Every time she gets home from work, after cooking and cleaning the room, Karen spends her time looking around for anything in the house that could give her clues about Daniel's past.
But, nil. In the house it was clean, there was nothing that could be used as a clue. Only, there is 1 room that is always locked tightly.
Karen had never hinted because she was going to ignore Daniel during the marriage. The practice absolutely cannot.
Haris' words actually sparked the turmoil of Karen's curiosity about Daniel.
Now, he was eager to enter the always locked room.
"Kudanil, what room is this? Can I come in?"
Daniel shakes.
"Why? What are you hiding here?"
Daniel shakes again.
"What the hell are you rolling around?" karen protests while shuffling Daniel's hair.
Yes indeed I do not hide anything, not the important stuff also in here. What is the difference between the bells and the answer "no", it means the same. And equally human language as well, verbal and non verbal language. I prefer non-verbal. (Daniel).
Daniel took a breath. "Mommy's agent, you can't come in."
That's how every forced Karen wanted to get into that room, Daniel's answer was always the same. It was Mami Seli who forbade Karen from entering the room.
The house was Daniel's private home. He has full power to give access to anyone who wants to enter his house.
However, she complies with Mami Seli's request. At that time Mami Seli begged Daniel so much that he would not let Karen into the mysterious room.
***
1 month later...
With the good illustration produced by Haris, the turnover of Karen's company rose. Within a month, Karen was busy taking care of various jobs. New clients are emerging. Large companies are abuzz using the services of content from Karen-owned agencies.
He almost forgot his curiosity about Daniel's history because of the busy work. He often returns home in a daze and falls asleep after dinner.
Mami Seli and Mama Puri both charge the newlyweds to stay overnight.
Before marriage, both Daniel and Karen regularly stay at their parents' homes at least once a week. Now that they are married, they should be able to split the time in order to visit both parents.
This Saturday, Daniel and Karen will be staying at Daniel's parents' house. Karen's actually exhausted. But he also wants to keep his promise.
On the way, Karen massaged her own nape and head.
"illness?" ask Daniel.
"No, just tired."
"You're going home?"
"Don't! Hygiene Mami, already from yesterday's phone-phone keep want you to go there."
Daniel did it.
~
Arriving at the destination, Mami Seli, Stella and Papi Danu welcomed the arrival of the newly married couple a month ago.
She hugged Karen. "Ren, is your body an angel?"
"Yes, Mi, it's like a cold."
"If so, take a break!"
Karen lay down on Daniel's bed. Her body is very uncomfortable. Not only that, the headache also hit his head. His stomach seemed to be stirred and ready to remove its contents.
Karen held her mouth then slightly ran towards the bathroom. He spewed out all the stomach. The occupants of Karen's stomach pouch also say goodbye from its host without residue. However, it was precisely thanks to spewing out those entrails, that his head was slightly lightened.
"Niel, what is your wife sick?" ask Mami Seli.
Daniel raised his back.
"Don't get pregnant."
Daniel only glared at Mami Seli's conjecture.
"Stel, go to the pharmacy for a testpack!" pinta Mami Seli's.
"Yes, Mi." Stella hurried off to obey her mother's orders.
"Mi, have paracetamol?" ask Daniel.
"Have it, it's in the medicine box. Jamu got wind too. What we don't have is a testpack, so Mami told Stella to buy. You guys are already one month of marriage, there is no harm in the test," said Mami with a look on her face.
Karen came back from the bathroom and lay down on the bed. Daniel brought a basin of warm water to compress Karen.
"Kok use air angel?" ask Karen.
Daniel nodded.
Hash, there is no point in the same Egyptian statue, it will not be answered either. (Karen).
Stella returns from the pharmacy and hands the testpack she bought to Mami Seli.
"Huh?" Karen glared at Daniel. "Niel, this ...."
"Udah, say it! You've been married for a month now, who knows it's postitive hehehem ...." Mami Seli is very excited. "Mami come out first, later if you have found the results, tell Mami yes!"
Mami Seli came out of that room.
"Kudanil, how is this?"
The doctor raised both shoulders.
"Test your urine!"
Jesus, would you cook for a male urine test?! (Daniel).
Daniel grabs Karen's hand and places the newly purchased urine in her.
With heavy steps, Karen went to the bathroom and did a urine test. He dripped urine on the pad available on the testpack and took it out of the bathroom.
"Now, I put it here if Mami wants to see you later." Karen put the testpack on the table. "Kudanil, have herbs to catch a cold, don't you?"
Daniel nodded.
"Please take 1 hour."
Daniel flinch, not following Karen's request. He saw his watch.
"Niel, why the hell? I need some herbs to take it lightly. The temperature's down so there's no need for a heat sink, right?"
"Wait for the test results" the doctor said as he looked at his watch.
"What! Heh, you know for yourself we've never been .... How can I get pregnant?"
He's a poor doctor but why today bego? (Karen).
Karen rolled back to Daniel sitting on the bedside.
Wait, knowledge of human reproduction is common. Everyone who goes to school gets knowledge about human reproduction in biology class 9 junior high school, right? (Karen).
Karen looked at Daniel.
"Heh Anubis Statue, who do you think I am pregnant with, huh?" karen Sentak.
Daniel did not dare to stare, he looked up at the ceiling.
"Daris? You suspect I'm the same as him ...."
Daniel looked the other way. "Who knows," he said very softly, but it still caught Karen's ear.
"You think I'm a fuckin' girl!" Karen was angry with the voice that was being put down. He was afraid that his voice would be heard by family members.
It could be that this human being is silent and see the results rather than angry so. (Daniel).
Karen stood up and took the testpack. The time has come to see the results. He showed me the urine test right in front of Daniel's face.
"Look, pelototin! The NE-GA-TIF!"
Daniel nodded, then went to get some herbs for Karen. In the kitchen, he meets Mami Seli.
"Where did it go, Niel?"
"Negative."
"Hey ...." Mami Seli looked disappointed. He also met Karen.
Good thing negative, if positive, I'm dizzy to find out who the father is. (Daniel).
Karen was still holding the urine test in her hand when Mami Seli came in.
"If it's still negative, it's okay, Ren. Patience is!" entertain Mami Seli's.
Lhah, those words are for Mami, it was Mami who snuck earlier. (Karen).
"Hehehem .. Yes, Mi. I'm the same Daniel was patient. Um .. and we're not in a hurry, Mi."
Mami Seli sat down and massaged Karen's shoulder.
"What's the method really?"
"What method is it, Mi?"
"Bikin the dough."
"Huh? Cake dough?"
"No, ikh you are. That is, make baby dough. It needs to be considered for its position."
Karen's throat was stuck. Swallowing the saliva feels like swallowing a very bitter medicine. He also broke out cold sweat.
