Wedding
The wedding day arrived, and Franz married Hana even though they were not in love, but by promise. They were legally married inside the church, and had the ceremony outside the church. Despite this, Franz's demeanor was very sweet in front of the attendees at his wedding to Hana. Suddenly, Ronald arrived with his new wife and child.
"Congratulations, you finally found a man who can love you, Hana," said Ronald as he shook hands with Hana and Franz.
"That's great, after being released by the CEO, you get a Sports Superstar," quipped Jennifer, who had become Ronald's wife.
"Oh... isn't this Franz Miaco? The one who was rumored to be getting married to Karina? Why the switch, bro?" Ronald patted Franz on the shoulder who was looking at him strangely.
"That's none of your business, and now..." Franz paused his sentence and put his arm around his wife's shoulders. Of course that made Hana wince in slight surprise and look at Franz who was now officially her husband.
"Hana is now my wife, you must be her ex-husband right? I will make her happy which she never got when she was with you." Franz replied.
DEG!
Not only Ronald and his wife, Hana was also surprised by what Franz said.
'He dared to defend me in front of Ronald? I didn't hear wrong, did I?" Hana thought. Her eyes lit up knowing that Franz wasn't as bad as she thought. Who would leave her for Karina. But apparently not, slowly Hana's smile was etched on her face and the head that had only bowed when meeting her ex-husband, now straightened her head and body dared to fight Ronald and his wife. Ronald suddenly laughed mockingly.
"Hahahaha, enjoy it, bro. You'll never get the joy of being married to a woman who can't give you offspring," Ronald said. Instantly Franz raised one eyebrow with a smirk.
"Really? Okay, thanks for your warning, please enjoy the food at our wedding." Franz coded with his hand to immediately send Fonald out of his presence by sending the two couples away. They left with very upset faces.
"Damn! He has no regrets about being married to Hana," Jennifer was upset.
"Let it go, honey. He'll regret it someday. We'll see," Ronald replied.
"Yeah, I'll make Hana's life more miserable than ever." Jennifer said, and Ronald just smiled slyly.

The wedding was over, Franz's mother Kelly still couldn't understand Franz's sudden attitude. Marrying with minimal preparation but being able to hold a grand wedding event.
"Franz, why are you marrying another woman? I thought you were going to marry Karina who is clearly still a girl. Instead you're marrying CEO Ronald's widow for all you know!" Franz turned to face his mother.
"I know, Mom. It was my mistake, so I have to make up for it."
"What mistake do you mean, Franz? You married a widow with a child!"
"And that child is my son, Mother! My own biological son. It was my fault for getting drunk that night and accidentally fucking her. I just didn't want to be an irresponsible man for what I had done. Maybe I was wrong too for hurting Karina's heart by promising her a dream wedding. But no matter, I've dealt with it and talked to her nicely,"
"Then what about the media? What will you tell them, Franz? Your image as a famous basketball player will be ruined like this," warned his mother.
"That will never happen, mom. You just relax, I've got it all under control." Franz left his mother who was still unhappy and yelling at him.
"FRANZ! MOM'S NOT DONE TALKING YET!" Looking the other way while holding her dizzy head, Mrs. Kelly neutralized her breathing.
"Hah... I don't know what's going through that kid's mind. You see, I will never accept a son-in-law like him! I'll make him feel uncomfortable in this big house! Franz already dared to go against me just for that bitch!"

In the white room, Franz and Hana were lying on the same bed. Somehow this time the atmosphere was different from before when they did it on that hot night. Now they were just on their backs and staring at the ceiling of the room without anyone starting a conversation. Hana, who was not comfortable with this awkward atmosphere, started the conversation by turning her head to the right, where Franz was lying now.
"Franz, thank you for keeping your promise by marrying me and you also defended me in front of my ex-husband," Hana just wanted to express her gratitude to Franz for helping her get this far. Franz turned his head and faced Hana.
"That's the duty of a husband, isn't it?" Flashing his smile, Franz made Hana's heart melt instantly. And that stern face reminded her of when they did that by accident.
"Yes, but what about Karina?"
"Karina..."
Flashback
Franz chases Karina out of the cafe and grabs her right hand. Franz convinces Karina to give up their relationship for Hana.
"I'm sorry, Karina... I..."
"Why, Franz? Why did you choose that girl? Haven't we been together for a very long time? I'm the one who always provided for you when you had basketball games. I was the one who accompanied you all the way to the basketball competitions and Olympics. Even the media knew that I was your lover and future wife. But why did you cheat on me, Franz? Why?" Sobs began to emerge from Karina's lips. The more tears she released, the more they rolled down her cheeks.
"It's all my fault, I'm sorry that I was so drunk that night. I thought it was you who came, so I opened the door to the hotel room. I didn't open my phone at all and didn't know that there was a message from you. We're both at fault for being negligent, Karina. I'm sorry..."
"Don't you love me anymore, Franz? You've also been avoiding me lately. Why, Franz? Why did you do that to me? You're so unfair, Franz!"
"Yes, I'm not fair. I've been avoiding you because..." before continuing her sentence Karina interrupted her.
"Because of the baby, right? Because you cared about Hana's baby, right, Franz?" Franz nodded reluctantly.
"If we get married, we can have our own baby, Franz. But why did you choose that baby?"
"I just wanted to be a responsible father, Karina. I'm sorry, I'm sorry again. I hope you can understand my situation now. As for love, honestly I still love you, but I'll try to let go of you and try to love Hana. I want to be a father to that child, Karina."
"No, Franz. Please, don't leave me. Don't take away that love, Franz." Karina pleaded by putting her hands together. But Franz turned around and walked away from Karina.
Flashback END
"I'm sorry, Franz. Because of me, your relationship is ruined," Hana was now crying because she felt guilty about Franz and Karina's relationship. Franz immediately wiped away Hana's tears and hugged the body of the woman who had officially become his wife.
"Don't cry, everything is not your fault. I will try to love you for the sake of our child." Hana returned Franz's hug.
While they were enjoying a romantic moment, there was one person who peeked out from the front door of their room which was open slightly with both hands clenched.
"Just watch, I'm going to ruin your relationship!" Then the person left by himself.
