The Geno residence.
That morning, Geno was wearing his tie, while Hilda was polishing her face.
"Tokay! Geck! Geck!"
The sound of knocking on the door made Geno approach the door of his room. The middle-aged man opened the door of his room and saw Nando in front of the door.
"You just got home?"geno asked because Nando had not been home for two nights.
In the past, Nando liked to crawl at night and have fun with comfort women. Now if it's night out, Nando's definitely staying at Bening's apartment.
"Yes. Pa, can we talk?"nando's asking sounds serious.
"We're talking in papa's office" said Geno who saw Nando looking serious. While Hilda frowned when she heard the talk of the child and the father.
Geno and Nando enter Geno's office. Two men of different ages were sitting face to face.
"It looks like there's something serious you want to talk to papa about.Say!"geno's Letters.
"Pa, can you speed up our marriage?"nando asked hesitantly.
"Aren't we in agreement, your marriage will be held in five months? Then..why do you suddenly want to be accelerated?"tanya Geno seemed to be frowning her forehead.
"Because Bening was pregnant, pa" said Nando, bowing his head.
Geno let out a long sigh hearing Nando's confession, "Aren't you guys wearing any safety?"ask Geno.
"I just don't use safety once, pa. It was unexpected to be able to make Bening pregnant,"so Nando let out a heavy sigh.
"So, you want a simple wedding or a fancy wedding?"ask Geno.
"I want a fancy wedding, pa. How long can you manage it?"ask Nando.
"Indeed, how many months has Bening been in?"geno asked, not answering Nando's question yet.
"It's only been a month, pa," said Nando.
"The next month, our company will launch a new product. The hotel construction is still ongoing. So, I'll try within two weeks you're married, "sahut Geno.
"Thank you, pa!"said Nando with a sparkling face,"Em.pa. Are you going to invite Ayana and her husband?"asked Nando doubtfully.
"of course. They're our family, "that's Geno.
"Sorry, pa. Aren't you ashamed of having a daughter-in-law in traveling sales like Dimas?"asked Nando doubtfully.
"Although Dimas was just a traveling salesman, your sister loved him. Dimas is also the man in charge. And for sure, your sister changed a lot in a better direction after being with Dimas. You know for yourself how stubborn your sister is. But Dimas easily controlled it. If we separate them, papa's afraid it will make Ayana depressed. Papa's been talking to the psychologist who handled Ayana. It's dangerous to keep them apart. So, let Ayana be with him. As long as Ayana's happy and fine, that's enough for papa, "sahut Geno.
"Can't papa hire him in our company? It's too embarrassing if our business partner finds out that your son-in-law is a traveling clothing salesman" said Nando.
"Hired him in our company? It seems like a good idea too. But papa can't decide yet. Because papa doesn't know, Dimas is a graduate. Papa will come to their house to tell them about your marriage. All of you ask Dimas, what he graduates," Geno said.
"I think, maybe Dimas is just a high school graduate, pa," said Nando.
***
Geno tells about his conversation with Nando to Hilda. Geno also expressed his wish and Nando wanted to hire Dimas in their company. And Hilda agreed with the idea of her husband and son. Finally, in the evening Geno and Hilda went to Dimas' rented house.

"Tokay! Geck! Geck!"
"Eh, Om, Aunt. Let's get in!"toyib said politely. Geno and Hilda also entered the guest room that is not too big.
"Sit down, Om, Auntie!"toyib then left Geno and Hilda.
Hilda and Geno watched the guest room. Although simple, but clean and neat.How long later, Toyib again brought a tray containing two cups of tea and a plate of sponge.
"At the drink, Om, Tan. Here's the sponge Ayana made yesterday" Toyib said putting two cups of tea and a plate of sponge on the table.
"Ayana can make a sponge?"geno asked while taking a piece of sponge on a plate, then eating it. The curious Hilda tried it.
"Ayana likes to try new dishes and also try various kinds of cakes, Om. He's a smart, diligent, obedient boy. I am so happy to know Ayana. I've considered Ayana like my own sister" Toyib said.
"She has changed a lot after staying with you" Geno said with a faint smile.
"Where are Dimas and Ayana?"ask Hilda.
"So morning Dimas became a supporter of Ayana who played volleyball, Tan. Only, after the game was over, they said they went to the beach, "sohut Toyib.
"Ayanna is not pregnant? Why is he playing volleyball?"tanya Geno was surprised to hear Ayana play volleyball.
Toyib chuckles at Geno's question, "Om and Aunt lied to Ayana. Let alone pregnant, I am sure until now Ayana is still a virgin," Toyib said again chuckling.
"But the doctor said..."Hilda did not continue with her words as Toyib cut her words.
"Ayana told us everything. Ayana pleads with the doctor to say if she may be pregnant. Sorry, Ayana said everything Aunt did to the doctor. From Aunty forcing Ayana to meet with a person named Noval to Aunt locking Ayana in the room, not feeding Ayana, and hitting Ayana. Then, Ayana said about her trauma to the doctor. The doctor called the psychologist who handled Ayana. Until finally comply with Ayana's request to say that Ayana is likely pregnant. So, the content problem is all just Ayana's wits so you don't match Ayana with a person named Noval. And it doesn't make Mr. Parman lose his job. Ayana was traumatized by a man named Noval. Moreover, from then on, Ayana was completely away from all the men, except from me, Dimas, and Mr. Parman" Toyib explained at length.
Geno who also already knew the trauma of Ayana from psychologist Ayana could only sigh long to hear Toyib's narration. Hilda was silent without saying anything. Until finally there was the sound of a motorbike stopping in front of the house.
"Assalamu'alaikum!"dimas and Ayana's voice came from outside.
"Wa'alaikumus greetings,"sahut Toyib.
After entering the house, Ayana was surprised to see who came with her father. Ayana did not expect that her mother came to Dimas' rented house.
"Mommy, ma!"greeting Dimas immediately greeted and kissed the back of Geno and Hilda's hands alternately. Ayana followed what her husband did.
"Have papa and mama come?"ask Dimas politely. While Ayana just silently lowered her head, sitting attached to Dimas while hugging Dimas's arm.
"Not too long,"sahut Geno.
"Is there anything important, until my mom and dad come over these nights?"ask Dimas again.
"Let's go, in two weeks, papa and mama are going to have your sister's wedding. So, papa hope you come. You're coming too, yeah, Yib!"pinta Geno's.
"Yes, Om,"shut Toyib.
"You come to your boutique to choose clothes that you will wear later. Don't embarrass us by wearing cheap clothes" Hilda said, causing Geno to sigh.
"Oh yeah, Dim, what are you graduates?"tanya Geno looks serious.
