Should I Joke (Again)

29. Your smile my spirit

Thank God, today's event was a successful smile engraved on the face of the host. The invited guests have gone home, there is only a large family left. The WO reorganizes the place that will be used for the marriage contract tomorrow.

Tired faces began to appear from the host, but happy faces were more domineering. One by one members of the Ardan family from the papa and mama parties have rested, some have returned to the hotel which is located close to the reception place.

Mama and Papa Ardan finally can sit after a busy day, understand the first time you have gawe so still confused. Although there is already a WO that takes care of it, it is incomplete if you do not participate in it.

Looking at the person who came down the stairs, Ardan seemed to have changed clothes. His face is fresher, wearing polo shirts and jeans do not forget his car keys.

"Where are you going to rest." asked papa

"Ardan wants to go to the house of Rei ma,pa, want to look at the lover of my heart" said Ardan relaxed.

"Yes, papa hasn't heard his voice all day, hasn't he come?"

"Rei's sick pa, he actually wanted to come here but when he wanted to change his clothes out of his room he had a fever."

"Hah.. prospective mother-in-law is sick, well how is this tomorrow already a marriage contract. It's a pity that he didn't come" Mama looked sad.

"Calm ma, the prospective daughter-in-law of mama is better, Ardan called earlier said her mother had checked by a doctor and was resting. So now Ardan's permission to look at him, all permission to stay at the camer's house." Ardan smiled displaying his white teeth.

"You know, he wants to hold on to her. Look out you can't depe first, mama don't like ya." Mama hits Ardan's arm slowly, who grimaces in pain while stroking his arm.

"Every boss, depe first also gapapa make a sign" said Ardan, once again teasing his mother.

"Ga. ga there is no sign so, don't be sad." mama pouted.

"Having left already almost eight o'clock at night, it's not polite to visit too late." papa spoke up, mediate this absurd mother and daughter debate.

"Every boss. Ardan went yes ma, pa" kissed his parents' hands.

"Eh you want to go out there, don't bring a change of clothes?" ask Mama again, Ardan looked over.

"It's ready in the car ma, tomorrow Ardan go straight to the restaurant to check the condition there before the marriage contract starts."

"Good, don't forget the future mother-in-law invited all of you."

"Okay boss. Assalamualaikum"

"Girishal"

After answering his son's greetings, mama and papa Ardan headed to his room to rest. Tiring day, just one more step.

€€€

Before Renita's house, Ardan stopped by her subscription martabak seller. On the way, he ordered two eggs and sweet martabak for the house.

After paying for his order, Ardan immediately drove his car to Rei's house. The streets are still crowded because of the weekend and as usual many places young people who are getting more and more crowded at night.

After parking his car, Ardan stepped into the courtyard. Knock on the door and wait for a response from the owner. While waiting for Ardan to sit on the patio chair, put his luggage over the table.

ceklek, the door is open. Ardan looked at who he was.

"Assynriding, bik. Rei's asleep?" ask Ardan.

"Waalaikumsalam, Ardan mas. Ms. Rei in the rest room, was examined by a doctor this afternoon. Let's go in the mas, the father and mother are in the middle."

Ardan followed the aunt to the living room where Renita's parents were. Say hello and kiss the parents' hands, then sit on the sofa opposite Papa Rei.

Ardan also handed the parcel he had brought to Rei's mother, who then put it on the plate and had the aunt bring it inside with warm tea.

"Sorry pa, Ardan's coming late. It was still busy cleaning up the house after the event." Ardan opened his voice, a bit awkward actually but for the sake of meeting his heart puja must eliminate his awkwardness.

"hmmm. "papa Rei just nodded.

Shortly after, the aunt came with a drink and martabak that Ardan had brought. Mama also sat down after seeing Rei in her room.

"Ga papa ma, it's common. I thought Rei from earlier wanted to quickly come here but wait for everything to be sorted out and can go."

"Mama and papa have also been asking for Rei's condition, so I think it's better that I go straight to Rei."

Ardan knows meeting at this hour is indeed less polite but than the thought of continuing better recklessly to meet Rei. Papa Rei understands Ardan's worries, his name is also someone else is in love.

"Diminished the tea first, you just met Rei in the room. But he was resting again, the effect of taking the drug became sleepy continued." said mama.

Not wanting to linger there, Ardan sipped the warm tea that had been served. He then said goodbye to papa and mama to meet Rei.

It didn't take long because this wasn't the first time he had been to Rei's room, but still the awkwardness was there let alone their illegitimate status.

Opening the door of the room and seeing the woman sleeping, Ardan touched Rei's forehead feeling his body temperature. Thankfully her body was no longer hot, the body temperature returned to normal just a sleepy effect that made Rei have to lie back.

Sensing that someone was touching him, Rei tried to open his eyes. A smile emanated from her beautiful face, Ardan returned the smile. Then sit on the edge of the bed holding Rei's hand.

"You why? just make me worry." One hand Ardan stroked Rei's cheek, the other hand still faithfully grasping Rei's hand.

"I'm sorry, I don't know if I'm worried about me" Rei said.

"It's not just the mas, mama and papa too. Even mama back and forth nanyain you."

"Sorry" Rei's gaze could not be separated from the man in front of him. Trying to get up and lean on the head of the bed, Ardan helped her put a pillow behind Rei.

Cup

Ardan landed a kiss on Rei's forehead, feeling the warmth of the kiss long enough.

"Now is it still dizzy?" Ardan stroked Rei's head.

Rei shook his head, it felt ashamed to be noticed like this even though they had kissed once.

"What do you eat, I bring your favorite martabak downstairs. Mama put it on the plate I'll get it first."

Rei smiled and nodded, Ardan came out taking the martabak. Stepping into the kitchen got him a drink and his hammer. While going back to Rei's room, Mama and Papa Rei startled him.

"Rei's awake?" ask papa, look at Ardan's innate.

"Oh, yes, yes, pa. Here I bring martabak he said to eat martabak"

"Thank God, let's see Rei ma"

The three stepped into Rei's room, the owner of the room realizing who had come.

Mama and papa approached, they smiled Rei already looked fresher.

"Let's eat the hammer first, your stomach bias is not empty" Mama told Ardan to come closer.

Taking the martabak piece, Rei then took the drinking water that Ardan had put on the nightstand. But Ardan forbids it so he feeds Rei.

Papa and mama look at each other, both smiling at the magnitude of Ardan's attention to his youngest daughter.

Mama and papa excuse me to their room, but previously reminded Ardan to sleep in the guest room. After the death of Rei's parents, Ardan sat down near Rei and hugged him. Rei returned the hug, because to be honest he missed so much.

"Mas, thank you" Rei said as the embrace slipped.

"Darling, to me your smile is my spirit. Get well soon, so tomorrow we can replace the newlyweds sitting on bail." Ardan again teased Rei.

"Ih... He wanted to" Rei smacked Ardan's chest softly. Ardan chuckled at Rei whose cheeks were met with adorable red.

"Sleep, I'll take care of you" Ardan said as he hugged Rei. Put Rei's head on him. The two then closed their eyes and slept in a sitting state while hugging.
