ATIQA
Chapter 71: The Morning Surprise

Mr. Bondan and Ms. Asri were so shocked to hear her daughter's voice from the front of the house. They hurried out and approached Atiqah.

"Mother was so happy to see her coming home" embracing her daughter while stroking her stomach.

"Mba is also mom. Seneeeenggg really" Atiqah embrace her mother's waist back while landing her head to the right shoulder of Asri's mother.

"Sir Ardi" Bondan said hello to Ardi. Hands out with his only son-in-law. "Yok ... log in?! The air is cold, it's not good for your granddaughter" Mr. Bondan invited everyone inside.

Robi, who had just finished her bath, was shocked to see her brother coming home. "Mr ..." Robi hugs Atiqah.

"Where is your school deck?" ask Robi.

"Current mba" Robi replied outlining a hug. "I'd like a nephew soon. I don't want to be called om ah. I was a child, when it was called om" said Robi, 4th grade elementary school kid.

"What does the river want to be called? a sister? I can't dong. Drop om, little om" Atiqah pinched Robi's cheek.

"Gn ..." Robi rubbed her cheek, still not receiving her new call later. They're chuckling.

In the evening, Asri prepared some food for dinner together. Atiqah's parents were delighted to hear that her daughter would be staying there for two months.

"If so, I close the stall first for two months. I want to nemenin mba. It is not good for pregnant women to be alone at home. Later if there is nothing no one knows" said Ms. Asri on the sidelines of dinner together.

"Don't dong ma'am. Two months is long enough. The mother's customers. Mba went to the stall, how was mom?- looked at her mom-Can't Yang?- instead of looking at her husband. Ardi nodded-Can ya ma'am?" Atiqah looked back at her mother.

"Originally you are not tired" Ardi rubbed Atiqah's back.

"Yes .. You sit in the shop. Don't be tired" Bondan responded. Maam Asri nodded in agreement.

"You just sit down. No need to help the mother to serve the buyer" Ms. Asri added again her speech.

"Yes ma'am .. yes"

And finally two days later, Atiqah and Bu Asri had arrived at the stall ushered by Ardi before leaving for school.

"Be careful .. take care of our child. Don't tire! I went to school first" Ardi rubbed Atiqah's head and got back in the car.

Distance of rice stalls owned by Bu Asri not too far from the school. Ardi arrived at exactly 06.55 wib. Five minutes later the school bell rang.

Ardi runs into Lala in the school lobby. Look at each other and Ardi walks ahead.

"So wait!" Lala walked quickly closer to Ardi.

"What?" Ardi thought Lala was no longer Atiqah's friend. He was lazy to just be stale.

"I want to ask about Atiqah" said Lala as he continued walking towards the stairs.

"What do you ask about Atiqah? don't you care anymore?" Ardi blatantly, said with care.

"Emm ... I .. I want to know where Atiqah is? Why isn't she in school anymore?" Lala lowered. Ardi's gaze was really intimidating.

"It's none of your business right now where he is and why he's out of school" Ardi waltzed upstairs to his class. Leaving the silent Lala gawking at Ardi's cynical speech.

The day after school ends. Ardi came to pick Atiqah up to the shop. Without realizing it, Lala followed him from school. Lala stopped the motorcycle at the base across from the school.

"Udah noon. Go home first. You must be tired" Ardi rubbed the top of Atiqah's head. His wife was sitting in a small room that was blocked by a plywood wall.

"Yes .. Mba go home first. Later the father who picked up the mother. Rest at home" Asri came inside after hearing the words of her daughter-in-law.

"I want to take Atiqah to the apartment first is okay ma'am? there's my stuff left behind" Ardi said honestly. His notebook of Osis activities is on the bookshelf.

"Jude .. no papa. Just rest there mba" ma Asri stroked Atiqah's hair.

"Yes mom. Mba said goodbye first" Atiqah kissed the back of her mother's hand, as well as Ardi. Do the same thing.

In the distance Lala is still monitoring Ardi's movements. And instantly, Lala shut her mouth. He was very surprised to see the appearance of Atiqah. Wearing a knee-length yellow dress and showing a distended stomach, although not too big.

"Crazy .. crazy. This is a kebablasan. I did not expect Atiqah would do that until she became pregnant. Sloppy, hypocritical, cheap. Cumshins ..." Lala ilfeel, spit towards the left.

"Oh .. So, they live here. This is spectacular news. Totally beyond suspicion. Cheesy girl" Lala secretly captures the moment when Ardi embraces Atiqah's waist into the apartment lobby.

That afternoon Atiqah was exhausted and immediately fell asleep after getting a massage service from Ardi. Ardi's phone rang, message notification sign.

After opening the message, he clasped his phone tightly. His face turned sour.

📩 Lala

Are you sure it's my brother's son? I'm not sure yes. Brother certainly does not know what is the relationship between Atiqah and Guntur.

Ardi had not had time to reply, Lala had sent another message again.

📩 Lala

Love is not stupid but not stupid. Cibulined same girlfriend herself.

📩 Ardi

You mean what? don't make up a bad story. Take care of your own business. Don't bother me with Atiqah! We are happy.

Ardi throws his cell phone into a single sofa inside his room. Standing staring at the sleeping Atiqah. There was a sense of suspicion after reading the message from Lala.

"Until you betray me, you two are finished. I'm not afraid to make you miserable!" muttered Ardi then went out of the room, opened the refrigerator. Take a bottle of cold mineral water.

Ardi called her in-laws that they weren't back home that night. He promised to take Atiqah to the shop tomorrow.

"What do you want to eat?" tanya Ardi, hugging Atiqah on the bed. His wife is still lazy.

"No idea. I no longer want anything" Atiqah buried her face into Ardi's neck.

"I told my father and mother, we sleep here tonight. Tomorrow morning I'm anther to the stall again" said Ardi, stroking behind Atiqah's hair.

"Why? you want to be friendly? are you afraid you can't be free at home?" atiqah asked, looking up at her husband with a faint smile.

"Well, why?" Ardi stormed Atiqah's neck. His wife screamed and laughed.

"Basic .. pervert. Hahaha .. geez, pardon" Atiqah and Ardi laughed together without knowing anything awaits them tomorrow morning.

*****

Ardi escorted Atiqah into the stall. Ma'am Asri is already inside. Is preparing some cooking to the glass cabinet.

"Bu .. I went to school first. Titip Atiqah ya bu" Ardi said goodbye to his mother-in-law.

"Yes to Ardi. Studying hard. Careful on the road" extended his hand to Ardi. His daughter-in-law kissed the back of the hand.

"I'm leaving first. If there's anything on my phone" Ardi kissed Atiqah's forehead and stroked his wife's distended stomach.

Just a few blocks away, Ardi had arrived at school. Just now his feet stepped inside. All the students looked at him with different expressions.

"Nrank ..." The typhoon ran and whispered something to Ardi.

"Huh??" Ardi was surprised by Typhoon's words. He ran straight to the school.

"Surge .. step aside!" Ardi got rid of some students who shrouded the mading board.

There are 10 photos there. Photos of himself with Atiqah.3 photos in the rice shop owned by Ms. Asri and 7 photos in the apartment lobby. Atiqah's bulging stomach became the talk of one school.

"Suck!!" Ardi cursed and then pulled one by one photo on the wall of the mading.

Seriate...
