Today I decided to go to Merry's tea shop. Just to cheer myself up because there's nothing I can do at home. Merry greeted me with a hug when I arrived at her teahouse.
"How are you?" Ask Merry.
"I'm good." I reply and sit down.
"Sounds like you're tired? Did Andreas make you tired last night?" Ask Merry again.
"Crazy. How could you possibly think that way, while you yourself know that Papa just died yesterday." My answer.
"Hehehe yeah I think because you're newlyweds, so it'll definitely do the ritual the first night." Merry said with an awkward laugh.
"It doesn't look like it's going to happen in a few days." My speech.
"Loh why? How could that be?"
"Because we are still in mourning." My speech.
"Are you two able to hold back?"
"You've always had a husband, your question is always absurd." My protest.
"Hahaha yes-iya sorry. Then wait a minute, I want to drink first."
"Why don't you just ask your employees." My speech.
"Specifically for you, I never asked employees to make it. You can only drink my handmade."
"Yes, it's up to you." My reply.
I thought about what Merry said.
'Can I and Andreas hold back?'
Of course you can, you can. It would be very strange, if in a state of grief even do the relationship. At least we have to wait until the mourning period is over.
'Why am I thinking about that?'
I patted my own head while laughing.
In the afternoon I went home and found Mama cooking in the kitchen. I immediately helped her who looked like she was cooking chicken opor.
"Sorry Ma, I came home late. Had to stop by the hospital for a routine check-up." My speech.
"It's okay, baby. What about the results of the doctor's examination?" Ask Mama.
"The cancer cells in my body are gone. But I still have to take the vitamins and drugs from the doctor to keep the cancer cells from growing." My answer.
"Thank God. Come on now you try this. Not good yet?" Mama asked as I tasted the chicken soup that Mama cooked.
"Ma's sword." My reply.
"Didn't you like spicy? Andrew...."
"Like spicy." I interrupted Mama. "I also like it spicy because of Andreas Ma."
My mother smiled warmly at me. It makes me feel incredible happiness. I can finally get the figure of a Mama from my mother-in-law who is very good.
The next few days my relationship with my mom was getting closer. We even went shopping together.
Shopping is one of the favorite activities for all women. Not only shopping for household needs, I also accompany Mama-in-law while shopping for fashion items or furniture.
I try to show my attention by recognizing her taste in her favorite style of dress or furniture choices. Not to forget I slipped a compliment about the accuracy of Mama in buying valuables slanted, as well as her appearance that always looks elegant.
Her name is mother, of course, always knows how to pamper your beloved child. Therefore I asked Mama-in-law to teach me how to cook a favorite menu of the husband to fill quality time both.
In addition to being able to show sufficient cooking skills, talks with Mama-in-law can flow more smoothly. In fact, this opportunity can also be used to get to know my husband more deeply and recognize what food menus he likes.
Just a few days of traveling through household life, Mama in fact can be a place to complain while getting good advice, considering the experience is quite long in undergoing marriage.
I used to wonder what kind of in-laws I would have. In some social media groups that I follow, in-laws are often told as evil figures. Whether you like to check the household life of the child, scolding the daughter-in-law, to make the daughter-in-law suffer. In short, I read and heard more complaints about in-laws than compliments about them.
First met with Mama-in-law when the proposal made Arnold and his family first. I instantly feel ‘tenang’. Mama is a shady figure.
Then after the proposal to the wedding, I began to approach Mama-in-law via phone considering she lives in a village that is quite far away. We are talking about something light.
After I got married, I realized how good my mother-in-law was.
But it is so different from Arnold that in fact has a nature like the Great Lord Setyawan. However, now another story because I have become the wife of Andreas.
Andreas' affectionate nature seems to have declined from Mama as well. When we went home to Mama's house, before marriage, Mama-in-law treated me so well. Even though Mama herself knew that I had married her second son and even came to see him as a prospective wife of her first son again.
People say that sustenance is not just about matter. The sustenance of God is vast, one of which has kind-hearted in-laws.
Before getting married, I prayed that I would have a good family partner, not just a good partner. And that prayer was granted by God.
Of course, the main good in-law is to educate his son well. Andreas once told me that his whole life had only been angry once. Mama always taught and exemplified about being gentle.
Mother's other prominent upbringing was her open attitude to her children. He will tell about anything to the child, for example about the condition of parents. In addition, he also likes to encourage children to tell anything openly. Parental openness makes the child feel comfortable and close.
'May Mama-in-law live a long and healthy life!'
Andrew came home right at dinner. His face was so tired. He must be exhausted from work. I hurried to get the bag he was carrying. And opened the suit he was wearing.
"You don't have to do all this, baby. I can do it myself." Andreas Said.
I sat in the bed and Andreas immediately put his head in my lap. He closed his eyes and breathed a long breath. From the look on his face he was really tired. I rubbed his face gently.
"Rest if you're tired. Don't force yourself to work." My speech.
"Yes. I still have a lot to do. It's also about Papa's legacy company and Arista's company." Reply Andreas.
'Arista Company?'
Why can I forget. Now Arnold's in jail, so Arista's company automatically nobody handles it.
"Darling, I'm sorry I haven't been able to take you on your honeymoon for now. But I promise, I'll take you out soon. Just be patient." Andreas said again.
"That's it. Why do you keep talking about that. I'm doing fine. Why have a honeymoon. We can also honeymoon anywhere." Smiling words.
"Yes, yeah. Now if you want to do your job as a wife. Come with me to the bathroom and bathe me." Andreas Said.
"W-what?" I was suddenly nervous.
"Come on little girl. Didn't you say that we can honeymoon anywhere."
"But-but...."
"Haha... I was just kidding, baby. But I'm serious about getting you into the bathroom."
"Well! U-for what?"
"The hair is scary." Reply Andreas and walk into the bathroom.
For a moment I was silent, and I didn't know what to do. I was pensive while biting my lips.
"Come on little girl. I'm tired of waiting." Andreas Said.
Even though we were married, I had never seen her body. If I go in, I can...
"I'm yaang...." Andreas screams that instantly made me run into the bathroom.
I closed my eyes as I went inside and opened them slowly.
"What's wrong?" Ask Andreas.
It turned out that he was already inside a bath full of foam. And just showing his head.
"Let's hurry, shampoo and massage my head." Andreas's Word.
I laughed in my heart, I thought Andreas would show me his body. Slowly I started putting shampoo on Andreas' head and began to gently massage him.
"Dear, it turns out you're also talented in massaging. I love you more." Her speech.
After the shampooing drama ended, we both went downstairs to dinner with Mama and Angelica.
"Let's hurry. This is Mama cooking chicken opor with the help of your wife." Say Mama.
"Oh yeah? I wonder how it feels." Andreas Said.
I started filling Andreas' plate with rice and other side dishes. He started to eat the chicken opor I had made with Mama.
"Oh my God, it tastes delicious. Honey did you put the powders of love into it?" Andreas' words that made Angelica choke.
"What the fuck? Since when did Brother Andreas become bucin like this?" Angelica Protest.
My mom and I just laughed.
"Later you'll feel for yourself how her name falls in love. You'll be so much nicer than me." Reply Andreas.
"Never will." Angelica.
*********
A week later, everything was back to normal. Andreas didn't go to the office today. He gave me a gift box as we sat down for breakfast in the dining room with Mama and Angelica.
"What's this?" My toot.
"Open." Answer Andreas.
I slowly opened the box and found two tickets to Switzerland. I looked at Andreas in wonder. He just smiled.
"A plane ticket?" Ask Angelica and I just nodded. "Cieee wants a honeymoon here ye..."
"What the hell is." My reply.
"Prepare to leave today." Andreas Said.
"But, we're still in an atmosphere of mourning and your work?"
"Don't think about it all. It's been a week. And there's also work problems in the office."
"That's it. It's time for you on vacation. There are so many problems you have faced. It's time for you guys to have fun." Say Mama. "Go."
I nodded and went to my room to pack the clothes I was carrying.
'Switzerland I'm coming....'
Seriate....
