Best Son-in-law
Men From the Past

A few years ago…

A handsome-looking man looked at the girl before him. A bunch of red roses he had given to the girl while expressing his feelings. This was the umpteenth time he had expressed his feelings for Sonya.

With a loving look he asked Sonya again, “Sonya, I really love you. Can't you just give me a little chance?”

“Come on Alex, I've said many times. I can't. I can only think of you as my friend. No more.” Sonya replied in despair.

No, I won't give up this time. Inner Alex.

“Listen to me Alex, I can't accept you because I don't have that feeling. Even if you force me thousands of times, if I don't have feelings it'll all be the same. Free.”

“What other men have and don't I have, Sonya?” Alex insisted this time.

“It doesn't matter what you have and what you don't have Alex. It's a matter of the heart, a matter of feeling. If I never thought of you as more than a friend, how could I be in a relationship as your lover?” sonya's voice began to rise.

“That's because you never opened your heart for me Sonya,” Alex really urged this time.

“Already Alex, this conversation will only make us hurt each other. I don't want that to happen. Since I still want to be friends with you,” Sonya tries to persuade Alex.

“Listen to me carefully Sonya, you can't force me to just give up. Because until anytime I will still love you.” Alex got up from his seat and walked away leaving Sonya alone.

I'm gonna go chase my dreams, Sonya for a second. After that I will go straight back and pursue your love again. Wait for me to come home. Inner Alex.

Until a few days ago when he had just arrived in the Fatherland, an old friend contacted him. “Alex, have you heard Sonya is married?” ask someone across there.

Alex was silent for a long time. If make others the question is so trivial and simple but for Alex, the question is so striking and makes his heart pinch. Sonya, the beautiful girl of his dreams so far, even he was willing to go abroad to seek sustenance just to collect wealth coffers to attract Sonya.

“Alex, are you still there?” ask across there.

“Yes, I'm still here. No. .. I don't know if Sonya's married. Who was her husband?” answer Alex.

“If you heard it you wouldn't believe Alex. Her husband was just an ordinary man who didn't even have anything. His profession was even far below Sonya's. She is just an ordinary and lowly nurse,” said her friend.

“What did you say? There was no way Sonya would want to marry such a man. I know their families very well. They were so crazy about honor and good name, so where could Sonya possibly marry a lowly man?” Alex laughed just thinking about it.

“Whatever if you don't trust Alex. But I'm telling the truth. If you want proof, you can come tomorrow at our college reunion,” his friend gave a suggestion.

But still, in Alex's eyes, wealth is everything.

(Alright, this time I can definitely get Sonya's heart. He can definitely tell which diamonds and which pebbles are not? Especially if you see her husband is not from among the people. Obviously he can't beat me), Alex's mind.

As Alex is busy judging Chandra's appearance, a woman walks up to them and invites Sonya to hug. It was Yunita Pertiwi. Alex's friends and allies to win Sonya's heart this time.

“Hai Sonya, you look so pretty tonight. Really stunning,” Yunita said.

Sonya happily returned Yunita's warm embrace with pleasure, “You're too much Yunita. I've always lost beautiful to you since long ago.”

“No Sonya, you were the prettiest among us from long ago until now. Even an Alex never stops chasing you. Right Alex?” yunita's answer clearly sounded provoking emotions and curiosity from various parties, especially Chandra.

“How could that be? I'm married, so I belong to someone else. Both in the eyes of the law and before God.” Sonya sounded a little reminiscent of where Alex is now. If it never happened before, especially now.

Hearing Sonya's words, Chandra was a little relieved because it turned out Sonya admitted it directly in front of her friends. However, not long ago Chandra was happy because of Sonya's words, Alex again continued his words.

“You may have married Sonya, but I don't care. I will still try to get your love, even if it means having to fight your husband,” Alex said arrogantly.

Chandra's face immediately looked stiff. He obviously didn't like Alex's words. Although he has been treated harshly, if he sees a change in Sonya's attitude lately, Chandra believes Sonya must also love him now.

“You must be Chandra Juandi Sonya's husband huh? It's nice to meet you in person. Meet me, Alex Purwanto. Sonya's friend from a long time ago, as well as your rival from this second,” Alex thrust his hand at Chandra, inviting shaking hands.

(We see, how strong your hand grip weak men! This is the beginning of all the nightmares that have befallen you. Because you have dared to marry My Sonya. You don't deserve to be with her, only I deserve it), Alex's mind.

Unexpectedly, Chandra welcomes Alex's handshake steadily. If Alex initially intended to humiliate Chandra with his strong grasp of his hand, this time he was mistaken. Chandra's hand is much stronger than his. Alex's hand immediately felt like a crumble to his bones. Even his legs felt limp instantly, the sweat was clearly frowned upon because he was enduring extreme pain.

Yunita who saw Alex in pain finally tried to help Alex to get out of the situation that looks very embarrassing. “Alex, Sonya, let's better sit down and order some food. My stomach is starting to feel hungry.”

Hearing Yunita's words, Chandra slowly let go of her hand first while smiling warmly but meaningfully towards Alex. Chandra's smile seemed to remind Alex not to do further to Sonya or herself.
