Chapters 195. Forgetting Something


Alvaro had just arrived at his house. He saw Fahri's private car parked in the yard. A sign that his family is visiting.


The man got out of his car. As she set her foot down the path, she remembered that today her in-laws came home.


"God! How could I just forget about it" Alvaro said, patting his forehead. He quickened his pace and went straight into the house.


Arriving there, the living room looked very crowded. A large family is gathering at Alvaro's residence. There was laughter from Abian, because Bima who always showed her funny face.


"Mas Varo." Rania immediately moved from her seat when she saw her husband had just returned home.


The pregnant woman took over the briefcase that Alvaro held. Alvaro walked towards his two in-laws who were sitting on separate couches. The man greeted Miss Isna and Mr. Hendrawan.


"When will you get, Pa?" ask Alvaro.


"So late in the afternoon, son." Mr. Hendrawan chimed in while embracing his daughter-in-law's shoulder. Alvaro dropped his ass next to Hendrawan.


"You should have come home early, Varo. I knew my in-laws were going home. Work can be left out the most important thing is family." Fahri advised the child.


"I'm sorry Varo is, Ma, Pa. because Varo doesn't welcome papa and mama." Alvaro smiled while bowing in shame. Actually not not want to welcome his two in-laws come to the house, but the man forgot that today his in-laws will arrive.


"Oh, it's okay. There's no need to bother like that anyway. We're not a top brass who should be given such a special welcome, are we, Pa?" chirps Bu Isna staring at Mr. Hendrawan. And the man wearing glasses perched on his nose nodded his head, confirming the wife's speech.


"Papa .. papa .. look at Abian's brother, he was looking at papa," said Bima who suddenly.


Alvaro stared at his nephew. The man got up from his seat, then took Abian from Arumi's hand, carefully holding his twin son.


"Abian why did you see uncle earlier?" alvaro asked as he looked at his nephew.


Abian blinked his eyes a few times, then laughed, revealing the milk teeth that had begun to grow in front of him.


Alvira saw it just smiling. He knew the boy's gaze on Alvaro was as if he was looking at his father. The little boy may understand, during his birth into this world, he only saw his mother, not his father.


Ever since Andre was arrested, Alvira never even looked at the man. The heartache described by Andre was too deep, making it difficult for Alvira to forgive the man. Seeing Andre's face it felt like Alvira was upset and recalled the old wounds she suffered.


Alvaro held Abian, taking the boy along with him to sit on the sofa. Sometimes he grabs the son of Alvira, showing his funny face that can make Abian laugh.


Rania saw the sight. He was imagining if the carrying Alvaro was his son later. The child who is currently still residing in his stomach, and only just count the days according to the estimates of the doctor, the child will be born.


"Why? So can't wait to give birth to see Alvaro like that?" whispered Arumi who was right next to her daughter-in-law.


Rania reviewed the smile, then nodded. "Yes, Ma. Alvaro would be very happy if our son were born. Seeing him carry Abian alone, makes my heart feel warm," said Rania softly.


"of course. Alvaro will be very happy with that. Even when he often told stories with his mother, he always said that the birth of his son was always anticipated," said Arumi.


After holding Abian for a long time, Alvaro again gave the baby to Alvira.


"Varo took a shower for a second, Ma, Pa." The man asked for permission to resign first, because he remembered himself who had just returned from the office.


"Yes, take a shower first." Arumi said to her son.


Rania who still holds Alvaro's briefcase also moved from her seat.


Rania also nodded obediently. After giving the bag to her husband, she returned to occupy the chair.


"So, you guys moved downstairs?" ask Arumi to her daughter-in-law.


"Yes, Ma. Mas Varo told me not to go up and down stairs too often. He was also still a little scared after the Bima incident yesterday" explained Rania.


"Yes, it should be. Moreover, your pregnancy is already very large. And you're pregnant with twins. Of course it will feel very heavy if you have to go up and down stairs," said Arumi.


"Actually Nak Varo was too pampering our son. Actually it's okay if Rania goes up and down the stairs. At least he can exercise a little with that right. Since she was pregnant, Rania slept too much. I am afraid that later Rania will be difficult to give birth, considering that she is not too much activity," said Bu Isna who worried about Rania's condition.


"Actually it's true. But our son loved Ms. Isna's daughter very much, he was afraid of things that would not be desired later. Seeing Bima who had fallen from the stairs yesterday, could have made Alvaro anxious. Especially at this time the wife is also in a big pregnancy," replied Arumi.


"Just pray, hopefully Rania's labor goes well" continued Arumi. Miss Isna and the others nodded in agreement with Arumi's words.


They also talked about other conversations. Until Alvaro who has finished bathing and changing his clothes joined the conversation.


The atmosphere of the night was not spared from the babble Bima who continued to tell about many things. And everyone became a loyal listener for the boy. Sometimes Bima sat between his grandfathers, then moved to sit between his grandmothers.


When the time showed at 9 pm, Fahri also invited Arumi home because it was already night. Considering tomorrow Bima has to go to school. Moreover, Bima who did look sleepy, deliberately he held it just because he wanted to play with Abian.


"Mama and papa go home first, son. It's night anyway. Bima also has to go to school tomorrow" said Arumi bidding farewell with Varo and also Rania.


"Bu Isna, let's go to my place tomorrow. Mr Hendrawan too!" said Arumi invites both of his besi to visit the main house.


"Yes, Mom. Maybe tomorrow yes" said Miss Isna.


"Yes, Mom. If tonight you have to sleep first" said Arumi as she nudged Bu Isna's arm. Arumi is also very happy with the existence of Miss Isna. At least he had a friend of his age.


"Yuk sir, Buk, we say goodbye first," said Fahri greeting the two besan.


Fahri and the others walked out and got into the car. Their departure is carried forward. Bima waved her hand as the car started to go.


"Pa, Ma, Bima wants to sleep with grandma. It's okay, right?" bima asked for permission from both of her parents.


"Later grandma and grandpa sleep narrow because there is Bima," said Alvaro.


"What is narrow? The bed was so narrow. Bima just sleep with us" said Ms. Isna.


"Yes right." Hendrawan also added.


"Yes already then. Milky sleep don't be naughty, son. Do not forget to wash your feet and brush your teeth" said Alvaro.


"Ready Pa!" timpal Bima excited. The boy, holding the hands of his grandparents, walked to the room.


Rania and Alvaro also threw their eyes at each other, then reviewed the smile as they stepped into the house.
