AUTHOR POV
"Please have a room, brother, if you want to! Many children are not old enough here!" arga protests while putting her surf board in the corner of the room.
Arjuna and Arga have returned after being content to play jetski and surf. Athena and Fiona have also rejoined the dining room. They came with empty plates and clean spoons and forks.
"Who is a child?" adrian asked while lowering Nadine from his lap.
Adrian and Nadine returned to their seats as before without letting go of their hands.
Nadine is still always struggling spoiled in Adrian's stocky arms. Although she was embarrassed to have been caught making out, Luna was not shy to show her affection for Adrian in front of her sisters-in-law.
"Nih.nih.there are two little girls next to me!" Arga persuades Athena and Fiona with her chin. "They are still kids!"
"Have a son! We did it big time, we went to college together! Again small like this, we both have a boy! Is it Arga's brother who's a weathered bachelor?" syndicate Fiona.
"It's so nice that Kak Arga, it's ordinary.the idle mouth of a single person is so shaped!" tymphal Athena lifted up a box of spoons and forks.
Hearing that Athena and Fiona had a lover, Adrian stares at the two. There is a feeling of dislike when knowing the fact that his two sisters have stripped them of their single status.
"You guys have a boyfriend?" adrian asked in a flat, cold tone.
Athena and Fiona's faces turned pias. The two looked at each other with nervous feelings. Fiona accidentally flirts saying that they already have a lover. Sooner or later, they are interrogated by Adrian.
"Why silence? Answer the question Brother!" ask Adrian again.
Arjuna and Arga could only help but laugh at the sight of his two younger sisters who were in the sudden ospek by Adrian. There is no intention at all to help. They prefer to enjoy the flash entertainment where Athena and Fiona look dead style in front of Adrian.
"Ekhmmm.that's Brother, just kidding! We have no boyfriend!" Fiona cleared her throat and rubbed her non-itchy cheeks so nervously.
"Why do you say 'there's a guy?" Adrian deliberately put emphasis on the word already there is the guy.
"Y--yes, he means there's already that guy.we're beautiful, cute again.nah because of that, a lot of guys who chase us on campus!" Athena reasoned.
"Don't try to dodge, be honest! If you're lying, you're getting curious and will find out who your lover is."
Degh's...
Like being struck by lightning, the hearts of Athena and Fiona were beating so fast. Their hearts felt hard until cold sweat began to pour, even though the wind on the beach is rotating to give cool air.
"Son't mess around! Finding information about the background of your lovers can be done easily quickly."
Athena and Fiona were silent and could not answer because their guts suddenly shrunk.
"Adrian has dong! Let them date, they're still young!" Nadine tries to mediate so that the atmosphere does not turn out to be awkward.
"The thing is, these two dear sisters of mine are both naive! Every time they both had girlfriends, the edges always ended in heartbreak. Whether it's cheated, left in the middle of the road, used his money-"
Nadine interrupted Adrian, "You talk like that as if you never broke my heart!"
Arga immediately sprayed the drinking water from the canned soda he was gulping. While Arjuna, Athena and Fiona also turned their faces to hold back laughter because her eldest brother had just been checked by his wife.
"Wait, what?" Adrian glanced at Nadine quickly. Her eyes were squeaking dislike because of Nadine's statement just now.
"Yes. You often make me cry." Nadine grinned. "Then don't act pretentious like an angel. You have flaws too, right?"
"At least I don't cheat." stressed Adrian. (At least I never cheated)
"Still.the things that you do make me upset sometime," lamented Nadine. (Stay still.the things you do, make me disappointed sometimes).
Adrian closed his eyes withstanding emotions. He clenched his hand tightly. Arguing with the wife is the thing Adrian wants to avoid the most at this time. Remembering a few minutes ago they just kissed with the heat.
"Well.the types of husbands fear wives!" cibir Arga who was greeted with laughter by everyone who was there.
HAHAHAHAHAH'S....
Their laughter sounded so boisterous it made Adrian even more upset.
"DIAMMMM!!!!" Adrian snapped with a loud voice so that the laughter stopped instantly.
Silent. The atmosphere turned silent because Adrian was putting on fashion with a gloomy face. No one would dare to make a sound if Adrian had said that. That's how scary he is.
"Iyy-iya Kak" said the two together.
That evening, the six of them both enjoyed dinner earlier than usual. Occasionally Nadine also invited to chat with her sisters-in-law, so that the atmosphere was not too stiff.
Later that night, they gather together to lay mats on the sand and make a bonfire while playing Jenga. Arga also did not forget to bring a guitar and pluck strings to sing a beautiful song that can accompany their night.
Honestly, Adrian has not enjoyed moments like this. Jockeying with family and spending quality time together is very far from his dreams.
Unlike his four siblings who are busy playing, Adrian and Nadine choose to cover a little away from them so that both can get privacy. But still in the same area.
"Wear this, the night wind is not very good for health." Adrian put his thick jacket on Nadine.
"Thank you." Nadine leaned her head against Adrian's shoulder, "What are you thinking?" Nadine glanced at Adrian whose eyes looked blank.
"Nothing's." Adrian tidied Nadine's hair flying in the night wind.
"Lying..you must be thinking about something, right?" Nadine forced Adrian to confess.
"Let's know, I just feel like I'm in a good state right now. Being in the middle of my family, spending time together, I haven't done it in a long time. I forgot how to be happy all this time. I'm to mess up, Nadine." Adrian paused his speech.
"And now, slowly I began to feel my life stable. Galih and David have been captured, my revenge avenged already. The weight on my shoulders lifted a little by itself" Adrian continued.
"And how do that feel? Are you satisfied with that achievement?" Nadine raised her head to look at the beautiful netra of the alluring Adrian.
"I'm relieved. But for satisfaction, not yet. The toxic nature in me says that Galih and David should get more punishment than that. Even taking their lives was not enough to avenge their actions in the past."
Nadine grabbed Adrian's palm and placed it on his right cheek. "Adrian, each person has his own portion to gain karma for their bad deeds."
"Only God has the right to judge him, you have no power against that! Maybe you feel dissatisfied, but God has other plans. Your job is done here." Nadine.
She didn't want her husband still falling into an endless pit of revenge.
Nadine never had a bad childhood and did not know what it was like to be a little Adrian who always lived in the dark.
But Nadine promised to continue to accompany Adrian through difficult times in his life. Nadine will try to be her husband's support system in order to recover from the trauma she has.
"Detach Adrian.heal with me! We're going through this together. We're gonna be parents, remember?"
Nadine carries Adrian's sturdy hand to hold his stomach. "In here, there's a little fetus waiting to meet us, Mommy and Daddy."
"This child will be a booster for our relationship, and as a sign that we will be exploring a new life."
Nadine never tired-boss to convince Adrian and cast off doubts in his heart that still has the principle to be reluctant to have a baby.
"You're ready, right? Waving a wonderful life with me?" ask Nadine.
"It's too late to avoid it now?" cananda Adrian grinning.
Nadine laughed softly and plunged her body into the warm embrace of her husband. Adrian happily returned Nadine's embrace so tightly, then kissed his wife's forehead in a row.
Adrian doesn't care what happens with his future with Nadine tomorrow. Whether they'll stick together or not, Adrian never knows.
But for him, this moment is proof that Nadine is the only woman who is his strength now.
"She is everything to me, beyond everything." said Adrian in his heart.
