MERRIED PAPA

chapter 01

Married papa 01

Tania Hendrina Arman, a girl who is now 20 years old. An adopted son of Arkana Habibi Arman, a wealthy businessman who operates in the textile and development sectors. Arkan raised Tania when the girl was 2 years old from an orphanage which he happened to pass by after attending a meeting with his business partner.

I don't know why Arkan's heart moved to adopt the tiny baby who was at the orphanage's lap at that time. The tiny baby was a little fussy, but because his hand was holding it, the beautiful baby immediately fell silent and hugged Arkan's neck very tightly. From what Arkana knows, the tiny baby is an orphan whose relatives don't want to accept the baby because they are too lazy to take care of it and also lack the economy. In essence, at that time, Tania's family gave many reasons to the orphanage. Not to mention Tania's family took her to an orphanage far from the city where they lived. The life lived by this tiny girl who has now grown up under Arkana's supervision is cruel. Akana really loves Tania like her own child.

At the age of 40, Arkana has not yet started a household. It was as if his life was complete with the presence of Tania in his life. It is not uncommon for Hernia and Nino to ask their son to get married immediately before they can no longer bear to see the presence of their grandson who was born from their son's own flesh and blood.

Even though they have a daughter, they also want Arkan's flesh and blood. Moreover, their daughter chose to live abroad with her husband rather than in the city where they live. The magnificent house makes their life feel quiet. The presence of a boy in the same city as them, in fact, does not make him happy, because Arkana chooses to live in his own house with Tania, his daughter.

"Papa still has a lot of work to do, right? Do you want Nia to make coffee or tea?" Tania approached Arkan who was sitting in his work chair at home.

"Can you just make Papa some coffee? Because Papa's eyes are starting to get heavy, and Papa still has a lot of work to do," Arkan glanced at his daughter briefly before returning to his work.

"Okay Dad, Nia will take you to the kitchen first," Tania left Arkana who was busy with her work again. Tania brewed hot water into a coffee cup that her father would drink. As usual, not too much sugar or coffee.

"Please, Dad," Tania put the coffee which was still emitting hot steam in front of Arkana.

"Thank you Nia," said Arkana while brewing the coffee little by little.

"You're welcome, Dad. You'll allow me tonight to sleep with Dad. It feels like it's been a long time since I slept with Dad. I miss the way it used to be, Dad," he said hopefully to his father.

Arkana looked at her daughter with firm eyes. Honestly, Arkana really wanted to refuse Tania's request. Because now the child is starting to grow up and can at any time awaken something in his growth. However, Arkana also couldn't refuse her daughter's wishes, especially seeing the hopeful twinkle in her eyes.

"Okay, wait a few more minutes for Papa, okay?" Arkana asked and Tania immediately nodded.

"Ahhhh, it's finally finished," Arkana stretched her arm muscles which felt numb from playing on the laptop keyboard in front of her for too long.

Arkana glanced at the princess who was now fast asleep on the sofa nearby. The princess's beautiful face made Arkana's sweet smile widen. His child is indeed very beautiful, that's why Arkan takes great care of her so that she doesn't fall into the valley of the wrong friendship.

Arkan carried the princess bridal style to her room, which had a distinctly male feel, namely gray and white. Arkan placed the princess's body on the bed carefully so that the child wouldn't wake up.

"Tania, you are really beautiful, son. I don't think Papa will be able to bear it if you leave Papa's life one day. Are you used to staying with Papa, son? Can we stay together until death do us part, son?" Arkan planted a kiss on the princess's forehead and a soft snore could be heard coming from there.

"You know, son, that we are not father and daughter, Tania. I'm sorry Papa put this feeling of love into you, son. Really Papa can't remove this feeling from you, Tania," Arkana looked into her daughter's beautiful face.

The daughter who became his soul mate so that until now he has not married because he fell in love with his own child. Nothing can make him fall in love other than his son. Next, Arkana immediately lay down next to Tania, who was still fast asleep. Hugging his daughter's slender body tightly like a husband hugging his beloved wife.

Tania woke up when she felt something heavy on her stomach. Tania's beautiful eyes slowly opened to adjust to the light in the room.

"Papa," Tania shook Arkana's still sleeping body with her pulse.

"Emmm," only a murmur came to Tania's ears without any reaction from Arkana.

"Daddy wake up, it's morning!" Again, Tania tried to wake her father who was not even bothered at all.

Arkan's strong hand, which Tania had let go of, was now curling beautifully around her stomach. In fact, it feels tighter now than before because Arkan hugged Tania's slender waist so tightly.

"Dad, it's heavy!!" Using her right hand, Tania pinched Arkan's waist a little hard.

"Strr, why are you pinching Papa, Tan? So your back hurts, right?" complained Arkana who immediately woke up when she felt pain in her waist.

"When Papa woke up, he didn't even wake up. Not to mention Papa's arms were hugging my waist tightly again, which was heavy," he said honestly, making Arkana flinch in embarrassment.

Even when he slept in the same bed with his child, he never woke up late like this. It could even be lost, he would wake up before Tania. So that his daughter wouldn't know that all night he was hugging her body.

"Is it true that Papa hugged you, Tania?" Arkana repeated to get rid of her embarrassment. Even if you look closely, Arkana's face looks red and even feels hot. Tania nodded to him.

"Yes, that's right, Dad," answered Tania. "I'm sorry Papa," he said with an apologetic expression.

"It's okay, Dad, besides, I'm sure Dad didn't hug me on purpose. Moreover, when I was little, Dad often hugged me when I was sleeping and maybe now Dad has gotten used to that," Tania showed a sweet smile looking at Arkana.

Arkana returned her daughter's smile. A smile that made his heart beat fast. "Well, I've showered on campus today, right?"

Tania nodded. "Yes, Dad. Yes, I've taken a shower first, Dad. Don't forget to get ready, Dad. I'm going to the office," Arkana just nodded in response to the princess's words.

Tania came out of Arkana's room and went to her room. Arkana watched the princess leave her room with a sad look. Blame him for falling in love with his own daughter? Blame him for placing these feelings on Tania? But is it possible that his daughter will also fall in love with him one day? Can all these dreams come true? Arkana took a deep breath. Get out of bed and go to the bathroom to clean himself.

"Study hard so that you will become a successful person, Tania. Don't ever disappoint Papa," Now the car that Arkana was driving had arrived at the gate of the girl's campus.

"Yes Papa, I promise I will never disappoint Papa. I promise that I will study seriously so that I can become Papa's proud child," answered Tania with a wide smile.

How could Tania disappoint her father just because of her? Her father is the king of her life. Someone who gives him sincere love and affection for himself. There will no longer be a father like Arkana if Tania wants to look for him even in remote corners of the world.

"Good, remember all the messages Papa often said to you, son," Arkana rubbed her daughter's head gently.

"Yes Dad, I will never forget." Tania took Arkana's hand and kissed it respectfully. This is what they usually do when Tania goes to college or when Arkana goes to the office.

"Later, Papa will pick you up when you get home, and don't forget to let Papa know first, OK, Tania? Remember, don't go out into the world if you don't have permission from Papa," said Arkana after planting a kiss on the princess's forehead.

"Yes Pa," After that, Tania immediately got out of Arkana's car towards the campus grounds. Arkana looked at the princess until she disappeared from her sight. Only after that did Arakan drive to the office where he worked.

("Assalamu'alaikum Ma'am, what's wrong?") Currently Arkana is sitting in her oversized chair while looking at cooperation files with other companies. With a flat object that he held between his ear and shoulder.

("After work, you can stop by the house, right? I want to talk to you about something important," said Helena, Arkana's mother on the other side.

("Can't you just do it tomorrow, ma'am? Today I have too much work, and besides, I also want to take Tania to campus later,") answered Arkana honestly.

("You can't Arkan, I want you to come to the house later. You can also bring Tania here or you can just tell the driver to pick her up at campus.")

Arkana took a deep breath. Honestly, Arkana is too lazy to come to her parents' house, if not to discuss the same thing, namely marriage. There would be no reason why the mother forced herself there if it weren't for that.

("You heard what Mother said, right Arkan?") There was another voice on the other side which was quite firm. ("Okay ma'am, I'll be there later,") answered Arkan. After that, he ended the call between himself and his mother. Arkan looked for the princess's contact on the green application he was currently opening.

\[Tania, today Papa can't pick you up at campus. Papa will go to Grandma's house after work and the office driver will pick you up\] Arkan sent a message to the princess which only ticked one. This means that the princess is not holding a cellphone. It's possible that her daughter is in class.

As Helena asked her son, now Arkana has arrived at her parents' yard. Arkana immediately entered the wide open door of the house.

"Assalamu'alaikum," Arkana greeted him after entering his parents' house.

"Wa'alaikumsalam," answered Helena and her husband, who were in the living room chatting lightly. Arkana shook hands with her parents respectfully. After that, Arkana sat on the single sofa in front of her parents.

"When are you going to get married, Arkan? You can see that Mom and Dad are getting older," said Helena, looking at her son, who looked relaxed at the question.

"It's true what your mother said, Arkan, we are getting old and death can come to us at any time, son. Moreover, you are no longer young now. Don't you want to have a child from your own seed?" Now Nino, the father spoke.

"Aren't there any other words that Mom and Dad would ask me?" Instead of answering her parents' questions, Arkana asked another question. Helena took a deep breath.

Helena was also surprised that her son was still not looking for a partner. Moreover, now his son is already 4 years old.

"Nothing. That's why you have to quickly give us a son-in-law and grandson, Arkan. You know your sister, Helia, won't come home if she's not with her husband Arkan. In fact, your sister has clearly settled in someone else's country." Helena said pitifully. He really wanted a grandchild to enliven his house.

"I already have Tania, Mother,"

"Tania is not your flesh and blood Arkan. She is just a child you adopted 18 years ago, remember that!! What are you waiting for Arkan, isn't Tania also not forbidding you from giving her a mother?" Helena looked at her son in disbelief.

Even though Tania is not his biological daughter. It's not that Helena doesn't love her adopted granddaughter, in fact Helena really loves Tania as much as her own biological granddaughter. Arkan took a deep breath.

"Sorry Mom, I love him. Don't force me to marry another woman." Arkan replied looking at his parents in turn.

"What?!" The husband and wife were surprised to hear their son's words.

"Don't make this up Arkan, this isn't really funny!" Helena snapped angrily.

"I'm not making this up, Mom, I really love Tania. I don't want another woman besides Tania,"

"Remember!!! Tania is your child, Arkan. The child you raised alone." Nino looked at his son in disbelief. How could his son fall in love with his own son? The child he cared for and looked after since childhood.

"I know Dad, but I also never thought that this heart would be attached to my adopted child. Who could have his heart attached to whom?" Arkana looked at Helena and Nino alternately. If only Arkana could choose, he wouldn't want this to happen either. He also doesn't want to fall in love with his own daughter. The daughter he cared for and loved with all his heart.

"Lose that feeling of love and look for a woman who is not too far from you, Arkan." Helena said softly.

Arkan shook his head. "I can't, Mom, no matter how many times Mom and Dad tell me to look for another woman, if I only have Tania in my heart, it won't work. Even before Mom asked, I did it first, but what? The result was nothing, Mom, I still love

"Tania, the only thing on my mind is Tania. No one can replace Tania in my heart," Arkan answered weakly.

"Marry Tania. If you can't give us another woman to be our daughter-in-law, then marry Tania," asked Helena reluctantly.

If he were to be honest, he didn't want Arkan to marry Tania because Helena already considered Tania like her own granddaughter. But what could Helena do if her son fell in love with his own adopted daughter?

"Give me time Mom, Dad to tell Tania this, I don't want Tania to think differently about me in the future. And also I won't be able to force Tania to marry me if Tania loves another man. But I ask for Dad's prayers and Mother for that"

"We will definitely wish you the best, Arkan. Even though Dad finds it hard if you marry Tania, it's not that Dad hates her, but Dad already considers Tania like Dad's own granddaughter. But if that's what makes you give me someone to look forward to and grandchildren in the future.

"We can only obey. Hopefully things will go smoothly," said Nino looking at his son.

"Thank you, Father, Mother," Arkana's smile grew wider when she heard Helena and Nino's words.

Arkana really didn't expect that her parents would give permission for her to be with Tania, her adopted daughter. Nino and Helena could only smile seeing their son happy. Besides, it's no use looking for another woman for their child if his heart is only for Tania.

Meanwhile, in another place, Tania and her two friends Bella and Mesi were sitting in the campus canteen. They enjoyed a bowl of meatballs and also iced tea which had been neatly vanished in front of them.

"Let's get together with the others this weekend, Tan?" invite Mesi.

"I'll ask Papa first, Mes, I can't say for sure now. You know how Papa is, me." Tania answered uncomfortably.

The two friends had often invited Tania to get together, however, they often received rejection from Arkana. For the same reason, he doesn't want to fall into promiscuity. Moreover, there are also male friends there who could even do bad things to him.

"I've noticed that your father is too strict with you, Tan, you're not allowed to gather together," said Bella.

"Well, it can't be helped Bell, I don't dare to fight Papa anyway. I only have Papa, Bell, even though I have Grandma and Grandpa, the only one who has looked after me all this time is Papa. Only Papa has poured out all his love for me, Bell." Tania answered sadly. Remember again how Arkana struggled to make her happy. How Arkana loved him with all his heart.

"That's true, Tan, but it's strange how you're not allowed to do things even when you go out with us. Besides, you're an adult, Tan, the times when we spend time with friends instead of being cooped up at home like birds,"

"I'm sure whatever Papa does is for my good, Bell." Tania showed a sweet smile. Whatever the two friends said would not affect Tania. And this is what Arkana taught him, not to carry too much feelings whatever people say. As long as it's not for his own good.

"It's up to you, Tan, it's hard to talk to you. But I hope this time your father will allow you to come together with us,"

"Hopefully Bell,"
