Figurant Wife
Ask Grandma for help
"Mah..." Dio returned to his mouth but Shanty quickly returned to voice.
"One more week come to Bandung because Mama will introduce you to the woman of Mama's choice." Said Mrs Shanty.
Dio could only growl annoyed in his heart hearing his mother's words. Dio finally let go of his parents from his apartment with a bad feeling. How not, there were many things that he had to consider right now if he still insisted on keeping Calista to be his future wife.
"Agh... shit!" Dio grabbed her hair in frustration. Dio finally went back into his apartment and closed the door.
Meanwhile, Mr. Shanty and Mr. Mahesa, who are now in the elevator, are seen looking at each other.
"Well, don't think too much about the kid. Papa doesn't want Mama to get sick because he keeps thinking about his future." Said Mr. Mahesa.
Shanty's mom nodded her head. "Mama just wants the best for Dio. All this time Mama had freed him to act as he pleased. And now is no longer the time to let her walk the wrong path." Answer Miss Shanty.
Mr. Mahesa rubbed his wife's hair. He knew that his wife loved her son very much and wanted only the best for their first son.
"Are we going straight to Mama's house to see Mama and Digo?" Ask Mr. Mahesa.
Shanty's mom nodded her head. "Mama misses our youngest son so much, Pah." Answer Miss Shanty.
"Papa too, Mah." Mister Mahesa answered with a smile on his handsome face.

Two days later, because Dio knew that his parents had returned to Bandung and would not be at his grandmother's house anymore, Dio decided to go to his grandmother's house. By bringing some of his grandmother's favorite foods, Dio hopes that his Grandmother will help his current problems.
"Dio?" The woman who was no longer young looked surprised to see the arrival of her first grandchild to her home.
"grandmother..." Dio extended his hand to his Grandma.
"Why come so early in the morning? Aren't you working?" Ask Grandma Eno.
Dio shook his head.
"Let's go in first." Take Nek Eno.
Dio nodded and stepped inside Grandma Eno's house.
"It's been a long time that you haven't been here. It's been almost three months since you've been here, not even looking at your sister." Said Nek Eno as he stepped towards the central space.
Dio felt sorry to hear it. "Pardon Dio for not visiting Grandma. Dio's work lately has been really time-consuming." Dio said
Grandma Eno just nodded as if believing in the words of her grandson. Though Grandma Eno had known that for the past three months Dio was always busy going out of the country to ask her lover to return to the homeland.
"What do you want to drink? Grandma's gonna make it for you." Grandma Eno.
"Let Auntie make you a drink for Dio." Dio said he didn't want to make his grandmother bother.
"All right." Grandma Eno said and asked the waiter at her house to make drinks for her granddaughter. Not to forget Grandma Eno asked the waiter to copy the food brought by Dio.
"So what's your purpose in coming here? There's no way you're coming to see your sister because Digo's at school right now." Grandma Eno.
Dio stared at his Grandma intensely. "grandmother... Dio came here to ask Grandma for help." Dio.
