Visit to the house of in-laws

DOCS...DOCS..DOCS...

"Juna, hurry up and take a shower! We're late!" Shouted Luna while banging on the bathroom door. Her husband had been in the bathroom for an hour. Bad habits of smoking in the bathroom that makes the time to bathe Juna become molested for so long.

They were too late to go to the office. Luna was very worried.

He has just been appointed manager. He did not want to set a bad example for his team.

They have been occupying a new home for almost a month. Not much has changed in the condition of the house. Luna and Juna barely have much time to clean up the house.

They wish they had plenty of time for the weekend. It turns out that there are a lot of events that they have to attend. To wash and iron their clothes, still rely on laundry services in front of the housing complex where they live.

The bathroom door opens. Juna's body is still wrapped around a towel. He didn't seem rushed. It even looks more relaxed. Luna was anxious to see it.

"Juna, hurry! We're late!" Luna said. Luna looked very angry and could only shake her head to see her husband's behavior.

"Look, dong!" Juna replied while rolling his eyeballs. He started wearing his work shirt.

"No, I've prepared coffee." Luna pointed to the cup containing coffee that was placed on the desk in the room.

Juna took the cup and drank a mouthful.

"Too sweet." Commentary brief.

Luna snorted annoyedly at Juna's comments.

"Whatchu mean? You're criticizing the way I pour instant coffee into a cup, huh?" Luna protesting while shaking her waist.

How can Juna say too sweet? The coffee in the cup was all derived from instant coffee powder directly brewed in a sachet commonly drunk by Juna. Luna felt that Juna had only existed at that time.

"If you don't like it, you can make your own coffee to taste!" Tukas Luna who has been emotionally overwhelmed.

"What the hell are you? I'm just saying, that's too sweet! I never blame you! For God's sake, Luna!" Juna grumbled while justifying his clothes. Then he grabbed his bag and shoes, then opened the door violently.

"Already! No coffee, no breakfast or anything. Depart, now!" Juna rules.

Along the way, they were silent. There is no discussion of the latest news as usual. Luna seriously looked at the road that again was always densely crawling.

Meanwhile, Juna just kept silent while searching his phone. He reads the news on online media, checks his social media, then checks what the latest movie is playing in theaters today.

Juna is not as busy as Luna. He is rarely busy. The job is relaxed and does not demand too much.

Unlike Luna, Juna almost never receives a call about work while on the trip. Juna also almost never overtime to do his office duties.

He is only overtime, if he feels the need to finish the job so that tomorrow he can relax a little and can play his favorite online game.

"Are you overtime tonight?" Ask Juna. His voice broke the silence that occurred in the congestion situation of the capital.

Apparently, Juna wanted to end the cold war between him and his wife.

"No. Why?" Luna replied while looking at it for a moment. Face softened. He never had anger for more than two hours.

"Maybe, we could stop by my house. Meet Mami. It's been a while, haven't we met?" Juna said slowly.

His father-in-law's residence was very far from where they lived. And, what's so good about seeing you for a second, then going home again? In fact, he himself has not met his parents and his brother, Dewi. His mind was raging in the inner Luna. However, he did not want to fight anymore with Juna.

"You're silent, why? You have other business?" Juna looked at Luna who was driving expectantly.

"Ah, no!" Luna smiled forcedly.

"Yes, we can go to Mommy's house later. Later tonight. No problem." He answered while continuing to focus on driving his car.

"Hi, Mami, how are you?" Sapa Juna kissed her mother's cheek which still looks young at the age of almost 65 years. Her hair was neatly shaved and her lipsticks were daubed in bright colors to welcome the arrival of her beloved son.

Juna is the youngest of three children. The oldest brother is currently continuing S2 in the Netherlands. His second sister, Shasa, is married to a businessman named Matt. They have one child, currently they live in the house of Juna's parents.

Papi Juna, Mr. Soemarjan, the person is quiet and does not talk much. He prefers to sit at a table while playing chess alone.

"Good mom. How y'all? Well, it looks so fresh, yeah, newlyweds!" Mami kissed both of Luna's cheeks while smiling.

Luna replied with a wry smile. Maybe it can't be said to be fresh. The journey they had taken, the route was quite long. From the office, Luna headed to Juna's office to pick up her husband. Then they just headed to his in-laws' house. The route and facing Jakarta street congestion at the hour of office home is enough to spend Luna's energy.

"Hey, newlyweds! Here you go, dong! Eat with yuk!" Shak Shasa who was holding her son. He waved from the dining room. Apparently the Soemardjan family is having dinner.

"Yep, all the dinner!" Mami held Juna's hand towards the dining table. Luna followed them from behind awkwardly.

"Well, by chance, here, Mom. It has been a while since I ate home cooking!" Tail Juna.

Luna, who heard her husband's words, immediately felt her cheeks blushing.

They always eat out. Luna had not had time to learn to cook or at least tried to cook anything.

"Oh, huh?" Mami answered while glancing towards Luna.

Luna pura did not see her in-laws gaze. Luna feels very upset at Juna which makes her look like a wife who is not good at taking care of her husband.

At the dinner table, another member of the Soemardjan family sat down. There's Matt, Shasa's husband, and there's Papi. They shake hands before Juna and Luna take their places at the dinner table. Mami calls a maid to provide cutlery for Juna and Luna.

"So, how, as long as I'm gone, is there any new news?" Nina asked Shasa.

"Not much! Only the Dika, already can eat mango loh, yesterday." Sahut Shasa while raising his cute and adorable son. All the faces on the dining table turned bright looking at that chubby baby.

"You're not delaying, are you?" Arriving, Mami asked straightforwardly. Luna began to be ready to answer questions such as from her in-laws.

"Pending what, Mi?" Juna replied while spooning the rice onto his plate.

"Yes, have a child! You guys didn't put off having kids, did you? Let Dika have a friend." Mami reasoned.

The atmosphere at the dining table was immediately silent. Everyone knows, my question is too personal. Luna herself did not know what to answer, so she waited for Juna to answer. Juna stirred the side dishes on his plate before replying.

"Yes, of course we won't put it off. We want to have a lot of kids, Mom! Just relax!" Juna said with a smile.

Luna cleared her throat. He still doesn't think it out. It was only about a month that they got married, and have started to be terrorized about children.
