Against Restu
MR Chapter 45: Falling in love is not wrong

Papa Ken breathed his long breath, inexplicably speaking of heart and confidence felt so heavy.

" Why are you still asking? Did Anne ever talk about this before?" Papa Ken answered with a question because he knew Anne and Brian would know if they were different. Different in a belief held.

Brian looked down for a moment, then followed staring straight at the sky which was then slightly covered in fog.

" Is there no other way if we want to be together?" ask Brian sincerely asking for a solution.

Papa Ken stood up from his seat, with his hands folded in front of his chest.

" No, because our religion does not allow interfaith marriage. Don't you know that too, Bri? " said Papa Ken because previously Brian also watched the remarriage between Mama Dira and Papa Ken after a dozen years apart.

At that time, Mama Dira had to convert first, so it was not clear that Brian also had to do the same if he wanted to be with Anne. Except, Brian just wants to be with Anne no more than a lover.

" And I'm sorry, not just me. But, there are still two possessive men, who will oppose your relationship if you don't change that belief. No matter how good you are, I can't accept a marriage of different faiths!" papa Ken said full of affirmation, making Brian seemed slapped by the fact that his journey to be with Anne will not be easy.

Papa Ken only said two because both men would be very difficult to conquer other than him. During this time, Anne was cared for and protected by three overprotective men who were very difficult to subdue. So, if you want to be with Anne, it won't be that easy. Can conquer Papa Ken, not necessarily be able to conquer his twin brothers Kean and Lean.

...***...

After Brian died, Papa Ken immediately called Anne to come out of his room. Today, he wanted to ask the various questions that continued to dance around in his mind. Honestly, Papa Ken never thought this would happen because he thought that Brian would only think of Anne as his adopted sister, nothing more.

Hearing her Papa want to talk, made the beautiful girl directly out of her room and rushed to embrace the Papa like what she usually does. Although she was twenty years old, Anne was still spoiled when she was with her Mom and Dad.

" Anne, sit there. There's something Papa wants to talk about" said Papa Ken in a cold-sounding tone. The man's cold attitude is still attached from the past until now, never fade. Especially when he wanted to speak something serious, his friendly and smiling face instantly disappeared.

" What's up, Pa?" asked Anne who was a little confused by the change in her Papa's attitude.

What's the matter? Why do I suddenly feel bad, like something bad is going to happen? Was Papa angry because of my carelessness this morning? Anne was still at war with her own thoughts because Papa Ken was still silent without a word.

Not long after, Papa Ken's voice spoke.

" Papa wants to, you break up with Brian!" tell Papa Ken who went straight to the point without any stale bases first.

Anne's forehead immediately formed a fine wrinkle when she heard her slightly puzzling Papa's question.

" Don't you mean Papa?" anne was confused. Actually, not only Anne was confused, but Mama Dira was also confused by her husband's attitude and speech.

" Don't pretend you don't know Anne. You and Brian, you're secretly in a special relationship right behind Papa?" guess Papa Ken.

Deg

Anne's heart stopped for a moment when she heard Papa Ken say that she already knew about her love apprentice relationship.

" Where's Pa-pa ta-hu from__? "ask Anne in a stammering voice. Anne was very careful about hiding this relationship. Did Seva say that? Or Papa Ken has another spy besides Seva?

"So right if you're dating?" obviously Papa Ken made Mama Dira gawk.

Whahuh? A boyfriend? Anne and Brian? Why could?

" Don't you say what?" Now Mama Dira who asked because she really did not understand and was shocked.

" You asked Anne how long she's been dating Brian" said Papa Ken.

" Anne ..," Mama Dira could not ask again when she saw the look on Anne's face that seemed afraid, mixed with nervousness.

" But Anne's not dating Brian, we're just __"

" Just love each other, behave like a couple and often go on vacation together. Aye! That's what you want to say! " cut Papa Ken in a high and affirmative tone.

Honestly, Papa Ken is currently in a bad mood after hearing Brian say that he and Anne both love each other. Yes, at the age of Anne who has reached adulthood, it is undeniable that her daughter will experience her name in love.

In fact, Nala, who is smaller than Anne, is married and will become a mother. But the thing is, Anne fell in love with someone who ...

Papa Ken is so confused himself, he is also impossible to blame the heart for falling in love with someone who is not right. Moreover, Anne's loved one is Brian, a man of a million charms. In terms of whatun he is not bad, it can be included in the category of dream daughter-in-law, handsome face, good temper, smart, but unfortunately different beliefs.

Maybe, for some people it is commonplace, but for Papa Ken, it is a very serious thing. However, he also could not completely blame Anne. Because this happens also as a result of an opportunity. The opportunity to be together often so that the seeds of love arise.

Meanwhile, Anne can only stay still and look down because she will definitely lose if she clashes with her Father who looks angry.

"Anne, Papa doesn't forbid you to fall in love, but__ Papa doesn't like the way Anne lied and hid like this. "

"Anne apologizes, Pa. .., "the weeping Anne shed.

" Because it's happened, Papa just wants you to come back to Indonesia!" papa Ken said in a commanding tone.

Anne was flabbergasted, she could not believe that her Papa suddenly said something like this.

"Pa, but Anne __"

" Papa doesn't need a rejection from you!"

Duars

Like being struck by lightning in broad daylight. Anne really does not understand the way her father thought, is not only caught dating, does it have to be all? After all, Anne had never done anything beyond the limit either. If he goes back to Indonesia, then what about his studies here?
