Forced to be second
Finally, admit

"Well, I'll admit, it's true that it was you who sent the fruit parcel" Rose replied, lowering her face. Devan smiled, as Rose was finally willing to open up with him, just to find out. Why did Rose hide everything from her husband even from Carnations themselves.

"Why are you hiding everything? Do you know, if the Carnation knows that Mother gives this kind of attention, surely she is very happy, and it gives its own spirit to the Carnation, Mom." said Devan with a fluffy smile, his eyes showed expectantly, that the relationship that had been quite tenuous, could be re-established well.

"I can't," Rose refused softly, even her eyes were already glazed over.

"Why, Mom?" devan asked confused.

"Sa-I was threatened," Rose replied later, leaving Devan stunned.

"Diancam? By who?" devan asked curiously.

"Gita, my long-term daughter," Rose replied, of course to make Devan surprised instead of playing, she did not even expect, if Gita could threaten Rose until Rose really obeyed her orders.

"What is Gita's threat, until Mom really follows what she wants?" devan asked curiously.

Flashbacks

Today, Gita invites Rose to go together. With an alibi to the mall, of course Agam, the father who had been very eager, saw Gita could accept Rose, so happy. Unsuspecting at all, Agam allowed them to leave.

"Gita? Where are we going, son?" rose asked with a confused look. Because the road they passed did not go to one of the shopping centers.

"Mom see," replied Gita with a grinning smile.

"Mom really wants to be close to me?" ask Gita while still focusing on the steering.

"Of course, Son. After all, I already think of you as Mother's child," Rose replied with. A smile that expands.

"I could have, accepted Mom. But, there are conditions," said Gita full of meaning.

Hearing the condition, at first Rose also felt astonished. However, in the end Rose asked as well, what conditions were proposed by the Gita.

"Be like you don't like Carnations, and you hate Carnations so much" Gita said lightly.

"W-what? How's it possible?" rose asked with a confused look. Anyway, Carnation is his daughter.

"So, you don't want to?" the tone of Gita's voice, changed. Makes Rose creep.

"Son, it's not like that. You're Mom's daughter, so it's hard for Mom to choose between you," Rose tries to explain everything to Gita.

"lik! I don't want to see him happy, he's taken everything from me. And he must feel my pain too!" gita exclaimed, making Rose even more afraid. Especially now that they are in the car. Accidentally, they passed in front of the Carnation campus.

"Mom won't follow my conditions? Then don't blame me," Gita added to the speed of her car, Rose saw that there was a Carnation crossing the road. Sontak Rose shouted, asking Gita to stop the car but not ignored.

"Okay, I'll follow your orders!" rosa exclaimed, and at that moment Gita immediately braked her car.

"really?" Gita looked at Rose meaningfully.

"L-yes, I'll do whatever you want" Rose replied.

Gita smiles. "That's a good new mom. All right, let's go shopping now. I also want to introduce someone to, Mother." Gita without guilt and as if nothing had happened earlier, she immediately took her car to the shopping center. This time, Gita took her car carefully.

"What really happened to the Gita? Why is it like this?" mumbling Rose.

Upon arriving at the shopping center, Gita takes Rose to one of the food courts, Gita appears to be looking for someone.

"That's it." Gita immediately pulled Rose's hand, towards one of the tables.

"A-arman?" Rose, look at the man in front of her. Rose remembered that Arman was the girlfriend of Carnations.

"Mom, this is Arman, my girlfriend" Gita said proudly.

"We already know Gita, "Rose replied.

"Gita, why are you related to him? He already has A-'s lover" Rose's speech cut off, because Gita stops him right away.

"Yes, Carnation's lover, right?" gita asked, "But Arman, it's more comfortable with me, Mom." Gita replied with emphasis. Making Rose instantly speechless. Rose doesn't want anything to happen to Carnation, because Rose knows that Gita never plays around with her words.

"Since that time, I have always obeyed the words of Gita, for the sake of protecting Carnations. Defending Gita even though he is wrong, tries to be the Gita's front guard in every way, one thing. I just don't want anything to happen to Carnation" Isak Rose, he told her everything in front of Devan. Devan, looking at her mother-in-law's face, he understood that Rose was being honest right now.

"Yesterday, when Mom was invited to dinner, I wanted to be there. However, I am afraid that the presence of Mother actually messes up your event, you should stay away. But, Mother was also happy when she heard that Carnations were pregnant and were pregnant with future grandchildren. Mother thought, to give him fruit, and hopefully in this way, Mother can channel Mother's affection to Anyelir, although not directly," said Rose, making Devan touched. How not? Rose only wanted to be close to the princess and give that affection to her own daughter, but was not given a chance. Because of the threat given by the Gita.

'You're a really crazy woman, Gita, you're thirsty for vengeance, until you've distanced the relationship between mother and son. They, equally tormented in a longing that never healed, ' Devan inner.

"Mom, from now on just show me, that I love Carnations, show me how much I love them both" Devan said.

Rose shook her head loudly, "No, son. I can't, I'm afraid something bad will happen to Carnations later," Rose said.

"Anyelir, it will be safe in my custody ma'am, I promise," Devan said earnestly.

"Later tonight, come to dinner with Dad," Devan invited his two in-laws to dinner together. This time, there will only be a nuclear family.

"But ...." Rose was doubtful.

"Mom, don't hesitate, when else It will be able to start a relationship with Carnations. I should be able to get up Mom." Devan said trying to encourage her mother-in-law.

"All right, I want to." Finally, Rose wants to come to dinner tonight. Devan hopes that tonight will be a good start for Anyelir and Rose, and hopes that the relationship between Mother and child can return to what it used to be.

Devan is sure, this way the condition of the content of Carnations, will be better. And hope, family relationships can be tightly intertwined. Even better than ready.

There is still hope in Rose's heart, if Gita wants to change and can accept everything that has happened between Rose and Agam before. And hope, that the Gita can accept it as well Carnation, so that they can become family.

Devan, return to his house in a happy mood. The desire of Devan, seeing his wife happy again because of the love and affection of his mother, seems to be really successful. Devan hopes, Gita can accept all these decisions freely, and can dismiss the grudge that has been imprinted in his heart.

When he got home, Devan announced to all the servants that tonight they were going to have dinner. Devan mentioned, the number of guests is not as much as some time ago.

"Eat dinner? This time, who did you invite?" ask Anyelir curious.

"Only two people, and that is a very important guest," Devan replied.

"Who?" Carnations were curious, who was the important guest that her husband meant.

"Secret, the point is that tonight you have to be ready?" said Devan while cupping both cheeks Anyelir.

"Yes," answered Carnations with a fluffy smile.

Devan squatted in front of his wife's stomach, and gave a kiss there.

"How is Papah's son today? Not naughty, right?" ask Devan. He returned to give kisses to his prospective baby.

"Oh yeah, how's the mango?" Devan recalls the mango he left to Felix

"Here, it was brought by Felix," replied Carnations.

"Felix is saying something?" ask Devan.

"There is, about you who met the client," replied Anyelir.

'Kok that anyway?' inner Devan.

"When he came here, didn't you have any guests?" ask Devan.

"There, Nabila. Uh how can you know? You're spying on me, aren't you?" Carnations are suspicious of her husband.

"Don't you, Felix said he said there was a guest of yours, when he came here," Devan lied, but Felix said nothing.

"Oh yes, there is Nabila. But, Felix didn't say anything," Anyelir replied honestly.

'That means, he hasn't apologized yet?' inner Devan gaumat. Devan akhi, Felix is always able in terms of work, but Devan did not expect that Felix sucked in this kind of business.
