INSULATION (Troublemaker)
Chapter 149

"Wait a minute. I was afraid of hearing wrong. So can you repeat again the purpose and purpose of you coming here, Pak Jaya?" daddy Aiden's Pinta.

Papa Jaya was not angry at all when Daddy Aiden asked him to repeat his words earlier. He will gladly grant Daddy Aiden's request.

"So this is Mr. Aiden and Mrs Della. Our purpose and purpose here is to convey our good intentions. I as the guardian of Orla as well as to represent my daughter, want to convey if I want to propose one of the sons of father Aiden and mistress Della named Erland for my daughter. Making Erland my daughter's husband," repeated Papa Jaya who made Daddy Aiden now sigh. It turns out he was not hearing wrong. Then he turned his head towards his wife, telling her to explain. He was too dizzy just hearing the intentions and goals of the Jaya family.

Mommy Della could only nod her head to her husband before her eyes swept toward the three people before her who seemed to be tense waiting for a reply from the two of them.

"Without diminishing my respect for Mr. Jaya's family, I, as Erland's parents, the man you are applying for, apologize if we reject your goodwill for our son's proposal."

The words from Mommy Della were like bombs that hit the three people who had been very confident that their proposal would be accepted by them. But look, their good intentions were rejected by both of them. Of course the reply that did not comply with their wishes made Papa Jaya also Mama Rina inflamed. As for Orla, she was already glazed.

And with the tightness in her chest as well as the tears that would soon be dripping, Orla raised her voice.

"Why did Aunt reject our proposal?" ask Orla.

"Yes right. Why are you rejecting our good intentions? Though Orla is quite beautiful when paired with Erland. He is also very smart, has been able to control the company at the age of him who is still fairly young and is very suitable if paired with Erland. Our property is also quite a lot although not as much as your property but at least not to humiliate you if you have to mess with us," said Mama Rina who could not hold back the grunts in her heart to not ask, why they rejected their proposal.

"It's not because of the face, intelligence or property that we reject this proposal Mrs Rina," said Daddy Aiden whose intention was to be silent earlier but ended up having to help his wife to reply to the words of the three people in front of them.

"If it's not a problem, what is it? Please tell me the reason clearly!" Angry Papa Jaya.

"We can't tell you the reason why we rejected your proposal which is obviously not a physical problem or anything else, let alone a treasure. Because we have never looked at all that or set the criteria for prospective daughters-in-law should be this or should be it. We free our sons and daughters to choose their own future partners. So---"

The explanation of Mommy Della who was not finished, had to stop when Mama Rina cut her words.

"Well if you're freeing your children to choose their own partners why don't you ask Erland first. They even just refuse. What the hell are you guys. So if indeed you do not set the criteria for your future daughter-in-law, call Erland right now to come here. We want to hear Erland's answer directly about the proposal we made for him. You can reject our proposal, but Erland does not necessarily refuse," said Mama Rina still affirms the hope that Erland will accept her daughter.

"It's just that we called him to come here because I'm sure Erland's answer would be the same as our answer to reject your proposal because he already has a wife he can't possibly be polygamous for," dad Aiden's timpal who made Mommy Della immediately turned her head towards the husband.

"Darling you're nothing at all. Why did you expose Erland's secret in front of them?" the protest of Mommy Della who was only given a hand by Daddy Aiden. Code so that Mommy Della does not have to worry about the steps she has taken.

"Don't because you didn't take a proposal from us until you lied. I don't believe at all that Erland is married. It must be just your wits. So quick! Call Erland now so she'll be here soon!" papa Jaya said she wanted to hear firsthand Erland's opinion of their proposal.

Daddy Aiden let out a long sigh, faced with people who are ignorant like them must have abundant patience because if not for sure they will fight jotos right now.

Mommy Della nodded her head and quickly grabbed her lucky phone she had brought earlier. He then searched for Erland's phone number.

One call was not answered by Erland. But for the second time, the phone lifted. Mommy Della immediately loudspeaker her phone so that everyone there heard the conversation between herself and Erland.

📞 : "Hello, assalamualaikum Mom. What's up?" said Erland who actually made Orla tighten her hand to the hand of the Mama.

"Waalaikumsalam. Where are you now?" mommy Della asked ignoring Erland's question.

📞 : "Erland again on the way home."

"Just come home?"

📞 : "Yes. Why the hell Mom is not usually Mommy phone Erland asked Erland where, again what and so on."

"Just cooking can't be Er."

📞 : "Yes can dong. But if Mommy calls Erland just to ask like that, Erland just turn off the phone because Erland has to focus on the road" said Erland.

"Ehhhhh don't close it, baby. Mommy actually called you to ask you to come here."

📞 : "To the big family house?" ask Erland.

"Yes. Just for a moment, dear because there are things that you need to straighten out," said Mommy Della who makes Erland now frown.

📞 : "What the hell is Mom?" asked Erland curiously.

"You just come here let you know for yourself what Mommy meant. Mommy wait, baby. Careful streets. Bye assalamualaikum," said Mommy Della and without waiting for a reply from Erland, he disconnected the phone unilaterally.

And by putting her phone on the table again, Mommy Della said, "Erland I've called as you wish. You don't have to worry if he won't come here because I make sure Erland never disobeys orders from me or his Daddy. So let's just wait for him to come, maybe in about 10 to 20 minutes. And let him explain everything to the three of you in detail, so that you understand and do not accuse us of just being an alibi or lying to you."

The words from Mommy Della did not get any response from the three people in front of her. All three seemed to drift into their respective minds but the face full of emotion was still clearly visible on the faces of Papa Jaya and Mama Rina.
