Like the promise he made last night to his two sisters. Rey kept it up, even she drove and picked up her sister's school. After school he let his sister rest first before helping with her schoolwork. While at that time he had just returned from his new home with his wife, saw the stage where it had been cleaned and looking for some new items that would be filled in the house.
He threw himself on the couch and rested there. While his wife is helping her mother in the kitchen to make her sister's favorite cake that is always made whenever one of them wants to eat the cake made by her mother. Rey knew that her mother was very good at making cakes because she had a pastry shop business while she was a child.
This time the burden of his mind is how he can be more familiar with his in-laws. After the confession from her in-laws, Rey was quite awkward if she had to speak at length again like before.
He got off the couch and approached his mother and wife there. The man approached his wife who was stirring some ingredients and tasted the chocolate that was being cut by her mother. “You two have eaten?”
“Numbers, Ma,”
“Why do you tell your sister to sleep if you haven't had lunch?” mother said. Rey didn't respond to that. But more busy with tasting the chocolate cut by his mother earlier. “Marwa hasn't eaten yet?”
“Udah was eating on the road. Don't know if you're still hungry or not,”
“You have dinner!”
“Udah full, Ma. It'll be the afternoon I'm the same Mas Rey wants to go to the parents' place. So let's have dinner there,”
“Tomorrow if you want to go home do not need permission with your outrageous husband,”
“Kok that, Ma?” marwa answered, seeing her husband grinning when his mother said so.
“Yes yes, there was a husband who refused his wife to go home to his own parents. Do not love the same wife until she wants to go home just have to be curbed so,”
“Neither, Ma. Mama herself will know that she's pregnant,”
“There are no cravings? Yes, of course, if cravings for mama's cooking or something, the point is not prohibited. Mama's upset to hear that you banned her from coming home,”
“Work works. But don't lose responsibility. And never separate children from parents if married. You can't wait, especially Marwa there are no brothers. Don't be selfish, Rey. Papa you never forbid Mama to go home Om Dimas,”
Rey nodded and heard every ramble of her mother. “By the way, Ma. I've never been to Om Dimas's place,”
“That's it, let alone the house of Om Dimas. To your house of in-laws never. Especially want to go to the house Om Dimas,”
A lot happened after he got married. Many times are never used well even if only gathered with his family. “Let's if there's time I'll stop by Om Dimas' house. Poor Aunt Viona I never saw,”
“Erlangga never tell you?”
“Ngak, Mom. He stopped by the office the most after college. Get him, Ma. Very busy with his college work,”
“Saking is busy never forget his family. However, as still as small as Om Dimas take good care of you, Aunt Viona never want you. Erlangga is a friend who is always loyal to you. Though yes you always forget to them,”
“Not forgotten anyway, Ma. But because there is no time,”
“Lyla often ask you if we go there, Rey. He said he wanted to see you, but you never had time to play there. Clara also often asked you if in the house of Oma. If Mama goes there, she'll come home and hope to see you,”
“He can be here anytime, Ma,”
“Mana can be like that. Maybe he knows because you are married, if you want to meet not as freely as before. He takes care of your wife's feelings, know that Clara has met you she is like how, maybe he does not want to be bored and does not want to miss his behavior if it is the same you,”
“Minimal yes you're the one looking for him. The time he keeps looking for you, let alone you. Just like Leo he was very upset, so that if Leo went there he hugged Leo and did not want to escape,”
“Previous fight every day. Throw and bite each other,”
“That was it. Now different again, yes you will also understand the same thing later with your sister if you already have children. Mama used to do it too, going home every day. Meet the same Om Dimas. Om you have always been good, but if I've been horrified. Rarely angry, once angry mama's nyari shrivel, especially Papa you certainly will not dare to mess around,” Nagita recalled that it used to be how Dimas acted when he divorced Azka and at that time Dimas drove Azka not to accept her husband again to the house. But Azka's efforts that never messed around in the end made Dimas melt too.
No matter how Dimas refused. Until it finally collapsed as well and let Nagita back again in Azka's embrace.
“Mama daydreams, think what try?”
“Papa you,” he said spontaneously. Nagita blushed because her son teased her after she said such a thing.
“Mama same Papa is always romantic huh. Moreover, Papa who always gave up with Mama,” replied Marwa who joined in their conversation. Rey who heard that immediately approached his wife.
“Indeed, your husband hasn't given up on you?”
“Apaan anyway, Mas. Shy to know, hugging,” his wife protested when Rey hugged Marwa.
Nagita shook her head and smiled at her son who was always teasing his wife. “Mending you guys just rest, Mama is okay alone. You'll leave later,”
“Is it really okay?” tawar Rey's.
“Mas mending sleeping there. I'm helping Mama here,”
“Sleep means both, if not sleeping itself, the name is,”
“Keep what?”
“Merana, think of a busy wife. While the husband is alone in the room, not fun to know,”
Marwa was furious to hear her husband saying so, she immediately pinched Rey's stomach until her husband complained of pain. “Yeah you are very fierce yes since pregnant,” protest Rey replied to his wife by pinching his wife's cheek.
“What is pregnant?” chirps mama.
Rey scratches his head then kisses his mother and pulls Marwa away from the kitchen leaving her alone there. “Bi, help Mama make cake ya!” he said to the aunt who had just lifted the clothesline.
“Screaming like people in the forest only you, Mas.”
“Bawels. Come hunted!”
