Thinking about what would happen if she succeeded in achieving her dream, not to have to leave her fate, and future to someone Ara doesn't like, made her footsteps feel light as she walked out of Andra's house.
"Fig!" just out of the door of Andra's house, someone immediately called him from a distance.
Turning to the source of the voice, there Ara saw a middle-aged woman who was her future mother-in-law.
zaskia, her future in-laws across the street poked her head out of the rear car window, and was looking at her with a worried look.
"Auntie? How did you get here?" approached him, and stood in front of the car door, Ara asked in a surprised tone.
"Don't call me Auntie. You will soon be Rino's husband, and son-in-law at my house. Why don't you just call Mother?"
"Okay mom." Ara nodded, and answered doubtfully.
"Haha.. don't hesitate, we are not outsiders." Zaskia's mother laughed happily at her new name.
While Ara just nodded shyly and smiled awkwardly.
Zaskia's mother also smiled at Ara's behavior, but soon she seemed to remember something, and immediately said to Ara again. "Forget mannersGet in the car quickly."
"Did something happen, Mom?" Seeing the change in Mother Zaskia's expression, Ara was a little curious.
"Get in the car first, we'll talk as we walk." Zaskia's mother did not answer, and urged her.
"Okay."
Ara's hand started to open the car door, and when one foot just got into the car, she frowned slightly, and exclaimed. "Ouch!"
"What's wrong, child Ara? Is something hurting?" Zaskia's mother immediately asked when she heard Ara's pained voice.
"Ogh, it's okayit's just Ara's leg getting a little pulled, Mom." Ara smiled, and immediately answered quickly.
Just as he put his legs in, and sat down on the chair next to Zaskia's mother, a feeling of pain was felt under his body again. learned from before, this time Ara didn't make a sound, and only frowned to hold it in.
Zaskia's mother, however, saw what happened to her future daughter-in-law. From this incident, he was also able to guess where the center of the pain was.
after all, Mrs. Zaskia is also a woman, she knows if things happen that are sick in the area it may be due to menstruation, or something else.
guessed all the way here, and saw that his future son-in-law had just left the house of Andra, the worst man in the village, suddenly a wild thought popped into his head.
"Son Ara, after yesterday's engagement ceremony, what did you do next? Why are you at Andra's house now?" The thought bothered Zaskia's mother, she couldn't help but ask immediately.
Faced with this question, Ara guessed that her future mother-in-law must be suspicious of her. Especially after what happened just now, but he tried to remain calm, and answered with a smile.
"Yesterday, after the engagement ceremony, Andra offered to take Ara home. Didn't Mother know that too?"
Zaskia's mother nodded.
"Well, that night, we ran out of gas before reaching Ara's houseSo, instead of walking in the middle of the night, we decided to stay at Andra's house. Incidentally Andra's house is also located not too far from our car stop." Ara replied with a smile.
What Ara said was bullshit. But he wouldn't tell the truth either. if she was telling the truth, Ara didn't know what would happen to her fate.
The bride, after the engagement ceremony had just finished, she slept with another man that same night. If this news leaked out, Ara really wouldn't have the face to face her mother.
luckily, this reasoning seemed plausible, and Zaskia's mother gave a long "Ogh" and nodded in disbelief.
"However, next time you should also be careful with that Andra. With his reputation in the village, no one knows what heinous thing he will do next." then Mrs. Zaskia spoke again, and reminded Ara seriously.
Without the need for advice from her mother-in-law, Ara had been praying in her heart for a long time not to meet that bastard again. and with advice this time, Ara nodded again, and convinced herself again and again to stay away from him.
Seeing Ara's seriousness when she heard her advice, Zaskia's mother nodded, and smiled in relief.
"Mr. Anto, let's go, and go to Ara's house immediately." then Mrs. Zaskia saw the driver at the front wheel, and gave the order.
When Ara heard Mother Zaskia's last words, she immediately frowned, and asked.
"Mrs. Zaskia, why do we have to go to my house in such a hurry? Did something serious happen there?"
Zaskia's mother, who was next to her smiled gently, but didn't answer Ara's question.
From her mother-in-law's smile, Ara saw a hint of consolation for her.
"Mom... what happened... My mother, my mother is fine, right?" upon asking this, Ara's voice stiffened, and her eyes began to blur.
Seeing Ara who was about to cry, Zaskia's mother stretched out her hand, stroked Ara's hair and comforted her. "Son Ara, calm down, okay. Everything will be fine."
there was no need to ask anymore, Ara had guessed what had happened. His tears could not be held back anymore began to come out, his chest felt tight, and his breath began to choke.
"Sob.... Sob.... Mother..." Sadness immediately swept through her heart, and an unstoppable cry escaped her mouth.
