High School Bride
Grandma Ida's Request

A few minutes later, Grandma Ami went inside. I thought Grandma Ami went inside to make a drink for Grandma Ida, but she came to me instead.

" Nonik, Grandma Ida is here to see Nonik . He said there was something he wanted to say to Nonik," Grandma Ami said as she looked at me.

Randy and I immediately went wide to hear Grandma Ami's words. We were really surprised because it turned out that Grandma Ida knew I was here.

How did Grandma know I was here ? The question kept coming to my mind.

"Grandmother, how did Grandma Ida know that Nonik was here ?"randy asked with raised eyebrows.

" In fact, when you first introduced Nonik, Grandma already knew that she was his wife Juan, Grandma Ida's grandson. Grandma knew all that because Grandma Ida often confided in Grandma. Grandma was a friend confided in Grandma Ida. Now let's meet Grandma Ida in front of '" said Grandma Ami to take me out.

I followed him from behind. Upon arriving in front of me I saw Grandma Ida smiling at me. I then approached Grandma, grabbed her hand and kissed her back.

" Granny, how's Grandma doing ? " let me ask him who is currently beside me.

" The news is Grandma's fine. It's just that Juan's news is not okay, " said Grandma Ida while looking at me

My eyes immediately rounded hearing Grandma Ida's words.

" What happened to Juan 'Nek ? " me with a panicked face. Right now I'm so afraid something's happened to Juan. Or maybe Juan went crazy like Grandma Ami's neighbor ?

" Juan keeps looking for you . She was crying and very worried. Even his face also looks pale because all day he did not eat anything.Are you not sorry to see your husband like that ? " ask Grandma Ida to me.

" But I don't deserve to be with Juan 'Nek. "Reply while looking down. Still vividly remembered the words that Aunt Riri said to me yesterday.

" Why ? Is it because of Aunt Riri's words ? " ask Grandma Ida while looking at me sharply.

I exhaled slowly while looking at Grandma Ida.

"What Aunt Riri said is true. I'm just a poor man, not worthy to be with Juan. For marrying me Juan suffered,"

" Nonic, from Grandma's innermost heart, Grandma feels grateful to meet you. Thanks to you Juan became a responsible and independent man. If Juan hadn't met you maybe he just locked himself in his room every day, and squandered his money. Do not think too much about the words of Aunt Riri, because not necessarily Juan will accept it. When Juan lost both his parents, things were very bad. He just cried and shut himself up. Every grandmother would talk to him, he would always be quiet. Grandma at that time felt very confused how to. During this time Juan was only close to his late parents. He was so traumatized to be close to other people, because when he was ten years old no one ever kidnapped him . Many times Grandma and Aunt Riri asked her to talk but she just kept quiet. If Aunt Riri told him to, he just obeyed without even making small talk. He was like a walking statue to Grandma back then. Then when you first came to Grandma's house, that night Juan asked Grandma who Nonik was. He asked so question to Grandma . And Grandma was very happy because Juan finally wanted to talk to Grandma. After that Grandma never saw him cry . Grandma always saw him smile. Especially if you are late to come to Grandma's house, she must be pacing back and forth at the door waiting for your arrival. If you stay away from Juan now, somehow it is after this. Maybe it will be worse when he lost both parents," said Grandma Ide with teary eyes.

I could not feel my tears immediately dripping to hear Grandma Ida's story. Juan loves me so much. But I was so desperate to leave him.

" Nonik, please don't leave Juan! Don't listen to Aunt Riri. Aunt Riri spoke like that because she had bad intentions for Juan. Om Yuda and Aunt Riri want to control all the property of the deceased Juan. He wanted to drive Juan crazy and then kill him with drugs" Grandma Ida said, clasping my hand.

" Yes, Grandma. I promise I won't leave Juan" I replied, looking at Grandma Ida who looked worried.

" Juan is in danger. Aunty Riri and Om Yuda must have been looking for another way to hurt Juan" Grandma Ida said as she recounted everything that happened last night.

" Granny take it easy, I'll try to take care of Juan" I said, wiping away my tears.

" Then for a while Juan stayed here just the same as us. Because it is very dangerous if they live in kosan," Grandma Ami told Grandma Ida.

" Yes, Grandma. For a while Juan and Nonik stayed here only first. It's a crowded place here, so if someone has bad intentions for them, a lot of people will help him" Randy told Grandma Ida.

" Did I not trouble you ? " said Grandma Ida while staring at Randy and Grandma Ami .

" Which might trouble us. They are also big. All this time you always help me, so it's our turn to help you" said Grandma Ami while looking at Grandma Ida.

" All right, then thank you. I'll talk to my granddaughter. Hopefully he'll stay here,"

I was so surprised to see the clock on my phone. It turned out to be very noon. I glanced at Randy who was busy listening to Grandma Ami and Grandma Ida chat. Looks like Randy didn't realize it was noon either.

" I'm sorry, Grandma. Excuse me for going to school . It's noon" I said, cutting their conversation.

" I almost forgot to go to school" said Randy, patting his own eel.

Suddenly my phone shook, I saw Juan calling me. I immediately pressed the green phone icon to receive a phone call from Juan.

📞" Honey, where are you now ? Why did you leave yesterday ? You know, I'm so worried about you. Are you not in school now ?" juan asked with so many questions. From his voice I could feel that he was so sad and worried about me.

📞" Sorry ,Juan . I am in a hurry to go to school. I'll explain it at school, okay ? " i said to Juan

📞" Okay. Want me to pick it up ? " say

📞" No need. I'm currently together with my friend," replied I who immediately disconnected the phone call just like that.

" Randy, let's go hunting. It's been a long time," I grumbled with a frown.

" Yes.iya.sabar dong ! " reply to Randy who immediately started the engine.
