Laura was delighted that today Laras invited her home for dinner together. He's been coming since 9 a.m. They will both cook a special menu for dinner.
Berli's story of Ivan's past makes Laura eager to get her heart. Moreover, now he got the opportunity to cook with Laras to celebrate the birthday of Laras and Ivan the same date and month.
Various plans have been prepared to welcome a special night with Ivan. Moreover, the green light from Laras he got from the beginning. Bobby didn't bring it on purpose. He wanted to give a sweet birthday surprise for Ivan to start exploring early.
He was convinced Ivan was a grown man who had not felt the touch and warmth of women for a long time. He has prepared himself for it.
Laura already imagined how nice it would be to be a daughter-in-law in Laras's mansion. With a handsome and rich husband, which woman will not be tempted. Many women will envy him.
“Tante is glad you and Bobby used to come here. Aunty house feels more lively,” said Laras seriously, “Today you do not bring Bobby?”
“I'm also glad auntie could accept my and Bobby's presence. Aunty attention and affection make me and Bobby feel at home here,” Laura is tickled because she does not want her plans tonight interrupted “Her father wants to introduce Bobby with future mother Bobby.”
“You yourself why haven't you started a household yet?” Laras looked at him closely.
“Nothing suitable aunt,” Laura said wistfully, “I want to find a husband who really wants me as I am. Without looking at the physical and so on …. “
Barrel rubbed Laura's arm gently. He realized, Ivan has not been able to forget Khaira. But when meeting Khaira with the sympathetic man and the woman who walks with her, Laras' feelings are uncomfortable.
Seeing the way the man looked at Khaira and the woman with them, Laras was convinced that a serious relationship had been established between them. He did not want Ivan to be disappointed after learning that Khaira had chosen her own path.
The only thing he thought about was making Ivan forget about Khaira immediately. The person he thinks is most appropriate is of course Laura, let alone Bobby who can make Ivan melt.
Laras is confident, Laura will be able to treat all the regrets and disappointments of Ivan in the past, especially in terms of appearance Laura is very expert to make people interested in him. With Laura's existence he hopes Ivan begins to organize his life and continue life in the future with someone beside him.
“Ivan is just like you. The sadness in the past made it hard to get up. Auntie wants Ivan to be back to what he was. If you are a match, aunt is the happiest for you.”
“I'm just a single parent, where there might be a guy who wants me aunty,” Laura pretends to be modest when Laras starts to tell her grief about Ivan.
“You are beautiful darling …. “ Baras looking at him fixedly, “Tante sure, with your kindness and Bobby will heal all wounds Ivan.”
“What aunt does not matter with my status?” Laura put on a sad look. She knows very well that the female-type Laras who easily empathize with the distress of others, “There are still many single and young women out there ..”.
“Tante is old friends with your mama. Auntie believes you're a good girl. Let alone hearing your story about the closeness of Ivan and Bobby. Aunty sure your presence over time will heal all the sorrows of Ivan.”
A cheerful smile rose on Laura's face. The shadow of Ivan's handsome figure with his mustache and bewok made Laura's mind drift everywhere. How he adored him with all his soul. After the attention that Ivan gave to Bobby, he never took Ivan out of his mind.
There would be no other woman who would be able to defeat her charm in luring Ivan. He was convinced that with the help of Laras all his wishes would soon be achieved. And the first plan he'll do tonight.
If everything could go smoothly, he was sure there would be no more rejection from Ivan for his existence. Ivan is the man in charge. He is ready to play his part tonight despite all the risks he has to bear.
“Aunty sure Ivan will be home tonight?” Laura wants to confirm Ivan's arrival. If Ivan does not come home, his plan will fail completely.
“Of course. Today coincides with his birthday and aunt. It never forgets aunt's special day,” Laras said proudly.
“Tante, I want to know about Ivan's past,” Laura is still curious about Ivan because of the confusing news he heard outside.
“Everybody has a past. Aunty does not want to remember it anymore, all very sad.” Baras said quickly. He knew that, not only Ivan was guilty, he also had a share in everything that happened until the separation of Khaira and Ivan occurred.
Laura remained silent. He couldn't force Laras to tell him everything. If the past story only makes endless sadness, he does not want to bring it up. He was sure to make Ivan the happiest man if his desire to be Alexander's daughter-in-law and mistress was achieved.
“Usia Ivan exactly 38 years today. Aunty hopes in the coming year she already has a companion by her side,” Laras smiles expectantly at Laura, “Thanks-gratitude can give grandchildren to auntie. You are still young, there is still a chance to add baby if the moment arrives.”
“Now you rest. Aunty knows you're tired all day helping aunty prepare all the menus for later tonight. We just order a tart cake for Ivan,” Laras said softly to him, “Consider your own home, do not feel hesitant …. “
Feeling already grasping the blessing of the prospective in-laws made Laura more confident. He casually stepped to the top floor, which he knew was Ivan's room. He opened the door and entered the room four times with his private room in his parents' house.
The masculine aroma that penetrated into his sense of smell made Laura's mind wander. He walked over to Ivan's big bed. Without awkward Laura threw her body there while closing her eyes.
Bad thoughts started lodging in his brain. From tonight he won't let Ivan refuse him. After tonight he is sure Ivan will not let go and they will start to design a future together and there is no one there except himself, Ivan and Bobby.
His hand rubbed the pillow that still left the scent of Ivan's perfume. Laura chuckled at the erotic things lodged in her head about what she and Ivan would do on the double King size bed.
Feeling tired from the activities he had done with Laras, and the thought of being with Ivan made Laura sleepy. Unknowingly, he closed his eyes.
Half an hour later Ivan had returned home with a disheveled face and full of sadness. The barrel that was still cleaning up the remains of the unused vegetables was shocked when Ivan hugged her all of a sudden.
“Hey, what happened to you? Why is it like this” Laras guided Ivan to a seat and took the water put him on the dining table in front of Ivan.
“Si twins sick. I can't do anything to alleviate the disease ... “ Ivan's tears are back free sliding.
“Si twins? Who are they?” laras's forehead frowned at Ivan's sorrowful speech.
“My children are with Rara ma …. “
“Yes Allah …. Ivan, are you dreaming?” The barrel pressed down on his rapidly beating heart.
“No mom. This is the real truth. She has a pair of twin grandchildren. My kids are with Rara.”
The barrel slowly sat on the chair. Very surprising news. He looked at Ivan in disbelief. How could this news not be known all this time?
“The Rara family has hidden and covered this truth from us,” Ivan said sadly, “Both are now 2 years old more.”
“Capit between mama and there! I want to see my grandchildren immediately,” without thinking long Laras took off the apron and threw it in just any place.
“Mama can't meet them now ... “ the shrill voice of Ivan covered his grief.
“Mama don't care,” Baras reply quickly. He did not want to miss being with the grandchildren he had hoped for and knew their whereabouts.
The barrel immediately pulled Ivan's hand carrying him out of the kitchen. Curiousness about the existence of his grandchildren makes Laras forget about other things. He wants to see both. A feeling of sadness and happiness perched in his heart hearing that Ivan had given him a pair of twin grandchildren from his marriage and Khaira who were now separated.
“Ma, I want to clean myself and change clothes,” said Ivan immediately remembered the words of Ali who said his face was angry.
“Necessary. Mama wants to see them now.”
Without releasing his hand from Ivan's arm, Laras walked quickly. I don't want to miss this happy news.
“Pak, take us to Mitra Keluarga Bekasi hospital,” Ivan said quickly when he saw his family's private driver was wiping the car glass.
“Yang fast sir!” Laras was already impatient to meet his two grandchildren.
Ivan could not resist the wishes of his mother who hoped to see the twins as soon as possible. Seeing his enthusiasm made Ivan think positively, hopefully with the presence of his mother made Khaira can melt his heart and accept his good intentions.
Hopefully ....
