Dating After Marriage
Chapter 152 (Season 2 )

Zinnia was still silently staring at the words of Edward who had not seen the television.

"Is Uncle so busy that television shows never watch?"

"Haha! you know for yourself, if there are Uncle patients every day, so Uncle has to take care of them, son!"

Zinnia smiled sweetly at Edward.

"You just woke up, honey?" salma asked Zinnia.

"No, Aunty! actually I've been up from earlier, but I'm still lazy to change clothes," said Zinnia smiling clumsily while scratching his neck that does not itch.

Zinnia suddenly recalled that he had to contact his personal assistant.

Zinnia approached her parents to kiss their cheeks in turn. "Morning Mom, Dad!"

When he finished, he faced Edward and Salma.

"Zinnia went upstairs first, huh? there are important things to be done, "he said as he walked towards the top floor of his house.

Edward smiled as he looked at his son-in-law who ran up each step of the stairs.

"He slept upstairs?" ask Edward.

"Yes, he's sleeping upstairs, why?" ask Arnon suspiciously.

"Just like, William! he also slept on the top floor! huh, today's children, love the room on the highest floor, even though we are old, feet ache if you have to go up and down stairs every day," explained Edward to Arnon.

Everyone who was in the living room could only smile at the words of the Doctor who had a slight wrinkle on his face.

"May I ask you guys a favor?" edward asked with a serious face.

"Solicit what please?" arnon asked in full search, because he knew that if Edward's face was serious like this there must be something important that he would say.

"I wanted to propose to Zinnia to be my son-in-law" said Edward, who made all eyes point to him, including the wife's eyes.

"What are you saying, honey? the joke you made was not funny" Salma said in the middle of the silence that struck the room because Edward's speech sounded like he was joking but the tone of the voice of the handsome former doctor was very convincing.

"I'm not kidding, I'm serious about that, and Melati also once betrothed the two of them, and William accepted, right?"

Edward stared at Melati and Arnon who they both knew about the match.

"Darling! you don't joke, it was just a joke as a kid" Salma told her husband.

"For me it's no joke, honey! I actually also agreed with their childhood matchmaking, because William was already infatuated with the woman, so I couldn't say this to him long ago," explained Edward staring at his wife, then switch towards Melati and Arnon.

"Hows it? do you guys agree? please help our family, Ar, Mel! tomorrow's wedding will be titled and there's no time left to find a suitable companion for William other than, Zinnia!"

Arnon and Melati exchanged looks. They still can't decide at the moment.

"All right! I'll try to think about your offer, but I don't promise to accept it because I have to discuss it with Melati and most importantly I have to ask, Zinnia! he wants it or not" Arnon told Edward.

Edward took a long breath. "All right! I'll wait for the answer later this afternoon! I hope your family can help solve our family problems and I'll go home first" Edward said with a lethargic face.

Before Salma followed her husband's footsteps, she approached Melati.

Salma clasped Melati's hand tightly. "I would love Zinnia as much as my own son if you and Arnon would accept our proposal" Salma smiled gently at Melati.

Melati turned her head towards her husband, then she smiled at Salma. "I will try to find a way out of your family's troubles if Zinnia refuses this matchmaking."

Salma smiled with a slightly disappointed look because of the words of Melati who seemed to have predicted if her daughter would reject this marriage.

"We'll say goodbye first." Salma turned around following her husband who was in front of Melati's yard.

Edward's car came out through the gate. Melati and Arnon looked at each other. "How is this?" tanya Melati worried.

"I know that William is a good boy and he is also very well established to be a future husband, Zi! but we ask our daughter first, she is willing or not" Arnon told his wife.

"We're going upstairs now" Melati's pinta pulled her husband's hand towards the third floor.

Both of them were already upstairs right in front of Zinnia's room door.

Tok tok tok tok

"Zi! open the door, honey!"

Melati knocked on her daughter's room door.

Chequelek

The sound of the door opening. Her daughter had changed into a casual dress. "What's up, Mom?" zinnia asked with her forehead beginning to shrivel perfectly when she saw the father at the door of her room as well.

"Daddy's here too?" asked Zinnia again who was surprised by the whereabouts of the father.

Arnon looked seriously at his daughter.

Zinnia immediately opened the door of his room wide. It seemed to indicate that both parents could enter his room.

Arnon and Melati went straight into the princess's room, then sat down on the sofa that was in Zinnia's room.

Zinnia chose to sit away from her parents. He sat on the bed, with his legs folded perfectly. Do not forget his favorite bolster as a focus of his elbow.

The girl did not remember if her elbow was injured until she suddenly complained of pain, "Oh!"

Melati panicked instantly rushed towards Zinnia. "You all right, son?" jasmine asked with an anxious look on her face while looking for the part that hurt until Zinnia complained of pain.

"I'm fine, Mom! just a small wound," explained Zinnia to his mother so that the mother does not worry about him.

"Why are you getting hurt?" asked Arnon to open his voice.

"Yesterday at the airport, there was a little incident, Dad! but it's okay, just misunderstanding."

"So what will Daddy talk to me?" ask Zinnia curiously.

"You're applying to be the future wife of, William!"

Zinnia's face was shocked to hear his father's words. "Daddy don't joke! he already has a candidate and I don't want to be called a destroyer of people's relationships, let alone they're getting married tomorrow."

"The future wife ran away and you ...."

"What! a run? what the fuck, Dad! dad says he's an established guy? but why would his future wife run away? something must have gone wrong" Zinnia said in a full voice.

"Daddy doesn't know why his wife-to-be ran away, which is why you obviously have to help the Pattinson family, Son!"

"No want! I don't want to be a substitute! surely our marriage will not be blissful, there will be only inner torment! just like any novel I've read, the surrogate always eats the heart because it's the man who doesn't accept it as a substitute and I don't want to experience it all, Dad! did Daddy want your daughter to be thin and sickly," explains Zinnia who subtly wants to reject this matchmaking.

Instead of being angry, Arnon and Melati smiled, even the actor who had begun to fade his good looks laughed.

"You're reading too many novels and watching dramas so this is how it is, who said that initially arranged marriages did not end happily? proof, Mommy and Daddy! now we can have two hearts" said Arnon who got a sharp look from his wife. "Darling! are you nostalgic?" ask Melati.

Arnon only smiled in response to his wife's question.

Melati gently rubbed her daughter's back lovingly. "Darling! Mommy won't force you to marry, William! but Mommy just wanted you to know, when Mommy gave birth to your sister, Arya! mommy was bleeding and the blood in the hospital was running out! luckily Aunty Salma had the same blood type as, Mommy! he immediately donated his blood without a second thought! because at that time, Grandpa Hadi was having a project out of town, Mommy just wanted you to know, all the decisions are in your hands, son! because you're going to run the household later," explained Melati to her daughter, but actually she also wanted to persuade Zinnia.

"Mommy said she wouldn't force me? but this is what? tell me about Aunty Salma's services! huh, that's the same as you subtly persuaded me, Mom!"

Zinnia took a long breath. "Do you really want me to marry that man?" ask Zinnia.

"We just want what's best for you, baby! he's a good guy! Daddy's known her since she was little" Melati said, staring at her daughter's face with confidence.

"But I'm still suspicious, Mom!"

Forehead Jasmine frowned perfectly. "Suspectedly? suspect what, honey?" jasmine asked who was confused by Zinnia's thought.

"Don't his future wife run away because her face isn't as handsome as it used to be! it could be that the woman wants to be in a relationship with him because the man is rich" concluded Zinnia.

"Haha!"

Arnon's laughter broke instantly after Zinnia finished speaking.

"Daddy why?"

"You're the reason, baby! your way of thinking is not right! William is handsome, even very handsome."

"Daddy lied to you? where maybe a handsome man in living run by his future wife," chirped Zinnia sekhenya.

"The wife-to-be is stupid" said Arnon casually.

"It looks like you're eager to make that man your son-in-law, Dad!"

"Of course, Baby! he's a handsome, well-established man! less what else?"

"I don't want to marry her, Dad!"

"If you don't want to marry her, it's okay, son! our age has already begun to age and our lives will also soon ...."

"OK stop, Mom! I'm going to marry her and Mommy should never think strangely" Zinnia said of her mother.

Arnon and Melati smiled. "Thank you, baby!" hugging Zinnia.

"Mommy sure! you'll be happy, but it just takes time and process, son!" rubbing soft Zinnia hair.

Zinnia tightened his arms to her mother, while Arnon smiled victoriously.
