Marrying the Paralyzed
Chapter 39

Indri is relaxing his body and mind in the pool. How happy he was to know that Melinda went to the hospital because of the hives caused by him.

“Oh this is your behavior,” said Almer when he saw Indri swimming.

Indri faintly heard Almer's voice and he raised his head.

“Kakek.” Indri was very surprised to see Almer looking at him with anger.

“Get out of that water right now!” Almer's orders.

“Grandfather, I just came down and Grandpa instead told me to stop my valuable activities,” Indri reply who refused to end his activation just like that.

“Quick get out of the pool and get out of this house!” almer orders that have lost patience for what Indri has done to his favorite grandson-in-law.

Indri was surprised and then also came out of the pool with a feeling of annoyance.

“Grandfather why suddenly kicked me out? Grandpa did you forget that I was the wife of Grandpa's granddaughter?” indri asked half-shouting.

“Take it easy, if that I never forget. But you can no longer live here. Because at this time you also have to lift your foot from here,” stressed Almer.

“Grandfather can't treat me as he pleased dong. Anyway, I'll stay here.”

“Alright, if you want it like this. I will contact the police for what you have done to my daughter-in-law's granddaughter,” Almer said, preparing to call the police to arrest Indri.

Hearing what was said by Almer, made Indri surprised and immediately Indri gathered in front of Almer.

“Grandfather, please don't do this to me. I can't possibly live in prison.” Indri begged Almer for mercy so as not to imprison him.

“Alright, then you should immediately leave from here. I have booked a plane ticket for you to leave Indonesia,” concluded Almer.

Indri raised his head with a very surprised expression.

“What is Grandpa mean? Grandpa wants me to stay abroad?”

“Yes. Grandpa will send you to Singapore to be a waitress at one of the restaurants there,” explained Almer.

“Grandpa wasn't kidding, was he?” tanya Indri.

“What am I kidding for? You will send me at one of my restaurants located in Singapore. 1 year is enough, right?”

Indri cries hysterically after learning that Almer sent her away from Indonesia to become a restaurant waitress.

“Save those tears, you better get ready because in 1 hour we must have left.”

Raka and Melinda arrive home. The first thing Melinda did was to ask one of the servants to find out what was really going on, as the atmosphere at the time looked very creepy.

Melinda is shocked to learn that Indri was cast out by the Grandfather.

“What's up? Why is your face immediately agitated so?” tanya Raka looked at Melinda's agitated face.

“Mas Raka, is Mas Raka telling the truth to Grandpa?” ask Melinda.

“Yes. Why?” asked Raka annoyed.

“Mas Raka, if Mbak Indri is sent off, Mbak Indri want to stay where? I have also forgiven what Mbak Indri has done to me,” Melinda concluded.

“For what do you care about that cunning woman? Now you go into the room and don't come out before I give the order!”

When Melinda wanted to reply to Raka's words, Indri emerged from the elevator with tears flowing.

Melinda turned her head towards the elevator that had just opened and at that moment also ran towards Indri.

“Mbak Indri where are you going? Why carry a suitcase?” asked Melinda who did not want if Indri got out of the house.

“Are you intentionally doing this to me? Because of you, I got kicked out of this house and sent by Grandpa to Singapore to be a restaurant waiter. Are you satisfied now?” Indri could not endure the pain in her heart. In a fit of annoyance, Indri shouted loudly right in front of Melinda.

“Mbak Indri why speak like this to me? I did not want this to happen at all, Indri said. I have considered Mbak Indri like my own sister,”, said Melinda who did not want to make Indri hate him more.

“Melinda, get in the room now!” raka's orders were visibly furious.

As Melinda wants to answer Raka's orders, Almer appears in a neat suit.

“Daughter-in-law, why go home? Should be the granddaughter-in-law stay at home until things really improve,” said Almer who was so considerate with Melinda.

Again the sight made Indri speechless. Indri cried and wanted to strangle Melinda's neck which made her get rid of from the house.

“The daughter-in-law's granddaughter can't stand up for the wrong person like this woman. What's more, protecting women who deliberately want to harm the granddaughter-in-law. Grandpa did the right thing and right now Grandpa has to go to the airport to make sure that this woman flies to leave Indonesia,”, said Sang Grandpa at length.

Indri ran out while pulling his suitcase. The sight, made himself seem not to be among them.

As Melinda wanted to chase after Indri, Almer swiftly held Melinda's hand.

“Do not be pursued, such a woman does not deserve to be forgiven. Son-in-law's granddaughter is calm, Grandpa sent her to Singapore so that she can better appreciate her good and right way of life.”

Almer breezed away to immediately deliver Indri to the airport.

Raka laughs satisfied knowing Indri will soon be sent to Singapore.

“Why are you still here? Let's go to the room!” Raka's orders.

Melinda shed her tears and pushed Raka's wheelchair towards the elevator.

The servants applauded vigorously while Mak-lampir had left the house.

Upon arriving in the room, Raka asks Melinda to help her get into bed.

Melinda agreed and helped her husband very carefully.

“Why are you crying? Don't tell me you're crying because of that cunning woman?” ask Raka.

Melinda kept quiet and did not answer questions from her husband.

Seeing Melinda who is silent does not respond to his question, makes Raka know that the sadness of his wife because of Indri's departure.

“Listen well, I most dislike there being stupid and weak women like you. How can you still forgive him who has clearly made your situation like that?”

“Mas Raka, my late mother never taught me to take revenge against people who hate me. If I reply to him, it means the same as me as them,” Melinda explained.

“Stupid,” chirped Raka and closed her eyes instantly.

Melinda sighed and took a slow step towards the sofa that had become a soft mattress for her.

🌷

Almer stood right in front of Indri and asked Indri to immediately enter the aircraft cabin.

“Grandfather, did Grandpa really send me to Singapore? Can't Grandpa forgive me? Melinda just forgave me, why didn't Grandpa?” ask Indri who hopes that Almer's decision to send him to Singapore is canceled.

“My previous words were very clear. Now sign!” Almer's orders.

Indri tightly gripped her suitcase and decided to take revenge when the time came.

Just watch out for you village lady. Again, you win and I lose. Just look later, once everything is done, I will come back and make you suffer many times over. (Inner Indri)

“Quick go!” almer orders Indri who even daydreams.

Indri also left with a grudge that he would hold until he returned to Indonesia.

“Rafa, forgive Grandpa. Your wife is very outrageous and in this way can Grandpa do so that in the future your wife can accept the presence of your sister-in-law,” said Almer monologue.

After the plane took off, Almer rushed to leave the airport.

Almer walked towards the car with teary eyes. The old man missed the figure of his late first grandson who was none other than the older brother of Raka Arafat.

“Big master, do we go straight home?” ask driver.

“Yes. We go straight home,” replied Almer briefly while arranging the space in his heart so as not to dissolve in sadness.

As Almer looked out the window, an idea suddenly appeared in his head.

Almer who previously looked sad, suddenly smiled eagerly and impatiently wanted to get home soon.

“Why think about it now?” ask Almer.

“Iya, big sir,” said the driver thought that Almer was talking to him.

“I'm not talking to you,” said Almer and returned with a big smile.

Perhaps in this way, the relationship of the two can be even more fruitful. (Inner Almer)
