Chereads / so lucky you came / Chapter 20 - Chapter 20

Chapter 20 - Chapter 20

Veera is back from a trip to France. With Khan's approval this time, Veera officially withdrew from the industry without any problems. Veera did everything to not have to worry or endanger loved ones in the future. In the process of working with Khan, Veera herself also built and created her own business. An inheritance that is not so magnificent as Khan's but also not trivial, enough for everyone to live together is not much different from when Veeera was a famous Mafia. So it was not too difficult when Veera decided to give up being a Mafia. That also helps Veera have more easy time for Kasem.

Returning home, besides her own work, Veera continued to rearrange the housework so that everyone could rest, no longer having to be busy in the morning and evening. Everything in the house has always been taken care of by Aunt Nahm, but now Veera wants her to rest more because her age is also advanced.

-Veera: Aunt Nahm, I've been working here for a long time, now I can rest more. At aunt's age, everyone is taken care of by their children and grandchildren.

-Aunt Nahm: Uncle Veera, you can still do it, let me do it. The family is now only Atid, but the boy also came here and was helped by him. (Aunt Nahm said worriedly because she thought she had to leave work)

-Veera: Don't think too much. It's not that I want her to quit her job, it's just that she rests more. She's been working so hard lately. My work is not as busy as before, so my aunt doesn't have to do much.

-Aunt Nahm: Oh, it's okay, Mr. Veera. These jobs are actually very easy for you. Taking care of everyone, for you and Kasem is my joy.

-Veera: If that's the case, please tell me. Atid has also been up here for a while with his aunt, let's take him out to play. The boy suffered a lot. My aunt is like a family member, so don't feel like you have to do something to repay the debt. It's all I volunteered to help, I don't want Atid because of a father like that to give up his bright future. Please understand for what I want to do.

-Aunt Nahm: Yes, thank you, Mr. Veera. Uncle also considers you as a family, so he really wants to do these jobs.

-Veera: Okay then. It's late, auntie, go rest.

Although Veera wants her to rest, she wants to take care of it because she considers Veera like a family member who needs to be taken care of and helped. Even though Veera is cold, quiet and doesn't come home often, Aunt Nahm knows Veera is always on the lookout for everything. Inside Veera is always someone who understands and loves people more than others can see.

Veera also made arrangements for his juniors. Veera let them choose to work in what Veera continues to do business with. They all followed Veera from the very first day, so as long as Veera assigns them the most, they obey and do their best. Everyone has their own strengths, so they choose the position they do best. Besides, they still do other jobs when assigned.

Just like that, their lives began anew. A life without gunfire, no more punches or dangers like before, it may be so calm that they are not used to it, but before and after getting used to it, their life will be long. Although life still has many unpredictable things, life also gives them more precious things, but for them, the people around in Veera's small house are everything.

After everything Kasem changed and brought a lot of joy and happiness in that house, they decided to also do a surprise for Kasem himself.

-Karawek: Boss, Mr. Kasem has done many things for us, so we ask for permission to organize a party for him.

-Thany: Although, I proposed to him at the beach, but do you want the next party to be like a wedding party?

-Veera: Wedding party?

-Thany: Although the law has not yet accepted it, I don't want him to suffer like that. A party with only family members in the house, everyone will testify to the love of the two brothers. Is that Okay?

-Veera: I mentioned it to Kasem but she didn't want to.

-Lop: Boss, he doesn't want to because he doesn't want to bother you. In the past, your boss's job was as busy as he knew it, but now he has more time. As long as the boss nodded, everyone volunteered to do it for him. As time changed, his desires changed as well.

-Tan: Kasem was hurt so his defenses were quite hard and covered him. But now that you've broken it, tell him everything he's worried about is over.

-Veera: Did you decide to come back to work for me? New won't say anything?

-Tan: If it was my previous job, I would probably refuse but now it's just a normal business so I'm ready. She didn't agree at first either, but I convinced her because I know what kind of person the boss is. I hope you understand what I mean.

-Veera: Okay, everyone follow what's up.

-Thany: However, the wedding ring will be designed by me. Be the first to use my work.

-Veera: Did you use me as a lab rat?

-Thany: It's such an honor.

It all seemed like a joke. Perhaps no one expected a person like Veera to also be willing to make others laugh, different from what others see and judge about Veera.

When everything was carefully and meticulously planned to surprise Kasem. On that day, Veera took Kasem out in the morning so that everyone had time to prepare and redecorate the house in time for the party.

-Kasem: Veera where are we going this morning, but why only us?

-Veera: Since when do I have thousands of questions about why? What do you think I will do to you?

Kasem: I didn't mean that, I was just curious. Or what he really meant to do, that's why he said that.

-Veera: It's just that I was too busy to leave you alone at home before, so now I want to take you out. I want to go to the temple to do some work and pray to start a new life.

- Kasem: That's fine.

Once there, Kasem and Veera went to Wat Arun.

-Kasem: Do you believe that when two lovers go to the temple together to pray, they will be happy together in this life and will find each other in the next life.

-Veera: You believe in those things? So you still want to see me in the next life?

-Kasem: If so, do you agree?

-Veera: Are you happy being with me?

-Kasem: If I'm not happy, I absolutely won't hold your hand like now. Although there are times when I feel down and don't want to see you, after all, everything you do is for me.

-Veera: If you understand and feel happy, I really will find you in every life.

-Kasem: Let's go, let's go inside to celebrate.

Veera and Kasem went inside to celebrate, prayed together, released animals together… After completing the rituals, Veera and Kasem went to visit the temple.

-Kasem: The sunrise at this temple is very beautiful, unfortunately we can't wait until that time today.

-Veera: Then if you like, we'll stay until night for you to watch.

-Kasem: Will you be able to stay the whole day? Next time I go, I also want to see that scene with my parents. They also like to go to the temple to do meritorious deeds.

-Veera: Then make arrangements, we will take them away when they have time. Do you often go to the temple with your parents?

-Kasem: Not very often, but with them, I learn many things and pray for my parents to always be healthy.

-Veera: Are you hungry, I'll take you out to eat.

-Kasem: A little bit, then let's go.

Veera wrapped her arms behind Kasem's waist. Perhaps because it was the weekend, the temple became more crowded. People come here to pray for peace, convenience in work and all good things for their loved ones. As always, Veera always let Kasem choose the food that Kasem himself likes. Kasem wants Veera to also order what he likes, but instead of ordering what he likes, Veera always orders what Kasem likes with the joke "So you have the same taste as me".

While Veera took Kasem out as an official date, everyone at home was busy decorating the house. They work together even though they are tired but still feel happy and laugh together.

-Thany: Aunt Nahm, is there anything missing in the kitchen that you need to buy?

-Aunt Nahm: Everyone has bought enough, ma'am.

-Thany: Lop, Kit, have you finished decorating the flower gate outside?

-Lop: Mistress, you can count on us.

-Thany: Then let's rest, eat, then I and Lya, Sam and Diny will go get the wedding ring and wedding flowers. Everyone else helps me clean up, if there's something missing, let me know.

-New: Thany, can you buy me film for the camera? The old scroll only had a little bit left so he thought it wasn't enough.

-Thany: Okay, but I can send you the data.

The discussion seems to have never stopped since the surprise organization plan for Kasem was carried out. Just thinking about how Kasem will be when he sees the party, everyone is excited, standing still.

After having lunch, Kasem offered to go home because he didn't know what to do in the afternoon either.

-Kasem: Will we go home after that?

-Veera: Do you have something urgent to do at home?

-Kasem: No, but I really don't know where to go.

-Veera: Do you want to go to the cafe, but you can still go? Where those cats are.

Kasem: How do you know that? I haven't been there in a long time, I miss them too. So let's go! Come on, hurry up.

Kasem and Veera stopped by Kasem's familiar cafe. As soon as he entered the door, although Kasem hadn't been to the shop for a long time, the staff recognized him.

- Staff: Mr. Kasem has not visited the shop for a long time, the cats have also started to miss him.

-Kasem: I've been so busy lately that I haven't been able to stop by, this time I forgot to prepare food. Let me bring it next time.

-Staff: It's okay, you can go to the table to order so we can serve you.

Veera always chooses a cup of black coffee out of habit, while Kasem is a capuchino. Veera's figure was silent, his gaze looking out the window was enough to captivate not only Kasem. Really, Kasem just wanted to hide Veera from anyone. Looking around the shop, Kasme saw the appearance of a very funny decorated board, above it with pieces of paper, below there were pen and paper to write on. Kasem waved his hand as if calling for May.

-Kasem: May, what are those pieces of paper over there?

-May: Oh… This is a small collection of high school boys with the topic of defining love. Writers can write down their definition of love or write their own story and then hang it on the board or fold it and put it in the glass box next to it if you want to keep it a secret. People could only read the sheets that were attached to the board, and the sheets in the box were only used by those boys as documents to harvest and keep secret. There is also a vote for him with a good story and definition, every week the boys will come back to count and send gifts to the most favorite writer.

-Kasem: That's so new and so cute. There's a lot of people involved.

-May: You should also join in. Maybe you will find the definition of your love and find your other half.

-Kasem: I found it. Thank you May.

May seemed to understand Kasem's words as Kasem's gaze turned to the person sitting across from him. Veera also only smiled slightly at the words of the employee and Kasem's actions. Kasem involuntarily got up and walked over to the blackboard, read the pieces of paper and then took a pen and paper for him and Veera to write together. Strangely, after writing they both put them in a glass jar and left the shop hand in hand.

-Kasem: Why did you stop the car here today, it's still a long way to the house.

-Veera: I want to walk with you a little longer, if your legs are tired, I can carry you.

-Kasem: Not that far away! (Kasem asks in doubt)

But right after that sentence, not only did Kasem not hear Veera's reply, but even Veera's figure was nowhere to be seen.

-Kasem: Veera, where are you going. Don't make fun of me like that (Kasem said in a scared voice)

Suddenly, a black stripe covered Kasem's eyes, blocking his view, making Kasem unable to move. That person held Kasem's hand tightly, threatening Kasem not to speak up and only do what he said. In his heart Kasem was both scared and silently scolded Veera, "Where did you go to disappear to let me fall into such a situation. Do you still have unsolved enemies?"

I don't know how long it's been, but Kasem heard a very melodious music, and his arm slowly loosened. After that, the blindfold was also opened, because it was new from the dark, so Kasem's eyes could not see clearly what was in front of him, and quickly narrowed his eyes. Gradually his eyes got used to the light, Kasem was surprised with the scene in front of him that appeared like a dream that Kasem never thought of.

-Kasem: Veera, what game are you playing? What is this? (Kasem said as if he wanted to cry)

Kasem's father: Normally, a father takes his daughter to the ceremony to give it to the groom. It's a pity that I only have one son, but I'm ready to take him to my own aisle today.

-Kasem: What are you doing? Father…!

- Kasem's father: Let's go.

While Kasem's father took his son to give it to Veera, people on both sides threw flowers and clapped their hands to congratulate. Indeed, Kasem never imagined that he would enter the aisle like that, even Kasem did not dare to think of it. After giving his son to Veera, Kasem's father returned to his post.

-Kasem: Do you know that I was very worried, afraid of what would happen to you. Never disappear this way again.

-Veera: They have a plan, I can't ruin everyone's preparations.

-Ken: Hem… Are you two ready to start the wedding ceremony?

-Veera, Kasem: Ready!

-Ken: Are the distinguished guests below ready?

- Everyone cheered in unison: Ready!

-Ken: Mr. Veera, are you willing to agree to marry Kasem as your life partner, promising to remain faithful to Kasem, in prosperity as well as in trouble, in sickness and in health, in next to care and love until the end of this life or not?

-Veera: I… promise to always love you and will forever love you no matter what happens in the future. To me, you are my one and only love for the rest of my life.

-Ken: Mr. Kasem, are you willing to agree to marry Mr. Veera as your life partner, promising to remain faithful to Mr. Veera, in good times and bad, in sickness and in health, in next to care and love until the end of this life or not?

- Kasem: I…. I promise to always love you with my own tenderness, to always be patient with our love completely. I will join you to enjoy a beautiful life and be with you whenever you need it. I promise to wholeheartedly turn to your warm heart because that place is my home.

Ken: Two people can exchange rings.

-Sam: Oh… Thany, where's the ring?

-Thany: Wow! Come here

From surprise everyone turned to laughter at Thany's oblivion because she was the one holding the ring but forgot her own mission. And Veera at the top raised his eyebrows at his sister with helplessness.

-Kasem: Did you prepare this? Since when?

-Thany: This is my first design, I want to dedicate it to two people. Either way, you both make me happy and I wish you two always be together like now. Above all, love this little girl.

-Kasem: Did you design it yourself? Really thank you very much.

It was the second time, Veera put a ring on Kasem, but once was to confess on the beach and today was their own wedding. Kasem still can't describe the happiness even though Kasem himself said this wedding is not necessary, but really he wants to thank everyone very much for this surprise. Kasem hugged Veera close, hid his face in Veera's chest and burst into tears in the cheers of everyone around.

-Ken: Everyone toast to our young couple.

-Veera: You can cry later, let's raise a glass to everyone.

-Everyone: Raise a glass, congratulations

After the congratulation, fireworks were resounded to light up the sky. Next, a song was played to match the atmosphere.

-Diny: Before you two kiss, Mr. Kasem, can you toss the bouquet for us to catch? I need your luck.

-Lya: I need it too.

-Kasem: Then invite our girls and boys into position to receive this bouquet. He hopes the catcher will also have his own happiness.

Kasem turns away from everyone like a bride tossing a wedding bouquet to pass luck to the recipient.

-Kasem: One… Two… Three… catch

-Sam: Wow… Mr. New…

-Veera: Tan, do you need my help when it's your turn.

Tan was surprised at Veera's question, both happy and embarrassed at the same time. Maybe the next wedding everyone gets to attend is Tan and New's. They know such marriages will not be legalized yet, but they hope for future approval that they, like other couples, will be legalized.

-Ken: The moment everyone has been waiting for has arrived. Mr. Veera can kiss Mr. Kasem now.

-Everyone: Kiss me… Kiss me… Kiss me

-Kasem: Can't it be ignored... (Kasem said shyly)

-Veera: I can't let them down.

Veera kissed Kasem lightly on the lips right after his words. Everyone cheered, liking to lose at what they saw. Then everyone sat down at the table to enjoy the prepared food.

Kasem's father: This time, I really trusted my son for you. Hope you will always bring him happiness. If you upset him I'm ready to take him home.

-Veera: I will hold her hand tightly, there will be no scene of Kasem coming home because I let her down.

Kasem's mother: We were also surprised by today's party, so we haven't prepared a present for you. Next time I come home, I'll take you.

-Kasem: It's okay mom. Just two people accepting and being at this party is a gift for me.

-Gin: We knew in advance, so we have a gift box, although it's small, we hope you will accept our hearts. Wish you always happy.

Everyone took turns giving blessings to Kasem and Veera. Just like that, they spent a party full of laughter and happiness.

For Veera, everyone is family

Kasem is everything to Veera. Sometimes, stepping on a wrong bus will bring you to your desired destination and sometimes randomly choosing that person is the missing color in your rainbow. Instead of looking for the missing rib dew, you should find the right rib dew for you. Love is a miracle, open the door when you are ready, receive new happy moments.
