MARRIAGE AGREEMENTS
ALVARO-GISELLE

The woman's words suddenly stopped. He could not continue his words until they were finished. Fear that his fears will come true. Meanwhile, the husband began to close his eyes tightly. Tina exhaled an annoyed breath. But she felt sorry to see her husband's face look exhausted.

Slowly he whispered to the man, “Mas. Do not sit in this position. Let's just lay back...”.

Next, Ruben helped sleep in a tilted position by hugging the bolster. He covered her body with a thick blanket. There was a soft snoring sound of the man indicating that he was asleep.

Tina took a deep breath. She then said to herself, “My hirasat said that something is wrong with this marriage. Aileen Benjamin was a good girl. But it's obvious she doesn't put feelings on my son. Unlike Sam who seems to start putting his heart on his future wife. I'm afraid that.if.Aileen turns out to love other men. She's a smart and attractive girl. Time to have a girlfriend? Pity my son if it turns out his wife later turns out to love other men..”.

After pondering for a while, the woman finally decided to ask her the things she wanted to know about Aileen to her mother directly.

“In two days I will meet with Jeng Ernie at the designer party dress place. I'll ask you a few things about her daughter. My heart is not calm if you do not know who exactly is my son-in-law starting from head to toe!”

Two days later at noon Ernie was picked up at her house by Samuel. Aileen did not take her mother outside the house. He reasoned to immediately complete the translation of the online novel which he had to send to the publisher via email two hours later.

“Alright, Leen. Then Mama immediately waited for Nak Sam outside, yes,” said Ernie relented. “So we can leave immediately to the designer place of the party dress.”

The princess smiled. His head slowly. “Bikin cool model yes, Ma,” always tease. “So that can rival the excitement of the dress that Aunty Tina wears. Hahaha..”.

The mother shook her head at the temptation of her daughter. She herself honestly did not know what kind of dress she would make. Just follow the advice of the designer later, he thought simple. That man is very experienced in his field. I can give you the best advice for me.

Moments later Ernie was on the front porch of his house waiting for the arrival of his future son-in-law. Samuel promised to pick her up at one in the afternoon. And just as two days ago when picking up Ernie and Aileen to go together to the bridal showroom, the young man again arrived on time.

With a smile on her face, Ernie lightly stepped towards the gate of her house. The opening of the iron door that was painted white was a little to give a gap for him to come out. Then closed the inner door hinge and padlocked it.

When the middle-aged woman turned her slender body towards the black Mercedes Benz car Samuel was driving, she saw the young man's face from behind the wide-open car window.

“Please enter, Auntie,” said the friendly young man as he opened the car door from the inside.

Ernie nodded. He felt comfortable with the hospitality of this young man who he considered not excessive. Opening the car door from the inside for the woman is a reasonable ethic done today. There is no need for a gentleman to get out of the car and stand to open the door for him like a descendant of nobility who must be respected.

“Oh, I just left the office, Auntie. Get the job done there first, have lunch, then pick up Auntie now. The house looks lonely, Auntie. Aileen is going?” the young man asked, wanting to know. It was seen that he was very concerned about the girl who would soon become his life companion.

Her future mother-in-law smiled warmly. She said, “Aileen is in her room. He is currently focusing on completing an online translation of the novel. He said two more hours should be sent to the publisher via email.”

“Oh, so, Aunt,” comment Samuel responded. “It looks crowded too huh, orderan translation service Aileen?”

“Yes, there you go, Son Sam,” Ernie replied proudly. “Maybe it was a talent God gave him to earn a living. Aunty and Om anyway, agree-agree. Provided Aileen enjoys it and can live independently from her income it.”

His son-in-law would agree. A feeling of pride rose in the young man's heart. He is happy that his future wife is a woman who is able to be independent and not depend on her husband.

Suddenly Samuel flinched. He wondered why he was so attentive to his future wife. Their marriage was on paper. In reality he freed Aileen Benjamin to do whatever she wanted. Including dating other men in the house that they will occupy after marriage later!

“Nak Sam's. Son Sam...., how to daydream? We're leaving, aren't we?” ernie asked, disperse the daydream of her son-in-law.

“Oh..iya..anu. Well, why did I suddenly think of something,” said Samuel nervously. A cold sweat flowed out from his temple.

“Is Nak Sam less healthy?” ask Ernie concerned. “You need to rest for a while at Aunt's house? Or...let Nak Sam just sleep in the guest room, then Aunty take an online taxi to go to the designer's place? Pity your mother Nak Sam if you wait a long time there..”.

The young man grinned. Mama will not wait for the arrival of Aunt Ernie, her mind is amused. She must be busy choosing a dress model that suits her. That was one of his hobbies. Determine what dresses and accessories she will wear to look perfect in front of the crowd.

“I'm fine, Aunt Ernie,” Samuel said politely. “Let's go now to that designer's place.”

Her future mother-in-law nodded. He noticed the young man sitting next to him running the car away from home. For two days of going out with this young man, I really felt he was a good and reliable person, yes, the woman commented inwardly. Deserve Mas Harris agreed to Mas Ruben's request to match our children. But….

Aileen's mother's heart was agitated. She knew her daughter was forced to undergo this matchmaking for the sake of her devotion to parents. Deep down inside Ernie, Aileen's lack of sincerity is marrying without love.

Based on his experience of being a wife for twenty years, the feeling of love for the husband is very necessary in living the household life. It is useful to motivate himself to always maintain the harmony of husband-wife relationships.

Undeniably, the life of each couple's household nothing goes smoothly. There must be things beyond belief that risk destabilizing the marriage bond. Feelings of love towards the couple a little-many can help the wife to struggle to maintain her household no matter what.
