THE ESCAPED BRIDE ESCAPED
4. Deal

The door to the room is back open. Aya looked there. But before he spoke, a heavy voice asked. "What the hell is screaming all the time. Everyone in the house can be saved because of you!"

Aya quiet. Regardless, Aya did not dare to refute papi's words. He's not that close to papi. There was a sense of contempt and regret in his heart. Realizing the many mistakes that harmed papi and made the old man sick many times.

"Say what's up!" repeat papi again.

"Don't want to see him here!" gayatri replied while looking down. But his voice still sounded firm.

"He called you earlier, but he didn't pick up. That's why he came here. He said you wanted to ask for additional conditions" explained papi.

"Aya's phone is lowbet, so it's dead." I found an excuse quickly.

"Then, talk about your terms carefully. Don't be like an uncivilized person who keeps yelling."

Papi walked to the door. But before closing the door, turn around again. "One more time yell, Papi lock you in the barn!" threaten papi's.

He could only sit still and bite his lips. Papi knew he was afraid of mice and the room was narrow and dark, so threatened to be locked up in a warehouse.

After the door closed, Aya sat quietly on the edge of the bed. He forgot about the God who was still standing by the door. What was on his head right now was the shadow of the dark warehouse as well as the wandering rats.

His shoulders were horrified unwittingly. Her tears just fell. His legs rose and were hugged with his head lowered.

The god could see that the threat of his future in-laws had a huge impact on the girl. The girl who was originally ferocious, so like a frightened child. The god approached the bed and sat by the bed.

"Don't worry, I won't let you get locked up in the barn" the gentle God persuaded.

But Gayatri is not. He was drowning in his own shadow. The gods could see the body shaking. Heart's out.

"What really happened to him? the word warehouse alone could make him so scared that he trembled?"

The god pulled the blanket stacked in the middle of the mattress and enveloped Aya. The girl was soft.

"Yes, listen to my words. From now on, I will be your support. Whatever your conditions, I will fulfill. I won't let anyone threaten you. Not even Om Sangaji."

The words of the Gods just slid by. He himself was surprised by her reaction after seeing Aya's real fear. His heart felt pain seeing the ferocious girl suddenly like a cat doused in water.

Gayatri's crying broke. His body that was just trembling, was now violently shaken. The god hugged his back tighter. "This girl must have been holding something for so long and no one understands" thought the God of Trenyuh. He let her cry until she was satisfied for some time.

"Sorry ...." Aya straighten the body. Get rid of the arms of God on his back and walk to the bathroom.

The gods only saw him. Then type a message on his phone. "Find out about her future husband!" His face was as stiff as a monument wall.

Aya came out of the bathroom with a slightly wet face. It's really emotionally exhausted. Her eyes are very swollen, will be difficult to trick by professional MUA though. The girl sat on the chair, away from the Gods.

"Tell me what your terms are." The god repeated his words.

"Help me destroy Reynald and his family, just as he destroyed and slandered me and my family!" Aya said firmly and clearly. He has rediscovered his calm.

"Who is Reynald?" ask God.

"The man who wanted to marry me last year!" gayatri replied without hesitation.

"There's something I don't understand here. All I hear is, he's your own candidate. No one's setting you up. Then why did you run away two days before you got married?" ask God.

"Because that day it was all revealed!" Aya told me what happened to the gods.

After a long time, God finally understood the cause of the failure of the marriage. "Why don't you just tell your family, instead of running away and being accused?" ask the Lord wonder.

"Because he threatened to imprison me, if the marriage was annulled" Aya replied.

"alright. Let's get the swindler's family back. But of course it's not easy. I need a lot of time to do my job. While our wedding day is a week less." The gods tried to bargain for Gayatri's terms.

But the girl shook her head. "No!" answer firmly. "Your time is only six days! If you can't, then don't blame me for refusing to marry you!"

"You're a hard and stiff man. Don't you regret not marrying me?" ask the man.

"You're nobody. Just a stupid guy I don't know!" reply Gayatri coldly.

The god felt pain at the end of his heart earning the nickname of a foolish man. But the two corners of his lips were attracted to form a smile. "A very interesting girl," she said.

"What if I also lose like Bandung Bondowoso? Aren't you afraid of nails to become a statue?" god Goda.

"Do you have any magic skills like him?" Gayatri asked back and turned to the gods.

The god shook his head with a smile on his face.

"Then don't lift yourself too high!" gayatri said spicy. "If you're that good, then the time for your terms is not a week, but just one night!"

The god grimaced hearing Gayatri's words. "He's very smart! But why not work and just stay home? Withdrawalor because too often insulted and scorned by people outside?" inner God. Gayatri, his future wife is still a mystery to him.

"You really can't negotiate the term of your terms? Isn't revenge still possible after we get married?" hail the Gods again.

"If you can't, get out of the way! Pull proposals! And bring back whatever you sent here!" reply Gayatri rough.

The god breathed heavily. "You're testing me, aren't you? Want to see if I back off or not with this senseless challenge? Let me tell you. Once I've decided, then no one can stop me. That's a god's promise!"

The man stood up from the bed and stepped into the door. He doesn't look back anymore. Get out and the door is locked.

Gayatri's body, which had been sitting upright, was now curved. His defense has reached its limit. He doesn't like to be rude, but that's the only way to keep out men who want to try.

*****

After exiting Aya's room, the Deity headed straight for the living room. There are two of Gayatri's parents. "Om, I'm saying goodbye first" said the god.

"How are you talking? Are the conditions burdensome?" ask mami worried.

"I'll try to fulfill it." The god nodded his head.Gayatri's papa drove his future son-in-law to the front door.

In the living room, my mother cried again. "Will this marriage fail again?" sad stuff. She is pessimistic this plan will go smoothly, seeing the strength of Aya's rejection.

"Why not just cancel it anyway, Pi? Later we will return to bear the shame because of Mbak Aya!" sulcan Radit.

"Well, the god wants it. You saw the determination on his face. He's as tough as your mom. Whatever Aya's conditions, she must be challenged to try first, just give up. He's not one to lose!" beber papi's.

"But, if later it turns out to fail, the marriage also failed because Mbak Aya refused. Aren't we gonna be embarrassed again?" radit's protests are still unhappy,

"That's why papi and mami plan a simple wedding. If the event is successful, we will hold the recipe" explained papi again.

"Yes .. It's up to papi and mami. Radit just gave me consideration."

Papi nodded and continued to pat her hands, to persuade her to stop crying.
