Nicholas's Decision

Nicholas walked into his house with a disheveled face like an unironed garment. That certainly caught Rehan's attention. While Naura was acting ordinary, because the middle-aged woman, could already predict that it would happen.

"Nicho, what's wrong with you? didn't you just have dinner with Renata? but, why isn't your face excited like that?" rehan asked with sharp-linked eyebrows.

"It's okay, Pa. I'm just tired. I'll go to the room first!" without waiting for an answer, Nicholas immediately passed away, going upstairs to his room.

Naura let out her breath. Honestly, the woman was very confused right now. If he tells Nicholas not to be too hopeful and cancel the match, he is afraid that it is considered favoritism and relates it to the fact that Nathan is a biological child while Nicholas is a connected child.

"Darling, go upstairs and ask Nicholas nicely. He will definitely be more open to you" Rehan said.

"Emm, it seems like for this time, I suggest that you talk to her," Naura softly and gently refused.

"Why is that? hasn't she been more open to you than I have been?" Rehan scrunched his forehead.

Naura looked increasingly confused and felt a dilemma.

"Emm, I know, Pa. But, this time I felt that if I asked, he would definitely not want to open up," Naura said ambiguously.

Rehan looked increasingly confused and looked at Naura with eyes that were squinting suspiciously. However, it did not last long, the next second the man sighed and stood up from his seat.

"All right! I'm the one who's going to go ask her," Rehan stepped away, after Naura nodded her head.

...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...

Rehan knocks on Nicholas' room door slowly. Unresponsive from the inside, Rehan tries to open the door that turns out to be unlocked from the inside.

Rehan scrunched his forehead, seeing Nicholas lying down by covering his face with a pillow. The middle-aged man, then swung his foot over to Nicholas.

"Nicho, can you tell papa what happened to you?" rehan asked while sitting on the edge of the bed.

Nicholas put away the pillow that covered his face and immediately sat down.

"Pa, I'm in a dilemma right now, whether to continue this matchmaking or cancel it" Nicholas said softly.

Rehan's forehead was getting wrinkled, confused.

"Why indeed? this is not all your request. Because you asked me to come to Rajendra. Why are you even worried now?"

"Renata asked me to refuse this match, Pa. He didn't want to be betrothed to me, "Nicholas' face looked even more sad.

"Why?"

"Because she doesn't have any feelings for me, and loves other men,"

Rehan flinched, silent a thousand languages for a split second.

"Emm, but one's feelings can change, Nicho. It could be that Renata's feelings for the man are not very deep and quickly change if you pay more attention to him," Rehan tried to encourage his growing older son.

"I used to think that way, Pa. But, the problem is I'm not sure because that man is our closest person . I'm afraid that if I stay determined, it'll make your mother's heart sad and sick,"

Rehan's forehead grew wrinkled, trying to digest Nicholas' speech. "What does this have to do with your mom? why is your mother sad and hurt?" rehan murmured.

Then, the middle-aged man realized something and looked at Nicholas.

"Don't tell me that the man you're talking about is Nathan. Is papa's guess right?" rehan asked in a tone demanding an explanation.

Rehan exhaled heavily while rubbing his face violently. He finally understood why his wife had refused his request when asked to ask Nicholas. Now the man is really in a dilemma. If he annulles the match, he pityes Nicholas who is his biological son. As a father, however, he wants the happiness of his son, but, if he can continue, there are two hearts that will hurt his wife Naura and son Nathan.

"So, how did you decide?" ask Rehan at last.

"Let me think about it, Pa! Because if we cancel it, Rajendra's om gonna feel like we're playing him. We're asking but we're cancelling, too,"

Rehan nodded his head, because what his son said was very precise.

...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...

Nicholas looks out of a room that is none other than Rajendra's work room his papa Renata.

"Why did you, Brother come here?" Renata intercepts Nicholas before the man gets to his car.

Rehan smiled wryly, "What do you think I'm doing?" Nicholas rolled his eyes at the girl he loved.

"Don't tell me that you want to continue with our matchmaking," Renata guessed with caution.

"Exactly! you are smart too!" nicholas said as he ruffled Renata's hair. Yes, after careful thought, finally Nicholas decided to continue the match with a consideration that only he who knows.

Renata brushed aside Nicholas' hand violently and looked at the man with a warlike gaze.

"Crazy brother! no feeling! whatever you want, but obviously don't expect me to love, Brother!" cetus Renata with glittering eyes, fury.

"Don't be too sure! all of those people can definitely change, including your feelings!" nicholas said, smiling.

"But not with my feelings! so don't expect too much! I'd rather not be married a lifetime than be married to a sister,"

"And I made sure it wouldn't happen. Because if you refuse, your papa company bets you. You know for yourself that if our company withdraws all investment from your papa company, it will be destroyed" whispered Nicholas with a sly grin.

"You're sneaky! you have no feelings at all. You're the most selfish person I've ever known!" Renata cursed, eliminating the call of brother.

"As far as you want to say what. Obviously, next week we're getting engaged. Prepare yourself!" nicholas ends up going to his car. The man threw his smile back before getting into the car.

Meanwhile, Renata stared hatefully at Nicholas' car. Then, the girl ran into the house to meet the father.

"Father!" call him in a high voice.

"Why are you screaming! papa is not yet deaf," said Rajendra with a flat face.

"Why break the promise? didn't Papa tell Nathan that Papa would wait for him to prove his words? but why is it that now you want to match me to Nicholas?" Renata delivered his protest quickly, as fast as a train.

"It's all for your own good. Papa is not sure if the man named Nathan can keep his promise," Rajendra still looks relaxed while crossing his legs.

"Papa, isn't papa always known for the man who always holds his word? but why has papa changed now? papa is selfish? I know, papa accepted their proposal for papa's smooth business. Isn't that it, papa made me a business exchange tool?"

"Shut up! trees you can't argue anymore. Now you go into your room!" tell Rajendra, with a rolling voice and a very sharp gaze.
