“Beber tan, Icha want to pay first.” I said goodbye while standing up. Aunt Yuan nodded and let me walk towards the door. Get out of this room which was immediately welcomed by one of the waiters. Knowing I was going to pay, he accompanied me to the cashier.

I handed over the ATM card after hearing the total mentioned, while waiting for the transaction to complete my eyes saw a large wall clock near the circular staircase of the restaurant. The time shows at five in the afternoon, considering that we came here at three o'clock means it did not feel two hours to gather.

It felt like a long time but it actually only took two hours. I don't know what Mom and Daniel will do later but it looks like my plan to bring the family elders in has worked. In this way I have confirmed to mother about my relationship and Bayu also so that mother does not

always accuses me of not giving him money.

“This is returned. Thank you.” This woman's cashier handed me my card with the evidence paper. I nodded and smiled back at him.

When I turned around, my eyes saw Bayu with uncle, aunt and aunt walking towards me. We all walked to the parking lot. Once again I could see Uncle Ben embracing Bayu, both of them were still busy chatting.

When we separated in the parking lot, Uncle Ben seemed not willing to part with Bayu, several times uncle asked us to visit his house.

Then aunt Nuri, aunt Pia and aunt Yuan hugged me in turn. They looked at me and told me a few times I wish I could stay happy like this. These three women also asked that I always tell them that my mother and I are fighting again. Only with this kind of attention do I feel very happy.

Bayu and I waved at the two cars leaving us in the parking lot. Bayu put his arm around my shoulder as we watched the two cars disappear at the turn towards the parking ticket checkpoint.

This man took me near his jeep while he kissed the top of my head several times. He opened the passenger car door to save the gift of Darius he was carrying.

Then Bayu opened the front door for me, I held back my steps as I was about to enter and turned back to him. There's something that's been making me guilty of Bayu.

“What's missing?”

“No! I just feel guilty for you.”

Bayu frowned confusedly. “Why? I don't remember you just offending me.”

It was this meeting that made me sad. I didn't give my best to her, I just involved Bayu with the drama between me and mom.

“Sorry about mom and grandma. I always felt like I wasn't giving you the best. I mean about my family—“

“I understand. You don't have to feel guilty. Nor is my family ideal and perfect. I like Uncle Ben.” anyway Soft spoken wood.

I looked up at him, his fingers stroking slowly at my cheeks. As always, Bayu's eyes always made me want to keep looking at him like this, from his gaze like he gave me a new world.

Then his finger swiped around the corner of my eye until his expression turned even more confused looking at me, as if something was there. “Do you feel unwell?”

I blinked, stunned because Bayu could always read what happened to me even for something like this. As soon as he said it, I realized that my stomach, waist and back hurt more than they did this afternoon.

“Yeah I can't even hide it from you, for something like this.”

“Good. Come to the hospital.”

I held Bayu's hand as this man pushed me back into the car. I shook my head and took a little tiptoe so I could hug her shoulder even though I was wearing heels but she was still taller.

My right hand rubbed the back of his head and neck, just wanting to give him a hug because today he was with me.

Both of Bayu's hands began to respond to my embrace, he hugged my waist, pulling me closer so there was no longer any distance between us. Bayu put his head on my shoulder and he deliberately made his face look for a crack in my neck, then I could feel his nose touching my neck which momentarily made me

goosebumps.

This man inhaled deeply in his breath there as if he liked the smell of my perfume. If you think about it again, the closeness of me and Bayu is more intimate than before. This past week I've always wanted to hug her this tight.

“Let's go. My waist, back and stomach do hurt, but it's normal.”

“Why is it common??” Bayu asked, her warm breath touching the skin of my neck. This man has no intention of letting me go.

“The first day of menstruation is always like this.” I whispered teasing him that I should not have done because Bayu increasingly tightened his embrace, his face did not hesitate to go into the recess of my neck deeper. His behavior makes me more nervous.

“I love the smell of your perfume, also the smell of your hair.” After saying so, Bayu loosened his embrace and peeked at my cheek before he let go of me.

…

As Bayu promised, his jeep car stopped in front of a roadside mini market. I immediately stepped down from his car and went inside without waiting for Bayu who also came in. I asked the clerk where the toilet was before I chose what to buy.

Before coming out of the toilet, I took the time to look at my appearance in the mirror and had to be amazed by the man's sensitivity. She was right, my face looked tired and my eyes were so cute even though today I was wearing more make up than usual.

My still-sick stomach can't be ignored now either, it's been so painful from the previous month. I have to buy herbs and hot drinks here. The Bayu family event in the villa will definitely not be completed today. We will probably stay there.

“You okay?” Bayu asked when he saw me step closer to him in front of the drink rack.

I rubbed my stomach and shook my head. “Should we just cancel this trip?”

“No no! I'll buy something to make the pain less.” Reply quickly.

Bayu looked down and noticed I was still wearing heels and a maroon dress with a long brown blazer. Is she thinking about comfortable clothes now?

“You changed clothes? Your legs don't ache?”

I chuckled softly, exactly what I was thinking. He's a very considerate man. “Later I'll change my shoes. Now let's quickly choose who wants to buy.”

Bayu nodded and I turned to step towards the special drink line for the moon dating. We both chose some snacks and drinks for the trip as well as two warm chocolate drinks.

After Bayu paid for everything, he brought the crackle and I brought two paper cups of our warm drink. I saw him open the passenger door to put our groceries in and get out in my white shoes.

I don't know how many times I've been amazed by his attention. He pushed me slowly to lean against the car door and without telling me he was already crouching in front of me.

“B—let me wear it myself.” My voice sounded nervous. Because of these two drinks in my hand, I can't do anything.

“As long as we are together, I will pamper you.” He said while taking off my heels gently and wearing short socks that were deliberately folded inside the shoes.

I frowned hearing it. “As long as we are together?? You're going?”

Suddenly a feeling of sadness appeared for a moment. What does that mean in his words? Surprisingly Bayu did not reply, he was still silent until he finished helping me change shoes.

The tightness instantly filled my chest cavity, now my throat ached thinking she was going far away. Where's he going? With who? What made him have to go? Is that maybe his hunch??

I quietly watched Bayu who had kept my heels in the back seat of the car and then he closed the door and looked at me. My eyes became blurry because they held back tears.

“What? Why crying? Does your stomach hurt so much?” Jayu asked in panic.

“Where are you going? As long as we are together? A—what's that kind of bad feeling?” My voice sounded quivering but Bayu responded with a laugh.

I frowned in wonder, what's so funny??

“Yes sorry sorry! I think I took the wrong word. I mean, while I'm not working, you know that when I start work, we'll rarely meet. My suspension ends in three days.” I breathed a sigh of relief hearing it.

Bayu is still laughing with my konyolan. I am very sensitive because of the effects of menstruation.

Bayu rubbed the tip of his eye and he took one drink in my right hand. “Newly this time I want my punishment extended. How could I want to part with my beloved even for a moment, hm?”

“Do not be silly!”

I turned around to open the car door, wanting to quickly avoid it because my cheeks were already hot holding in shame. My ears still hear the sound of Bayu's carefree laughter which makes my heart relieved.
