Loving the Mafia
Terms of the In-Law

Instantly Rival glanced at Revalina with a sharp glare.

"No, like a child," grumbled Rival with his disheveled face.

"People want to fall too" muttered Revalina.

Slowly he began to lock onto Rival's wheelchair and then moved to sit in the garden chair, facing each other.

Rival began to look back and forth, looking uncomfortable with his sitting position now.

"Mas, are you tired of sitting there?" revalina asked as she continued to stare at Rival.

"If I say yes, what can you do" said Rival.

"Underestimated, gini-gini I also strongly lift you," said Revalina with eye movements and lips softened back the husband.

*You want me to move it to sit next to me?" tanya Revalina at once offered to help him.

Rival immediately shook his head shrouded in fear, seeing Rival's expression unceremoniously making Revalina chuckle for the first time after that incident.

"Somehow you are not sure with me Mas, even though I can,* said Revalina.

"No, it's better to be bored like papa than to follow your words" said Rival ketus.

But still his reticence this time made him not stop chuckling no words entered by tearing the heart.

"Fearless as it may be," ledek Revalina tried to continue to melt the atmosphere.

That morning in the middle of the garden Rival continued to grumble relentlessly, annoyed with Jacob and Sarah who never returned and continued to express his annoyance at Revalina continued. Even so, the two Neutra Revalina could not be seen Rival for a second.

"I can be alone here, you can go home," Rival pushed away in a sharp tone.

Revalina's forehead shriveled sharply. "Where can it be, then there you are kidnapped how."

"Reva, I am not a child like you," Rival replied in a lazy tone.

"From the anger on, look at the cloudy sky, it's not beautiful" said Revalina began to divert Rival's anger.

Unexpectedly Rival wanted to glance at the sky, long enough his neutrals came to look at the cloudy sky before long he looked at Revalina again.

"What a beautiful thing, just ordinary," said Rival.

"How can I explain beauty to a person who is blind in heart," said Revalina smilingly looking at the sky, slowly lowering her gaze towards Rival who suddenly fell silent rigidly.

They were again engaged in a face-to-face fight, at this very moment Revalina longed for Jacob and Sarah suddenly came.

"Hey, if you want to look at the room. Pity in this garden were many single people," Jacob rebuked in a soft tone.

"What the hell," said Rival immediately averted his eyes.

Still in the same garden, Jacob began to take his wife and sisters on a picnic by an artificial lake. Whether when Jacob and Sarah prepared suddenly there was a mat and a lot of food on it, seeing their enthusiasm Revalina began to understand their intentions.

'Looks like Brother Jacob and Brother Sarah want to give me a gap to get back close to Rival, ' Guess Revalina in heart.

"Why the hell should be on the edge of the lake like this, I so up and down the wheelchair," complained Rival with his sour face.

"And there I am Rival, refreshing for a while later somewhat unfortunate we return," said Jacob casually responding to Rival's complaint.

Rival seems forced to obey his brother's will, he finally wants to get off the wheelchair with the help of Jacob and Revalina while Sarah quickly prepares a place for Rival to sit.

"Slow down, sit on this pillow" Sarah said, holding a small pillow for Rival to sit on.

After successfully subduing Rival, they finally sat together staring at the artificial lake in the back garden.

At that time Revalina offered back the mochi that she made early this morning, Jacob and Sarah with his spirit ate voraciously made mochi different from Rival who continued to choose silence and indifference.

"Mas, cobain is your favorite mochi" said Revalina thrust a place to eat with dozens of mochi to Rival.

"No, I don't like mochi" said Rival, turning his eyes away 

"Ah time, the feeling at home is often mochi. Who buys," said Jacob.

"Who, I didn't buy mochi," elak Rival looked at Jacob with a cynical look.

"I can't tell you this is a man" Jacob said, shaking his head.

Revalina just smiled to see Rival back actively talking even though his stiffness and attitude is still clear, he was sure that over time Rival would feel his sincerity to the point of letting go and forgiving him.

By the lake there were many things they talked about, with Jacob and Sarah commanding, Rival opened his mouth. Before long Jacob began to offend something.

"Reva, you're staying with us to help take care of your unruly husband" Jacob said, staring at Revalina.

"Can you please, brother?" asked Revalina with a sharp frown.

"Of course you can" Jacob answered casually.

What makes Revalina very afraid to set foot in their house is because of the Candini ban, her in-laws this one so hate her even just to visit just expelled and scolded all out let alone live one house.

"But Mama certainly can't," guess Revalina sure sure as hell.

"May be sure, let me talk to Mama later," said Jacob no less sure of his words.

Rival continued to be silent, presumably unwilling to discuss this matter.

The days of Revalina continued to bring breakfast to Rival in the same way, sneaking into the house. Until arriving one day as usual he always entered from the back door, sneaking into the room Rival. 

"When do you want to keep this up?" ask someone from behind Revalina.

Revalina's eyes were opened, shocked to hear the sound, which means she is now caught wet. His stooped back immediately stood firm while slowly turning the direction of his body to the source of the sound.

'I am no stranger to the same voice, I resigned, ' said Revalina inwardly as she closed her eyes, preparing her mind to accept the insults and evictions of the in-laws.

Now that he was facing someone, Revalina was still surprised to not expect it right when in her little heart she hoped her guess was wrong.

Candini was standing with her body leaning, while both hands folded forward watching Revalina's action.

"Assalamualaikum, Ma," Revalina's greeting to Candini.

"Waalaikumsalam," answered Candini's greeting, ketus.

Revalina's head immediately lowered, she was afraid of getting a tantrum from Candini. 

"Actually I already know you sneaked into the house from yesterday but I'm trying to give you a chance, I saw Rival want to eat your food so I guess for Rival's sake I'll let you stay here," said Candini with her face flat.

As Revalina's frightened face turned into a cheerful smile, this was what she had been waiting for ever since Jacob promised her that he would stay here with Rival.

"Is she really?" tanya Revalina glee.

"Don't be happy first, I have a condition that you can stay here" continued Candini immediately broke Revalina's excitement.

"What is Ma?" tanya Revalina was worried again.

"You must prepare food every day for everyone in this house, you must take care of Rival as best you can, and lastly you must not fight with Dalsa for any reason," clearly Candini lays out some of the conditions that Revalina must do.

Instantly Revalina swallowed the saliva violently hearing the last condition that Candini described was the most severe condition he did, he said, if it is exchangeable it is better to drain the pool every day than to have to keep his mouth shut not to avenge the fighting fire of Dalsa.

"The choice is in your hands, there is no second offer" said Candini in a sharp tone.

Actually there is no serious consideration for Revalina, he and Chesy have solved the problem between the two and have forgiven each other plus Chesy's condition which immediately improved when peace occurred. 

"Well, Ma. I accept Mama's offer," replied Revalina without hesitation.

That morning after a brief chat with Candini, Revalina rushed to Rival's room. Seeing her sitting on the bed watching television made both corners of her lips attract each other showing the curves of her smile.

'I just realized all along that behind your indifference you still care about me, you still care about me, the proof from the beginning I sneaked into your room you never stirred up to Mama when you could very well do that, ' Revalina said in her heart.

"Why are you smiling like that, crazy?" asked Rival while raising his eyebrows 

Rival stared in confusion and continued to stare where Revalina went, even though Revalina just went to take the usual table Rival gunaksa to eat.

"Oh yes, how are you now Mas, someone is sick?" tanya Revalina started asking questions that she had always repeated lately.

"It hurts, if it doesn't hurt, it's impossible for me to stay in bed this way" replied Rival in a sharp tone.

Hearing that actually Revalina was very sad, but she had to remain cheerful, it was hoped that Rival also did not force the mental state of Rival to return to remember the incident was bad.

As usual when he came to bring food, Rival always ate it greedily even though sometimes embarrassed because of the look of Revalina.

"Why the hell," grumbled Rival glancing sharply at Revalina with a spoon full of food.

"Hemh, I see you like my cooking yes," said Revalina mocked Rival who always refused but ultimately wanted to too.

"No, it's ordinary. It's because I'm just hungry" elak Rival but while continuing to eat the food.

"I don't believe it" said Revalina, shaking her head.

"Sarah's sister said you have trouble eating, even until noon have not eaten," continued Revalina dismantled one by one Rival lie to him.

"Sarah's brother is believed," grumbled Rival.

Seeing the voraciousness of a husband eating food cooked by his wife, made him feel very happy.

"Relax Mas, from today I can cook you from morning until night" Revalina said with a smile on her face.

Rival does not understand, it seems that the disease actually reappears or indeed there is no time to answer Revalina's words.

"Why don't you ask Mas, why can I cook you every day starting today," whined Revalina upset herself as she was talking to herself.

"Tok tok tok tok," the sound of knocking on the door.

"Lake in!" exclaim Revalina did not care about the assumption of the owner of the room who never heard the sound of knocking on the door.

KleKKkkkp.

Slowly the door began to open, it appeared Sarah with a big smile began to enter the room not forgetting she closed the door again.

"Reva, your Umi already knows this good news. He said if you want your Umi can pack some clothes and items you need so just send it here," Sarah told Revalina.

"Thank you but no need to let me pack myself, tell umi Kak" said Revalina with troublesome Uminya.

"Well I say to Jacob, he is talking to your Umi.

Sarah rushed out with the information she got, shortly after Sarah left from before her suddenly Rival attention began to rise.

"What's wrong?" ask Rival curiously.

"There's nothing, just Sister Sarah will tell you, Umi already knows that I want to stay here" replied Revalina clearly.

"Died here?" rival asked confusedly with Revalina's answer.

"Yes" replied Revalina.

Instantly Rival's gaze to Revalina became nanar, surprised at his confession.

"Don't mess around, I don't need you cooking every day without you cooking even I can eat. Don't make things any more cloudy. Cancel that intention of yours," said Rival a little panicked.

"Hahahaha," Revalina let out a laugh at Rival's words to her.

Sontak make Rival confused, do not understand will laugh Revalina.

"I'm just reminding you that you have to rage Mama, yes I better tell you now," said Rival, trying to clarify the purpose of his reprimand earlier.

Unfortunately Revalina already saw from the other side, that Rival was still so concerned with him, but tried to cover Rival in various ways. It felt like yesterday could talk with Rival back as impossible, but it turns out God loves the way for them to be slowly back as before.

"Thank you for your advice but I'd still like to stay here in this room because Mama herself gave me permission so I dare say I want to stay here," revalina said as well as presenting the reason that is not only capitalized on her sadness, so impressed with her sad story.

Even if he could complain, he only complained to Rafa, his older brother who loved him so much. For him the story with Rafa lately wants to be able to raise the mood that has been freefall.

That afternoon after Rival completely finished the food that Revalina brought, Revalina finally came home with only her empty challenger.

As usual she would always say goodbye to her husband, kiss his hand and leave immediately. Simple things like that which he still learns more.

As still wanting to be indifferent in front of Revalina, until now Rival still responds all about Revalina with his sharp face, not too deep when discussing everything including for this time.

Upon Revalina's arrival at home, he immediately got a warm hug from Chesy, he seemed happy to hear the news that of course there was a reduced and added Jacob.

"Umi'm very happy, son, this will be a way for your relationship saka Rival to improve again" said Chesy in the arms of Revalina.

"Yes Umi, thank you this is also thanks to Umi's prayer," said Revalina returned Chesy's embrace tighter.

"Is this a hug not to invite me?" ask Rafa who just got home.

Seeing the presence of Rafa, slowly Revalina and Chesy compact to release each other embrace. Feeling something awkward with Rafa the instant Chesy threw a sharp look in his eyes.

"Assalamualaikum" said Rafa quickly.

"Waalaikumsalam," answered Revalina and Chesy simultaneously.

"What's wrong?" rafa asked back, so curious.

"Your sister from today is allowed to stay at Candini's house" replied Chesy happily.

"Seriously, who told Reva to stay there?" rafa asked, getting curious.

"Candini himself," replied Chesy smiling happily saying this.

"Congratulations Reva, may your relationship with Rival and his family improve" said Rafa congratulated and best wishes for his sister.

"Thank you, sister" said Revalina.

That afternoon Chesy and Rafa were busy helping Revalina pack up some of the things she had to bring there, happy smiles on their faces. Seeing their happiness hearing the news that he was allowed to stay there made Revalina sad, because none of them knew if it had any conditions,

And Candini's only goal for Rival's safety and healing is nothing else than to mean that the consideration for the apologies is locked tightly.

"Well, short clothes like this should also be brought by Reva. Here you wear it at night" said Chesy pulled some clothes out of the wardrobe Revalina.

"Rev, which shoes do you want?" asked Rafa who had just come out of the small room in the bathroom Revalina contained a lot of shoes and sandals. But the two-handed Rival is sometimes all shoes.

"Sister, why do you have shoes. I want to move to stay instead of holiday," Revalina said in a lazy tone.

"Oh, so you don't want to take your shoes?" asked Rival back while staring at the two shoes he was carrying.

"After that, I put it again on that demit shoe rack," said Rival resigned.

Seeing Rival's back go from his eyes, Revalina began to invite Chesy to talk about things that are still in the scope of his attention lately.

"Umi," call Revalina.

"Yes," said Chesy immediately turned his eyes to Revalina.

"When did Mama Candini get out of town?" asked Revalina who imagined it would be so uncomfortable she lived in a hot house-in-law.

"So, I don't know either. But Umi's advice you should be able to take the Rival family's heart and not just the Rival," said Chesy in the last seconds Revalina was in this house.

Indirectly Chesy asked him to face what his responsibilities were, not easy to be a Candini was not easy Revalina knew it but not for the ethics of Candini and Dalsa which is very far from the word educated people, does not reflect it.

"I'm willing to stay there for a while?" ask Revalina to Chesy.

Chesy nodded immediately. "Of course Umi is very sincere."

The gentle sweep of her hands began to land on Revalina's cheeks.
