Rio arrived at his house and was greeted by Madam Mira.
"Ma Assalamualaikum."
"Guiland, Rio."
Rio sat on the sofa opposite Madam Mira.
"It just so happens that you Yo, Mama wants to talk about something very serious to you."
"What do you want to talk to? it just so happened that Rio also had something to talk about with mama."
"Oh yeah, Mama first or you first?"
"Ehm, because mom is a parent, Mama used to be."
Madam Mira smiled.
"Mama will tell you if you've got a good wife for you."
"Good wife to me ma?" Rio became astonished, because suddenly his mother was talking about the future wife.
" Yes you are already , when else think about your future. Don't you want to go to the stairs?"
"Yes want dong ma, and that's what I want to say to Mama right now."
Madam Mira stared fixedly at Rio.
"Actually I already have my own future wife Ma. This is what I'm telling you about my future wife."
"Who ? the widow?" asked Madame Mira with a bit of cynicism.
Rio was shocked to hear the words of Madame Mira who impressed Ketus, even though her mother never spoke Ketus to herself or others .
"Zakira is Ma's widow, but I'm sure she's a good woman."
"Woman all right you said Rio?! Where there is a good woman who cheats until giving birth to a child when her husband is working abroad ."
"Wait for Mah, Mama knows about Zakira from where ?"asked Rio in surprise .
"You don't need to know where Rio is from, which Mama obviously doesn't like if you're close to Zakira. Well you see for yourself, the woman is already a widow with two children, and one child is sick again, if you marry her it is the same You are destroying your own offspring," said Mrs Amira
" But ma, that's not true. Zakira was a good girl a single parent who was abandoned by her husband.again who suffered from thalassemia disease was not Zakira, but her ex-husband, and Zakira was not having an affair, Zakira, but she was raped by her own boss until she became pregnant 'it happened while her husband was overseas."
"One of the proofs that Zakira is a good woman, is that she didn't kill her womb even though it was a child of rape ."
"Once no! no Rio! every parent wants the best for their child, especially your only son. Mama hope you don't have to deal with Zakira anymore ."
"But Ma..."
"Nothing but but Rio !you get ready, Mama's gonna propose to a woman who's more worthy of you."
Rio so bengong looked at Madam Mira . Unusually, the Mother forced her will .
Come Rio! Mama has promised Aunt Hesty, right now we will apply for Nayla for you .
"Huh Nayla?"
"Yes, you know Nayla, right?"
" Know dong, but Ma? Why the rush, I haven't explained about Zakira with mama, I can prove that Zakira is a good girl."
"Here you do not need to explain anything else, anyway mama does not agree you are close to Zakira, let alone establish a relationship with Zakira!"
"Let's go now to Aunt Hesty's house, right now, mama is proposing her daughter to you!" Madam Mira pulled Rio Yang's hand seemingly reluctant to move from her seat.
Rio was indeed a submissive child That's why he didn't dare to go against his mother's orders .
In the car Rio again persuaded Madam Mira .
"Ma, Mama thought again if you want to match me. indeed know Nayla, but I do not love her ma.
"Rio after you get married later you will also love your wife. moreover Nayla is a sholeha child, smart and the most important thing is that the weight is clear."
" But Ma I've promised sa...," again Rio's words stopped .
"Be assured that what you give is for your own good and for the good of all of us."
At that time Rio could not dodge When he arrived there Madam Mira immediately stated her intention to propose to her daughter Hesty's mother.
And again Rio could not do anything because at that time also Madam Mira and Bu Hesti set the date of their wedding .
Rio and Nayla already know each other, as both of their parents are friendly. it's just that he never thought that his mother would match him with Nayla and immediately set their wedding date without giving him a chance to refuse.

After a 10-day absence from his office, Zakira returned to her usual activities .Zakira was in her room with her busyness heard the door being knocked from the outside .
"Just enter it unlocked" said Zakira as she turned to the door .
"Hay Yo, greet Zakira kindly."
"Hay too. Za, there's something I want to talk to you about" Rio said as he pulled the chair that was before Zakira.
"Speak, "say Zakira while flipping through the files on the table .
Rio was silent for a while, thus making Zakira's gaze fixed on him.
"Why do you look so sad, Yo?"
"Za I hope you're not disappointed with what I'll say later ."
Zakira gave a smile.it seemed like she already knew what Rio was going to talk about.
"Yes just say it," said Zakira as she flipped through the paper she was holding .
"Za, after dropping off Akbar yesterday I intend to talk about our relationship with my mother ."
"And it turns out my mother has a future wife for me Za."
Zakira smiled as she looked towards Rio .
"He even forced me to propose to the girl, and when he arrived at the girl's house Mama immediately decided our wedding day ."
Rio was silent while looking at Zakira's face smile .
"I've guessed Yo, so I won't be discouraged. Anyway I realize I don't deserve you Yo, that's why I don't expect anything."
"I keep my heart from having more feelings for you and maybe for other men, because I have promised to keep the trust of the company entrusted to Aufar, and if I get married, then I will, I'm afraid I can't afford to run this Amanah "
Rio's listening carefully to Zakira's words.
"At the same time I have a sickly child, well for now Akbar and Aufar really need my attention, even for them I lack time let alone I have to divide my time status into my husband ."
"So you're not angry, are you Za?"
Zakira embali smiled
"Yes, yo, why should I be angry."
"That means we can stay friends right ?"
'Hahaha of course yo !"
"Then I can come to your house as a friend and play with your children ?"
"It's just that you don't lure them .Slowly you tell them that you are getting married.Yes even though they are small children, but at least that way they don't expect if you'll be a connecting father for them because you already have a future wife ."
"Thank you for your understanding, I'm really amazed at women like you Za, baby maybe we're not a match."
"Thank you too Yo, I'm also amazed at a man who would appreciate a woman who would be a close friend of me and my children all this time ."
"Sama-sama," Rio said with a smile .
"Yes already , then as a friend I treat you to eat how ?" ask Rio .
"Let's who's afraid of coincidentally my task is also done !"
Rio and Zakira went out to eat together as friends and business relations.
