Marrying the Paralyzed
Chapter 67

Afternoon.

Melinda's happy face has since been scattered so clearly that Almer wondered what made her granddaughter-in-law look happy.

“Daughter-in-law, Grandpa attention from earlier granddaughter-in-law smiling happily. May Grandpa know what makes Granddaughter-in-law look this happy?” ask Almer curiously.

Melinda smiled shyly as the old Grandpa asked her why she looked happy.

“Kakek, later tonight Melinda and Mas Raka will go watch a movie in the cinema. Grandpa wants to come?” ask Melinda maybe her husband's grandfather wants to watch a movie in the cinema.

Almer laughed after hearing a question from his son-in-law's granddaughter.

“Grandfather is very old and it seems inappropriate to watch a movie in the cinema. After all, Grandfather did not want to disturb the time of Grandson son-in-law and also Raka,” Almer bright and returned to laughing.

“Grandfather could have,” reply Melinda blushed shyly.

Raka came to his wife and Grandpa who was watching television in the family room.

“Wah, it looks like something Raka has missed,” said Raka who came along with one of the bodyguards to push her wheelchair.

The bodyguard was also excused to stand guard in front of the house after bringing his Young Master to the living room.

“Raka, will you and your daughter-in-law's grandson go to see a movie in the movies?” asked Almer to make sure he returned, because he did not want his grandson to cancel what had been promised to his son-in-law's granddaughter.

“Iya, Grandpa. Raka and Melinda are going to the movies. Does Grandpa want to come with us?” ask Raka.

“You are yes, just like your wife. Earlier, the granddaughter-in-law had invited Grandpa to come along. However, Grandpa did not deserve to watch a movie in the cinema. Better Grandpa at home,” concluded Almer to his grandson.

“What do you want to bring?” ask Raka maybe her grandfather wanted something to take home.

“Grandpa doesn't want anything, Grandpa just wants to be healthy and quickly see your baby, your baby,” replied Almer who again discussed the problem of prospective grandchildren and also grandchildren of his son-in-law who would not know when he would be born.

Raka and Melinda exchanged glances with each other after hearing what the old Grandpa had said.

“Grandfather, about that we don't know when. After all, we are still too early to think about the baby. We still want to enjoy our honeymoon period, right not my wife?” ask Raka to Melinda.

“Yang Mas Raka says there's a point, Grandpa. We still want to enjoy our newlywed days,” Melinda concluded.

“If it's your choice Grandpa appreciates it. Grandpa hopes Grandpa will always be healthy until Grandpa's great-grandson to this world,” Almer replied as he moved from his seat. “Grandfather wants to rest for a while in the room, you guys have a chat here,” added Almer and walked leaving the two of them in the family room.

Melinda glanced at her husband who was focusing on watching television. It was in Melinda's mind to immediately give the old Grandpa a great-granddaughter. However, Melinda and her husband never had a husband-and-wife relationship. In fact, they do not sleep in one blanket let alone in one bed.

“Why? Are you thinking about what Grandpa wants? I hope you don't think about it at all,” stressed Raka.

“No. I did not think about it at all, it was possible that Mas Raka thought about it,” said Melinda as she flicked her long hair back.

“What did you say just now? You think I'm interested in something like that? After all, you are not my type,” firmly Raka and make Melinda's heart at that time also feel pain.

Melinda thinks that her husband's ideal type of woman is her husband's ex-lover. If nothing happened, Raka and Melinda would never have married.

Melinda is jealous of the woman who turns out to be the type of woman her husband dreams.

“Sorry, because I am ugly,” Melinda said with teary eyes and ran as fast as she could away from her husband.

Raka could see Melinda's eyes glazed over.

“Looks like I made her cry,” said Raka felt guilty.

Raka called the bodyguard to immediately bring him into the room. Raka doesn't want Melinda to cry and will have her romanced by her biological grandfather.

Raka went into the room and it turned out to be true, Melinda was crying on the sofa while hugging the bolster tightly.

“Hey, why are you crying? I don't mean to say you're ugly,” Raka said very softly and hoped Melinda would stop crying soon.

Melinda tried not to cry. However, her tears grew louder when she remembered her husband's words saying that he was not the type of woman her husband dreamed of.

Melinda realizes that she loves Raka Arafat who is clearly not interested in her.

“Sorry, forgive me.” Raka tries to persuade Melinda not to cry by apologizing.

For some reason, Raka could not see Melinda crying. If Melinda cries, Raka feels sad and Raka doesn't want Melinda to cry about it.

“Come on, you're not ugly at all. Now, look at me,” Raka said as she touched Melinda's head.

Melinda slowly stopped her cries and distanced the roll that had previously covered her entire face.

“Is it true I'm not ugly?” ask Melinda to make sure.

“Of course, you're not ugly. Now stop crying, I don't want Grandpa to see you crying and scolding her again,” pinta Raka with a look of contempt.

A look Melinda had never seen before.

Seeing a gaze that Melinda had never seen before, Melinda also believed that in her husband's heart there were feelings for her. Even though the feeling is only 1.

After all, in the future does not rule out the possibility that 1% will be 100%.

“Do not cry anymore, now you are getting ready for Maghrib prayer. Look, less than half an hour Maghrib time will arrive and I don't want you to cry,” said Raka who did not want Melinda to cry again like a few minutes ago.

Melinda gave a small nod and waltzed into the bathroom to clean her face from the remains of tears.

🌷

The time for Raka and Melinda to watch a movie in the cinema has finally arrived. Both look very romantic when wearing a couple clothes at the request of Almer Arafat.

“Grandfather, is this not too much?” asked Raka who was amused by the clothes she was wearing.

Black t-shirt with a picture of love in the middle makes Raka amused to wear it.

“Mas Raka, I think this is perfect for both of us,” said Melinda who is very excited because she will watch a movie together with her husband.

“True what Young Miss said, this outfit is very suitable to be worn by Young Master and also Young Miss,” Reza said as she raised both thumbs of her fingers.

“You listen, Raka? Your wife and your assistant just said the same thing as Grandpa said,” concluded Almer smiled satisfied with the clothes he accidentally ordered a few hours ago.

Raka never dressed like that. According to him, couples who dress all twins are a couple who are not sane. And now, he's just as crazy as any couple out there.

“Young Master, it's time for us to leave,” said Reza reminded his Young Master to leave immediately.

“Alright, let's go now!” Raka's orders.

Melinda kissed the back of Grandpa's hand from her husband before getting into the car. While Reza was busy helping his Young Master get into the car.

Almer waved his hand to Melinda who was about to leave.

Melinda smiled happily as the car slowly drove away from the area of the house.

“Thank you, Mas Raka,” said Melinda who had grasped her husband's hand.

“Be quiet, I don't want to talk,” reply Raka who is not wanting to talk let alone respond to the words of his wife.

Because the atmosphere in the car became very quiet, Melinda chose to sleep.

Melinda fell asleep and unconsciously she leaned on her husband's shoulder with her hand still tightly grasping her husband's fingers.

Raka turned to Melinda who was sleeping. Seeing his sleeping wife, Raka chooses to let Melinda sleep leaning on his shoulder. Occasionally, Raka protects his wife's head that is about to shift from her shoulder.

Reza took a quick glance and clapped his hands excitedly in his mind. Reza praised the opportunity God gave both of them to get closer.

🌷

Melinda awoke from her sleep when she heard her husband's voice saying they had reached their destination. Melinda opened her eyes wide and it turned out they had reached the parking area of one of the shopping centers which of course there was a cinema that they would watch together.

Melinda went down as well as her husband who was helped by her husband's personal assistant, Reza.

It didn't take long, they had arrived and Melinda was the one who chose which movie they would watch.

Melinda eagerly chose a romantic movie in the hope that her husband could understand her feelings.

“Why should you choose a romantic movie?” ask Raka who does not agree with the film chosen by his wife.

“Mas Raka, didn't Mas Raka already agree to my request?”

“Alright, this time I relented,” replied Raka who did not want to argue with Melinda because there were many pairs of eyes that were watching her.

Melinda turned to popcorn and asked her husband to buy her popcorn. Raka again agreed and gave orders to his personal assistant to immediately buy whatever his wife wanted.

Hearing this, Melinda eagerly ran to choose the food she would enjoy during the romantic movie.

Raka scratched the nape of his neck which suddenly itched with the behavior of his wife.

Raka realized that Melinda was immediately the center of attention.

“The woman, where the place must have invited attention,” said Raka bobbing head.

For about 10 minutes Melinda chose this and that, they rushed into the cinema.

Melinda sat next to her husband and Reza sat next to her Young Master. That means, Raka is between his wife and also his personal assistant.

“Are you exhausted from having to use this heavy body?” raka asked his personal assistant who was sitting on his right side.

“Not at all, Young Master,” replied Reza who had absolutely no problem with the weight of his Young Master.

Melinda looks very enthusiastic with the big screen in front of her. Once in a while, Melinda turned to her husband who was focused on the big screen in front of them.

“Mas Raka, let's try this popcorn. It tastes very sweet and there is also a salty,” said Melinda while thrusting popcorn with a sweet taste.

Raka looked wryly at Melinda and picked up some of the popcorn. Then, Raka put it in her mouth.

“How, Mas Raka likes?” ask Melinda curious.

Raka did not immediately answer, because his mouth was still busy chewing.

Melinda kept looking at her husband to see if he liked her or not.

“Don't look at me like that, the popcorn you chose tastes good,” concluded Raka for Melinda to stop staring at him.
