The Married With Stranger
The shock!

The car Zach was driving in had just entered the gate of the same house when he first met Agnese. After making sure the engine of the car being driven off, he immediately went down without heeding Agnese who was busy slowly massaging her sprained legs.

"Basin insensitive men!" gerutu Agnese's.

Annoyed, Agnese opened the door and descended slowly. He holds on to the body of the car so that the balance is maintained. After successfully closing the door, he walked over shakily as he endured the pain. He can't catch Zach who has already entered the house.

When he almost reached the doorknob, someone greeted Agnese from behind to make himself fall with his legs overloaded so that he complained of pain. He saw a woman with a bulging stomach helping him stand up. However, unable to endure the pain, he fell back down.

Agnese gently massaged the sprained part of her leg, then looked at the woman who had helped her with a brief smile. "It's okay, I can stand on my own."

Both of Agnese's hands rested on the floor and her untouched legs slowly stepped on the floor. Withstanding the pain, the girl slowly walked over. Fortunately, the woman quickly opened the door so that she could continue walking without stopping.

Once he reached the sofa, Agnese immediately flicked her body and closed her eyes without heeding the few people who were also sitting on the sofa.

"Zach! I'm home!" shouted someone who managed to make the eyelids of the girl in school uniform wide open.

Quickly, Agnese immediately fixed her sitting position and bowed. He felt very awkward to be among them especially he was in the house of people who are not too well known. Inwardly, Agnese kept chanting prayers because she very much did not want to get stuck in trouble again. It's been pretty tied up with one shitty guy.

There were steps coming down the stairs with the question, "Why are you here?!"

Their gazes all led to the source of the sound. It looks like Zach has just finished changing clothes from a suit to a plain white shirt. The man came down the last rung of stairs and immediately greeted the embrace of the sister who was sitting right on the sofa beside Agnese.

Zach nudged Rachel's forehead. "You already know you're pregnant, you still love to travel!"

"Hey! It was the doctor who told me to move a lot. Your sister wants to give birth normally, you know!"

Zach laughed disparagingly. "normal? You sure?"

"of course! I've decided it."

"I can't imagine how the maternity ward is going when you have to fight to give birth to my niece. The doctors and nurses who helped you may have changed your ears because your voice would have damaged their auditory nerves" Zach sneered with another laugh, except Agnese who was just listening to their conversation.

One minute.

Two minutes.

Even up to ten minutes, still no one continued the conversation. They were silent and focused on each other's thoughts. However, not long after, Andy's voice broke the silence.

"Is she the woman you're going to marry?" asked Andy while pointing at the figure of Agnese using the gaze of the eyes.

"No!" Agnese and Zach answer Andy's questions simultaneously.

They looked at each other for a few seconds, then Agnese who first cut off eye contact by throwing her face in the other direction.

Both Agnese and Zach were silent. If Agnese is silent because she does not know what to answer, Zach is silent because he fought against his heart. That made Andy demand answers.

"Why are you guys quiet?" ask Andy again.

Agnese scratched the trunk of her nose for a moment. "Actually, I'm just a student at Dal ...."

"Yes, she's the girl I'm going to marry!" cut Zach out suddenly which makes Agnese almost choke on her own saliva.

Agnese looked at Zach with a gaze asking for an explanation. However, the man who was stared at instead distracted her by playing Rachel's hair.

Agnese grew furious. He doesn't think about Zach. Be married? How come? They even just got to know. It happened because of an unexpected incident that night. The girl let out a long sigh and let out a forced smile to Andy because she knew she was being stared at by the middle-aged man.

...🍒🍒🍒...

They all gathered at the dining table, not least Agnese who was forced to join despite feeling very awkward being in the middle of the Zach family.

The dinner went solemnly. From the beginning to near the middle of the dinner, only the sound of spoons and forks clashing. Moments later, Andy sipped some wine as a sign he had finished his dinner.

Andy looked at Zach and Agnese in turn, then smiled. "What do you like about Zach?" ask Andy.

"Eh?" Andy repeated his question as Zach stepped on Agnese's foot until the girl spontaneously replied, "He's handsome!"

Andy and the others laugh at Agnese while the girl is just a wave. After that, Andy again took a sip of the fermented drink and put his hand on the table while looking at the son, Zach.

"Yes, he does have a great personality" Andy said.

Agnese was silent for a moment and equated the personality between Zach and Andy.

It turned out that his sky-high level of confidence he had gained from his father. Father and son are the same.

Agnese returned to smile with a forced response to Andy's words. He put a spoonful of food back in his mouth and said, "Actually .. he's weird."

"Any?" chirp Rachel.

Agnese nodded. "Yes. Even he's so weird."

"Why?" ask Andy enthusiastically.

"Because ...."
