Young Couple

Recovered

Rya was still getting intensive care even though her body was already quite good than before. Only the inner wound had not healed yet and it seemed like it would take quite a long time to recover.

Monic and Chandra are seen coming to the hospital to visit Rya. Although they rarely met, it felt normal.

"Can you not know if his stomach is filled?" mama Monic asked when she found out the reason why the daughter was hospitalized. "This is the second pregnancy" she added.

Mama Monic's ultimatum managed to make all the eyes of the people in the room immediately turned to him. Mama Monic's words were as if she did not remember how Rya's first pregnancy was.

But even though their parents always have an opinion and comment that sometimes stifles the chest, lucky young couples always face it with maturity and calm. They never express anger directly in front of them. They are still parents anyway.

"May?" Chandra looked at his wife with a sharp look, then looked back at his daughter who was still lying. "Who are the Barel now?" chandra asked, shifting the awkwardness Monic created.

"Barel with mom, Om.. Uh, max Barel is Mama Rena, pah.." Cih, even Boy until wrong when calling his father-in-law.

"A lot of rest, let me recover.. Later papa nemuin Barel let him not be lonely" said papa Chandra while commenting on a smile. "Boy.. Papa wants to talk to you both, can you?" he added while looking at his only son-in-law.

"Bo-leeeh.." replied Boy while nodding slowly.

And then the next second the two men decided to leave the room, leaving Rya and Mama Monic there who were still equally awkward. That awkwardness makes them just silent in words, not as sloppy as mother and child.

"U-did you eat?" mama Monic asked while looking at Rya and Rya just nodded and said 'Udah' in a soft tone. "Boy already have kids, are you ready?" ask Monic again.

"I'm always ready.I'm never afraid to go through anything, because I have a Boy who loves me very much and is always there beside me." said Rya with a sarcastic tone, with a very sarcastic tone, perhaps those words simultaneously insinuated his stepmother.

A child may often be the cause of domestic arguments. Especially if the actual household partner is still not ready and committed enough to have children. Children are a great responsibility in marriage. But fortunately Rya can bear the responsibility even without prior understanding, although he is still very young to have a child.

"You're great, Rya.. I didn't think you could get through all this.. Mama did not expect that you could be married, take care of husband and child at the same time at a very young age.. You can be a tough mother even if you do not feel the love of a real mother.. Mama is happy with your life now, mama realized mama can never love what you want and need.. But mom always asks you to be happy always.."

Monic shed a single tear. Recalling the story of the past when she took care of the baby from her husband's series marriage. Although he can not fully love Rya, but in his heart there is a glimmer of love for having been with Rya for dozens of years.

"Thank you mama took care of me and raised me, and then let it pass.. Maybe Rya can be like this because of the life experience that became the best teacher.. Rya never regretted or offended anyone.. Rya always tries to be grateful for what the universe has outlined for Rya." Rya replied with a smile. He also recalls the past when Mama Monic took care of him, and Rya is grateful for that.

And the next second they smiled at each other and then hugged each other. 🤗

Boy and Chandra arrive at a cafe not far from the hospital. The men will have a handsome coffee while chatting, an activity they have never done despite having been a family for years.

"What's up, pah? really tumben ngajak Boy coffee, hehe." Boy became the first to open his voice when they were already in the Cafe which is actually a branch owned by Boy.

"Papa just wants to chat with the husband of the son of papa who has succeeded in making the son papa happy" replied Chandra while commenting on a smile. "Thank you, Boy, you already love everything you can't love for Rya.. Love and everything.. Papa is not wrong to leave the responsibility for Rya to you." he added with a grin full of pride, similar to papa Wira's smile in his last seconds.

"Not to overdo it, pah.. What Boy did should have been Boy.. And what Rya received was supposed to be Rya received." said Boy with a smile knot.

"You are so great to live the household as a young couple, papa salut." said Chandra with pride. As a man and as a father, Chandra feels Boy is better at carrying out his duties and responsibilities. "Bravo Boy, take good care of Rya let him get well.. Papa agrees you guys add children so that your family is more colorful" he added.

"We are also a family, Pah, we can make our family colorful without having to wait for Rya to have more children" said Boy.

And now the men seem no longer awkward, have been chatting and expressing opinions. The cold war is over.
