"Hi Sonia's. Call the name pa-pa. Now you're my brother-in-law, anyway" Jimmy replied to Sonia's hand.
"It's not good, brother, I'm still the same age as Safa," declined Sonia softly.
"Well, then" Jimmy finally relented.
"That's my wife Bro, courtesy to her is paramount," Sean said proudly.
"Curtain, arrogant Lo," Jimmy sneered.
"Should dong, have a wife this good," replied Sean then embrace Sonia's shoulder.
"Mas," reproved Sonia softly feeling awkward.
"Hahaha, our glacier seems to have melted away a bit now Dad," Jimmy continued with a light laugh.
"Yes, you're right Jim," replied Jery.
Then they laughed together. Sean and Sonia chat for a moment with Jery and Jimmy. After that Sean and Sonia also met the employees at Sean's company who were also invited to the event.
The employees also congratulated Sean and Sonia. They all never thought that Sonia was the wife of their CEO.
"Congratulations Mr. Sean and also ...," Azril stopped his congratulations, clamping his chin with his thumb and the middle of his index finger bent, as if thinking aloud. "Who do you call her, Ana's mother or Sonia's mother?" azril asked.
"Both are my names, sir, so you can call Ana or Sonia. But the front does not need to be added by mother," replied Sonia ended the request as well.
"It can't be dong Bu, mother is now already our boss's wife," declined Billa.
"Udah darling. Just a formality, let them call you mother" said Sean cut Sonia's words.
"But not very good. We usually work together, talk, and joke together every day. Cook now call it so stiff," lamented Sonia.
"How do you want it, baby?" asked Sean softly.
"It's a habit. Don't be so formal" Sonia's pinta.
Azril and the other employees who heard Sonia's complaint to Sean gave a faint smile. Just this time they saw the spoiled side of Sonia and also the soft side of their boss who was usually so cold and firm. In their hearts they were all grateful for the happiness that Sean and Sonia now have.
"Yes, that's it. You all heard yes, you guys I allow to be casual and not have to be too formal to my wife" Sean said in the end.
"Well sir," Azril and the others replied.
"Please Mas" said Sonia as well.
They all ended up talking and joking together. From a table not far away from the group of employees and also Sean and Sonia, Suci smiled to see the happiness that was clearly visible on the face of his eldest daughter.
"Sacred Brother," called Sheila who had just sat herself in the chair next to the Sacred.
"Eh, Sister Sheila," replied Sacred who immediately turned her attention to Sheila.
"Again see what Ma'am? How come smile yourself" Sheila asked.
"No, no, Ma'am. Just look at Sonia again," replied the Holy One.
"What happened to Sonia, Ma'am?" ask Sheila again.
"Mbak did not expect to see Sonia laughing happily like that again," Suci replied with a smile and turned her eyes back to Sonia who was laughing with her division friends first.
Sheila looked at Sonia, then smiled with Suci.
"Sonia deserve to be happy like that" Sheila said.
"Thank you very much, Ma'am. Because Sean and all of you have given this happiness back to Sonia, as well as us" said the Holy One with Sheila's hand.
"Sacred Boy said what the hell. I told you, Mom, no need to thank you, we are all one family now. In fact, it should be us who say thank you, because Sonia has brought so much happiness to Sean, Safa, and all of us" Sheila replied.
The two then both smiled.
"Bun, let's take a family photo. Come on, Holy Mother, let's take a family photo together," Steven who just came.
"Oh, okay Dad. Come Ma'am," Sheila replied and then invited Saints to stand together.
The three of them also walked to the photo spot that had been provided. Sean, Sonia, Safa, Adrian, Sendy, and Dennis all seem to have gathered there.
"Shafiq where is Yah?" sheila asked after not seeing Shafiq among all of them.
"Hmm, I don't know, Bun" Steven replied.
"Syafiq where is Yan?" sheila asked Adrian.
"So the same Alvin, Bun. But keep saying leave, he said there is a sudden business that is very important, that is," replied Adrian.
"Haish, this kid. The numbers are mulu deh, wonder Mother," complained Sheila.
"Yes, Bun, as was the case before" said Steven to calm his wife.
Sheila agreed too. They then took several photos together as a memento. Even the nine friends also took photos with their families. Then they all took photos together. Full of camera memory of the photographer with photos that contain all the fanfare of the big family.
Steven grabbed Sheila by the waist and then kissed her cheek full of affection.
"Father was so happy Bun saw everyone laughing and happy like that" Steven said with a smile looking at his friends and their children who were joking and laughing together.
"Mother is also very happy. May our happiness last forever Well," do'a Sheila.
"Aamiin Bun's. And hopefully our happiness will also soon be complete with the presence of our grandchildren later yes Bun," do'a Steven anyway.
"Aamiin Well, hopefully hastened yes," Sheila also guaranteed her husband's do'a.
