The first day I met my mother Rendra, everything went smoothly like running water. Aura did not expect to be as comfortable and as comfortable as it was chatting with her mother Rendra. Even his mother Rendra did not ask about who he was, what his job or other things related to him. Rendra's mother only asked about Aura's feelings for Rendra and how she and Rendra met and other discussions.
On the way to Aura's house, Rendra asked about what Aura was talking about with her mother when she left them both.
"What were you talking about?" ask Rendra.
"Many," replied Aura.
"My mom didn't suspect anything, did she?" ask Rendra who is afraid their charade is exposed.
Aura shook her head.
"Good, it means you're working well" Rendra said.
Aura instantly realized something. Yes he was kind to his mother Rendra for being hired. He cannot expect more. But, the attitude of his mother Rendra reminded him of his mother who he always missed.
Aura only replied to him with a smile.
Suddenly Aura made a sound again.
"So your mom asked me to come back home. He said that tomorrow there was an arisan in your house and he wanted to introduce me as your lover in front of his friends. I didn't answer that right away because I had to ask for your approval first" explained Aura.
"Come, because it's my mother's request I don't dare to forbid it. Tomorrow I'll pick you up" replied Rendra.
Aura nodded and turned her face to the car glass. He felt like a dream today. Where he felt valued and considered his presence even though it was above a mere lie.
Rendra's car stopped, which means they have arrived in front of Aura's house.
"Thank you for dropping off" said Aura.
Rendra just shut up and saw Aura then drove her car away from there.
Arriving at home, Rendra was surprised by the sudden presence of Ela in front of him with a terrible look.
"Surge!"
Rendra asked Ela to step aside from him.
"No way!" ela replied that he did not want to leave.
"Haish! What the hell do you want La?" ask Rendra who does not want to argue with her twin.
"Just tell me who your new boyfriend is?" asked Ela in a slightly loud voice.
"Ask my mom. I still have things to do. So, better get out of the way now than I'll carry you and drop you in the pool!" threaten the upset Rendra. At first he thought there was something important that Ela really asked, apparently just wanted to know about who her lover was.
Ela, who heard the threat, moved away by being forced to see the aura of Rendra who wanted to immediately throw herself into the pool.
Rendra immediately walked without looking back.
"Huh! Which other woman would want to date a stiff, cruel, heartless man like you, Rendra?" ela said while looking at Rendra's departure.
Because so curious, Ela finally met her mother who was cooking for dinner..
"Mama!" ela shouted to her mother.
"Geez, baby, don't yell that way! Your age is an adult but your behavior is still like a teenager. Wonder mom," said Naya.
"Hehe."
Ela chuckled softly. Then help her mama cut vegetables. Although not as smart as his mother when it comes to cooking, but Ela knows a little about how to cook.
"Mama, what's Rendra's boyfriend's name?" ask Ela who doesn't like to mince words.
"Aura, her name is Aura" Naya replied.
"aura?" ela said as if she had heard that name. Though in fact, Ela had heard the name, or maybe she forgot, or she did not think that Aura who was the woman she met at the Rendra resort at that time was Rendra's lover.
"The name is no stranger to my ears ma," added Ela again.
"What kind of person is ma?" ask Ela again.
"Beautiful, kind and meek," Naya replied again.
Beautiful, kind, and meek? It's too bad if it has to be juxtaposed with Rendra who is cold, annoying and likes to make people upset.
"Mama agrees with Rendra's choice?" ask Ela again.
"Why should my mom disagree? Whoever you introduce to mama, mama actually agrees as long as the person loves your children sincerely and wants to be responsible. After all, for your own other business that you live it. Mama won't impose your will on you. By choosing your partner yourself, if one day the relationship ends, you can learn from the experience. If you choose mama, you will blame mama" explained Naya.
Ela just nodded to understand the words of the mother.
"When did you bring your daughter-in-law to your mother?" naya asked which made Ela speechless.
Oh, mama just pissed me off. If there is any, I will introduce. But, this is just not visible.

The next day, Aura was actually picked up by Rendra to go to her house. However, Rendra could not accompany Aura because she had to take care of her work in the office.
Aura is now in the kitchen preparing food to be served at his mother Rendra's funeral. Although Naya actually forbids Aura to help her, but Aura still wants to help.
"Tante is not good with you. Aunty invites you to join the parade right to accompany Auntie not to help prepare everything," said Naya.
"It's okay Auntie. I also can't stand by if I just keep quiet. It feels strange and also Auntie looks troubled with everything."
Naya smiled, she could see the sincerity in Aura's heart.
"By the way, there's no aunt's maid in this house?" asked Aura who did not see Naya doing everything alone.
"There, but he's on leave because his family's sick. Maid here only works to clean the house, for kitchen affairs usually Aunt herself takes care of it."
Aura was amazed and impressed by the attitude of her mother Rendra. Although their families are rich, they still want to do everything themselves without asking for help from others.
Suddenly the voices of the people outside the house.
"Let me just open the door Auntie," said Aura when she saw Naya who was a little troubled by the dough.
Aura also went ahead and opened the door to her friends Arisan Rendra.
"Eh," said one of those who was surprised to see a man she had never seen at Naya's house.
"Please enter Aunt, Aunt Naya is waiting for your arrival" said Aura.
They entered the house with questions about who the woman was who opened the door for them. For all they knew, Naya had only one daughter, and they knew her face and knew her daughter. In addition, there are no more young women living there, because Elnan is divorced, and Rendra who still does not have a partner.
"Please sit Aunty," said Aura then leave to the kitchen to help Naya again.
"Thank you Au, Auntie so keep bothering you."
"No Aunty," said Aura who did not feel bothered.
"What's that drink for Auntie's friends?" ask Aura.
"Yes" answered Naya.
"Let me take her in front of Auntie" Naya said. He also brought a tray containing the drink carefully to the living room followed by Naya who brought snacks and other snacks.
