Stuck In The Wrong Marriage

Happy reading…

It had never crossed Hera’s mind that she would face such a heavy atmosphere with the Haidar family. It was his own fault for easily accepting Haidar’s invitation to meet his parents.

But Hera couldn’t dodge either. How long want? As long as she still wants to be with Haidar, she must be prepared to face this kind of situation. Sooner or later. No matter how Shila did not want to look at her again. The woman’s attitude had changed one hundred and eighty degrees. No more warm stares, friendly smiles and caresses of affection. But Hera tried to stay calm. Don’t want to be bothered at all.

“Your child is asleep?” asked Thomas after Hera and Haidar sat with them in the living room for a few minutes. The question was directed to Hera.

“Yes,” Hera replied curtly with mixed feelings. It turned out that Haidar’s father also knew her status.

“Ah, thank goodness,” said Thomas with a smile.

Hera didn’t know whether to be happy or sad. The man could have smiled but Hera could still see a hint of disappointment on the middle-aged man’s face.

“I apologize for not previously informing you about Hera’s status,” said Haidar finally speaking up. “I think if I love her, you won’t mind anymore,” he continued, now looking at Shila because basically that sentence was meant for his mother.

“We really don’t mind who you love, son. But… does it have to be a widow?” asked Shila. Hera turned to look at the woman. Her heart was pinched. It hurts to hear Shila takes issue with her status.

“So what if Hera is a widow, Mom?” Haidar asked, unable to stop thinking. It was also a shame because earlier when Hera said this, Haidar really didn’t want to believe it. “She’s a woman from a good family and most importantly I love her. I thought you guys wouldn’t mind this trivial thing,” he said again annoyed and disappointed at the same time. Haidar felt he failed to recognize his own parents.

Shila and Thomas didn’t move in their place. Did not respond to Haidar’s words. They are still at war with each other’s minds.

“I’m sorry that I didn’t live up to your expectations as the ideal daughter-in-law of the Pratama family,” Hera said, making the three people glance at her. “I am indeed only a widow with one child who dares to love your son. Perhaps my status embarrasses you to introduce me as a future daughter-in-law. I really understand that, but if given the opportunity I will prove that this widow with one child can be a good daughter-in-law.” she continued, making Haidar’s eyes glow with pride and emotion. Hera’s return had made him fall in love with her firm and unyielding attitude to maintain their relationship.

Haidar held tightly to Hera’s hand, which had been intertwined with each other since earlier. They support each other by holding hands so tightly.

We can get through this. The two of them looked like they said that.

Haidar glanced at his father and mother alternately. “See? What else made Father and Mother reject Hera? She is the best among the best. And I don’t want to find anyone else. I love her and Hera loves me too. Even Hera is able to prove that she is worthy of being the daughter-in-law of the Pratama family. ”

“But Haidar—”Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

“I will stay with Hera. With or without your blessing,” said Haidar, quickly interrupting Shila’s words. The woman could only gape in disbelief. The son, who so far has never snapped or denied what he said, today is the first time he has done these two things just because of a woman. Not only Shila, Hera and Thomas were also surprised by Haidar’s attitude.

“Haidar, are you aware of what you’re saying?” asked Thomas slightly raising his voice. “Why are you being such a rebellious child?” he said again with a confused face.

“That’s because of the attitude of the father and mother themselves. So what if Hera is a widow? The ones who will go through this relationship are also us,” said Haidar, still not to be outdone.

“But not in this way, Haidar.” Hera spoke again, seeing that the feud between father and son seemed endless.

“Then how are you going to solve it?” asked Shila challenging Hera.

“I have submitted a suggestion to you. Give me the opportunity to prove that I can be the future daughter-in-law that you want,” said Hera.

“Okay, we’ll give it to you,” Thomas agreed. He felt that Hera’s suggestion was the best decision they could make for now. Besides, there’s no point in arguing because neither of them will budge. Where did Haidar get his stubbornness from, of course from his father.

Hera and Haidar smiled happily there but it didn’t last long.

“Then what if you fail?” asked Shila making the atmosphere tense again.

“Mother, what are you saying?” Haidar asked with a confused face. Though they are already happy because in the end their relationship will get the blessing.

“In a business we must always be prepared for two possibilities. Succeed or fail. And when Hera succeeds in proving herself, she will become part of the Primary family. But what if she fails? That’s what Mother wants to know, what will you do, Hera ?” said Shila with a look that was difficult to interpret.

Hera really agreed with what Shila said. Even before making this suggestion, Hera had thought about all the consequences that would occur in the future. Until without thinking, the woman immediately answered Shila’s question with a face that was so calm and calm.

“I think you know very well what the answer is,” said Hera. “Of course I will give up on my relationship with Haidar.”

An answer that somehow would make Hera regret it in the future.
