Wedding Bond
The Marriage Bond 72

Bara could not hold himself back anymore when he saw the change in his wife's attitude. He was worried that his wife Sian would leave him and would prefer a lover in his past.

Slowly Bara tightened himself to sit beside Sian. He looked deeply into his wife's eyes and then he said.

“Sian, honestly mas really hate yourself mas at this time. I don't like to say this to you, but I have to say it so you know what Dad Damian did three years ago to protect you.”

The flashback

In a hurry Damian brought his wife Vivian to the Hardynata family residence. Damian and Vian meet his close friend's family, intending to ask Paridipa and Liora to marry off their children.

“Paridipa Liora, I mean coming here and Vian, want to ask you for help. We want to match Sian with your son Bara. Do you agree with this matchmaking?” damian asked Paridipa and Liora.

Liora and Paridipa look at each other while listening to the question of Damian's desire to match their daughter Sian Carolus to their son Bara Hardynata.

“I as the family head of Hardynata agreed to this matchmaking, but_”

“No need to ask again, I will definitely agree with this matchmaking. Moreover, who will marry Bara is a beautiful and smart Sian.” Liora said cutting off her husband's words.

Damian and Vian smiled at Liora's reply.

No need for any effort, in a matter of seconds Paridipa agreed to the match, especially Liora who really liked the daughter of her best friend.

“We from the Carolus family are very grateful for this matchmaking agreement.” Damian said with a smile.

“Wait a minute, my wife and I did agree to this matchmaking. But not with Bara. My wife and I cannot force Bara to marry your daughter. All decisions are with my son Bara.” Timpal Paridate.

This arranged marriage would not happen if the Son of the Hardynata family, Bara Hardynata, did not approve it because Bara himself was a state servant who was very important in the state military.

“Alright, if indeed the decision is on Bara, may I speak with him four eyes?” damian said seriously.

“Of course, we will call Baranya.” Answer Paridipa.

Without buying time, Paridipa asked the servant to call Bara. And now Bara was sitting among them, or rather Bara was sitting right in front of Damian.

“Bara, uncle and those present here want to talk important things with you now.” Damian looks very serious. Dian stared at Bara very intensely.

“Alright, uncle wants to talk what important thing?” bara asked who was also very serious, and she also looked at everyone who was there seriously.

“To be honest uncle wants to ask you for help,” Damian said hesitantly, he was afraid that Bara would turn him down.

“Asking for help? What does real uncle mean?” ask Bara who is a little confused.

“Uncle wants you to help uncle to protect uncle's daughter Sian.” Said Damian who was still hesitant to say it.

“Protect from what uncle?” ask Bara who is still confused.

“Uncle wants you to protect her from people who will harm her, uncle does not want to see the mere puppet princess of the Carolus family stuck with a very dangerous man.” Said Damian who showed his cunning.

“What should I do to protect my uncle's daughter from the man?” ask Bara who understands a little Damian's words.

“What does uncle mean?”

“I mean uncle is uncle wants a marriage bond between you and my daughter Sian. That way you can petrify uncle to protect Sian from the man. If you tie your uncle's daughter to marriage, then that man can't mess with Sian because you guys are married, moreover, you are a special force capable of protecting Sian from anyone including a big mafia.” Say Damian plainly.

Bara was silent when he heard Damian's words. Not a few seconds later Bara again asked Damian.

“Uncle, does uncle's daughter love the man?”

Hearing the question from Bara immediately made Damian speechless. Damian was speechless, because his daughter Sian loved the man so much, and she wanted to separate him instead.

Bara who saw Damian's expression, immediately he already knew the answer even though Damian did not answer it.

“Sorry uncle, I can't tie uncle's daughter to a wedding.” Said Bara who suddenly rejected him.

Damian immediately poked in shock, upon hearing Bara's words just now. Likewise with Vian Liora and Paridipa, they were all very surprised by the words Bara had just uttered.

“Bara dear, why did you reject this marriage?” ask the shocked Liora.

“Sorry ma, Bara can't accept this wedding.” Answer Bara refused.

“Bara, can you explain why you refused this marriage to uncle?” damian asked for an explanation for Bara's refusal.

“Because I have to go on a mission for three more days, and I don't know whether or not to be on that mission. Although I during, I do not know when will come back again.” Clear Bara.

“Bara, papa think it is not the right reason to reject this marriage, you can get married first and after that you just went on a mission.” Timpal Paridate.

“Pa, Bara refused this marriage not only for that reason alone, but there are other reasons.” Sahut Bara firmly.

“Another reason, say what other reason it is?” ask Damian curiously.

“The real reason I rejected this marriage is, because it was obvious that uncle's daughter loved the man. Why should uncle separate them?” said Bara who managed to make Damian can not speak anymore.

After listening to Bara's explanation, everything there could only fall silent. A few seconds later, Damian reopened his voice.

“Bara, you don't understand what uncle is feeling right now. Uncle just wanted to protect his uncle's daughter from that dangerous man. If indeed you do not want to marry Sian, uncle accept. However, there is one thing that uncle wants to tell you.” Damian to Bara.

“What is uncle?”

Before answering, Damian first took out a photo. The photo is of his daughter Sian. Damian then gave the photo to Bara saying.

“Uncle wants you to see this photo of Sian, and after you see it, uncle wants you to reconsider your decision. Uncle will wait for your decision whenever it is, but you have to rethink your decision carefully, do not just decide like that.” Said Damian as if begging Bara.

Bara looks pensive while staring at the photo of Sian in his hand. Until Damian and Vian left the Hardynata residence Bara was still staring at the photo with deep thought.
