At a boutique, wening looked at the latest collection after finishing discussions with designers. She wanted to make new clothes to attend the wedding reception of her husband's friend's son.
While Cindekia sat on the sofa waiting for her mother-in-law after her body was measured for a dress to be made for her. He was holding back pain in his stomach.
When you don't have money, you love to shop. When he had a lot of money, he became lazy to have new clothes. But his parents forced him.
"Kia, are you okay?" wening asked in a worried tone to see his daughter-in-law who looked pale.
Cindekia fixed her seat, "It's okay Mami,"
"Looks like you're not well," Wening held his daughter-in-law's forehead to feel the heat or not. But he did not know at all how to distinguish fever or not.
"I'm fine Mi, maybe because I'm sleepy." Cindekia stood up from her seat, thinking her in-laws were done and about to go home.
"Come, we have to see a doctor!" Wening immediately led Cindekia out of the boutique. Although he did not like Cindekia to be his daughter-in-law, he could not let his son's wife fall ill either.
"No need Mi," Cindekia held herself back and shook her head in pleading.
"Did you do it on purpose? letting yourself get sick so my son can blame me?" accus Wening.
"What?" hiss Cindekia.
Cindekia finally got into the car. Along the way he kept thinking about how not to go to the hospital. It cannot be caught if you are pregnant. Cindekia realized her mother-in-law also did not want a grandchild from her womb.
"Mommy, I'm fine. We don't need to see a doctor." Cindekia pleaded while gripping the armrest of her chair, enduring the pain.
Wening observed Cindekia, "why are you clean hard?"
Bruk!! Cindekia fell unconscious.

Wening walked into Cindekia's nursery, He sighed in disbelief after hearing the doctor's explanation to him.
The ringing of Cindekia's phone continued to echo, while the owner was unmoved staring at the window of the room. He seems to have no intention of answering his phone call.
"You didn't answer your phone?" wening's questioning voice surprised Cindekia a little.
"Mommy?" Cindekia glanced at her phone screen. Gamya called. He took a deep breath before answering his phone.
"Hallo dear," he said in a spirit tone.
"Baby, what are you doing?" gamya's voice rang out in Cindekia's ears.
"You're with my mom?"
Cindekia nodded even though Gamya did not see it, "yes, we are shopping."
"All right, I'll call you later. Bye." Cindekia's phone connection was decided by Gamya.
"Why didn't you say you were in the hospital?" ask Wening.
Cindekia tried to get up to sit down, "Mommy, I'm just exhausted from lack of sleep. I Don't Want to Worry."
Did she know she was pregnant? inner Wening. She doesn't think Cindekia's pregnancy is good news for her.
Mommy didn't say what? She must have known about my pregnancy. I pretended not to know. Inner Cindekia.
All the way home from the hospital, Wening and Cindekia remained silent. They are not a harmonious couple of in-laws and daughters-in-law.
Wening occasionally glanced at the flat stomach with a little bit of fat belonging to Cindekia and sighed riled. He still does not accept Cindekia as his daughter-in-law, now plus the forerunner of his offspring is in the womb of the woman.
"Cindekia, I don't hate you" Wening said.
"I know, Mommy."
"I just don't like you."
Isn't that the same?
"Even if you're pregnant with my granddaughter, the fact that I don't like you won't change."
Cindekia nodded in honor of Wening's words, "I will still consider Mami to be my parents," Cindekia said with a gentle smile.
"I always take you with me not because I like you, but because you're the one who always sticks to me."
Cindekia smiled broadly in response to Wening. Gamya's spicy talk resembles his mother's. "He. he's.. Mommy, I'm like a leech that's gonna keep sticking."
"You are indeed leeches, parasites that are difficult to remove" Wening said.
Cindekiah rounded his eyes, He had taken the parable wrong. "Sorry Mami, not leeches. But super glue that's hard to remove." Cindekia smiled displaying her teeth.
"I agree more with your previous words."
