Kania wiped her tears, she then stood up while clenching her hands, “I will prove to her, I am not a weak woman. I will bring her to her knees before me.” After what Veon had done to her, she was determined to conquer that cold-hearted man. She wanted to see if the man would still treat her as he usually did.
After fixing the shirt she was wearing, Kania came out of her room, she went down the steps one by one. The woman took her foot into the kitchen, and it turned out that all the Veon family had gathered at the dinner table.
“Honey, sit down, let's have breakfast,” take Vera when you see her daughter-in-law walking towards the dining table.
Kania just nodded her head, she glanced at Veon who was just silent while enjoying her food, ‘she did not even invite me to breakfast, even after what she did to me!’ the woman pulled the chair next to Veon and sat down.
“You've been married for a month, don't you want to go on your honeymoon?” ask Dion.
Kania looked at Veon who was just silent, ‘why he was just silent, do I also have to answer him, then what should I say?’
Veon raised his face, “Veon will not go on honeymoon, because Veon's work is very piled up,” reject it in a cold tone.
“But going on a honeymoon is very important, so you can spend alone time alone without anyone bothering you,” said Dion.
“And Mama will soon get a grandson,” added Vera.
Kania who was chewing her food suddenly coughed due to choking on the food in her mouth, she then took a glass of water and gulped it down.
“Honey, you're okay right?” ask Vera worriedly.
Kania nodded her head, “Kania is fine, Ma,”.
“Mama should not expect to soon have grandchildren, because Veon does not want to have children. What Mama forgot, Veon married because of the will of Mama and Papa, not the will of Veon.” Veon then continued eating, saying all of that without even thinking about Kania's feelings.
“Darling, didn't you yourself want to marry Kania, but why are you saying that now?” ask Vera surprised.
“Veon, what did you mean earlier, do not say you married Kania also because of force, do not say until now you have not.” Dion stopped his words, suddenly his chest hurt so much.
Vera holds the shoulders and arms of her husband, “Papa, why?” tanyanya.
“Veon, Papa does not want to know, you and Kania must have children, if you do not want to have children, then who will be the successor to this family?” Dion squeezed his chest that was getting painful.
“Pa, take care of Papa's emotions. Remember with Papa's disease,” said Vera.
“Do you want to see Papa you die first, then you want to give a grandson to your Papa and Mama?” Dion raised his voice.
“Papa always threatened Veon with Papa's disease, what Veon absolutely could not determine Veon's own life!” Veon moved from his seat, “Veon does not care, anyway Veon is not ready to have children!” he then stepped his feet and left the dining table.
“Basic child does not know himself! What now your nature is like your birth mother!” yell Dion loudly.
Veon stopped his footsteps when he heard the biological mother come out of his papa's mouth. The man then turned his body around, “what now is Papa sorry for having a child like Veon? Isn't this Veon a kid that Papa didn't want his presence!” loud shouting.
Vera got up from her seat, she then stepped her feet closer to Veon, “sayang, what are you saying, Papa you love you very much, so how could Papa you not expect your presence, Papa,” he said trying to calm Veon down.
Kania was just silent, she had absolutely no idea what was happening at the moment. A biological mother, an unexpected child, what does all this mean? thought.
“Did Mama also consider Veon as Mama's stepson? Does Veon mean absolutely nothing to Mama?” whenever Dion was angry, he always said that Veon was very similar to his stubborn birth mother, and because of Dion's attitude that made Veon grow up to be a cold-hearted man.
Veon shook his head, he then hugged Vera very tightly, “don't ever hate Veon, Ma. Because Veon loves Mama so much,” he said.
Vera let go of her embrace, “Mama never hated you dear, because you are Mama's favorite child,” he said.
Chelsea who saw her brother and mother who looked so close was finally moving from her seat, she then stepped her feet closer to her brother and mother, “what is Chelsea not Mama's favorite child too?” goda.
Vera smiled, she then hugged her two children, “you are the favorite children of Mama and Papa,” he said and released his embrace.
“Did not think of me as a sister, just because we were born from a different womb?” chelsea asked with both eyes.
Veon rubbed the top of Chelsea's head, “until whenever you are brother's favorite sister,” he said while brushing a smile.
Kania was so moved to see Veon's closeness with her family, this was the first time she had seen Veon's weak side. So he has that kind of nature too, I guess he can only be cold, he thought.
“Honey, you don't get angry with your Papa yes, actually your Papa means good. Papa you just want the best for you. If you have children, then..”.
“Enough, Ma. Veon doesn't want to discuss that now, so Veon please, don't talk about it anymore.” Veon then moved his legs away.
“Ma, Mama knows how Kak Veon is, the more Mama forces him, Kak Veon will be more against him. Let Kak Veon alone first, if the anger is gone, then Mama talked about it again with Kak Veon,” persuaded Chelsea.
Vera let out a long sigh, she then nodded her head. Chelsea invited her mother back to the table.
“Honey, sorry, for the incident you just saw. You must be very surprised after seeing what happened earlier,” said Vera.
“It's okay, Ma. Kania is very surprised, but Kania knows that every family must have personal problems. In the past Mama and Papa also often scolded Kania if Kania made a mistake,” said Kania while brushing her smile.
Dion who had finished his meal also moved from his seat, “Ma, Papa wants to go to the room first,” he said and stepped his feet away. Vera followed her husband from behind. She knew her husband was in pain.
“Kak, there is something I want to ask?”
“What?”
“What does Brother and Sister Veon really love each other, like what Brother Veon said before you got married?”
Kania rounded her eyes, she didn't know what to answer, “ke—would you ask like that?” ask her with a nervous tone.
“Because I saw Kak Veon's attitude all this time did not show if Kak Veon loved big brother, as well as brother's attitude. You guys even act like strangers who just knew each other.”
“It's just your feelings, I'm the same brother you've known each other for a long time, and we also love each other, so you misunderstand,” said Kania with a smile.
Chelsea scrunched her forehead, “but brother can't lie to me, because I know what Kak Veon is like. He didn't even want to get married when Papa asked him to get married, but after he heard he was about to be betrothed, suddenly he changed his mind,”.
Whaaat! So Veon asked me to marry her just because she didn't want to be betrothed? I guess she asked me to marry her because she wanted to fulfill her Mama and Papa's request, but it turned out for this reason. Kania got up from her seat, “sorry, I have an appointment with someone, I go first,” she said then put her feet away.
“I'm more sure if sister's wedding is just a skit” murmured Chelsea in heart.
