Chapter 844 - Friend (1/2)

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 same 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 came 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? Come home 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 immediately chase after Jenny this time.

If there is no hope, his family intends to find another mate for him.

”I happen to be resting right now. I will come to eat,” Rudi smiled and ended the call.

Maria came 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 me 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 came, he didn't eat right away. Bima immediately invited him to play 1 round first.

”Rudi, you haven't visited me in a long time. If you don't come, 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 time in the studio creating new paintings. Meanwhile, 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 came every day to play chess with you, you would be bored with me,” said Rudi half-jokingly.

”How could I be bored? Come every day! Is it really hard for you to come here? How about you marry Jenny and become 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 me.”

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 time,” 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 remember 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?”
