This house is back crowded, but this is not the time for school holidays. But still the presence of the five men made the atmosphere more lively. Not that before the house felt empty, it was just that their presence made Qian further harden the volume of music in the room to protect his ears. Yang Qian knew, the Chandra family was full of elegance. Just like the great madam Chandra who always put forward manners. But in fact they are not.
"I'm just lo, you're farting recklessly, aren't you?! Ck, I told you we should've stayed him on the street! Here he's a burden to us!" cerocos Karel on Sam who casually sleeps with his legs leaning on the table. It acts as if this is his own home.
"Not to worry anymore! Noisy know the sound of your rich voice toa!"
Karel flicked his hands into the air several times so that the unpleasant smell immediately left this living room. "Gue sure you were still in the stomach, lo Aunt must have craved sambel pete!"
"Eh, sambel pete tau! Less updated on such rich foods! You're a royal, where do you want to eat Pete!"
"Eh, if you cheat people first, huh?! In the Chandra family, someone eats Pete, except lo?!" Karel still did not want to give up. Especially if his opponent was Sam, he would be fighting for his honor. Especially if they are together, Sam forgets his place. Forgetting that she was younger than Karel, forgetting that Karel was her sister.
"Em, I've, uh, eaten sambel pete." Sam remembered. "Maybe time is still SMP. Take Rean and follow Dion, huh."
"Then you two! If you don't want to get into your grandmother's nagging, you should be polite now!" Erik just came in from the kitchen. Seeing two people in a row, and three others asleep on the sofa. Honestly Shan, Kensie, and
Sean was still too tired to listen to the debate of their two sisters.
"Bang Erik lied, didn't he? How could Grandma be here, right?"
"Yes, really!" this time Karel agreed with what Sam was talking about. Her grandmother was a woman who could not just go and come.
"Who are you talking to?!" Instantly the three of them looked to the origin of the sound. Karel remained silent. He lowered his feet from the sofa. So did Sam who took his foot off the table. It was customary from childhood, they were educated to be polite like royalty. Sleeping, eating, even every day is full of rules that make them tormented. Karel straightened his back, and so did Sam.
Erik saw them quiet. The granny's stern face made the children feel hypnotized. It was only natural that they had been in doctrine since childhood to pay respect to his grandmother. Judging from any side, the woman seemed to have the heart to punish her grandchildren who made mistakes.
The woman walked up from the stairs, approaching towards them. "This is your attitude behind?" They just shut up. Erik's job is just watching, ah maybe less popcorn and soda.
"You raise your voice. Sam, Grandma never taught you to put your feet up on the table. You too, Karel." They're still quiet. Both are looking deep. "But since this is Qian's house, Grandma will give you some leeway." The woman sat beside Karel, not knowing that her two grandchildren had stiffened when the grandmother's steps approached. But then they both smiled.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to be disrespectful." Both of them said that phrase. Qian who had just come with a cup of warm tea in her hand also shook her head slowly. It turns out that there are those who can conquer them besides Ray.
"I'm sorry, I just have regular tea. It may not feel as good as in your home." Qian placed the tea on the table. Then join them, sit on the couch.
"It's okay. I haven't had dragon tea in a long time. It used to cost only five hundred silver." Grandma tried to remember. Decades ago, when she had not yet started her business, dragon tea was her husband's favorite drink.
"Now it's not too expensive, just three thousand. I didn't see it on the market yesterday." The two were still busy with their conversation. Forget Karel and Sam who are still confused by the circumstances. Since when did their grandmother like to chat with strangers like Qian?
...🔹💠🔹...
Ray is confused. His sister was fussy again, even her own father did not know what to do. Now, the little boy was crying so much in his brother's lap.
"The body is a bit warm," Ray examined Ren's forehead, feeling the warm temperature of his sister's skin. "Is it because we didn't have dinner yesterday? So it hurts again?" Ray began to speculate. Unlike Arnold who just fell silent.
"Clearly how? Do I need to call a doctor?" The man began to be confused. Ray looked at her tired. Asking his father won't come up with a solution.
"Relse ... Ren wants milk ..." the little boy shrieked as his cries began to subside. The father approached. "You want milk?! What milk, honey? Let me buy you later. What do you want, hmm? Or if you need to buy a factory so that it doesn't run out?" Ray clucking. The teenager stood up. She took her sister to the kitchen to make food. Come to think of it, her stomach was back to nausea. Maybe because last night he missed his meal. Ah, nevermind. The important thing is that her sister is not crying anymore.
"Dad, don't overdo it! There is still plenty of milk at home!" Arnold followed his son. "But yesterday was running out, Qian told me to buy chocolate!"
"Easy rents bosen the same taste. Sometimes vanilla, sometimes chocolate. Yesterday the vanilla taste was still two boxes, exhausted because it was made the same snack Bang Erik." Arnold was silent again. Because what his son said is true. In front of him, Erik stood in front of the closet. With a spoon of milk in hand and a circle of milk on his lips.
"Hey, what's up, Bro!" Erik exclaimed when he realized Arnold was looking at him in surprise.
"That's milk for Ren! Why do you eat rich food? No other food? If Ren suddenly wants what kind of vanilla?!" Ask the man seriously.
"Ren didn't want white milk .. want chocolate ..." Hearing the child's voice, Arnold was struck by his own words.

From then on, Rion continued to grumble. Not without reason, but his mother who was pregnant young bought all the young mangoes in the market. Look, there are 6 big plastic bags filled with young mangoes. But can it all be finished? What if it's rotten? As if deaf, Nia, the perpetrator was also just silent while peeling the young mango in her hand and devouring it with pleasure.
"Ma, Pa? When we go to his house, Om Arnold brings a young mango anyway? In front of their house there will be. Lagian—"
"Eits, who said the mango was for Arnold? It's got a Mama! Mama's gonna eat it all!"
"But Ma, this is a lot! You won't eat all these mangoes alone!"
"Mama ate with Papa, really. Is it Mas?" Abra just nodded. Recalling yesterday he was forced to eat the sour fruit by his wife. Nia's pregnancy this time was really troublesome. Very different from when she was pregnant with Rion.
The car stopped in the yard. The sun was scorching, so it was only natural that Rion and Abra were getting hot. Not only was it because of Nia's groceries for Qian but the woman also acted as if she was the boss there. Instead, tell them to lift two large plastic bags with a weight that do not ask how much in total. The woman had deliberately bought snacks, fruit, and even food ingredients. He knew, since being in the house Arnold and Ray coconut milk rarely eat instant food. They had to thank Qian and her magical hand that could do anything.
"Oh my goodness, Ma'am. Shouldn't carry this much. Now Qian's got Bang Arnold, she's Qian's walking wallet."
"Lho, it's okay. I should be grateful, because you are now brother-in-law that one is not so ngenes. Thanks for the same attention the kids? Tau also now you have an uninvited guest" Nia said as she glanced at the 5 people in the living room with Ray and Rion. "It's sure the groceries are gone." Qian just laughed.
"Oh yes, Ma'am. Said Rion yesterday she wants to have a sister—"
"SISTER?!" the five young men exclaimed in surprise. Kensie is still digesting Qian's sentence, her mouth gaping even though in it there is still a snack that is still intact. Karel closed his mouth, he could not believe, Rion would have a sister?! That rion?! Same with Karel, Sam was shocked as well.
"Gue wasn't wrong?" Shan shook Sean's suddenly stiff body. That is, later their grandmother will fondle one more grandchild? Finally Sean just nodded his head softly. " Yes, brother, really. Not wrong with."
"Ck, why the hell is your reaction? I want to have an ordinary sister, no." Rion is back playing the game on his phone. Try to stay away with the frenetic around.
"Who wants a sister?" Grandma came out of the guest room. I heard a loud noise from outside. Talking about sister. His steps approached the silent Nia.
"Me, Ma." Abra pulls Nia in his arms. "I want to add another child, now it's a peanut in my wife's stomach. Yeah, right, Beb?" abra said while rubbing Nia's stomach. Grandma just rubbed her face violently. He approached them both.
"I'm sorry, Ma ..." said Nia.
"Why are you sorry, he should be self-conscious!" Grandma pulled Abra's ear. Makes him scream in pain. "Your life is 40 years, Nia. It can be dangerous for you. And this boy so easily said, beans have grown in his wife's stomach!"
"Yes, Ma. Oh, sorry, not anymore."
"You think getting pregnant is easy?! Don't you do good! Well, have a pinter-pinter kid but about the wife and the household on the moron all! Naked your wits, Abraham!" the grandma's banter.
"But you're okay, right? No one's sick, right?" Grandma started asking Nia. And the woman smiled, then shook her head. He feels relieved. All he knows, when he was pregnant Arnold—his youngest son—his age was 40 years. And she knew how hard it was when she was pregnant back then.
"Pregnant with his health, son. Keep eating the same sleep. Don't stress too much."
"Yes, Ma. Abra took good care of me."
"If he's a macem-macem, just a flick of his kidney!" Abra just smiled bitterly. When the two are together it feels like two monsters are united. I don't know what would happen if they stayed home. Maybe all he has to worry about is himself.
"If the same wife is afraid of being extraordinary, the same sister herself has never been horrified!" Arnold who was beside Abra started to grumble. "Dih, the widower ngenes. Iri said it only time!"
Not even the two returned to say one word, Ren first came from the living room while running. He stopped when he hugged his father.
"Dad, Ren can ask for something, right?" Arnold and Abra stare at each other before the two crouch down to align their height with Ren. "Can, Honey. What do you want to ask for? I'll buy it."
"Ren wants to ask for a sister, you can't."
