Andina put her bag on the dresser. He pulled out a brown envelope from the bag. He gave the envelope to Akhyar.
“I've compiled all the terms in this file.”
Akhyar's forehead shriveled. He took the chocolate envelope from Andina's hand. Get him the contents of that envelope.
“What is this?” akhyar asked when he found two pieces of paper inside the envelope.
“Agreement letter?”
“Iya. You know for yourself that I don't want this marriage . I'm forced. So too with you. I know you don't want to marry me.”
“What looks too clear on my face?” Akhyar laughed cynically.
Andina nodded. “Iya. Very plainly. What I heard also from the people at the college, you're still dating Sania, ‘ right? Since I was thinking about the relationship between the two of you, that's why I made this agreement letter.”
Akhyar read one by one the articles of agreement on the paper he held. He laughed, after reading all these things.
“Wah, Mbak Andina's imagination is good too, yes! Party B shall not govern Party A. Party B is prohibited from touching Party A during marriage. Each Party is free to do anything outside the home as long as it does not make others suspicious. The wedding will end no later than two months after the baby Party A is born.” Akhyar recites four chapters between them.
“No problem, ‘kan?” Andina crossed her arms around her chest.
Akhyar read back the agreement letter in his hand carefully. There is nothing to do with it except marriage itself.
Not wasting any longer. Akhyar took out a pen from inside the bag. The agreement was signed without asking for more.
“Already. Our business is done, isn't it, Ma'am? I'm gonna go. I sif tonight.”
Andina laughs. “With you signed the letter, our business has only just begun, Akhyar. You should quit your job now and start working at Papa's company. We also have to go to the boutique to find a suit and wedding dress. You don't think you'll wear a t-shirt or checkered shirt in front of a penghulu, ‘ do you?”
Both of Akhyar's eyebrows almost intertwined when he heard Andina's words. “Jas and dresses? Do we need that? It's just a fake marriage. We're not really going to be married.”
Andina approached Akhyar. He took the agreement the man held. “The most convincing lies are those committed wholeheartedly. Although this is a fake marriage we must be total.”
Akhyar rolled his eyeballs. “Good. I'm going with Andina to the boutique. But not today. I have to finish my business first.”
“OK. No problem.”
After Andina agreed, Akhyar left Andina's room. He ran up the stairs. On the last rung of the stairs, he meets Bu Rini, Andina's mother.
“Good day, Bu.” Akhyar was about to pass through Bu Rini. However, Miss Rini blocked her way.
“Yes. I've heard about my marriage to Mbak Andina, Bu.” Akhyar cut off Bu Rini's words. “I have also signed a letter of agreement with Mbak Andina.”
The look on Bu Rini's face looked unfriendly and Akhyar disliked it. The one who needs help now is her family Bu Rini. However, why did the woman continue to have a sour face in front of her?
“You must follow all the articles contained in the agreement. Don'worry. You will be paid double the salary you get now.”
Akhyar. “I don't need that, Mom. Mr. Satrio has helped me and my mother a lot. Think of this as a return for the good of your family. Sorry, Madam. I was in a hurry.”
Uncomfortable lingering in front of Bu Rini, Akhyar left just as the woman was about to open her mouth.
“All members of this family really have the advantage to make people upset,” grumbled Akhyar when he met his mother in the kitchen. He left the house through the back door.
Bu Nani just stared at her son's back. He can't wait for anything anymore. A guilty feeling filled his chest. If there was another way to return the favor to Mr. Satrio's family, he would have done it. However, there is no other way to know it. He can't help Mr. Satrio's financial problems right now. The savings in the bank are nothing compared to the existing Bu Rini jewelry.
Meanwhile, in the room, Andina stared at Akhyar's signature on the covenant letter while lying on the bed. He wanted to scream, take off everything that was stuck in his chest. He felt his life was really shit. In the midst of her pregnancy, she cannot be with the man she loves.
After finding out she was pregnant, Andina called Ian. Ian did not lift. He then went to the man's house to ask Ian's news after a week of not getting news. Ian's phone is missing. Ian told his family a few days ago by e-mail.
While at Ian's house, Andina was nauseous until her body collapsed. Ian's mother took Andina to a nearby clinic. There Ian's family learns that Andina is pregnant. In fact, Andina intends to hide it first from everyone.
That night, Miss Rini came to Andina's room. Ms. Rini asked Andina not to tell Ian about the pregnancy. Ian's family wants the man to focus on finishing his college first.
Andina refused. He did not want to endure this all alone. He needs Ian by his side. Unfortunately, the sentence uttered by Bu Rini next made Andina unable to argue anymore.
“Papa will be in jail if you do not comply, Din,” said Bu Rini at the time.
All this time, Andina did not care and did not want to know how her father was looking for money. He knew all his wishes were always fulfilled. The luxury items he wanted were always bought.
Actually, there's no problem with Mr. Satrio's hotel business. It's just that Mr. Satrio is unlucky. He was deceived by his own best friend in a bodong investment. Because of his own best friend, Mr. Satrio believed so easily that he lost hundreds of billions.
The money used for this investment is the company's money. To return it, Mr. Satrio was forced to borrow from the bank until he reached the loan limit. In addition, Mr. Satrio still has to pay monthly which he is not necessarily able to meet. It was at this point that Ian's family came to offer assistance that could not be refused even on the condition that incriminated Andina.
Andina's tears fell. He jerks. He recalled the moment when Ian returned to Indonesia four months ago. They spend time together. Vacation to Labuan Bajo, enjoy the various beauty of the sea there.
After drowning in a sea of happy moments, Andina grabs her phone. He opened a photo gallery. Looked at the photo of Ian while smiling bitterly.
“Quick return. I need you here. Take me with you.”
