Best Son-in-law
A Boomerang

The sound of a car engine was heard stopping right in front of the door of the Wijaya family residence. Soon a middle-aged man was greeted by Amelia.

“Hai dear, how was your trip?” ask Amelia to her husband. Then he swiftly took the briefcase from Prayoga Wijaya's hand.

“Yeah, as usual. Torn up everywhere. Makes me dizzy,” he held out his briefcase to his wife.

“At the dinner table there is Linda and her son Andre, how about we eat together? We were deliberately waiting for you,” asked Amelia.

“Alright, it happens that my stomach is also very hungry,” Prayoga also walked to the dining room.

Seeing the arrival of Prayoga, Linda and Andre spontaneously stood up and greeted the man. They both look very trying to take Prayoga's heart.

“Goodnight, om,” greet Andre.

“Halo, mr Prayoga, how are you?” greet Linda.

Prayoga simply smiled in response to the two men's greeting and then sat down in his chair. The waiter then began serving food and drinks in front of them.

“Andre, tumben you come with your mama play here? Usually you just keep going home,” asked Prayoga.

Feeling like getting a breath of fresh air, Andre did not waste the opportunity.

“So I'm the same new mom from the gallery painter subscription om same aunt Amelia. We ordered the latest painting that has not been launched,” replied Andre with a smile.

“Oh, yes? Cool dong? After we finish dinner, om want to see the painting,” said Prayoga.

“Om sure, definitely can! Last time I put the painting in the living room,” replied Andre who was more excited.

After dinner, they all walked to the living room to see the painting that Andre had promised. A painting of the Eiger mountain landscape covered by snow with the foot of the mountain that looks green because it is surrounded by grasslands.

So contrasting.

Prayoga was very interested in the painting. As the man was gazing at the painting with admiration, Andre took the opportunity to approach Prayoga even further.

“It looks like om likes this painting as much as I do,” Andre said opening the conversation.

“Oh yes, om love this painting. Looks so gallant mountain Eigernya and so peaceful pasture,” answered Prayoga without taking his eyes off the painting.

“Me and Sonya while still sitting on the bench of High School used to aspire to go on vacation together to Mount Eiger.”

“Loh, so you used to meet Sonya too?” prayoga asked a little surprised.

“Iya om, Sonya and I have been friends since childhood. Because mama and aunt Amelia often go together, so I am the same Sonya also often met,” replied Andre with sumringah.

“Kok om even new tau, yes?”

Hearing Andre's blatant answer made Prayoga begin to assess where the direction of the conversation will continue. However, he did not want to be rash in concluding. He decided to continue this conversation until Andre said for himself what he suspected.

“Where do you work now? How come you didn't see you at Sonya's wedding? You know it Sonya.”

“Oh yes om, I was still in shock when I heard Sonya was married. Because in fact I have long had the same feeling Sonya,” replied Andre with an awkward smile.

“So you're heartbroken story?” prayoga Goda.

“Yeah, arguably so om.” Andre replied while scratching his non-itchy temple.

“So the man should be able to toughen up, whatever he faces. Including heartbreak,” Prayoga pat Andre's shoulder warmly.

“Um... I heard, not long ago Sonya's husband died, huh om? I am so sorry. I'm sorry I didn't attend the funeral because I also just found out. If possible, I want permission to approach Sonya again. I promise to look after and make Sonya happy for the rest of my life. No need to worry, Sonya and I have been friends since childhood. So we already know the nature of each, and you could say we have a lot of matches,” this time Andre immediately expressed the intention of his arrival to the house.

Amelia who heard Andre's words was a little shocked. The news of Chandra's death should not have been widespread. While Linda looks smiling because she sees her son so smart to take advantage of the opportunity.

Prayoga smiled meaningfully.

Not yet Prayoga and Amelia answered Andre's words, Sonya walked into the living room and her face looked flushed with anger.

He loudly said, “Confidence once you!? Who told you that I already have the status of a widow!? My husband is alive and breathing! Even he was in a fit fit healthy state without any shortage of one!”

Behind Sonya, Chandra is seen walking into the house.

Hearing Sonya's words, and seeing the reality in front of them made Linda and Andre's emotions ignited. Because the plan they had neatly arranged had now become a mess.

“Wah... Whoa... Here comes the loser guy who dares to challenge a daughter of the Wijaya family.” Andre started the war. But he was not satisfied until there, “Do you know? You're not at all worthy of Sonya! You're just the ugly one who's in luck!”

Sonya who memorized the behavior of her childhood friend began to ignite her emotions. She did not accept her husband being insulted. He had a glance at Chandra who was so calm faced Andre's words, just like before. Sonya immediately stepped forward to reply to Andre's words, but she lost quickly to Chandra's words.

“Wah, looks like you need a mirror! No real man gets the woman he loves by using his mother. You even tried to bribe my father-in-law with that painting you brought? Very very great! You're a real loser, man!” reply Chandra fiery.

Linda who saw her favorite son insulted also did not accept. He was aggressively attacking Chandra.

“Listen to me poor man! Hey, get up from your long sleep! Don't think because you can marry one of the Wijaya princesses, then you can do as you please. As high as the flying stork, surely the fall will be to the puddle as well. Same asyou. You are from the puddle, then you will go back to the puddle where you came from.”

Sonya who heard Linda's words was getting furious, wanting to feel like she was tearing the middle-aged woman's face apart. If there were no father or mother, he might have run to the woman and pulled her hair out.

This time he will not be silent, he will reply to the words of the woman. However, again he lost quickly with Chandra.

“Alright, maybe I'm just a stork that's going back to the puddle I came from. But I'm a real man. Unlike your child who has an embarrassing disease for men.”

Chandra said with a cynical smile.
