" Welcome to our house, Ma." said Surya, inviting Rani's mother into his house. He's still carrying Kalia with him.
Mama Rani immediately felt at home with the atmosphere of Surya's house. In accordance with his passion for farming hobbies.
" Wow..Mama doesn't think this much is your plant. It turns out a lot" said Mama.
" Will I have a rest in my room?" ask Surya again.
" Yes.belly I was a bit sickened because of the trip earlier kang." Surya then took Kalia to his room followed by Rani's mother.
" You rest first, straighten your legs, don't curl up." Rani's mother told Kalia.
Kalia breathed a sigh of relief when she had laid her body on the bed. Surya's house feels more comfortable now, he really has fused with this house.
After making sure Kalia rested comfortably, Surya and Ibu Rani came out of the room and chatted casually on the terrace of the house while looking at the collection of ornamental plants owned by Surya.
" Surya has seriously applied to resign from the office?" mama Rani asked Surya who replied with a smile.
" Yes, Ma. Surya wants to focus on Surya's business. After all, if Surya still works there, Lia will be transferred to another branch office. And as far as Surya knows, his branch office is out of town all. Can't bear if Lia has to work far." explained Surya, making Rani's mother moved.
" Thank you Surya, because I love Lia so much. Mama is convinced that Surya can be a good priest for Lia. Mama calm down now." Rani's mother stroked Surya's shoulder, feeling lucky to have a good daughter-in-law.
" Mama is still curious, actually what is Surya's business?" mother asked Rani again, she put her face to look at Surya carefully.
" Surya has a business in agribusiness, Mah. And now is pioneering dairy and beef cattle farming business. Here the land is very supportive." explained Surya.
Rani's mother was so shocked to hear that her son-in-law was an entrepreneur in agribusiness. A field he loved very much. Feeling grateful also that his son-in-law was a hard worker. That means Surya must be trying his hardest to make his son happy.
" Waa.mama was amazed by Surya. Since when did Surya start having all that effort?" ask Rani again.
Finally Surya recounted all his struggles when starting a business that he was in from zero to forward like now. Be that afternoon they spend by sharing stories with each other. Rani's mother also tells about her life, her hard work raising Kalia alone.
Kalia's father died in a work accident. From the company where the deceased worked, Rani's mother earned some alimony money. The money he used to open a catering business from home. To raise Kalia and send her to school. That is why Kalia grew up to be a strong and independent woman, because she saw the figure of her own mother who was so persistent in raising her without anyone's help.
Rani's mother had just stopped catering when Kalia was working and her physique began to weaken. From then on, it was Kalia who became the backbone of their family. That's why Kalia is very insistent on wanting to keep working, she does not want to rely too much on her husband. Wanted to have his own income for fear of the things that befell his mother, happening to him.
Surya increasingly understands the reason Kalia still wants to work. Basically, he doesn't have a problem with that. The reason for asking Kalia to resign at that time was simply to protect Kalia from the pressure of the problems they were facing. If the situation is conducive as it is now, it does not matter if Kalia still wants to work. She is ridho and gives permission to Kalia, as long as she can keep her marwah as a wife.
" Mommy don't think about getting married anymore?" Surya asked.
" Why do you want to be the same mom. I've been nini-nini (grandmothers) like this. Mama wants to enjoy her old age by holding a grandchild. Your children will later. So have a lot of tea children, so don't be lonely. Mama deserted have no brothers, Surya same Lia too right? Soak make a lot, three, four, five.seneng mama if many grandchildren." replied Ms. Rani with a laugh.
Surya laughed when he heard it. She wanted to, but the pregnant one was Kalia.
" If Surya is what Lia is, Mah. It was Lia who was pregnant, not Surya. If Lia wants a lot of children, come on Surya mah, ready to gas..!!" surya replied, Rani's mother laughed more and more at Surya's answer.
While chatting with Rani's mother, suddenly a car entered her yard. It turned out that Surya's family came to see him after learning that his son-in-law had returned home from the hospital.
" Assalamualaikum.." greetings Mr. Asep who was immediately warmly welcomed by Surya and Bu Rani.
" Waalaikumsalam.wah you came here, why did you not know Surya?" surya asked while kissing the back of his father's hand.
" Yes.suddenly this tea, when Surya gave news, mamah same father immediately decided to come here only. Coincidentally there is uwak Damar at home, again talking about the cattle you want to make. So all you guys bring it here." replied Mr. Asep, who shortly after Bu Ati and uwak Damar out of the car.
Surya greeted mother and her husband alternately. Bu Rani also approached them to welcome the arrival of the iron.
" Wow. Rani's mother is here too? Oh yes, this is my cousin's sister." explained Mr. Asep.
" Assalamualaikum, I'm Surya. My name is Damar. Just call me, Kang Damar." Wak Damar introduced himself to jokes. Bu Rani immediately welcomed his hand. Uwak Surya this one is a little eccentric, the way of dress is still trendy and climical. It is not at all visible that his age is already 6 heads.
" Waalaikumsalam, I am Kalia's mother." replied Ms. Rani with a polite smile.
After everyone entered and sat back in the living room, Surya went into the room to see Kalia. Kalia was still asleep. Surya kissed his wife's forehead slowly, intending not to bother her. But it turns out that Kalia blinked her eyes and woke up because of Surya's kiss.
" Kium-kium aja akang nih.i again sleep until waking up like this." said Kalia while pressing both cheeks Surya until his lips conical. Then kissed Surya's lips quickly and released his hand from Surya's cheek again.
" ah..It's just very sensitive. Though he kissed very slowly." replied Surya with a smile.
" Lia's not dizzy?" ask Surya again. Kalia shook her head slowly.
" There's a family outside. Look at Lia. Want to meet?" Kalia smiled then nodded.
" Keep me sitting still a little bit in pain." asked Kalia as she raised both her arms spoiled. Surya immediately grabbed Kalia's body and swept her out of the room.
Outside everything was waiting for Kalia. Bu Ati immediately helps Surya to get Kalia and helps Kalia sit on the sofa.
" Oh, is this what Lia's called? canan si Surya neangan serve tea. Meuni geulis kieu (Could also be the wife of Surya nyari. Beautiful like this)." praise Uwak Damar while smiling cheerfully. Kalia blushed in embarrassment to hear Damar's uwak praise towards her. Surya immediately introduced his money to Kalia.
" Lia, this is my cousin's sister. His name is uwak Damar. Wak Damar is also one of the investors in the akang business" said Surya who was immediately cut by Uwak Damar.
" Eiitss.not uwak mah investors. Just helping the child to grow. Let's succeed..!" uwak Damar hatch. A witty smile never leaves his lips. Uwak Damar is indeed very jovial and energetic. Kalia smiled at Damar's words.
" I'm Kalia, wak. His wife is Kang Surya." said Lia then kissed the hand uwak Damar.
" So how's Lia doing now?" asked Bu Ati while stroking Kalia's hair gently.
" It's better, Mah. It didn't hurt much like yesterday." replied Lia.
" Therefore must be maintained the cleanliness of the wound yes, eat a lot of protein so that it dries quickly. Keep on not being sad. Must be spirit, must be sincere." said Bu Ati sage. Kalia simply nodded and revealed her sweet smile.
" Yes atuh.must be spirit. Still young.still plenty of time. Directly tap the gas just make it again.do not irritate. Make a lot of kayak uwak. Uwak also has five children. It's all big now mah but still cool gini huh?" uwak Damar said confidently. The others immediately laughed at the words of Uwak Damar. While Kalia and Surya just smiled faintly to hear the words of his brother who is blunt and unfiltered in this filter.
" How many brothers are Lia?" ask uwak Damar again.
" An only child, wak." replied Ms. Rani.
" Irit naha meuni? just like the Asep nih, have only one tea child" said uwak again.
" Yes.my husband died when Kalia was a child" replied Ms. Rani. Uwak Damar immediately nodded.
" A single parent or something?" tanya Uwak Damar later.
" Yes wak, I am a single parent" replied Ms. Rani again.
" Do not call uwak atuh, call aja kang Damar." said uwak Damar with a meaningful smile.
