Zeo has to change things up.
And once he found the family of Adhira gathered in the family room.
Zeo emboldened himself.
***
"Om, tan" called Zeo when she found her father and mother-in-law in the guest room.
Devan who was also there immediately looked at his brother-in-law. Feeling somewhat amazed as this was the first time her sister's husband had started the conversation. In the sense of saying hello, all this time his brother-in-law was more silent and behaving disinclined.
"Yes, why Ze?" ask Mira smiling. Indeed, since Zeo was a little willing to help Adhira. Mira started to change with him. Although not very significant but at least his mother-in-law was willing to accept it.
"Zeo wants to talk a little bit with Om and Auntie" said Zeo straightforwardly.
Mira glanced at her husband, "Jaudah here sits Ze, what are you talking about?" tanya Mira nudged Deni's arm so that her husband would listen to what Zeo said.
Devan who felt the atmosphere start to change also rose from his seat. He doesn't want to disturb. Although he was a boy, but at least he knew manners.
And after Devan left, Deni looked at his daughter-in-law coldly. "What are you talking about?"
Zeo looked into his in-laws eyes, showing the seriousness of the words he was about to say. "I think, this week me and Adhira have been quite burdening om and aunt."
"I don't feel burdened with my child. But if you feel yourself burdening this family, I don't deny" cut Deni who immediately got a slow blow from Mira.
Zeo smiled faintly, knowing that his in-laws were insinuating him.
"I know, but whatever now Adhira is my wife. I think it's time we became independent with our lives." Zeo looked at his two in-laws, "I intend to bring Adhira to live with me in our own house."
"Do you think I'll release my daughter to you after everything you did to my daughter" asked Deni rhetorically.
Deni stayed for a while, "It doesn't rule out the possibility that you hurt my daughter even more after you take her away. Feeling most powerful later, you think I don't know what's in your head"
"Mas, don't-"
"I spoke as a Mira father" Deni said coldly.
Mira was silent, she was completely desperate with her husband and daughter-in-law.
"I know I started with a mistake, but if I keep wallowing in that mistake then when will I and Adhira change? I know om and aunt can't accept me completely, but I'm in the stage of wanting to change it."
Deni and Mira started to stare at Zeo slightly softened.
"I intend to start everything from the beginning, I do not want Adhira to hide the same om and aunt, in the sense that I want Adhira also open with me, start everything with me. I want Adhira to think openly later, not keep nailing with om or aunt,"
Mira and Deni fell silent, inwardly confirming his daughter-in-law's speech. During this time Adhira always helped in everything, then if it continues so when the scavengers are open-minded.
"I haven't been able to fully accept Adhira in my life, but at least I'm beginning to realize that Adhira and our son are part of my life, part of my responsibility. And that responsibility is not just me taking a day or two, but forever."
"What are all those things you can't get in this house? Are you depressed? Not comfortable?" Syndir Deni, "Actually if you really intend you can start everything this durumah"
Zeo paused for a moment to catch his breath and made a determination.
"Like om who wants to make a palace and a life for his family - I also want to do it with Adhira."
Deni and Mira were silent for a long time, so did Zeo.
"Where?" deni said breaking the silence.
Zeo looked at his father-in-law not understanding.
"Where are you moving?" reset Deni.
"For a while until I have enough income, we'll stay in my apartment first."
"Apartment?" tanya Mira who was directly possessed by Zeo.
"Whose owner? Renty?"
Zeo shook his head, "Papa's, "
"keep your job?" Tanya Mira hesitated.
"I will work part time in papa branch company. During college tan."
"You're still in college?" this time it was Deni who asked.
"Yes" said Zeo.
"Adhira uda knows about this?" ask Deni.
Zeo shook his head, "not yet."
"You should talk to Adhira first. Don't you want to build good communication?" deni said somewhat insinuatingly.
Zeo nodded, "Later after this I will tell Adhira" Zeo said again.
"Aunty doesn't know in the future, but aunt always supports whatever your efforts to improve your relationship Ze." Mira said that made Zeo smile. He feels very appreciated.
"Where's Adhira?"
"Just like his friends." Mira said to her husband.
"Oh,"
After that the in-laws and son-in-law fell silent while staring at the television screen that continued to light up with many thoughts in their minds.
Deni and Mira who feel unwilling and Zeo who increasingly feel shoulder and responsibility burdensome.
Zeo sighed softly, it seemed that after his graduation day was three more days later, Zeo would really have his prestige. Ask for help from her father. And release his freedom. For the sake of, this responsibility he carries
