We went back to Jakarta on a plane so it didn't take long. Arriving in Jakarta, Pak Saka met his father to ask permission to marry. I deliberately did not show up first to avoid things that are not desirable because currently the big family is looking for my existence which is considered to be the cause of the cancellation of the marriage of Ciya and mas Bagus.
Fortunately, I'm not too affected by the current warming conditions, he who did not care much about his children fulfilled Mr. Saka's desire to marry us as long as Mr. Saka wanted to give money to father.
Actually the attitude of the father who hands off is very sad, especially he had four daughters, but also so easy for us to get married. Especially after the exhausting incident after being lied to Andre Winata.
"I've arranged our wedding preparations. After meeting MUA, we met my parents" said Mr. Saka. I nodded my head. "Are you going to be happy to marry me?" ask Mr. Saka
"According to father?" I asked back.
"Hmmm, I don't know. But obviously I will fight to make you happy" he said.
We both walked side by side even with distance while smiling.
That soul mate is really weird. I really thought I'd fall in love once and get married. But apparently God gave the wrong man first. Now, I hope Mr. Saka is really my soul mate.
"We have arrived" said Mr. Saka, when his car entered the courtyard of a large house in the South Jakarta area. A very luxurious house with a towering building plus a super spacious yard. Not just entering I can already imagine how rich their family is. But why did Mr. Saka start his business from scratch, if it turns out his family is this rich. In the past, his brother-in-law also told me about his father, Mr. Saka who is very rich, he is the owner of the Ambassador Group which is one of the giant companies with many branches everywhere.
"Why shut up? Comeondown?" take Mr. Saka who is already standing in front of the car door where I went down.
"What you are sure I will be accepted by ... I mean," I can't explain. Honestly, I cheated, I didn't think it was this rich. To be honest, I was very worried about not being accepted because I was nobody.
"Papa accepts you or not, will not change my decision to marry you, Ra. I've been keeping my distance from this family for a long time, my goal is to introduce you not to seek your blessing because I don't need it. I just wanted to let them know that we're getting married. That's all" said Mr. Saka. He made sure that everything would be fine, but still I was still groggy, my body until it was cold hot.
We both entered Mr. Saka's old man's house which to me was like a palace. Luxury house with gold shades. There are already father and stepmother Saka, brother and sister-in-law.
"I want to ask for your blessing" said Mr. Saka. "We're getting married next week."
"Belgium ... Papa never bothered that you want to marry anyone, but please, this is a happy moment in our family because finally the youngest son of this family got married too. So, can this wedding be made a party." pinta pak Prasetyo.
"can't. The show is only a few days away, if everything is at home as you like then the show will be chaotic. It is up to you to come or not, which is clear the concept of our marriage is mature and can not be changed" added Mr. Saka again
Hearing that, I was a bit annoyed at Mr. Saka. His parents have tried to ask in a good way, why should it also be rejected?
We didn't have long, just introduced ourselves and left. Before leaving the house, his brother-in-law, Mr. Saka, asked me to talk for a while while when Mr. Saka was detained by his brother.
"Ra, only you can soften Saka's heart. Please persuade him to follow your wishes at all times because papa is very old, pity if denied continue." said mbak Andin. He briefly told how complicated the relationship between father and son, all because Mr. Saka did not like his father's marriage with Aunt Heni which resulted in his escape from this big house.
"Okay ma'am," I'm in favor, though I don't really know if I can persuade or not.
"Have parents as good as that, why keep your distance anyway?" I asked, as we were on our way home.
"Bak Andin said what?" saka asked back.
"Not much, just asking that I persuade you to make peace with your parents" I replied
"Oh," he answered only short, then spurred the vehicle quickly to make me scream out of fear
"Sak Saka what the hell? What if we do what?" I asked, when the car stopped.
"You may ask anything from me, but please don't interfere with my business and papa "he asked.
Mr. Saka returned to advance the car, but not as fast as before.
Arriving in front of the apartment, I did not go straight in. Choose to sit for a moment in the car to calm the heart that was not good after reprimanding Mr. Saka.
"Is your father angry?" much
"For?" he asked back.
"Because my father reminded me "
Mr. Saka laughed. "You don't know Tira, I'm so because I'm still hurting. My father left my mother for the sake of a second, pitied woman, given a place to live and work, but would betray my mother. The betrayal was so deep in my memory that I decided to leave the family because Papa never really listened. Than I stress better get out" said Mr. Saka. "In addition, people say, men who have betrayed usually he will ignore his children. You feel that too, right? Why fight for impossibility. The second woman will always be won!"
I can't speak, can imagine a time when Dad was two and he ignored us. It feels like the world is over but it has to be lived.
Mr. Saka is right, people who have been duplicitous will never care about their children. Love has blinded his eyes and heart. We who are both from a broken home family can feel how bad when our father was taken.
But in my heart I am grateful for not being a second woman. If I didn't know Andre Winata's mask, I would've repeated my father's mistakes to Lina's children.
"I understand" I said.
"Because, if we're married, no one can betray us. Especially if we already have children because I do not want our children to feel what we feel" said Mr. Saka
"Yes." I replied.
The sun has returned to its content. I was escorted to the apartment, after which he returned to the shophouse.
