Harumi bowed and touched the cheek of the nephew "Hi Alana...Hi Julie" Harumi said to Ameera's two daughters
Julie Hardy, 5-year-old daughter of Ameera and Robert. Sweet little girl and very fond of pink color is always cheerful like a girl his age.
This little girl did not really know Harumi, it was natural because she first met him when she was very young, while attending Harumi and Anton's Wedding.
"Why are you getting skinny ?" tanya Ameera glanced behind Harumi, looking at her younger brother who was focusing on removing the suitcase from the car
Anton grinned "If I were fat, you'd be surprised"
Ameera's eyes narrowed as she opened her lips "Have it, I can't imagine you with a bulging stomach" and the woman laughed loosely
Harumi noticed the interaction of the two brothers, and it made her a little entertained considering what she had faced before.
They go inside, followed by Anton while pulling two suitcases belonging to him and Harumi.
***
Three days passed
Ameera noticed Harumi who was helping her in the kitchen to prepare breakfast, then turned her attention to Anton who was sitting in the Living Room while reading the newspaper.
There was something in him that felt stuck, as Ameera observed the two. He felt they were acting stiff and as if hiding something.
The woman placed the knife on the table, paused for a moment and approached Harumi who was smearing strawberry jam on the bread.
Controlling the volume of his voice was almost like whispering "What's wrong with you two ?"
Harumi turned around and it surprised her "W-what you mean ?" answer with a stammering voice
It had been three days since they had arrived at Ameera's residence. Harumi did not realize, that during that time Ameera observed the behavior of the couple.
And it made Ameera feel that there was something fishy about it for these three days. Harumi doesn't talk much, more moody, and sometimes Harumi can't control herself. His gaze was always blank even when he was accompanying Julie playing in the courtyard.
Even Harumi often forgets things that she shouldn't be careless about like cooking water that she forgot to turn off. And the woman often daydreams.
Ameera feels that there is something unnatural in Harumi, as well as Anton who only focuses on himself. The man went out more often and almost spent some of his time outside without taking Harumi with him.
"You must understand what I'm asking you, I don't want to interfere in your domestic affairs. But, isn't it natural that I feel worried ?"
A stabbing pain in Harumi's chest "We're fine" The woman lied. They are not in a good state, their body language cannot cover it.
Ameera exhaled quickly, she was slightly disappointed by Harumi's reply. But he believes the more Ameera asks the question, the answer will remain the same. Harumi is a closed type especially about the condition of her household, because the woman will hide all her problems with meetings for the good of others.
The woman tried to reply with a smile, even though it was a stiff smile at least for Ameera seeing Anton and Harumi still stay together it was more than enough "I'm just worried, I'm just worried, but if the truth is you're okay. Its Ok, Its Good."
Harumi's lips curved with all the doubts "Yuk, we have breakfast. Looks like it's ready" Harumi put the last Bread onto the plate.
Then, Ameera turned the other way back to her position at the beginning of preparing another breakfast menu.
After all the breakfast menu was ready, they gathered together at the dinner table.
"Mommy, when did the Granny come ?" alana looked at Ameera
"tomorrow the day after granny departs from London, dear."
Ameera glanced at Anton "You're going to pick him up at the airport right ?"
"Actually you don't have to bring a rental car here, just use my car" Robert said as he cut ham on his plate
Anton was silent, not responding to anything.
Anton's relationship with his brother-in-law is not good enough. According to Anton's view, Ameera's husband was often arrogant and not infrequently felt superior to Anton. Especially about Career and Work. And it made Anton uncomfortable and very sick.
Moreover, hearing all the success stories of his career, which Anton considered just a fortune. Robert has many connections from his parents.
After finishing breakfast, Anton shifts his chair and leaves the dining table for the bedroom.
There was an awkward atmosphere at the time that made Ameera and Harumi feel uncomfortable, due to Robert's words and Anton's cold response.
Harumi soon follows Anton. Inside the room he saw Anton playing his phone on the bed.
"You shouldn't behave like that, every time at the dinner table you're always cold" Harumi said as she slowly approached her husband and sat down next to him
Anton was still cold and just chose silence. At first he was still staring at the screen of his phone and did not reply.
"Enough, Rumi. I don't want to discuss it." replied Anton firmly at a glance he looked at Harumi with a slight annoyance.
Harumi was only worried that "We respect Ameera at least, however Robert is her husband. You haven't even been here since you've never rebuked her."
Anton again hardened "I told you. Enough ! don't talk about this anymore. I don't want to argue with you"
The woman looked down "But...Anton"
Anton raised his head, then turned to look at Harumi for quite a while "He always underestimated me ! You should know, baji**** that he always felt the greatest and considered me the lowest"
The look on his face turned tense, there was a blaze of anger emanating in Anton's eyes at that moment.
"At least you should be able to be more restrained, and be more calm especially in front of her children" Harumi said with restraint not to get carried away by her husband's emotions
Because they feel unacceptable to the words of Harumi, who seems to think Anton's attitude is wrong and more defending Robert than himself. His frustration was mounting, the man immediately stood up and threw his phone on the bed right in front of Harumi.
He starts to act tough, and suddenly blows away Harumi.
Harumi was completely shocked by Anton's change in attitude that was completely illegible.
The man angrily pointed towards Harumi and almost threw a threatening tone "Don't say nonsense, if you don't know anything. Just shut up, and stop commenting" Anton's gaze darkened
"I don't like it when someone underestimates me. I can't take it. Supposedly, you as my wife defend me rather than defend her" Anton continued by raising his tone
Harumi's eyes widened, the woman was like she was shot in the heart. The loud pounding was so felt from his stomach to his chest. Anton's sharp gaze to his words like this. As if opening that flash of Memory back in Harumi's mind, her hand shook. This is indeed her. Anton never changed.
His attitude like this was not much different from his old self.
