EMBRACE YOU: Presence & Poison
Episode 197's

...

“Don't talk about it, the important thing is now Hanna and aunt can enjoy the event tonight. Thank you for coming.”

“Before going out, I want us to take a photo first. Mom, please photo both of us!” Hanna clasped my left hand, pulling me quickly to where I was sitting to greet them.

For the next time we only take pictures a few times until another knock interrupts our activities.

“Log.” I said half screaming.

Another middle-aged woman whom I was actually waiting for his presence, finally came.

“Mother!!” I said it was nice to see you go in with grandma Fina, aunt Nuri, aunt Pia, aunt Yuan and uncle Ben.

They're all here!

“Icha! Oh my goodness you are so beautiful!” Aunt Yuan ran over to me, following the footsteps of mother in front of them.

“Tante Yuan! Happy aunt is here!” The two of us hugged each other, it felt like we hadn't seen this woman in a long time.

“Yoo! It turns out it's the same first one! How's Cha? She asked you to call her mom?” Mom asked me as her eyes looked at Aunt Marisa and Hanna.

“Hush, don't start!” Grandma Fina broke up the mother who actually ignored the mother.

“Then we will go to the hall.” Aunt Marisa said goodbye to me. I'm nodding.

“Udah finished? Pretend you don't know us?” Ask mom to stop the steps of the two women.

“Goodnight.” Aunt Marisa nods at mom's family.

“Well if nyapa gini will know. So I won't be in arrogant.”

“You—”

“Already Hanna, let's go.” Eventually the two women managed to get out of the room even though Hanna had to be dragged by her mother.

Grandma Fina and the others just shook their heads with mom's sewage attitude. While I took a long breath.

“Happy Icha, you got married tonight. Held once.” Said aunt Pia.

“Iya, we received his invitation earlier this afternoon.” Aunt Nuri chimed.

“What happened something, Cha?” Uncle Ben asked.

“No no! It was sudden because there was something in the Danendra.” family I replied as soon as the atmosphere turned awkward. It seems like the fact that I'm Evano's father's biological son was only discovered by all of them not long ago.

“Icha please do not trouble you guys to come because of sudden.” I smiled broadly, trying to find an atmosphere.

“No no.” They answered almost at the same time, except for the mother who had been silent looking at me.

.

..

…

I nodded and looked at all of them one by one disappearing behind the door. Even though mom hadn't been in the conversation, but seeing her come and watching me from the moment I entered, I think that's enough. At least I didn't say things that hurt me.

A typical click of a closed door sounded. The room instantly turned silent, contrasting with the faint sound of noisiness outside.

I exhaled a long breath, glancing at the wall clock that showed ten o'clock past thirty night.

Then another knock was heard, followed by an open door featuring the figure of Kirana's mother in the doorway.

“Icha.”

“Instated bun.” Mother smiled happily to see me, she entered and closed the door slowly.

“Beautiful one dear. Hows it? No problem with the dress, ‘kan?”

“No no! Icha likes.”

“Try mother view.” Mother asked me to turn around.

I chuckled softly and turned around to display my dress, then mother nodded as if satisfied with what she saw

“How dear? You nervous?”

“Iya bun.” I answered again sitting with my mother who was also sitting next to me.

“The makeup is okay, but still a little less, you look pale.” Mother frowned looking at my face.

I smiled and shook my head. Mother is very attentive and sensitive.

“It's enough bun.”

“Ah yes mother forgot, you will just come out of the hospital, the wound is still not healed.”

“Indeed a bit sick anyway bun.” Honestly answered.

“Then, you call doctor Stefan.” Mother immediately stood up but moved it stopped. He sat back and looked at me.

“Ko on them, Cha? Something bothering you?”

I looked down with a small smile, happy to feel the attention of a mother. “Nothing bun.”

“If it's nothing, try the same story mother.”

I glanced at him, thought for a moment and exhaled a long breath because my mother was looking at me seriously.

“Today there are so many realities that Icha must accept. About Evano's father's family. Icha also felt like a dream. The happiness that Icha feels too comes suddenly. Especially this wedding that was planned. Icha is just a little afraid if it turns out all this dream, one day Icha wake up and everything is gone.”

“No, don't think like that.”

“Icha happy with everything. The father's family also welcomed Icha well, the mother's family also accepted Icha as it is. You guys are so good that Icha doesn't know what to reply to you, really like a dream.”

“Darling, beautiful dreams that are sleeping flowers and real beautiful dreams are two different things. If the flowers sleep, they accompany the emptiness and come without cause while the beautiful dreams that become real are due to effort. Mother knows you get all this not without reason. Besides destiny, play,

you also tried to get to this point, ‘kan? Danendra's family, since the beginning you were destined to be Evano's daughter, nothing can change that fact, during your life, you even have to get through things that others might not be able to get through. You can be a successful woman in work and education in addition to family problems. It definitely wasn't easy.” Mother held my hand warmly. I nodded, my throat ached and my eyes suddenly heated up.

“Then your relationship with Bayu. You guys also live it not easy to get to this point. The point is, everyone has their own difficulties. Mommy knows, there must be someone who envies you, blatantly saying that you are lucky. Yes, you are lucky, but do not forget what efforts you have made so far to maintain it. Remember the first time Bayu brought you home, it was when you were in High School. Mommy knows that you are a good child, Bayu is good at reading someone so if Bayu trusts you and makes you his life friend, then mom will also support him.”

“Still bun already trust the same Icha.”

“Mother Bayu. Love him, love him, respect him and take care of him.” I smiled widely and nodded. My eyes were blurry because tears had gathered in the eyes.

“Grandfather Jeremy and grandfather Alvaro were initially very nervous about security for the event tonight.they hired a lot of people to guard every corner, monitor every CCTV and check everything. Your father and Rasha's father were also chatty, wanting everything to go according to plan but the tension in their faces was gone when they saw you earlier. The short drama you guys played on the page is really entertaining.” I laughed embarrassedly at your words.

“It's a bit embarrassing.”
