Son-in-law's Choice
*MP Episode 23

"A-- what, mbak? Are they employees? Tung--wait. Zery wants to find another employee? Am I with Mas Seno not enough as an employee in this mbak shop?"

"This store is not too big, Ma'am. I'm the same Seno is enough. Anyway, all this time, we've both been taking good care of this store."

Lena actually conveyed what was in her heart out loud. Without any bad taste, he blatantly protested against Zery who was clearly the owner of the store. Zery knows better than he does. He didn't think at all.

The annoyed Zery immediately turned his lips to show a smile to Lena. "What are you talking about, Len? They're the ones I accept because there's expertise."

"I mean, mbak what?"

"Well, they're two of the best graduate kids in this town's college. The only best graduate in agriculture. While the other is the best graduate in the stringing community of a capital city. They are two very wonderful people."

That compliment was enough to scratch Lena's heart. He felt that he was a lowly person who could not do anything when Zery so exalted the name and expertise of the two people that Zery had just met.

"That's .. mbak Zery .... "

"Ah, yes Len. One over. I almost forgot to say. They will both live in this shop. So, you're gonna share the place with those two kids yeah."

"Huh? Ap--what's mbak? Will they live here too? Ta-but .... "

"I just feel sorry for them, Len. Because they are just like you, there is no other place to live besides my shop. Because of that .. I was forced to accept them to stay here."

"But mbak .... "

"Ah, forgive me for making you feel uncomfortable. But, I really don't have a choice, Lena. I hope you understand the conditions we're going through well." Zery blurted while gently touching Lena's shoulder.

Unable to speak anymore, Lena could only be speechless with an extremely annoyed feeling. Unfortunately, he could not let go of that annoyance now.

'This brash base is Zery. He wants to accept people to stay here? What does she think the flower shop is this big? Small like this. Want to add people. Make me dislike him more now.' Lena said in her heart.

...

"Sir, can't they really put Zery anywhere else. This room is quite stuffy if it has to be inhabited by three people, mbak."

"No, not Lena. This room is quite spacious. Load for the three of us" said one of the two girls who came. Her name is Lili.

"Yes, mom. What Lili said was true. This room is very spacious for us. Because before, the school dormitory was also no bigger than this, madam. Where the residents are more crowded than the three of us anymore." One of his friends answered. No other name is Laras.

"Well, you heard what they said, didn't you? The room is quite spacious. Enough for all three of you. So, why would I put them somewhere else if you could still do it here, Lena?"

"Yes but .... "

"Udahlah. Don't talk about anything that doesn't matter anymore, Len. I'm tired already. I want to go home because it's late."

"Oh yes, Lili, Laras, if there are things that you want to ask, or tell me, can be conveyed via chat via WA only. But, if there's anything you need, just ask Lena to prepare. Because he's been here a long time. So, he knows very well what's in this place well."

"Yes, mom. Ready." The two spoke together excitedly.

While Lena, she just silently held back the feeling by tightly grasping her hand. Really, he wanted to be mad at Zery. But baby, he's been unaware of who he is at the moment. It was impossible to argue or fight against Zery who was clearly the owner of this florist blatantly. Because if it keeps doing it. So it is the same with him who is tired of working in the flower shop.

....

Zery arrived home after a while driving the car. When he looked around the house, he was quite surprised by a car parked next to his house.

A very familiar car for Zery. It was so exciting when the car came to his house. Who else owns the car if not the papa.

As fast as lightning he immediately contacted Zaki. He hoped, Zaki immediately answered his call. However, that hope did not materialize. Because right now, Zaki is with his girlfriend.

"Oh my God, Zak. Pick up the call. This is Zaki's bad condition." Zery muttered as he continued to try his luck by reconnecting Zaki's number.

However, the effort remains the same. Because Zaki is busy with his happy world with his girlfriend.
