After visiting the house of the RT chairman and talking about the home renovation plan owned by his foster parents, Kayra said goodbye. Of course Kayra will still involve local residents, especially Mr. RT who will help supervise because he currently does not live there.
About forty minutes later, Kayra and Erlangga arrived at Nugraha's house. This is the second visit for Erlangga to the house of Nugraha, but the first time for Kayra to visit the house of her biological mother who had married a wealthy businessman in Bandung.
" Kayra, Mama, it's so good that you're finally here, son." Arina hugged Kayra's body when her daughter arrived at her home.
" Kayra is also happy to be able to visit Mama and Papa's place." Kayra returned Arina's embrace.
" How are you, sir?" While Erlangga greeted Nugraha.
" Thank God, fine, son. You forgot your promise back then, son?" It seems like Nugraha billed Erlangga's promise to him.
" I'm sorry, Sir. What is it, sir?" Kening Erlangga to the point of trying to remember what promise he had made to Nugraha until now Nugraha collect his promise.
" You promised you'd call Papa if Kayra found out, right?" Nugraha mentioned the promise Erlangga made during a visit to his office a few months ago.
" Geez, sorry, I forgot that." Erlangga patted her forehead. He only remembered if he had said that when he first met Nugraha in Nugraha's office.
" Tuh, right! I forgot it again." Kayra who heard Erlangga's chat with Papa continued to immediately reprimand her husband.
" Sorry, Pa. I'm really sorry." Erlangga felt bad for forgetting his promise to Nugraha. Especially when his wife had reprimanded him, of course Erlangga did not want Kayra to lecture him later.
" It's okay, son. Papa knows there's a lot you have to think about." As a fellow entrepreneur, of course Nugraha better understand Erlangga.
" Dear, I'm sorry." Erlangga wrapped her hands around his wife's waist because Kayra was still staring at him sharply. " Papa has forgiven me, really." Erlangga grinned.
" Yes already, let's go in ..." Arina then let Erlangga and Kayra into her house.
" Ryan, come here, son." Nugraha called his second son who had just come out of the room making the young man approach them. Coincidentally Ryan is returning to Indonesia because there are things to take care of in Bandung.
" Ryan, meet. This is your sister ... Kayra." Nugraha introduces Kayra to Ryan.
" Hey, Brother. I'm Ryan. It's good to see Kayra." Ryan shook Kayra's hand, but her gaze continued to pay attention to Kayra's pretty face until it made her eyes narrow and her eyebrows intertwined.
Finding Ryan watching his wife so closely makes Erlangga feel uncomfortable, even though Ryan is Kayra's younger brother.
" Oh, hi, Ryan. Brother is also happy to meet you .." said Kayra who was not aware of Ryan's attitude.
" Your sister is pretty, right?" Erlangga tried to disturb Ryan who still looked engrossed in looking at Kayra.
" Eh, oh yeah, pretty. Kayra's sister is really pretty." I'm Ryan honestly. " Hmmm, but .. Kak Kayra's face is similar to that of the woman whom Kak Aldi was expecting? The name is the same ... Kayra." Finally Ryan honestly mentioned what made him look closely at Kayra.
Ryan's honest statement made Kayra and Erlangga gasp. Kayra immediately misbehaved, while Erlangga immediately put on a serious face and was uncomfortable with Ryan's words.
" You're all there, Yan." Arina instead chuckles at the descent of the first son from her marriage to Nugraha.
While Nugraha tried to examine Ryan's words. He even concluded that the cause of Rivaldi was too intent on bringing down Mahadika Gautama, especially Erlangga, because his son was competing with Erlangga to get Kayra. Because all this time his son was not open about the woman who was liked by Rivaldi.
" Is your brother confiding with you?" ask Arina continues to discuss about Rivaldi. While Nugraha suspected that what was said by Ryan was right when he found the changes in the body gestures of Kayra and Erlangga.
" Yes, Ma. Aldi brother had a story a few months ago if he liked a woman named Kayra. The picture was also sent to Aldi, Ma. Too bad I deleted the picture. I'm afraid Susan's jealous that there's a picture of another woman in my cell phone gallery, Ma." Ryan reasoned.
" Maybe it was just a coincidence. In this world there are many people who look alike." Nugraha shook his hand into the air. He did not want his wife and children to continue discussing the woman his son liked.
" You guys haven't had lunch yet, have you? We just eat, okay? This bumil must be hungry." Arina rubbed Kayra's stomach and invited Kayra and Erlangga to have lunch first.
" Yes, Ma." answered Kayra, then she held her husband's hand. She knew her husband's heart was being troubled by Ryan's words.
After a few minutes at the dinner table ....
" Ryan went to Australia, huh?" kayra asked trying to get along with her mother's younger sister as they enjoyed lunch.
" Yes, Brother. I'm in Camberra if Rio's in Melbourne. Kayra's sister has been there? If you go there stop by me or Rio." Ryan was so warm that he accepted Kayra as his sister.
" Never." Shaking her head, Kayra replied with a shy blush.
" If Brother Erlangga has his own business? What field, brother?" Now it was Erlangga's turn to be asked by Ryan.
" Automotive parts manufacturer," said Erlangga flat.
" How is it like Aldi? Hopefully, Aldi with Erlangga Kak do not compete with each other" Ryan later said. " Oh yes, Ma. Didn't Aldi come here?" Again Ryan alluded to Rivaldi, making Kayra and Erlangga look at each other.
" Mama asked your sister to come here because she wanted to introduce you to Kayra and Eagle, but Aldi said, no promise can come because there is a need. But hopefully later we can come and meet Kayra and the Eagle." Arina does not know what happens if there is a problem between Erlangga and Rivaldi so casually say about Rivaldi that he hopes to be present at his home.
" When I said I wanted to go home to Bandung, Kak Aldi ngajak I glamping you know, Ma. So, now it's super busy?" asked Ryan in surprise. " I'll try to call Aldi so I can come here. Sis Aldi must be surprised to see Kak Kayra's face looks a lot like the woman he's obsessed with." Ryan just chuckles not knowing if Erlangga's heart is turbulent because it continues to discuss Rivaldi and the woman Rivaldi likes who is none other than his wife.
***
" Mum, do not show dislike with Mr. Aldi in front of Papa and Mama. It's not good if they know that Mr. Aldi and Mas once competed because Mr. Aldi used to like me." After Kayra and Erlangga went into the guest room they would use to stay, Kayra conveyed the uneasiness in her heart because of her husband's unfriendly attitude.
" Don't let Papa and Mama know about this." Kayra rubbed her husband's chest. " Please forgive Mr. Aldi's attitude towards Mas and Mas company first. I'm sure if Papa and Mama knew, he would also regret Mr. Aldi's attitude." Kayra tried to persuade her husband not to continue to cultivate hatred for Rivaldi.
" I promised I'd be my dream husband. Can forgive mistakes for what Mr. Aldi has done, it brings Mas closer to the criteria of my dream husband, you know." Not even reluctant Kayra seduced Erlangga so that Erlangga could be calm. He also immediately spoiled with a tangle in the arms of the husband.
Kayra's spoiled behavior, made Erlangga directly wrap his hands on the wife's shoulders.
Kayra spontaneously covered her face with her palm.
" Why are you covering your face like that, honey?" Erlangga asked in wonder.
" Rather than later pinch the same Mas." Kayra's voice was muffled from being covered in her hands.
Kayra's reply made Erlangga laugh out loud. He then lifted his wife's body which is now heavier because there is their baby in the belly of his wife.
" Aaakkhh, Mommy." Kayra spontaneously shouted and took her hands off her face as she felt her body float through the air. Spontaneously, his hand was now wrapped around the husband's neck.
" I then give you another punishment ..." Erlangga lay down the body of the wife on the complaint.
" What did I do wrong, Mom? How punished?" Kayra's wiggly finger rubbed her husband's jaw.
" You were punished because you were so adorable that your husband became even more infatuated with you." Erlangga now links his lips on the lips of ranum which has become a mandatory vitamin that must be consumed by him at any time, because it is too opium to touch the lips.
" It's still noon, Mas. It's not good to do this in people's homes." Kayra warns her husband, as she is uncomfortable having to have in-team relationships in people's places.
" Hahaha, why? It's your Mama's house too, honey."
" Yes, but I'm ashamed, Mas." replied Kayra. " Fear of hearing ..." Kayra giggled as she closed her mouth.
" What does that sound like, hemm?" Erlangga rubbed Kayra's neck with her nose.
" Anglish, Mas." Kayra asked her husband to stop the action. But it is not covered by Erlangga.
" Deck, Papa Nakalin Mama!" Not served by her husband, Kayra as if complaining to the baby in her stomach.
Erlangga then turned to his wife's baby bump. He slowly stroked his wife's belly, which had begun to bulge because it was estimated that next month their first child would be born into this world.
" I can't wait to see our child born into this world" Erlangga said later.
" I am too, Mas. I can't wait to carry her, Mom." Kayra replied to her husband.
" I wish he had a wise attitude like you, dear." Erlangga hoped that his son would have a wise attitude like his wife.
" And certainly as handsome as his father." Kayra reciprocated Erlangga's praise by praising her husband back, making Erlangga again link kiss on the sweet lips of the woman who had been a part of her life.
While in room Nugraha ...
" Ma, Papa felt that what Ryan said was true." Nugraha felt the need to talk to Arina about her conjecture if the woman Rivaldi liked was indeed Kayra.
" What's right, Pa?" Arina walked over to her husband who was sitting on the sofa chair in her room.
" On the women who are liked by Aldi," answered Erlangga.
" Papa mean, the woman Aldi likes is Kayra my son, Pa?" Arina widened her eyes.
" Yes." Yeah." Nugraha put his hands on the shoulder of the sofa. Nugraha and Rivaldi never told Arina if Rivaldi had worked in the office of Mahadika Gautama. That's what makes Arina not suspect something when Ryan says the woman Rivaldi likes is indeed Kayra.
" Don't you know where?" ask Arina curiously.
" Aldi had previously worked in the office owned by Erlangga, Ma. Kayra once told Mama that they met and she married Erlangga because she was Erlangga's secretary, right?" Nugraha had heard his wife talk about Erlangga meeting with Kayra.
" What do you think is a coincidence what Ryan said?" tanya Nugraha asked the opinion of the wife.
" Geez, so the Kayra Ryan was referring to was actually Kayra my son, Pa?" Arina gasps to find out that Rivaldi really likes Kayra.
" Yes, Ma. Papa thinks so too. And Aldi's relationship with Erlangga has been harmonious, because as long as Aldi hides his identity during his work in the Mahadika office. Aldi deliberately wanted to rival the Mahadika company by infiltrating the office owned by Erlangga did want to steal information about the business that he would apply in his own company. It was there that Aldi started to like Kayra." Nugraha told Arina everything about her son's unsportsmanlike actions.
" Athaghfirullahal adzim, why would Aldi do that, Pa?" Arina did not expect that her son was doing that cunning.
" Papa hope Mama does not hate Aldi, because Aldi did all that because Aldi loved Mama very much. Aldi always sees Mama sad whenever he remembers his son. And Aldi feels that the Mahadika family must take responsibility for Mama's grief so that it makes her want to take revenge for Mama's pain." Nugraha explained the cause of Rivaldi committing such an unworthy act.
" O God, Mama doesn't hate Mr. Krishna's family, Pa." Arina crying. He felt that Rivaldi had misinterpreted his grief, which eventually led to a conflict between Rivaldi and Erlangga, let alone they both ended up liking the same woman, Kayra.
