The bridal room that had been conjured up in such a way as to create a romantic moment for the lovers, made Jinan who had just entered the room blush in shame. Very different from the bridal room when with Romi at that time.
I don't know, he also doesn't know why lately he likes to compare his first marriage with the current one. Honestly, he had no intention of doing something bad like this, but his brain suddenly thought about it.
"Astaghfirullah." Jinan sighed. Again he realized the evil he was doing.
The fragrance of roses scattered on the mattress made Jinan almost complacent to immediately lay down his body there. But because it is remembered that he has not carried out his obligations as a Muslim, then he prefers to immediately clean his face from the very thick makeup in order to immediately carry out his dzuhur worship.
In the middle of his activity, the sound of knocking on the door from outside the room made Jinan stop his activities and immediately open the door.
"Why haven't you changed your clothes?" ask a man at the door who turns out to be Ardo.
"I'm cleaning up my make up. Have you prayed?" ask Jinan.
"Not yet, let's pray together." Jinan nodded her head and immediately closed the door after Ardo entered.
After praying they remain silent in the room while enjoying snacks provided by the hotel. Jinan looks awkward when being alone with Ardo in a room with such a close distance. Especially when Ardo began to touch both hands, the woman immediately looked tense.
"Why?" ask Ardo pretending not to know.
"It's okay," Jinan said with her panicked face.
Ardo smiled amusedly, he grabbed Jinan's shoulder and pulled the woman in his arms.
"Calm down. I just want to hug you" said Ardo, ignoring Jinan's heart that was almost out of place.
It had been two hours more they were in the room while chatting casually with a discussion that Jinan said was quite interesting. And with this also Jinan had started to feel calm in Ardo's arms. Although Jinan has not dared to open his hijab in front of Ardo, but Ardo does not want to dispute it for now. The important thing is that Jinan can be comfortable first when he is nearby is more than enough as the beginning of their closeness.
After Maghrib's time, Jinan and Ardo were ready to have dinner together at the hotel's restaurant. Inside a VIP room of the restaurant, the Ardo family, Ria, Elena, and Jinan's two aunts had gathered. They are the younger siblings of Jinan's biological father who lives out of town due to having to follow her husband.
Just entering the room, Jinan and Ardo immediately get a very excited welcome from the people who were there, especially Ria and Elena.
"Well, our newlyweds are here."
"The King and Queen have finally come."
"Well, the aura of the newlyweds is different. His face is so big."
Jinan smiled shyly at the temptation of some people there, he approached his two aunts and regretted it.
"Aunt how are you?" jinan asked after taking off the hug from her aunt.
"Thank God we are good. How are you doing yourself, honey? My aunt didn't know you were getting married a second time. I'm sorry, Jinan. Aunty does not know the problems that occur in your household and Romi," said Aunt Jinan named Ika.
"Dear, forgive us. We didn't know that you were divorced from Romi" added another Aunt Jinan named Murni.
Jinan and her aunt hardly ever communicate. He did not know the reason his aunt never contacted him, but before his aunt left they already had mobile numbers for each other. Jinan was also unable to contact her aunt because her aunt's mobile number had not been active since two days after their departure from Jakarta.
Jinan smiled. "It's okay, Auntie. Aunty need not feel guilty like that, this is already Jinan's destiny."
"Other times if there's such a problem again, call Auntie right away, son."
Jinan simply smiled with a nod of his head.
"I make sure from now on Jinan will never get in trouble again, Auntie. Especially the same problem as before."
Everything on the dining table looked towards the origin of the sound that turned out to be from Ardo. No matter how the household will be going forward, for now he must make sure that the woman will continue to be happy with him.
"Thank you, Ardo. Hopefully your marriage can last until old age," said Pure and guaranteed by all who are there.
Jinan turned to the husband of his two aunts, he just smiled while chatting, asking the news of the two of them, then he immediately approached Elif who was carrying his child. He was not so close to the two husbands of his aunt, because he could see the look of dislike on the faces of the two men.
"Sorry troublesome, Auntie," Jinan told Elif.
Elif stared in wonder at Jinan. Aunty?
Jinan smiled shyly, she forgot that Elif was now her mother-in-law.
"I'm sorry, Mama," Jinan said.
"Here you go, no more trouble. Let's sit down, let's start dinner."
Jinan grabs baby Ayla from Elif, then sits her body next to Ardo.
After everyone had sat in their seats, everyone started eating dinner. Because he could not bear to see Jinan eating while holding Ayla, so Ardo took the initiative to feed his wife.
Jinan who saw Ardo grabbing his plate looked astonished.
"What are you doing? Why did you take my plate?" ask Jinan.
Ardo did not answer Jinan's question, he grabbed the spoon in Jinan's right hand, then immediately spooned the food on the plate, then stretched the spoon out to Jinan's mouth. Jinan who saw Ardo who wanted to bribe him was both shocked and embarrassed by the people who were there who were now staring at the two of them.
"If the newlyweds are gini. Main bribery. Make the singles envious."
"Yes, where my boyfriend has come home again. Can't take bribes."
Jinan's cheeks had now become red like boiled shrimp because of the words of Elena and Ria. He had never been like this before, and now he was ashamed of what Ardo was doing to him.
"I can eat alone, Ar," said Jinan who refused a bribe from Ardo.
"I know you're having trouble eating your food because you're holding Ayla, so let me feed you."
Jinan looked around him, the eyes of everyone at the dining table were still staring at the two of them.
"I can eat by myself, Ar. I'm used to it like this" Jinan refused again.
"Darling, let's open his mouth."
The affectionate mention of Ardo's mouth addressed to Jinan made everyone who was there hold back his laughter. As for Jinan himself, he was overwhelmed by Ardo's affectionate call to him.
"Oh my God, not yet one day SAH, the call is already a pity. Well, it seems like soon we will hear the happy news of this new couple" Elena teased.
"What's the happy news?" asked Ria who pretended not to understand Elena's words.
"Happy news especially from this new couple besides the news about her pregnancy," Elena's answer made everyone who was there open. It seemed so cool to tease these two new couples, they thought. Especially teasing Jinan, it was really fun.
But in between the laughter turned out to be one person who choked with his food because he heard Elena's words. Everyone there stared at the origin of the sound that turned out to be from Rico.
"Why, Honey? You eat it carefully, don't rush it. Let's have a drink" Ira told her son.
"Rico go to the toilet first, Ma."
After taking a sip of the water Ira gave him, Rico simply passed from the room. While Jinan who was very aware of what made Rico choke now lowered her gaze. He knew that if Rico liked him, that's why for the past few months Jinan has been avoiding him. Not a single call from Rico was answered, nor would Jinan reply if it mattered to him.
A second later Jinan raised his head, staring at Ardo who was holding his hand from under the table. It seems Ardo also understands what happened to Rico at that time. Looking at Ardo's smile, Jinan let out a sigh and returned the smile with a smile.
