"Good day, Mr. Sandalwood." Sapa Jovian stretched out her hand.
Which was immediately accepted by the man Jovian knew as a co-worker from his previous boss.
"Jiang, Jovian." He's muttering. "During the time you didn't meet, you seemed a little less well huh!?" His words are full of jokes.
"Due, Sir. There's a little trouble, .. so well don't have time to think about yourself." Jovian chimed in the joke from the man.
"But I'm sure I'm still handsome. Isn't that right, Mr Sandalwood?"
Sandalwood chuckled quite loudly, making his head slightly look back with eyes that also closed.
"You could have. As far as I know your nature is very unfriendly, .. See? But now you're like a professional comedian." Cenda Said.
And that made Jovian laugh.
"Then come!" Jovian immediately invited Cendana.
The person in question nodded, got up from his seat, then walked in tandem with Jovian who was currently about to approach some of the elevator doors lined up.
The tring!!
One of the elevator doors opened, making the two immediately come to the object, to then enter and press one of the buttons and closed the iron door slowly.
"What about your current marriage?" Cendana started the chat.
Jovian turned his head, then showed a happy smile.
"Which is much better now, sir. I found a place to go home, .. a figure that really made me comfortable to stay at home. Then if it's out and gone for some time, then it feels like coming back soon." Jovian explained.
Sandalwood looked nodded.
"How about the wedding? Don't you intend to introduce him to the public? Besides medsos of course."
Jovian smiles.
"The trick is over, .. failed! Because there was a misunderstanding between the two of us."
The middle-aged man with an all-round appearance fell silent. Staring at Jovian with a face that words could not tell.
"And that's what makes you so upset, this!?"
"It's okay, sir. Now everything is much better, .. My wife has just returned home umrah, then she brings good news, if she is pregnant with our baby. It was a bit surprising, but I was happy with the news! At least we won't be completely separated after the trouble we've been through."
The tring!!
The iron box stopped, then opened the door very slowly.
"The ups and downs in the household are common, everything goes back to each of us. To maintain the relationship itself, or not." Cendana.
The two walked out of the elevator together.
"Duh, I'm so venting. Though initially only want to offer an apartment, .. should explain the condition of this place, not about my household." Jovian laughed softly.
Likewise with Cendana, who understood Jovian nervousness when they met again after a long time did not meet.
"It's okay, it seems like our past relationships have made us still feel close today."
Jovian. Then his footsteps stopped right in front of one of the apartment units, then attached his thumb to the automatic lock sensor until it made the object open by itself.
"Please come in, sir." Jovian. "Later the accesses card and other safeguards can be reset, sir." Jovian Bright.
Cendana gave a smile, nodded, who then immediately followed the owner of the unit.
His gaze circulated, staring at a building that did look quite luxurious. The interior is semi-modern, with black, gray and white dominating. Not to forget with every furniture that looks very beautiful and charming in every placement.
"Apartment as good and sophisticated as this you want to sell? No dear?"
Jovian chimed in with a headband.
"I originally wanted to keep it because it's one of the treasures I have. I bought this apartment purely from my savings during my work as Bodyguard Mr. General. But in retrospect, living with something that holds people's memories in the past is also not good, let alone my wife knows."
"It's not complicated. Women's minds are not as easy as we think, ..even they always think things that clearly have nothing to do with us. Didn't you?" Tukas Cendana, who immediately got a nod from Jovian.
Then after that the two switched to discussing other things, while going around looking at a place that did look so neat. Of course, earlier Jovian asked an ordinary janitor to clean the place.
"Surely sold?"
Jovian nodded with confidence.
"If you want to sell, what price do you put?" Sandalwood immediately asked.
Jovian seemed to think.
"According to you, my apartment is worth at what price? I don't expect much, already want someone to buy it I've been relieved because I can really leave this place."
Sandalwood stared fixedly at Jovian. The man looked heart-pounding, probably because Jovian bought him wholeheartedly. But on the other hand Jovian also looks very serious, to make Sandalwood a little confused.
"It's sold along with the contents right?"
"Yes, maybe it's just the stuff in my workspace that's brought in."
"Well then."
Sandalwood put both of his palms in his pants pocket, with a look that re-examined the entire room. Looking at every corner and object there, where the items still look very well maintained.
"Two point five? How's it?"
"According to Mr. Sandalwood himself, how?"
"You asked back."
They both laughed together.
"I'm confused about the price, sir. First I know the Father well, .. so what you think is appropriate."
Sandana nodded her head.
"Do you think the price is worth it? Do not hesitate, you are the owner, this apartment also looks very well maintained. Just tell me, how much do you want to get this apartment out for?"
"Yes already. The price you just say." Jovian smiles.
"Related?"
Jovian nodded while smiling sumringah.
"Yes, if it's a deal. I'll ask people to take out my tools."
Sandalwood reached out why Jovian, who was immediately visible, moved slowly.
"Thank you, sir."
"Not to be confused. If you need any help, just say it."
Jovian smelled a smile.
"i'm serious. Ever since you became one of the ones keeping my partner's family safe. So since then we are also connected, and have a relationship not only just a colleague or between superiors and subordinates, but more."
"Maybe I need your help." Finally Jovian said something that had stuck in his mind.
Sandalwood patted Jovian's shoulder.
"Tell me, whatever it is."
***
At about 16:00 pm Jovian arrived at the residence of his wife's parents.
The man immediately got out of the car, when the four-wheeled vehicle was completely parked neatly with other cars that were also in the garage there.
"Where's kiana?" Jovian asked as he passed Yati who was about to water Herlin's plants.
"There's a top, Den."
"Mother and Mother?" He asked again when he felt the atmosphere of the house was so quiet.
Because usually the two parents will relax in front of the television if the afternoon is like this.
"Not long after Den Jovian left. The same mother also paid to attend the event of one of his business partners."
"Event?"
"Yes, the circumcision of Pak Baskoro's youngest son if it is not heard wrong." Said Yati again, and was immediately answered nodding by the man.
After hearing Yati's explanation. Jovian immediately rushed to the stairs, and ran up to be able to reach the door of the wife's room that seemed closed.
The clamps!!
Jovian pressed the handle of the room door, then pushed it open little by little.
However, he did not get Kiana in there. The bed looks neat and empty, there is only one used mug, and several packages of snacks are wide open.
Jovian approached to make sure. And yes, the contents are still a lot left, maybe Kiana just opened it. But where is that woman?
"Huwek, .. uhuk ... uhuk ... uhuk!!"
Jovian's gaze was immediately fixed on the closed bathroom door. When the faint voice of Kiana sounded inside there. He immediately approached, then entered without knocking on the door first.
He pegged at the doorway, when he found Kiana resting in front of the closet.
Hearing the sound of movement, Kiana immediately turned her head. And how shocked Jovian was when he saw Kiana's state. Pale lips, reddened eyes also glazed.
"Babies?" Jovian ran, then grabbed the wife's body, and helped her to stand up.
"Dizziness." Kiana whispered softly.
"Yes, your face is pale." He leaned over, then lifted Kiana's body, and carried her out from inside there.
"When have you been like this? Why don't you tell me, hum?" He said, while putting Kiana's tiny body on the bed.
Kiana shifted, moving her body to find a comfortable position. While Jovian immediately sat on the edge of the bed, having finished covering Kiana's body with a blanket.
"Either, .. but before I got here I always felt nausea and vomiting in the afternoon while still in Makkah." Kiana tried to remember.
"Want to drink warm water? Or what did you do to ease the initial feeling?"
"Nothing but strawberry ice cream. Or fresh fruits like kiwi, apples and oranges."
Jovian looked at Kiana's face without any expression. However, of course his chest was pounding, feeling a happiness that he could not describe by even beautiful words.
"Darling?" Call Kiana, she grabs Jovian's arm and shakes him.
And Jovian was still silent with uncertain feelings. Obviously, after a long time, finally the call came back to him by the mouth of his wife.
"Honey, .. Let's go get some ice cream and go to the hospital to see an obstetrician." Kiana whined to ask Jovian with a voice that was so spoiled.
A flimsy smile rose at both corners of Jovian's lips.
"Have I gone you eaten the rice?"
Kiana nodded immediately.
"really? Didn't you feel nauseous about breakfast this morning?"
"I forced it, .. and after that Bi Yati provided kiwi for me and her Baby, until we survived the overwhelming nausea." He said while rubbing his stomach.
Make Jovian's smile more visible.
"Well, let's go get some strawberry oak cream."
Jovian almost got up, but Kiana held him back immediately.
"We're leaving after I shave your sideburns first. Then do a little treatment so that the face is not dull like now."
Jovian.
"Did my appearance look bad?"
Kiana nodded, then she got up and came down from the top of the bed.
"You're weird that there's a jamb. Though thin but I don't like it!"
She immediately pulled her husband.
Jovian followed where the wife took him. Feeling a little confused because somehow suddenly Kiana looks okay. Even though a few minutes earlier he looked weak and helpless.
