“Hahaha.” Bara's sudden laughter, startling the couple in front of her.
“I'm not a seventeen-year-old boy anymore, Pa. As soon as love, let's get married. I'm almost forty years old. Housekeeping is no longer because of love alone,” explained Bara firmly.
“Love is not my priority anymore. I just want to make my family happy .. son and wife,” continued Bara, staring intently at his former father-in-law.
The man had already stepped away from the couple who had been his in-laws but he turned around again.
“I accept Rania only because my wife is willing to help her, but if her presence becomes a thorn in my household .. I will forcefully return it to you,”. Hurry to meet Bella he left in the car with the driver.
“Daddy, I want to come with Daddy,” screams Rania, suddenly out of the room care Brenda. Running after Bara and clutching the arms of the man she had considered father despite Brenda's repeated description. Rania turns a blind eye, she just wants to have a father like her other friends.
“Do not bother Aunt Bella again.” Bara. At the beginning, he had asked Rania to call Bella Mommy. However, seeing the rejection from Rania at the first meeting, Bara never forced again. Rania has begun to be able to argue, and the girl also began to be critical with various things that she did not like.
“There's your sister in Aunt Bella's stomach. Daddy does not want until something happens,” continued Bara again.
Holding Rania's hand, he was forced to bring the girl home. He doesn't want to argue with Bella anymore. At least for now, during Bella's pregnancy, Bara will comply temporarily. As long as it can be fulfilled, whatever he does for his wife.
Bella was closing her eyes, occasionally massaging her forehead. His head suddenly dizzy, the commotion inside earlier made his body lose balance.
The sound of the car door opening, forced him to open his eyes. Bara was standing by his side and Rania was coming in from the other side door. The girl barged in and sat down next to Bella.
“Pusing again?” tanya Bara, helped massage his wife's temple.
“Slightly, Mas,” sahutnya with spoiled.
“Bell, I have to go to the office for a while. After that we go to your doctor. How?” fresh Bara.
“So Mas only, but Rania has to go to school first.”
Bara turned her eyes to Rania, the girl was leaning spoiled on Bella's arm.
“Ran, you're being escorted by a driver to school, huh? Poor Aunt is sick, Daddy has to take her to the hospital,” pinta Bara, begs. Expect understanding from the girl who is still struggling spoiled in Bella's arms.
With her pouting face Rania nodded. Despite the objections, but Rania could not resist. Earlier, Rania had eavesdropped from behind the room, Bara's threat to Opa and her omana made Rania think again to make trouble. If not, they can be sent home. He still wants to feel the love of Bara.
“Pak, please take Rania to school. Bella will come with me,” Bara's orders, patting Rania on the cheek, encouraging her.
Switch to Bella who still looks limp. “Bell, want to carry?” tanya Bara, already taking a bowing position. Preparing to slip both hands behind his wife's body.
“Do not want .. I walk alone, Mas.” Bella refused shyly, after seeing Mr. Rudi and Rania watching.
“No problem,” tarnish Bara, but the man relented. Leads Bella to her car, smiling at Bella who is sweeter than usual.
Before this, Bella always ketus even reject it. Sometimes also ignore it, do not take care of it as before. He must prepare everything himself now.

Both of them are already sitting sweetly in the black sports car Bara, a vehicle that has always been the mainstay of Bara to drive him to the office.
“Still dizzy?” ask Bara, while installing a seatbelt for his wife.
Bella just shook her head. Her eyes were against her husband's blue eyes. He could see clearly the jawline that looked sexy, tempting to the touch.
This morning her husband looks perfect in his signature black suit. There was fear instantly ambushing him. Had Bara left him and returned to Brenda as Rania wanted. How fate? Moreover, he felt Bara still save a great love for his ex-wife.
“Don't leave me,” whispered she almost wanted to cry. Recalling Rania's request, the fear appeared without her expectation.
“Hey, why are you crying? I'm not that crazy to leave you,” Bara said, smiling.
“Already, sitting sweet in your place. Everything's gonna be fine. No need to think about everything. Just think about your pregnancy. I don't want anything to happen to you guys,” Bara said, trying to calm down.
A kiss was given on Bella's forehead, along with a light kiss on her little lips. Lately they have not had time together and exchanged stories. Bella's mood was fickle, it made it hard to get close. There were times when his wife was sweet but a few seconds later upset without clarity.
“Bell, please don't get too involved with the Brenda family. I'm worried,” said Bara.
“Once Mr. Rudi called me, told me that you were with Rania in the hospital, I was scared. You don't know them. Although I admit they are actually good people, but hearts can change, no one knows.”
“Mas, why do I feel that Rania is weird?”
“Means weird how?” ask Bara wonder.
“What he told you. What did the Brenda family tell you?” ask Bara, panic.
Bara does not want Bella to misunderstand, does not want Bella to hear it unilaterally. His past is too twisted and there are many problems. Even today still shadowing his home life.
“Nothing,” said Bella Singka, but the bad thoughts in her brain were reluctant to stay away.
“What do you want to know from my past and Brenda? I'll tell you everything. After that, there is no need to interfere and get involved. No need to find out. Close your eyes and ears. Trust me all. I won't hurt you,” Bara said.
“I can't trust you anymore, Mas,” said Bella, slowly.
“I should how? Is there anything less than my attitude towards you? My treatment of you is still not enough to prove that you are the most important part of my life, Bell,”
“I want your love, Mas,” whispered Bella, slowly.
“So important is that word in your life? Until you close your eyes to everything I've done for you all along. You know, no matter where you go, I always protect you. Wherever it is. Even I left my job for you,” explained Bara.
“If a word is more important than what I've done for you all this time, it doesn't matter to me. I can say the word love dozens of times, hundreds of times, or thousands of times so you are satisfied to hear it.”
Bella remained silent. This time I spoke so long.
“My mistake was to ignore you for two years of our marriage. I lied to you about Rissa, I betrayed you by playing with Rissa's feelings. I'm sorry for that.
Long Bara was silent, tightening his grip on the steering wheel of the car.
“Bell, if you ask me if I love Brenda first, I will answer yes.”
“What's left now? There aren't. My love is not strong enough to sustain our household. And I learned a lot.”
A tear fell suddenly. Either hurt because of the love that Bara said to Brenda even though it had been years. Or crying because of being scolded by Bara at this time.
“I beg you to trust me at this time. I promise that one day I will say that love really from my heart, not just because my pregnant wife wants to hear it.”
“In our marriage, I started from commitment and responsibility. And I also wish there was love in the end, but I've been hurt. Opening up again takes time. Especially in the middle of the past that hit my life again. I really have to fight for it,” explained Bara.
