Aini's Heart Journey

Doubt

"It's sleeping in Ardi's room with,,"

"Don't be weird, Ma!" Ardi suddenly.

"How weird? Actually, if Mama sleeps with Aini, what is weird? Both are female. How the hell are you?" Niken replied annoyedly, while holding back her laughter.

Everyone laughed at Ardi's words. Ardi turns out to be exposed to his mother's prank again who has many naughty ideas.

Ardi thought her mother would ask her to sleep in the room with Aini. But it didn't. Ardi was soon silent a thousand languages. He tried to put a flat face to cover his embarrassment.

"Or are you the one who wants to be weird? Aye, right?" Cecar Niken relax.

"What weird do you mean Mama?" Polo Ardi.

In fact, the widower who was a little cornered, knew very well the meaning of his mother. But, he tried to cover up his naughty mind earlier.

"Yes, my mom doesn't know. You're the one who said macem-macem." Answer Niken relax.

Ardi did not answer Niken anymore.

"So Mama wants to propose, what if Aini sleeps in your room, same Mama? Keep on you, sleeping together papa in the room there." Imbuh Niken while pointing towards the room he meant.

"But Ma, Papa wants to be massaged by Mama. Papa's a little tired." Sela Rama was a little whining.

"Tuh Aunt! Om Rama wants to be taken with Aunty. So, Aunt slept just as well as usual." Timpal Gilang's.

"Begging Ardi for a massage first, Pa! Poor Aini." Answer Niken immediately.

"Okay, Ardi agreed with Mama's proposal." Sela Ardi without hesitation.

Ardi also immediately sauntered, leaving people who were still a little confused because of the room problem earlier. He immediately headed for the room that was supposed to be the room for his parents.

All a little giggling because of seeing Ardi's behavior. Aini, even a little unwell because it must trouble everyone when they will rest.

Everyone finally entered their rooms. And as Niken proposed, Niken ended up sleeping one room with Aini. Ardi slept in a room with his father.

Aini was a little clumsy when she laid her body on the bed. He was a little embarrassed for Niken.

"Luck it! Let's sleep! Tomorrow there's still one place to go." Say Niken after realizing Aini gelagat.

"Yes, Mom." Answer Aini sungkan.

The two women immediately closed their neutrals. Aini who felt quite tired with her physique and mind, immediately fell asleep. But not with Niken. He watched the sleeping woman's face beside him after confirming that she had fallen asleep.

"Can you be my daughter-in-law later?" Inner Niken sad.

Niken really hopes, Aini can be her daughter-in-law. Being a wife, from her only son. But, the shadow of her conversation with Aini a while ago, was quite disturbing to her mind.

Niken still remembers, Aini did not want to marry again. Aini wanted to improve herself and fix her heart first. Aini wanted to focus on Umar, whom she had been fighting for some time.

"Should I set him up?" Inner Niken despair.

Niken was still busy with his thoughts, when the night rolled and late. He also finally fell asleep after getting tired of his own heart.

The morning greeted me. The morning commotion returned. All pack up and get ready to go to their destination today. A small island that still exists within the territory of the archipelago of Madura.

They visited the beach today. Ardi and Aini are trapped in the same car and alone.

Ardi tried hard to unravel the awkward atmosphere that was so felt. He tried to chat with Aini who was still a lot silent. Really, it's been a difficult thing for Ardi. He had not expected, Aini would react so far.

Aini was still struggling with her heart. He still does not know, how to deal with Ardi at this time. So, he chose to be more silent in the meantime.

After crossing the ocean, they are welcomed back with an exotic stretch of beach sand. With its beauty and charm. In fact, they are also greeted by underwater beauty which is unfortunate if missed.

All was washed away again in a holiday atmosphere full of laughter. In fact, Aini was carried away by a pleasant holiday atmosphere with others. For a moment, he forgot the turmoil of his heart that was quite confused to address Ardi. He can even play water and beach sand with Ardi and others.

"Ni," Call Ardi softly.

Ardi was sitting next to Aini who was busy sitting watching Umar and Kenzo who were playing the waves.

"Yes?" Aini also spontaneously turned to Ardi.

"Thank you."

"For what, Mom?"

Ardi just smiled. Aini was silent and did not react. He was confused by Ardi's reply.

And while Aini was still in confusion, suddenly, a burly hand, grabbed and pulled her hand just like that. He also reflexively follows the direction of the hand turn off. Which turned out, invited him to approach his two sons who were busy playing the chase waves with others. Aini also reflexes to play with the waves when the waves come.

On the shoreline, two pairs of eyes observed each of the events closely. There was a certain unease from one of them.

"Can Ardi win Aini's heart, Pa?" Mumbled Niken while leaning his head on Rama's shoulder.

"Patience, Mother! Let time answer it. We leave it to the Almighty. We have been praying and trying. Let the hand of God work." Answer Rama wisely.

Niken breathed her heavy breath. He nodded his head understanding. Although, there was still doubt in his heart.

Rama actually likes Aini too. He also did not refuse, if Aini became his daughter-in-law. Although he had not been acquainted with Aini for long, but, staying at home with her, made him understand a little what Aini was like. And there was nothing that made him hesitate to make Aini his daughter-in-law.

By late afternoon, everyone was preparing to return to the villa. Initially, this afternoon they will go straight back to Surabaya. But because of all the fatigue, the return schedule was postponed tomorrow. Ardi immediately contacted his partner for that matter.

No noise tonight. Everyone immediately rested in their rooms. But now, Aini slept with Umar. Kenzo, sleeping with Ardi. As planned by Ardi.

And tonight, Aini had a hard time closing her net. He thought about how good it would be for him to address Ardi.

"Why should I fall for Ardi?"

The sentence echoed in Aini's head nonstop. He also remembered, every sweet treatment Ardi had on him. Every warm smile that so calmed his heart. And every gentle touch that always shakes his heart and soul.

"Give it to You, O God."

Aini immediately closed her eyes with Ardi's shadow still playing in her head. Bring the widow to dreamland more calmly.

Morning greetings. The women were a little confused because there was no food. Moreover, the bocil suddenly hungry when the sun has not even revealed its light. Remember, last night they only had dinner with food ordered through the delivery messaging app. And today, it doesn't count on yesterday's vacation plans.

"Where are you going?" Ardi asked while chasing Aini who suddenly exited the villa.

"Find the stall or the market, Mas. Poor kids." Aini was honest when Ardi grabbed her hand.

"It's still dark, Ni."

"There must have been some people awake."

Ardi smiled at Aini. He did not think, Aini can be so attentive to children. He did not hesitate to find food for children who were hit by hunger after waking up. Even though the sun has not revealed its light.

Ardi did not let go of Aini's hand. He pulled her towards his car. "Wait a minute, I'll get the keys!"

Ardi rushed into the house and took his car keys.

"Where are you going, early in the morning?" Ask Gilang immediately when he saw Ardi carrying the car keys.

"Dating." Answer Ardi origin.

Gilang was immediately curious about Ardi's answer. He chased Ardi out of the house. And when he was on the doorstep, Ardi was right to be with Aini. Ardi was even opening the car door for Aini. Gilang smiled with relief.

"Good luck, Bro!" Gilang muttered as he continued to stare at his busy best friend preparing to leave.

Ardi and Aini are really going both ways. They look for a nearby shop or market. They also ask people they meet, where is the nearest shop or market.

Ardi obviously didn't waste this opportunity.

They arrived at a traditional market that was not so big. But, the goods sold there are quite complete and diverse. Aini immediately hunted raw food ingredients and some snacks.

Ardi also swiftly became a bodyguard and ATM walk for the widow of his love. Although Aini had argued with Ardi about who paid, Ardi could finally seduce Aini to obey him and shop with Ardi's money only. (Good husband candidate 😁)

After feeling enough, Aini went to a snack stand. There was a hot drink there. He bought two warm drinks for her and Ardi. They took him in the car.

"Don't you tell me you're thirsty?" Ask Ardi for attention.

"I'm not so thirsty, Mommy. Poor Mas Ardi, had not been drinking or eating anything at home, even had been around the market from earlier." Honest Aini.

Ardi was stunned by Aini's reply. He did not expect, Aini even thought of such a simple thing. Which he did not really bother about.

"Thank you." Ardi replied with a smile.

"Together, my mother."

Aini's heart suddenly went out of control. Kala Ardi smiled at her after helping her around the market to shop.

For a moment, Aini forgot her heart because of the confusion of how to respond to Ardi. He was acting normal and neutral with Ardi. In fact, there was no awkwardness when talking or a little arguing while shopping earlier.

"Can I have your coffee, Ni? Mine's too bitter." Ardi said without shame.

"What?"

Aini did not believe Ardi's words. He looked at Ardi questioningly. Ardi immediately took Aini's coffee cup and exchanged it for hers.

"Eehh Mas, thatuu,,"

Aini gasped as Ardi snatched his glass and immediately sipped the contents. In fact, right where he was sipping his coffee.

"Sweeter." Said Ardi while smiling with satisfaction.

Aini is still confused with Ardi. He was still holding Ardi's coffee cup stiffly. While Ardi even relaxed and continued to sip the coffee in his hand regardless of Aini who was confused.

"Oh yes, one more thing." Said Ardi casually, while looking at Aini.

Ardi was a little surprised as Aini looked at him confusedly.

"Why you?" Ask Ardi curiously.

"My coffee is even more bitter than yours, Mas. The sugar is less than you. Why do you say sweeter?" Answer Aini plain.

Ardi smiled a little. He slightly leaned his body towards Aini

"Because it's your coffee. And I drink in the same glass and from the marks of your lips. It definitely tastes sweeter." Reply Ardi casually.

"Ap, man,,"

Aini soon realized from her confusion. His cheeks immediately warmed and slightly flushed. He just realized, Ardi was so romantic with him. He didn't think that far. He immediately took his eyes off Ardi. Staring at the coffee glass in his hand with a happy feeling that tickled his heart.

Ardi clearly knew, Aini was blushing in embarrassment at this moment. He smiled and held back his little laugh that wanted to just come off because of Aini's attitude. He also re-stirred his body.

"Ah yes, and one more, Ni." Imbuh Ardi after sipping back his coffee.

"Yes?" Aini turned to Ardi.

"If we're talking, don't use you and me, it sounds stiff!" Pinta Ardi relax.

"But, it's because I respect you, Mas." Honest Aini.

"Use it, me and you! It sounds more relaxed and pleasant to hear." Pinta Ardi again.

"But Mas,,"

"No but-but!" Deny Ardi relaxed.

Ardi again leaned his body towards Aini. And now, even closer than before. Aini also reflexes leaning her body to avoid Ardi.

"Or, you want me to shut you up again like that?" Tempta Ardi naughty.

Aini blinked her eyelids many times. He understood very well, what Ardi meant. He immediately shook his head. And a moment later, Aini even nodded her head.

Ardi was confused by Aini's answer.

"You want me to kiss you again?" Ask Ardi lirih.

Aini shakes her head back.

"I understand, uh, I understand what Mas Ardi means." Answer Aini clumsy.

Ardi was smiling. "Good."

Ardi straightened his body again. Aini did the same.

"Yes, let's go home! They must have been waiting." Take Ardi, after sipping the coffee.

"Yes, Mum." Answer Aini lirih.

Ardi immediately started the engine of his car. He started to walk out of the parking lot feeling pretty happy. The reason was obvious, because it managed to date Aini just now, even if only for a short while. Moreover, he managed to make a bit of a romantic moment with Aini.

Upon arriving at the villa, Ardi and Aini are immediately greeted with happiness by the entire contents of the villa. Not only because they managed to get the energy intake for this morning, but also because their facial features seemed happier than before. Although they do not know, what happened, but they are sure, there is a good thing that happened when Ardi and Aini went shopping earlier.

For a moment Aini looked at Ardi who was busy serving his best friend who was always ignorant and ignorant. He stared at the tenderness and novelty in his heart.

"Should I welcome you, Mother? Because really, I really want to welcome you. Even though I don't know what's gonna happen next." Inner Aini.
