My Cruel Husband's

Surprise in the middle of the night

"This I've already got. Want me a bribe?"

"Yes" Auristella replied, nodding. Andrean sat next to baby chair Auristella. Auristella wanted to be fed but she grabbed her own spoon.

"So you want to eat by yourself?"

"Snake!"

"Yes, get the spoon,"

He obeyed his brother's words. The boy handed the little pink spoon to the elder brother.

Lovi, his grandfather, and grandmother saw Auristella's behavior while holding back a smile. Andrean was completely calm facing his sister. Although impressed cold, but he is still a good brother and attention.

"Mom, add the lobster,"

"Wow do you like it?"

"Yes, good."

"Don't eat lobster in a long time?"

"Yes, I've missed lobster,"

Lovi immediately took the lobster for his second child who was missing the lobster. "You're big,"

Lovi obeyed his son. Adrian turned his head to the younger brother who was enjoying his meal. When offered lobster meat, he shook his head.

"That's my lobster, Mom."

"Yes, but Auris won't,"

"Mommy offered my lobster to Auris,"

"But he also does not want to, Adrian." said Lovi with anxiety. He did offer Adrian's lobster to Auristella but in fact Auristella shook her head.

Andrean greeted his sister with such attention. His sister chewed long enough because he while playing the spoon he asked earlier to be used as a toy.

While they are having dinner, Devan is busy exploring his wife's cell phone and finds a picture of him with Lianne. But Lovi didn't discuss it at all. Lovi may have deliberately waited for her to tell herself who Lianne was until she did not awkwardly wipe Lianne's head.

"There's an injection of funds from this company,"

Arnold looked at the documents shown by his secretary. He smiled slanted. Little by little there are companies that want to be the support. And it can help him get out of the trap of Rigana or commonly called Gana, the owner of a sharp weapons and drugs company.

"Roman...Rigana, you think I can always be your slave?" arnold smiled obliquely.

"This company won the tender at the time, right?"

"Yes, Sir."

"Wow, the one I consider small turns out to be reliable. All right, you can get back to work,"

Arnold doesn't know that Devan has started to show his fangs. A good company to provide assistance to Arnold's company is a company owned by Devan which is considered worthless because it is still a company that is not too big.

It only took five minutes of information about the success of Arnold's company in attracting other companies to give an injection of funds, up to Rigana's ear.

"Arnold, don't easily believe in the good of a company,"

"You mean?"

"Yes, he could have turned around wanting to take advantage of or even destroy you,"

"I know what to do, Gana. You don't have to worry,"

Without being told by Rigana, Arnold understood that he had to find out first about the company. Whether it could be his friend or even potentially stab him.

"Lov, you don't want to ask me anything?"

"Hmm? nope,"

"Related?"

Lovi patted slowly on Auristella's back which she was hugging. The boy was asleep but not very well. While his two brothers had already gone to dreamland first.

"Someone sent you a photo. Don't want to ask about that?"

Lovi squinted for a moment. He recalled the message in the form of an image that had been sent by an unknown number.

"Oh that photo. The man in the picture is you?"

Devan smiled at his wife's question. This is what he wanted. If Lovi did not ask, he felt unloved by Lovi because Lovi did not feel jealous at all.

"Yes,"

Lovi nodded and Devan waited for another question but did not also come out of Lovi's mouth. He finally chose to explain.

"The girl's name is Lianne. He was my one night stand friend once,"

"Wow," Lovi flabbergasted with her mouth slightly open. Seeing this, her husband chuckled.

"Actually she and I met when we were on holiday with the family back then, Lov."

"Why is the story now?"

"I thought, Lianne and I won't see each other again after that. I saw him again in the hospital. She's sick with leukemia and the kid in the picture is her son Angel,"

"Where's husband?"

"Go leave him after he finds out he's sick,"

"Oh my God, how come."

Having to think about the happiness of children and also diseases is a heavy thing according to Lovi. Moreover, Lianne lost one of the people who should have given her support.

Seeing his wife's sad look, Devan immediately rubbed her. "Oh, don't be sad. We're down now preparing a birthday cake for Andrean and Adrian,"

Lovi turned her attention to her two sleeping twins. He nodded and followed Devan's steps to go down, preparing to give a surprise because soon the day had changed.

"Wow Grandpa woke up again?"

Lovi and Devan find Raihan, Rena, and Senata at the dinner table.

"Actually I didn't sleep. Just go inside the room waiting for those who are sleeping," Raihan replied as he chuckled. Both of his grandchildren played with him. But he said he wanted to sleep first on both of them. Andrean and Adrian let his grandfather into the room although a little sad because their game was not finished but Raihan was asleep.

Lovi took out the birthday cake she bought from the box, then looked at her with a smile.

"Not yet 12 p.m,"

"Yes, five minutes to go, baby." said Lovi after Devan spoke like that. "I'd like some coffee, like,"

Devan looked at his wife with a strange look. "Don't you don't drink coffee,"

"But want. Sometimes it can't be?"

"Don't, Lov. If you rarely rest during the day, if you drink coffee at night you will find it difficult to sleep. When is the rest?"

Devan gives understanding to Lovi while rubbing the head of the wife. He also kissed Lovi's cheek which was seriously lighting a fire in the candle on the cake.

Seeing the intimacy of the two of them, Rena "Please understand her not to make out in front of parents. Because it can make us forget the age,"

"Yes, let alone me,"

"May catch well the code from Lucas, Senata."

Lucas didn't throw any code. This time he focused on illness and how to survive without Devan constantly helping him.

Senata glanced at Rena who chuckled amusedly. Before long Raihan said, "Yes, after all you are not officially separated,"

Devan and Lovi both steal a look at Senata. They've never discussed this before. They did know what the real conditions of Senata and Lucas were like.

"I wish once in a while we could double date, Senata."

"Ah Rena, don't talk like that,"

"Let me tell Dad, Ma so he can go after Mama again,"

Devan spoke with a serious tone. It has already been discussed, it is better to continue with it.

"Why even discuss this? we have to surprise Andrean and Adrian,"

Lovi immediately stared at the clock. Three minutes to the day change. They had to go into the room immediately to wake the two twins who were asleep.

Not only his grandparents who helped surprise, Rena has also awakened Jane even the maids did not want to lose.

"Lov, it looks like Auris was transferred to her sleep first. He's just sleeping, he might wake up when we give a surprise,"

Lovi thought for a while before finally carrying out her husband's idea. Since Andrean, Adrian, and Auristella sleep in their parents' room, they will come there while Auristella has not been asleep for long. Pity him if he has to wake up in surprise.

Lovi moves Auristella to Rena's room according to the instructions of the grandmother who will have four grandchildren.

Devan wakes up his two children. Adrian who was not difficult to wake up immediately blinked his eyes. Andrean was bullied all-out by Lovi to immediately follow his sister to wake up. When Adrian's eyes opened completely, the atmosphere immediately turned crowded.

"HAPPY BIRTHDAY!"

He looked confused but soon immediately smiled while his brother just opened his eyes perfectly.

"It's a birthday surprise?" adrian asked, a little confused.

"Yes,"

"Happy birthday, baby." Lovi hugged her two children. Followed by Devan and his grandparents.

"Blow the candle, but before make a wish first,"

The twins prayed for a while before finally putting out a lit candle on the cake held by Lovi.

"Andrean, glad you didn't?"

"Happy," Devan's eldest son's face was still very sleepy. His eyes felt heavy to open.

Andrean stared at all those who had participated in giving a surprise. "Thank you, everybody. Relax wake up at night just to give a surprise," said Andrean who is not usually at length.

Jane gave a hug to her two nephews. "Happy birthday. Sorry there's no gift,"

"It's okay, Adrian already said, don't think of gifts,"

Now there is no prize but by the time of tomorrow's party, he has already prepared it.

"Mom, call Grandpa Lucas,"

"Want to hear Grandpa?"

"Yes, hurry Mom,"

Lovi immediately looked for her phone to contact her father. "Wow what a coincidence Grandpa called this,"

Without waiting for a long time, Lovi immediately answered her father's call. And Adrian took the phone out of his hand.

"Happy birthday to you two Grandpa Grandsons,"

"Thank you, Grandpa." replied Andrean with a faint smile.

"Thank you, Grandpa. Our birthday, Grandpa won't come to the mansion?"

"Tomorrow we'll meet at the party, won't we,"

Adrian and Andrean turned to his parents. "There's a party, Dad?"

"You think?"

"YEAAAY THERE'S ADRIAN'S BIRTHDAY PARTY,"

Everyone chuckles at the fanfare Adrian creates. "Well, I'll wait for tomorrow, Grandpa."

"Okay, once again during the anniversary. Be a child who can be a light to your surroundings. Make the family proud and as a brother should be able to take care of the sister well. Because after there are no parents, you have to take responsibility for your sister,"

"Yes, Grandpa. Thank you,"

"Night too, Grandpa."

"Come, we'll have some cake first. Then enjoy the food that has been prepared by the good-natured maids,"

Lovi invites her two children to get out of bed. "Not sleeping?"

"They haven't slept. For preparing barbeque offerings from them for the birthday,"

"Wow, thank you all." Adrian hugged the maid who had also made a surprise.

"All the best prayers for the two little masters,"

"Best prayers for you. Thanks again,"

Andrean was endlessly grateful for his birthday this time. Every birthday is bound to be filled with happiness. Only at the age of five they celebrated the birthday in the condition of the household Devan and Lovi broke but luckily Lovi and Devan can still celebrate together, the family said, but after that both twins experienced something that required them to get intensive care in the hospital.

This year happiness is doubled because Auristella is present in the middle of the family. Although tonight he did not participate make his two brothers surprised, because Lovi did not have the heart to wake Auristella who had not been asleep for long. As usual, he likes to take Lovi to bed at night.

***

At about eight in the morning, the mansion seemed more active than usual early in the morning. Because everyone had woken up even the three children Devan and Lovi had taken a bath because they had to go to the hotel ballroom where the birthday celebration would take place.

Jane is already beautiful in a pink female robot outfit. He saw Lovi cradling his daughter outside the room. Looks like someone's sulking.

"Auris why? you're not ready yet, Lovi?"

"It's not ready either. How can I prepare myself?" lovi replied as she looked down at Auristella who had reddened eyes from crying.

"Why him?"

"Wake up too early. So angry,"

"Oh my dear. Same Aunty, huh? let Mommy get ready,"

Seeing Jane reach out her hand, Auristella immediately cried again but she wanted to be carried by Jane. It was as if she was complaining to her aunt.

"Why, Honey? Mommy's naughty huh?"

Auristella's cry was still harsh. As if to justify Jane's words. Jane pretended to pinch Lovi's arm. "Aunty's been upset with your Mommy. Don't cry anymore, yeah,"

"Where's the shirt? let me put it on,"

"Are you done making up?"

"I'm ready,"

"Okay, I'll get you the shirt first,"

While waiting for Lovi to pick up Auristella's clothes in the room, Jane waited in front of Lovi's room door while inviting Auristella to talk.

Adrian looks in the mirror while Devan helps his son to style his hair.

"Already,"

"Thank you, Dad."

"Yes, don't bother Daddy in front of the mirror anymore. Stay out of the mirror, it's time for Daddy to get ready,"

Adrian immediately goes from the front of the mirror and lets Devan tidy up his hair. Andrean was wearing his shoes.

Lovi came with Auristella's shirt. "Auris go to my room first yeah,"

"Yes, thank you, Jane."

Jane has to help the mother of three. If you have to serve Auristella who cries, then Lovi will not finish beautifying herself. Shower just doesn't seem to be. Because every want to go, Lovi always put her husband and children first.

"Aunty dandani Auris, now,"

"You have to look beautiful, little baby. It's a special day for your two sisters. Understand no?"

"It's not long for you to have a birthday, Auris."

While putting the boy in clothes, Jane always asked him to talk. And Auristella also took a serious look.

"Aunty's so worried about you. Can't wait to have a living doll like you,"

"May Aunty's son be a woman. So Auris has a friend. You want to have friends, right?"

With a gnarled tooth, he pressed Auristella's cheek until her aunt pursed. As Auristella whines, Jane quickly lets go.

"Yes-yes, I'm sorry Aunty."

There is a head band that has not been used. After that, it's done. Jane smiled with satisfaction to see Auristella who was lying on her bed already appeared very beautiful and adorable.

Jane raised the child up high and kissed Auristella's cheeks piled up until Auristella giggled and soon heard something coming out of the lower part of Auristella's body.

"Gosh, are you a pup or just a waste of wind?"

Seeing Auristella's tense and slightly reddish face, the alarm in Jane's brain immediately sounded.

"You must be pup, for sure,"

As fast as lightning he walked into Lovi's room. She already wears diapers and looks beautiful, but her new pupils show themselves now. Jane breathed a rough breath when she reached Lovi's room.

He knocked on the door and Devan opened it. "So soon she was beautiful,"

"He's a pup, please clean it!"

"What?"

"Not much to ask! will I throw your innocent face with Auris's pup?!" Jane's touch took Devan by surprise. When Jane handed over her son, she immediately welcomed.

After that Jane left. The task is done. If it's a pup problem, he can't take care of it because he's beautiful. Not wanting to deal with something that smells bad.

Devan immediately knocked on the bathroom door where Lovi was. His wife was taking a shower. "Lov, Auris pup."

"I clean it up inside?"

"Alright Auris...Auris," muttered Lovi after hearing her husband's remarks. Luckily, he finished his shower.

He opened the door and grabbed his son. "I'm the one who cleans up. You're ready,"

"Me only. You're not okay, Lov."

"Just for a second. Later after Auris is clean, you take care of her, I'm ready,"

Finally Devan nodded hearing the division of duties because his son pup. Lovi undid all Auristella's clothes in the room, then Lovi immediately went back into the bathroom, and cleaned Auristella's dirt.

***

"Adrina hasn't used lipstick, Mom."

"You want to wear lipstick?"

"Yes, let Adrina's lips blush red. But it can't be excessive,"

"No need for lipstick. Lip moisturizer only,"

"You lips-"

"Don't, Honey. Little kids don't wear that. Mommy doesn't like it,"

Adrina was so excited to come to her best friend's second birthday party. Even since last night has prepared her princess-style dress.

Sheva immediately took lip moisturizer when her son no longer whined to use lip dye.

With her lips pursed adorable, Adrina silently waited for her Mommy to finish applying lip moisturizer.

"Hmmm delicious,"

"Hey don't lick. Lost then,"

Adrina patted her head while grimacing. "Forgot, Mom."

Sheva took a breath. He re-applied the moisturizer on the little lips of his only child.

"It's pretty. Come on, out."

"Mommy just took her makeup off?"

"Yes, that's enough."

Jino opened the door to approach his wife and son whom he had been waiting for since.

"Have you danced yet, two princesses Daddy?" asked the man gently and a forced smile. Everyone wants to go like this. He must be willing to wait for his wife and child to finish preparing. His wife if grooming long when he wears is not excessive, coupled with his daughter who has now begun to understand make up.

"Already, Dad. Let's go,"

He immediately clasped Jino's hand and they left the house. "Gift's been brought, hasn't it, Dad?"

"Here, in the car,"

Adrina nodded and looked back where her Mommy was. Sheva was putting the phone in the sling bag so the road was a little slow.

"Mommy, let's hurry" exclaimed Adrina who was impatiently drowning in the festive atmosphere of Andrean and Adrian's birthday party.

***

Adrian hugs Thalia who just came a few minutes after Revin. "You're so beautiful" adrian praised Thalia from top to bottom. Thalia's appearance was completely different than usual at school. Of course, because Thalia was wearing a party dress that was so elegant, sleeveless and silver in color.

Thalia's face looked red. "Thank you," he said.

Devan, who was standing next to Adrian, heard the praise from his son's mouth, and he immediately grabbed his son's head and scooped Adrian's lips. "It's smart to praise your women yes,"

Adrian chuckled and patted his chest with a pongah face. "Adrian is always smart in everything,"

His words made Devan shake his head slowly. Hopefully his son does not like to spread praise in order to ensnare women in the future.

"Happy birthday Adrian, Andrean."

"Thank you, Thalia."

Thalia shook the hands of Andrean and his sister and gave them two gifts.

"Wow brought a gift. I said no,"

Once again Devan scooped his son's lips in a frenzy."In fact, you must be hoping to get a lot of gifts,"

Adrian was honest. "That's right," he answered with a small laugh. Adrian did not expect the friends who had come so understanding to him. Although he had told them not to bring gifts, but they were very understanding. Adrian was made happy by their giving.

"Come, get over there, Thalia. Revin and your other friends are here, too,"

"Yes, Uncle."

Devan takes Thalia to approach Adrian's group of school friends who have arrived. They have prepared a special place to enjoy the robotic party.

"Hi, Thalia." greet them all warmly. Revin immediately hints at Thalia to sit nearby. "There is Adrina left again who has not come" said Revin who made Adrian nod. "Maybe he forgot that I had a birthday today,"

"It is impossible. He's your best friend,"

"Or maybe he has an unfinished grudge, so he won't come,"

Adrian again conveyed the possibility that the cause of Adrina has not yet arrived at his birthday party and Andrean.

There are several waitresses dropping dishes into the middle of their elongated tables.

"Come, eat and drink. Do not look at it," Adrian immediately offers them all to enjoy the dish. He is so good at positioning himself as the owner of the show. Although there were no parents, he was smart to make his friends comfortable in the event. Lovi and Devan are busy welcoming guests dominated by Devan's co-workers. They also brought Auristella. Because Adrian is busy with all his schoolmates, Devan calls Andrean to join in welcoming his co-workers as well as their children.

"Let your sister be with her friend. You and Daddy and Mommy say 'thank you' to those who come,"

Andrean nodded obediently at his Daddy words that sounded like an order so that he could appreciate those who had taken the time to come. In order for everyone to get a warm welcome, not just his school friends.
