Calibra: A Delayed Taste
CALIBRA | CHAPTER 92

Dava who had just returned home was about to pick up the stamp left behind, surprised by the arrival of Audi who suddenly entered the house by slamming the door. The girl walked quickly with her legs jerked a little hard, it was certain that she was in a bad state of heart.

Curious about what happened to her daughter, Dava undoes her original intention to go straight to the study. He chases after Audi who climbed the stairs quickly to the room.

"On? You why?"

"Hey?"

Audi did not answer, nor did he look.

Dava is increasingly convinced Audi is angry, but angry because of what?

"Audi, did you hear Papa?"

The father's soft voice was like the wind to Audi. Lalisa who had seen the two frowned in wonder, she had just picked up the stamp that Dava had asked for, but because she did not know it was so long.

Both father and son were racing up the stairs. Dava managed to stop Audi and pulled his shoulder to turn.

"Why are you, anyway, Di?" ask Dava in a soft voice.

Audi stared at the father. That clearly makes Dava more confused and restless. A curious lalisa also rose and was present between the two.

"What are you doing?"

But unfortunately the question is not ignored by Dava or Audi. Dava who focuses on the mood of Audi, Audi also dissolves in anger that is not yet known why.

"Why did Papa say?" Finally Audi replied even with an annoyed tone. "Maybe Papa didn't tell me Mas Ibra was here. Papa has also pressed and behaved less well with Mas Ibra. Aye, right?"

"Audi?"

"Tega, yes, Papa. Mas Ibra was Papa's nephew, you know, his son Aunty Safa, Papa's sister. Can Papa be the same Mas Ibra?"

Lalisa seemed confused to see the two. She stared alternately between the child and her husband.

"So this is about Ibra?" ask Dava.

Silent.

"Ibra is too childish by complaining everything is the same as you. It turns out he's not as old as he is." Dava snorted, throwing his face away while smiling mockingly.

"Then what if Ibra's Papa's niece? Why if he's Papa's sister's son?" Dava turned to Audi again, looking back at the girl with equally challenging views.

"You know what Papa said to Ibra?"

"No, right? Don't just conclude and eat people's words."

"It's true that Papa rejected Mas Ibra, right?" reply Audi. "Papa was even blatantly indifferent to him."

"Yes, why? Ibra came here to ask you, and of course Papa as your father has the right to do so" said Dava. "Beyond Ibra is Papa's nephew, when he comes as the man who wants to propose to you, the context is no longer a family matter."

Amidst the tension, Lalisa made a sound interjecting. "So when Ibra came here and asked for a serious chat with you about Audi, Mas?"

Audi looked at his mother. "Don't your mom know?"

Lalisa. "No. At that time Mama was busy preparing the door for the reunion event," he said confused. "In the meantime, Mama still doesn't understand. You guys talk about Ibra, Ibra lamar Audi. Di, are you dating Ibra?"

Silent. It's been caught, right? Free Audi also keeps its relationship with Ibra. Although he did not expect everything would be revealed in this way.

"Yes, Audi is dating Mas Ibra" replied Audi steadily. He looked hard at Dava. "And Papa just didn't bless me with Mas Ibra."

"Claudia." Dava blather. "The application is not a small thing and something as easy as you think. It's about a life partner, a partner who will accompany you during life, you can't choose a partner as arbitrarily as dating."

"So you mean, Audi just chose Mas Ibra as his girlfriend?"

Dava.

"Did Papa also arbitrarily make Mama as a girlfriend? Papa used to date Mama too, right?"

"Don't equate Papa and Mama with you and Ibra" Dava said. "Papa and Ibra are different. He's a soldier, Papa's a businessman. Papa can prioritize the family, he can't. Did you not see her previous marriage? He just failed to keep the family, are you sure Ibra wouldn't do the same if you were married? Think over there. Use your logic, not just put feelings forward."

Audi eyes dabble. "The bad father."

Dava rubbed his face rough. "Where can you tell Papa this is evil? Papa is like this for your good. Papa wants you to live safe and happy. Papa wants you to live with someone who can accompany you at all times. Papa doesn't want you to be lonely by marrying Ibra. Ibra is not necessarily his job, he can go anytime to carry out the task, you are just a number of all the important things in his life. Do you want to live with someone like that?"

"Maybe you think by dating, you already have Ibra. You are wrong, even if you marry her, Ibra still does not belong to you, but belongs to the country."

"Mas." Lalisa interjected, she rubbed her husband's biceps to stop pressing Audi who was now sobbing. "Enough."

Dava took a deep breath, then exhaled slowly. He rubbed his hand back while staring at Audi.

"Think carefully, Di. Papa like this does not want to mean evil to you or Ibra. Papa loves Ibra as a niece, but to marry you and be a daughter-in-law, Papa still objected."
