Your time is up


"Let's eat first, Dio. It just so happened that Mama and Papa were buying you some food." Said Ms. Shanty while thrusting a box of food at Dio.


"Dio is not hungry. Dio will eat it later." Answer Dio.


Miss Shanty put on her sad face. "It turns out you've changed a lot since you lived alone here, Dio. Usually you always want to eat the food you bring." Said Mrs Shanty.


Dio let out a long breath. Not wanting to make his mother was too long to sit, Dio finally chose to eat the food that Mama brought it.


Ms. Shanty smiled to see her son who was obedient. He went to the kitchen to get a drink for Dio.


Fifteen minutes passed, Dio had finished his meal. He also moved to the kitchen to dispose of his food waste while wanting to throw away his wishes that he had been holding since.


"He looks sweet like that." Shanty said to Mr. Mahesa.


Master Mahesa nodded in his affirmation. "Since you always said sweet boy." Her speech.


Ms. Shanty smiled then nodded confirming it.


Dio seemed to have returned from the kitchen. He sat on the sofa facing his parents. "Why not tell me first if Mama and Papa will come here?" Ask Dio.


"Because we wanted to make a surprise for you. You must be happy not with Mama and Papa coming here?" Ask Ms. Shanty.


No. gabe. Dio replied, but only in the heart.


"Dio?" Shanty's mom is back.


"Of course Dio is very happy, Mah." Reply Dip forced his smile.


"Dio, what about your efforts over the past three months?" Ask Ms. Shanty who now has a serious face.


Dio could only clench in his heart. For too long the two parents were mince-talking because this is what the intention of the arrival of both parents here.


"Can't you talk about something else first?" Ask Dio.


Miss Shanty quickly shook her head. "Mama can't wait for your answer." Shanty replied honestly.


"Give Dio three more months of extra time." Dio.


Shanty smiled cynically hearing that. "There's no extra time or compensation whatsoever, Dio." Press Miss Shanty. It's true that he wanted to give time to his son because Shanty believes that the results obtained by Dio remain the same.


"Mah..." Dio lowered his tone hoping that his mother could feel sorry for him.


"Three months is long enough for you to bring your woman before Mama and Papa Dio. And right now Mama wants to collect the promise you told your grandmother a few years ago." Said Mrs Shanty.


"I don't want to get married other than with Calista, Mah." Press Dio.


"No offers, Dio." Bu Shanty looked at his son with a beavering face. Seeing that made Dio finally choose silence and let his mother back up the sound.


"You must marry the woman of your choice or do not consider Mama, Papah, your sister and Grandma part of your family. All this time Mama has been humbled to let you live the path you choose yourself even to the point of ignoring the company of our family. But this time Mama doesn't want to let you take too long to get married. Marry the woman of Mama's choice or you're no longer part of Mahesa's family." Said Mrs Shanty firmly.
