I'm Pursuing Your Love

Sister-in-law

After it was late at night, Jessy and Nathan decided to go home. Because baby Al who has fallen asleep from earlier in his father's sling.

Then Raka also told Meili to rest, he knew if his wife was also tired.

Raka then carried her, as their room was on the second floor.

"Just start tomorrow our room moves on the first floor," Raka spoke as she held Meili.

"Hmm... !" sahut Meili's.

He felt his chest pounding. Moreover, hearing Raka's words about 'our room' was like a dream.

Until not long, Raka stopped in front of her room. "Please open the door."

"Huh... !" Meili who seems to be daydreaming.

"Open the door to her room, I can't open it."

"Oh, yes." Which Meili then opened.

Early entry Meili can already feel the fragrance of perfume commonly used by her husband, and it feels she will be comfortable in her new place.

Slowly Raka laid Meili down, in the bed she used to sleep on her own. But now there is a wife who will always accompany him.

"Honey, before going to bed take the medicine first." Anita came with a glass of water and medicine for her daughter-in-law.

Meili immediately drank it, it was actually a little unpleasant to her mother-in-law. Only then did he become his son-in-law but he was already troublesome.

"Thank you Ma, Meili's been a hassle." He returned the empty glass to Anita.

"Nothing is troublesome, you are also already Mama's daughter. And it's your job to take care of your child if it hurts." Implied sincerity in Anita's eyes. He really loved Meili no matter what.

Raka saw that, feeling that her world had grown perfect.

"Yes, you go to sleep first. It's late" Anita said before she left.

While Raka himself tidied up the blanket for his wife. "I stay a while is okay? Reza and Ariel are still downstairs."

"Yes, it's okay." While smiling.

"Yes, you slept first." Raka left a kiss on Meili's forehead before exiting the room.

Making Meili again in disbelief, her husband was indeed changed. He was getting more attentive without being asked, and that made him even happier.

In his sleep, Meili faintly heard someone talking. Until slowly she returned to her consciousness, and in a still slightly blurry view she saw apparently her husband who was talking over the phone.

"It's okay, fine then." Raka ended her phone call. When he was about to lay down his body, he saw his wife was already awake.

"Did I disturb your sleep?"

Meili shakes. "No, it's just that I woke up thirsty."

Raka immediately took the drinking water that was on the small table right beside her bed, then helped Meili to drink it.

"So Brother, thank you."

"Now sleep again" Raka also laid down her body.

"Hm... !"

She was able to fall asleep because there was no Raka beside her, and now her husband was lying right next to her. Even just a few feet away, of course this feels strange to him.

The same thing was felt by Raka, having a bedmate apparently made her awkward.

"Can't you sleep?" Raka looked at his wife. "Do you want me to make you some warm milk?" bargained for.

But Meili shook her head. "No, thank you."

"Ehmm, actually I can't sleep because I'm still adjusting" Meili said.

Raka looked at the face of his wife who was not looking at him.

"Sleeping with Big Brother is a new thing, so it still doesn't feel used to it." added Meili. He then looked at Raka and smiled. "What's sister too?"

Raka smiled thinly. "Sure, I feel the same way." He then placed his hand on his chest. "And here it thumped so fast."

Meili's cheeks meet red on her.

"Then let's try to learn to get used to it from now on" Raka drew closer to his wife. And put their hands together. If only Meili's circumstances allowed her to take Meili in his arms.

Geez, if this is not even able to sleep.

Sure enough, until a while passed Meili still could not sleep. She saw her husband slowly closing his eyes.

"Sister!" Call Meili. Her husband failed to sleep.

"Hm!"

"Who were you calling with last night?"

Raka immediately turned to Meili. "You hear that?"

Meili smiled stiffly then nodded. "Just a little."

"That's bang Dika."

"Bang Dika!" Meili only realized that he had not met his sister-in-law at all until now. "Oh my goodness I forgot, if until now have not met. Didn't you come home yesterday?"

"No, but he should have come home after a few days of our marriage. But because there was an incident when Dika did not come home. Papa's still here, so bang Dika's taking care of the company there."

Dika had already started to plunge in their family company, because the accident incident was delayed the King back there because it helped take care of Irfan's company. So inevitably Dika must remain there.

"Sorry," Meili felt bad.

Raka rubbed Meili's cheek. "There's nothing to forgive, because it's all a disaster."

Until now everyone still did not tell Meili about the cause of his accident, until Meili still considered it an ordinary accident.

"Maybe in a few weeks when Dika comes home, after he finishes his work. And he also sends greetings to you," he explained Raka.

"Wa'alaikum greetings," Meili replied with a smile.

"Yes, now we sleep. You shouldn't sleep the nights either."

"All right."
