"Such a big one, Cat."
Inda was astonished to see his astonished boss looking at that huge place. "Boss, really don't know what place this is?"
Karen shakes.
"This is a halfway house for unplanned pregnant women, for example pregnant in pre-marital relationships, rape, etc., to save the lives of children in the womb."
This boss again ngetes me what is it? (Industry).
"Keep, why does Lana live here? Is her pregnancy not planned?"
"First child is unplanned. But that's not why he lives here. This boss again ngetes me don't really know anyway?"
"Huh, Cat Woman! If I know, don't be tired of it you're time!"
"Gosh, even though the Boss' husband officially joined this place a few months ago."
Huh uh?! Answer what this is. (Karen).
"Oh, um, Daniel didn't say much. You know for yourself, right?"
Okay, it makes sense. (Industry).
There were 2 buildings in front of them. The one on the left is huge. Another one on the right extends a row of large pavilion-like rooms.
I knocked on one of those rooms.
Not long after, Lana opened it.
"Hi, sssttt Althan again. Oh there's Karen, too, just talking outside."
Karen smiled and nodded.
They sat in a chair outside Lana's room.
"How are you, Na? Still sick of vomiting?"
"Still, Nda. Still too bad. People say morning sickness. But Malem is also vomiting."
"But not bad, right?"
"Now, it's not as bad as when Althan was pregnant."
Soon, Nathan and Dion return home from work on foot.
"Dion's doctor also lives here?" ask Karen.
"Well, yes" replied Lana.
Lana and Inda look astonished Karen do not know at all about the halfway house.
"Well, there's this special guest, Mrs Daniel," Nathan said.
"Hi, the girls at the get-together huh. Where am I?" ask Dion.
"Mbak Asa sleeps, pregnant women have to sleep a lot" replied Lana.
Dion and Nathan went into their rooms to change clothes.
Dion came out first. He then watched Karen from head to toe.
That day, Karen was wearing a black suit.
Black pants plus red hair, who's the same? (Dions).
Nathan also came out of his room.
"Bro, who's Karen like?" whispered Dion.
"Worthy mother? His name is also heredity."
"No, look at the look. I guess who that is."
"Ehm, redhead, black shirt. Oh, like Black Widow, huh?"
"Well, right."
"Matahana ...." Dion's and Nathan's laughter exploded unbearably.
Karen, Inda and Lana just stared at the two of them for a moment. It was common for the two men to act like children.
"Ssttt, Althan is sleeping, his laugh is braked donk Mr-Bapak!" sergeant Lana, slow down.
The two of them moved away from there and sat chatting together in a small voice.
"Emang whose name is soul mate complement each other huh. Only Ironman, only Black Widow." Dion was amazed to see Karen.
"Then, Daniel's wife would be difficult to get a partner. He knew himself he was like that. Uh beyond expectations, she's more shrewd gaet chick. No wind no rain, instantly wedded. I don't think I went through a bad phase like that."
"Maybe he's upset, too, but it doesn't leak like you."
"It's like I'm leaking, you too. I never used to hang out in my apartment." Nathan mimicked and mocked Dion. "Lu say kayak gini 'Than, please dong, I want to be cheered on my bini, I gembel in your place ya' hahah."
Dion covered his face in shame.
He stood up and approached Karen. "Ren, the key to Daniel's room, who knows you'd like to see his room here first. Cleaned every day really," said Dion, giving a key.
"Oh, Daniel used to live here?" ask Karen.
"Well, you don't know?" Dion's surprised.
Well, a lot of people wonder so. I must endure the shocked and curious expression. Smile just do not have to talk let it not look if you do not know. (Karen).
Karen smile.
"Don't tell me you didn't know that I, Nathan and Daniel were home. Daniel made the most money" Dion said.
What's?! Hold Ren, don't talk. Enough smiling. (Karen).
"Daily Daniel lived here. But some time before the wedding, he never again lurked here. He never said why, uh it turned out to be your wedding. The mystery is Pretty Boy" Dion said.
Karen managed to hold back her surprised expression by smiling. Then he received the key and went into Daniel's room at the halfway house.
All furniture is very clean. It is true what Dion said. Although not in use, the room is cleaned every day.
"Boss." Inda entered the room. "I called Soni, go home, Boss!"
Karen nodded.
"Would you go home? Be careful of you guys" Nathan said.
"Eh Ren, if one day you're with Daniel want to stay here, just come. Exciting, rame. Love is also a motivation for young mothers who are pregnant in the room," said Dion while pointing to a large building containing prospective mothers with unplanned pregnancies. "You can motivate the business so they have new skills."
Karen nodded and then said goodbye.
After driving Inda, Karen smiled to herself in the car.
The phrase 'do not judge a book by its cover' is really yes. You are cold as ice cubes it turns out so. (Karen).

In the book room, Kendrik and Daniel had a long discussion about Kendrik's thesis.
"Have his methodology books, brother? Less than 1 quote."
"Qualitative research, right? It's on the shelf that's decking the table."
Kendrik took it from there and searched around for the theory he used. "I can't make a questionnaire, so just look for research that can use a qualitative approach anyway, Kak, hehe."
"Now it ...."
In the midst of those who were busy talking about the thesis, Karen entered the room. Daniel stopped talking.
"Hi, Niel. What do you want to cook? What are mushrooms?"
Silent.
"If you don't answer, I'm a lot of pare masakin you know."
"Jamur, please" replied Daniel.
Karen is gone.
"Sister Niel, why, brother?" Kendrik panicked to see his sister-in-law asphyxiated.
"It's okay, it's normal. Just a little shit."
"Have you been checked yet?"
Daniel nodded.
"the results?"
"Everything's good. I'm thinking about possible allergies."
"Oh, so in conclusion Brother Daniel is okay, right?"
"Hopefully."
Daniel noted the times he was struck by shortness of breath and looked for what allergens made him this way.
They had dinner, then Kendrik came home from there.
Daniel and Karen are still in the dining room. Daniel stood up to take something on the shelf and handed it to Karen. Oatmeal.
Karen accepts while still focusing on looking at Daniel's face. "Ma-thank you, Niel."
He's afraid I'm having a real heartache? Well, just suppose he's worried and concerned about me. (Karen).
Daniel sat down and looked at his phone.
Karen remained focused on looking at her husband's face while recalling Dion's words this afternoon. She did not expect the man who married her to be that generous.
Why the longer you are more tempting gini anyway. (Karen).
Karen sat up while continuing to look at Daniel's lips that were met with natural red.
How would it feel if I kissed these lips? (Karen).
"Aarrrggghh." Karen screamed and slapped her own cheek.
Daniel was shocked by his wife's behavior.
He slapped his own cheek again? Not because of mosquitoes, there are no mosquitoes. This room I sprayed the mosquito repellent earlier. Has anyone escaped the drug? (Daniel).
Karen rushed to run and entered the room. He drowned his face under the pillow.
Daniel immediately followed his wife into the room. He took out a pillow that covered Karen's face and placed the back of his hand on Karen's forehead.
Is he sick? Did it have the same thing this afternoon when he checked into the hospital? (Daniel).
