The Girl of Rhein
The Pain of Part 2

Rhine was sitting opposite the woman he was about to be betrothed to. The woman's face looks very happy, visible from earlier the smile on her face is not lost.

"Rhein, I'm very prepared if you propose to me. Isn't Orlaf your sister also getting married to Hazel?"

"Not married, he's just going to propose to Hazel. They'll get married if I get married first."

"Then, when are you going to propose to me and we can get married soon."

One of Rhine's eyebrows was raised upwards. "Why are you so eager to marry me? Are you pregnant with someone else and want me to be the father of your baby?"

"Rhein up! Why do you even have such bad thoughts with me?"

"Because you're in too much of a hurry to want me to marry you."

Dinda's face was irritated. "I was in a hurry because I was afraid you'd change your mind and leave me instead."

The man in front of him even smiled strangely, as if he did not believe that the woman he would be betrothed to was very different from what his mommy said.

"Do you love me?"

"I love you, Rhine," he answered quickly.

"Who are you lying to? We just met for a few days and you said you loved me? What makes you love me? My looks? My fortune? Or curious about my race? If it's a last resort, I'll give it to you, but don't lead anything if I leave you because you asked for it."

Forgive me for mommy Kei and Daddy Adrian.

"I'm serious, Rhine. Ever since I saw you, I've been in love with you and I want to be yours."

"If I say I'm not ready, how?"

"What do you mean you're not ready? Our two parents betrothed us, and I am ready to accept it, accepting all your shortcomings, Rhine. I don't even care if you're a man who likes to play women, I want to marry you because I've fallen in love with you Rhine" Dinda emphasized her words.

"If I say I love another woman, how?"

"Who? Is she your lover abroad?"

"Yes, and I love her so much."

"Just forget him, Rhine. Maybe now he already has a lover because of the loneliness there."

Rhine is silent for a moment and he justifies Dinda's words because Hazel already has a lover because Rhine is wrong and Hazel says she will choose Orlaf and hopes Rhine understands what Hazel's decision is.

"Well, Dinda, we're going to go through this relationship to what extent we're going to go. I'll learn to love you too."

"Are you serious, Rhine?"

"I'm serious."

Maybe this is the right decision that Rhine took, although it will be very difficult.

"Hazel, I'll follow what you want" murmured Rhine softly.

It was a very happy night for Dinda. His love was welcomed by Rhine.

Rhine drove Dinda home. "Rhein, thank you for dinner." Dinda suddenly lands her kiss on Rhine's cheek.

The man once again smiled strangely at Dinda's attitude. Not long a beautiful woman who is none other than her mother Dinda out of the house. He smiled warmly at Rhine.

"Rhein, don't you want to go in the house first?"

"Thank you, Auntie. I'll excuse you for coming home because it's night."

"Yes already then. Oh yea! How's your sister doing? Aunty has not been able to go there because of the busyness that Aunty can hardly miss."

"Maybe tomorrow Aunt will see him with Dinda."

"Yes, then excuse me to go home first, Auntie."

"Yes, Rhine, you be careful on the road."

She saw Rhein get into her car and passed from there.

"Darling, how did your relationship with Rhine develop?" Look at the middle-aged woman seriously.

"Mama take it easy because Rhine will soon be mine. He's gonna marry me and I'm gonna be one of the Danner family's daughters-in-law."

"Mama also wants you to be part of a rich family because you don't want to live in poverty where your papa company will soon be bankrupt." The woman stared intently at the man sitting in the living room with a lot of paper on the table.

The man was her husband who was confused because the tender lost and the company's money was also stolen by one of his employees.

"Mama take it easy, I don't want to be poor either. I'll try to get Rhine to marry me soon."

"Dinda, mama has high hopes for you, so do not disappoint your mother. Also disconnect your relationship with your lover is because the man will not be able to give you what mom and you want."

Dinda was silent for a moment. "But I still love her, Ma. He is abroad anyway. Adit won't ruin our plan." Dinda hugged her mother.

"Love? The most important thing is now money, Dinda. Mama was very surprised when Kei contacted mama and wanted to match her second child with you. Mama thinks this is a solution so that our family doesn't fall poor."

"Yes, I'm just calm, Rhine is going to marry me." Dinda looked happy smiling.

Rhein arrived at his house, he wanted to change clothes first and later he would go to the hospital to look after Orlaf.

When Rhine went upstairs, he ran into Hazel who wanted to go down and get some water.

"Hazels? You didn't keep Orlaf in the hospital?"

"Tante Kei told me to go home and rest at home because your mommy and Daddy are taking care of you tonight."

"Did Orlaf not ask you to look after her?"

"He also told me to go home because that's it if I have an exam tomorrow, and I have to study."

"Oh so."

"Rhein, I want to get some water to drink first." Hazel went downstairs, and soon she went back upstairs and saw Rhine standing against the wall that was the separation between Hazel and Rhine's rooms.

"Why are you here Rhine? Why don't you go in your room?"

"I still want to be outside. What if I'm outside? This is my home and I have every right to do what I want."

"Totally so." Hazel goes into her room and Rhine follows Hazel in.

"Rhein, what are you doing?"

Rhine did not hear him lock the door to Hazel's room. He then walked closer to Hazel.

"I want to give this to you."

Hazel sees a ring that she had seen in Rhine's apartment. The ring that Rhine had wanted to pin on Hazel's finger when Rhine said he wanted to propose to Hazel.

"Rhein, this ring belongs to you, what did you give me for?"

"This is your ring, Hazel because I bought it for you."
