"Lohs. How come back again?" ask Mother Fadia who has been sitting with Retno who is eating fruits, earlier.
Gadhing looks misbehaved because he came back with a tray that still contains fruits and yogurt.
"It's not good to bother them, Bun. Later," he said it was true.
Mother Fadia nodded in understanding. Retno thinks Gadhing is jealous.
Gadhing put the tray on the dining table, then sat down next to Retno. "Let's take a bribe" he said, making Mother Fadia smile.
Retno herself was happy because Gadhing remained attentive even though her husband's heart was not intact for her.
"Why daydream?" asked Gadhing when the piece of fruit in his hand was not also welcomed from earlier.
Retno was aghast for a moment, her eyes were against Gadhing's eyes, she immediately smiled with a small slab. She opened her mouth to receive the fruit from her husband.
Mother Fadia is still watching this couple. As a mother, of course know what Gadhing felt all along.
Mother Fadia got up and walked towards the guest room that had been reserved for her.
"Well, is it okay?" ask Retno. Although Gadhing remained painstakingly attentive, Retno was able to see from her husband's eye radiance implying a wound.
Gadhing glanced at Retno at a glance and tried to smile. "It's okay."
Retno nodded in understanding while suppressing her pain and jealousy. For him, most importantly Gadhing did not cross the line.

Inside Jimmy's room feels guilty for what he just did. "Sorry, my dear. Mas couldn't help himself," he said several times, really feeling guilty for not remembering if Nasya was pregnant young.
Nasya smiled as she raised the blanket. It is customary for the two after the completion of the union to take a bath together and rest without wearing clothes first.
"It's not wrong either. I can't do it every time I'm tempted. Get dressed, mas. Mommy is still downstairs" said Nasya who can always calm Jimmy down.
Jimmy nodded. He kissed his forehead and then Nasya's lips glimpsed, not daring to linger kiss his wife for fear of ending the union as before.
"Be down first, yes."
Jimmy got out of bed to walk in closet and put on some casual clothes. After he finished preparing, he kissed his forehead and repaired Nasya's blanket, then exited the room to the ground floor looking for the whereabouts of Mother Fadia.
While in the dining room, it was already in the field of dinner menu and Mother Fadia and Gadhing and Retno were waiting.
"Sorry to have made a long wait" Jimmy said, sitting his weight on the head chair.
Mother Fadia nodded in understanding. Moreover, seeing the appearance of Jimmy fresher with hair that has not dried perfectly.
"Mothers should eat first. Don't wait for us, "there's a bad taste in Jimmy's heart.
"That's okay, son. It is very rude that we eat before the host" said Mother Fadia.
Jimmy took a long breath. "Don't hesitate, Bun. This mansion belongs to Nasya, it means it has a mother as well. Then we'll just start eating, yeah."
Retno. "Where is it, mas?"
Jimmy took a quick glance. "Nasya is resting,-"
"I'm here, madam. Sorry late," cried Nasha down the stairs.
Jimmy flinched and reflexively stood up to his wife with wide strides. Undaunted by the others, he carried Nasya towards the dining table.
"Mas" Nasya's great-grandson wrapped his hands around Jimmy's neck.
Jimmy was silent, sitting Nasya when he arrived. He pinched his wife's cheek because he was feeling anxious. "Don't be stubborn. You're pregnant again," she insisted, causing Nasya's throbbing.
"I want to serve you a meal, ma'am."
"Mas can be alone, baby. You were tired from serving me earlier," said Jimmy involuntarily making Nasya glare while the others choked on their own saliva.
"Mas" said Nasya.
Jimmy chuckled at realizing his own mistake. "All right, sorry."
Nasya frowns but her nimble hands take dinner for Jimmy, then for him.
"Anything, sorry for tonight Nasya can't cook."
During her time as Jimmy's wife, Nasya always cooked for her husband.
"Don't do anything heavy, Shay. You're pregnant young."
Nasya nodded in reminder by Retno.
Nasya. "My stomach's nauseous look at that fish, mas."

Novi smiled happily as her dream of becoming the wife of Rispan finally materialized. Still with the same smile, he stroked his still flat stomach.
"Congratulations mbak," said Nasya who looks beautiful with a robe embroidered with the material of kaftan with hijab style Malaysia State.
"Thank you, Mom." Novi received a handshake with Nasya then both kissed the right and left cheeks. "Congratulations on pregnancy, mother."
Nasya smiled kindly. "You too."
Nasya was standing before Rispan. "Congratulations, sir."
"Don't look at my wife" chirped Jimmy right behind Nasya.
Rispan hurriedly lowered his head because he was reprimanded so. Maybe Nasya thinks there's nothing strange. However, both Jimmy, Novi, and Rispan know the meaning of Jimmy's reprimand.

The newlyweds have arrived at Rispan's apartment which they will occupy from now on. Both are in the room.
"We have to talk" said Rispan, making Novi straighten up the body that was about to lay down.
"Speak."
Rispan put a map of blank paper on Novi.
Novi frowned. "What do you mean, Ris?"
Rispan handed a ballpoint pen to Novi. "Write whatever rules you want, after that I will write the rules I want."
Novi raised one eyebrow. "Anything? as I like my heart?" his tan stared at Rispan's black bead.
Rispan nodded for sure.
Novi. "True, anything? can't be sorry."
Rispan. "Write it now or not at all."
Novi Manyun's lips then wrote the rules he wanted. It was rare to get this chance from Rispan.
With a smile Novi handed the map containing the rules of his.
**OUR WEDDING RULES
From Novi, Rispan's wife :
Always say I Love You every waking up and before going to bed

"Where? can, right?" tanya Novi made Rispan cleared his throat in response.
"Now, it's your turn to write down the rules. Don't be heavy, okay? I'm pregnant again" Novi said immediately made Rispan tick.
"That's your excuse," muttered Rispan making Novi chuckle because it was the truth.
Rispan wrote on the next blank sheet quickly.
"Have you?" novi asked because she knew Rispan had just written.
Rispan handed the map to Novi and received his wife. Novi froze with bulging eyes reading the rules from Rispan which he thought made him very happy.
THERE IS NO DIVORCE.
