Aline had just arrived at her house with Arka, the woman could not wait to immediately pick up her smartphone that was in the bag. The woman's clasped fingers danced over the screen, looking for contacts bearing Arum's name and immediately pressed the green icon on her phone screen to call her best friend, Aline had to wait several times for Arum to pick up the phone call.
"Hallo Aline" said Arum from across the phone.
"Hallo Arum, you and Johan have no show tomorrow night?" ask Aline to the point.
"No, tomorrow night I'm with Mas Johan there's no show. What's the matter?" Arum turned the question to his best friend.
"I'm the same Arka Ungin invited you two to dinner at my house tomorrow at seven o'clock, and I want to give you both some happy news." aline's speech made Arum pause for a moment because he was curious about what happy news would be given by his best friend.
"What's the good news, Aline? Do not like to make you curious, or maybe you want to inaugurate the marriage of the two of you?" guess Arum who missed.
"No, it's not that problem. Anyway, tomorrow you come to my house at seven o'clock, bye."
Aline turned off the phone call unilaterally, making Arka who had been standing in front of the woman could only smile to see the wife again showed a happy twinkle on her face. Because Aline has almost never been able to laugh after that since losing her child first.
"Darling, you seem to be so happy?" asked Arka who nodded on the sofa beside the wife.
Aline smiled then hugged the husband's burly body, "I'm so happy, Mas. Finally God entrusted me to have a little angel in my stomach." The woman stroked her flat stomach.
Arka unraveled the embrace, looking fixedly at the face of ayu the woman who had become her life companion and would soon give her a child. Arka was silent for a moment, then kissed the wife's forehead with love.
"I'm so happy, I can finally see you laughing like this" he said later.
"I'm sorry, Mom. All this time I've been acting like you, I can't be a wife who pleases her husband" Aline replied with a guilty face.
Arka immediately put her index finger in front of the wife's lips, as a code so that the woman no longer bring up the story of their past.
"Our past is bad, our memories are almost all bad. Hopefully after this we can carve happiness for good. Me, you and also our son," Arka hoped with a very serious look.
The man's heart really warmed up. Arka also thought of immediately formalizing their marriage legally.
"Aline, you're pregnant now. So when are you ready to formalize our marriage?" asked Arka to the wife, Aline fell silent. The woman seemed to be thinking seriously.
"How about after I give birth, Mom? Because at the time of pregnancy like this, I certainly will not be able to take care of all the preparations for our remarriage," said Aline who did have a point as well. Moreover, her gestational age is still very young, dangerous if she gets exhausted.
Elsewhere, Arum approached Johan, who was busy with his laptop in the room. Since finding out that she is pregnant, Johan has decided to work from home and will only come to the office if there are important meetings that his assistant cannot represent. As for Caffe's affairs, occasionally the two would come together to check the financial statements. It was deliberately done Johan because he wanted to be a husband who was on standby, who was always there when Arum wanted something. Including cravings for strange things like yesterday.
"Mas," called Arum softly, making the husband shift his focus to the wife.
"What's wrong? How come your face is confused?" asked Johan while linking his eyebrows together.
"This is it, Mas. I just got a phone call from Aline," Arum deliberately paused his sentence for a moment.
"What happens if there's a call from Aline?" asked Johan who was also curious after staring at the expression of the wife's face.
"She invited us to dinner at her house tomorrow at seven o'clock, she said, telling us the happy news" Arum told her husband.
Johan's focus shifted again to the laptop screen in front of him, looking for a file then looked at the wife with both eyes moving right to left. As if thinking of the right words to refuse the request of the wife.
"Darling, I don't think I can go to dinner at Aline's tomorrow. I have an important meeting at eight at night" Johan said softly because he did not want to ignite the emotions of his wife.
"Well, should I go there myself?" Arum had already started to pursed his lips. Of course Johan knew that the wife had started sulking. The man immediately hugged the wife's body so that his anger did not increase.
"Calm down, tomorrow I'll take you there and I'll go to the meeting. I'll pick him up again after my business is done, how?"
Arum seemed to think for a moment.
"Don't I just go, Mom?" chirps Arum featuring his flagship puppy eyes.
"Yes, don't dong, he said Aline would like to give you happy news. If you do not come later it is thought that you will not feel his happiness again."
Arum thought again, digesting Johan's words well then weighing his decision.
"Yes, but yes. Tomorrow you will pick me up after the meeting. Who are you meeting with anyway? How important it seems to be so that it cannot be represented," asked Arum with a probing gaze, for some reason suddenly the soul of kepo and his jealousy thrashed.
Johan looked a little flustered after hearing the question. Don't know how to answer for fear that Arum will be angry if he finds out who will meet with him tomorrow night. The man scratched his non-itchy head while smiling awkwardly.
"Mas, why not answer it? Who are you meeting with?" The woman repeated her question.
"Emb, you promise. Not going to be angry" Johan asked his wife.
Arum even more suspicious to hear Johan's request, especially her husband's face looks so nervous as if trying to hide something.
"Udah, Mas. Cepetan said, who are you meeting tomorrow night? Why aren't you a deputy?"
