When the car driven by Ivory entered the forest area, Naura felt familiar with this place. Yeah, he came here a few times when he was a kid. But he was never allowed to go to the village.
Naura looked out the window of the car. Yeah, he knows where they're going. Is it to the house on the hill?
"We have arrived. Comeondown!"
Naura shocked. Vishnu was standing beside the door that was already open. He came down immediately. Look at the surrounding nature and make it have to breathe heavily. This is where his life will begin. Being the third wife and living in solitude in a deserted village. This plantation area is far from the houses of the people.
A maid immediately came to greet them. Her hair was almost all white.
"Duh Gusti, non. It's been this big. Beautiful and turned out to be a bride."
Naura looked at the old woman in front of her while frowning her forehead. Trying to remember a piece of memory from his memories that are not much in this place.
"Bi Aisa?" naura asked doubtfully.
Bi Aisa nodded. His old eyes even glazed over. "Thank you lady still remembers this little man like me.'
Vishnu noticed how Naura unhesitatingly embraced the old woman. There is no distance between the mistress and her servant.
"Juragan Vishnu, welcome! I am Aisa, the old servant in this house. Mr. Ivory said, I can keep working in this house." Aisa bowed towards Vishnu.
Vishnu stared at Ivory who was standing beside Aisa. "If he has said so, then I believe in his judgment."
Aisa nodded. "All rooms are ready, juragan. The main room is on the second floor. There are 3 rooms on the first floor. Mr. Ivory said it to his first and second wives. So Miss Naura's room is it on the first floor or the second floor?" aisa asked still with a slight bow.
"Naura will be with me in the master room. Put the suitcases and other items" said Vishnu and he immediately entered the house followed by Naura.
Entering the living room, Naura is like reminiscing about her childhood. He once ran down those stairs. Ever played bicycle in the family room until his grandfather had to glare at him because there were guests.
Naura's heart became sad. Memories made him so remember with papa and his mother. As an only child, Naura was indeed very pampered, and was endowed with great affection.
"Want to have tea or coffee?" A servant came closer. His age may not be much different from Naura.
"What's your name?" ask Naura.
"I'm Vienna. The new waiter in this house."
"I don't like to drink coffee or tea at this hour. I don't like to eat sweet things. Thank you, yeah." Pamit Naura then immediately climbed the stairs leading to the second floor.
Vienna stared at Naura's departure while holding a mysterious smile on her lips. Then he went back to the kitchen.
"So what's our mistress going to drink?" asked Mona, one of the maids who was 4 years older than Vienna.
"He doesn't want to drink at this hour and he doesn't like anything sweet. That's what he said."
Mona raised her eyebrows. "Tumben, usually the newlyweds like the sweet."
"Don't talk about the master and mistress behind them. That's not good." Aisa reprimanded the two servants who were only 3 days old working here. They were two girls from different villages. If Vienna he came from the same village as Aisa. Mona from the village next door.
Getting a reprimand from Aisa, the two girls instantly broke away.

After being satisfied with nostalgia around the house, Naura arrived at the main room on the second floor. This room used to be papa's room and his mother's. Naura used to rarely enter this room. But when he saw all the furniture, Naura knew that this was all new. This room model, similar to Vishnu's room in the city.
The bathroom door opens, Vishnu exits the bathroom. Looks like he just finished his shower. The man only wears knee-length jeans without a top. Naura immediately turned her face when she saw the athletic body of Vishnu.
"A satisfied to go around?" vishnu asked while drying his hair with a small towel in his hand.
"Yes. This is my house first."
"Your grandfather sold it to me."
"So now this is yours?"
"It's yours because you're my wife."
Naura smiled slightly laughing at the expression of Vishnu who referred to her as his wife.
Vishnu can read the changes in Naura's face. "Why? Do you still not realize that you are my wife?"
"That's juragan! I will not be your wife forever. I'm sure you'll soon be looking for a fourth wife."
"Why are you so sure?"
"Because you look like a perverted old man. You already have 2 very beautiful wives, still want to marry me."
Vishnu was actually irritated by the words of Naura who called him a perverted old man. But Vishnu did not want to show his emotions that he knew would make Naura happy.
"Did you know that I married you at your grandfather's request?" vishnu asked while throwing the towel in his hand to the dirty laundry basket near the entrance hall to the bathroom.
"I knew. Grandpa told me."
"Goodoo. It should be from there that you can already judge whether I'm a perverted old man or a man trying to save a pregnant girl's self-esteem." Vishnu said slowly, but very sharp to penetrate into the heart of Naura. The girl almost shouted that she was not pregnant. But she tried to control herself because she wanted to get away from her husband.
"You have the right to refuse."
Vishnu smiled a little. "Unfortunately your grandfather's offer has benefited me greatly. Think of this marriage as a charity to me."
"Mazy?"
"Yes. Because I saved your good name, your pride and your well-being."
"So, should I thank you?" asked Naura while looking at Vishnu with a sharp gaze.
"Have you registered your two wives?"
"Yes." Yeah."
"Then I won't go!"
"Why?"
"I'm ashamed to be a third wife."
Vishnu was glued to where he stood. Naura's words somehow pierced her heart deeply. Is Naura ashamed to have her husband?
"Why embarrassed?" Vishnu finally asked.
"Later I was thought to be a matre young girl who was willing to be made a third wife. I don't want to." Naura laid her body down and turned her back to Vishnu.
"If you don't go, you'll be counted as my mistress. Come take a shower and change clothes, I'll wait for you to take it."
"I'm sleepy." Naura closed her eyes. He really feels tired.
"Have you had lunch?"
Naura did not answer. Vishnu turned the step to the other side of the bed so that he could stare at the girl. Naura was completely asleep. A rebellious girl. I can't imagine how he would walk with his stomach growing. Will he still look tomboyish?
Vishnu decided to go alone to the house of the village secretary while carrying their marriage book.
Mr. Somat, the Secretary welcomed Vishnu with kindness.
"Juragan, congratulations on the third marriage."
"Thank you, sir."
Mr. Somat immediately recorded Naura's name in the existing book.
"Is it true that Mr. Zumi's plantation has been purchased by the boss?"
Vishnu nodded.
"Well, the bigger the land that is in this village. Oh yes, is it true that the third wife of the courtier is the grandson of Mr Zumi?"
Vishnu nodded back. The rumors spread quickly.
"It's worth it, Mr. Kades, gets angry. The garden was usually treated by him and his workers. But Mr. Ivory has fired them all."
"I believe in all that Ivory does."
"Juragan, many of the villagers asked me to persuade the boss to become the village chief in Permai Green village. Next year there will be a new village chief election."
Vishnu frowned. "Being the village chief? Sekdes sir, I'm only 30 years old."
"But the boss is a resident of this village. The mansion is here, the largest mole estate in the place." - Mr. Somat looked left and right, as if afraid that someone would listen to his words later. "The head of the village who now has two periods lead this village, but there is nothing he did but use the village funds for his own benefit. Fortunately, the manager gave good wages to the workers, otherwise they must live in poverty and eventually have to owe the village head."
Vishnu took a deep breath. "Maybe it's best for Mr. Somat to be the head of the village."
"I'm old, boss. The village needs a young leader. Who loves his people."
"I don't think I fit in, sir."Vishnu stands. "I'll go home first, okay?" pamit Vishnu.
The ivory who was already waiting for him in front of the car immediately opened the car door when he saw his master approaching.
"We go straight to the mansion on the hill or you want to go to the old house?"
"To the mansion, Ivory."
Ivory also carries the car at moderate speed. Vishnu noticed the scenery along this road. The village is actually prosperous. Not only plantation products, but also there are fish products obtained by the community through the lake that surrounds most of this village.
The people here should be prosperous but some of them already owe to the village chief who bought their crops at a cheap price. Then Vishnu began to buy some fields owned by residents. He also let the old farm owners keep working and processing their crops. Of course Vishnu gave them a decent wage. In the hands of Vishnu, his family's business became more advanced.
When they arrived at the hill house, the mansion looked deserted. Vishnu admired this hilly area. He was about to step into the mansion but his tail was staring at a girl who was riding a bicycle and down a circular path leading to the villa near the lake.
"Naura!" furious with Vishnu because he saw the behavior of the girl who was very dangerous to her womb. Vishnu followed another path, going down the stairs to quickly meet his third wife.
"Naura....!" Vishnu cried when he saw the girl had stopped her bicycle in front of the villa.
Naura. "Juragan's?"
"You really are....!" Vishnu restrained his wrath by clenching his hand.
"Why the hell?" Naura parked the bike she was riding. He came down from above.
"Are you not aware that a young pregnant woman is not.O Allah, there is blood....!" Vishnu shows Naura's bloody white pants on her butt.
"Blood?" Naura tried to look at her white pants. He can't see what's there. Hence the girl walked a little quickly and turned her back to the glass of the villa. He immediately screeched in shock to see there was blood sticking there.
"You miscarried, Naura. Let's go to the hospital." Vishnu unexpectedly carried Naura's body and quickly climbed the stairs.
Shit ! Apparently my monthly guests have arrived.
********
How did Vishnu react when he found out that Naura was not pregnant???
