Throughout the course of our lives together these few months, I never once heard a complaint or a plea from Bray. I am more careless and complain because I am not ready to accept the consequences of living in a household. Pregnancy almost made me depressed. I have to admit Bray has extra patience with the wave of my feelings that oscillate, move up and down, right-left, front-back or spin indeterminate direction. Patience is what makes me love him more and believe with his wise attitude our household will last.
Today I just realized that all this time Bray sacrificed his family business to accompany me. After we got married this time we took time to Jakarta. So happy to be able to quickly get a grandchild, my father-in-law was very understanding of the condition of my early pregnancy that made us unable to visit him. Instead we often reported asking papa's situation via video call. In addition to the parents, Bray has also neglected business affairs by giving full management to professional management.
"The company's condition is now in chaos, dear. There are a lot of things I have to accomplish and cannot delegate to others. We're gonna have to stay here longer."
I immediately scowled. My heart immediately refused. "I can wait in Makassar?" I tried to negotiate. That incident scared me. Especially if Miss Fara told Maudy my whereabouts here. It's not impossible that his aunt and nephew will hit me and attack me.
"We're husband and wife, honey. I want us to keep together. It's hard to be happy we're together. Only together can I be sure that you, me and our baby are okay. If the family condition is good, work can be calmer and business is finished quickly."
"But the day after mama and grandma had planned to make a big study for my 4 months of pregnancy."
"I'll take you to Makassar. But finished the event we will return together again to Jakarta until the situation here can run normally. Poor papa. He can't handle the company."
I also felt sorry for my sickly father-in-law and had to live alone. But ...
"The company's general manager has decided to step down. Can't be persuaded anymore. He was already disappointed with the company's situation and got a better place in another company. It took a long time to recruit a formidable and trustworthy management to manage this company. While waiting for the new manager's fit and proper general test process, I had to take over management. Can't not."
I listened to Bray's explanation. It's a wedding risk I don't want. Bray has a big responsibility here, in a company that's mostly family owned. I don't like living in this big city. I'm not used to the hustle and bustle of the city never taking a break from activity. Just look tired. How to live it. Moreover, having to often meet strange people like magicians who have never known me but have shown anger and resentment to me. Not to mention that his nephew is coming to attack me. Maudy still feels like I've taken her fiance. My position is weak. Even though I didn't make a mistake, I couldn't be confused because Bray had become my husband.
"I don't feel right here." I said half whining about how I felt.
Bray's quiet. Confused about choosing the right word to persuade. I understand the dilemma he has. But in this case I don't want to give up. I deserve to be happy. I don't want my baby to be depressed because her mother has to do what she doesn't like. In a situation like this I have no problem having to part temporarily. No matter how much I love Bray, I still love this baby more.
"I want to stay a while with my family. Makassar is safer and more comfortable for me. There was a grandmother and family who loved me. We can often talk about video calls. A day can be 10 times." I said with a smile and tilted my head.
"Are you sure you're gonna be okay?"
"Related."
"Aren't you going to get upset or jealous?"
"Definitely kangen and jealous dong. But it can be treated with 10 video calls per day. If necessary Mas I pair chips that are a combination of CCTV functions with GPS tracker so I can monitor where and who."
"Aren't we angry because we're not on vacation?"
"Who wants to take a vacation, Bray. From childhood I never vacationed and did not want to vacation except to go to the forest." I said.
My life being born as an outback girl was indeed too static. Never had a grandiose desire. Enough to enjoy and thank the gift of nature alone I feel happy. Peace and peace are the most important things to me. Although hard to hold the principle, I was at least disputing. My resistance is usually only in the form of withdrawing, not by attacking the opponent. Bray says, I'm too plegmatic.
Bray smiled wryly. "Yes. I'm the one who's disappointed. My initial intention was to take a vacation. It turns out that even got here forced to work."
I feel sorry for my husband. I boldly gave him a brief kiss on his lips.
"Mas tired?"
"Very." she replied as she returned my kiss with a warmer, demanding kiss.
Being the only child of a great entrepreneur is not as easy as the shadow of a person. The audience thinks being a child of entrepreneurs is delicious. His work is just a foot barge enjoying the property whose benefits are like a spring that flows continuously until it is not eaten up seven derivatives. They don't know the fact that Bray has to work hard all the time. Can't just tell and show people to follow his orders. It is not easy to entrust something crucial to others. The responsibility is very large regarding the survival of the company and thousands of employees who rely on income from its business.
"Don't push yourself beyond your means, Mas. Choose which is more priority to pursue. Sell some shares of the company so as not to be too bothered. The money could probably be saved for papa's living expenses."
Bray smiled broadly, "Your idea can be too."
I got blushed. That idea just flashed through my brain. The idea was driven by my reluctance to stay longer in this polluted city. I was selfish, wanting to take Bray to stay with me to live on the edge of the Lolobata forest.
"I'll discuss this idea equally. I think I've caught your plegmatic attitude. Lazy continued to quarrel with the ex-wife papa whose brain is just an ounce. Don't understand anything but pretentious to chat. Because he's my flagship GM resigned."
Is correct. It's better to avoid stupid people who are pretentious. He is not aware that he is just a parasite. Fighting him would only waste energy. After all, our lives have been more than enough just to rely on profits in the mining business alone. Bankruptcy or advancing companies here are not important to our little family.
"But selling those shares still takes time, honey. Find investors who want to buy shares is like looking for a mate. It's not as easy as selling fried food on the side of the road."
I smile. Shares are equated with fried foods. Just-there's. I've heard of people who fry certain issues to influence the market's perception of stock prices. I think Bray needs to do that so that the shares that will be sold are priced well.
The vow. Another thing that made me reluctant to stay here was because I didn't want to meet my uncle's wife. Moreover, Aunt Marlina is friends with Miss Fara. Those two greedy women might hurt me. I don't want to meet or deal with anyone who's thought to be the mastermind of the baba murders. Better to think you've never known. I don't want to do evil to take revenge. But in my heart I am still waiting for a time when God will show bad karma for his evil deeds to my family. Such is the form of vengeance in my heart and I pass on that hope over and over again to the All-Wise Lord.
