Should I Joke (Again)
98. Everyone will leave



News of the death of Mr. Malik papa Renita to the ears of Mr. Hadi and also the family of her ex-husband.


After the body was bathed, then brought back to the funeral home to be sholatan. Many relatives and also close neighbors who came to visit.


Mama and Rei are still silent, mama is still sad because she left papa for good, while Rei still left asking.


Papa apologized at his last moment, Rei had already forgiven him long before papa apologized if this was about his marriage to his second ex-husband.


It is not wrong papa Rei failed to build a household with Reza, but because they are not a match.


But according to mama, papa took part because he betrothed them. Because according to papa's view, Reza is a good man.


Papa does not expect if his actions match Rei with Reza actually damage Rei's happiness.


People looked down on Rei because of his status as a Widow for the second time without knowing the real problems.


Had they known that it wasn't Rei here who was the progenitor, they might have been more open to Rei.


But indeed the neighboring environment is always accompanied by pros and cons. Anyone they don't like if caught involved, even if he didn't make a mistake will definitely be gossip material.


The assessment of people who are not objective and only rely on the word whether it is from a reliable source or not, remains considered bad.

The atmosphere of the funeral home was so quiet when the funeral prayer led by Mr. ustadz there. Rei, brother Dani and mama still can't believe papa left them.


Papa and Mama Ardan, as Miko and Dina were also present there, Ardan and the men there had finished the funeral prayer.


But some male guests who just came with the others, along with papa and Miko joined the funeral prayer.


Rei pensively, he silently looked at the corpse of the father who was ready to be buried. Before long Mr. Hadi and his wife came, they immediately approached Rei.


Papa Hadi knew that Rei was devastated by the passing of his father. Sacred Mama hugged Rei, rubbing her back as Rei came back crying.


"Rei, listen to papa. All the living will die, just waiting for their turn. All will go one at a time or the same. We must be sincere to keep their spirits calm. Patience son." said Papa Hadi.


There was a sense of pity from seeing her dear son-in-law hit like this, the Holy Mama also cried. After Rei was quite calm and there was Ardan beside him Mama Hadi approached towards mama Rei, said condolences.


Just before the final adhan release of the body, the family of Rei's ex-husband came. Rei did not care, all he had in mind was on him.


Reza came with his wife and son, as well as his parents. Reza tried to get close to Rei and said condolences, but Rei just kept quiet.


He did not want to respond, felt ignored by Reza's wife and took her away. He felt unappreciated as a guest.


It feels like brother Dani approached and tore his mouth if bang Heru her husband and mother did not prevent.


For mama to have enough dealing with them, mama Amel does not want to prolong the problem.


Reza and his parents apologized for the past incident, as well as for the attitude of his wife just now. Ardan who was still loyal to accompany his wife just nodded and thanked them for their arrival.


He also apologized because Rei did not respond, because indeed since papa's death, Rei had been quieter.


Mourners kept coming, both from papa's colleagues and Ardan, Rei's co-workers, and also his papa friends.


At home there was only Amel's mother, Rei and her two mother-in-law. Ardan forbids Rei to come to remember the condition of Rei who had dropped a while ago.


Ardan doesn't want anything to happen to his wife and future baby. Mama Tami understood, and asked Ardan to follow the funeral procession.


Holy Mama looks after Rei and Mama Tami accompanies mama Amel, Rei's mother. There are still some mourners coming. Mama Suci and mama Tami asked Rei to calm down, and not think of papa anymore. Papa is calm now.


Because the most important thing now is the fetus in Rei's stomach that really needs attention. Rei was silent when his mother-in-law Tami spoke, her tears fell again, her hands stroking her stomach which had begun to be seen.


The fetus in his stomach seemed to understand the condition of his mother, the baby moved. Rei was amazed, he again stroked his stomach and apologized for ignoring it.


Rei's condition was weak because he had not filled his stomach at all, the Sacred Mama knew that. Mom went to the kitchen and got food for Rei.


Mama Suci fed Rei, although Rei refused on the grounds not hungry but mama still forced. Out of pity for the baby, Mama doesn't want the events that once happened to happen again.


Mama Suci alternates with mama Tami looking after Rei, feeding their daughter-in-law both.


Ardan, papa Pras and the other brothers have returned home for the funeral. Brother Dani and bang Heru followed later, along with papa Hadi.


Ardan turned to look at Rei for a moment, he could not bear to see his wife like that. But Ardan calmed down a little after Mama said that his wife was already willing to eat even a little.


What is important is the nutritional intake for their prospective babies. Rei searches for her husband's whereabouts, feeling guilty for having neglected her husband.


True said mom crying need energy, sad also need energy, especially now in her body is growing fetus of course the food will be shared with the baby.


After eating his mind calmed down, he did not cry anymore. Rei walked towards the dining room looking for her husband who since returning home from the funeral had not seen him.


"Mas." called Rei, Ardan turned his head after hearing his wife call.


Ardan stood intending to get closer, but Rei first ran towards him. Rei immediately hugged her and shed his tears again.


Ardan is confused but then he realizes that his wife is pregnant, his emotions are unstable. So Ardan let his wife shed all her tears.


"Mas, I'm sorry yes" said Rei again, his position is still the same hugging Ardan, his crying voice subsided only as much as it was.


"Sorry why, you're not wrong" Ardan calmed his wife. He patted his wife's back.


"I'm. I've been ignoring you. Sorry to me" Rei cried again.


"Hey cup cup cup, don't think about it. I understand how, now calm yes, let the baby not be sad."


Ardan wiped the tears on his wife's cheek, he also stroked her stomach and her baby in the belly responded.


Ardan was quite shocked, this was the first time he had felt the movement of his baby from inside the stomach. It was amazing, Ardan could not hold back his tears of joy.


Ardan turned his head towards his wife, and Rei nodded. Ardan repeated again stroking Rei's stomach gently.
