Juan And Mentari

J&M - Part 9

Next morning ….

Mentari was in the kitchen with her mother, Ratih. They are currently cooking for their morning menu.

"Son, how? Have you done your duty as a wife?" ask Ratih with both hands busy with knives and carrots.

"Why did you ask me about that?"

"It's okay. It's just that not all men will be patiently waiting for their first night" replied Ratih. "You must remember, son. You are now his wife, you are halal to touch. And if you refuse, then a thousand angels will come to curse you."

The mentor fell silent, he thought about his mother's words just now. She was already the legal wife of Iwan, so, she also had to be willing to serve him in bed. But, his heart could not yet fulfill this one obligation. Until this moment Juan's name is still very strong in his heart. Sometimes Mentari feels sorry for the decision he has made. If only, Juan would have explained to him earlier, maybe now they have become a happy couple. Rice has become porridge, decisions have been made, and marriages have taken place, so, inevitably, like not liking, he must be able to accept all that.

"Yes, Mom. Dance understood," Mentari replied a few seconds later.

"That's the temple lifted, son. Look almost at that charred!" tell Ratih.

Mentari immediately lifted the tempe that was on the pan in front of him.

"Don't you know your husband's favorite meal?" 

Mentari answered him with a slab.

"Favorite drink?"

Back Mentari shakes.

"Hobby?"

And again Mentari answered his mother's question with a sledgehammer.

"Know your husband, son. Find out what food and drink he likes. So, you can take your husband's heart with it."

"Unfortunately, I don't want to do that" Mentari said. 

"Sana, wake up your husband, take him to breakfast with us!" tell Ratih when the food they make is cooked.

"Good." Mantari washed her hands first before then doing the order of the mother.

"Mas, Mas Iwan. Wake up, Mas. Mom told us to have breakfast together!" call Mentari while gently patting the arm of Iwan, the foreign man who became her husband.

Not long after Iwan finally started to open his eyes.

"What time is this?" Iwan asked while rubbing his eyes.

"Nearly half seven, Mas. And mother told us to have breakfast" replied Mentari.

"Then I take a shower." Iwan got up from his bed and went straight into the bathroom.

"Mas, I'll wait at the dinner table."

"Hm, yes."

Mentari then woke up from his position. However, before he actually came out Iwan's device rang.

"Mas, your phone sounds," Mentari said. He stared at the name on the screen.

"Big Boss," muttered Mentari while reading the name listed there.

"Mas, the phone sounds." Once again Mentari told.

"Jawab only. If I have to wait a little later," replied Iwan from the bathroom.

"Is it really okay if I answer?" tanya Mentari. She knew the mobile phone was one of her husband's privacy objects and Mentari did not want to interfere with her husband's privacy.

"Yes, there's no answer" Iwan replied again. "Indeed from who?"

"From the Big Boss, Yes, I said yes," said Mentari. She also took the device that belonged to her husband. However, just as he pulls the green button up suddenly someone picks up the phone and it is Iwan.

"Let me alone" said Iwan with a towel wrapped around his body and in a condition that is still wet.

Mentari looked at Iwan for a moment. There was something that made him a big question mark in his heart, why until Iwan did not let him answer the phone. However, Mentari prefers to ignore it because it is not his business. He also came out of the room.

"I wait at the dinner table" said the woman with the status of Iwan's wife before breezing out of the room.
