Your love gave me life
A Day with Papa

“Where are we going, Pa ?” annabelle asked as she got into Papa Rano's car.

“To a place you have never been,” said Papa while turning on his car.

Annabelle knitted her brows and was confused by Papa Rano's reply but did not know what else to ask.

“Tomorrow you will officially be part of the Hutama family, not just a foster child anymore,” said Papa with a straight forward gaze.

“Is there a wedge in Papa's heart ? Does Papa mind if I become Alden's wife?”

Papa shook his head while laughing softly. His left hand gently stroked Annabelle's head.

“Not there, Papa happy. There was a wedge when you chased Alden but he did not pay attention to you even consider you a bully in his life.”

“Then now ?”

“How now ? You're not sure if Alden loves you, either.”

“Not sure, just feeling like a dream, Pa. Afraid to wake up, the reality is different.

And now I want to hear Papa's view of Alden's love as I.”

”Alden love is also the same as you, even a little excessive. Papa did not expect that the guy who always acts cold and tight as you turns out to be a possessive spoiled man,” said Papa while laughing.

“I was also a surprise, Pa,” said Annabelle while laughing with Papa.

“You must be ready for inner birth when you become Alden's wife. Must be smart to adjust because Alden needs a companion who can compensate him as the successor to Hutama Group.

In the future you must understand the busyness of your husband, learn to trust and understand that your husband is a harsh man who is jealous and possessive.”

“According to Papa, will I be able to be a good wife to Alden ?” asked Annabelle with a slightly worried face.

“Could of course be !” sahut Papa sure while holding one finger Annabelle.

“Not only Papa and Mama but since a long time Om Wira and Aunt Lanny have also seen that you are the right woman to accompany Alden as his wife.”

“I'm really happy, Pa, “ Annabelle returned Papa's hand.

“When Alden decided to marry Sarah, I felt like my life had stopped. Maybe because all this time I felt Mommy had always supported my love for Alden and everything was just a matter of time until Alden accepted Mommy's request.

But while holding onto Alden and Sarah's wedding invitation, part of my life collapsed, I felt ashamed of being overconfident.

It was then that I felt that I had become the most selfish woman who forced God to make Alden my soul mate.

I'm trying to let go of Alden, Pa, but the truth is it's not easy to erase feelings that have grown in the heart over the years.”

“If you can release Alden, there will be no car accident with Sarah,” Papa said with a laugh.

“I like to regret being reckless against Sarah in such a way,” Annabelle smiled faintly.

“That's all the roads you have to go, Belle. Just believe that Alden is your destiny until you are given the opportunity to make Alden realize his feelings through the events of Sarah Belle.”

Annabelle nodded with a smile. Not long Papa took the car into the parking area of a cemetery to make Annabelle frown.

“We want to whose grave, Pa ?”

“You'll know who we are there.”

Annabelle complied and followed Papa Rano's steps into the cemetery gate after buying flowers sold nearby.

Not long before the two stood in front of the tombstone that read 2 names: Eddi Hutama and Lili Hutama.

“Opa Eddi ?” annabelle asked as she looked at Papa Rano who immediately nodded.

“Papa wants us to ask for your blessing before you get married to Alden. For Papa, Opa Eddi is the second parent who makes Papa able to stand here now, having a mama, you and Ray.”

The two sowed flowers and prayed for a moment in front of the tomb. Annabelle glanced at Papa Rano who looked sad looking at the photo attached to the tombstone.

Annabelle was moved. Although he has no memory of the figure of Opa Eddi who died when Annabelle was 3 years old, he believes that Opa Eddi is a kind man to give a deep impression to Papa.

“What Opa Eddi loves Papa for saving Daddy?” annabelle asked when the two got back in the car.

“Opa Eddi is a hard but kind father. Loving Papa like his own son is not just because Papa once saved Wira.

Opa Eddi said he was very grateful because the kidnapping problem made him meet with Papa and immediately raised Papa to be his son.

When you were born, Opa Eddi said that you were a woman who was born to be Alden's companion. At that time Papa and Mama just listened to him without daring to respond.

Over time, it turns out Wira and Lanny remember Opa Eddi's words and believe that you are Alden.”'s soul mate

“What is the reason that Papa and Mama were not angry when Alden was rude while in the hospital ?”

“Not because of that, Belle, but for us Alden it's been like a child himself. We tried to understand how Alden's condition at that time must be quite stressful with the preparation of marriage in addition to his duties as a leader who can not be abandoned.

Alden is a good and responsible boy. His tough attitude was more because he accepted all the consequences as the sole heir of the Hutama family.”

“Thank you that Papa and Mama never judged me for liking Alden.

After hearing this story I just found out that Papa and Mama never forced to realize Opa Eddi's words but did not forbid me to like Alden,” Annabelle said hugging Papa Rano from the side.

“Be a good wife to Alden because marriage is done not for the sake of halal or not halal, but unite two lives into one heart.”

“Iya, Pa. Thank you for Papa and Mama being good parents to me.”

“Mau lunch date with Papa ?” Papa Rano glanced at it while laughing.

“Kok felt like it was pounding right away because it was invited to a date by a man as cool as Papa,” said Annabelle while opening her eyes.

“Based on brats and liars !” Papa pinched Annabelle's cheek as the car stopped at a red light.

“Only Alden can make you hover and smile endlessly until your mouth is stiff.”

“Hais Papa, don't open your own child's disgrace, dong !” annabelle's lips immediately pursed making Papa laugh.

“Let's go on a date, darling,” ledek Papa Rano with a seducing voice.

Papa Rano brought the car back into the restaurant parking area. With a happy face, Annabelle embraced Papa Rano's arm

After their order came, Annabelle immediately took a photo with Papa Rano complete with their meal.

In his room Alden smiled when he got a photo and message from Annabelle.

ALDEN :

ANNABELLE :

ALDEN :

ALDEN :

Annabelle just laughed at reading it making Papa Rano shake her head.

****

Arriving at the house Annabelle knitted her eyebrows when she saw Yudha's car parked not far from the fence of her house.

“Don't tell me you want to ask me out,” ledk Annabelle when she saw Yudha waiting for her on the porch.

Yudha immediately embraced Annabelle when Papa Rano entered the house after rebuking Yudha.

“You why the hell ?” Annabelle frowned and tried to let go of Yudha's embrace.

“Alden will not know,” said Yudha while laughing without releasing his embrace.

“Keep why hug ?”

“Thank you for taking the time and talking to Mama.”

“I just have a regular chat and tell you that we are not dating because I have always loved Alden.”

Yudha let go of her embrace and cupped Annabelle's face with a happy smile.

“Your remarks about Lusia make Mama's heart soften a little. Tomorrow Mama will come to your wedding and do not mind meeting with Lucia and Yudis.”

“Truly ?” Annabelle rounded her eyes with a smile.

“Truly and Mama said it was all because Mama believed your words. Thank you.”

Yudha again hugged Annabelle making the girl roll her eyeballs.

“Thank you accepted but don't use hugs like this. Not good if someone reports to Alden or Lusia.”

“Nothing, would be a loving hug from sister on her sister.”

“Since when did you become my sister ?” annabelle's eyebrows.

“Since you convinced me to be honest about how I felt about Lucia. Good and adorable sister.”

Yudha ruffled Annabelle's hair and pinched the girl's cheeks.

Not long ago Annabelle's phone shook and looked Alden's name on the phone screen.

“Wear the loudspeaker, I want to talk to Yudha too !”

Alden's fierce voice instantly sounded when his call was connected. No previous pleasantries.

Annabelle immediately shook her head as she rolled her eyeballs, pressed down on the loudspeakers and circulated her gaze looking for Alden's men who must be watching her right now.

“Who loves you permission to hug my future wife !” alden's fierce voice immediately blared from Annabelle's cellphone loudspeaker.

“Thank you Alden only because your future wife who has been my sister helped me talk to my mom about Lusia.”

“Adik ? His younger brother ? As her future husband I cannot agree to your request to make Annabelle your younger sister meet !”

Yudha was uprooted, making Alden more emotional and bending his face in his room.

“Awas brave to hug again my future wife !”

“Malah just I want to kiss on the cheek,” ledek Yudha in between her laughter.

”Come in there Belle ! Don't let that little psychiatrist interfere with your rest.”

“Iya, I'm in in a minute,” said Annabelle while shaking her head.

“But Alden, why should you also put people to watch me ? You don't believe me, do you ? You don't believe that Papa, Mama and Ray can take care of me?”

“It's not so, darling, just in case. Kan you are still worried about Sarah,” Alden's voice softens even more like seduction.

“Neyebelin !” nagging Annabelle while disconnecting Alden's call.

“There you go home too !” annabelle's faint voice did not offend Yudha and still laughed softly.

“Iya I'm home. Until tomorrow beautiful sister.”

Annabelle dodged as Yudha's hand stretched out to shake her hair again.

“Do not until the bloody war again like the events of the fight over Sarah.”

Yudha chuckled and waved her hand as she walked towards the fence.

“Hopefully smooth everything tomorrow,” Yudha said before closing the gate and Annabelle nodded.

“Basic possessive guy ! Use send people to keep an eye on everything !” grumbled Annabelle while entering the house.
