365 Day Contract
Chapter 70
Mama Sonia sits casually in the living room while watching a movie. The middle-aged woman occasionally glanced at the wall clock. Almost 1 hour Mama Sonia sat there, waiting for her son and daughter-in-law who were on their way home from the beach. I called Jihan, she said she'll be home soon. But it has been almost 1 hour not seen the trunk of his nose.
In the midst of boredom that enveloped Mama Sonia for too long waiting, Shaka instead deliberately slowed down the speed of his car and stopped at a restaurant for lunch. Even if they drive a car at a normal speed, they can get home before lunch. Unfortunately, Shaka did do it deliberately so that Mama Sonia was upset because she waited too long.
"Why not just bring the food home.? Mom is waiting at home." Jihan gave little advice when Shaka ordered food to eat on the spot.
"I'm hungry, Jihan. Can't make it home first." Shaka.
Jihan rolled her eyes lazily. He understood that Shaka was just looking for an excuse to buy more time on the road. Since being caught hiding a pregnancy, Shaka and Mama Sonia have often been involved in a cold war. Jihan even ran out of words just to describe her husband and mother-in-law.
"Wait Mama angry how.?" Jihan asked with a lazy expression. Not lazy to Mama-in-law, but lazy with the mouth war between Shaka and Mama Sonia. If it is like that, Jihan is confused who to defend. Because just breaking up will not make both of them stop fighting.
"Say her grandson couldn't stand lunch." Sahut Shaka relax. She's found Mama Sonia's weakness. Whatever the reason if it relates to the child in the womb of Jihan, it can certainly be understood and will not be angry.

Juna looked closely at the beautiful face of Vierra in front of him. The girl was enjoying her lunch at a simple dining venue. The cheapest place to eat may be the first time visited by Vierra since he was close to Juna.
Vierra raised her face when she felt she was being noticed. He frowned when he found Juna caught looking at him.
"What's up.?" Vierra stared in wonder.
Juna let out a heavy sigh and averted his gaze.
"I don't think we can continue like this. You are a woman, you need certainty. As you know, I can't promise anything before I graduate and get a job." Lirih Juna with a feeling that was not good, even the look of his face looked frustrated.
"If there's a more promising good man out there, you can consider him for your own future." Juna gulped with difficulty when he felt tightness in his chest because he asked Vierra along with other men.
Vierra was stunned, the spoon in her hand she placed directly on the plate and shifted the plate that had not finished her food. His appetite is instantly lost because of Juna's words.
"I don't protest when you ask to end our relationship and become good friends. Because I believe you will prove your point four months ago. I also don't mind waiting until you graduate and get a job." Vierra said with fiery eyes, between anger and disappointment.
"We've agreed to make good friends and continue the relationship after you have a job. Why are you telling me to consider another man now.?" Vierra's voice trembled and her eyes reddened holding back the cry.
Only Juna Vierra feels appreciated as a woman. Even if Juna never demeaned let alone harass him. Juna really took care of it without wanting to damage it even though he actually had a lot of opportunities to do so. It makes Vierra convinced that Juna is the right man to be a companion for life. Vierra felt really need a figure like Juna when married later.
"Vie, to be honest the situation is very difficult for me." Juna looked on pity, he could not bear to see the sadness in Vierra's eyes. Actually Juna also wanted to survive, but he was always worried about the condition of his social status which was much different from the Vierra family.
Juna blocks Vierra's wrist as the woman is about to leave.
"It's not about another woman. But about my condition." Juna said quickly.
"Vierra, you and I are very different." He nodded with a choked voice.
"Okay, I get it.! Let's just blow it all away and stop being friends." Vierra brushes Juna's hand and leaves. Juna could see Vierra shedding tears as it passed. The girl is seen wiping her tears before coming out of the dining area.
Juna didn't prevent her from feeling confident about her decision. Although his heart also hurt and was not willing to let go of Vierra just like that.
"Sorry," Lirih Juna was full of regrets. He should have followed when his brother commemorated him 4 months ago. But still still in touch with Vierra despite changing status to be a friend.

"You must have gone home long ago.! Mama called Jihan." Omelin Mama Sonia on Shaka.
The man looked indifferent even though Mama Sonia's face was already furious at him.
"Jihan's stomach sounds, he can't be late for lunch. Mama could see Mama's granddaughter starving."
"Ck, yeah,,! Just alesan." Mama Sonia doesn't believe me. He then took Jihan by the arm.
"Let's see what Mama brought." Invite enthusiastic. Jihan followed Mama Sonia's steps upstairs.
Shaka follows Mama and his wife out of curiosity. I don't know this time what Mama Sonia brought to her granddaughter. Shaka even dizzy to see the stuff in the child's room which is almost full because the mother always carries baby equipment every time she visits.
Shaka can only shake his head to see the many new equipment bought by his mother. The 6 x 4 meter room is full of baby items and clothes. What makes Shaka even more upset, he can only buy clothes because Mama Sonia has bought all the baby equipment since knowing Jihan is pregnant.
"Mama is right, the room is full, do not add the goods-bqrang again. If this room is full of stuff, Shaka's son will sleep where." Shaka protest is upset.
"Your house is still quite spacious, adding one more room can still be." Mama Sonia looked indifferent and unconcerned, she was too eager to show the items she bought.
Jihan codes Shaka to be quiet and not to give Sonia zmama. Because if one of them does not want to be silent, it will definitely lead to debate.
