The atmosphere in the family room suddenly quiet after Elza's last question was aired to her father. Of course, Benny just kept quiet with a look of disbelief. Really, this was not part of his plan. He was made a fool of by the actions of his own son. All the plans are neatly arranged, now messy because of the hasty attitude that Elza did.
"Why is Papa silent? It wasn't that time that Papa told me that Papa liked Fina's mom" Elza said in a loud voice.
The hijab-wearing girl was wide-eyed after hearing Elza's shocking statement. He did not know whether the little boy was talking seriously or just plain nonsense. However, judging from the look in her eyes, Fina was sure that Elza was telling the truth.
"Sir," muttered Fina with a gaze that could not be separated from Benny. The hijab girl needs an explanation from the master.
Benny was fixated on the look in the eyes of the girl of his dreams. All the words he used to say to the women who became his prey suddenly disappeared. Benny was made clumsy by his own son. In fact, all this feels more than getting a first girlfriend.
"Elza to the room first. Papa wants to talk to Mbak Fina," said Benny after waking up from daydreams.
"Adult chat yeah, Pa. I have to go to the room." Elza looked at Benny with curious eyes.
"Yes. It's up to Elza to go whose room, of course Elza should not listen to Papa and Mbak Fina's chat," Benny said as he rubbed his son's thin hair.
Without protesting again, Elza immediately left the living room. He ran to his babysitter's room. Now there are two adults who are only silent in their minds.
"I need an explanation, sir. Honestly, I am not comfortable with this situation" Fina said with her head down.
Only the breath of the handsome widower sounded there. There was no answer to the unrest Fina was feeling at the moment. Benny had completely lost his line of words, seduction and ways to avoid this situation.
"Yes, I did tell Elza, if I like you and I want to marry you" Benny said without taking a look at the face.
The heart beat of the hijab girl was suddenly irregular after hearing a statement from Benny. He did not know how to behave, as all of this he had never expected before.
"I told Elza this wasn't just a joke. I'm serious about this" Benny said firmly.
Instantly Fina straightened her head. He looked intently at Benny as he still could not believe all this, "why should I like it? Why should I want you to marry me?" scowl Fina without taking her eyes off that handsome face.
"Because only you deserve to be the mistress of this house. Elza and I both want you" Benny said confidently.
"Sir, getting married is not easy. Why did you tell Elza about all this. She must have hoped that if everything came true," Fina refuted with a nagging look.
"I do have high hopes for you, Fin. I have feelings for you. So what else makes this not easy?" ask Benny lightly.
"My feeling! You also have to think about how I feel, because marriage must be based on love. Both must have the same feelings in order to build a happy household." Fina did not accept the thought of Benny, because it seemed pushy and heartless.
The girl threw her face the other way after hearing the question. She didn't know how to answer, "Pak Ben doesn't deserve to marry me. There are still many women who are more worthy to be your wife" said Fina without daring to look at Benny.
"But they don't deserve Elza. I'm not married to myself, Fin. I want my son to feel the affection of the mother figure and you are the mother who deserves Elza" explained Benny.
"I don't want to get married, sir. I had to pay for my sister's college. There is a lot of burden that I bear on my family" Fina said firmly. The girl seemed heavy to accept Benny in her life as a couple.
"Don't worry about that. Your family is my responsibility. I'm going to pay for Nisa's college until graduation" Benny said firmly.
Fina smiled wryly at Benny's statement. He couldn't just trust Elzayin's father. Many fears are present in the head of the hijab girl if it comes to a relationship with Benny.
"Why do you think like that? As if everything can be lived easily with the money you have. Marriage is not just for fun, sir. It takes a strong mental readiness to keep the household intact and happy" Fina said in a trembling voice.
"I really love and love Elza, but that doesn't mean I can be her mother, sir. I'm not necessarily going to be the perfect mom for her" Fina complained as she looked at Benny with dewy eyes. His voice was still trembling as he was holding back the burning feeling in his chest.
Benny rubbed his face rough after hearing everything Fina said. One thing was certain, the girl sitting not far from him was unable to accept his feelings. However, all this does not make Benny just back away. He's getting excited about getting Fina, somehow.
"alright. I won't force you to step into marriage anytime soon. At least take my feelings. I've harbored feelings for you for a long time, but I hold back from revealing them because I'm afraid you're leaving" Benny said without letting go of Fina.
"Didn't you have feelings for me, Fin?" ask Benny to see how the girl in front of him feels.
Again and again Fina threw her face the other way after hearing this question. She seemed unwilling to answer a question that she herself did not know the answer to, "me and Kang Aris were already committed to getting married after kang Aris got her S2 title," Fina replied without daring to look at Benny.
"You are only committed without an official bond. He hasn't seen your parents. After all, if he really wants to marry you, he will definitely meet your mother. At least he proposed to you. Now you think, what did that young man do? Just a word, right?" Benny tries to provoke Fina in order for Aris to disappear from his mind.
"If you want to, now I can meet Lady Bradiah to propose to you" Benny challenged.
The face of the hijab girl was met with red as it held back the cry in front of Benny. Several things have been said by Benny to convince Fina, if she is the best. Serious talks continued until Fin finally moved from his place.
"Please don't talk about this again. I'm not ready to be your wife. It took me a long time to think about all this. I can't promise anything to you, because I'm committed to another man." Fina explained how she felt at the moment, "excuse me, I want to go back to the room," said Fina before leaving Benny in the living room.
