Although in the kitchen she is not alone, Nayla does everything without asking for help and talking to Lyli. Ever since he had spoken to his mother-in-law and had little understanding of how Al and Quen were related, his mind had now opened up.
"What are you cooking, honey?" clara asked after returning from the back porch.
Nayla looked back, then replied, "Pokcoy oyster sauce and youbg tofu, Ma."
"Order, grandma?"
"Yes, but this Nay cooks a bit, because look at Mas Al yesterday like it."
"Al is whatever you like, Nay. He never protested with anything that was done for him."
Nayla grinned while scratching her non-itchy nape, but while in Japan the man never protested anything he cooked for her. Always eaten and surely finished. Even Nayla herself barely knows what food her husband likes despite being married for three years.
"Lyli, you just clean the house, first, let my kitchen and Nayla do the cleaning" said Clara while cleaning the goldfish scales.
"Good, Mom." The girl went to singleness kitchen while slightly glancing towards Nayla as she passed in front of her.
"You want to be in that, Ma?" ask Nayla wonder. Because he cooked a lot of food. Why did his mother still take out the goldfish from the refrigerator he bought earlier.
"The fish is still fresh, we pepes only, there will be Vico. There will also be guests who will come to dinner with us."
"Who, Ma?" ask Nayla curiously. Guess he is, Quen. But, it seems wrong.
"Later you know, too," replied Clara as she continued her work.
Twenty stabs then all is done, just waiting for the goldfish to cook. Since all the furniture was washed and the kitchen floor was already on the mop, Clara told Nayla to take a bath first, while she was still in the kitchen, waiting.

When Lyli is about to clean up the back porch accidentally she catches the chatter of Al and Vico.
"Seriously Al have you never?" ask Vico who seems curious.
"Don't believe it, is there a yes, a naughty look on my face?" al answered seriously. But, half joking.
"Not that either, anyway. Most people like you are synonymous with the greeting of a land crocodile."
"Damn, you!" cetus Al's. His hand touched the cigarette and the match on the table, picked it up one stick and lit it.
"Where did you go with Mega? So turn it around, huh?"
"Well guess? If you can guess it right, then. For you!" Excited Vico while removing two cinema tickets from his pocket.
Al glanced while playing his cigarette smoke, then smiled slanted a little grinning.
"Because it has to be horror? Not interested in me, just give it to Quen he'll like it."
"Hay, a horror movie is a romantic movie to watch with girls, so pas doi is afraid she will hug us tight, how?"
"Huh, have you ever done that?"
"Same as Mega."
"The rest are most blue movies, and do in the cinema chair with Si...."
Al stopped his conversation when Lyli excused him to clean up the place. In the hearts of the two men allotted, how could any one of them not hear him?
But, safe, Al does not speak strangely, while Vico, he is still single. So, it's only natural.
"In the evening, I'll go back, okay?"
"Where? You don't eat first?"
"No, next time I'll be here for dinner, okay?"
"Oh, Ok. Yes, be careful. Good luck bro!" Excited Al while throwing away the cigarette butts of origin.
Thirteen hours later, the waiting guests arrived. All families are ready to welcome. Only Quen and Alex have yet to arrive. He said, stuck in traffic.
"Yes, donk. It's been smester five." said the woman with the shoulder blade.
"Come, come, sit. How's papa and mama doing, Yun?" greet Vivian to the woman who only came with Candra, her son.
"Mama and papa are fine, Auntie." The woman sat down, looking at Vano, and her gaze was turned aside at Al who had just finished cleaning her body down the stairs with Nayla. Instantly the woman was stunned.
"Hows it? What's the matter of this business first, Yun?" said Vano who made Yuna wake up from her daydream.
"Eh, how good is it? It's up to you." Yuna replied slightly stuttered.
"Eat first, Yuk. The food's cold, you know!" Sahut Clara's.
"Quen hasn't come yet, dear."
"Hadn't been two minutes he'd been here."
And sure enough, from the doorway the girl with the bule man appeared and greeted everyone in the room.
Yuna was stunned when she saw Quen arrive. Then said to Clara and Vano, "Wait, let me guess. This is your pair of kids?"
"My twin brother's boy" Vano joked with a chuckle.
"Basic, old narcissist!" cetus Yuna's.
Followed by laughter by all.
"Al, Quen, baby. Introduce this aunt Yuna, once your papa best friend high school, you know," said Clara introduced her two children to Yuna. Later, he identifies Alex and Nayla as his daughter-in-law.
"Yes my... Van, are you a grandpa?" yuna looked cheerful.
"Yes Clara donk too, she's Grandma. Why is it just me doing it like it's old?"
"Yes, okay. Your love is true and eternal, until your grandparents" said Yuna.
"Already, let's eat first, hunt for cold food!" Vivian.
And they all moved to the dining table to enjoy the dishes that had been prepared since the afternoon. While Yuna's eyes did not take her eyes off of Al and Quen. Vano who realized that, threw his joke.
"Well, look at our son? Want to have a pair of cakes? Make again. Candra has not had a lecture? Husband told me to go home not just around the world saka, Yun. Haha."
"Bas with you, Van. It used to be just as annoying."
After eating and a little chat to get closer between brotherly relations, now Vano di accompanied Al discuss with Yuna. whereas Candra, he chatted on the terrace with Alex with both grandfather, and also his grandmother-in-law.
"That's the camera, Ma? Who the hell, is he?" ask Nayla curiously.
"She's been my best friend since High School" Clara replied.
But, still her daughter-in-law was not satisfied with the answer because, Nayla felt like there was something Clara was hiding.
"Just friends? Not sure, deh Nay, Ma. The way I talk is ok. But I think there's something Mama's hiding."
"Then, they were in a match. Ever fiancee too. But, papap do not want daj still choose mama," replied Clara with a laugh.
"But aunt Yuna wants to be with me?" The woman was getting more curious.
"Obviously, who wouldn't want to be with Papa Vano, he's handsome, right?" clara said with a laugh.
This time Nayla could not comment, in her heart she was amazed by her mother-in-law. Can accept the arrival of her ex-fiancee husband well like a brother. Then, why couldn't he accept Quen and Al's closeness? They grew up together since they were babies in foster care by the same parents despite the fact that different parents.
This is even a dekay friend from High School who does not guarantee that one of them does not grow in love, that his fiancee-in-law could easily let them be in one room. Although there is Al, but, there is a good chance if Al in Japan they are just alone?
"Great Mama, Nay has a lot to learn from Mama." That's the only word that came out of Nayla's lips.
"Nay, you know what the foundation of a relationship is? One believes in each other, two are honest. Papa is married to mama and rejecting other women means there is only mama in his heart, nothing else. Jealousy may be, because if it is not dear love will not be jealous, for example you see sir prosper suddenly pdkt with a young widow, you are ordinary, who there is even support than just widower. Wh why? Because you're not in love. But, if Al is like that? Obviously you'll be angry even to the point of forgetting to do a lot of crazy things. But, being too jealous is also not good, because it will only make our partner become uncomfortable and bored with us."
Nayla was silent for a moment, pondering over every sentence Clara said.
