Doctor Ella Love Story
39. Prospective in-laws (2)

Something wet and warm melted from Ella's eyes without her noticing. Tears that had been held back so hard. Finally it broke down as well and melted down her cheeks. Representing all his heartbreak.

Quickly wipe her tears with her palm. And held it as hard as possible the melt of tears to not come out again. I have to be strong, I can't cry...Not in front of them, the Pradana family.

Ella is confused not knowing how to answer questions from both parents Ardi. His heart grew more troubled and worried. Ella forced her brain to load faster in search of answers. But still always hit the wall before finding a way out. Before finding an answer.

Ardi glanced at Ella slowly. She realized Ella was shedding tears for a moment. She also saw Ella trying hard to wipe away her tears. Trying to stay strong and strong in front of his parents.

Somehow Ardi can also feel the same pain for the sake of seeing Ella so. His heart felt sliced, bleeding and inflamed. Ardi felt very helpless this time as well. Powerless to protect Ella, powerless to defy the will of her parents.

Is this indeed his destiny as the main heir of Pradana Group? What would all his possessions and wealth be if to own and protect the woman he loved alone could not? Why would he be the boss of thousands of employees if to choose a wife he loves alone can not he do?

"You two are still young. Think again about all the good and bad. With a cold head. Think about all the consequences that must be taken to get everything. You two just need some times to think. May time give you a way out." Erwin Pradana broke the silence again.

(*You both just need time to think)

Erwin knew full well that Ardi loved this girl in front of him. His eldest son was very obedient since the beginning, Ardi since childhood never did any mean mischief like Linggar. Ardi also always does whatever is said by his parents.

This time his son rebelled against them. Just for a girl. Well Ella is indeed very beautiful, kind, polite and intelligent. It is natural for any man to fall in love with her. I am willing to do anything to get her love.

"Your father is getting older, Ardi. It's starting to hurt too. Soon you will have to hold the core company. It is no longer time to sulk like this" Kartika said this time a little softened.

Kartika knew very well that he could not force Ardi with violence. At least he wants to remind the burden and responsibility that Ardi must bear as the first son of the Pradana family.

"It looks like Ella's son also doesn't want to rush to get married, right? Still want to go after Carier? Make what? If you want money and treasure Ardi can give you everything. Ten million? Twenty million? Thirty million a month? No problem." Kartika again focused her question on Ella. He also knew very well the type of woman like Ella. The type that will not be easy to follow.

"Not...It's not a matter of money at all" Ella felt a little humiliated. Do they consider her a matre girl? Did he approach Ardi because of his property? Ella did not even know before that Ardi was a sultan. She loves Ardi for who he is, just the way he is.

"Then what? Why you clean hard do not want to let go of your job. Isn't the main purpose of work for money?" Kartika is getting more urgent.

"I as a medical person don't think about money at all. I and most of my friends are driven in this field more driven by our sense of humanity and empathy...Not only take into account profits and losses like you who are engaged in business." Ella's subtle speech this time felt very jarring and roaring throughout the room.

All were silent, as if made aware by Ella's remark that there were some people who were sincere. Sincere to help fellow human beings though selflessly. The principle is of course very contrary to the principles espoused by business people such as the Pradana family.

"It seems like what papa said was true" Ardi interceded. Solve the silence that happened back there.

"Maybe we need some time. We just need some times to think and talk about this..." Ardi grabbed Ella's hand under the table. The hand of Ella that felt so cold. It was as if giving a signal to the girl that it was enough here that their conversation was just today.

"You're right. You guys just go through your relationship first. Talk carefully both. And let the times give you the answers." Erwin gave wise advice.

(*And let the time that will later give an answer).

"It's pa, ma. After this Ardi and Ella immediately return to Genting." Ardi moved out of his chair. He took Ella out of her chair, approached her parents and kissed Erwin and Kartika Pradana in turn.

"Go home often, Ardi. There are a lot of things in the company you want to discuss with you. So many things to discuss." He said after they both agreed.

"OK, Pa. I'll set the schedule again." Ardi replied before pulling and taking Ella away from her parents. He took the girl up the marble staircase and walked on until she entered Ardi's room on the second floor.

In the room Ardi was already waiting for them Linggar and Laras. The two Ardi sisters waited for them anxiously and anxiously. The two can also understand what is about to happen from the look on the face of Ardi and Ella who just entered the room. It seems their conversation is not going well.

"Fright, help bring Ella's bag down. All told me Agus told me to get my car ready." Ardi's orders on Linggar were directly obeyed by his sister without refuting. Linggar picked up Ella's prepared backpack on the sofa. Take him out of Ardi's room.

"Yes. Ella needs a break. Tomorrow we have to work again." Answer Ardi. "I'm back, yeah." Continue while gently patting the head of Laras with affection.

"We'll say yes." Said Ella while thrusting her hand to shake hands with Laras. But the girl hugged Ella's body very tightly, as if she did not want to separate from Ella.

"Sir Ella, the strong yes. You guys should stay together. Whatever obstacles stand in your way, you must be able to overcome them together." Baras.

"Wheel...Thanks to ya." Ella returned Laras' embrace and took it off later. He bit his lower lip. Trying hard to hold back the rumble in his chest that urged to drain back his tears.

"Be careful on the road. Don't speed it up, mas." Laras waved a hand to usher in the departure of the two of them.

Ardi again clasped Ella's hand and took the girl out of her room. Down the stairs, across the living room and out the main door of the house. Agus and Linggar were already waiting for them there. Agus gave the keys to the sports car pajero Ardi to him and the car was also stand by parked in front of the house.

"A real college, no. Don't play around anymore." Pamit Ardi on Linggar while patting his sister's shoulder.

"Ok mas's. Don't worry, I'm a convert." Answer the light Linggar. He knew full well that he might not be able to meet Ardi again until he left for Surabaya for college. "Mbak El, klo in Surabaya ntar I can stop by?" The Linggad turned to Ella.

"That's a damn thing. We'll play there." Ella answered enthusiastically.

"Oh that?...Did you dare to marry me when I wasn't in Surabaya?" Chirps Ardi sewot.

"Hehehe was calm, Linggar would invite Ella to sit there" replied Linggar able to make them all smile and laugh.

"We go first." Pamit Ardi got into his car. Ella immediately entered the car, sitting next to Ardi. Shortly thereafter the black car drove away from the Pradana family residence.

Ella and Ardi stayed silent for a long time without speaking. Somehow it felt too awkward for them to start a conversation. At times Ardi glanced at Ella, getting the girl as he pleased, with tears streaming down his cheeks. Ella nodded silently. "It's a flick, El?" Ardi tried to tease Ella.

"Heem," replied Ella lightly. He took a few strands of car tisue and watered his increasingly swift tears.

"You can cry until you are satisfied. You can cry, you can be fragile and weak in front of me, El. Don't be arrested again. Get everything out, spill all your feelings."

Ella remained unanswered, too busy to wipe away her tears. Cleansing his face from the sticky and salty liquid that never wants to stop flowing.

"I love you, El. I don't want to lose you." Ardi pointed his left hand towards Ella. He gently patted the girl's head and gently stroked her hair.

"Weight mas. I think it's too heavy we have to go through to be together."

"It won't be easy. But we can definitely get through it. Our love can end happily." Ardi said convincingly.

Ella was silent again unable to answer. His heart was too broken at this moment. Sadness feels peaked meet and stifle the chest. He can't think rationally right now. Too emotional to think and decide.

"Don't go, El. Don't disappear again..Don't leave me." Finally, only those words were able to be spoken by Ardi as a request from his deepest heart. He will fight, will definitely fight for his relationship with Ella.

But Ardi couldn't imagine parting ways with Ella. Can't imagine Ella disappearing from him again. How does he have to survive? How can he fight?

They both went back to silence. Ella fell asleep shortly afterwards, probably exhausted from crying too much. Too many tears for two days. While Ardi still has to contract driving his car to Genting. With all sorts of thoughts swirling around his head. Thinking and thinking without finding a solution. Makes it more frustrating.
