Mathelina
Chapter 25's

Monika stepped reluctantly while in front of the police station, even she stood long enough to gather all her courage to face something she hated so much.

However, Matthew was right, his attitude could not be like this. He had to face it, step inside and meet Dimas.

He turned his head, looking at Dimas who was dressed in blue, especially for the inmates, walking towards him and sitting in front of him. The man was stunned to see Monika who wanted to meet him. But then, he prejudiced that his arrival was only to say hurtful things.

Monika looked down, full of regret. "I'm sorry"? the next word that made Dimas gaped. What mistake did he hear? Or Monika who has spoken wrongly?

"I've slandered you, kept you away from Justin, and hated you for no reason" Monika continued. "You know, being married without love is hard on me. But for mom's sake, I'm forced to marry you."

Dimas was not surprised to hear the confession. He knew it a long time ago. Actually, it's his fault too. Why didn't he ask Monika first? Why didn't he give each other time to adjust and get to know each other? And he shouldn't be greedy to have a full Monika.

However, for what to discuss it, humans were once inattentive, never khilaf. There is no point in regretting what has passed. He smiled, then looked at the woman he loved.

"I never had a pardon for you. To me, you're never wrong" he said. "Maybe, I'm too blind."

Monika held up, dumbfoundedly staring at Dimas. "But I was wrong."

"Finding my mistake was enough. No need to talk about the past anymore."

Monika smiles. His sister was right, he was too stupid and blind that God had paired her with a very good man. Sorry, because it's hard to give her heart.

"I've revoked my report. From now on, you can meet Justin whenever you want."

Dimas smiled as a cringe. Very happy, Monika has changed. He expects nothing more, not even at his fractured marriage. Just being able to meet Justin, build a good relationship with Monika, is something to be grateful for.

"Thank you, Monika. I hope your life will be happy."

Why did you hear Dimas say that, Monika was so disappointed? Does that guy really want to let go? If so, he prayed that God would give him all the best, including "love".

"You too, Dimas. May you always be happy."

-;-;-;-

Justin waved to Elina. After more than a month of being nurtured by her, their relationship grew closer. Elin was also sad when she had to hold the child for the last time.

Matthew already said he would take Elina to his house. She carried Elina's bag into the trunk of the car. But the house referred to by Elina was not her mother's rented house, but a rented house that Matthew had rented for a year.

Elina's impression since the car stopped in front of the house was "overrated". This house is not too big, but for Elina this is very ill-fitting. She lives alone, but the house has two rooms. Appliances are readily available; sofas, tables, refrigerators, kitchen utensils, and washing machines.

The cool air from the AC sighed at Elina's skin when the door was opened by Matthew. He stared at the protests, no need to use AC, fans were enough for him.

But Matthew said this: "But I don't want to get too hot when I come here. I'm used to AC." And Elina just shook her head.

Then, Elina walked towards the spacious kitchen. Is there a washing machine near the bathroom? That's not necessary either! Elina can wash by hand. Hence, Matthew could feel Elina's rough hands. But that's not why Matthew bought that thing - oh, he didn't care about Elina's rough hands either - because he didn't want Elina to get tired.

"You're pregnant. The doctor said, You can't do hard work" he added.

Elina clucked. Washing is not a hard job. He would answer, but Matthew went outside. They arrived at the living room that was not too spacious. On the right are two rooms and a hallway to the kitchen. Elina sat on the sofa opposite Matthew, having brought two cups of tea with her.

"I'm also going to hire a maid," Matthew said, just as Elina was sitting on the sofa.

"No need. I can still finish the homework," replied Elina, who immediately added as Matthew was about to interrupt. "Although she is pregnant."

Free to explain the reason, Matthew strongly denied it. "No. I'll still send a maid"

"I said no-" Elina snickered, Matthew's face had been exactly in front of the face. Huh, he's bluffing again!

Elina shuffled back, but Matthew continued to approach her. He panicked even more, then pushed Matthew while choking, "What the hell..."

Not that Matthew fell, even Elina was the opposite. Matthew held Elina's hand that would push him, holding her back slowly until she was pushed onto the sofa. It **** Elina. The girl's heart was beating miserably.

Matthew grew bolder, his face continued to be close, until their lips were only half an inch adrift. Seeing the girl start to get anxious, inside he cheered excitedly.

"So, what's your decision?"

Look at that evil smile! Elina should not feel intimidated by her bluff. He tried to calm down, and replied, "Okay, but when my stomach was bigger."

Matthew frowning. Looks like the negotiations worked? It was time for Elina to seize the opportunity with reason. "In fact, pregnant women should keep moving, at least do work that does not lift heavy objects. Besides, people say that his mother is lazy, his son will be lazy."

Matthew began to slowly move his face away a little. "really? All right, just don't carry a heavy load."

Elina's breathing loosened because the man had moved away from her body. Matthew returned to the sofa, then sipped Elina's tea. The drink soaked his rancor that had only swallowed saliva since it could not stand Elina's lips. Honey, those lips don't get kissed.

"Don't you have a scheduled check next week?" matthew said crisply.

Elina's eyes were round. He himself did not remember when the time was, why could the man know? "Em .. Why?"

Matthew muttered to himself while recalling. "I think I'll be busy tomorrow."

Despite that, Elina heard and exclaimed, "I can ask Raima to drop off."

Matthew moved his body, staring with a protesting expression. "Is the baby's father me or Raima?"

Of course you are! What kind of question is that? "But you're busy" said Elina.

"I can ask for permission." Matthew leaned back on the sofa. "I am, the boss."

Elina threw away her face, sneering in her heart. Huh, tumbles!

At the edge of the cup, there was a look of a mischievous smile on Matthew's lips, while glancing at the helpless Elina. He did so that the woman would no longer refuse anything she wanted. A glass of tea was up, today's talk seemed to be enough. Then, Matthew got up from the chair, and glanced at his watch - it was already 9.

Elina glanced at Matthew's former cup. If so, why is the tea gone? What does this man mean? His smile was also ugly.

The man got out of the house and got into the car. Every movement of the man, Elina watched in wonder, wonder, and guess. I don't know, looks like that guy's kind of changed his nature. What's affecting him? Is the baby in Elina?

-;-;-;-

"Report!" orders a man with a bass voice, impatient.

A man in black glasses put some photos on the man's desk. Instantly his gaze turned violent. All the photos were thrown to the floor.

Jonathan was furious. Matthew's assignment to Jakarta not only wanted to put his young wife as a director at his company in England, but also to develop the performance of Matthew, who would later inherit all his property and company. But what's he doing? Even alone with a lowly woman who works as a nanny? What's their relationship? And who's that woman?

With anger remaining at the corner of his lips, he said to his eyes, "Quick, investigate again! I want to know more about them!"

-;-;-;-

Elina asks Matthew for permission to go to her parents' house, escorted by Raima. Thankfully Matthew allowed, the man must have understood how much Elina missed her mother and sister, after a month apart. So that afternoon, he was picked up by Raima, then delivered.

Elina's warm embrace came directly from her mother, when the door opened. Frasya also immediately approached and held her brother's arm, entering the living room. Elina was stunned, slightly changed, the arrangement, and the addition of some items in the corner of the living room. The mother said it was the result of Elina's weekly money.

Weekly money? Elina was stunned, turning to Raima who directly raised both of her shoulders. As Elina remembered, she had not sent anything, even her salary, which she wanted to give to her mother, was still in her hands.

"Yes, sister," said Frasya grasping Elina's hand. "Sister Master is very good huh? You must be working there."

Elina was forced to smile, then returned pensive. Who sent the money? Raima's work? Ah, he knows. Matthews!

"Son, let's eat. I've cooked the food you like" said the mother.

Elina smiled haru. Whatever your mother cooks will be her favorite food. For him, the cuisine of the mother is the most delicious compared to the cuisine of even famous chefs.

Mother gently sighed Elina to the dining table, followed by Raima and Frasya. Mother accidentally glanced at Elina's hips which looked somewhat changed. Is this just his feeling? But then, he ignored because he did not want to be prejudiced. Maybe Elina was less filled because her employer gave her good food.

Mother put down her favorite goldfish gulai after two spoons of rice were placed on a plate.

"Mommy loves Elina?" said Frasya pretending to frown. "I was never taken."

Elina, Raima, and Mother smiled. Mother told Frasya to hand over the plate, then take two spoons of rice. Seeing this, Elina's tears melted again. She was grateful, her mother and sister's lives were happy. And may it always be.

"Fish it too dong, ma'am," exclaimed Frasya, pretending to be spoiled.

Raima laughed and teased Frasya. "Tante, don't want to, his habits, mah. Give him ice cream, ask for another pizza."

Frasya poked her tongue out, while Elina and Mom laughed together. Later, lunch began with various chats, including offending Elina's work.

Her mother and sister found out that Elina was a nanny at a family home. Mom was a little horrified when she heard there was a single man living there. But he was relieved, because nothing happened to his son. Moreover, hearing that man was very kind.

"Despite that, you have to stay careful and take care of yourself huh?" mother's Advice.

Guard yourself? Elina smiled bitterly. His holiness has been taken away, even he is pregnant. Forgive your negligent son, ma'am.

When Elina was about to put a second mouthful into her mouth, suddenly the nausea jolted. Elina spontaneously shuts her mouth. Everyone looked up to hear the voice coming from him. Then Raima panicked as Elina, who then ran to the bathroom because of the nausea that was getting so.

Mother's mind conjures up presumptions. He didn't speak up right away. The thing he wanted to affirm from his assumption was that he would ask after eating.

"Sister why? It hurt?" fad Frasya, as soon as Elina is back at the dinner table.

I just glanced at her while continuing to eat.

"No. It was choking on a fish bone, "Elina lied.

Elina quickly finished her meal before the nausea returned. And when that happened, he quickly ran to the bathroom. On his way out, he sees Frasya and Raima washing the dishes.

"Sister, look for mom in the room" Frasya exclaimed.

Elina nodded, then walked towards her room. It was seen that Mom was sitting on the bed, changing the pillowcase. His distinctive smile was reflected when he heard the creak of the door open, turning to his only child.

"Mom looking for me?"

"Yes. You're here, aren't you?"

If he can, he gladly will. "Can't, Mom. The permit is only now. I'm going back to my employer's house."

Mother's movement stopped. The smile faded slowly along with disappointment. Despite his sadness, he comforted himself and tried to smile. "Yes already. Next time don't refuse."

Patience Mother. Your son will not leave again after a child he did not expect was born. Nothing will ever separate Elina and her mother. This was indeed a bit heavy to live, but for the sake of her mother's opposition, Elina smiled forcedly.

"Son, can I ask you a question?" Mother turned around slightly to face Elina. Highlight his eyes seriously, making Elina's heart beat uncomfortably.

"Ask what, Mom?"

"Are you pregnant?"[]
