NOT JUST FRIENDS
Episode 211

Happy reading.....

Ara and Reno have returned to the middle – middle of their families who are waiting for the results of the Test Pack given by Fania earlier.

“Where Brother?.” Ask Fania who was excited to stand up from her seat.

Michelle even immediately moved from her seat approaching Ara and Reno was so excited.

“Don't tell me my prediction was wrong huh?.” Tanya Fania deg – deg an, because Ara and Reno have not answered, instead looking at each other.

Ara looked at her family one by one. The woman smiled. “Easy – hopefully I can take good care of it.” Said Ara whose eyes glazed – glass as well as Reno, while stroking her stomach.

“So?!...” Pekik Fania's. “Truly means my guess?!.” Sumringa.

Reno and Ara nodded enthusiastically with a happy twinkle and a smile on the faces of the two.

“Alhamdulillah!.” They are all grateful, happy with the happiness of Reno and Ara who will be blessed with a baby.

Fania immediately splashed on Reno and Ara. Andrew smiled as he shook his head – saw his happiest wife. He stood up to congratulate Reno and Ara, and the rest of the family stood up.

“Selameet ... Brother Ara!!! Brother Reno!!!.” Fania hugged the two happily and sumringah. Sampe his own disgust that Kajol so senengnya. While looking at the two lines displayed in the test pack. ‘When is my turn?.’ His mind is hopeful.

“Thank you, Little F.” Reno said with a big smile.

“Bener Khaaann my prediction?!.”

“Yes, this is her son Papa Herman with Mama Bela.” Sahut Ara with the same smile as Reno. “Thank you, Sweety.”

The words came from all the family members. They are all happy, very. Even the maids congratulated Reno and Ara on becoming parents.

“Jago right, me?!.” Fania told Andrew.

“Iya jago indeed!.” Andrew smiled as well. “Whose wife?.”

Fania folded her lips. “Try we bet. Win me!.”

“Indeed if it was so, what bet if you win, hem?.” Andrew asked as he hugged Fania from behind.

“Nih, abisin this dodol duren!.” Said Fania while taking the dodol that was Reno

take it again but it's not over.

“Hah, congratulations .... profit is not a bet!.” Andrew stroked his chest, making the others chuckle amusedly.

It's impossible if Fania and Andrew bet and Kajol wins. Can – can the Andrew vomit ga kelar – kelalahin people who are pregnant.

“Yes we have continued this breakfast.” Jeff said after everyone had finished congratulating Reno and Ara, and was asserted by all while returning to the place of each – each.

This morning's breakfast feels so good because of the happy news from Reno and Ara. Especially for couples who in the next few months will be the parents.

“Don't forget to tell your mother Kak Ara tuh Kak. Must be happy to be a granny.” Fania reminded. Because Ara still has a biological mother who lives in Indonesia.

“Yes, Sweety must have known lah.” Sahut Ara's. “Later I asked mama here huh, Hon?.” Ask Reno. And her husband nodded in agreement.

“Maybe now Mama Anye wants to stay with us, Babe.” Reno.

“Iya later I try to persuade mama again to stay with us.” Answer Ara.

“Beruh Kak Ara, wedding time I did not take long chat – long with Aunt Anye.” Fania.

“Ya chat later followed after breakfast.” Mom Erna is speaking. “Ara, eat a lot of healthy so that's the granddaughter of your mother who is in your stomach.”

“Iya, Mom.” Sahut Ara's.

“Eat nutritious food, Mom. Eat a lot if not nutritious, obesity that there is pregnant women.” It was John who made the others chuckle.

“Finally. ( Finally ). So it's also the seed of candidate Reno Junior.” Andrew said that night he was with Reno and two Js sitting together enjoying nicotine bars in the backyard.

While the women were in the lounge with Dad after dinner. Still excited about Ara's pregnancy that makes them not bored to discuss it.

“Yeah, Finally. I have a perfect happiness now. (Well, finally. My happiness is perfect now ).” Reno said with a smile. “Little F is the same – we are again, Ara's pregnancy, baby only Mother who is not here.”

Andrew and the two J stared at the – men who immediately bowed. Understanding very much there is sadness that is implied in between his happiness.

“She’ll be happy even she’s not here anymore. (Mommy will be happy, even though she is not here anymore ).” Said John.

“I know. (I know ).” Sahut Reno's. “Just feel something is lacking. He wanted to see Little F again. But ga keburu..”.

“Leave it R. (That's R ).” Andrew patted Reno's shoulder gently. “Better lo same focus pregnancy Ara.”

“That's what Andrew says, R. Better you focus on Ara’s pregnancy. (It is better to focus on the same Ara pregnancy ).” Timpal Jeff's.

“Yes you guys are right. (Yes lo all correct ).” Sahut Reno's. “Little F has met and now Ara is pregnant, happy I am right – is perfect.”

“Indeed have to wait for the Kajol to meet first like it's just finally lo same Ara will be a parent.” Chirps John.

“You God damn right, John. (Bener also lo John ).” Jeff chimed. The four chuckled.

“Yuk ah.” Andrew invited Reno and two Js in when he had finished one cigarette. The three nodded and entered with Andrew.

“Boy or Girl yes candidate pound me this?.” Michelle said as she and her parents and two sisters-in-law gathered in the family lounge.

“Laki – male or female alike, Chel.” Sahut Ara's. “This is a gift for Brother Ara and Brother Reno. And we are already grateful enough for her current presence.”

“What your sister-in-law said was.” Reno is back with Andrew and the two Js to the lounge.

“Iya, yes ...” Michelle won't argue. He also just asks. Because usually family – family from among them more want a boy – boy who became the first child in order to be the heir to the family business.

“Alright then, all of us better take a rest now. (Alright then, we should all rest now ).” Andrew spoke while pulling Fania's hand.

Andrew nodded. “Lo if you still do not feel well better do not need to go to the office first. I’ll help. (I'll help ).”

“Well, mending lo rest. There's Nino too, and I'm still a week away.” John Sahut.

“Okay.” Reno. “Tomorrow also I am the same Ara has made a pact with his wife Owen to check the content of Ara in more detail.”

“Yes then, see you guys tomorrow. (See you again tomorrow ).” Jeff rushed to his room to rest, because from tomorrow he was back struggling with work. So did the young men in the Smith Family.

Andrew and Fania also say goodbye. “Make one more grand child for me and your mom. (Make one more grandson for me and your mom ).” God forbid Dad to Andrew.

“Focus to R and Ara’s baby first. (Focus on the baby R and Ara first ).” Andrew flatly said, Fania turned her head a little because she felt that her husband's sentence implied that the – man did not want to have children immediately.

But Fania did not want to guess - a bad thing. Maybe it's just his feelings. So thought Kajol.

“If Kak Fania is pregnant with Kak Ara will be exciting!. Not that time want to get pregnant together right?.” Timpal Michelle.

Fania was about to answer but Andrew spoke up.

“Udah, I'm sleepy!.” Andrew started walking towards his room and Fania. In the end, the Kajol followed Donald who had walked to their room.

“Nald ...” Call Fania when she and Andrew have changed their clothes and are ready to go to bed.

“Heeeemmm?.” Andrew replying with Hem – man – his.

“I'm in college?.” Fania asked when the two of them had fallen on the bed.

“Must be.” Answer Andrew.

“Where did I go to college?.” Fania asked again.

“As far as you love.” Andrew propped his head with one hand while stroking Fania's face.

“So you can't be on campus Michelle, can you?.”

“Why on campus Michelle?. One of those favorite campuses.”

“Iya tau. But it's expensive, right?. Ordinary campus anyway.”

Andrew was silent for a moment. “On the campus where Michelle is, let me more easily supervise you as well as Michelle.”

“I'm not a baby that needs to be watched!.” Fania Protest. Andrew smiled.

“Indeed you are not a baby, but I don't want anything like – again like you.”

“Yes right, in the campus Michelle average – average know you. Know who you are. They must know I'm your wife. Where there might be a brave one, Nald.”

“Who knows?. (Who knows? )anyone wants to try – try to deal with me. Bother you again.”

Andrew said flat and ordinary, but Fania knew what her husband meant. Instantly he remembered the two people who had once tried to separate him and Andrew, yet it seemed as if their fate had become miserable.

‘Nick, Cindy..’ Instantly Inner Fania remembered those two people. Not daring to say the two names again in front of Andrew, given how creepy the husband was when he met Cindy who was detained by Andrew.

Somehow Cindy's current fate, Fania is concerned but unlikely to go against Andrew.

He remembered Nick. At that time there was only Cindy and did not see the – men who were obsessed with her. ‘If Cindy is treated to a cake like Donald. Nick how fate try?.’ Inner Fania shuddered in horror.

Sighs slowly. Trying not to remember some of the spooky events for him since Thailand. Glanced at Andrew who seemed to have started to fall asleep.

“Nald.” Tried calling.

“Hem?.” Andrew's voice sounded soft, it seemed like he had started heading towards dreamland.

“Udah sleeping?.”

“Hem.”

“If I postpone college first how?.” Fania continued to speak even though Andrew had appeared to be asleep.

“Why?.” Andrew replied but his eyes remained closed.

“I want us to program to have a baby huh?.” Although sleepy Andrew still heard clearly Fania's words just now. He opened his eyes and exhaled a rough breath.

“Why?.” Fania asked who heard Andrew exhale violently, while sitting down and leaning on the head of the bed.

“You focus on college first.” Andrew.

“But I want to have a baby, Nald.” Fania said with a smile. “Emang you don't want to have a child from me?.”

“Mau. But ga now.” Andrew's words surprised Fania a little.

“Ga can know delay – nunda.” Fania is still trying to persuade.

“Can we not discuss that now?.” Andrew tried to end his conversation with Fania.

“You why the hell, I don't think I want very much if I'm pregnant cepet?. Name ...”

“I'm not ready!.” Andrew interrupted. “Clearly?.”

Fania termangu's.

“I want to sleep, tomorrow I have to go to the office. Nitey Nite.”

Andrew regained his body, turned off the sleeping lights and closed his eyes without giving Fania a kiss of good-bye.

Leaving the Kajol with questions in his head and heart about Andrew wanting to delay the presence of a baby in their lives.
