Throw Your Ex In His Place !
Ep. 86
Ardi entered his house with his face still bent. It was like there was a deep disappointment when he felt neglected by his wife. Footsteps towards the kitchen where there was the sound of people talking and followed by laughter afterwards. It was the voice of Dara and Heni's mother.
“Has right he did not answer my call, it was fun playing in the kitchen with Mom,” said Ardi in his heart.
He quickened his pace, then slammed his butt on the dining chair. Acting annoyed he took the glass in front of him and poured water into it. And very quickly Ardi sipped the water until it ran out. Heni's mother who saw the child's behavior only then signaled Dara to approach him.
“Kak Ardi is home? How does his office work?” dara asked as she landed her lips on the back of her husband's hand a sign of respect and affection.
“Good, everything is good,” replied Ardi Ketus.
“If all is well, why is Kak Ardi's face so grim?” ask Dara again, while pricking her husband's cheek with his index finger because of anxiety.
“Nothing, just feel violated,” replied Ardi still pitched.
“Indeed who would dare to be indifferent to our very handsome Vice CEO?” seductive Dara, who was greeted with a smile from Heni's mother.
“The person is...my wife,” Ardi said later.
Hearing Ardi's reply suddenly made Heni's mother laugh, but not with Dara. She was confused to hear the answer from her husband.
“When am I being indifferent to you, Brother?” ask Dara confused.
“Yes, about a few tens of minutes ago. I called you a few times but there was no answer. Is there anything more important than me?” the word Ardi drew Dara's hand until she fell into his lap.
“Kak Ardi, lastin!” said Dara lirih. And Ardi replied by shaking his head. “There's Mom here. I'm ashamed,” continued Dara.
“Then we continue in the room,” whispered Ardi in Dara's ear.
Bugh. Dara hit the chest of Ardi's field with her fist. “Genit!” dara Cibir. Eventually, she was able to break away from her husband's clutches.
“Indeed I was wrong if flirty with my own wife? It's one of the romantic enhancers between the two of us, Ra,” said Ardi trying to seduce.
“If you want to be a poet not here,” ledek Ibu Heni when putting a bowl of vegetable soup favorite of her husband to the table. “Let's go on holiday at Eyang's house. The fresh air is perfect for newlyweds like you. Just don't forget to bring home souvenirs for Mom and Dad.”
“By-by? That's a small thing, ma'am,” said Ardi flicking his finger. “Indeed Mom wants what? We both will bring.”
“Hah?” dara said in shock. His face was red like a boiled shrimp because he heard the sentence that slid straight from his father-in-law's mouth.
“Dad, don't be!” said Heni's mother was a little upset, because again she disturbed her daughter-in-law. “Don't be teased keep his daughter-in-law! Poor, Dad. Look, his face. Red extinguished due to embarrassment.”
“Just if he is like that, Dara looks more beautiful, Mom,” timpal Ardi who makes his wife's face more red.
“Already! Already!” Heni's mother stopped her child's mere tantrum. “Now we eat. Ardi, wake! Wash your hands first. And Dad today only gets half a bowl of soup. It's a punishment because Dad has been bothering the daughter of this most beautiful Mother.”
“Dad only got half a bowl, Mom? Where is enough..” said Adit's father while putting up a face.
“Who told me to keep teasing daughter Mom,” timpal Ibu Heni.
“It's nice to see Mom so dear to Dara. Maybe because I'm the only child in this family. Mother has always wanted to have a daughter. But baby, when I was five, Mom had an accident until her uterus had to be removed. Poor thing. But now Dara's presence in this house is like treating the longing in his heart that he has buried deeply in these decades. Thank you for giving happiness in this house my dear wife, Dara Amelia aka Mrs Seno Ardhibrata,” said Ardi in his heart while continuing to look at three of his favorite people who were at the dinner table.
“Ars! Quickly sit here. Why do you stand there? Please help me seduce your mother,” said Adit's father in a warm tone.
In the dining room of the Brata family, they finish the food with drama and joking. There was joy on their faces. The newlyweds continue to be seduced by Adit's father, which makes Heni's mother increasingly defend her daughter-in-law. Laughter unceasingly echoed in the room. The house now feels warmer after Dara comes and becomes part of the family.
“Ra, don't forget to bring a jacket. In the house Eirkan cold weather. I don't want your daughter to get sick,” said Heni's mother when she helped Dara pack her clothes into a suitcase.
“Iya, Mom. I prepared it, though. I've hung it behind the door. So, tomorrow morning just want to leave we just use,” replied Dara.
“Bring medicines or wind oil also do not forget yes, dear.”
“Iya, my dear mother,” said Dara while hugging the waist of her mother-in-law. “All I have prepared. From thick dressing clothes, drugs, soap, shampoo, and bags to store dirty clothes I have also prepared, Mom. This is my second time to the house of Eyang so I can estimate what we will need there.”
“Smart child,” said Mrs Heni as she gently rubbed the tops of her daughter-in-law's heads.
“I never knew it was this fun to have a mother-in-law. I think it will be like that on television. Who always quarrels with his son-in-law. Because of the love. But it turns out I am even more dear than Ardi's sister who is actually Mother's own biological child,” said Dara.
“Because all this time I only have one child, and it's a boy not a girl. So, now I feel like I have a new child and friends gossip,” said Heni's mother chuckling. “Not. That's not what Mom meant. That means you now have friends to chat with when cooking, making up the house, guts and other women's work. And it seems that the ones who will often fight in this house are Mom and Ardi. Because fighting for attention from you,” continued Mother Heni as she flicked her finger to Dara's tiny nose.
