Anya could see her old self in them. She imagined that she would also share festivities with Tara, Nadine and Jenny, enjoying their old age together.
Perhaps they would sit in the sa garden together drinking tea and chatting.
When they are old, their children will have their own lives.
If their husband betrays them one day, they will not be afraid because they have each other.
…
Jenny's birthday ca in the blink of an eye. A few days before her birthday, Bima had planned various things. He also phoned Rudi.
"Rudi, are you free today? Co ho to eat. We can also play chess. Jenny's birthday is at the end of the month. If you're not busy, you can help us to prepare."
Lately, Rudi has been in a daze because his parents keep urging him to get married.
Not only Bima, but his father, Triawan, also urged him.
Jenny has returned to Indonesia. Both his and Jenny's family felt that they suited each other so everyone urged Rudi to imdiately chase after Jenny this ti.
If there is no hope, his family intends to find another mate for him.
"I happen to be resting right now. I will co to eat," Rudi smiled and ended the call.
Maria ca out of her studio and saw Bima was in a good mood.
"Father, what makes you so happy?" Maria asked on purpose.
"Rudi is coming to eat. He said he wanted to accompany to play chess." Bima put aside all his annoyance over the past few days and ordered his servants to prepare various kinds of food.
Before lunch, Rudi arrived at the Atmajaya Family's house.
Bima has already arranged the chessboard and the pieces. As soon as Rudi ca, he didn't eat right away. Bima imdiately invited him to play 1 round first.
"Rudi, you haven't visited in a long ti. If you don't co, no one will want to play chess with this old man," Bima said sadly.
Maria and Jenny disliked chess so he was pretty much lonely.
Lately, Maria has been spending her ti in the studio creating new paintings. anwhile, Jenny is feeling annoyed with him and prefers to play with her cellphone in her room.
She was not allowed to go out so she finally pleaded that she could get her phone back.
"Grandpa, if I ca every day to play chess with you, you would be bored with ," said Rudi half-jokingly.
"How could I be bored? Co every day! Is it really hard for you to co here? How about you marry Jenny and beco my grandson-in-law?"' Rudi understood Bima's intention to call him and he smiled shyly. "I thought so too, but Jenny didn't want to. She doesn't like ."
Not knowing why, the image of Jenny leaning in Jonathan's arms appeared in Rudi's mind. They seem full of love and very sweet. It made him not want to talk about marriage right now.
"You guys are still young. Feelings can grow over ti," Bima smiled and patted Rudi's shoulder. "I support you!"
Rudi scratched his head with a smile. He did not say anything to Bima, but he gave a box to him. The box was made of wood, but it looked very luxurious. "I bought this chess a few days ago because I rember you like playing chess. I hope you like it."
Bima accepted it and opened it. "Very good. The workmanship is very neat, using the best wood and very finely polished. Is it okay if I accept it?"
Bima has no other hobbies. The only thing he likes is playing chess. It's clear that this gift ans a lot to him. The more he saw it, the more he liked it.
"call Jenny to co down. Tell her that Rudi is coming," Bima said to the maid with a big smile.
Jenny was very tired of being cooped up at ho. When she heard that Rudi was coming, she felt like a savior had co for her. She smiled mischievously and looked very happy.
"Jenny, your birthday is coming soon. I asked Rudi to co and help with the preparations. Grandpa is too old to take care of everything myself and there is no one to help . Your brother and sister are too busy and your uncle has no ti. So, I asked Rudi for help," Bima glanced at Jenny deliberately.
"Do you want Rudi to be your grandson-in-law?" Jenny asked in an ambiguous tone.
Bima was surprised for a mont when he saw his granddaughter suddenly beco obedient. Then he imdiately smiled. "Rudi is a good boy. If he could be my grandson, I would be very happy."
"I'll call Rudi often next ti," Jenny said calmly.
Her words were so shocking that not only Bima was surprised, but also Rudi. The man couldn't believe his ears.
"But I don't know if Rudi is willing or not..." Jenny turned her back to her grandfather while looking at Rudi.
At first, Rudi did not understand it. But as soon as he saw Jenny wink at him, he finally understood.
"I… I'll think about it," Rudi didn't want to be toyed.
His answer made Jenny feel a little annoyed. Couldn't he see that she's asking for his help?
She thought for a mont and then stepped forward and took Rudi's hand. "Grandpa, can I speak to Rudi alone?"
"Of course you can. Have a chat. Then we will have lunch together. The more often you guys are together, the more your feelings will grow," said Bima with a smile.
Bima did not think that everything would go smoothly. Perhaps Jenny could finally understand that he was doing all this for her own good and finally decided to follow her grandfather's decision.
Jenny pulled Rudi's hand into the garden. She poked her head out, looking around. When she saw that Bima was looking at them with a smile, she felt numb.
That gaze was so happy and full of love, it was depressing!
"What are you doing?" Rudi asked in a hoarse voice.
Jenny held his shoulder. "Don't move. Grandpa saw us."
Rudi realized that Jenny was too close to him. He could even hear her breath and see her blushing cheeks. The bead of sweat dripping from her forehead and the sunlight shining on the side of her face.... He could see it all.
When she blinked, her long eyelashes seed to be dancing.
He saw it all very clearly.
"Jenny..." Rudi looked at the woman in front of him blankly as he muttered her na in a soft voice.
Hearing the call, Jenny looked up and looked at him. She could see Rudi's gaze on her and imdiately let go of her grip. This ti, she stood tall on her own.
The atmosphere imdiately beca strange after that incident.
Jenny straightened her hair awkwardly as she tried to calm herself. "Rudi, we are good friends, right?"
