Not the Woman of My Husband's Choice
Compare that



At 6 am the sun showed its rays to penetrate Gio's room, Gio wriggling the sun shining on his face, fingered to the side looking for the whereabouts of his wife who slept last night in his arms but who in search may have been up to prepare breakfast. Rubbing his eyes and sitting leaning on top of the bed Gio glanced at Niken's phone left on the nightstand vibrating the notification sign of the incoming message. Gio checked the incoming message on his wife's phone. Already dozens of incoming phone calls, Gio saw that the one who contacted Niken was Rendra making a pity to see him.


"The snot kid is really not kapok, has been commemorated but has no fear." Then Gio saw a message on his wife's WA application, the chat contained Rendra saying that he was going out of the country to continue his studies there.


Message from Rendra


Rendra: "Niken I want to tell you I'm going to continue my studies in LA on my own accord. Maybe it's also on your husband's orders to my father to keep us away. Take care of yourself, see you later. "


The message was immediately deleted by Gio so that Niken did not read it, if Niken got to know Gio which caused Rendra to go out of his wife's country it would be pleading for Rendra not to go. He didn't want that until it happened.


"It's also rude of the snot kid to complain to Niken, fortunately I did not read it Niken." The door of the room opens, immediately Gio puts Niken's phone back on the nightstand next to his bed hoping that Niken does not know that his phone has been hijacked by Gio.


Niken went into the room to see that her husband was awake, but not yet out of bed.


"Mas, have you woken up yet to take a shower?" Niken approached Gio who was lazing around, knowing it was the weekend, so Gio did not go to work.


Smell of tauk...." Niken covered her nose smelling her husband's smell which she thought was stinging.


"Enak aja say mas stink iler, Although just woke up but mas did not drool last night." Gio smelled her body which he thought did not smell.


"Toy... It smells so bad.... Shower quickly!!" Niken pushes Gio's body into the bathroom for a quick shower.


"Yes yes... But don't push it, it's hard." Gio reasoned that Niken would not push his body again.


"Yes, I'm waiting in the dining room after taking a shower we have breakfast with my father and mother, oh yes my parents are also here mas" said Niken


"Well... Your parents are here too?" asked Gio wonder still this morning why suddenly Niken's parents came.


"Yes," answered Niken


"What are they here for? " Niken answered her husband's question just put his shoulder to shoulder means he also does not know the purpose of his parents here.


Might miss me kali mas. You have taken a quick shower there, inget not long if you take a shower.I want to accompany our parents first." Niken breezed away, her husband still standing in front of the bathroom.


"Female chatty." Mumbled Gio. Niken stopped his steps


"I heard you mas say I was chatty," Niken glared at Gio.


"Who said you were chatty, you misheard Niken." Gio said then entered the bathroom to take a shower.


Seeing her husband already going to take a bath Niken headed for the dining room.


At the dinner table Niken had prepared food for both in-laws and her parents. Niken is very happy that her family can gather at one table.


"It's rare that this moment can happen. Hopefully mom's dad has some good news for me and Gio, I'll also tell you dad and mom if I'm pregnant with Gio's son." Niken talks to herself while preparing breakfast and stroking her belly which already has the seeds of her love with Gio but is still flat.


They had breakfast together.


Gio feels badmood looking at his mother Niken, Gio is still suspicious of who has thrown the stone containing the paper, Gio, moreover, at that time Gio caught a glimpse on his CCTV screen there was a mother passing in his housing complex and it was exactly like Mia's mother right after the incident of stone throwing containing the paper.


Although at that time the picture was not very clear and Bu Mia used a mask but Gio still recognized with confidence that it was Mia's mother. Gio's allegations have not been told to Niken or Mr. Handoko, Gio still continues to look for evidence about the truth, if the evidence has been collected then he stated the truth and brought it to the police.


After breakfast, they were still talking at the table.


"Oh yeah. Rarely can we gather in this house, how are Mr. Joko and Ms. Mia?" Ask Mr. Handoko on his clothes.


"Our news is fine, sir." Said Mr. Joko smiling bitterly in his mind 'how we are fine whereas I have not long lost my only child. Now even Mia has not heard my advice, every day we just fight each other to blame for Adelia's death.' Mumbles inwardly, Joko.


"Oh... Thank goodness... If so, we continue to chat in the guest room, sir, let it be equally good to talk while relaxing so." Mr. Handoko herded besan and his son to go to the living room after breakfast to make it more free to talk.


There was a look of worry behind the smile of Bu Mia that made Pak Handoko more curious about the sudden arrival of his iron to his residence.


"Let's sit down first, I'm sorry when you guys came we didn't welcome him because you guys were visiting too early." Said Ms. Meli on both of her luggage, allowing her to sit on her long sofa in the living room.


"Ah... It's okay, Ms. Meli, it's wrong that we didn't tell you if we wanted to visit, but we thought that visiting today would be good, because this weekend must be all at home." Ms. Mia smiled but was full of falsehood, her behavior was easily read by Gio's parents.


"Niken how are you, son?" Ask Joko to the second child.


"I'm fine, Dad. I miss you so much." Said Niken who had sat next to Mr. Joko before her and now hugged her father feeling homesick because it had been a few months after the funeral Adelia last time they met completely indifferent to her husband staring sharp Niken who is still struggling in the arm of Mr. Joko.


"Dad misses you too Niken." Mr. Joko kissed his son's forehead.


"Had father and Niken don't overdo it, ashamed to be seen by besan and your in-laws Niken." Said Ms. Mia did not like her son was spoiled on her husband who according to her excessive.


"What's wrong Miss Mia, it's natural that if the child misses his parents, there's no shame that I will also be happy if I have a child like Niken, he's a good and polite child. Always smiling when talking to others and not distinguishing one's caste." Said Mr. Handoko praising Niken's humble nature. But the praise felt piercing the heart of Bu Mia, he felt that Niken was not as good when compared to Adelia his favorite child.


"really... Maybe Handoko's father does not know the true nature of Niken so can talk so about Niken. Adelia's better than Niken, It's nothing compared to Adelia." Said Ms. Mia sure of her words.


Niken was disappointed by his mother's words, not because he did not like Niken, but because compared to that which made his heart hurt. Gio shook his head at Bu Mia's words in disbelief as to why a mother would compare her two daughters to others and her own.


"But what's right now is Niken, let Adelia be a memory and Niken be a reality now." Said Ms. Meli intends to comfort her daughter-in-law who was injured, indeed Niken did not say anything disappointed it was, but Mommy Meli could read the look on her face that turned moody.


"Oh yeah. Actually I want to ask you this, do you know if Niken has been in terror lately?" Ask Mr. Handoko on both of his batches.


"Huh, terror?! " Said Mr. Joko surprised


#Don't like to compare me to her, obviously different. I am earth and he is sky high/😔
