After his conversation with Aluna the other day. Erik finally wanted to follow his wife's desire to live in the residence Cokrodinata and continue the family business. All of that was done by Erik because he felt touched by the struggle that Aluna did, that's why he also wanted to fight to defend his wife without hurting Lilian's mother.
And here they are now, in the central room of the Cokrodinata family where everyone has gathered. There are Aji, Iriana, and their two children. There was also Lilian, her birth mother. But there is one person who is not part of their family who welcomed his arrival with Aluna, namely Arumi.
I don't know who invited the woman to the residence Cokrodinata, but clearly Arumi's existence has made Aluna feel upset. Seen from the look of his wife's face that was bent since earlier.
"You're finally back, son," Aji said with a happy smile.
Because finally the successor of the Cokrodinata family returned home, and all that thanks to Aluna who wanted to follow the conditions he asked.
"Where's our room?" asked Erik to the point, regardless of Aji's welcome, which felt just pleasantries in his ears.
"Darling, don't be. Not polite!" whispered Aluna with anxiety when she saw her husband's cold attitude towards Aji.
"I think it's polite, already" Erik replied in a loud voice, making Aluna feel even more anxious.
How not to be anxious, when he whispered so that Aji's family did not hear his words. Erik spoke so loudly that he was heard by everyone. Even now Aluna can see the look on Aji's face that ignited emotions over Erik's attitude.
"Ck, treat your Daddy like this."
Aluna walked over to her father-in-law, then spread out her arms about to hug. But before his hand was able to hug Aji. Erik had already drawn a hand, and Iriana was the one who pulled Aji away from him.
"What do you want?" erik and Iriana asked along with a jealous tone towards Aluna.
Aluna laughed when she saw how compact the mother and stepson were. Not only did he laugh, but also Lilian and Erik's two half-sisters.
"I just want to greet Damer by hugging him, can't I?"
"Can't!" erik and Iriana replied at the same time.
Aji also retreated backwards with both eyes glaring, because he did not want to be embraced by his daughter-in-law.
Aluna encourages Erik and forces her husband to hug Aji. Although both look stiff, but Aluna can see the smile on Aji's face even though only a moment when Erik hugged her earlier.
"It's my turn now."
Aluna looked at Iriana's mother who was about to move away, but she quickly pulled back and hugged her stepmother. The hug then passed to Lilian's mother and Erik's two half-brothers. As for Arumi, Aluna just say hello.
"Erik, say hello to Arumi. He came here specifically to welcome you," said Iriana by encouraging the prospective daughter-in-law.
Yes, Iriana is determined to keep Arumi closer to Erik even though Aji has forbidden.
"Sister Erik, how are you?"
"Very good." It was not Erik who answered but Aluna.
The woman was already standing right in front of Arumi with an intimidating look. Meanwhile, Arumi, who did not want to lose, returned Aluna's gaze sharply.
"Eh, you're just bothering. Now come with me!" Iriana pulls Aluna's hand so as not to disturb Erik and Arumi.
But Lilian quickly also Erik obstructed, so that Iriana would not want to let go of Aluna's hand.
"I want to take my son and daughter-in-law to her room" Lilian said, braving herself.
He did not care if later Iriana was angry, because the most important thing now was to take her daughter-in-law and son away so that there was no commotion.
"Yes, take them to his room!" sahut Aji's.
"Sir..." Iriana wanted to protest, but instantly fell silent upon seeing her husband's sharp gaze.
He eventually relented by allowing Aluna and Erik to leave with Lilian. After all, there is still tomorrow to work on Erik's wife, so that his daughter-in-law does not feel at home living with them.
