Sri approached Oma and immediately the old grandmother hugged her tightly. His spine was already slightly bent. Walking is also helped with the stick. But still young at heart. Cheerfully welcome Sri's embrace.
"It turns out wrong. Lani said you were so pretty. But it didn't. Your nose is pugnacious" Oma said as soon as their embrace unraveled.
Sri gasped at the words of Oma which she thought were very encouraging. His words expressed disappointment. But his face still shone.
"Khekheehee..."
Huh uh?! this old granny still chuckles after mocking me?
Sri glanced at Lucky who was still breathing because he was tired of running away from the geese. But Lucky didn't notice.
"Hkeeheehee.. No need to ask for the bad boy's help" Oma glanced at Lucky at his back. Then I looked at Sri again. "I'm kidding. You're so sweet. Lani didn't pick the wrong ghost"
The old voice explained. Sri's face was embarrassed to think badly of Oma.
"Thank you Oma"
"Come on. Come on. help me get inside"
Oma pulled Sri's hand to wipe her running. Trained to walk with his old feet.
"Honey, let me" suddenly Lucky was already beside Sri. Take Oma's hand.
"Haiisshhhh.. Let go of your hands!" yelling Oma hit Lucky's hand until it missed. "Let your wife help me"
"Oma, Oma's running slow. Rather than being tired, I'd rather be fat"
Regardless of the ravings of his speech, Lucky just lifted Oma in his arms like a bridal style. Makes Oma strangle in shock.
"God! you're so strong Lucky!"
Lucky just smiled at Oma by raising his eyebrows. Making Sri shake her head and laugh seeing Oma beating Lucky's arm in shock.
They went inside the house. Sri looks amazed to see the contents of Oma's house. From the incredible. But once inside, the atmosphere immediately felt very different.
His house is a rural model. But inside, hmm. everything is classy. There is also furniture from teak wood. All neatly arranged. Sri looked up to see the contents in the house.
"Why is Oma alone? Where's Nirah?" Lucky puts Oma's old body on the soft sofa. Then sit next to him.
"Still going to the garden to deliver food"
"Why is no one staying? where are the others?"
"Don't be too chatty Luck. Oma can still walk on her own" Oma pouted.
"Yes Oma, I know Oma can walk. But Oma's path is like a snail. What if Oma falls? Later I'll be bothered to carry Oma every day"
"Oohh.. So you mind if you take care of me?" Oma snorted furiously.
"Hehehe.not love kuuuu... Your granddaughter is still able to hold Oma up to a hundred years non-stop" Lucky poking Oma's wrinkled cheeks that have been sagging.
Oma smiled happily at her granddaughter's flutter. Touching Lucky's cheek with affection. Then kissed his beloved grandson's forehead.
Lucky got up and approached Sri who was sitting across from them. Sitting beside her while embracing Sri's shoulder and peeping her cheek.
"Oma, she's my wife's Sri. Hows it? Oma likes it, right?"
"Yes, Oma likes it. Your wife is so sweet" Oma smiled broadly displaying her teethless gums. Makes Sri almost laugh. Oma looks really funny.
"Assalamualaikum" Nirah came with a girl.
"Wa aleikumsalam"
"Eh.. Lord Lucky came" They both bowed and nodded respectfully. Looking towards Sri as well. And Sri replied to that nod and smiled.
"It's over?" lucky asked looking at Nirah.
"Already sir. But Edi is still there" replied Nirah.
Nirah who works at Oma's house. He, along with his daughter Susi, is assigned to take care of Oma and all her needs. Her husband takes care of Oma's garden.
"Yes madam"
Nirah nodded respectfully then stepped towards the kitchen with Susi.

After lunch, Lucky decided to rest in the room. Tired after a long journey. Lucky prefers to drive his own car. I don't like it if his assistant keeps following him wherever he goes.
Lucky prefers that his privacy is not well known to outsiders. Even though Beni knows everything. But he's more comfortable without Beni's eyes always watching him.
Sri can't sleep. Sitting accompanied Oma on the side veranda. Oma sat on her rocking chair, and Sri sat not far from her.
"Oma why don't you just stay in the mansion with mom?" Sri peeled the salak fruit and ate it while staring at Oma.
"Oma prefers it here" replied Oma.
"Yes Oma. It is like in Sri village. Is beautiful. Many rice fields" Sri turned her gaze to look at the rice field map.
"Oma's happy enough to see you guys happy. Your husband's not naughty, is he?"
Sri scrunched his forehead. Somewhat do not understand what is meant by 'rogue" said Oma.
"Lucky is naughty. In the past, when he played he always beat his friends?"
Sri rounded her eyes. Is Lucky really that bad?
"But he loves my daughter very much. Lani was pampering him too much" Oma kept silent for a moment. His eyes glared far away recalling Lucky's childhood memories.
"Lani is very afraid of losing Lucky. It was because of the incident when she gave birth to Lucky. The kid almost left. But thankfully there was your father" Oma looked at Sri and smiled warmly.
"Sri's uncle just helped, Oma"
Oma was still developing her smile. "I couldn't thank him, Sri. Only God can repay his kindness to my grandson"
Sri nodded. Watching Oma eat salak fruit. Seeing Oma chewing in her toothless mouth was very funny. Salak is like a ball that oscillates around like a busy ball player passing and winding from the opponent. Sri until giggled amusedly.
"Hehee. This is how old it is, Sri. Eating anything is like eating a stone. Ahggrr. cui.."
Angrily Oma threw the salak out of her mouth. Sri laughed crisply at that.
"Sri"
"Yes Oma"
"You filled in?"
Sri stunned. Isn't it? What does Oma mean?
"Having it late?" Oma asked again.
"Where do you want to go, Oma?"
"Hehehe. you are" Oma chuckled. "I mean Oma... Are you pregnant? There's no sign yet?"
Sri silence. Getting pregnant? never thought of him about it. All he knows is, he still has monthly guests. Uh. but...
"Yet?" ask Oma again.
"Eh. emm.. Ndak know Oma" Sri shook her head in a daze.
"Hehe. It's okay. If the windfall does not go where" said Oma finally.
He knew the question was very sensitive. Oma did not want to make Sri feel uncomfortable with her question. Maybe the girl does not know what the signs of pregnancy are.
Sri was so worried about Oma's question just now. How are the signs of pregnancy? stop coming the moon, right? But as Sri remembers, she still came months in the last month. Still working this month. And not exactly the date of his menstruation. Sri thought, it was still ten days away.
