Chapter 4 - Support From Parents

Clara then entered the house.  A different day than usual.  Her feelings flowered a little, although she couldn't fully accept Smith in her heart, at least Clara had expressed her feelings.

Enter the house with a smiling face and just keep it up.  Even as Elen watched Clara without her noticing.

"Clar, why are you smiling to yourself?"  asked Ellen.

"Uh, Mom. No, I'm not smiling," said Clara.

"How could you lie to your mother, Clar? You were smiling as soon as you entered the house. Tell the truth!"  asked Ellen.

"Later, okay! I want to clean myself first," Clara then went into the room and left her mother.

Inside the room, Clara smiled again.  In front of the study mirror, Clara watched herself.  Will Smith be trusted?  Can Smith invite Clara to be better than before?  The question just popped up.

However, Clara also realized that she had just been at school and she would not accept that Ayla took Smith from her, even though Ayla was just joking.

Remembering that Smith can always take Clara's heart, especially when he comes to the house and his father immediately likes Smith.  That means that Smith is indeed a good person.

Clara convinced herself that Smith was the right person to fill her heart.  She then cleaned up and prepared for lunch.

It turned out that Elen was already waiting for Clara at the dining table.

"You in here, Mom," said Clara.

"Yes, I'm waiting for my daughter to say something that made her smile to herself," said Elen.

Clara just remembered saying that earlier, "Oh that."

"Yeah, why are you smiling when you come home from school? Does this have anything to do with Smith?"  asked Elen curiously.

"Actually yes, ma'am," said Clara briefly.

"Oh yeah? Say it!"  asked Ellen.

"So Smith and I were committed to being together in a special relationship. But I'm not too sure either," replied Clara.

"Why not sure?"  asked Ellen.

"Well, I don't know him yet, Mom. I don't fully trust him yet. But inside my heart, when I'm with him it feels calm. What do you think?"  replied Clara.

"Your father already likes Smith. It's rare for your father to immediately like a man who is close to you, right? That means that Smith is indeed a good child, Clar," said Elen.

"Is that so, ma'am?" asked Clara.

"Yes, then don't hesitate! Mom supports you in establishing a relationship with Smith. Maybe when he needs to be invited to just be with our family," said Elen.

Clara swallowed her saliva, she didn't think that Smith had also been able to win her parents' hearts.  "Did you say that?"

"Yes, seriously, Clar. The point is you have to continue your education! Mom and dad believe that Smith can guide you to continue to do your best in school or your next level of education," Elen gave advice.

Clara then thought for a moment, but her stomach couldn't seem to wait too long.

"Mom, I'm hungry, I want to eat first, okay?"  Clara complained.

"Yeah, just eat! Is Smith coming back tonight?"  asked Ellen.

"No, ma'am. Why are you here again?"  Clara replied as she took a bite of food.

"Well, to help you study. I saw yesterday that he could solve math problems that you think are difficult easily. If you marry him later, of course, your grandson will be as great as he is," said Elen.

"Mom!"  Clara shouted.

"Why?"

"I'm still in high school, I also haven't thought about getting married. How can you think of grandchildren?"  Clara grumbled.

Ellen chuckled.  "Well, that's okay, Clar. There's already a candidate," he said.

Clara still couldn't understand her mother's thoughts.  "It's up to you, I just want to eat," he said.

In the evening when Clara's father also came home, Clara was studying in her room.  Then Herman approached Clara into the room.

"Clar, how was your day today?"  Herman asked.

"That's cool. Why is that?"  replied Clara.

"I'm just curious, aren't you going to pick up Smith? Is there any news?"  Herman asked.

"What do you mean dad?"

"Honestly, since the first time I met Smith, my father liked Smith. He is a good and intelligent boy. He has a good attitude towards his parents. Clar, you can have a relationship with him. But you need to remember one thing, you continue to complete your education to the highest level.  what you dream of! Together with Smith, I believe you can become a better self," said Herman.

"Why can you be so sure? Even though you've only just met him," Clara asked and then looked at her father's face.

"There's faith in my heart, Clar. That's all," Herman answered simply.

"I still have my doubts about Smith. I still want to convince myself that Smith is someone who loves me. I also doubt that he can continue to be with me that long," said Clara.

"Okay. Please convince yourself first, Clar! One more thing, don't ever hurt her!"  Herman gave a warning.

Clara herself is confused as to why her parents, who are new to Smith, already like and agree that she is in a relationship.

Clara didn't care what Herman said.  She just continued to study.

"Ouch, why can't I focus on studying anyway?" Clara complained. She then got up and went to bed and lay down on the bed.

"Hmm, is Smith that good? I do like him. I'm not being a hypocrite, but I still wonder if he's really good for me?"  Clara thought.

Clara then closed her eyes and tried to sleep.  But it can.  On a whim, she opened the phone.  And no message from Smith.

"He said they were dating. But why didn't he text me?"  Clara grumbled.  She then put the phone back down and ignored Smith.

Not being able to sleep either, Clara then took mineral water from her study table.  Sip the water and feel the freshness.

Then she heard her cell phone ring.  Immediately she took out her cell phone and saw a call from Smith.  Clara picked up the phone.

"Hi, Clar. Are you done studying?"  asked Smith behind the cell phone.

"I do. I'm going to bed," said Clara a little nonchalantly.

"Oh, I thought you were waiting for a call from me, Clar," said Smith.

"Don't be so self-conscious,'' Clara pouted.

"I'm not confident, Honey. I just finished studying. I just want to make sure you learn how? Are there any difficulties? Maybe I can help. And don't be too proud to ask me!  school" said, Smith.
