Marry Me, Mr. Lecturer

Expectations are too high

"Where can night-night kites be?" chirps Niki tease.

"Oh, this is the child told you too." Maura nudged Niki's ears gnashed. While dressing Niki, Maura gives a message and tips ala himself how to make a man curious and more in love.

"Surely succeed?"

"The magazine I read yesterday is like that."

"Yeee, kirain has tried."

"Udah, run first." Maura pushed Niki out of the room.

"Truck they're out. Ayooo bidadari-bidadariiii have met yet selendangaaa, hunting down can not start eating nih waituin you guys." William Maura's brother exclaimed from under the stairs.

Farel's head looked up, he had never seen Niki dress up like this. His little wife only wears lipgloss and powder every day if she goes to college or will walk with her friends. But tonight there was a slight color on his cheeks and eyelids, making Farel even more anxious.

"Let's eat first." Mama Maura preceded the others to the dining table. Deftly, the three-child woman helped her domestic worker arrange the dishes and serve the menu on the table.

"You to the salon?" whispered Farel while holding the edge of his hair coiled.

"Ga, it's in the same blow as Maura, '" Niki said as she pulled her hair from Farel's hand. There was nothing else Farel said, but his eyes were hard to switch from Niki's face.

Maura, who was sitting before the young couple, could see the whole thing. He teases Niki with his eyes.

"Farel, you said you were married to Niki for about six months, right?" ask Papa Maura.

"True, Om," said Farel. The big man did look relaxed and uncaring, but his eyes were piercing. When talking earlier, Papa Maura seemed not to listen but the questions and chirps always make Farel die of lice to answer.

"No sign of pregnancy yet, Niki?" Papa Maura's question turned towards his wife.

"Not yet, Om."

"Well, it's natural that a married woman is pregnant and has children."

"We decided we didn't want to have children yet, wait for Niki to finish college. After all, we have not held a reception, worried that Niki suddenly had a stomach contents as a gossip material and did not concentrate on college," said Farel. Niki glanced in annoyance, since when was she asked for an opinion by her husband?

"So you're delaying having children? Wearing what? A contraception? look, Farel, Niki if you are married it is better not to delay pregnancy. Many stories of young couples like you postpone having children because they want to date first, he said, but once they seriously want to have children and remove all contraceptives, the children who are waiting are not there. That is better not to delay the windfall. If you don't want to have children now, why get married fast. If it's about the reception, yes immediately hold dong. How much, Om who charges it all," said Papa Maura anxious.

"It's not so, Om." Farel began to fidget under the gaze of the many pairs of eyes that were waiting for his answer.

"I want to have a child, Om. We never put off, didn't we."

"That was your husband who said it himself."

"I mean Mas Farel that, if I get pregnant hopefully give birth after graduation let the danger fit." Niki mediates, although the answer sounds out of sync with Papa Maura's question.

"Ah, that was a---"

"Udah, Niki's right, you spend the meal first." Mama Maura cut while putting a lot of side dishes on her husband's plate. Mama Maura knew that if her husband felt something strange would definitely be pursued until he got a satisfactory answer.

"It's also a word, Om you. Have a child do not delay, it is the same as delaying the windfall." Mama Maura.

"Well, we never delay let alone use contraception, which there is even hard work every night, right 'kan Mas." Niki glanced spoiled towards Farel who was flushing his face.

"Duh, understanding dong, Nik is the same we-we are single. Look, Sister Willi, her hair is already there a white candidate yet to be seen" said Maura.

"Udah move on, weeek!"

"Hey, you guys aren't shy about getting big still fighting, there's a guest loh here." Papa Maura looked at his two children sharply.

Niki noticed the way Mama and Mama Maura talked, there was not the slightest bit of hate or disappointment shown by Mama Maura. Likewise, when talking to his father, they were originally a couple of husband and wife no longer have awkwardness. They acted like brother and sister, just as he had known all along before he understood the true story.

Will he and Marisa be as familiar as Mama Maura?

The tense dinner for Farel was finally over. They immediately say goodbye to go home, because it was late and too because talking at the dinner table.

"Niki, come on in." Papa opens the car door and calls his daughter who is still joking with Maura.

"I went home the same, Mas Farel."

"Loh, you said you wanted to stay home tonight."

"Ga so, Pa, I'm the same Mas Farel." Niki walked up to her husband who was already on the motorbike.

"But I got on Nik's bike, didn't bring more helmets."

"I exist" chimpanzees Maura fast. He immediately ran into the house and brought a helmet and jacket for Niki.

"Yes, be careful on the road. Don't speed it up." Papa Niki looked at his daughter with a heavy heart.

Niki immediately put on the helmet and jacket Maura gave her and immediately sat down behind Farel. The motor sport seat of her lecturer, made Niki's body inevitably stuck on her husband's back.

"Can I hold it?" ask Niki.

"Yes hold it if you are afraid of falling," said Farel with a throbbing chest. Niki's hands were not circular yet, she could already feel something chewy on her back.

His hope Niki hugged his waist tight turned out to be too high, his little wife only held the tip of his jacket. A cold night wind slipped in between Farel's unkempt jacket.

"Cold?" farel asked, he hoped Niki answered yes like a lover in general. Then he will say sit more tightly to make it warmer.

"Okay," said Niki flat. The answer he had prepared was in vain.

Farel increased the speed of the motor. Sometimes he overtakes several vehicles, so the motor is sometimes tilted to the right and left. The woman behind him remained silent in no reaction. She imagined Niki would pinch her waist or pamper her back, but again it was just empty hope. His little wife was only getting tighter at the end of her jacket.

"Still hungry?" Farel asked again as he crossed the row of street vendors.

"The one."

Farel sighed in annoyance, he did not want to get home quickly. The moment of riding the bike both of these are not necessarily happening again. He felt young again, let alone there was a female student age in his jolts.

"I'm hungry, we'll eat here." Without approval, Farel stopped his motorbike near the cart of the satay seller.
