The Temptation of Si Lugu
Passions

"We'll live simply there. Do you mind? We'll stay in a small house and if we take a bath, we'll have to go down to the river" asked Arga as she glanced at Joana without letting go of Joana's hand which she still held on her thigh.

"No. I don't mind living anywhere. As long as you are beside me, I think I will be happy living anywhere. All this time, I've been living with a lot of possessions, living in a luxurious house, but I've never felt happy" Joana said.

Arga kissed Joana's hand and said, "I promise to be a good husband and Papa that our son can be proud of"

"I believe that" said Joana while looking at Arga to give her sweet smile.

Finally Arga and Joana stand in front of the reception desk of a five-star hotel to book a room.

"One room or two rooms?" Ask the woman behind the reception desk.

"One room" Arga said with a wide smile on his handsome face.

"Are you two newlyweds?" Ask the woman behind the reception desk.

"Yes" Sahut Arga.

"No" Joana said.

Arga and Joana looked at each other.

"Which is right? Yes or no?"

Arga immediately looked annoyed, "Yes. Of course it is. Does it not appear on our faces that we are happy and in love with each other? And did you not see our hands continue to be adrift like this from earlier?" Arga raised his hand and Joana's hand which was still adrift.

"Ah, yes, okay. It's key. Our Bell Boy will take you to the room and help bring your luggage. Congratulations on your wedding" said the woman behind the reception desk with a friendly smile.

After giving Bell Boy a tip, Arga goes into the room and as she sees Joana sitting on the edge of the bed awkwardly.

"Aren't you in the shower?" Ask Arga.

"Ah, yes" Joana then picked up a shirt from the suitcase and rushed into the bathroom. In the bathroom, Joana stroked her chest, "Why do I keep deg-degan? I'm pregnant with her child. But, why imagine that tonight I would sleep in one bed with her, my heart beating so hard?"

As soon as Joana came out of the bathroom, Arga went straight into the bathroom. "She was pregnant with my son and a few hours ago we even kissed very hot. But, imagining that I would sleep with him in the same bed, why would my heart beat weirdly and my heart beat abnormally like this?"

Arga knitted her brows as she saw Joana fall on the bed of a lemper-like kayak. Why did he wear a blanket to wrap his body? Is he cold?

Arga sat down on the edge of the bed and she broke down with her cleavage, slept on her side and asked, "Are you sick?" Arga touched Joana's shoulder.

Joana is shocked and so is Arga.

"What's wrong? What's got you surprised? Are you cold? I'm gonna shut down the AC........."

"I'm fine" Joana said.

"Then, why did you wrap your body in a blanket like a gini lemper? And you were shocked when I touched?"

"The doctor said, Papa this child should not touch the mother of this child before this womb even four months old"

Arga gave a sullen lip, then chuckled and said, "Therefore you are, so like a lemper like this?"

Joana turned her body to face Arga and said, "Why laugh? I saved you from the khilaf, kok, laugh"

"Open up. You're stuffy later. Anyway, pity our son, he is not free, tuh" said Arga.

"Mas, wouldn't touch me if I took this blanket off?" Ask Joana.

"Yes. I'm not gonna touch you. I promise" Sahut Arga. "Partially, you need to open your lemper, because we need to get up to eat" said Arga.

Joana opened the blanket wrapped around her body, then breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Lega now"

Arga smiled amusedly, then got up and asked, "What do you want to eat?"

Joana stared at Arga.

"Nobody has ever asked me that. I always eat what Aunt Alma provides and never asked or picky food" Joana said.

"Then, what's your favorite food? Funny, yeah, we're gonna have kids, but I don't know what your favorite food is, what your favorite color is, what your favorite movie is, and what your favorite drink is"

"Yes" Sahut Joana.

"If so, we sit down first. We tell each of us our favorite first before we go for a walk to shop and dinner" Arga sat on the edge of the bed and Joana followed by sitting next to Arga.

"Lady first" Arga turned to Joana.

"alright. I like sweet food. I like cupcakes. I'm good at making cupcakes. Aunt Alma who taught. On vacation, all my friends go on vacation with their Papa and Mama. While I had a long vacation at home, make a cupcake with Aunt Alma"

Arga looked at Joana with concern and while stroking her hair she smiled fondly, then said, "Continue!"

Joana smiled, then said, "I don't like spicy. I like sour drinks, like yogurt, lemon, mango, orange, lychee, strawberry and I also like sour fruit. I don't like to drink milk and I don't like flowers. I like pastel colors. Emm, let alone, huh?"

"The movie you like? Do you like watching movies?" Ask Arga.

Joana shook her head, "I don't like watching movies because my life is more dramatic than all the movies"

Arga who was still stroking Joana's hair was shocked amused to hear Joana's words.

"Now it's your turn, Mas" Joana smiled at Arga.

"Why don't you like flowers?"

"If the smell of flowers smells, I'm nauseous and dizzy" Joana said.

"Then do you like chocolate?" Ask Arga.

"Like. But, that almond taste. Why ask my favorite? Now it's Mas's turn to say everything he likes"

"I like you" Arga looked at Joana meaningfully.

Joana pats Arga on the shoulder and shames in embarrassment.

"I like it when you're embarrassed like that"

Joana's heart was racing without command as she heard Arga's words. Then, Joana quickly patted Arga on the shoulder and said, "Don't tease me, Mas. Let's say what you like and what you don't like!"

Arga smiled amusedly and said, "Alright. I also like sweet food. I also love almond chocolate. Yeeaaayyy, hooray! We have something in common"

Joana was amused and while patting Arga on the shoulder she said, "Forward, Mas!"

"I like milk and I like all kinds of drinks because I like to mix drinks. I like all colors, but I prefer to wear black and white. All kinds of movies I like" Arga grabbed Joana's hand and after she kissed it, she said, "And I like you"

Joana's heart was pounding again without command. When Joana returns to shaming, Arga pulls Joana on the nape and kisses Joana on the lips.

Arga kissed the lips that had made her addicted to it intensely, but full of tenderness.

Joana pushed down Arga's chest and with her chest up and down, she said, "Mas, haven't said what I don't like"

"I don't like being betrayed, lied to, and distrusted" Arga said.

Joana smiled and said, "I promise, I will never betray, lie, Mas. And I promise you, I'll always trust you, Mom"

"Thank you, Ana. If so, let's go out to eat. We will see the taste of our child, follow me or follow you" Sahut Arga while holding the hand of the woman who is pregnant with her child and the woman is the woman he loves very much at this time.

Joana laughs happily walking hand in hand with a kind and gentle man like Arga.

Meanwhile, Paloma flies to Japan to meet her other lover.
