Amelia stepped into her room-in-law with Aska who was not going to sleep.
Gts .... Gts .... Tok
"Well, can Amel come in!" amelia asked for permission.
"Come, Honey. The door is not locked" Celine replied from the inside.
"May?" amelia's head poked in the doorway.
"Come here!" carrying Aska, Amelia approached her in-laws' bed. "Hey, Oma's granddaughter," said Celine, taking Aska from Amelia's sling."Uh, looks like Oma's granddaughter,"
"What's up, honey? Is there anything you want to talk to Mama about?" celine asked Amelia.
"Ehm, actually there is, Ma. But, this is Alina and Bram's problem" Amelia replied. Celine knitted her brows.
"Alina and Bram? What's wrong with them?" celine asked confusedly. Amelia told Mama Celine everything without exception. Mama Celine who listened to Amelia's story was just a beard.
"Actually Mama was suspicious, but, Mama just wanted to hear honesty straight from their mouths" Mama explained.
"Yes, Ma" replied Amelia.
"Yes, I've, honey, thank you very much for the information. Later let Mama take care of them, you just calm down," said Mama Celine smiled meaningfully.
"OK, Mam,"
That day, Mama Celine told her children to gather in the living room. Bram who was preparing his belongings to be brought tomorrow, he put it down for a while, to fulfill the call of the Mama. Bram came down the stairs after the stairs, in the living room there were Mama, Thomas and Amelia.
"Sit down!" tell Mama. Bram joined them.
"What's up, Ma? Tumben Mama gathered us?" ask Thomas. "Will Mama hand out the inheritance?" ask Thomas.
"Ck, you think Mama's dead, Thom? It's as if you're talking!" cebik the Mama. Amelia elbowed her husband's stomach.
"Aw, sick, darling," cried Thomas grimacing in pain.
"Eat him, just shut up! Just listen to what Mama will say," said Amelia scowled annoyedly.
"He .... He ... Hey, Yeah, baby!"
"Bram, Mama decided to betroth you to a woman," said Celine firmly, making Bram jump in shock. Thomas was surprised too.
"Why, Mah????" wonder Bram.
"Well, Mama thinks you're ripe for a household. Look at your brother, even he has been married twice. You've never been one, Bram!" say Mama.
"But, Mah, Bram still wants to be single. Bram isn't ready to get married yet" Bram replied.
"Ck, what are you waiting for? Your joke is rusty, Bram. What are you waiting for?" cecar Mama's.
"Huh, Karatan?"
"Hc .... Ha .... Ha." Thomas' laugh suddenly boomed in the room. Amelia laughed too.
"Mama is the best" Thomas whispered to Amelia.
"Ish, don't do it, Mas" said Amelia.
"What are you waiting for, Bram?" ask Mama. "Waiting for your mother to die!" sad Mom.
"Well, how do you say that!" Bram looked at his mother's face. Bram approached Celine, and rubbed the middle-aged woman's hand. A woman who was already very good took care of him and treated him like his biological son.
"Whatever Mama says, Bram will surely obey" he said. "But, Ma, tomorrow Bram will return to Germany. Bram already booked a plane ticket to Germany,"
"Alright, Ma. Bram is willing to marry the woman of Mama's choice" Bram replied.
"really?" happy Celine. "What do you want to do, Mama?"
"He'em," answered a nod by Bram.
"You sure? Are you ready to marry by your choice?" ask Celine again.
"Well, don't force Bram to marry by Mama's choice" said Thomas.
"Ish, shut up!" hardik Mama Celine to Thomas.
"Mas, you better shut up. Mama must have chosen the best mate for Bram" whispered Amelia.
"But, Honey ....!"
"Just shut up! Don't be noisy!" amelia cut off her husband's conversation.
"Ish, you're so mean, honey,"
"The love of Bram and Alina, they finally can't be together. Mama's gonna match Bram to Mama's chosen woman, "inner Thomas.
"Alright if you agree to this matchmaking, soon the woman you will be betrothed to will come" said Mama.
Bram feels very guilty about Alina and also his own feelings. He doesn't know what he's gonna do. She loved a woman she thought was her own mother. Of course his orders were a command to him.
A few minutes later, Alina arrived after getting a message from her mother. He was too afraid that his mother was okay. With quick steps, he entered his home. It turned out that everyone was gathered in the living room.
"Mama?" call him. "What's going on, Ma?"
"Well, what's wrong, honey. Mama deliberately told you to come here because she wanted to ask for your opinion," replied Mama.
"Approve?" confused Alina. "What opinion, Ma?"
"Bram's age is very mature for a household. The plan, Mama wants to match him with Mama's choice," Celine told her daughter.
"What?" Alina was surprised.
"Bram has agreed with Mama's decision, in your opinion, How?" ask Mama. Alina was unable to answer her mother's question, her eyes only turning towards Bram. Bram just looked down, he could not afford to look at the face of the woman he loved so much.
"Cock you shut up, honey?" ask Mama again. I don't feel her tears just dripping. Alina wiped away her tears, afraid that she would know.
"Alina is up to Bang Bram, Ma. After all, that's living him," he said. Thomas could feel his sister's sadness.
"Alright, everyone agrees that Mama will marry Bram to the woman of Mama's choice. You agree, right, Thom?" ask Thomas as his first child.
"Thomas it's up to Bram. If Bram agrees, then Thomas also strongly agrees," replied Thomas was confused to see his sister looking at him sadly.
"Have you decided that Bram will soon mate with the woman of Mama's choice" Celine said.
"Where's the woman you're going to marry Bram? Is he the son of a friend of Mama's? Or did Mama look for him at the dating bureau?" ask Thomas to his mother.
"Ish, you are! Don't be so careless! You think Mama's going to match Bram to a woman taken from the matchmaking bureau!" cebik the Mama. "Of course she's a beautiful, classy, nice lady. And you must like it Bram," said Mama.
"When can Bram see him, Mah?" ask Bram.
"Just calm down, honey. The woman is already here" replied his mother. After Bram, Alina and Thomas turned to the right and to the left, looking for the whereabouts of the woman that mama meant. But the three of them did not find it. Obviously they were very confused by what mom Celine said. While Amelia just sat quietly, because before she had known the plan of Mama Celine. Amelia only chuckled at the reaction of the three, especially looking at the reaction of Bram and Alina.
