Married a Single Mother
MSM 34

There was no choice for Jelita. He eventually follows Raffael away to prepare for his impromptu wedding which will be held later in the afternoon. Arvin as a member of the Jelita family would not want to participate in the wedding of his nephew, although in fact his heart is not willing because of something that he himself does not know what it means.

In the afternoon, Reno, Abi, and Livy have arrived in Jelita's hometown. The three of them came by plane. It's faster than driving alone.

Raffael and Jelita's wedding, which was originally to be held at a luxury hotel, was not finally done. The marriage that is only a few weeks away must be accelerated today because Raffael does not want Mario to be reckless with Jelita.

That afternoon, witnessed by the Raffael family and Arvin, Raffael officially became Jelita's husband. A sigh of relief can Raffael feel. Now, with his new status as Jelita's husband, he is entitled to have the woman completely. But that's not all that Raffael has in mind. But it was easier to protect Jelita than anyone who wanted to harm her. Jelita and Ethan are now officially Raffael's responsibility.

“Congratulations, on your marriage both! May you be happy always.” Arvin said as he patted Raffael's back.

“Thank you, Om!” sahut Raffael with a warm smile at the man who is his wife's uncle status.

Then Arvin's gaze was fixed on Jelita who was standing beside Raffael. The man immediately pulled Jelita into his arms like a father who released his daughter to the man who had confronted her.

Raffael, who was still there, initially thought it was natural. Because Arvin is the younger brother of Jelita's late father. Think of Arvin as his wife's father's replacement. However, seeing the way Arvin hugged his wife, Raffael felt there was something aenh. Moreover, the hug according to him was too long.

“Ehm, we better catch up soon to the dining room only!” raffael said then slowly pulled Jelita from his arms.

Jelita himself was confused about the situation as before, while Arvin tried to be ordinary, then nodded in agreement with Raffael's suggestion to immediately join the dining room.

In the evening, both Raffael's parents and Livy decide to go straight home, while Raffael will go home the next day. She did not tell Mama and her Papa that tomorrow she would accompany Jelita to meet her mother.

After the return of Mama, Papa, and his sister, Raffael invites Jelita and Ethan to stay at the hotel where he stopped. Somehow Raffael feels uncomfortable if he agrees to Arvin's advice to stay there.

Now Raffael, Jelita and Ethan are in the hotel room. Ethan had fallen asleep after a long day, the boy was tired of playing. Even to miss his nap. Maybe Ethan is also feeling happy because he already has a father.

“Let me put Raffael to bed. You clean up before you rest.” Raffael, who is holding Ethan, is about to drop into bed.

Jelita only responds with a nod of the head. He immediately took a change of clothes and took her into the bathroom.really the woman was completely confused and nervous. With her status already being Raffael's wife, she had no idea what she would do after this.whether the man would ask for her right tonight as well.just imagine Jelita suddenly felt afraid. Remembering the bitter incident.

Tok tok tok tok

The knock on the bathroom door made Jelita gasp. Apparently he was in the bathroom too long, until Raffael called him.

“I think you fell asleep here.” said Raffael with a sigh of relief because his wife is fine.

“Sorry, Mas.” Jelita answered with a lowered head, and passed through Raffael just like that.

Raffael knew what made Jelita linger in the bathroom.The woman must have been thinking about something a couple would do on her first night.

After cleaning herself and changing her clothes, Raffael came out of the bathroom and saw Jelita sitting on the sofa holding her phone.

“Contact who? It's already night. better break.”

“Oh, I've reached Bu Alin, Mas. But all of a sudden the call was cut off.” Jelita replied with eyes still on her phone, because she was really nervous to see Raffael who was only wearing shorts and a thin white T-shirt that clearly showed her athletic body.

“Sleep! Maybe Aunt Alin's phone battery runs out.” Raffael grabbed Jelita's phone and placed it on the table, and led the woman up to the bed.

Jelita's getting nervous. Even Raffael's hand could feel immediately that his wife was nervous at the moment. Because Jelita's hands are sweating. There's no way Raffael could have asked for his right tonight, when Ethan was fast asleep.

“You don't be afraid, Jelita! I know what you are thinking and feeling right now. With our legitimate status as husband and wife alone it makes me quite happy. I will not ask for my rights nor force you until you are completely ready.” Raffael holds both of his wife's hands.

The gentle look from Raffael's eyes made Jelita's heart, which had been filled with fear, was now slowly calmer. The woman nodded faintly and showed her smile despite being a little forced.

“Come, we're sleeping! I also want to hug Ethan.”
