The After Long Distance Relationship
36

After a journey of nearly six hours from the city, Kai and Meysa arrive at Kai's parents' house.

The Meysa family had arrived an hour earlier and was even welcomed so well by the Kai family. Likewise, at this time, Kai's parents were so happy to welcome their son who came to bring his wife. Meysa is hugged and kissed by Mom and Aunt and Kai's cousins in turn.

“Alhamdulillah, you have finally arrived." Ms. Yuliati immediately welcomed Meysa so special when she heard the news that her son and daughter-in-law had arrived.

“Healthy right, son?"

“Over there Kai doesn't have to take Meysa, right?" ask again while smashing a kiss on Meysa's face.

Meysa smiled when she saw her mother-in-law's treatment. So do Faza and Meysa's parents who feel lucky to see how Meysa is treated well.

Even some relatives and who filled Kai's house also witnessed it. They all look enthusiastic and smile to welcome Kai.

Meysa shook her head while gently rubbing the arm of the in-laws. “Nno, mom. Brother doesn't take it, he's good." Meysa said as she turned to Kai who had just finished parking the bike and followed to the side of the wife.

“Tau himself is this mother's child a good child." Kai clapped while thrusting his hand to kiss the mother's hand.

From hugging Meysa, Ms. Yuliati then patted Kai's hand, but not just to return the child's hand. But Miss Yuliati immediately pulled Kai into her arms.

Kai showed a smile, for the first time he felt so special. Usually the mother never hugged him like this, after all he had never been far away like this with his family.

Although not directly stated, it was very clear if Bu Yuliati was so sad and thought about the child during this week. For the first time they were so far away.

“Remember the same mother said Dad, so a good husband," said the mother who tried to cover up the sadness while patting Kai on the shoulder.

After that, Kai and Meysa were led in by Ms. Yuliati with the help of Tiwi and some of Kai's other cousins.

“This is our home, Mey. Simple, there is nothing fancy here," said Bu Yuliati while driving Meysa and Kai to the room that has been provided.

Ms. Samsuri who since her arrival had heard the words spoken by the besan then rushed closer while embracing him.

“Apa ma'am, same thing. Our house is also so, not from the luxury that is important to be occupied and comfortable to live in."

Ms. Yuliati smiled at the words of the besan. Both look so familiar. Although only arrived a few hours but Mother Meysa was already very familiar with the people there. Bu Samsuri is easy to get along with, as well as Eka the daughter-in-law. Untiring, both of them had started to help do light things.

“Have a rest first while waiting for food preparation first, yes."

“Iya son, wait a moment. Soon the food is ready and we have a busy dinner." Bu Yuliati chimed in on Tiwi's words to Meysa and Kai. The two newlyweds just nodded.

Now only the newlyweds are alone after all out. Kai helps Meysa to arrange the items that can be removed.

“Kalo skincare taro on top there aja bee, so do not be difficult if you want to use.” Kai gave a suggestion while pointing at a table that was on the side of the closet in the three-by-four room.

“Bby." Mesya agreed while putting a small pouch that did contain beauty equipment and the like.

Once finished, the two sat quietly on the edge of the bed with both supporting their hands back. Meysa's clear beads appear to circle the room.

“This is your room?" meysa asked amid the noise from the chatter of the mothers outside.

Kai nodded, his hands moved shut his mouth that was yawning.

“Why, ugly huh?"

Kai's question made Meysa immediately floated a little bogeman in the arms of the husband.

Meysa felt absolutely no guilt, the sharp eyes under the furrowed eyebrows indicate that he was upset.

“Don't like it you said that when I didn't say anything."

“People just want to." Meysa grumbled at length, her eyes again busy circling the husband's room.

“Which one is it, bee?"

“Which is where.” Meysa mimicked Kai's style of speech, making her husband giggle with anxiety.

“Yes sorry, but the room is ugly." The sensitive Kai instantly realized the mistake of his words.

“But I never say ugly, you're the one who talks to yourself."

The way of thanksgiving that will be done tomorrow morning makes Kai's house filled with families who are struggling to prepare everything for tomorrow.

....

In the morning, the weather was clear as if to support the simple thanksgiving event conducted by the Kai family in welcoming the daughter-in-law and children of the brand who had held a wedding a week ago.

Kai who uses modern traditional clothes in white color that has been prepared directly by Kai's brother-in-law, Tiwi.

“Meysa fits this?” asked Kak Tiwi last night while giving her the clothes they would use for today.

Tiwi seems to match the custom dress that he deliberately asked for a modern design for Meysa. “Involuntarily I lengthen, know you are taller than me."

Meysa just smiled at Kak Tiwi's treatment. In Meysa's heart, I hope that the intimacy between the two daughters-in-law in the Kai family can be familiar forever without any problems.

“If you have Kai do not use the uphill is okay, you can use only. It's the songket."

"Yes, holy and clean." Praise Kai with a smile.

Now the two newlyweds appear to sit down to welcome guests who present to give do'a and congratulations. A smile came from Meysa's lips every time he heard how the people who congratulated him told the reason behind why Kai had always seemed like a terrible singles just for trying to be faithful to keep the heart for him who was far away that moment.

“It is fitting that you have never seen you close to any girl, it turns out that your soul mate is a distant person," said a man who seemed to be the same age as Kai, congratulating him while patting his shoulder.

"I thought you weren't a girl." They all chuckled together, as did Kai.

“Yes, the proof is." Kai pointed at Meysa who looked beautiful even though she only used a makes-up polish, unlike the wedding ceremony at her home at that time.

Some school friends and playmates Kai in the village also turned to look at Meysa who had never stopped reviewing smiles.

“Congratulations yes sis, may it last until afterlife.”

“Dikasih, the descendants of the soleh soleha.”

“Thanks for the good." Meysa replied kindly.

The simple event felt so festive and solemn. The two families who were originally strangers seemed to blend in with the familiar. Even Samsuri, Meysa's mother willingly busy in the kitchen without knowing prestige and tired.

Meysa and Eka's mother was happy because the people in the village were so friendly and treated them like family.
