"Sir Nala and brother Zayn are cute and adorable, dear?" Loli said as she and Marcell prepared for bed. Mama Dita again asked them to stay the night.
"What's so funny?" asked Marcell quickly, He undoes his intention to relax, inevitably Loli also still survive with a sitting position while leaning on the bed. There was a dislike look on Marcell's face that he caught. Loli frowned, could it be that he had mispronounced?
"Yes their behavior is funny, fighting but it's so sweet" said Loli carefully. Loli grew even more astonished as Marcell stared and smiled suspiciously at her.
"Is it really her behavior or the face of the sister-in-law that you think is funny and adorable?" Loli sighed while shaking her head.
"Papa kemburunya uda very late huh deck?" Loli stared and rubbed his stomach, complaining to the baby about his father's behavior with a very sweet face. Loli didn't expect Marcell to be so excited to see him do this. Because it can be said Loli rarely invite the baby in the stomach to chat if there is Marcell.
"Papa kayak that because papa really love the same mom. Afraid of being taken away by people, papa was also afraid that he still liked the monkey's love" Marcell joined in rubbing Loli's stomach but his face now faced his wife's stomach.
"But mama also love papa, so there is no way mama would want if anyone would take mama from the side of papa. Mama also just likes papa, no one else" said Loli with a blushing face, it turns out she still feels embarrassed to seduce her own husband. While Marcell seemed to float hearing the words of his wife.
"Duh deck papa so bubbling with mama, want to see papa nak?" Marcell looked meaningfully at his wife.
"So before here you've met a baby girl pa" Loli turned her face away. Marcell's eyes made him feel wrong.
"But adek is still kangen same papa ma" Reply Marcell, he kissed while gently rubbing the stomach of the wife.
"You want?" marcell asked again with his deep gaze. If you have been asked this way Loli might reject it, even though Loli shook his head even though Marcell would still do it.
For the second time in Loli's room, the couple crocheted together.

"No hugging" Nala patted Zayn's hand around her stomach. He is still upset with Zayn's behavior that tells his attitude in front of Loli and Marcell and his parents.
"Well, time can't hug his own wife" Zayn further tightened his embrace. Even kissed his cheek until it came down to his wife's neck.
"You're a bad boy, baby. Remember the word mama loh, the same husband should not be fierce later sin" Zayn again landed a kiss on the cheek Nala who still held back the frustration on the man.
"Kalo her husband nyebelin like you're okay. You are so childish. But naturally still a boy, different from the adult Marcell he can treat his wife well can also please his wife continues. So it is natural that his wife is gentle" said Nala ketus. Instantly Zayn released his embrace from Nala's body. He stared bitterly at his wife's disappointment. Calling Marcell's name and comparing him to the man so pierced his heart. Zayn felt Nala throw her pride into the deepest abyss. Nala was really humbling herself.
"You are right Nala. Marcell is amazing, he's mature, he's handsome, he's got everything and I did lose away from him, proving he can win Loli's heart and yours, even when I was my wife, you were still overshadowed by the stories of your past. I'm a loser when I'm paired with Marcell. I don't need to be clear I already know Nala!" Zayn said with great emphasis, eyes and facial expressions withstanding deep wounds and disappointments.
Instantly Nala gasped to hear the words and saw Zayn's expression. She realized that she had hurt her husband. He shouldn't have mentioned Marcell's name in their conversation. The bond between them is still too fragile to discuss such sensitive matters.
"Z-Zayn that's not what I meant" Nala approached Zayn who was now slightly away from her.
"I want you to know Nala, Loli is very gentle. The basic nature of emang uda is so when dealing with anyone including me. But even so have I ever wanted you to be with him, have I ever asked you to be like Loli? no Nala! I'm trying to accept you for who you are because I want my heart to accept you because you're Nala, not because I see Loli's shadow on you!" Nala's heart grew increasingly upset, she had never seen such deep disappointment in Zayn's eyes all this time no matter how rude she behaved and spoke.
"I also want you to accept me as who I am not because I have something in common with Marcell. We must accept each other without the shadow of the past."
Zayn continued, his tone now turned flat and cold.
Nala fell silent. She feels guilty, she should not compare her husband with her ex-lover. Moreover, their marriage occurred because they were forced to also each know that they have not really separated from the past when deciding to undergo this marriage. But Nala is too proud to admit it to Zayn at this time. Her mouth was locked, it was too difficult just to apologize to her husband.
Zayn steps onto the balcony leaving Nala glued alone, Nala wanting to chase but she is scared when Zayn rejects her. He was still not ready to accept rejection from the man, his pride was still too high. Nala chose to leave her husband alone.
Zayn stared at the night sky with a huff, his chest feeling very tight. Several times he breathed a rough breath. His pride was hurt hearing Nala mention Marcell's name. He felt increasingly defeated by his brother-in-law. Marcell not only snatched Loli's heart from his but also still left memories in his wife's heart. He felt degraded by the circumstances.
He can accept Nala's rude attitude all this time, while Nala does not mention other men's names as a comparison especially if comparing her to Marcell, the man who had clearly once thrown himself into such deep self-confidence. And when he was struggling to rebuild his confidence Nala even again destroyed it.
