The Substitute Sister-in-law
Attempt to refuse

Nanney walked up to her husband and sat next to him.

"Uncle, Auntie, how are you?" greet Nanney kindly to her husband's family.

"Good Uncle and Aunt news, how are you?"

"Well, Aunt." Nanney answered and chose to be quiet.

"Uncle, what exactly do you want to talk about?" ask Gane at the core.

"Uncle there's a request for you, go back to the main house, son. Your uncle, Uncle Hardika has agreed that the house is yours. Either way, you're still part of the Huttama family." Mr. Pras persuaded his nephew, hoping to return home.

"Uncle, I apologized earlier. It's not that I don't want to go back to the main house, it's just that I don't want to add to the big trouble ahead." Gane answered as best as he could in front of his uncle.

"No, Son. Trust me, Uncle, there is no big deal with you. The company also needs you badly, even many employees who resigned from the Company." Mr. Pras pleaded.

"I really can't, I'm more comfortable being like this. There's something I can eat then I'll enjoy it, if there's nothing to eat, then I'll work hard again." Replied Gane who remained adamant on his stance.

"Son, if you can't go back to the main house, at least you want to go back to the Company. You will soon have children, and you will need a future." Said Mr. Pras who continued to persuade his nephew to return to the Company and return to the main house.

Gane who continues to get persuasion from the Uncle, for a moment he turned to his wife at noon. His view is so serious, it is clear if he asks the opinion of the wife.

"How dear, did you allow this husband of yours to return to the Company? I'm waiting for your opinion." Gane asked the wife with a call of love. Suddenly, Nanney was amused by the strange name, he thought.

Nanney kept thinking, what answer should he give the husband.

'Why also ask me, where to call my dear, again. Dih, this really is a person.' Inner Nanney while thinking of giving a fitting answer to her husband.

"I'm not forcing you to refuse or accept, the decision remains with you. Because I believe, every child has his own success from his parents as well as from the child himself. So, you don't have to worry about hunger." Nanney answered as best he could.

"Sorry Uncle, Auntie, it wasn't my intention to provoke my husband. But I only confirmed his heart, nothing more." Nanney said a little horrified that Mr. Pras and Mommy Sere would hate her, Nanney thought with her anxiety.

"It's okay, your words aren't wrong. Uncle also did not force Gane to stay back to the Company or to the main house, Uncle only invited and persuaded. If your husband refuses, that's his right." Said Mr. Pras who finally gave up as well, Gane smiled with relief.

"Sorry, Uncle and Aunt. I believe, that David can definitely lead the Company. Because of his tenacity, he must have succeeded." Gane said as best he could, hoping that his Uncle would accept the decision from him.

"Yes, hopefully David can be like you, be a hard worker and be successful." Said Mr. Pras.

"Uncle must believe in Uncle's own children, because the true prayers and directions of good parents will produce good ones as well."

"Yes, what you said is very true. Yes already then, Uncle must leave home. Today Uncle has a flight to France, so can not long visit your home."

"It's okay Uncle, already want to come to the house I'm happy. Be careful on the way, Uncle. Good luck to your destination, Uncle and Aunt."

"Yes, thank you very much. Uncle pray for you too, may you succeed again." Said Mr. Pras, Gane nodded slowly. Mr. Pras and Mommy Sere immediately rose from his sitting position, and followed by Gane and his wife.

After saying goodbye, Mr. Pras and his wife immediately went home.

"Hem, why?"

"Why did Brother Gane refuse Uncle's invitation to return to the main house? and one more, back to work at the company."

Gane stopped his legs and stared fixedly at his wife's face.

"I've got my own job, you understand?"

"I understand, but I don't know what Big Brother's job is yet."

"Obviously my job can make money. Oh, never ask too much. My stomach is hungry, prepare breakfast for me."

Without responding to her husband, Nanney headed straight for the kitchen.

"Well .. the soup is cold." He murmured and reheated the soup. Gane was sitting in a chair waiting for his wife.

There was no sound between the two, just as silent. Even while serving her husband, Nanney still did not say a word.

Gane, who had been watching his wife, was astonished by her attitude.

"You why? why do you look so lethargic? you're all right, aren't you?" asked Gane who finally opened his voice. Nanney immediately looked up and looked at her husband.

"No, there's nothing. I just wasn't excited, I don't know." Nanney replied lethargicly.

"Is there something you're thinking about?" ask Gane curiously.

"I just want to go home, that's all. I don't know why, I'd love to go home. I feel like Grandma misses me so much. Ever since I left the hometown, I've rarely met Grandma." Nanney was not excited.

"When did you leave your hometown?" ask Gane to know.

"Since I was 12." Nanney replied and took a deep breath.

"Why is there only Grandma, where are your parents?" gane asked who kept asking.

"Both my parents? I no longer have both parents. Since I was 12, I've been with my Uncle and my Tant. When I finished my education, my Uncle and Tant left me for a long time. I kept signing up for work, and then I got to know Regar." The answer is long, of course, she again remembered the sweet memories with her former husband.

Nanney who felt tightness in his chest, he held back from crying. For a moment he looked down, afraid that his tears would fall down his cheeks.

Gane, who understood what his wife was feeling, moved to approach his wife and sat next to her. Then, Gane embraced and rubbed the wife's arms.

"Cry if you want to cry, maybe by crying, your burden is slightly reduced." Said Gane trying to win his wife's tired mind.

"I'll try to drive you home to your hometown, but I'm not promising any time soon." Say again.

'Gane realize, the woman in front of you is the cause of your little brother's passing.' Inner Gane who was troubled with the beginning of his goal to marry his own sister-in-law.
