The Lecturer's Jrat
Chapter 4 - A Condition

The residents have left the village hall. And there are only the remaining Village Chief, Grace Yoona's father, Bimo and also a married couple who just got married a few minutes ago.

''May your marriage last, congratulations!'' exclaimed the Village Chief to the two brides.

Yoona glanced at him sharply without wanting to answer him, let alone Arthan who did not turn her head the slightest bit towards him. Feeling neglected, the village chief begged him to leave, leaving them there.

''Daddy! dad's outrageous!'' yoona screeched at her father who could only sigh and rub the head of her daughter.

''Yoona Navia, I'm doing this for your own good. I don't want to see you paraded around the village. Do you want to?'' Yoona shook her head with the face she had drowned in her own palm, she cried again there.

''But, I know that Yoona has a boyfriend!'' rengek Yoona is like a 17-year-old girl, but she is now 22 years old.

Yes, Yoona is the only child after the death of her sister. And Grace also spoils Yoona. So he behaved like that to his father.

''Dad knows, but it's just a candidate, not a girlfriend. It's already! now that you are a wife of the Son of Grace, how you marry, that is the rule of the power. But clearly you are now his legal wife, said Grace. Grace glanced at Arthan who was still silent with the face as flat as possible.

''And you! I tipped him off, never think of hurting him!'' threaten Grace firmly on Arthan.

Arthan nodded faintly as he replied, Fine sir, I will hold onto my wedding vows!'' answer firmly Arthan.

''Ok! Yoona will accept this marriage, on condition!''

Grace, Bimo and Arthan looked at Yoona in a fixed manner, waiting for what she was going to throw next.

Grace looked at Arthan, and it just so happened that Arthan was looking at her. The 33-year-old lecturer gave a marked nod that he would accept any conditions that would be said to Yoona.

''Say dear, '' said Grace gently.

''I want this wedding not to be known to everyone, especially my college friends! and Mr. Lecturer can't arrange me either!''

Grace sighed harshly, she knew very well the nature of her son, the stubbornness.

''How's Nak?'' ask Grace to Arthan.

''Earlier forgive me. I accept the first condition but not the second. I don't mind if you want to hide our status, but on the second condition, I think it's unfair.''

Grace paused her speech for a moment, sighed then resumed her sentence.

''However, the way we marry, we are still a religious legal married couple, even though it is not legal in the eyes of the law. And for yourself, now is my responsibility entirely.''

Grace and Bimo nodded their heads, they agreed with what Arthan said. Because indeed the life of a wife is the responsibility of a husband no matter how they get married. If he deliberately ignores the wife, it is sin that he certainly can.

''Yoona, Father's son.., what your husband said, that's true. While your girl, you are Dad's responsibility, but after you get married, you are your husband's responsibility.''

''Ok, ok! but I don't want to stay in the first place! because the word in-laws is evil!''

''It just so happened that my mother was dead, and my father did not live in Indonesia, Arthan said.

''Yes already! you guys going back to the villa or straight to Jakarta?'' bimo interrupted the newlyweds conversation.

''Go Villa! because if one of us does not return, they will be confused, Arthan replied.

''Really, we have to go back to the villa.''

Arthan and Yoona nod their heads together, Grace rubbing the top of Yoona's head fondly. His heart was so sad because it turned out that this promising child was no longer his responsibility. Arthan grabbed Grace's hand and kissed the back of her father-in-law's hand.

Grace smiled warmly, even though she had just met Arthan, the heart was very sure that Arthan was the right man for her children.

Grace passed by with her car. Without them knowing the half-century old man shed his tears because until now he did not expect that his daughter already belonged to another man in a sudden way.

So they returned to the villa on foot, which happened to be raining had stopped. There was no chatter along the way, Yoona walked in front while Arthan and Bimo walked behind her.

Arthan looked straight ahead, precisely at Yoona who was walking while continuing to kick the pebbles. He knew that Yoona was still crying because it was seen from the movement of her shoulders and hands that occasionally wiped tears.

''Congratulations to you!'' bimo whispered to Arthan who only glanced at him.

''I did not expect, your soul mate this fast, '' he said again by nudging Arthan's arm.

''Shut your mouth!''

''Ck, you're so fierce. Oh yes you have to be patient for the next two days, because the first night will be delayed, Bimo who then laughed loosely, so it sounded upset from Yoona whose steps were increasingly accelerated.

A few moments later, they arrived at the villa which turned out to be electric there. Yoona opens the door and closes it with a little slamming, not even the calls of her friends, none of which Yoona answers.

Arthan and Bimo join the others. Who's putting together the events tomorrow morning.

''Una why yes?'' amel asked Yoona's friend to the others.

''Yeah, why is he suddenly like that? what else is the red cross?'' timpal Wulan, another friend of Yoona's.

''Yoona's elbow hurt, '' said another Yoona friend.

''Ssttt, asked Mr. Bimo gih, '' whispered Amel to Wulan, and without answering, Wulan just walked over to his two Lecturers.

''Sir, Una why?'' ask Wulan without further ado.

''Maybe he's tired. Let it go first, said Bimo.

A handsome young man who was recording the order of tomorrow's event, turned his head quickly when he heard Yoona's name called. He listened to them with his ears wide open.

''But sir, why is Yoona's elbow bleeding?''

Wulan's question made the young man immediately turn his head, and stand up to Wulan.

''Bloody?'' insist Noval, yes the young man is named Noval.

Without saying anything else, Noval passed away after handing Wulan the list board, walking quickly towards the direction where Yoona left. With a worried face.

Seeing that, Arthan was just about to catch up with Noval to prevent it, but Bimo quickly prevented it. ''Take her terms to you, '' Bimo whispered to Arthan who could only snort in annoyance.

**HAPPY...
