"Married?" Naina was stunned to hear Aaric's question.
Aaric nodded slowly while looking at Naina's face fixedly.
While Winda, she silently gave a smile, feeling happy because Aaric finally fell into his trap to marry Naina.
"What did you say, son? You asked Naina to marry you?" Winda pretended to be shocked.
"Because this is the only way out, mother." Aaric saw his mother.
"You're right, this is the only way out." Winda saw Naina. " What about you?" ask Winda to Naina who looks confused.
"I.I don't know," replied Naina softly as she lowered her head.
"You have no other choice." Aaric saw Naina.
"But.." Naina looks hesitant.
"Son. What my son said is true, you have no other choice. I'm sorry, but you have to remember our agreement, you have to get pregnant and give birth to the successor of this family, regardless of how you get pregnant."
Naina looked down, her face looked even more confused.
Naina kept thinking that what she said was true because no matter how she had to keep her promise to rent out her womb, she knew that Winda had spent a lot of money for their deal, not to mention if he refused this time, Winda would definitely withdraw all his promises to finance the needs of the orphanage every month, then the fate of dozens of his sisters in the orphanage will be affected.
"You don't worry, we'll only get married in series, you just need to conceive my son, after you give birth then our marriage will end" Aaric said.
"Alright then," Naina replied directly after hearing Aaric's words.
"I agree if this is just a serial wedding" Naina added.
Winda seemed happy to hear Naina's answer.
"Good, the sooner the marriage is done, the sooner the better."
"As for mom," Aaric moved from his seat.
"Mom takes care of everything." Aaric looked at his watch.
"I have to go to the office now." Aaric approached his mother and said goodbye.
"Yes son. You just calm down, all the mothers who take care of it," said Winda.
Aaric left his mother's room, now only Winda and Naina who after giving the answer had continued to be silent.
"Naina, forgive me for being like this."
"No Mom, none of this is mom's fault, it's all because I'm the one who turned out to be in trouble. I should be the one apologizing."
Winda smiled, he approached Naina closer and hugged her.
"Naina, if you knew how mom feels now, I'd be happy."
Naina was silent in the arms of Winda.
Naina is grateful that at least there are still people who feel happy with this decision because with their own feelings Naina still feels confused, on the other hand she feels grateful because she finally failed to commit a major sin, where she must become pregnant without marriage first, so that the child she will be born later is not an illegitimate child born outside marriage.
But on the other hand, Naina still feels heavy about the decision she has taken, she feels very unprepared for the risks taken from the decision, where she must get pregnant naturally, she said, in a way that is related like a husband and wife.
Naina shuddered to think about it, how could she have to do that with a stranger, a person she just met, an unloved person and loved him. They should be forced to do that without any love, without any affection, there is only a burden. The burden to get pregnant as soon as possible.
Thinking about it made Naina seem frustrated.

In office.
"What's your decision then?" Dani sees Aaric busy working at his desk.
Aaric did not answer, he was busy looking at some files on his desk.
Ryan and Dani looked at each other.
"You want to come here, don't you have a job?" Aaric took a quick look at his two best friends and went back to checking the files on his desk.
"We're just curious about the next step you're going to take, you're going to find another woman or maybe you've finally decided to fuck that woman." Ryan replied with a chuckle.
"Yes I'm also curious, tell me what you're going to do." Dani asked seriously.
"I can't find another woman, grandma thinks she's my wife."
"Then..?" ryan asked curiously.
"You don't want you to have to impregnate yourself." Dani answered while flicking her finger.
Aaric sighed.
"That's how it is," answered Aaric again opening the map on his desk.
Dani and Ryan looked at each other again.
"When?" ask Ryan.
"What?" ask Aaric cuek.
"You and that woman will make a child?" ask Ryan again seriously.
Hearing Ryan's question, Dani laughed amusedly.
Another case with Aaric, he immediately save the pen and then look at the face of Ryan his best friend seriously.
"It's none of your business" Aaric replied resentfully and then returned to his job.
Ryan smiled.
"I'm sure once you know what it's like to make that child, you'll regret thinking about insemination." Ryan smiled broadly, followed by Dani. The two laughed together, while Aaric looked unfazed, he continued to focus on working.
"Oh yes ric, now for the next three days of the woman's fertile period, you must use it so that she quickly becomes pregnant." Dani spoke seriously this time.
Aaric sighed, leaning his body against the chair.
"We have to get married first, even if it's just a serial marriage."
"That's good, I agree," Ryan gave his opinion.
"When?" ask Dani.
"My mom will take care of it."
"Faster is better, I'm sure your grandmother calculated the woman's fake gestational age, we should try to keep the distance from the original pregnancy not too far away." Dani gave advice.
Aaric nodded.
"Aaric, if you need a stamina-enhancing drug, I'm there, you just have to ask me" Ryan said.
"Ryan's idea is good too, because you need more stamina, remember the woman is still sealed."
"Get away, it's been enough to interrupt my work time." Aaric seemed annoyed that his two best friends were constantly teasing him.

Nightfall.
"Son, I've arranged everything. The day after you and Aaric are getting married."
Naina's speechless.
"You'll be married by one of the ustadz acquaintances of the mother, are you ready?"
Naina nodded.
"Son. For our guardians to wear a judge." Linda spoke very carefully this time.
Naina was a little shocked, she saw the face of Winda.
"Justice judge?" ask Naina quietly.
"Yes dear.." replied Winda also quietly while rubbing Naina's hair.
Unintentionally Naina's tears trickled down on their own. It was as if she had just realized that to marry a woman needed her biological father to be her guardian, whereas she had to marry a guardian. All because her self who does not know where she came from, who her parents are, where they are, is still alive or dead, Naina does not know.
Winda, who knew exactly what Naina was thinking, approached her and hugged her tightly.
"Don't be sad, from now on we're your family."
