Because Reyhan came home earlier than usual, Livia automatically went home too.
"Eh that's Livia .."so called a voice that Livia was very familiar with and never wanted Livia to meet that person.
Livia was stunned, Her stepmother suddenly smiled kindly to welcome her arrival.Si Stepmother grabbed Livia's shoulder and then led her to sit, where there was a group of people were visiting.
"It looks like you guys are a match, usually he always overtime.And come home late at night, but tonight ? suddenly he came home hehehe"The woman his father's wife was sitting flanking Livia with her father next to her.
Livia was astonished by the words her stepmother spoke.He watched the people who were looking at her with a smile that was hard to interpret.
"Mara ...There's a family who wants to ask you"Livia's father touched the tip of her child's thigh.Livia was aghast , she really did not believe it.
"Ta-ta-but Well"
Livia's sentence could not be continued because her stepmother gripped Livia's shoulder that was embraced since earlier.Livia noticed the hand with a lentic nail that was hurting her shoulder.
"Livia ..you're an adult, it's family time.Especially they are family, so you don't have to bother anymore to work from morning until night just to find additional to buy a motorbike. If so far their bike must be able to buy it for you.Yes right besan?"
"Yes." answered a woman who might be the same age as her stepmother.
"You're shocked, son, don't feel familiar with us.And suddenly came to propose to you "Commonize the woman who is likely the mother of the young man next to her.
Livia nodded slowly .
"I was a friend of the late Mother.Before we were married, we tied the promise that if our son was same-sex, then he would be a sibling.But if he was of the same sex, then we would marry him"
"After a few years, I got married first and was taken to Surabaya.But we never lost contact, we still keep our friendship.Until finally your mother married your father.But because I was pregnant big, but because I was pregnant,so can't attend"
"It turns out that I gave birth to a baby boy, and soon your mother gave birth to a baby girl.We only gave news by phone.And continued our appointment"
"But it turns out that God willed another, Your mother did not live long.In front of your mother's belly button, I promised to continue our promise.And now we come to fulfill that promise"
Livia swallowed the saliva, she was completely choked.His father just smiled in response to the gaze of his eyes that asked for an explanation, why should he ???
"Are you willing, son... to marry our son Khusairi??"continued the mother of Khusairi's woman.Livia revolved looking at the man who had been watching her.Khusairi reviewed the smile.
"W-what's in-he wants??"Livia was shaking.
"Well!!!i'd like..."Khusairi replied firmly.
"You heard it yourself, didn't you, baby ??"Stepmom Livia with a very wide smile.Livia increasingly stuck, Let alone see her father was very happy.
"Bo-can we.bi-way both"Livia ventured to make a request.
"Ooohhhh please, Khusairi..."
Khusairi nodded in response to his mother's remarks, here Khusairi's father just kept quiet and followed.Because who made this marriage agreement was his wife.
"Don't let me down" whispered Livia's stepmother as Livia was about to rise to get out.Livia just gave a small nod.
.

.
Livia invites Khusairi to sit on the terrace next to his house.There is a comfortable place to enjoy the night sky.
"Please..."Khusairi nodded politely, he sat down almost simultaneously with the girl.
At this time Livia was much calmer than inside because she was very afraid of her stepmother.
"When did you find out about the deal?"Livia started the question.
"Since I've completed my High School graduation exam "
"Did you accept it right away ??"
Khusairi smiled and shook his head.
"I asked for time to get to know you"
"But we never knew, did we?"
"You don't know me yet, but I know you "
Livia knitted her eyebrows together.
"Who said ??"
"So your mother said that she was brought to Surabaya "
"That's my mother, after I graduated High School I went to college in Lake just to get to know you .You went to nursing, didn't you??"
Livia nodded.
"We're a college, but you're very close to a man named Reyhan, and now he's a Doctor at the Hospital where you work"
Livia was stunned, it turns out that Khusairi already knew a lot about him.
"I also know, from your gestures you really like Reyhan .But???Reyhan play boy "
"So you're spying on me?"
"I just want to know who my future wife is "
"Then what is your reason for continuing this matchmaking?? "
"I have no reason to refuse "
"But we should be able to resist, if we have no feelings between us "
Khusairi shook his head slowly.
"And you know if I like other men, right??"
"All I know is she doesn't like you"
Livia's face heated up, her eyes reddened.
"Are there any more questions??"
Livia threw her face away, she shook her head slowly.
"I'll excuse you then "
Khusairi got up and left the girl who still looked emotional.He was sure that what he was doing was right.
Although he knew, the girl had no feelings for him.He would let everything run like flowing water.

Livia walked into his house.All his guests had gone home a few minutes ago.He deliberately remained silent beside his house because he was reluctant to pretend to smile on his heart.
When he had just entered, he saw his stepmother was busy opening the package that might be innate from the Khusairi family.His face was so bright.
"Eh Livia .. here here here..."
Livia reluctantly stepped closer.
"Look at this, they brought a set of jewels for the proposal, and next week you're getting married "
"What??? married ???"Livia rolled looking at her father who smiled thinly at her.She also looked sparkling happy.
"Dad what the fuck is this ?Livia's not ready yet"
"When are you waiting to be ready?"Her stepmother replied.
"But it doesn't have to be next week.it's too soon "
"It's good next week, they just want the day after tomorrow"
"What???this is not fair...Livia has every right to refuse Mom"
PLAQUE!!!
A slap landed making Livia's cheek sore.
"You have absolutely no right to choose, your duty as a child is only obedient.Especially this matchmaking made by your mother.If you want to protest, sana!!dig his grave"
Livia choked, swallowed her face down.
"This is your chance to serve your late Mother Liv"Livia's father just commented.Livia was silent, she could not say anything.Although she still put her heart's desire first, the result will remain the same.Marriage will be held next Sunday.
