Doctor Ella Love Story
37. Keluaraga Pradana Residence

Ella opened her eyes slowly and the first thing she saw was Ardi's face right before her eyes. The man was sleeping in front of him peacefully. Me where? Ella spread her gaze around and found herself sleeping in her bed at the Santika hotel where she was staying.

How can I go back to the hotel? How did Ardi get here too? Ella got up from her sleep, sat on the bed and could be felt one hand held tightly by Ardi's hand. Ella was still astonished to find Ardi sleeping next to her. The man can even sleep soundly while sitting on the floor with his head resting on Ella's bed and his hand holding Ella's hand.

Ella's confusion grew when she realized she was wearing a black suit with a fresh fragrance of green. Fragrance of perfume that is usually used Ardi everyday. Ella flicked the bed cover that covered her body, she could see the plaster attached to the heel of her foot...What happened last night?

Ella tried to recall what happened last night when her consciousness had fully returned. When the intelligence has re-occurred in his brain, it makes him able to think and remember the events of yesterday...

Ella was so stupid about what she did yesterday. How could he just walk away from the party? How could he walk aimlessly around the city like a madman? How could he also end up cold in such a dimly lit garden?...

Clearly, many are confused to look for it. Especially Ardi, it was obvious that the man was worried about finding himself missing. And surely Ardi was out in town looking for where he was last night.

Gently Ella rubbed Ardi's hair and head. Ardi's handsome face while sleeping remains as adorable as ever. Patting her cheek gently, try to wake the man. "Mas, I'm Ardi. Wake up in the morning."

Ardi jumped in shock and opened his eyes. He blinked and opened his eyes to regain consciousness. "Ella? You awake yet? You okay?"

"Here ride. Must have been cold all night Ardi slept on the floor?" Ella patted her bed and asked Ardi to sit next to her.

"I'm not papa. How're you?" Ardi approached and took a seat next to Ella. Directed her right palm to Ella's face, and gently stroked the girl's cheek. It's warm, it's not as cold as yesterday. Ella's face was brighter this morning. Beautiful as always though Ella's eyes still look puffy because they cried too much last night.

"I'm Ok" Ella replied imposing her smile.

"Ella's...Dear ella, I'm sorry..."

"Yes..."

"Yes what?" Somehow Ardi became upset with Ella's reaction. This girl is too good, too good to be angry with her. Ella prefers to cry alone in silence like yesterday rather than get angry or vent all her emotions on Ardi.

Ardi doesn't like that, he doesn't like Ella having to endure it all alone. He also wanted to feel Ella's pain. I want to share all the feelings with him. Ella's attitude instead of making it better even further added to her guilt. Adding to his regret that he could not protect the girl he loved.

"You can complain, you can shout, you can be angry, you can cry with me, El...But don't believe me, I can't see you like this." Said Ardi expressed his uneg-uneg.

"By the way El! Let's talk about it all let you be relieved."

Ella was seen swallowing her saliva several times before opening her mouth. "Sick, it hurts so much. I know Ardi did it because he had to. I also know that Ardi still loves me...But in fact I still can't see you doing that with other women" Ella unwittingly melted her tears back. But somehow he felt relieved after revealing everything he felt to Ardi, as if some of his burden had been lifted off his shoulders.

Ardi smiled and patted the top of Ella's head fondly. "Next time don't gini again. I told you you could find me, Laras or Linggar. You ran away without that goal. Good thing you're not papa, I was worried about yesterday"

"But why should Sari?" Ask Ella.

"The Sari family is the Hartanto family who control the health industry in this eastern region. Family doctors are hereditary. They have three major hospitals in Banyu Harum, Jembar, and Bondowosi. Not to mention their clinics, pharmacies, and pharmaceutical companies that spread everywhere. Sari's grandfather, his father, even Maheswara Sari's brother is also a doctor, Mahes is now even a specialist heart school in Surabaya." Ardi explained about the Hartanto family.

"Didn't Mama mas Ardi not like a son-in-law who works?"

"Hmm Laras who said?... If Sari does not need to work, it is also over. He just needs to be the hospital director. Need a name alone do not need to join the work also can. Mama seemed to wish our family more firmly with the marriage of the two families. We can master the field of property and health later."

"Oh, so it's a political marriage?"

"Yes, you could say so. But don't think about it, as long as Sari and I don't agree then the marriage won't happen."

"But mama mas Ardi..."

"El, you once believed in me. This one time help you rely on me, let me take care of everything. You do not have to think too much, the important focus is just our relationship" said Ardi emphasized.

"But I don't want to marry without the parents' blessing. Especially a mother" Ella still doubts Ardi can change her mother's decision.

"We'll definitely get the blessing. Sooner or later" replied Ardi mantab.

When the day had gone by, Ardi invited Ella to pack her things and check out from the hotel. After it was beyond Ella's expectations, Ardi took her to the pradana family residence. For a farewell before returning to Genting.

"Mama and papa are there, Gus? Where are the Linggars and Barrels now?" Ask Ardi to Agus the butler before bringing Ella into the house.

"There's sir. The big lord and the big madam were in the back garden enjoying the tea. Miss Laras and Mr. Linggar in their respective rooms"

Ardi held Ella's hand with Erat as if determined to never leave Ella alone again in this house. He took Ella across the super spacious room that yesterday acted as a party hall. This room looks empty because it has been cleaned of all equipment and knickknacks party yesterday and the original furniture is still not returned as before.

They both walked through the marble staircase to the second floor. Then turn left through the corridors that separate the rooms there. Ardi knocked on one of the rooms and before long Linggar opened the door.

"Fright, pull Ella back" he said, pulling Ella into the room. "My room is right next door. I took a shower and changed my clothes first" She then left the two of them.

"Look yuk mbak" Invite Linggar to let Ella enter his room. The room is of course very neat considering the number of maids in this house. The Linggar Room looks more lifelike as a normal male ABG room. Very different from Ardi's room that seems plain and boring.

Some super hero posters hanging on the walls of the room are mounted wall papper with blue shades. A set of king-size mattresses on one side of the room, a study desk complete with a set of sophisticated computers in the other corner, is, a sofa and coffee table next to the tv complete with home theater and various game consoles are also there. While in another corner there is a music mini studio with a guitar and keyboard there. Nice room as it seems.

Linggar threw himself on the fur carpet in front of the tv and back struggling with joy stick game yes. "Please sit anywhere free" Linggar invited Ella while playing his football game.

"Where are you going?" asked Ella to sit on the carpet next to Linggar. From there he could see a wardrobe room in the room that was directly connected to the bathroom. There were several large suitcases in the room that seemed to have been filled.

"You're off. Get out of the house" Linggar replied casually.

"Huh? stop by?" Ella's confused.

"Hehehe I'm going to college from next month. In Surabaya, uner management department"

"Have a good luck. I thought you were in second grade High School" Ella recalled the last time she met Ardi's sister a few months ago.

"I'm a second-class mbak axeleration. Gini-gini I pinter you know" said Linggar bragging.

"Cool. It turns out that even though you pinter badboy as well" Ella praised, a little surprised to know Linggar turned out to have a brain that is very intelligent beyond all mischief. Linggar only replied to her with a light laugh. Baras opened the door and entered the room as well. Maybe it was Ardi who told him about Ella's arrival.

"Sir Ella, where was last night? We all nyariin, mas Ardi moreover to panic nyari mbak everywhere" said Laras as he approached Ella, sitting on the carpet.

"Sorry yesterday I took a short walk to the park" Ella replied making an excuse.

"Well, it's only natural that I was angry because of what happened last night. But at least don't suddenly disappear like that. Kasian mas Ardi who had to go around the city kayak yesterday." Laras again said with a stern tone.

"Udah is Mbak Laras. We all know that Ella was a victim yesterday" Linggar unexpectedly defended Ella.

"Yes too. All were also shocked to hear the sudden announcement of mama yesterday" Laras also confirmed. "How do you want Ella? Still want to fight for Ardi mas or give up until here?"

"We're still trying to get your mom's blessing. Well hopefully he can bless us sooner or later" Ella replied telling her his plan.

"If you've decided so it means you have to go all out. You must be prepared to bear all the consequences. Linggar and I here will help support you as much as we can" Laras concluded his speech dramatically.

"It looks like mas Ardi wants to try ngajak mama talk again. At lunch later. Better mbak Ella prepare mentally first before fighting hehe" Linggar added after completing one game.

"Thank you. You are indeed the best sister" Ella was moved to get the support of both Ardi's sisters.

Ella knew very well the purpose of Ardi bringing her here this time, of course to once again face her parents. But reminded so by Linggar instead of making himself more ready, even his guts increasingly shrinking and anxiety and fear re-invested him to meet with his two future parents-in-law.

~∆∆∆~

The second meeting with the prospective in-laws will be like how?...Can they get both of Ardi's parents to agree to her relationship with Ella?
