his heart fall for the first time to a girl.

Since they were still very young, the extended family arranged their rooms with two separate beds in each corner of the room. The room was made into two parts, such as the corner of Aksa and the corner of Jea. But they were kept in one room.

In essence, the family does not limit them to get too close and also does not make them too far away. They make this marriage run normally and slowly. So that they can fill each other and complement each other.

They hope that this marriage can be maintained because of their own foundation of love and affection not because of coercion.

“Do you have any special habits before bed?” aksa asked as they were about to go to sleep after cleaning up together.

“Usually my brother would stroke my head and sing a sleeping song for me. But not anymore, after I was brought into this house I was getting used to.” The answer.

“Absolutely you didn't grow up in this house?” Aksa tilted his body so that he could face towards Jea. between them there is a distance that is so obvious in interspersed by two nightstands and a distance of about 1 Depa between them.

“No, I grew up in Papa's confidant's house, his name is Bang Lio. I just came to this house three days ago.” He stared at the ceiling of the room.

“So, because you helped me. Should I help you too? Do you want me to help you sleep?” ask Aksa to offer herself.

“No. Just turn off the lights then I will be able to sleep soundly.”

Jea pulled her blanket and turned to face the wall, she turned her back to Aksa who was facing her. Not only that, he also pulled the blanket to cover almost half his face.he drowned himself there, until Aksa finally relented, turned off the lights and closed his eyes to rest.

While Jea, she was still dissolved in her own imagination.

“He's not my topic for revenge. I can't hurt him. After all with his status as my husband doesn't that mean that he is my family now?”

“Alright, I'll think about it. As long as he doesn't make trouble, then I can protect him.” The girl muttered.

The wedding night was very quiet between the two. Both of them dissolve in their dreams. Especially for Aksa who is still trying to guess the character of the girl in front of him.
