Loving My Brother's Fiancee
54. Must relented

“If I am in trouble, I can guarantee that I will never trouble Papa and Mama, so don't worry. I won't trouble you guys. Didn't I promise you that I'll prove that I'm independent! Everything is proven, I never ask anything of you. Even when I became Ibra and worked at Papa's company, I didn't take my salary either. Yeah, just a few times I've eaten at your house. Let's just say it was my salary while working at the company.”

The father and son were both stubborn and remained clumsy on their stance. There is tension between the two. Mama Syakila and Salwa try to calm their husbands. A waiter came along carrying their order and stopped the debate.

“Already, we better eat first. Later we will talk again about it,” by Mama Syakila.

Abra is actually very lazy if you have to eat with them. He just wants to get out of there. However, Salwa tried to give peace to her husband. The woman kept holding her husband's palm. Abra complied and ate his order.

After finishing his meal, the man wanted to leave. However, Mama Syakila said something before they left. Salwa could see the sadness in her in-laws' eyes. As a fellow woman, of course she could not bear to see that, but Abra just kept pulling her hand to leave immediately.

“Abraham, our house is always open for you and your wife. If you have time, come home. Mama will miss you.”

Abra just nodded her head and passed from there, without saying a single word. Mama Syakila was disappointed, her son was very difficult to reach. The man had built a wall that was too high, to be unattainable. There was only Serina at home. However, the girl was always busy with her activities and rarely talked to her.

“Mas, did we not go too far with them? Their good intentions want to connect the cord with us,” Syakila said to the husband.

“It's okay. Maybe someday our relationship as a family will improve, but for now let it be like this.”

After finishing enjoying the food, Papa Handi and Mama Syakila will go home. Before that, they want to pay. However, the waiter said all the food had been paid for by the person who was with them. You can guess who paid for it.

Meanwhile, in an oncoming car, Abra and Salwa are on their way home. Both of them were still silent, thinking about what happened today.

“Mas, did we not go too far with Papa and Mama?” salwa asked her husband.

“No, that's normal. Some of them also often do such things, so they will not feel hurt.”

“But, Mas, as a child, we should have succumbed to parents. We should not repay their actions. Everyone must have been a khilaf. I just don't want one day my son to do the same to us, as we did to them.”

Abra was silent to the wife's words. He also did not want his son to do something like him. The man imagined being with his children. Abra doesn't want all of her wishes to be destroyed just like that. That is true what Salwa said. He must make peace with the past.
