Scandal at the House of In-Law

Edwin Sok Good

Mona talks to Jeslyn about Edwin. Jeslyn cheers in excitement hearing Mona will match her up with Edwin.

"Aren't you sure you want Jeslyn's mate with Edwin?" ask Jeslyn.

"Yes, but last night I was just like Bara. He said I had to figure out the ins and outs of Edwin first" Mona said.

"So Bara is not fun" said Jeslyn.

For Jeslyn it's okay if Bara disagrees. For him, most importantly, Mona agreed.

Edwin and Jeslyn are close. They often go to the house together.

"Edwin, where do you live?" ask Jeslyn.

"I'm coming with me, my papa mama is gone" replied Edwin.

"I'm sorry I don't know" Jeslyn said.

Every time they came out Edwin always made Jeslyn's heart happy. So did Helena and my papa Jeslyn.

"Om, this is a martabak" Edwin said.

Edwin had to be kind enough to take the Jeslyn family's heart. Those who do not know the main purpose of Edwinpun feel happy because Edwin is a good man.

"Thank you, Edwin," said papa Jeslyn.

After that Edwin came home because it was night. Helena always prides Edwin in front of anyone. Although they have not officially dated but Edwin already got the green light.

That day Helena made an anniversary event at her home. Bara and Mona arrive, and Edwin is invited.

"Om, Aunt happy anniversary!" edwin.

Edwin gave Helena a gift. Looks like it's an expensive bag because it looks from the paper bag.

"Thank you, Edwin," said Helena. "You are indeed the ideal son-in-law" said Helena.

Getting compliments from Helena got Edwin the upper hand. He managed to take Helena's heart.

Bara who saw a little upset because Edwin seemed pretentious to the Mona family.

Bara himself gave a necklace to Helena and a watch to her father-in-law.

"Aunty can do it" said Edwin.

Mona is happy to see her family happy. He believes Edwin can make Jeslyn happy.

"Tuh Mas Edwin is good, right" Mona told Bara.

"Yes well, he will take your heart again" said Bara. "But for me we still need to be vigilant, after all we do not know the ins and outs of his family," Bara said.

"Even though we don't know but he's nice, not rich you know his family but he's depraved" Mona said.

Bara is lazy to serve Mona's words, he does not want to argue in front of the Mona family. Moreover, this was their happy day.

Mona still often bring up Alex's mistakes so that makes Bara feel sad.

The invited guests had already come, Helena invited them to start the event. After the cake cutting event, all guests are welcome to eat the prepared dishes.

Helena continued to praise Edwin's kindness. That put the boy in the wind. Even though Bara who has become his daughter-in-law has never been praised like that in front of the family.

"Well, why are you here, Mom?" ask Mona."Join Edwin and the others. Edwin has just mingled with the other guests" Mona said.

Bara dislikes it the most because Mona seems to be very supportive of Jeslyn and Edwin's relationship. Even her advice to find out Edwin's family was not heeded.

Bara caught up with the others, they chatted about business matters and so on.

"I don't think I'm a match for Jeslyn. I'm just a driver not like Mr. Bara who is a businessman" Edwin said humbly.

I looked up to hear his name being mentioned.

"Don't you? Our family never looked at status" said papa Jeslyn. "For us what matters is that you always make Jeslyn happy. If it's about work after marriage you can work at my place," he said.

"Well, I'm getting less and less, Om," said Edwin.

"Sok-sokan nolak," Inner Bara.

"But remember, you have to make Jeslyn happy" Helena said.

"Sure, Aunt" said Edwin confidently. "Just now let us approach first to know the character of each. Anyway, I was afraid that the Jeslyn family would have doubts about me" Edwin said.

That sentence was an allusion to Bara. However, Bara tried to be ordinary.

"Edwin, just calm down. We believe in you" said Mona.

"Thank you, ma'am" said Edwin.

Bara is increasingly upset at Mona and Edwin's familiarity. Either because of jealousy or indeed he did not like the existence of Edwin at this time.

"What do you see, Mas?" ask Mona.

"Oh no," replied Bara. "We're staying here what's home, honey?" ask Bara.

"We'll just do it, it's night again" replied Mona.

"Okay if it's a giti," said Bara.

The night was getting late, the guests began to leave one by one until Edwin's turn.

"Edwin, thank you very much for the prize. Aunty loves it" said Helena.

"It's just a small gift, Auntie. It must not be comparable to the gift that Mr. Bara and Mr. Mona gave," said Edwin.

"Ah not really," said Helena.

"Pamit ya Aunty, it's tonight" Edwin said, kissing Helena's hand and Jeslyn's father.

"Be careful, Win" said Jeslyn.

Jeslyn escorted Edwin forward. He was happy that Edwin was welcomed by his family.

"Thank you for coming. I'm glad our closeness is approved by everyone" Jeslyn said.

"Yes together, sleep there at night," said Edwin waving.

Jeslyn went inside the house, he saw Bara still there.

"Sister Bara, why don't you like Edwin?" ask Jeslyn.

"Who said you didn't like Edwin. It's just that Brother needs to know the ins and outs of his family. As long as you've been introduced to her family?" ask Bara.

"Not yet, again forget we are also new approaches," replied Jeslyn.

"Udah do not listen to the words of Mas Bara. Sleep there! You're going to college tomorrow" Mona said.

Jeslyn enters the room, while Mona and Bara are still in the living room.

"Don't ruin Jeslyn's happiness, Mas!" ban Mona. "He's my brother, I know what's best for him. About the Edwin family, we can get to know him slowly. So don't be suspicious of people" Mona said.

"I'm sorry, honey," said Bara.

"Come to the room!" get Mona to pull Bara's hand.

After cleaning up, they went to bed. Before going to bed as usual Mona asks Bara to stroke her distended stomach.

"The son of a smart father, later if it is big do not like to snack rich mama yes," said Bara.

"What the hell are you," Mona said.

Bara immediately kissed Mona's lips that had been pigtailed. Mona was silent. Eventually they kiss each other and end up in a hot bed game.

"You know what Auntie's favorite is" said Helena.

Bara just came out of the room wondering who's talking to Helena this early.

"It turns out Edwin, the face seeker," Bara said.

"Who's looking for face?" ask Jeslyn. "I don't like it when Brother Bara vilifies Edwin" continued Jeslyn.

He was silent, and he would not argue with Jeslyn. Later even make unpleasant with the in-laws.
