Forced to Marry a Teacher

62. The Mother Who Di Missed

A warm and harmonious family, Astrid was very lucky to have such a family. Janus, as his son-in-law, was warmly welcomed by the family of his wife. An atmosphere that Janus had never felt before. Even the attention he had never felt, now Janus felt while at his home in-laws. Both Pratama and Maya, they give a treatment that makes Janus like his own son.

The actions of even the special attention given to her in-laws Janus never felt during her stay with her father. Every time he came home, Janus only received cold treatment from his father, even Janus only got a diatribe from his brother and from his mother. Janus was never treated warmly except by Baskara who as his grandfather. Another case when Janus was at the home of his parents-in-law, he was really treated like a child.

Her heart was touched when Maya helped pick up a plate of rice and side dishes for Janus. Maya's motherhood is what Janus longs for. Because after he lived in Indonesia with his father, Janus never once treated like a child by a mother. To make him think back to his memories with Kim Yu Na in Korea. The figure of the mother he deeply missed flashed vividly in his memory at this moment. To make her heart cry. He was silent, holding back his tears while looking down at the plate of food in front of him.

"Why haven't you eaten yet, is your food less interesting to eat?" ask Maya.

"No, this is very tempting," replied Janus who directly devoured the food provided by his father-in-law.

"Then spend it, then" said Maya smiling.

Janus nodded and ate the dish of food in front of him. While Astrid, he really enjoyed the cuisine of his mother that he had not felt for a long time.

"It's so delicious. While in the apartment I could only eat my cooking and Janus's sister. I really miss the taste that is made mamah," said Astrid who focused on listening to a plate of food.

"So Janus is good at cooking" Maya said.

"Yes, my brother Janus is very good at cooking. Even every time we eat, brother Janus cooks more than me. What's more every time he cooks, he always fascinates me" Astrid said.

Janus blushed in embarrassment at Astrid's praise of him. "Whenever I cook, you're always fascinated?" ask her with both cheeks flushed.

"Obviously, you're so handsome when you cook. What's more your face looks a lot like the man in the Korean drama, a husband who cooks well is very rare. Not only does every cooking fascinate me, but every moment you always fascinate me. I'm so lucky to have a husband like you" Astrid said.

Maya smiled at the praise her eldest son made to her daughter-in-law. "Basic bucin. Janus deserves to look like a man in a Korean drama, because he is of Korean descent." Maya shakes her head and looks at Janus. "Mommy's been crazy about you. So after Astrid graduates you should immediately give your grandchildren."

"Yes, it must be. Grandfather is very impatient to have a great-granddaughter from you," said Pratama.

Janus choked after hearing the request from his in-laws. Janus hurriedly picked up the glass filled with water beside his plate, then immediately gulped it down. "Wouldn't it be too soon if Astrid had to have children after graduation. I want Astrid to focus on continuing her educator."

"I'm fine if my education doesn't continue. I am tired of having to keep learning. What if after graduation I just work, or focus on taking care of the household only," Astrid said.

Janus shakes. "No, your future is long. You must continue your education at the university. You got married at a young age, and I don't want to destroy your future. You should enjoy your youth, not just take care of the household."

As Astrid's smile faded, she turned her eyes away from Janus. "I will continue my education. But if I get pregnant while I'm continuing my education, I can take my leave from college."

"Of course, but after giving birth you have to go back to college" said Janus.

...****************...

Astrid and Janus kiss the hands of Johan, Maya, and Pratama.

"I'm going home now" said Janus.

"She be careful not to speed her car, and please take care of Astrid as best as possible" Johan said.

"Of course, I will definitely take care of my daughter as best I can" Janus smiled.

After saying goodbye, Janus and Astrid immediately entered the car. When the car was driven by Janus, somehow Astrid's heart felt sad to look at her parents and grandfather who was standing looking at her away. Astrid is sad because she who is married can not meet her family every day.

She who every day must be in the school and take care of the house even have to take care of her husband there is no time to see his family. When else he would meet his parents, even on holidays Astrid had no time to meet his parents. What's more these days leading up to exams at school, where there's time Astrid travels. He must be busy studying ahead of the test that will be carried out next month.

Thirty minutes had Janus and Astrid gone from the Pratama house. They finally arrived in front of the apartment building. However, as Janus was about to take his car to the underground parking lot, a ringing call from his cell phone rang. To pick up the call on his phone Janus was forced to stop his car first.

"Who's calling?" ask Astrid.

"Wandi called me," replied Janus staring at the phone screen. Then immediately received a call from his friend.

A few minutes Janus called Wandi. Janus asks Astrid to go home first to his apartment. While he is, he will go to see his friend. Astrid had to go home alone.

However, just as he was about to enter the roof of the apartment, his steps suddenly came to a halt as his eyes were fixed on the guard post. He is shocked by the arrival of Vega and the Stars. Astrid stared far away at Vega and the Star who were chatting with a security guard who was guarding the post. Astrid was curious about what the two people were talking about that upset her while on the beach. Curious, Astrid waited for them to leave while watching her from afar.

And after they left, Astrid was immediately in a hurry to go to the security guard post.

"Sorry sir, were the two people talking about what you were talking about?" ask Astrid.

"So they asked, did Astrid and Janus live together in this apartment. I said yes stay together because Astrid mba her cousin mas Janus."

Then suddenly Titan came to Astrid. "They called me, too, to ask you about your relationship with Janus sir" said Titan.

"Why can they ask like that" Astrid said in surprise.

Titan pulled Astrid's arm and took her away from the security guard post. "They saw Mr. Janus' car coming out of the villa you entered with your fiancee. Then whose fiancee do you mean?" ask Titan.

"So they met me and brother Janus on the beach. But I covered Janus's face with a blanket. And I confess that Brother Janus is my fiancee" Astrid replied and sighed. "What if they find out about my relationship with Brother Janus" he said uneasily.

"Just relax, no one will know about your relationship with Janus except me and your two friends. If they ask about your relationship with Janus sir to the people in the apartment, everyone in the apartment will answer that you are his cousin Janus sir. Because everyone knows that you are not Janus' wife but his cousin" Titan calmed the restless Astrid.
