"So you're going to Bali?"
Leni started the conversation again, after they finished having breakfast together at almost nine in the morning today.
"Sir Danu gave it as a gift. One Sunday Kiana and I were in Bali, .. and after that maybe we started to get busy with some things. Moreover, Kiana had to prepare herself for graduation, and I take care of my business now." Jovian.
And the two old men who were currently sitting opposite Kiana and Jovian were just nodding their heads.
"What do you want from Papi and Mami?" Suddenly Leni asked.
The woman looked at the son-in-law with a sincere soothing smile.
"Mmmm, .. don't need Mi!" Reject Kiana while returning Leni's smile.
"It's okay, just ask for what?" Jonathan started to open his voice.
Kiana smiled, then she shook her head, while looking at Jovian who was currently looking at her.
"He doesn't know, Mih. Car's already Om Jovian love, money too. If for a place to stay we can stay in the apartment for a while while spending a little time to buy a house." The woman said.
Leni and Jonathan were silent. They stared at each other in disbelief. Of course, how could the son of a coal entrepreneur think critically like Kiana. Shouldn't Kiana be asking for a lot of things? What kind of vehicles, houses and others did her parents do before they got married, fulfilling every wish of their daughter? Then why is Kiana refusing now? Is the beautiful girl afraid that her husband's family will not be able to?
"It was Jovian who gave. It's from Papi and Mami directly, just say it's okay." Jonathan smiled at his son-in-law.
"Mmmm, .. You're always overreacting!" Kiana chuckles.
"No exaggeration. But we want to give you something more worthy. We gave Eva a lot of things, time's not for you." Reply Leni.
But after that the dining room became quiet. The two men sitting opposite each other looked at each other, while Kiana was silent because she heard her mother-in-law's last words.
"Oh jeez. Mami didn't mean to offend you, Kia!"
Kiana put on a smile.
"What did you give Aunt Eva?" The woman asked that. They also talked about the past, so all of you, Kiana thought.
"It's not exactly Mami and Papi who give voluntarily. But a request from their family." Sergey Jovian.
He's starting to worry. Somehow, but he felt uncomfortable if at this time there must be someone who opened the old story that Jovian was trying to forget, not least his own parents.
"I just want to hear." Kiana looked at Jovian.
"One luxury home unit in an elite cluster, vehicles, money, jewelry and many other demands. So we feel ashamed if the child classmates coal mining entrepreneurs …"
"I don't want to be equated with anyone. Whether it's Aunt Eva or someone else. Kiana remains Kiana, and will be Kiana until anytime, .. I already have whatever I want, so do not bother asking others. Not to underestimate you, Kia knows Mami, Papi as Om Jovian certainly capable. But life is not all about money, .. cars are many, houses and apartments exist. Then I have to ask you something more? Oh, now once I am!" Kiana shook her head.
Leni who had not finished speaking was immediately speechless.
"But if Mami and Papi want to give you something. I'll take anything." Kiana smiled, making the three people who were there able to breathe a sigh of relief.

The open land that a few months ago was planted with carrots and has reached harvest time. Now the area is overgrown with mustard seeds that look still very small. Lined in such a way, so it looks very but.
After a pretty serious conversation, Jovian finally chose to take Kiana quiet in the gazebo behind the house to enjoy the view during the day, with a few jars of pastries and warm tea that Wiwin provided.
"I hope you're not angry." Jovian started the conversation.
Of course he still feels worried. The conversation seemed to show that his family still could not forget his past.
"I'm not angry, I explained!" Kiana said, then sipped her warm tea.
"Yes, but you look upset."
"No. I was just thinking, are you doing everything just because of Aunt Eva? What did you give him, and you have to do the same to me? Then I won't accept it. Money, ring, car I'll give you back. I don't like you doing that just because I have to be more deserving of others."
The woman looked a little disappointed. Even the face of her story instantly disappeared, her mind no longer clear, as the shadows of her husband's past flashed through her mind.
"It's not coming, baby! I just want something that's worth you. Not as you think, .. I just thought, if you used to be able to buy something for Eva. Then why not for you, that's all!"
Kiana nodded. Then he turned his gaze towards Jovian, until the two of them looked at each other.
Jovian was silent for a while.
"I won't answer, we'll fight. If you object to this matter, it's no longer worth discussing."
"But you already know! You've been talking about it from the beginning."
Jovian chose silence. He grabbed his teacup, then drank it slowly, looking straight ahead where his mother's vast estate was located.
"A Jovian Alton. Able to enslave a woman? CK ck ck, .. pity!"
"Take it when I'm stupid." Sergey Jovian.
"really? is he smart now, hum?" Kiana leaned over her body while revealing her sweet smile.
Jovian looked at that pretty face with a flat facial expression.
"First love is a little different, Dad! It makes someone who feels it go crazy, do a lot of stupid things, but they do not feel like they are doing stupidity. Think about! If you hadn't done everything that Aunt Eva's family had asked for, you probably wouldn't seem as sorry right now. I know the nominal is not small, but just let it go!"
Jovian sighed, then the man put the cup down just like that, touched Kiana's shoulder, and pulled the woman into his arms.
"I'm smart. That's why I prefer you over Eva. But it seems like you are a fool, .. Of the many handsome men why should I? The man who entered the age of thirty-eight this year? Will you not regret it? Accompany this aging man?"
Kiana laughed hearing that, then she broke away from Jovian, then shifted to slightly away.
"Then do you want me to choose another man now?" Kiana avenged the ridiculousness that her husband was doing.
"Ohhhhh, .. not for now! You're mine remember! And who has entered my world, he will not be able to get out easily." Jovian lowered his voice, even his facial expression looked more and more serious.
Jovian stuck out his hand, grabbed Kiana's waist, then pulled the woman back closer, even so attached and did not have a distance even if only a few inches.
The cup!!
Jovian kissed his wife's forehead.
"You let Aunt Eva go, even just shut up and do nothing when she files the divorce papers." Kiana laughs.
"Him only. Not with you! I won't just shut up if you do that!" Firmly Jovian while tightening his embrace.
"Times?" Kiana looked up at her husband's handsome face from a very close distance.
"If you're going to do something crazier when I let you down. Then I'll do the same when you try to leave me."
"How is it?"
"Anything. Even I'm going to spend a lot of money, to ask the judge not to grant you your divorce." Jovian looks anxious.
"It can't be. Bribery is not allowed, ... You know?"
Jovian sighed.
"I told you, I don't care. I just want to keep what I now have!" Jovian. "After all, we're just getting married, why is the conversation about divorce." He's a little grumbling.
While Kiana just kept laughing at seeing her husband's annoyed expression which was of course very adorable, yet handsome at the same time.
"Ah you are so handsome. I can't believe you're a thirty-eight year old man." She said she almost whispered, then put her face on her husband's chest.
Kiana closed her eyes, enjoying the gentle breeze that hit her face, as well as the warm embrace of her husband. While Jovian seemed to be smiling, happy he clearly felt this moment and that he felt almost every day.
"It's all because of you." Inner talking.
The cup!!
"Ah I love you so much." Jovian said after kissing her forehead.
