Marrying the Old Virgin
Difficult Connect

That night Bian and Alisha restart their deep talk after the biggest quarrel they had ever had during a household. They agreed to solve every problem that arose at that time.

Alisha invites Bian to stay in the room without thinking about anything other than them. They even turned off their phones so that no one would interrupt the conversation. Alisha used this opportunity to express what had been troubling her mind all along.

“Honey, I'm sorry yes. But I want to talk to you” said Alisha slowly.

“Hm? By the way, baby!” reply Bian.

“I can't ask you not to come home again?”

“I know it's your job, but sometimes I'm afraid of being alone” Alisha said with her head down.

Bian smiled anxiously at his wife who was so slowly speaking his mind, as if afraid that she would scold him again. Bian hugged his wife warmly.

“Iyaa, I won't be home tonight. Very sorry my wife is alone” said Bian in a funny tone.

“Where did you learn that?” alisha asked astonished to hear her husband speaking in a shrouded tone.

Bian just laughed and instead offered to stay at his parents' house. Alisha was a little doubtful of that. She was not ready to meet her mother-in-law. But if he were to reject Bian's offer, he would suspect him even more.

“Why? You still scared of mama?” ask Bian.

“Eng. Only if mama is still angry again, I am afraid to be stressed.”

Bian nodded in agreement with Alisha's words. He tried to think of another option.

“What do we ask to stay here?” ask Bian.

“Buk?”

Alisha seemed to think for a long time. Actually, he not only thought about the problem of his solitude if Bian left to work, but he often felt uncomfortable every time he looked out, towards the page where Diandra's life ended.

Alisha's silence made Bian repeat his question.

“Why? Anything else you want to say?” ask Bian.

Alisha forced herself to dare to say it. He does not want the little things that are hidden from the couple, will hurt them both someday. Alisha said she wanted to move out of the house. Not out of fear of subtle creatures or anything like that. He just felt uncomfortable in that house.

Thankfully, Bian's response was not what Alisha had expected. She thought her husband would nag her for asking her to move out of the blue. It turned out that Bian casually said he would think about it soon.

“Still, dear.”

“There again?” ask Bian.

“Hm? What do you mean?”

“No more, do you want to say the same to me?”

Alisha pursed her lips, because what she still had left behind and wanted to say was something that would make her seem like a possessive wife.

“I don't like the Diamond call you ‘mas’” replied Alisha.

“Hah?”

Bian laughed out loud for almost a minute. He could feel the peak of his wife's annoyance was just this.

“You're jealous?” ask Bian.

“Cih, even though he is the same age, why call mas?” grouse Alisha.

“Then you call us also!” timpal Bian's.

“Hah? ‘Juga’? You want him to call you so?” yelling Alisha while hitting Bian's chest.

“No, no. I'll say the same to him to call me DAD!” Bian gave a special note to the word ‘Bapak’ to convince his jealous wife.

“Cih!”

“You don't want to try calling me gakek mas? Mas Bian so” asked Bian while holding back his laughter.

Alisha was quite surprised by Bian's request. He kept urging her to call him “mas”. Bian seems to know that it is on Alisha's wish list if she has a partner. Since High School, Alisha wants to have a boyfriend older than her. Five years is what has been his dream.

Alisha considers someone five years older than her to be the right type of partner for her. She wants to be cuddled and cuddled by her lover. But what he got was a man younger than him. I don't know what makes Bian like and accept it, but slowly Alisha forgets her dreams. Bian was enough to give him happiness despite his age two years younger than him. He is very able to understand Alisha and all her circumstances.

Calling a partner with the name “mas” is also part of his dream so far. The halmeneh so can make Alisha happy. Of course he could do that to Bian, calling him so was not a difficult thing. It's just that he feels a little strange.

Cuph

Alisha was surprised and turned towards Bian who suddenly gave her a peck of cheek.

“You even bengong sih” said Bian.

“More than thinking, huh? Shame to call me that? Because I'm younger?” continued again.

“Not. Just have often used ‘sayang’ so it is a bit awkward aja” replied Alisha.

“Try deh!”

Alisha was doubtful. His mouth suddenly found it difficult to say a word that should be very easy.

“Iyaa, ma.”

Alisha teases Bian who is waiting with a cute expression.

“Maa.ss..Bian!”

“Kok is?” bian protest.

Finally because Bian sulks, Alisha complies with him by calling him “Mas Bian”. Seeing the face of her husband who immediately sumringah, Alisha felt relieved. Finally, everything that had been a burden on her mind so far, she could speak and finish with her husband. Even if he had to spice it up with such trivial discussions, he would not mind as long as the matter did not leave his household cracked let alone messy. And that night's deep talk ended well.

***

It took four months before Bian finally decided to sell the house. They decided to stay at Alisha's house. Although Alisha feels a little bad because her house is too small for the size of a person as rich as Bian, but her husband continues to say that he is fine with it.

Bian is also active in his company. After convincing Alisha that she would not do things that hurt her heart, Alisha finally gave her permission to return to work despite having to leave her in the middle of her growing pregnancy. But still, Alisha's jealousy and envy still nested and disturbed her.

“Don't come home late again ya!” alisha said with her face.

“Iyaa. But today I will meet Diamond again. There's unfinished business.”

Before Bian finished his sentence, Alisha seemed to be interrupting him. But Bian immediately gave him understanding. He immediately added that his meeting with Berlian would not do it alone, but with David and several other shareholders.

Although embarrassed for being a possessive wife, but Alisha is quite happy to hear it. At least he knows that Bian won't let him down.

The matter of Diandra's case was finally officially closed with the conclusion that he had indeed eliminated himself. Bian and David were also found to have no correlation whatsoever to Diandra's death. The only remaining problem is Alisha who still keeps a secret that her mother-in-law is the mastermind of the kidnapping.

Once at the office, Bian met his mother who had been waiting for an hour in his room. Just like Bian's attitude is still cold to his mother, Mama Liana is also still the same. He still has not accepted Alisha as his son-in-law. Even when she learned that Bian would have a child with Alisha, she still thought her daughter-in-law was a pest and pest that disturbed her family.

“What's mommy doing here?” ask Bian.

“Mama wants to check our investor reports. Have you found it?”

“Already.”

“Who is it? Does mama know?” ask again.

Bian did not answer. He continued to concern himself with the files he would carry. And as her mother kept urging to tell her, the door of her room was suddenly knocked by someone.

Once he knew that Diamond was coming, Bian immediately told him to come in. But the arrival of Diamond actually makes Mama Liana stunned. He was enamored with the elegance and beauty of Diamonds. Especially when he knows that Diamond is the same age as his son, plus he is the investor that Bian talks about, all make Diamonds look perfect in the eyes of Mama Liana.

“Good day, auntie!” greet Diamond.

“Oh, noon too! What's your name?” ask Mama Liana.

“I Diamond, Aunt.”

And their long chatter made Bian's feelings even more unpleasant. He could sense that the position of Diandra had been replaced by Diamond.
