Figurant Wife
Why are you here?
"Soliciting help?" Announced Grandma Eno and embraced Dio in response. "What help is Dio?" Ask Grandma Eno.
"Grandmother, Dio wants Grandma to talk to Mama to cancel her intention to marry Dio to the woman of her choice. Grandma knew right now that Dio already had a lover? There's no way Dio would accept Mama's offer because it would hurt Dio's lover." Said Dio with a face.
Grandma Eno sighed at the request of her granddaughter. "Dio, sorry for this time Grandma can't help you. What your Mama is asking for right now is one of Grandma's requests to you a few years ago. You didn't forget it, did you?" Ask Grandma Eno.
Dio leaned back weakly. "Dio remembered it, Grandma." Answer Dio later.
"If you still remember it means you still remember your promise a few years ago. You said you'd obey Grandma's request one last time." Grandma Eno. Until now Grandma Eno has not billed the promise to Dio because Grandma Eno feels better her son Shanty who said it directly to Dio.
"Grandmother, Dio will marry but not the woman of Mama's choice." Dio.
Grandma Eno shook her head. "Grandmother disagrees with you right now, Dio. Grandma already knew even the woman your mother chose for you. That woman is a kind and very loving woman. Grandma was sure that her presence in your life would make you happier." Grandma Eno.
"grandmother..." Dio felt even more frustrated that there was not a single person to side with him.
"Six years is not a short time, Dio. You've let your lover go after his ideals without caring about you. And now we are waiting for something uncertain. Grandma's been dying to have a great-granddaughter and Grandma's already agreed with your choice." Said Grandma Eno firmly.
"grandmother... Dio please help Dio." Pinta Dio clenched his hands together.
Unfortunately, Dio's request to get back the headband sign of rejection from Grandma Eno.
Why isn't everyone on my side? Why does everyone look so annoying?! Grunts Dio in heart.

A week had already passed from the arrival of Bu Shanty and Mr. Mahesa to the Capital. And today is the time that Bu Shanty decided on Dio to come to Bandung to be introduced to the woman of his choice.
When he was in front of the house of his parents who were in Bandung, Dio was confused when he saw the car owned by his sister Digo parked in front of the house of his parents.
"Is Digo here?" Dio asked as he stepped towards the door of the house.
"Hi Brother Dio." Say hello to Digo when he just opened the door for Dio.
"Digos? You really are here?" Dio asked in surprise.
"Yes. Of course I'm here. I came here with Grandma." Answer Digo.
"Why did you come here?" Ask Dio.
"Weird question. Of course I came here to attend Sister's and Sister's future wife's application." Answer Digo.
"What?! Proposal?"
