The Father-in-law Seed

Chapter 10: Envy of Hearts

"Yun, this is a little money for you," said Rima as she handed him a thick brown envelope.

"Rome ... You're fuckin', anyway? If you want to play here just play, it doesn't need to be like this."

Yunita felt sad to see Rima thrusting the envelope.

"Take it, you will need it" persuaded Rima.

"But, Rim ...." Yunita needs money. However, receiving money from his best friend seemed to make him embarrassed.

"Have it, just take it!" force Rima. He gave the money to Yunita. "We are like brothers. Helping each other should be common. Your family helped me a lot. Even my help is now nothing compared to your help."

Rima will never forget the services of Yunita and her mother. Thanks to them, he was able to get the family warmth that could not even be obtained while living with his uncle's family.

"Thank you, Rim. I'm actually not feeling good to accept this," Yunita said with a trembling hand. He did not expect that today would be the arrival of old friends and get an unexpected windfall.

Rima smiled. "No need to be, I'm your best friend, not someone else" he said.

The two embrace each other. After two hours together they discussed many random things, Rima finally had to say goodbye home. His personal driver had been waiting in front of Yunita's house to pick her up.

"Why do you have to cook for yourself? If you want, we can buy it or ask the waiter to make it" Arjun said.

His wife seemed eager to prepare various ingredients to make steamed brownies. He who could not bear to see his pregnant wife fighting alone in the kitchen, finally helped.

Rima poured the ingredients that had been rooted into the stirring machine. "I happen to want to make it myself, Mom. After all during pregnancy I never did anything" she said.

Arjun hugged Rima from behind. He also noticed Rima who was stirring the material with the machine. "Said you went to Yunita's house yesterday?" tanyakanya.

"Don't you know Mas Arjun?" ask Rima curiously. He said nothing about his visit there.

"The driver told me. I asked him to pick me up at the office because the driver was usually driving Mama. He said he couldn't because he had to pick you up. So, I was escorted home by my assistant," Arjun said.

"Ah, sorry yes, Mas. You see, I haven't been there in a long time" Rima said with a guilty look.

"That's it, it's okay, I didn't ask to scold you either. Yunita how are you?"

"He's good."

"So, after all this time he can finally get our money back?"

Rima frowned. "Reverting money?" tanyanya.

"You forgot?" now it was Arjun's turn to be astonished. "Don't you ever lend 300 million to him? She said Ms. Yunita was very sick."

"Ah, that ...." Rima thought for a moment to find an excuse. "I didn't collect it, Mom. Rima's economic condition is now concerning, "he said.

"How do you mean?" ask Arjun curiously.

"Rima's father was a gambler and drunk, owed a lot. Yunita's money runs out to take care of her father. That's why I didn't dare charge him. Mas Arjun isn't mad, is he?"

Rima's face looked worried. Arjun seemed to be reading his suspicious behavior.

"Yes, if it does not exist, he is also your best friend" Arjun said, kissing his wife's cheek.

Rima was relieved. "Mas, help her make three, yeah! I want to make three-color brownies" he asked.

"Ready, Honey."

Arjun intervened doing what Rima told him to do. The two continued the cooking show while occasionally interspersed with jokes and laughter.

Sandi notices the affection that Arjun and Rima are showing in the kitchen. The two of them were joking around while cooking something together. Arjun occasionally hugged Rima's body and stroked the distended stomach.

Sandi envious. He felt as if his own were being snatched away by his own stepfather. He felt more entitled to embrace the woman and rub the stomach that became a seed growing from her.

Tomorrow, he will travel to the United States with his wife. If he could manage, he wanted Arjun to go there so that he could freely approach Rima. However, the situation is not so favorable.

"Honey," said Suni.

Sandi turned around, his wife was already in front of him. He put on a smiley face to cover up his feelings.

"Why, Ma?" tanyakanya.

"Where are the things to bring tomorrow? Why do I see you haven't got your suitcase, Pa?" ask Suni.

"Ah, I forgot to prepare it. Sorry, Sweetheart. Come on, help me get better" said Sandi.

He hugged his wife's waist and took her into the room. He will not let Suni know his true heart. For a time, he had to wait for cheeks to stay in the house and close to Rima. If there was a chance, he would definitely take Rima away with him.
