"Berry... " Bass voice Marco surprised Berry, mr.'s assistant. LG who was sitting relaxed in the mini mansion garden while having an afternoon coffee.
Marco just arrived at the mansion from the company. He immediately looked for grandfather to talk about something important.
"Yes, sir... " Berry stood up and bowed respectfully to his young master.
"Where's grandpa?" Ask Berry. "I'm looking into his study, but grandpa's not around."
"Ooh... Big master again to the stables, sir. Said the steward of the stables, one of the great lord's beloved horses was sick." said Berry respectfully. Marco just nodded and went back inside.
"Bi. please make me some mocca coffee. Take her to the room." Marco's orders to the housekeeper who has been very long devoted to mr. LG. All the household assistants recruited mr. LG from the city x, the hometown of the late beloved wife. Aunt nodded obediently.
Marco went into the room, immediately took off his suit and office clothes and went straight into the bathroom to wash off the sweat from this morning.
After the bath, Marco who looked fresh wiped his wet hair using a small towel and walked towards the balcony. There's a cup of mocca coffee in there. He took the coffee and sipped a little. A bitter and sweet sensation in the mouth. Just like life. There is bitter but there is sweetness too. Depends on everyone who is doing.
Marco looked far ahead. Tonight he has to make a decision to marry Icha. He doesn't want to buy any more time. He will talk to his grandfather and his parents who happen to be in Jakarta.
tok.
There was a knocking on the door. Marco walked up to the door and opened it.
"What's wrong?" Marco asked to see Berry standing in front of the door.
"Call your grandfather, sir." Sahut Berry's.
Marco just nodded. He went back into the room and closed the door. Dry a towel on the balcony near the bathroom, briefly scramble her hair in the mirror and out of the room down the stairs to the 1st floor. Apparently, his grandfather and his parents were already in the living room.
Marco who appears in a white shirt and home shorts appears younger than his age. He immediately sat down beside his grandfather opposite papa Adam and mama Sania.
"Daddy wants to talk about your wedding." Adam was serious. Marco and Grandpa looked calm. Marco also let Adam talk first.
"Daddy and Mommy have decided next week you should marry Valencia. Daddy's met Val's parents. They want this marriage done immediately. Moreover, you guys have been in a relationship for a long time." Firm daddy who impressed forced the will. Marco listened with a cynical smile that was hard to understand.
"Mr Christo also did not dispute the incident the other day at his home. As long as you and Valencia get married." Adam went on to explain the results of his meeting with Valencia's parents.
Grandfather smiled widely and nodded his head, seeming to scorn Adam's report. What can he do if Marco still does not want to marry Valencia? Bedbugs just pretended to play threatening. Grandpa muttered in his heart.
"Daddy and mommy are sure Val is the right woman for you." Adam continues. "Grandfather also agrees and blesses your relationship with Val. Isn't that right, cake?" Seeing Grandpa smiling happily, Adam thought the old man supported his decision.
"You grandfather is up to Marco. After all, later he who undergoes. As long as the woman brings a positive aura to Marco." Answer grandfather casually.
"Mommy hope you don't disappoint mommy, son. Marry Val whose seeds are clear weights. We don't want you to be trapped by a woman who's just playing with your money." Tukas mama Sania at length makes Marco more cynical in a smile.
"So, prepare.... Next week you're getting married. Do not be too tired, keep your health to stay fit in the next day. Don't worry, daddy and mommy will take care of everything." Adam is confident. He was sure his son would not dispute his orders.
Marco stared intently at his parents. He folded his arms around his chest and leaned his back against the back of an expensive sofa.
"You guys done talking?" His voice began to sound. Adam and Sania looked at each other. The cold aura was greatly impressed by Marco's way of speaking.
"I'm getting married next week... " Reveal Marco made mama Sania smile broadly and hug her husband from the side. He is happy not to be upset because he will finally have a son-in-law according to his criteria.
"But not with Valencia!" Marco continues.
The deg!
Automatic Adam and Sania jumped in shock. They saw Marco with a face that could not be imagined.
"You shut up first! Let Marco talk. From now on he just kept quiet to hear your babbling. Now it's your turn to listen to him." Timpal's grandfather to his eldest son, Adam. Adam was silent.
"First of all, I really wanted to get married but not Valencia. I'm gonna marry the girl I love." Marco is calm. "Secondly, the girl I'm about to marry comes from a family whose weight is very clear." Marco is full of emphasis. "Third, she's not a treasure-crazed woman either and up to this point she didn't ask for anything strange that could drain my money." Continue to break the heart.
Adam and Sania's faces became tense. Anger is beginning to take hold of Adam. Her face flushed. However, they could do nothing while grandfather was still standing beside Marco as a defender.
"And the last one... " Master still speaks. "I'm not a child you can manage as well as your heart." Lirih Marco while holding back his anger. "Oh yes. If daddy and mommy are ready, you can take care of the concept of marriage like your wish." Racau Marco. And made my grandfather laugh.
"That's it, Adam, who wants to be married to Marco, not you. Why do you two have to arrange for her partner?" Grandfather chirped still in a calm and relaxed tone. "Let her marry the woman of her choice."Grandpa again.
"Can't, Dad... Marco should marry Valencia who is of the same level as us." Mama Sania's tough fast.
Marco laughed cynically. Grandfather who had been trying to be a mediator suddenly seriously looked towards mama Sania.
"What level do you mean?" Grandpa asked, starting to get emotional. "You live in a great country with great progress, but dear.your way of thinking is still very old fashioned." Grandpa's cheer gets Mama Sania cornered. "Before judging people, look back, Sania. Who and where are you." Adam and Sania were silent, a thousand languages. Sania bowed embarrassedly with a reddened face. Marco was shocked by his grandfather's sarcasm. However, Marco agreed with grandfather's opinion.
Indeed, mama Sania was born from a wealthy family. However, because of the affair committed by his father, aka his grandfather Marco, makes the Sania family messy and bankrupt. Fortunately, Mr. LG does not look at someone from possessions and a bad past, therefore he blesses the relationship of Adam and Sania because they love each other.
And today he's talking about the 'level' of someone who made mr. LG little ride apitam. However, the man over 80 years old was still maintaining intonation so as not to cause a commotion in the luxurious mansion. He did not want all the arts to wake up and witness this fruitless quarrel.
"What's your decision, Marco?" Ask your grandfather to his favorite grandson. Adam just glanced annoyed at the two other people of that age. It's worth Marco being grandfather's favorite grandson because of his two children and all his grandchildren, only Marco can understand the grandfather's mind. They both have the same character and nature.
"Next week I'll marry Marissa, cake." Marco Sahut. His eyes were fixed on the two parents in front of him. "I wish my grandfather would come with me to propose to Marissa to her parents." Marco continued with eyes still looking at Adam and Sania. He deliberately spoke out because he wanted to know the reaction of the two of them. Adam stared intently at his only son. The son who is closer emotionally to his father, mr. LG, than with him and his wife who incidentally is Marco's biological parents.
"Surely.. grandpa will accompany you to propose granddaughter-in-law grandfather." said grandfather reassured Marco.
"You two get ready to propose to Marissa. There is no rejection." Press Grandpa on Adam and Sania.
After saying so, grandfather got up from his seat and invited everyone to dinner. Although each is with a different heart, but they still obey grandfather's orders. Adam and Sania were still silent a thousand languages held anger in the heart.
"We're talking about Marco's wedding plans at the dinner table." Grandfather walked first to the dining table, pulled his great chair and sat down quietly. Aunt Tini, the oldest art in the mansion, was already considered a family by grandfather and Marco. He was in charge of spooning rice and side dishes to grandfather's plate. He already understands the portions and the menu of the grandfather's meal.
"What about the dowry, Marco?" Ask grandpa before putting a spoonful of rice in his mouth.
"I have to talk to Marissa first, cake." Answer Marco.
"There is no need to pay expensive dowry." Finally Sania's voice sounded quite sniffy. Mr. LG laughed at his daughter-in-law's words.
"You don't have to worry, Sania. My man-granddaughter-to-be is a simple girl. I know him well." Sahut grandpa deliberately insinuated Sania. The socialite-style woman instantly fell silent. He continued eating even though it felt bland.
"Oh yeah.. You two don't know Marissa, do you? She's a sweet girl from town x. Your mother's hometown, Adam." Continue cheerful grandfather remembering the granddaughter of a daughter-in-law who came from the same city as the late wife.
Marco laughed sarcastically at his mother. He wondered why he had parents who were so different from his grandfather's thought.
"I'm also sure Marissa doesn't want an expensive dowry." Marco's tandas relaxed. "Even if he asks for an expensive one, I will definitely grant his request." he continued, enjoying his food.
"hahahahahahaha. After becoming your wife, she is also entitled to your property."
The deg!
It was a blow to the heart of Sania and Adam. Fortunately Sania was still in a sitting state, if only he was standing right now, then it was certain that he would faint hearing about worldly treasures that would be controlled by his former candidate.
"alright... It's a final decision. I'm going to propose to Marissa next week." Marco said at the end of his mouth. He took a glass of water and drank it to the toilet.
Marco immediately got up from his seat, said goodbye to grandfather and headed to the room.
