Thorny Love

*Chapter 8

"Mas, I'm really happy today. You want to accompany me to the hospital, continue to get word if our baby candidate is all right," said Laila smiling while holding Rama's hand.

Rama did not answer a word what Laila said. He simply smiled as he continued to focus on the path they were walking on at the moment.

Seeing that Rama was silent, Laila turned moody. He felt that Rama had neglected himself. He took off his hand from Rama.

"Aren't you happy, huh?" ask Laila.

"Lho, what are you doing?"

"Yes, you shut up when I talk to you."

"What do I have to answer, La?"

"You're not happy I went to the doctor today, are you. I know that," Laila said in an annoyed tone.

"La, who said I wasn't happy, hem?"

"I said, Mom. Because, I feel like you're with me because you have to."

"Laila, yes. I don't want us to fight anymore. I'm sorry I made you feel uncomfortable."

Now it was Laila's turn not to answer what Rama had said. He was just silent, bowed with a gloomy face.

Seeing that, Rama tried to make Laila happy, for the sake of the baby in Laila's womb. She was afraid that the baby would be okay if Laila's mind was not calm. At least, that's what he heard from the doctor when they were in the hospital earlier.

"La, dong yes. Don't sulk anymore. Do you remind me what the doctor said? Pregnant women should not have much thought. Remind?"

"I wouldn't think much if you didn't start making trouble first, Mom. I was happy at first, but your response made me sad."

"Yes, yes. I was wrong. Ii'm sorry. I promise I won't piss you off again. Now, you tell me what I can do so you can forgive me."

Hearing what Rama said, Laila smiled happily. He who had been bowed while putting on a gloomy face, now turned into a sweet smile while hugging the hand of Rama who was holding the steering wheel of the car.

"You're serious about what you're saying, man?"

"Yes, I'm serious."

"So, I want you to take me home. I want to see what your house and Ziana's mother are like."

"What! You want to go home to me?" rama asked in shock not a bitch.

"What are you surprised about, Mom? I just want to see what your house and Zia's mbak look like. Not going home there. Didn't you say that right now, Zia isn't home. So, there's no harm dong, if I come?"

"But La .... "

Rama was silent for a moment. He thought about every word Laila said. Slowly, his mind justified what Laila had said just now.

'It seems, there is nothing wrong if I invite Laila to come to the house for a while. Didn't Laila just want to see our house? What's wrong with just looking for a minute. Besides, there was no Ziana at home either. When it comes to auntie and Joko sir, they seem like I can manage, ' Rama said in his heart.

"Well, I'll take you back to our house. But just for a minute, yeah."

"You calm down. I just want to look, not to settle down," Laila said with an annoyed face.

Meanwhile, Imah, who was panicking because Zia came home, tried to contact Rama to inform him of Zia's return. But unfortunately, Rama's phone is not active, so Imah panics alone.

Zia who saw Bik Imah was fretting. He smiled a little. He knew what I was trying to do. He walked slowly to ascertain what expression he would show if he saw himself.

"What more aunt?" asked Zia when she was a few steps away from Bik Imah.

"Oh my God, the dislodged molot dislodged," said bik Imah shocked while stroking his chest. Sangking startled bik Imah, he raises his malaise by saying something unclear.

"Oh my goodness, young lady, how come you startle aunty anyway?" ask bik Imah just keep stroking his chest. The rest of the shock was still felt in the heartbeat bik Imah.

Ziana just smiled. He enjoyed the shocked expression that I showed him.

"What kind of aunt, bik? To the point of not realizing that I was behind auntie," said Zia still maintaining her smile.

"Abibi .... "

"A dreamy aunt?" zia asked as if she did not know what Imah was doing.

"Ne-no mistress. The aunt was thinking about what to cook for the young lady's lunch with Lord Rama."

"Owh, I thought auntie was daydreaming again. Yeah, don't bother. I ordered food. After I reconsider, aunt must be tired. So, I decided to order a meal outside."

"Oh, did the lady really order a meal from outside?"

"Yes, bik. I've ordered food from the outside, maybe a little longer will also reach the food I ordered."

"Now, aunty can accompany me to chat. While waiting for the food to come," Zia said with a smile.

"Y-yes, madam."

"Yok bik, we go to the family room. There are many things I want to ask my aunt. Especially about Rama," Zia said as she moved.

"Well ask what, ma'am?" tanya bik Imah increasingly hesitant because of panic.

"There is. Let's go to the family room first. It's not good to talk here," Ziana said as she continued to maintain her smile.
