The Love Flakes of Nauvara
Lessons of the past

"Give Fero a chance to atone for his mistake, Zi. Think about your child. Your child needs a complete parent. No matter how hard you refuse, but a child still needs a father figure to be his protector."

Zia was crying again. He knew what Vara meant, only his heart still refused to be a prankster in Fero's life. Vara brought back Zia into her arms, "I know what you are feeling right now. I was in your position too. It's just that, before your child is born, you can still mend this slightly complicated relationship. You can be selfish, but there are people you have to prioritize."

"What do I have to do, Ra? He just loves you. Our marriage has made her life a mess. I knew he would never replace your figure in his heart. I don't want to be a prankster in his life. Fero didn't love me, maybe with this kid, either" he sobbed.

"If Fero doesn't love your son, there's no way he's this hard to fight for you, Zi. Fero's been trying to start a new life with you guys. Please think back, don't make decisions that will make you regret later."

Zia tried to digest Vara's words in her arms. Releasing her embrace, Zia let out a breath for a moment to relieve the tightness in her chest, "If this path is the best, I will do it for the sake of my son. Just for my son. Even if I knew, there would be no place in his heart to carve my name there."

"You accepted Fero's offer to marry him?" ask Vara enthusiastically.

"For my son, Ra. Whatever I'll do for him."

"Deplace your clothes. I will discuss this matter with Mas Rangga for a moment. I'm waiting for you in the living room."

Zia nodded. Although in his heart still feels worried when making a big decision to accept a marriage offer from Fero.

The living room in the dominance of white color was silent. Zia still lowered her head reluctantly raising her face to look at the man before her. His eyes still looked wet with tears. Rangga who saw the silence spoke up, "So when will you come to Zia's house to discuss your wedding plans?"

"The right decision. The age of Zia has entered 6 months. Your marriage should be done as soon as possible."

"I will marry Zia in a week" said Fero.

Zia jerks. Instantly his face lifted up looking at the man who had arbitrarily made up his mind without asking for his opinion, "Why is it so fast? I'm afraid that Mama and Papa won't approve of it" she said in despair. How not, seeing the wrathful look from her Papa to Fero, it felt that Zia was not sure if her parents would allow this marriage.

"Gue doesn't care. I will continue to make our marriage work. The presence or absence of the blessing of Om and Aunt."

"Gue and Vara will help to give understanding to Om and Auntie. They must understand the path you choose" said Rangga.

"I'm sorry for the trouble" said Zia.

"No problem. I've been in Fero's position at the moment. I really understand what's on his mind. Fero's luckier one step than me. I can't even feel what it's like to take care of Aidan and Ayura since they're in the womb."

"Bag.."

Rangga clutched Vara's body with one hand, "No need to feel guilty. From the mistakes we've experienced before, it can now be a lesson to them," a brief peek at Vara's forehead lovingly.
