The Only Heir
Forced
"It's been then." Dion's words are steady
A short while later, the two of them had been in the bamboo cafe. A very popular cafe for young people, or young couples, who want to celebrate birthdays or the like
The cafe is quite beautiful, because the atmosphere is very shady. It is supported by many small bamboo trees that are well maintained
Coupled with the many fish ponds in it, add to the atmosphere to be very comfortable, so many young couples and even families who always eat there. Of course for those whose level is in the lower middle class
After getting the right place.is on the edge of a clear fish pond, which is also equipped by a small fountain. Dion and Emily immediately sat down in the gorgeous little gazebo
A while passed, no one had yet tried to start a conversation. The awkward atmosphere was clearly felt between them
Not wanting to linger for long, Emily took the initiative first to start a conversation
"Let's order some food first." Emily said breaking the deadlock between them. After he saw from afar a cafe waiter who was walking towards them
Unexpectedly, Dion vents the vexation of his life to his friend Emily without being asked
"You order. I am a useless man. I never had money or money. My work at my wife's family home is not appreciated at all."
"Day, I work cooking, mopping, grocery shopping at the market and other jobs"
"Nearly I don't have time to make my own money." He said while wiping the circles like tears flowing thinly in his eyes
"You're crying Dion?" Emily was confused
"Ah no, just regular sweat." Answer Dion as he spoke
Their conversation stalled, when the waiter who would serve them arrived, and offered a list of food and drink menus in the cafe
After ordering the food, the atmosphere returned awkward, no one took the initiative to start the conversation. But it arrived..
"You don't worry. Today I will treat you. Don't be inferior because of it." Emily said breaking the silence
"I'm ready to hear whatever you're going to tell me today. Come onl!. Let go of all your uneg on me."
"Huh!".Dion exhaled heavily, then continued saying.
"For more than a year, I was a babu for them. I was forced to do that, because of their grandfather's message, which had helped me, when my life was about to drift, was poisoned by a group of young men from a wealthy family in town B."
"After I recovered, 3 months later I was married to her granddaughter. According to grandfather, I'm not as simple as I look."
"He insisted on marrying his granddaughter to me, after he saw this necklace I was wearing." Dion said while revealing the necklace that had been around his neck all this time
A moment Emily saw the necklace, without intending to touch it
He only saw from a distance of one meter the necklace. But what he saw was clearly not wrong. The necklace does contain a great mystery. But what is it?
"Keep why all this time, you didn't try to find work out there?" Emily's question was clearly not understanding Dion's condition
"I've tried to apply for a job where. But average is just being an OB or cleaning service in that big corporate company."
"Nobody of them believed in my ability, or indeed there was someone influential in City B, to pressure all of the company's companies, not to accept me to work for them. But that's just my assumption."
"I also applied to the giant company Birawa Group, but raw I was rejected there."
"The average manager is arrogant, and looks down on the underworld like me."
"So for 1 more year now, I've kept on working in the Jasmine family."
"But it won't last much longer. Their family, other than Wolf's grandfather, hated me so much, let alone my mother-in-law, my sister-in-law, as well as her cousin Jasmine."
"That said, every day, hour and hour, when they see me, the demand to part with Jasmine keeps them going. I feel immune to my ears to hear it."
"To be honest I can't stand their treatment of me either. But for the sake of fulfilling grandfather's will, I continued to endure their abuse and ill-treatment of me."
"But the more days of abuse and ill-treatment they had towards me, the more intense. Not only did they attack me with words, but they also attacked me physically."
"By the heart, he insulted me in front of the man. Slap, shove and spit at me there."
"As a man, I'm not naive. I realized that if this continued, my life would always be oppressed. Self-esteem is lost like an animal."
"Love has blinded me. Love has made me weak, too."
"I hope, by continuing to serve him, will grow the seeds of love in Jasmine's heart. But my mind was wrong."
"Utilizing that love. Jasmine and her family, have a chance to bully me. In one year of all the homework, they get it for free through me."
"But now, I've made up my mind, I will agree to their demands, to part with Jasmine."
"Especially after he rejected me, in the presence of others, and again I have carried out the mandate of Wolf's grandfather."
"So please help me Emily." Dion pleaded
"How can I help you, Dion?. I have no rights to you. Especially when dealing with Miss Jasmine."
"Enough prayer and encouragement to me, so that I may not get worse."
"Dion!. You're a tough guy for as long as I've known. You don't give up on the situation. That's all I've known about."
"Come on!. Don't keep drowning in the mess of your household. Be determined, if you really want to part with Miss Jasmine. Don't hesitate anymore."
"I'm sure you can." Emily was calm
"Thank you Emily. You're my best friend. If on any other occasion, there is a leniency of life to me. You're the first person I'm gonna go to." Dion is in the heart
Shortly after he finished saying that, the menu they ordered came. They also eat with it
After some time, Dion and Emily had finished eating. Then they left the place, after paying for the food
Emily decided to continue to go to several companies, who knew there was a need for new employees
Dion went straight to his wife's house
***
Arriving there. How surprised he was, when he arrived. The entire extended family of his wife, including the head of the family, Grandmother Wolf, was sitting with a tense face, like she was out of anger
It seems like they are talking about something very important
"That's his loser man." Shouted one of Jasmine's cousins, Vincent with a powerful voice
"How dare you go home after what you did to Mr. Brian." Sela Jasmine fierce
"Basic loser!. You're really a useless piece of trash. Because of you, the cooperation that was agreed with Birawa Group, is ruined." Shouted Jasmine's mother, Everly anyway
"Mr Brian, with his influence, has cancelled the cooperation contract with our Wolf & Co. company. It's all because of you!" Said Vincent no less tight with the word Everly
"And again, Mr. Brian intends to sue you into the law, for molesting him." Follow up another Jasmine cousin
"But grandma suspended her, provided you're willing to sign a divorce agreement with Jasmine's sister .Chalista chirps Jasmine's sister lightly
"You look like an animal. Are you deaf Dion? Why are you quiet?"
"All quiet!. Here the grandmother will decide, what should the useless daughter-in-law's granddaughter do!"
"From now on. You don't let me stay in my big family's house anymore. You've been evicted, and you're no longer needed here!"
"Now sign your divorce papers with my granddaughter Jasmine. If you still refuse, I'll take you to jail" Wolf's grandmother threatened
After Grandma Wolf finished saying the ultimatum. The atmosphere became silent, no one dared to make a sound
They were all waiting, what would Dion, that useless son-in-law say
