The Pledge of the Ingkar
IYI 21'S

“But, Aunt, I'm really not sure about everything Auntie said. Not that I don't believe in all the stories, Auntie, but I feel like none of this makes sense. Because, Auntie thinks I can help the son, Auntie. This all sounds so impossible to me, how do I help my son, Auntie?” Zoya is further confused as Wulan continues to place such great expectations on her. People who don't even understand how to deal with someone as depressed as Liam.

“Surely something to do, since you are not a psychiatrist, when you can get close to Liam, then you will be able to know what he feels. He will be more willing to open himself up to you. Not to mention that if you get married, there will be no burden of feelings in Liam's heart if you touch him. Because you already have each other. You know, Zoya that Liam's been trying to kill himself a few times. Just because he felt so lonely and depressed. He felt his world was so devastated because of his current condition. Therefore Aunt thought to give a friend, in order to accompany Liam to face his dark days. And the most appropriate person is you. With a life partner, Liam can certainly face everything. Because there are people who always support it.

All this time he always thought people approached him, there must be a certain purpose, while the nurses, only take care of it because they are paid. Liam must have thought there was no one so sincere to accompany him. That's why Auntie asked you to marry her. In order for William to have a friend to share the story.please think about all of this once again, Zoya. Aunty is really scared of losing Aunt.”'s son Wulan hoped that this time Zoya would completely shake her belief in rejecting Wulan. Because Zoya was currently just silent and seemed to be pondering over something.

Zoya, who had listened to the explanation regarding Liam from Wualn's condition, now began to feel pity. His confidence began to waver, he wanted to ignore it, but in his heart he also wanted to help him. Moreover, she did have a lot of debt to Wulan and her husband. Because after all, the Sandjaja family had many helpers when he was hit by disaster.

Of course something very reasonable, if Wulan also expects his support for the calamity that their families face. By taking good care of his son. It may seem that Wulan is like an insincere person, but Zoya also knows how sincere Wulan and her husband were when helping Zoya first. Maybe if all of this didn't happen, Wulan would never bring it up again.

If Zoya were in the position of Wulan, she would also definitely do the same, since she was a mother. A man who would do anything for his son. So it's only natural that Wulan would ask him to do all this. Zoya won't blame him at all. But the trust that was given to him was enormous. The fearful Zoya is unable to run it well.

But Ziya was also still so hesitant, whether to accept Wulan's offer or not. Because he also never knew or was close to a man during this time. Only Damar was currently close to him. But Zoya also has no feelings of love for him. So you can be sure, if Zoya is married to Liam, her heart is still empty without love.

Wulan who saw Zoya was thinking about her words, was very sure, if now Zoya must be a dilemma. That means he managed to influence Zoya to want to marry Liam. It's certainly something very good for him. Although he knew this way also could not be justified, but he had to do everything for the happiness of his son.

“Tante, is Aunt really sure to marry me to Liam? I mean, isn't this too soon for her to get married? While he still grunts his lover. Is marrying the two of us not a reckless act? Moreover, we were not people who knew each other or were close before. So I feel like, well, Auntie doesn't know for sure how Liam is feeling right now. Therefore, does Auntie not want to think about this solution first?” Zoya felt that this solution was too rushed. This may not actually be a good thing to do. If they misstep, wouldn't it just have an even worse effect on Liam's health.

"Tante has thought of everything, Zoya. How else should Aunt be begging you? Pl-please.... Aunt please, please help Auntie. Please marry William. Aunt please, Zoya. This is Aunt's first and last request to you, Auntie please...!" Wulan came down from the sofa, folded her knees on the floor, kneeling before Zoya who was shocked by it.

"Aunty...."
