Kirana, Women of Desire
Chapter 99 - After 40 Days

Jeffran is still waiting faithfully rujak his order, several times he swallowed his spit of distress, felt something stuck in the throat so impatiently want to try the bean seasoning powder that looks very tempting it, he said, with a variety of fresh and varied fruits.

"What fruit, sir?" Ask the seller. Jeff immediately pointed to all the fruits that he thought would be very refreshing if made rujak. The seller's mother immediately made Jeff's order quickly.

It didn't take long, a packet of curry with peanut butter was on hand. He ate it while giving her a red note, but her mother had no change so Jeff gave it to her. He ate it while walking voraciously, even while eating the famous sour young mango, Jeff did not show any expression.

"Dear, will?" Fresh off Jeff, Kirana shook her head. He does not want a rujak now, but either it will be noon or later in the afternoon.

"What's not asem, Mas?" Kirana asked while grinning, the mango fruit will still be sour even though it has been using spice rujak, but Jeff looks very enjoy the rujak.

"Not really Darl, this is sweet fruit. Wanna?"

"No, I haven't eaten. You also have not eaten, directly eat rujak where his seem really sparse."

"Not bad, so try it first, the guava is delicious." Jeff stabs a piece of guava and directs it to Kirana's mouth, the woman eats it. It is delicious and feels fresh, but for his empty stomach this is the culprit of the disease.

"Mas, I want to eat the chicken porridge in front of the compound."

"Can, Honey. We'll stop there, too, Mas will." Kirana just nodded in response, while Jeff again focused on eating pieces of fruit with peanut sauce and brown sugar.

As agreed, Mr. Amar stopped the pace of the luxury iron horse in front of the complex, precisely in front of the chicken porridge which is always crowded by buyers every day, it is said that the chicken porridge is very tasty and different from the others.

"Bang, the porridge is four yes."

"Wrap it, or eat it here?" Ask the porridge seller.

"Eat here, Bang." Answer Kirana. She called her husband and Mr. Amar to come eat the porridge at her place directly. It did not take long, four servings of chicken porridge presented in plain sight. The aroma is out of favor, making the stomach increasingly rumbling. 

It turns out that what distinguishes this porridge from other chicken porridge, one portion of the porridge is equipped with various kinds of satayan, such as quail egg satay, intestines, and intestines, ati ampela and many more options.

"Sate his gut is delicious." Kirana said, she greedily ate the yellow-spiced intestinal satay and fragrant orange leaves.

"Mas prefers quail egg satay, baby."

"Jude, let's eat."

"It's four bowls, who eats two?" Ask Jeffran.

"Yes I'm Mas, I'm pregnant again so eat her two servings." Kirana answered making Jeff chuckle, there's just this wife. But as long as it can make his mood improve, no matter the important food is healthy and prohibited by the doctor.

In short, the three men finished eating their porridge until it was gone, Kirana rubbed her overstuffed stomach. Unlike again with Jeff who immediately looks pale after the car drove back.

"Duhh sick.." Murmuring her, she held back the urge until her face flushed and sweated.

"Mas, what's wrong with you?" Kirana asked as she looked at the handsome man's face flushed with sweat that flooded her forehead.

"Dear God, just a little nauseous." Answer Jeffran slowly. Kirana grabs Jeff's head and massages his forehead gently, while Jeffran sticks his face around Kirana's neck, sniffing the intoxicating scent deeply. And miraculously the nausea was lost instantly, meaning the most powerful drug so as not to nausea is the scent of his wife's body that is always soothing.

In short, the car stopped at the parking lot of the mansion. The two Queen parents, preparing to welcome the pair of people in the doorway, were, the married couple who always seemed harmonious despite building a decades-old household smiled at Jeff and Kirana who got out of the car with Jeff who was fond of his hands.

"Welcome, dear." Carina then hugged Kirana, the woman frowned, what is it? I think there's something pretty bad in here.

"Mama why?"

"You're pregnant with the heir to the Leonard family, happy dear." Said Carina enthusiastically, she even kissed Kirana's face in tears.

"Where do you know?"

"Who else if it wasn't your husband who'd been buckets everywhere." Chirps Radit while smiling amusedly look at Jeff who looks pias.

"You're Mas, always a bucket."

"Well, why the hell is Babe? You are pregnant again."

"Yes yes, so now we're going to the funeral?" Ask Kirana.

"What's your condition? If you are dizzy or weak, you should just stay at home, baby. Remember you're pregnant, have to pay attention to your fetal health." Carina's advice, but Kirana who feels she's doing well chuckles along to the grave of her late sister, Queen.

"Alright, change your clothes first, baby." Carina said, Kirana nodded quickly and went to her room to change into all-black clothes.

"Congratulations, Mr. Jeffran, Daddy's future." Radit said as he patted his son-in-law on the shoulder.

"Of course, son. Then how's your investigation going, has it paid off?" Radit asked, he looked at his son-in-law with a sharp look.

"It's Pah, I'm Jeffran Abian where anyone can hide from me!" Proud Jeff makes a couple compact husband and wife mengebalkan their lips.

In short, they went to the Queen's tomb. Not to forget, flowers and some bouquets to commemorate the four days of the departure of the woman who once inhabited the heart of a Jeffran Abian Leonard. The woman who became Jeff's first love. 

Along the way, Jeff continued to hold Kirana's hand quite tightly, his heart churning. I don't know every time you remember the name Queen, the mood is always a mess. Either because of guilt or what, but surely his heart is always not okay when remembering all about the figure of the woman, their togetherness that feels very short always imprint in the memory of Jeffran.

"What's wrong, I know it's not easy. But strengthen your heart, you can definitely get through all this."

"I know, honey. Even though Queen hurt me in a dirty way, she was still my first love!"

"First love is hard to forget? But my first love is still here, he's the kindest and most responsible person."

"Who, honey?" Jeffran asked, Kirana never said anything about her past.

"You, you are my first love. May it be the last love too" replied Kirana, making Jeff did not think that she was the first love of the beautiful, smart and graceful woman.

"really?"

"Of course, I never loved anyone because I was traumatized by love. I'm just worried that I'm going to experience the way you feel, the victim of depraved male greed! But, after meeting you, exactly after that night I started to feel comfortable and yes finally comfortable it turned into love." Obviously Kirana, made a big smile on Jeff's lips.

"Thank you for making me the first love."

"Together, I'm not asking you to forget your love for Queen's sister, or erase all the memories with her, but after this I hope you can focus on our future and our child's later. Can I ask something like this?"

"Dear, I'll do it." Jeffran replied solemnly, he hugged Kirana and kissed her forehead.

The car stopped at the Jeffran family cemetery, all of Leonard's family were buried here, including the foetus who left at that time. The two couples got down together from the car and walked slowly to the mound of soil that began to dry up, but the flowers still looked fresh.

"Queen, I'm coming." Jeff murmured, he rubbed the late wife's belly button. It still felt wet from the wound that the woman had left, not to mention the dry tears that spilled after her departure, and it does not feel right now exactly four days have a beautiful woman named Queen Ariana left the world filled with this pain.

They sprinkled flowers and doused the mound with water, either Jeff or Kirana did not know why. But Queen's parents did just that, their faces were sad and soon their tears were dripping. So does Kirana, she still remembers the last time she met and talked to Queen. 

The woman was very cheerful as if she did not have any burden that made her heart afraid, nor did Kirana look at that moment, she was so resigned to her life.

Even with her firmness she left her husband to another woman, really for whatever sake considering it all makes Kirana's heart feel tight. Despite only meeting once, Kirana is convinced that Queen is actually a very good woman, only that lust makes her blind and forget logic, pursuing endless worldly satisfaction.

"Sister, I've kept my promise to you. Right now, I am pregnant with your baby. I ask for your permission and your blessing to make our lives happy, you also have to be happy in the realm of eternity, we all love you." Kirana said, she rubbed the Queen's belly button and kissed her deeply.

If you're not, kissing is hard. Only able to smell his navel, want to meet was only able to stare at the mound of land without being able to do anything more. So be grateful when the closest person we are still alive, want to meet we can see him laugh, want to give was very visible in the accept or not, different from giving to people who have gone, just giving a gift in the form of prayer, that was either up or not.

Kirana got up, she saw Jeff's eyes glazed over. If you blink, the tears must have washed his face. Kirana clasped her hands, she smiled then nodded slowly.

"Shed it out, it's okay. Crying is not a big and embarrassing thing" Kirana said, Jeff blinked and sure enough the tears fell instantly. She hugged Kirana tightly, shedding tears and all her grievances in the arms of the woman she now shared.

Before long, there was the sound of the roar of an approaching motorcycle engine. A man in a black suit came in, he was Andre. The man who also loved Queen for several years, and now thanks to Hanna he can gradually erode the name of Queen in his heart.

"Andre.."

"Good day Mama Carin, Papa Radit."

"You here?" Ask Radit.

"Yes of course, I can't miss the forty-day anniversary of the passing of the woman I once loved." Andre answered, everyone was gaping, including Jeffran.

"You mean?"

"Sorry Jeff, I secretly love your late wife. But just love, nothing more." Andre replied, leaving Jeff silent.

"We'll talk about all this later." Jeff replied flatly, then gave Andre space to sprinkle flowers on top of the Queen's belly button.

"Hi Queen, how are you? Well, I've found a girl I think she fits me. It's okay, in this world we're not fools. But as I said on that day, I must have kept it." Andre murmured while rubbing the Queen's navel, honestly his heart felt tight until it did not feel a drop of clear liquid flowing just like that without being prevented.
