The Father-in-law Seed

Chapter 5: New Room

The driver stopped the car in Arjun's yard. Rima felt lazy to return to that house again. Meanwhile, Arjun looks enthusiastic to bring his wife home after a night of staying at the villa.

The car that their parents were riding also arrived.

Rima held tightly onto Arjun's arm as she watched Sandi get off the car. He lowered his gaze not daring to look at the depraved man.

"Is everything in order, Ma?" ask Arjun.

"Of course, honey. I told them overtime anyway last night should be for your sake," Suni said excitedly.

Actually he will make it as a surprise for Rima. Unfortunately, Aunt Gina leaked it first.

Suni hires a handyman to secretly arrange the rooms her son and granddaughter will occupy. He moved their room down to be close to his room and did not have to bother going up and down the stairs.

"Your mama is like Roro Jonggrang, willing to order people to build overnight" continued Sandi.

"Haha ... Mama's stubborn when she wants to." Arjun.

"They've also agreed and Mama's paid 5 times their wages. Let's see how it works."

They went into the house together. Some of the servants seemed to be busy cleaning the house giving greetings when they came home.

At Arjun's house there aren't too many servants working. They were supposed to return to the living quarters behind after the work was done. Suni doesn't really like her house to be a waiter's traffic. Only at certain times are they allowed to enter.

"Next ...."

Suni enthusiastically showed off the results of the room design that will be occupied by Rima and Arjun. The room was a modern classic style design with shades of white and cream that dominate. Meanwhile, the room for his future grandchildren he designed with shades of light blue and many toys are displayed there even though the baby himself has not been born.

The nursery is placed between Rima's room and Suni's. The reason is, if at any time the baby will cry, they will easily calm him.

This made Rima even more worried. Her father-in-law could have casually entered the room of her future baby. However, his position as a son-in-law could not do much. It is up to her mother-in-law and her husband.

"How, Rima? Do you like it?" Suni could not wait to hear the response from her son-in-law after the effort she had put in.

"Yes, Ma. I like it." Rima gave a pushy smile.

He glanced at Sandi. The man was caught looking at her with a suspicious look as usual. He was like a lion looking for an opportunity to ambush its prey.

"Have you been looking for a baby sitter to help Rima later? If not, let me find it" said Arjun.

"Baby sitter, huh? Mama think that if you have a baby in the early days is not too needy, I think Rima can take care of herself. Isn't that right, Rima?" ask Suni.

Rima was surprised by her mother-in-law's statement. "But, Ma. I have to work too" he said.

During pregnancy, she is told to stop by Arjun to focus on her pregnancy. However, according to her agreement with Arjun, she will return to work after giving birth. Rima enjoyed her career as a manager at one of Arjun's restaurants.

"What do you work for, Rima? Your husband's income is more than enough for the needs of you and your child later. If it is still lacking, Mama also does not mind to give money to you."

Rima was sad. It's not about money being regretted when he was banned from work. However, he was usually busy with work. During pregnancy she did nothing to make him almost die of boredom at home.

"Ma, the time because of having a career child that I have built for 4 years must stop?" rima Protest.

"Mama didn't mean that, Rima. Mama just doesn't want you to be too exhausted taking care of the kids and the company. Moreover, the child you will give birth to has been awaited for 4 years. Focus on your pregnancy and preparation for birth first, career issues, you can start again after your child is 2 years old. Anyway before two years, do not involve outsiders in childcare. My mother is experienced" Suni said.

"Already, Honey. Just listen to Mama. That means good too. You can spend time with our child later," Arjun said. He did not want his wife and mother to fight just because of the problem of the nanny.

Rima took a deep breath. He could not win if he had argued with his mother-in-law.

"You rest first inside. If there is something lacking, Mama will contact the exchange again," said Suni.

Arjun invites Rima into a new room. He closed the door from the inside. He saw the face of the wife who was moody because she lost the debate with her mother.

"Already, yes! Don't be so moody" Arjun persuaded.

"Mama always does. He wants to interfere too much with our home life. I don't like it!" rima said in an annoyed tone.

Arjun told his wife to sit on the edge of the bed. "Well how else? I'm an only child, the child you're going to give birth to is your first grandchild. It's only natural that he treats you guys so special."

"Special is special, but I also have my own choice! Time everything Mama arranged? Even my maternity clothes, these baby clothes, Mama all you pick?" rima Whine. It seems to have no power there.

Arjun hugged Rima. "Take that as a help to make it easier for you. If you want to buy your own clothes, or clothes for your future child, buy them without saying them to you" she advises.

"I'd actually like to live in an apartment with you, Mas. Here is not free, want anything like being monitored continuously!"

Arjun smiled. "Patience, someday Mama will also get tired of taking care of us. His business affairs are also many, it just so happens that now his work in the country. He said next year Mama has business cooperation abroad. Usually it's a long time."

Rima can smile back. His domestic life was indeed more cool when Suni was abroad. As long as her mother-in-law stayed with her, anything she did always seemed wrong.

He also hoped that his father-in-law would leave the house immediately. He was sure the man had bad intentions for him. While at the villa, Sandi almost wanted to harass her if Arjun had not come to check on her in the bathroom.

"Mas, you're not leaving me, are you?" rima asked while hugging her husband.

"You're talking weird again. I'm not gonna leave you, honey."

"Promise, yes!"

"Yes, I promise."
