Love For My Sad Boy
Chapter 60. Get Rest

Arkan's days are not calm because he has not married Silva. Although he has been given full responsibility for Silva by the girl's parents, but he is still not free to take Silva out of the apartment because of the fear of other apartment residents. He also could not give happiness to Silva like normal couples in general. Who every once in a while will visit his parents' house or the house of in-laws. Arkan wanted to give that and he also wanted to prove to Silva that he was serious about his words and his love for Silva.

Not to mention the people who want their relationship to run aground. Flowers for example. Now Arkan already knew that the Flower held a taste in him and had been making efforts to get his heart. But unfortunately, his heart was already lost stolen by Silva. Especially when Bunga knows that Arkan works at his sister's cafe. Almost every day the girl comes to the cafe to get close to Arkan. He is uncomfortable of course. Now he regretted helping Bunga back then. If he finds out that Bunga is Regan's sister, he won't help her until she gets carried away. His intention was purely to help.

Therefore, today after school, he will go to Silva's parents' house without his girl's knowledge. Today happened to be Saturday, so he had a day off at the cafe. Arkan accidentally does not tell Silva that he will come to his parents' house, so that Silva does not worry about him. He was convinced that Silva would hold him back or force him to come along. But he could not bring Silva to meet his father if he had not confirmed that his future father-in-law had forgiven them. He was afraid Silva would have another expulsion by Hanum.

Now, Arkan has gotten off the bus and is walking towards Silva's parents' house. With steady steps, Arkan unceasingly continued to pray inwardly. I hope he gets blessing from them.

***

Bugh!

One punch should Arkan receive in his left jaw. He said nothing but lowered his head while holding his painful jaw. Actually he had just stood before Hanum when he called Laras to enter Hanum's study. However, just entering, Arkan has got a bogeman from the host.

"Why did you just come now?! Kenama, huh! I thought you were just messing around with my son" angrily Hanum looked at Arkan with wide bulging eyes and a hardened, flushed face, staring at Arkan sharply.

Arkan still kept his head down, he replied, "Sorry--"

"Don't duck! I don't want to have such a rich ghost! Raise your head and look at my face while talking to me!" hanum shouted cutting off Arkan's words.

Arkan obeyed Hanum's orders. He lifted his face and looked at Hanum's red face. To be honest, he was a little horrified to see it. Instantly he swallowed the saliva because he felt his throat suddenly dry.

"I'm sorry, Om. It's not that I just want to play around with Silva. But before I get married I want to have a job so I can prove to you that I can support Silva" Arkan replied still a little nervous because of the loud thump in his chest.

"What work are you doing? Cafe waitress?" Hanum snorted, throwing his face away. "A job like that will support my child? For yourself, I don't think it will be enough. I won't give you my blessing if you still work there! Start learning to manage your father's company! Because someday you'll replace him managing the company. Same with my company. If not you who will continue, who else if I have time to retire later? Silva is an only child, so all my efforts will fall into the hands of his family later. You are her husband."

"No, Om. I won't admit Om's company is mine. I will only manage, but the ownership will still fall into Silva's hands as Om's biological son" Arkan replied in defiance of Hanum's decision.

Hanum nodded in agreement. "So, when are you ready to marry Silva?"

"Of course before you get married, you have to get out of the cafe where you work today and start learning to manage your father's company and cafe until Nesya can be trusted to manage the cafes" continued Hanum.

"Please give me a month to take care of everything."

"An month?! You want my son to marry with a stomach that already looks prominent?! Huh!! You want to humiliate my family in front of my relatives and your father's relatives, do you?!" burg Hanum heard Arkan's reply.

"But, in a month's time, I can make a simple celebration for our wedding. Especially in the near future."

"Who do you think you are?! Who's daughter-in-law is she?! You really underestimated us, Arkan!"

"It's not so, Om. I just want to marry with my own money."

"Do that when you're not negligent in caring for my son and don't get pretended to be a hero by claiming to be the father of the fetus in my son's belly!"

Arkan gasped at Hanum's words. He never said anything to his future father-in-law.

"What's? Are you surprised that I know everything? That's your lack, Arkan. All this time, why are you just quiet? Where do you promise that you will prove your innocence? Did you forget? Or resigned to whatever we will do when we believe you did all that? As long as you know, I would never let you get married if you really did all that!"

Arkan answered nothing. He just looked down and reflected on his mistake. During this time he was only focused on finding a fee to marry Silva but forgot about his responsibility to convince the Silva family. In fact, all the decisions were with Silva's parents. As for the cost, his parents would definitely not stay silent. They will definitely pay for their wedding. Well, now he realizes his too selfish mistake of wanting to solve all his problems on his own, without involving anyone else. In fact, he could have discussed with his parents. They forgive him, too.

"Yes, starting next week you're getting married. Tomorrow you bring Silva here. For a week waiting for your wedding day, you can't meet! You take care of all your interests, and Silva will prepare himself before marriage. Now you can go home!" break up Hanum without wanting to be denied.

Arkan looked at Hanum in disbelief. "But, Om. Why can't I meet? I can-"

"Can what? Can you stay here too during the wedding preparations? I will not allow you to stay in this house before you become part of this family! My decision is unanimous, it is not negotiable. Just do your job! Now, go home! Please make good use of the remaining time. Remember, tomorrow you have to take Silva home! Watch out for you taking my son further!" threatening Hanum who managed to make Arkan gulp his saliva instantly.

"B-well, Om--"

"Don't call me again! Call me dad!"

"Well, a-"

"Not now! But later after you're officially married. Now you go home!"

Gee whiz... If not his future father-in-law, Arkan would have liked to flick his broad forehead.

... Seriate......

be patient, Arkan. Emang's son-in-law is always wrong, the in-laws are always right. 🤣
