Venus felt General Virendra was avoiding her. For a few days General Virendra would return to his room at midnight and go to work before sunrise.
General Virendra's behavior made Venus realize that her husband was evading. Venus couldn't do much because she knew General Virendra must have taken some time to calm down.
Aunt Martha who realized the behavior of the couple could only sigh tiredly. There are many trials they face.
"The general's still dodging?" ask Aunt Martha on a dreamy looking Venus.
"That's, Auntie. Venus did not know what to do," Venus replied softly.
"It's okay, talk about this slowly." Aunt Martha smiled warmly then hugged Venus tightly trying to calm the woman down.
"Yes, Venus will talk about this. It feels very uncomfortable protracted like this."
Aunt Martha nodded in agreement. It is true that this problem must be discussed immediately because it is not good to be allowed to drag on. Aunt Martha hoped the two could find a good way out without anyone getting hurt.

Venus accidentally went to bed to wait for General Virendra to return to the room. Tonight they have to solve their problems.
Not long before the door of the room opened and General Virendra entered still in his work clothes. The man immediately cleaned himself and changed his clothes without realizing that Venus was waiting in bed.
When General Virendra finished with all her activities, Venus immediately opened her voice so that her husband had Venus waiting for her.
"The water!" Calling Venus who was already standing behind General Virendra made the man turn his head in shock.
"You haven't slept?" general Virendra asked quite surprised to see Venus had not slept at this late hour.
"Venus is waiting for you, there's something we need to talk about." Venus said directly while leading General Virendra to sit on the bed.
Venus shook her head firmly, refusing to obey General Virendra's words.
"You avoid me Vir," Venus whispered softly.
The woman had a sad face. It feels really sad when a husband avoids because of a wife who is pregnant with their second child.
"Venus, I'm sorry I made you sad. I need time to make a decision, it's all too sudden and it makes me confused."
"Vir, there's nothing we should be afraid of. Venus knows it all feels like a sudden moment because you've been trying to keep me from getting pregnant again. Unfortunately, you forgot there was a God in charge of everything. Believe me, God knows what is best for each of His people. "
General Virendra bowed in lethargy. What Venus says is true, but the shadow of Venus leaving her continues to haunt General Virendra.
"I'm afraid you left me. You know this pregnancy is risky. What should I do, Venus? Tell me what should I do?"
"Life and death have been arranged by God even before we were born. There is nothing to be afraid of, let everything go according to what God has outlined. Believe that whatever happens next is the best for us. God knows what's good for us."
"After my mother, sister and father died I was afraid of losing again. It feels so painful if I have to lose for the umpteenth time. I don't know what to do, it all feels heavy."
Venus smiled to appease General Virendra, the woman was tight-lipped by the husband's warm body. Who is not afraid of losing? It seems that all the people in this world are afraid of losing. Venus has felt it and she certainly doesn't want to feel that pain anymore. However, every human being cannot oppose death. Like it not like, all is already the way that God girl for each of His people.
"Vir, just one Venus wish at the moment. Please let Venus conceive and give birth to our second child. Venus believes there is something beautiful that God has prepared for us."
Venus looked at General Virendra's eyes in the shade. Those beautiful blue eyes have always been able to make General Virendra fall in love.
The demand for Venus was simple, but still heavy for General Virendra. What should she do to make Venus happy without losing one of them? Wife or child who is a few weeks old.
