I read the contents and my eyes warmed up reading Theo's name and then my name on the file. Finally, our Marriage Deed was published as well! We are the legal husband and wife in the eyes of Indonesian law. Just to take care of the wedding in the church.
But we need to save to be able to hold the event. My savings are not much and I don't want Dad or Papa to bear the cost. I'm sure both Father and Mother objected if our wedding reception was held simply.
We recommend that after the little one is big enough we hold the wedding and reception. I'm sure we'll need a lot of money for his birth. Hopefully I can give birth normally so that the expenditure is not much.
“I still can't believe this,” I said quietly. “I think your papa will do everything in his power to block the issuance of our marriage certificate.”
“Gue already said, I know his weakness.” She covered my cheek. “Gue instantly takes care of our new KTP and KK. So, we have our own family card with married status. No one else will be able to call you my mistress or infidelity.”
“No problem. They can call me whatever they want.” I put the envelope on the table, then turned to him. “Why didn't you show me that word yesterday?”
“We immediately attended the invitation in the afternoon, then you prefer to heat up the mothers by telling me to wipe your lips. On the way home, you fell asleep. When can we talk about this?” ask her with boredom.
I'm laughing a little. “I'm sorry. So, how do we celebrate this, my dear husband?”
The call felt better on my tongue. He was no longer my temporary husband for one year of our marriage certificate from Las Vegas. He's my rightful husband that no woman will ever be able to take from my side again.
“Of course by doing our favorite husband and wife activity.” He stood up, then took my hand.
“Where are we going?” many confused.
“Where else?” As soon as I stood up, he immediately carried my body. I screamed in surprise. “What do you not hear? We will celebrate by doing our favorite activity.”
“Let's lunch soon, Theo.”
“Gue has asked the waiter to drop off lunch, afternoon tea, and dinner to the room.” I round my eyes to hear it. “Oh, yes, dear. Is correct. We'll do it all day. You've been making me fast for a week. Time to open.”
“Theo, I won't be able to,” I said in disbelief.
“Lo can serve Venny, time can not serve me.”
Basic Theo is crazy. He really did. I wasn't allowed out of bed all Saturday. As a result, I was exhausted on Sunday. Luckily, we were able to worship at home without going to church. Maybe he's fresh, I'm out of steam.
But on Monday, my body and mind were very light. Nausea in the morning which is usually quite disturbing, I do not experience. I can also work well and concentrate. We are medicine for each other.
After work, I watched social media and saw my post on Friday liked and commented on by many people. Chika shows her reaction by uploading her romantic photo with husband. I'm-i'm right. It's the right way to get back at him.
The picture with Mr. Norman is not natural. His name is also set. Of course their interactions will never be the same as me and Theo who married out of love for each other. What caught my attention was the amount of reaction he got no more than me.
Brother Jericho told the name of the place where he met his friends the next day. It was our signal that Rahma would appear in the same place as him. I got tired of working from home, so I went to that place.
They booked a room, so we didn't mix with the other restaurant customers. I sat down by Big Brother's side with his other assistant. They are all really models judging from their lazy way of eating. Only me and Gino, Brother's assistant, are voracious.
“If you want to add, just take it.” Brother glanced at the abundant food in front of us. “Only we will eat with large portions. They're all scared. Don't worry, I paid.”
“Absolutely Brother is not afraid of fat eating this much?” I saw the plate.
“This is nothing. Occasionally eating a lot will not make the body suddenly stretched. After all, it's lunch not night. I still have a myriad of activities that require energy.” Brother Jericho put one piece of chicken breast on my plate. “Eat a lot.”
Everything they called I've heard, because the panel called me. Brother smiled meaningfully when his friend expressed his wish to be invited by the famous product. Brother is great. His talent reached the ears of people close to the famous product.
“Halo, all!” The door opened and Rahma came. “I have a gift for everyone!” He gave bag after bag of small shopping to all present. I'm not surprised when he doesn't give me one.
“Oh. I don't wear this perfume.” Brother gave his share to Gino. “Your Favorites.”
“This is for me? Really?” tanya Gino did not believe. Brother Jericho nodded.
I glanced at Rahma who was sitting in front of us. He closed his lips, annoyed to see that Big Brother did not accept the gift. Though other models look so happy to be given an expensive perfume gift. I told you, he needs me if he wants to get close to Brother.
After eating, my sister and I separated. He will meet with clients to discuss the preparation of a photo shoot with a magazine. I decided to wait for Theo to come home from work at a cafe not far from his office. I also want to work outside the home.
Just putting my phone on the table, it vibrated. I picked it up and smiled glancing at the name on its screen. “Halo, sa—” my greetings cheerfully.
“Back,” cut it without further ado. “Lo ask permission to go out to meet your boss, not relax in the cafe. Cook cooked food is much healthier.”
“You'll be home soon, so we can go home together.”
“What is the use of you who use a car, I use a motorcycle, if you have to wait for me to come home? I still have to check the reports from restaurants in America, so you go home. Don't argue anymore. If you do not turn back this second too, I tie you at home.”
Without waiting for a response from me, he ended our phone relationship. I pouted at the screen that turned dark. My ugly shadow that was frowning was clearly visible on the screen. What's the difference between going home now and later? In an hour, he'll be done working. A truly unromantic husband.
I raised my hand attracting the attention of the waiter in front of me. Rather than fighting vaguely with him, I better give up. Shame to ask the waiter to untie me tomorrow. He never posed an empty threat, so I'm sure he'll tie me up again if I don't follow his words.
“Please, pack my order earlier. Thank you,” I said to the waiter.
“Good, Ma'am. Please wait a minute.” The waiter left, so I put my phone and tablet in the bag. Only the work phone that did not stop vibrating remained in my grasp.
As soon as my order was delivered to the table, I stood up and walked towards the cashier. Daisy must have told Theo that I intended to go home. That annoying guy won't stop bothering my bodyguard until I get out of this cafe.
The cashier mentioned the amount of my bill, so I took out a red note from my wallet. I stretched out the money, but a hand preceded me. He held out money of the same nominal.
“Let me pay the bills of this beautiful lady,” said a man standing near me. He looked and smiled at me. “Do not refuse. Let's just say this is the beginning of our friendship.”
