"Darling, it's Friday. You're not going to pick up Cassie?" riani asked while helping her husband put a tie on this morning.
"No.....!" answer Jack coldly.
"But I missed seeing Cassie. I'm..."
Cup.....
Riani's words stopped because Jack had already kissed her lips gently. "I'm hungry. Let's breakfast!" invite Jack after releasing Riani from a hot kiss this morning.
Riani followed Jack's steps. They went down the stairs together towards the dining room. But when he reached the dining room, all the servants and bodyguards had gathered. Jems held a tart on it with the number 26. Riani surprised. He forgot his birthday today.
"Jack, you know what?" riani asked while looking at Jack.
"Yes. I asked Jems to prepare a surprise this morning, Jack replied, hugging his wife. "Happy birthday, baby."
"Thank you." Riani was very happy. The waiters sang a happy birthday song last year asking Riani to blow out the number 26 candle.
Riani also prayed. For her family as well for Arma and Cassie too.
After that they had breakfast together in the backyard. Riani also received congratulations from her family in Surabaya.
"Darling, where do you want to celebrate your birthday?" jack asked as they were both left at the dinner table.
"Jack, this is already celebrated. How else to celebrate?"
Jack stroked Riani's face while removing the children's hair that covered his wife's face. "I want everyone to know that Jack's wife is happy."
"Then we have dinner together outside. What if we're with Cassie?"
Jack's face immediately turned cold. "We'll eat together, okay?" Jack stood up, peeking at Riani's forehead very gently. "I'm going to work first, right? I'll be home in the afternoon and we'll have a romantic dinner somewhere very beautiful."
"OK baby.....!"
Riani looked at her husband's departure with a sad heart. Riani knows that Jack actually misses Cassie. But he hardens his heart because he is hurt because Cassie prefers to go with the Smith family.
Riani's phone rang. A Videocall call from Cassie.
"Mommy, happy birthday" Cassie said. He was wearing a school uniform. That means he's at school.
"Thank you, baby. Did you not learn?"
"In school there are guests. The students are gathered in the school hall."
"Oh, is that it?"
"Mommy, is there a birthday celebration?"
"No dear. Just wanted breakfast, Leo and the other waiters gave a surprise with a cake made by Jems very tasty. After breakfast together."
"Oh.that's it."
"After night just want to have dinner with daddy."
"Good fun, mommy."
"Yes dear."
"Who's gonna pick up Cassie?"
Riani fell silent. He was confused what to say. "Daddy has an important meeting tonight."
"Daddy doesn't want me to go home, mommy?"
"It's not so dear."
"Yes already. Then I'll just go with Aunt Cecilia. He took me to London today. I'm gonna go into the hall first, mommy. We'll talk again. Yea..."
Riani waved her hand. He can see the face of Cassie who is disappointed because Jack has not picked her up for two weeks.
************
2 months later....
Riani smiled looking at the nursery prepared by Jack himself. He who put the wallpaper on the wall, put the lights, set the decoration until installing the window curtain. This nursery was built next to their bedroom.
The room is designed in blue white and looks very beautiful.
"You likey?" whispered Jack who was out of nowhere had hugged Riani from behind.
Jack stroked Riani's stomach which had now entered 7 months. "Darling, tomorrow we go on vacation, yuk! I want to go to a village and stay there for 3 days."
Riani turned her body. "Tumben's got vacation time."
"We want an anniversary."
"Oh yeah, huh? It doesn't feel like our marriage has been going for a year."
Jack smiled, nodding. "Our marriage has a lot of trials but all of them can be passed together, right, baby?"
"Yes." Yeah."
"Then get the clothes ready."
Jack was about to leave but Riani held her hand. "Jack, she's not Cassie gone and you never picked her up. Aren't you missing?"
"Don't talk Cassie over. You are satisfied almost every day to come to school. Let Cassie be there."
"But Jack, Cassie can't come here alone if we don't pick her up."
Jack would talk but his eyes immediately sparkled to see Riani's stomach moving. "Honey, he's moving. Hello my baby boy!" Jack smiled happily as he placed his hand on Riani's stomach. "He's kicking baby."
"Yes." Yeah." Riani also followed happily even though her heart was very agitated at the thought of Cassie.
***********
The place Jack chooses for their vacation turns out to be in one of the very famous tourist villages in England. Jack rented an ancient house for them to live in here.
"Dear, thank you for bringing me here. This house is very beautiful, the atmosphere of this village is also very pleasant. I love the waterfalls and the river."
Jack looked at his wife with a radiant face. 'Happy wedding anniversary, honey." Then he lowered his head and kissed Riani's lips very gently. Riani welcomed her husband's kiss while wrapping her hands around his neck. The two kissed for so long that Jack finally carried his wife's body and carried Riani on the bed. Riani could understand what her husband wanted.
Since Riani was pregnant, Jack was very gentle with her while making love. And the frequency of their togetherness is sometimes 4 days once a week. That's because Jack is very concerned about Riani's pregnancy.
Now, their marriage is entering a year and they are waiting for the birth of their first child. Riani is very happy even though the existence of Jack and Cassie's relationship is very disturbing.
Jack closed his eyes at the height of the pleasure. He was so satisfied every time he made love to Riani. His wife always looked sexy with her belly.
"Darling, the dede is moving again?" jack asked as he saw that Riani's stomach was moving again.
"Yes. She likes to visit her daddy."
Both are laughing. They really enjoyed the romance at their first wedding anniversary.
After finishing bathing and changing clothes together, Riani and Jack came out of the house to enjoy the afternoon atmosphere in this village. They walk together. Some people who knew Jack even asked for a photo together.
In the center of the village there is a square. There are many villagers because there is a birthday celebration of the village. "Lho, it's Cassie" Riani was surprised to see Cassie there. Just as Riani was about to call out to him, he immediately paused his intention of seeing Cecilia there as well.
Jack was stunned to see his daughter. Cassie's long hair was cut off by a boat. The girl also wears clothes that Jack knows are not Cassie's style. Cassie's hair was even painted in colour and her daughter was already wearing makeup.
Cassie turned to look at Riani and Jack.
"Mommy.....!" Cassie waved her ladder. Riani also returned the wave of the child's hand.
Cecilia saw them. He immediately pulled Cassie's hand away and the boy immediately followed Cecilia's steps.
"justified? Cassie's been brainwashed by them. I don't even know my own son."
Riani looked at Jack. "You still think Cassie's your son? "
"Ri, why talk like that?"
"Cassie wants to be with you. But you never picked her up. How long will you keep your anger on him? Until when are you...., ah.....!" Riani suddenly grabbed her stomach.
"What's the matter, baby?" ask Jack to panic.
"I feel sick. Like a pain in childbirth."
"What?"
