POV SEBASTIAN

"Why does it have to go that far? We're just acting ..."El's voice across there sounded a little annoyed. It makes me feel bad to be accused of constant theatrics.

"Charade? So, you don't think everything that happened yesterday was sincere? Oh my god, you keep accusing me of cheating."I replied while taking a deep breath, "let's meet again tomorrow, after your lecture hours are over, you must come to the place I will choose. I'm going to prove that I'm not just playing games with you."This time I spoke so confidently. I no longer want to be accused by El, if everything I do is just a farce. Has he never liked anyone? How come you can't tell which feelings are real and fake

Almost half frustrated, I was confused, I really had to try to be able to take El's heart, make him believe that his decision to accept my proposal was not wrong. For a while, I didn't calm down, thinking about how he could make sure that I was a responsible man who would accept all his advantages and disadvantages.
Again and again, an idea came to my mind. Impatience to carry out the plan soon approached me.

"What? Say it again? I'm afraid I heard it wrong."Amelie looked at me half-incredulously, my little sister actually looked incredibly shocked.
"Don't get me wrong, Mel, I'm serious."
"You're serious, but what do you want? This is so sudden! Ask your mom first, who knows if I can give you good advice."Amelie advised me.
"You are suddenly very wise, can also be serious if you give advice ... come on, let me tell my mom."
"What the ... why am I so bothered ah," although half-nagging, Amelie still accompanied me to see Mom.
We both walked towards the garden next to the house, where mom used to spend her afternoons gardening. From a distance, I could see the figure of the mother who was crouching while seriously arranging her beloved flowers.
"Mom ..."I tried to call him slow. Mom did not turn her head, maybe my voice was not heard, I tried to return to call her, "mom ... I need to talk to you for a minute, okay?"
This time, mom immediately turned her head and looked at me. "What do you want to talk about?"
"About El ..."I said a little hesitantly, worried that it would make you less pleasant to discuss the matter about El.
Unexpectedly, the mother even looked so enthusiastic. "What's wrong with your mother-in-law, Sebastian?"mother's answer, stunned me. "Do you really think Elsie is going to be a good mother?"I asked, while my mother can be invited to communicate well.
"Yes ... I wish El could be your wife ..."
Amelie who was standing next to me immediately auto elbowed my hand. It reminds me of my search for my mother.
"It seems that Mom's wishes and hopes can be fulfilled soon," I smiled in a knot.
"Meaning?"Mom looked at me with confused eyes.
"I'm going to marry El!"I said with mantab. Suddenly mom's eyeballs rounded while one hand covered her mouth, shocked. "Well, you're right when you talk ...."
"Mrs. Berneran, I think she also asked my opinion. That's why I asked my mom directly."Amelie, who had been silent, finally couldn't bear to not talk. Mom glanced at Amelie briefly, then refocused her eyes on me.
"Sebastian ... are you sure about your decision? Don't marry someone's child without trust. Marriage is not for a moment .... do not let your children be disappointed in the future," there is bitterness in the tone of the mother's voice when giving me advice.
"I'm already very confident about marrying El, Mom don't worry ..."I took my mother's hand and held her, towards the garden chair that was near the fish pond. Amelie who was trailing behind suddenly sounded with sewot. "Yes obviously worried! In the beginning, you didn't want to get caught up in the hype!"Amelie sounded very upset.
"Yes Yes ... I admit, I did reject Raveline at first, but I had my reasons."
"Halah! Not because you are rejected by the woman you like, so you are forced to want me to mate with El ..."
"Amelie! Please listen to your brother first."Mom's sudden glaring at Amelie made her suddenly speechless. From the look on his face, he was still half angry.
I sighed, trying to cool the atmosphere that suddenly became tense, " Mel ... you may be right, at first I agreed to accept El on your advice, because it was rejected by the woman I had been chasing for a long time. And, to be honest, Mel, after a few times I met and talked to El, I was convinced that Actually Me and El were compatible."
Amelie giggled,"I told you so! El, it's really good and really sincere, very rarely there are girls who don't have much style like him. Yes, ma'am."
Mom smiled, "Yes ... if indeed, you are sure you want to marry El, you should just ask the person directly."
"No need ... she agreed, because she said she wanted to ask for proof that I was serious about our relationship."
"So what do you want Ta?"
"I will prepare a modest wedding in advance, so that our relationship will be legal as soon as possible. As proof that I'm serious about marrying her. You know, El doesn't have any parents, so I don't have to ask his parents. Later, after we are officially married, I will immediately take care of the official documents for our marriage."
"Oh, my god ... does it have to be soon?"Mom looked at me with an incredulous look.
"There are additional conditions ..."
"What additional conditions?"Mom looked at me in confusion, again.
"You have to have surgery right away..."I squeezed my mother's fingers. "Sebastian wants to obey mom's desire to get married soon, that's why ... I have the same problem, I need to have surgery right away."
"You ... marry El, not out of necessity, right ? Just because you want to ask mom to be operated on immediately."
I shrugged, "no, mom. I'm really serious about El, so I've thought about everything carefully and confidently."
"When are you going to marry El?"
"Tomorrow afternoon ...."
My mother's eyeballs were perfectly round again,"Oh my god, it's noon tomorrow! Not wrong? It's not that sudden ..."
"I want Amelie to help me. How?"I looked at my mother and sister changing, waiting for approval from both of them.
"I don't want to help you ..."Amelie replied with an excited face. While mom looks a little hesitant, "what do you want to ask for help?"
I put a smile of encouragement on my face, as the two most important people in my life agreed to help me bring El into the family.
