Not an Ordinary Couple
Eps 25 (Terms that trap)

Denis and Vivita giggled amusedly, feeling funny at their own whims. This old couple is indeed a strange tone.

Meanwhile Arta and Riska were astonished to see the behavior of two very strange parents in front of them.

Arta may have gotten used to such scenes, seeing her parents' sometimes strange behavior had become everyday food for her. But unlike Riska, the girl was astonished to see the behavior of her two in-laws. Denis and Vivita were whispering a moment later they were laughing indistinctly, truly magical in-laws, Riska thought. But Riska did not want to bother, she chose to ignore that, just assume her two in-laws were happy, she thought.

Arta was already in Denis's study, and after dinner, Papi told him to meet her in his study.

"Why did Papi send me here? Is there anything important that Papi wants to talk to me about?" Ask Arta. Because usually if Denis told him to go into the workspace there must be something important that Denis would tell him.

The teenager sat on the sofa there facing Denis who had been waiting for his arrival since.

"Are you really sure you want to study abroad Arta?" Denis asked, once again he wanted to make sure his youngest son's decision was round.

Arta nodded her head in response. The teenager has unanimously steadied his heart and mind with his decision.

Denis just took a deep breath. This time there was no other way, he would use his wife's advice to keep Arta in the homeland.

"Well, if your decision is complete, Papi will allow you to study abroad" Denis said.

Hearing Denis' words immediately made Arta happy, eventually the Papi allowed him to continue his studies in London. But it turns out that Arta's pleasure did not last long when he heard Denis's next words.

"But on one condition" continued Denis.

Hearing there is a condition to make Arta sighed slowly. She thought her Papa really agreed with her decision.

Although there are conditions that must be met, but it is okay for Arta. If he can qualify, maybe Denis will allow him to go to school abroad. For the sake of his ideals Arta will meet any conditions that the Papi will submit to him.

"What are the conditions?" Tanya Arta was curious.

"The condition is according to your promise yesterday at the hospital. Papi wants you to immediately give a grandson to Papi. If you can get Riska pregnant then Papi will be happy to let you go to college in London" Denis said with a sly smile, the man knew Arta would not be able to qualify.

Even though Arta is independent, she does not live with him anymore, but Denis still tells people to keep an eye on her children. And from there Denis knew that Arta and Riska did not sleep in the room.

At first Denis was very surprised to find out the reports of the men about the child and his son-in-law who slept in different rooms, but Denis tried to understand and let it go, just let it go, maybe Arta and Riska need time to accept each other because Denis is aware of their forced marriage and Denis understands that.

Denis only hopes that one day as time goes by the child and his son-in-law can love each other and can live a married life like other couples in general.

But Denis won't stand idly by when he learns of his son's domestic problems and his son-in-law, he will try to make Arta and Riska fall in love with each other, for that reason Denis gave such conditions to Arta.

Hearing the conditions presented by her Papi made Arta round her eyes. His body immediately degenerated, it was possible that Denis gave such a condition to him. If the condition is then it can be ascertained if Arta will not be able to fulfill it.

"Why should that be Pih? There are no other conditions" said Arta annoyed. Where could he possibly give Denis a grandchild while he and Riska just slept apart.

"Nothing, Papi just wants a grandson. If you can't qualify from Papi, then don't expect Papi to allow you to study abroad" Denis said indifferently and got up from his seat.

"Unless you can get Riska pregnant" Denis continued and walked out of the room with a triumphant smile on her face, leaving Arta alone in the room.

"Aahhh..sialll.." cried Arta frustratedly ruffled her hair.

***

Riska walked towards Arta's room on the second floor. After dinner, he decided to take a break.

"Riska" call Vivita.

Hearing her name on the call, Riska immediately stopped her steps and turned her body, seeing Vivita walking towards her.

"Yes, what's up Mi" Riska replied.

"Can you come with Mommy for a minute?" Vivita.

"Where's Mi?" Ask Riska.

"You've come" said Vivita, pulling Riska's hand to follow her.

Riska followed Vivita. I don't know where Vivita will take her the girl just shut up and follow.

Both of them are now in the kitchen. Vivita took Riska into the kitchen, I don't know what they're going to do there Riska doesn't know?

"Sir Ko, is everything I asked for ready?" Vivita asked Mr. Ko who was in the kitchen.

"It's the Madam" replied Mr. Ko.

"Good then, thank you Mr. Ko" Vivita said.

"Yes, he is equally" said Mr. Ko and resigned.

"Riska now you're sitting in that chair huh, watch what Mami does from there. Okay" said Vivita pointing to the chair in the corner of the kitchen facing directly towards the kitchen where Vivita would cook.

Dutifully Riska obeyed him and sat quietly in that chair, she did not know what Vivita would do.

Riska watched everything her mother-in-law did. Vivita looks very busy concocting and putting all the ingredients in the pot. I don't know what that woman put in? Riska doesn't know either.

"What would you cook? Let Riska help Mih" said Riska volunteered and walked over to Vivita.

It didn't taste good when her in-laws were busy cooking while Riska just kept quiet watching Vivita without doing anything. At least as a good daughter-in-law she can help Vivita.

"Dear, don't help Mommy. You just need to sit there and watch what Mami does so that later you can practice it yourself in the apartment" said Vivita and again lead Riska to sit in the chair earlier.

With resignation Riska also obeyed Vivita and returned to sit in the chair that had been provided by Mr. Ko earlier.

"Consider and remember everything Mama did. Okay" said Vivita and Riska only replied by nodding her head.

The girl silently looked, began to pay attention and remember everything Vivita did.
