Deliberately, Ardhan linked their fingers while walking out of the lobby. Followed by Fikri who walks beside Ardhan.
Alea glanced at Almer who seemed to be out of breath. And then raised her hand that was tied to her husband's. As if showing a romance that will not be replaced by anyone.
Almer did not wince, he could only look at Alea without being able to reply, or just lips even though.
Alea and Ardhan journey from the lobby to the parking lot of his car, enough to make them the center of attention.
In addition to discovering new facts about who Alea really is, they are also envious of Ardhan who looks to treat Alea well. Seen from the way Ardhan did not let go of Alea's hand until he opened the car door for Alea.

"Mas, why did you show up at Sentani Group?" aela asked when Ardhan had driven.
"I know, Yank! why are you asking me to one day take you to Sentani Group!"
"Oh yeah? what try?"
Ardhan glanced at Alea at a glance, then smiled knots and refocused on the steering wheel in his hands.
"So you want to show some people there, right, if you're my wife?" reply Ardhan.
Instantly Alea raised both eyebrows and gulped his saliva with great difficulty. Resisting the shame, due to her husband who looks very sensitive. Alea threw her face to the window with a smile on her lips.
"Next month is Sentani Group's 35th anniversary. We'll come together, okay?"
"Take me?" ask Alea.
"Yes, Yank! take who else?"
"Never asked!" Alea Syndicate.
"Not never invite, but I never came, I guess"
"Heheh! yep! it's just the Galaxy Company's birthday you want to come!"
"Hemm.mangkanya, this time I will come!" ardhan rubbed the top of his wife's head.
"Buy me a new shirt, huh?" said Alea by putting a cute face on her husband.
Ardhan turned to look adorable Alea, and looked back like the old Alea.
"Buy whatever you want, Yank!" ardhan replied with a sweet smile. "Shirt, bags, shoes and whatever you want!"
"Make Andra too?"
"Yes, yes, Yank! his mother's time is doang!"
"Hehe! thank you, Papa!" said Alea landing a brief kiss on Ardhan's cheek.
Ardhan smiled happily, he again felt a warm sigh from the attitude of his wife who several months felt very cold.

🍄 Bend day . . .
Ardhan and Alea go to one of the hospitals in the Capital, to see the obstetrician who had handled it during Andra's pregnancy until birth.
"Congratulations to your second pregnancy, ma'am"
"So I'm really pregnant, doc?" aela looked at her doctor.
"Yes, Mrs Ardhan!"
The eyes of Ardhan and Alea were engaged in mutual glances. There was a happy light emanating from those two pairs of eyes. The happy hue did not escape Alea's pretty face and Ardhan's handsome face.
It seems like Dasim's demon mission to make Ardhan and Alea's household divorced has failed. They are back to a happy and perfect life.
The presence of a growing fetus in Alea's womb will start the next good days.

🍄 One month later . . .
The hair in the bun is neat, and a little hair is made dangling curly next to the right and left temples.
Added a pair of light grey high heels from one of the leading brands for the middle class and above wrapped in Alea smooth legs.
And the small-sized coach is in her left hand, to perfect the performance of Mrs Ardhan at the Sentani Group celebration tonight.
"Perfect!" puji Ardhan stared fixedly at his beautiful wife who was smiling sweetly in front of the mirror.
While Ardhan himself wears a color tuxedo in harmony with Alea. Because he's a VIP guest on the night of Sentani Group's party.
Andra, the little boy did not escape the tuxedo couple with the Papa. Accompanied by tiny white shoes that are ready to accompany his steps throughout the night.
They depart from the house just as the clock shows seven o'clock in the evening. Heading to the ballroom of the five-star hotel that became the place in his party.
The little family set foot to enter the hotel at exactly 8 p.m. With a VIP invitation in Alea's right hand. Andra was on Papa's left arm.
The atmosphere outside the hotel, there are still many invited guests from various circles who have just arrived. Like business associates, employees may also be special guests. And all wear formal clothes that are charming according to their respective tastes, because there is no dress code for the event.
Several pairs of eyes seemed to notice the presence of Ardhan and Alea. To be sure they are Sentani Group employees, who may have known Alea.
Alea handed her invitation to the committee who served at the door. Someone dressed in batik with a necklace with the inscription of the committee directed Ardhan to go to a large round table that has been prepared for guests from the Galaxy Company.
Ardhan, Alea and Andra passed through a red carpet that would deliver them to their table.
"Hi!" greet Alea patted the small shoulder of Vania who was sitting with some OG at the back table.
"Alea!" pekik Vania who immediately stood up from her seat and shook hands with Alea and also Ardhan. Uh! it's amazing to be able to shake hands with the company's most in-demand guests.
"It's so pretty of you, Alea!" puji Vania looked at Alea from toe to toe in admiration. Looks much more elegant and classy, compared to when wearing the same uniform with him.
[Of course, dear Vania!]
"It's a custom!" alea replied casually, "what are you doing, Van?"
"Good, Al!" answer Vania. "You?"
"Well, Van!" Alea smiled at Vania. "Eh Van, I'm going straight there huh?" pamit Alea's.
"Yes, Al!" answer Vania.
Alea again followed Ardhan's steps, and then passed Almer and Gita's table carrying her husband.
"Alea!" greet Gita with a sweet smile.
"Eh, Ma'am Gita!" Alea waved her hand slowly and smiled sweetly to return Gita's greeting.
Then turn to glance at Almer who looks like a living corpse. Staring at Alea with a pale face, and mixed in misbehavior.
Alea raised the corner of her lips. And pressed her hand that was round on her husband's arm. And walked back as Ardhan hinted to get back on his feet.
"Dispose of your spite, Mer!" said Gita who can still be heard by Alea.
This time around, Alea deliberately did her best body movements. He knew that Almer was still staring at him in the back.
I don't mean to be arrogant, God. I just want to silence the mouth of one of Your creatures.
Alea said in his heart.
Ardhan and Alea sat sweetly in her chair, one of the VIP tables, which not all invited guests could occupy in the row.
Almer's desk was quite far behind Alea's desk. But Almer's eyes seem difficult to escape the charm of Alea tonight.
Shame, maybe that's the only thing Almer feels right now.
