One week later,
Today Arvan is very lazy to go to the office. She just fell on the bed with Raka. Erina was also not allowed to leave the house.
Erina felt so bored being in the room doing nothing. Rather than just stand idly by, Erina opened the laptop and checked some of the London office files sent by William.
Erina did not want William and Sera to work hard alone there. As much as possible Erina still carries out her obligations even though she does not jump directly into the field.
" Dear, what are you doing...?" asked Arvan who was playing a game with Raka after she had vomited.
" This is just a revision of the data for meetings with clients in London, sis.." replied Erina.
" You want to come with me to London? Don't leave me here alone...?"
" Who's going anyway, brother. Erina's just working on this project from here..."
" The promise will not go? I don't want to be away from you..."
" Why did my husband become so spoiled like this anyway...?"
Arvan sat next to his wife who was still focusing on the laptop in front of him.
" Dear, you'd rather live here or in London...?" asked Arvan who was now leaning on his wife's shoulder.
" I don't know, brother. These are just the bad memories I have. The only good memory is the friendship with Samuel. He made a mistake, but he's still my best friend. He was willing to sacrifice his life for us..."
" All right, let's just wish him all the best, baby. From now on, I'm the one who's gonna take care of you and protect you..."
Erina looked at Arvan who was still leaning on her shoulder with her eyes closed.
" Sister, can Erin speak honestly...?"
" What? just say it, honey..."
" Sister is heavy, long - long Erin can fall if this continues." said Erina while grinning.
" Huft...say you can't...!" sulk Arvan.
" What the hell, brother! Shame on the kid, he's just playing with himself..."
" Bariin, if Raka is used to mama. If you've only been a while, so now you want to settle down with your mom before the second junior comes..."
" Don't start, pa! Mama's at work..."
" Is... Mama is not cool!"
Arvan immediately went up from beside Erina and lay down beside Raka. Before long, the door of the room knocked several times. Very lazily Arvan got up to open it.
" Mom, what's wrong? Come in." said Arvan when he saw his mother at the door.
" No, take Erina down. Your father wants to talk about something." said mother.
" Yes, Arvan call Erina first, ma'am..."
" Yes, mom first..."
Arvan closed the door again and approached his wife who was still seriously working.
" Dear, tell mom to come down. He said there's something you want to talk to us about." said Arvan.
" Yes, I saved the file first." said Erina.
" Raka, what are you going to come down here? Papa and mama have a little need with grandpa..."
" Raka just stay here, pa. Later followed when it was finished playing.." said Raka.

Arvan and Erina were already sitting opposite her parents. They were all silent for a moment before Dad started talking.
" Van, when did you guys move...?" ask Dad.
" Don't know yet, Dad. Arvan's work here is very much." replied Arvan.
" In that case, Erina and Raka will be coming with dad to London tomorrow..."
" No, Dad. Arvan does not want to part with Erina and Raka..."
" But Erina's work in the office is also very much. Clients can withdraw their investment if it's not Erina herself who intervened..."
" Dear, you're not leaving, are you...? At this moment you are pregnant." said Arvan.
Erina was confused as to what to answer, both of them were very important to Erina. He did not want to disappoint his husband or father.
" I can't possibly choose between father or brother Arvan. Don't give a hard choice to Erina." said Erina.
" Well, don't confuse Erina. Give him time to think.." scolded Mother.
" Dear, we've agreed to stay together, right...?" arvan said.
" Give Erina time to think yes...?" Erina looked at her husband.
" Look_..."
" Let your wife alone first, Van.." said Mother.
Erina sat in the backyard with a blank look. His heart is in chaos right now. Erina couldn't pick any of them. Regan's father, the parent figure Erina always dreamed of since childhood. He gave Erina the affection of a real parent to her child. While Arvan, he is the husband and also the father of his children. He also could not possibly leave the person he loved alone. Arvan is the one who can make Erina feel sincere love.
" Mama's crying...?"
Raka wiped the tears off her mother's face. This is what always makes Raka weak, she can not see her mother sad.
" No, sweetheart. Maybe there's dust going into your eyes." Elak Erina.
" Mama was never good at lying in front of Raka. What made my mom cry? The principle of Raka still remains the same, if anyone hurts my mother... Raka would never forgive him..."
" Mama's okay, let's go. Mama wants to go somewhere with you alone..."
" Where are you going, Ma...?"
" You will know, dear..."
Finally Raka followed Erina into the house to take the car keys. Arvan, who had heard it, felt very guilty to see his wife crying.
" I'm sorry, Erin. For the umpteenth time I made you cry. Maybe I'm selfish, but I can't be away from you either.." Arvan said.
Arvan let Erina go. As long as there was Raka accompanying, Arvan felt calm. Arvan will try to understand his wife's wishes and not want to restrain her again.
Now Erina and Raka arrive at Erina's parents' funeral. Erina just groaned in her heart in front of her mother's belly button because she didn't want Raka to hear it.
" If you want to cry, cry. Raka will always be there for mama." said Raka.
" Can you ask for your opinion, baby...?" ask Raka.
" What opinion, Ma...?"
" Regan's grandfather asked me to come back to London tomorrow, but you didn't let me go. Mom doesn't know what to make. Grandpa and papa are equally important to mama, so there's no way you'd choose one of them..."
" Raka could understand my mother's feelings. Raka will go wherever mama goes, so Raka will also think about this problem as soon as possible." said Raka.
Erina smiled with her son's words that made her become calmer. Hugged the child's body tightly.
" Mama is so proud to have a child like you. You always make me proud, baby..."
" Don't you cry anymore, huh...?"
" Yes, honey. My mom won't cry anymore. Especially now that there's your sister that we have to take care of together..."
" Later Raka's younger brother - boy or girl, Ma...?"
" Mama doesn't know, either, baby. Wait a few more months..."
Erina slightly forgot her problem when Raka asked her to tell her about the future that had been waiting.
" Oh yes, dear. We went to Uncle Sam's grave first, right? It's here, all of us go there." Erina asked.
" Yes, Ma..."
Erina again rubbed her parents' gravestones before leaving the place.
" Dad, Mother... Erina and Raka go first. Next time we will come here again." said Erina.
After saying goodbye to the graves of his parents, Erina and Raka immediately went to the tomb of Samuel which is still one area.
When Erina was sprinkling flowers on the red soil, suddenly someone called her.
" Jenner...!"
