Gio sat on the edge of the bed and continued to observe the USG photos with a look of disbelief. Really, this still feels so unreal to her. The mother had gone home a few minutes ago, while Ara was in the kitchen making her a drink. The man's eyes could not be separated from the USG picture of his wife last afternoon until he did not realize the presence of Ara in front of him.
Ara also fell silent to see Gio who had been silently looking at the paper in his hand. Ara was really happy not to play because she was again given trust by God but seeing Gio's reaction made her a little anxious.
"Gii.." call Ara who Gio doesn't respond to at all.
"Not happy?" tanya Ara was timid.
Gio quickly looked up at his wife who was standing while looking down on her finger. Gio's forehead shriveled at Ara's words just now.
"How do you mean?" ask Gio with a flat look.
"You're not happy..."
"Who said you're not happy?" cut Gio fast.
Ara sighed softly trying to hold back her cries. She is afraid that Gio is unhappy with her pregnancy, she is afraid that Gio is not ready and tells her to kill her own child.
"Your reaction made me feel that, from the hospital until now even mother more enthusiastic than you," said Ara with a trembling voice.
Gio let out a rough breath and pulled Ara until his wife sat on his lap and smiled faintly. Who would not be happy if his wife was pregnant.
"Not happy..."
"Keep what?"
Gio was silent looking at his wife's sad face, it was true that he did not express more after knowing his wife was pregnant not because he was not happy but felt not trust. It felt like just yesterday they were getting married and God was so kind as to give them a gift of this magnitude.
"I don't believe it yet, God is so good with me. Thank you for allowing my son to grow in your body" Gio said sincerely.
"Thank you, I'm happy, very happy" Gio kissed Ara's cheek and hugged her tightly.
"Never stay with me, we take care of the baby together,"
Ara nodded with teary eyes, really, today she was so happy that she could no longer express herself to describe her happiness.
"You happy?" ask Gio.
"Very," answered Ara quickly.
The happy mood was so clearly visible on both the faces of the couple. Soon having children and parenthood is a big dream for Ara and Gio after a long separation and losing their first child.
...🌻🌻🌻...
In the evening, Gio and Ara attend Arsal's wedding in one of the luxury buildings not far from their apartment building. Ara looks very beautiful with a long blue dongker dress that looks harmonious with Gio who uses a matching suit. The two now walk into the building with Gio continuing to hold his wife.
"We are just a moment, afraid you are tired later," said Gio, who was immediately embraced by Ara.
"That's mother" pointed Ara at her in-laws who were gathering with Albi and Rini.
"We'll meet Arsal first, run it over to mommy,"
The two stepped towards the temple where Arsal and his wife stood receiving guests. Gio's best friend had never lost her happy smile.
"Come also lo" said Arsal who saw Gio and Ara approaching.
"Congratulations Ar, always happy" said Ara with a happy smile.
"Congratulations" said Gio briefly.
"Thank you for coming. How many envelopes do I have?" ask Arsal seriously.
"Nothing, I don't bring anything" replied Gio ketus.
"No need to eat, watch out for food,"
"What do I want to eat,"
"Gue drag you out,"
"Have it been, both of you. This is Ar," Ara handed over the paperbag she had been carrying since.
"Ape here?"
"Note your debt as long as my best friend," Java Gio.
"Don't fuck,"
"Sir Arsal owes a lot?" asked Naya innocently.
"Yes Nay, Arsal is poor" replied Gio.
"Gii.." rebuked Ara.
"The same wife is afraid" said Arsal.
"Udah ah, I want to go to the mother first. Once again congratulations, good luck always," said Gio so sincere.
After saying that, Gio took his wife's hand and got down from the pelaminan and walked to a place where there was already a father and his mother. Not only his parents, Ken's parents, Ken and his wife, there were even Gea and Dara with their husbands and there was also Rania.
Gio hugged tightly to Ara's waist as he arrived right at the big family gathering. The news is good, Rania who has given birth, Gea and Dara who are now pregnant for several months and Veronica, Ken's wife who is feeding her little daughter who is in Ken's lap. Gio looked at those people one by one. His smile was printed yet very thin.
"How are you doing my father's daughter-in-law and granddaughter?" kevin asked enthusiastically.
Everyone who was there already knew the news of Ara's marriage and pregnancy, all of them were happy even more their relationship was restored.
"Well dad, dede's a healthy baby" replied Ara.
"There are complaints during pregnancy, if there is a mother to check again, will you?" this time Vio spoke up.
"There is no mother, it is Gio who is lemesy and nauseous," replied Ara chuckling softly.
Everyone smiled at Ara's words. Well, Gio followed in his father's footsteps first. Vio said when he was pregnant with Gio, he did not feel anything just Kevin was tormented, like father like son. Everyone is busy talking about anything, from pregnancy, work and more, which makes the group even more fun.
Ara looked at Gio who was standing next to her while talking to their father and co-workers. Seeing Gea being a henchman eating ice cream he also wanted that but he also did not feel good to disturb Gio. Slowly the woman took off Gio's hand and left on her own. So focused Gio shared his story with his business colleagues there he did not realize if his wife had stepped closer to the ice cream stand that was not far from where he stood.
"Good night, Mr. Kevin, long time no see," greeting someone made Kevin and the others turn to see a man who was the same age as Kevin was also wearing a suit was standing near them with a girl they knew so well. Him, Naumi. And the man who came with him was his father. Well, his father was good friends with Kevin and Albi.
"You guys have been a long time?" greet Albi.
"New aja. Your son is now both married yes," said papa Naumi chuckling.
"That's how it is" replied Albi.
"If you're Kevin, how about. Your daughter is married and even pregnant. Soon a grandfather," papa Naumi turned to Kevin who chuckled softly.
Naumi who was standing next to her papa continued to look at Gio with her amazed look. It made Gio uncomfortable with the woman's gaze, he did not like to be stared at like that apart from his wife.
"What about this young master?" asked papa Naumi ended up staring at Gio who had just fallen silent.
"Not have a pair yet?" ask again.
"How about Vin if we just match our son up?" he said while chuckling softly.
Hearing that, Naumi's smile expanded. Everyone looked at Papa Naumi after the sentence he said. Even Gea who had been eating her ice cream choked on hearing that sudden remark.
"But.." Kevin's words were cut off.
"Why, instead of our children still have no partner, so there is no harm, no" said papa Naumi again did not give a chance to Gio or Kevin denied.
Aware of the direction of the conversation that makes Gio uncomfortable, Gio turned his head when he realized his hand was not grasping anything. However, Gio's body was immediately jolted when he saw his wife standing right behind him while holding a cup of ice cream. The bumil's gaze stared at him with a sad look.
"How's Gio, you want to?" asked Papa Naumi again still with a smile to expand it.
Gio did not respond at all, he only focused on his wife who was now looking at him with a sad look. Seeing that, Kevin smiled slightly as he pulled Ara's hand to get closer. After Ara stood beside him, Gio hugged his wife's waist possessively.
"Sorry sir, but my son already has a wife even now is pregnant" Kevin said politely.
Papa Naumi and Naumi round their eyes to hear Kevin's words, they do not know if Gio is married because the news of Gio's marriage is not widespread.
"really? How can?" ask Naumi spontaneously.
"What do you mean?" ketus Rania did not accept the question of Naumi who seemed to offend her brother.
"You're not the one after Gio, why they're married now, pregnant again or maybe not..."
"Take your word to my wife" cut Gio quickly. He did not accept his wife being humiliated like that.
"Once again I hear you talking a no-no to my wife, you take it yourself as a result" said Gio.
"Should Mr. Kevin be more selective in choosing a son-in-law, how can an ordinary person like this be your daughter-in-law and will give birth to your successor later," said papa Naumi bluntly.
Hearing that, Gio's hand was mopped strongly. Not only Gio even the people who were there were also upset by the middle-aged man's words.
"You know what you're about my wife?" gio asked with a sharp look.
"Emm.s-I'm sorry to go to the toilet for a while," said Ara to stop the tension there. She was uneasy and felt uncomfortable being among them after the words from papa Naumi hurt her heart.
Without waiting for anyone's approval, Ara just left the circle, paying attention to the ears and kept walking away from there.
"Gio's after Gio's wife first," said Gio followed Ara.
