Mathelina
[Season 2] CHAPTER THIRTY-TWO

Elina smiled glanced at Logan who was so stunned to see Anna. Then, he brought his face closer to Logan's ear while whispering, "Samperin him!"

"Aah!" Logan jerks. "No, ma. There's a father."

His mother kept pushing by nudging Logan's arm, until unexpectedly Logan almost fell forward.

Ah, fine! Logan sighed, glancing at Elina between resignation and annoyance. With a reluctant step, Logan approached Anna and gave a helping hand while trying to smile in front of her and her father-in-law.

Anna glanced at her father. The man smiled as if he was grateful to have given his son to the right person. Dad removed his arm from Anna's grip, then slowly retreated, letting Logan carry Anna on his way to the undercover.

The couple's steps were watered by the rose petals of some of the invited guests standing to their right and left.

Anna held back a smile, cringe, as this idea of her mother-in-law was a bit exaggerated. It was like being in a Bollywood movie. But, he did not realize that maybe all this will be his sweet memories, later.

"They're compatible, yes, dear," Elina commented, whispering to Matthew.

Matthew smiled, then chimed in. "So remember when we got married first."

Anna and Logan arrived at the door, then sat down on the chair provided. Their parents, who were sitting on the chair beside them, began to stand up. The invited guests one by one approached the guarantee to congratulate the couple.

I don't know how long they had to smile, greet the guests, they've been sore about it. And, hunger strikes Anna. He cursed, especially when Kenan came to pelaminan.

Logan did not calm down to see Kenan approaching them with a smile. The man reached out his hand while congratulating him.

"Thank you" Logan replied coldly. "But, didn't I not invite you?"

"Anging aunt Elina" said Kenan, smiling mockingly. "It's not good if you don't come?"

Ah, this guy! Curse Anna inwardly while glancing at Logan. Then, he turned his gaze to Kenan while smiling.

"Thank you for coming, yes" he said.

"Either. May your marriage be happy." Suddenly, Kenan's cold gaze was directed at Logan. "Because if you don't, I'll replace Logan to make you happy."

Although his expression was flat, Logan's heart was burning to hear it. How dare he say that, let alone smile after saying it, then he got out of his sight.

Anna looked at the two men worriedly, the fur of her romance crashing. Not yet over their cold war? Why is it so easy that their friendship falls apart? He felt that he was the one who ignited the fire in their chest.

Elina and Matthew get off the leash to blend in with their colleagues. However, because Matthew had to join with business people, Elina so had to be left in a group of colleagues consisting of business wives, including Eiliya.

"Hey, how are you? Congratulations, yes, on Logan's marriage" Eiliya said.

Elina smiled. "good. You're just the same as Malvin? Where's Nathan?"

"He's still in America. But, he sends his regards. Em ... By the way, Logan is very smart to find a future wife. Very pretty," Eiliya's tease.

A compliment that made Elina quite proud, but there was a woman in their group chimed in:

"Jeng, who wears the veil is your besan?"

Elina glanced at her mother Anna who was chatting with another invited guest. "Yes. Is there a problem?"

"Yes. You allowed your son to marry a woman of different faiths?" the woman commented again, somewhat half exclaiming.

Eiliya felt awkward at this state of affairs, glancing at Elina who still maintained a smile. "Jeng, don't talk like that."

"Is there a problem?" knock the woman.

"No problem," Elina interrupted, understanding Eiliya's intentions. "I know that marriages like this are forbidden. But love cannot choose. God willed their destiny. If they have to unite in differences, what can we do?"

All the women sewed their mouths, unable to argue.

Gracefully, Elina nodded politely with a smile. "I'll excuse you, yeah. Please enjoy the meal."

☘

Anna held her stomach. Sitting in this place was really boring, and made him hungry. Logan noticed that, looking at Anna's sweat dripping on her forehead, and her seemingly uncomfortable demeanor.

Tasya who also realized it, climbed the pelaminan and approached her brother. "Lo why, brother? Dizziness? Nausea?"

"ah! No." Anna straightened up, revealing a forced smile. "Gue is okay."

"Related?" tanya Tasya was skeptical.

Anna nodded, smiling widely to make Tasya more convinced. "Yes, I'm sure."

Tasya gave up, and finally came down. Anna's smile faded, revealing a regretful expression. Uh! Why is it so hard to say that "he's hungry"? Anna sighed.

"What do you want?"

A question that brought a fresh breeze to his ears, but also made his eyes round. Anna looked at Logan in surprise. Why is he suddenly like that? What is this attitude called? Of attention? Anna hesitates to conclude so.

"Ec ... Actually, am I hungry anyway?" answer Anna.

Logan took a breath. "What do you want to eat?"

"Wear rice rendang, vegetable stir-fry, kayak gulai sauce delicious?"

"All right." Logan moved from the chair. "I'll get it."

He's gonna take it? Seriously?

"Why did you take it?" anna asked, stopping Logan's movements. "You can ask to get me the waiter."

Logan slightly bowed, brought his face closer until spontaneously made Anna inching. "Let's be more dramatic" he whispered later, smiling cynically.

Dramatic? Anna's mouth muttered without a sound. Yes, this wedding is like a movie; starting from Logan pick her up and walk together to the guarantee with rained rose petals. Then, cut the cake together, feed each other the cake. If she remembered the scene, Anna became nauseous.

"If I wanted this marriage, I would definitely be very happy to be treated that way" he murmured as softly as possible.

Without a sound, the plate filled with food was in front of him. Anna was stunned, then glanced at Logan.

"Is that gini?" ask Logan.

"Yes. Thank you." Thank you." Awkwardly, Anna takes the plate from Logan's hand. "Don't you eat?"

Father again? Logan narrowed his irritated eyes, then rebuked loudly, "Call my name!"

"Yes," said Anna, tired of being rebuked continuously by him. "You don't eat? Sitting like this keeps making you hungry."

"You're pregnant, so you're hungry all the time" Logan said flatly, occasionally glancing.

"Yes, too," Anna murmured, then put food into her mouth.

Once Anna ate, she quickly finished off half her plate of food. However, there are new guests who come and want to take pictures together. They were the entourage of Tasya's friends who were invited by him.

Anna put down her plate, then stood with them. The photographer got ready to take a picture, but dropped the camera again.

"Sorry, Ma'am. It was her mouth ...," he said, pointing at her lips.

"Why?" Anna was stunned, confused.

Logan also initially does not understand, but in the end understands and turns to Anna. On the woman's lips, there was a grain of rice and it was a bit greasy.

Without thinking, Logan rubbed Anna's lips with his thumb. It's just that something made Logan stop and continue to look at the rancid lips he had kissed on that cruise ship night.

His heart was pounding again, moreover the scene continued to incite his passion to do something that was against his common sense.

Slowly, he moved his face. Anna was stunned, then stunned when she realized their distance was getting closer.

This guy, it's impossible to kiss her in front of a crowd, right?[]
