Yeri and Altez decided on a deal to keep going to work with Altez who also accompanied his wife. Altez was very protective of his wife, no longer as cold and indifferent as he once was. He really wanted to prove that he had changed from all sides.
His handsome face and stout posture were filled, making many eyes look at him as he walked by holding Yeri's hand. Yeri could only willingly accept every treatment of her stubborn husband. Even so, Altez will remain submissive and obedient to the handler.
"Everything?" altez asked as the wife ordered food at a restaurant to take with her to visit the in-laws.
"Yes seems to have it, Mama also has to be careful with her diet, right? So we buy enough."
"Em, you're right. You are indeed the daughter-in-law of your dreams, dear" said Altez as he rubbed the top of Yeri's head.
"Tomorrow to go to the gynecologist? I want to see how big my son is. Is he a boy or a girl?" tanya Altez who made Yeri can only give a head bobble.
Mana Yeri tofu while the size of the fetus is still as big as soy beans. Altez is really minimal in this kind of experience. She should have read a lot from the internet about pregnancy.
"Al?" exclaimed a woman in Ayu's voice with her distended stomach walking closer to Yeri and Altez.
Yeri turned her head and noticed the figure of the woman who was none other than her husband's ex-lover. Yeri was only speechless and seemed indifferent when the woman was acting so pretentious to Altez. Yeri locked her mouth and said nothing.
"This is Ma'am, the order," said the waiter handing over some food parcels.
"Yes, thank you." Yeri received it and immediately rose from his seat leaving Altez who was fixated to see the arrival of the figure of a woman who was two-bodied in front of him.
"Al, how are you? I heard you're married?" ask the woman.
"I-i'm good. Yes I am married," replied Altez stammeringly and looking awkward. "This is my wife" she said, only to realize that Yeri was no longer by her side.
Altez is confused to find the whereabouts of his wife who left without saying goodbye. Is it possible that Yeri is jealous? Or he's fed up with Altez's promises. Just a few days ago promised and now, there's even a pregnant woman approaching. Who knew if the woman would demand accountability from Altez, Yeri thought.
"Sorry Vina, I have to catch up with my wife" Altez said as he ran after Yeri, who was seen riding in a taxi.
Altez immediately gasp and overtake Yeri. He did not understand why his wife left without speaking. Is Yeri jealous?
Yeri arrived at the hospital and was immediately greeted with Albi. "Hi Brother, good morning!" sapana. "How are you?" ask him so kindly.
"Morning!" reply Yeri. "I'm good, you?" asked Yeri while hugging a glimpse of her sister-in-law.
"I'm good" replied Albi happily.
"He's fine, baby. You're healthy, aren't you? Your foetus is healthy too, isn't it?"
"Ma, where did Mama know? Though I wanted to give a surprise," said Yeri who was as if she was upset and then sneered her mouth.
"Your husband told Mama a few days ago. Finally the bad boy changed too." Mama Alda spoke with teary eyes.
Yeri who felt touched then hugged her tightly. She can also feel how all this time Mama Alda struggled alone to raise her children. Yeri was really moved by this situation.
"You want to feed Mama, baby?"
"Yes, Ma. My husband's parents are my parents too. I'm happy to be close and eat with my mom. I'm a bribe, huh?"
Yeri began to open the package she was carrying. "Bi, help me open this food. You also eat yes," said Yeri who patiently opened the package.
They gathered together and wanted to eat. Such a warm, calm and peaceful atmosphere enveloped them. Until someone comes in with a smile attached to his lips.
"Ma" said Altez, who then kissed the back of his hand. "When is it better, when can I go home?" altez asked in such a soft tone.
Just this time in the history of his life, Altez spoke softly to his mother. Albi had been fixated on seeing him never at all like this Altez before. Previously, he was not kind and tended to be rude to his mother.
"Why didn't you come with your wife?" mama Alda asked with a pat on Altez's back.
"So there's a little business Ma, and he's on a lot of business too so we...."
"Yes Ma, Mama don't think no. We, fine Ma, it's just I'm on a lot of work." Kilah Yeri's.
Mama Alda took a slow breath and exhaled slowly. "Yeri, you are pregnant, reduce your busy life and spend more time taking care of yourself,"
"Ma, I've reminded him, but he is very difficult to advise" said Altez, speaking honestly.
Ever since she left, Yeri always seemed to avoid her husband's eyes. He chooses to do something or pretend to be busy. Altez caught something that disturbed his wife's calm.
"Alright, I'll rest later after some business is done, you guys don't look at me like that" Yeri said as she prepared to feed the mother-in-law.
"Mama is happy to see you get along like this, Mama hope you will always be happy together until old age. Eza, you should be able to make your children and your wife happy. Don't copy your father, look at Mama who is in trouble alone raising you both," said Mama Alda with a clear circle that had dripped from the corner of her eye.
It's sad to remember all that. Being two-bodied and even slapped hard by the reality where the husband was found dead along with his affair. However, Mama Alda was able to prove that she was a strong woman who remained resting on her own two feet without the help of a new priest.
Mama Alda slowly pulled Yeri's hand and put it down and held her son's hand with the son-in-law's hand. Mama Alda as if performing a sacred ritual that binds the two of them with invisible threads. Albi could only fall silent and shed her tears.
"Mama is happy you are together, forever like this until dusk." said Mama Alda who smiled at the hands of the child and daughter-in-law who overlapped.
"Yes, Ma" said Altez who then hugged the mother. "Albi, come here," he said to his sister to join them in their arms together.
They look beautiful and warm to each other, as if their bodies are intertwined either by fate or accident. Yeri can only follow the flow because she does not want to make her in-laws back down. While Altez deliberately wanted to show his change.

"Why did you leave me? Why don't you look at me?" altez asked his wife when they were in the car to get to Yeri's office.
Yeri gave no answer and just stared panted out the window.
