Lovely Love

Glory Love

Gerdy is so nervous.

The older the content of Nadine is increasingly not at home living in Bandung, and the more often his wife advises.

"Your lecture is abandoned later" Nadine said whenever she saw her husband's arrival. "Don't until you fail to win the title."

Nadine was so eager to finish her studies, because being a scholar was her goal since childhood. The ideals are now fading with the growth of his wife's womb.

"I don't know what that ideal still wants to achieve" lamented Gerdy blandly. "Something makes me lose my best path."

"You mustn't lose motivation," Nadine softly rebuked. "Never till I regret having conceived your child. I don't want you to fail because my husband's dream is my dream."

Nadine fully supports her husband to become a scholar, because that is where their future lies, as well as the antidote to the wrath of her parents, perhaps.

Nadine sacrificed her own life to achieve that hope. She did not demand her husband to live in a luxurious house, nor abort the womb. He wants to take the thorny bridge.

Gerdy felt his conscience out. He could not take his wife's sacrifice for granted. The responsibility is not just to fulfill their dreams. He has a mind load that determines the continuity of his studies.

Now Nadine is still able to survive. He had not found any significant obstacles. What about after the baby was born?

Of course he can't work. He has to take care of the baby. Her husband's income was not enough to meet their needs. Where did he cover up the lack? Has it reached his mind?

"I can take care of myself" said Nadine. "You take care of your college."

"How do you support your baby?"

"With my husband's salary."

"My salary is not enough."

"I've repeatedly said don't measure up to your life" Nadine said patiently. "You have to get used to the lives of those around you. We have lived well. You don't hear the neighbors talk? They think we're crazy rich."

"Their standards."

"You want to use your family's standards? You're a scholar I'm not sure you can achieve. I beg you to get used to life by not looking at your family life. I'm afraid you're depressed that your parents found out about our marriage all of a sudden and all the facilities were taken out. You have to get used to measuring life by the salary earned."

Gerdy is not ready to suffer. He was used to living in luxury and living it with ease. Living in this house is a disaster. The second-hand warehouse in his house is better.

Gerdy must earn a large income so that his life does not decline. He had to occupy a top management position to maintain his level of life. Of course it was very difficult and it took a long time. 

Aunt Marliana has a discourse to bestow confidence in him that Bimo is considered not ready to be the highest leader in the office. But he doesn't dream of taking the CEO position at the expense of his best friend.

Nadine is right, the only way Gerdy has to lower the level of life.

Of course not now. Abi and Umi must be suspicious and will not let their children live frugally because the money is increasingly piled up in the bank. For who?

They also do not allow their children to find work outside. Managing the plantation well is a guarantee of a glorious future. 

The situation so turned around with the presence of Nadine in his life. He lost the opportunity to continue the family business and must be ready to live like most people.

"I'm sorry that my presence has cost you your luxurious life" Nadine said. "If you are not ready, then the choice is in your hands."

"My choice is clear" said Gerdy. "I'm willing to lose my fancy life. So don't tell me to leave."

"I didn't tell you to leave. I just don't want my husband to lose everything for me."

"I didn't lose everything. I have you and my son. So from tomorrow don't serve my food. I want to enjoy your meal. But I stick with my life when I'm home because my parents hate to hear the word sparing. They have spent money on various activities, but still more and more in the bank."

"I'm not asking you to try my food. I have money to serve my husband's favorite cuisine."

Gerdy looked at his wife with a ray of protest. "You said I had to learn to live like most people, how the hell?"

Nadine kissed her husband's face with affection. "I'm asking you to start getting used to life by not looking at your family life. My husband's a smart man, time can't tell the difference?"

"I can't tell the difference because I see nothing in this house, other than the majesty of your love."

Nadine smiled sweetly. "I want you to see that forever. So when I'm old don't see white hair, look at my love."

"You polish your hair if you don't want to look white" Gerdy joked as he got out of bed. "I'm tired of it. My stomach is hungry."

Nadine who accompanied her husband to rest rose up. They walked outside the room.

"I've prepared yellowfin tuna" said Nadine.

"Give it to Mimin" said Gerdy. "I want to eat your favorite gourami."

"Then love my baby. Occasionally a classy dish. Don't be given cheap food, you don't worry about his life being cheap?'

"Gurami is already fancy."

"You think."

"According to the neighbors."

"The neighbors saw my car. If the car was taken by my parents, then I only have a motor."

"At my job there's a car loan."

"I don't usually credit. I'll raise money to buy a car that's their class."

"I've applied for credit and it's been approved by the employer."

"You guys? Ask for flowers later."

"What flowers?"

"The flower of your love, the time of the Flower of Lestari Love?"

"Solicit my body?"

"Again trending right reply like that?"

"My boss is a good woman."

"Not a guarantee."

Nadine slips. "You mean...?"

"Attent." Gerdy just remembered something. "If you take credit, you don't quit your job after your baby is born?"

"You want me to quit my job?"

"I want you to feel comfortable. I don't mind if work makes you comfortable. But what about your baby?"

"There's babysitting near my office."

Gerdy looks unhappy. "You sacrificed everything to preserve the womb. After the baby comes out, you leave it to someone else to take care of it. Now you leave it to someone else, have the baby taken from your stomach."

"If left in a distant house, what if you need ASI?"

"It can be stored in the refrigerator."

"I have to go back and forth to the house if I want to see your son. Repot."

Gerdy pensive. He suddenly remembered something that had become his heart.

"My husband is talking about why?" asked Nadine softly.

"I was thinking. If I'm graduating, you're taking your baby to college."

"I'm not coming."

"I want you to come."

"You're not ashamed of your wife being yelled at by your parents in front of the graduates? I am ready to be ashamed for my husband. But I don't want my husband to be embarrassed because of me. I don't think graduation day is a good time to bring your son."

"I'm not sure there's a good time to bring my wife and children in front of my parents."

"At least I'm sure I'm wading through life together if you're already a scholar, even if there's no chance of prostrating as a son-in-law."

"I'd better be honest with my parents before the baby is born."

"I'm asking you not to" prevent Nadine with a grim face. "I'm not ready to lose you."

"Until the sky collapses you will not lose me. I just need certainty."

Gerdy does not want to be hit by prolonged anxiety. His mind's fucked up. He must be frank no matter how angry his parents are.

Gerdy is more devastating if they report after the baby is born, whenever the time is.
