CHAPTER 42

Pov (Author)

Today Arya and Aisyah are preparing to visit Ryan's house. After making sure the door and fence are locked properly. Arya drove her car away from the compound where they lived. Not to forget Aisyah brought her homemade cooking and also some snacks of production, because she knew the Ryan family really liked the cuisine she made.

The trip to Ryan's house is about two hours, maybe it will be more than that because it's Sunday which will definitely be jammed. Arya focused on driving while Aisyah was snacking on production, occasionally she bribed Arya. They had stopped at the cake shop to buy Maira's favorite cheesecake.

Not feeling a little more they reached the housing where Ryan lived. After reporting to the security guard who guards the entrance and asking Ryan's house because Arya never visited her sister's house, she only knew the address.

They also arrived in front of the white house fenced in black after making sure the house number in accordance with what was told by the security guard earlier they both went down.

But they were a little surprised because the house looked a little unkempt, the grass was a little high, the plants were withered. Because Aisyah had seen Bella's post featuring her house when beautiful and neat. The house is the same but the circumstances are different.

Aryapun dared to go down and hit the bell, although there was a hint of doubt in his heart. Aisyah was told to wait for a while in the car.

Tong

Tong

Not long after the sound of the door opened and appeared the man they recognized but there was a strange, slightly shabby appearance unlike his usual appearance which was always neat.

He seemed surprised to see a guest visiting his house but soon he put on a smile and opened the fence. Aisyah went down to bring their luggage assisted by Arya. Then Ryan invited them in.

After entering the house and Ryan invited them to sit down while Ryan said goodbye to call Maira. After Ryan left, Aisyah cleaned the slightly dusty sofa. She and Arya feel something is wrong seeing the state of her brother's house is quite unkempt. Because they know both Ryan and Bella including people like neatness and cleanliness. The living room condition is also stretch not what furniture - anything other than a sofa and a glass table that is very contrasted with a room that is quite spacious.

It was not long before Ryan returned with Maira while carrying a tray containing two drinks.

"Bibiii, uncle". Shouted Maira so that the visiting aunt and uncle, she ran to hug them. But Arya quickly held her small body.

"Slow down Maira, pity the grandpa in aunt's belly". Arya said to her bangs, Maira looked at them in confusion.

"Are you pregnant Ais?". Ryan asked as he put the drink he had on the table.

"Yes, it's been five months". Answer Aisha.

"Good congratulations to you both, which means Maira will soon have a sister". Ryan smiled.

"Are I really going to have a baby sister?". Maira asked with sparkling eyes.

"Dear you're going to be a big brother". Answer Aisyah while pinching her bangs cheek.

"Horee, I'm so happy. I've been asking for a long time with my father and mother but they don't want to buy a baby sister". The little girl said plainly.

Ryan, Arya and Aisyah laughed at Maira's innocent speech. Then Arya lifted the small body and hugged it.

Ryan smiled at the happiness that emanated from his son's face, after his son's bankrupt efforts always look moody.

"Oyes please drink, sorry just this. Not yet been able to shop. Bi Sumi also returned home". Ryan is lying.

"It's okay, oya this is a little by - by from us". Arya replied while giving the item they had brought.

"Thank you, too, bothered by everything. You guys just come we're happy". Ryan accepted his sister's gift.

"Where's Bella not looking?". Ask her again.

"Oh Bella again goes arisan, it's usual mother - mother". Ryan answered for this he did not lie because Bella said she wanted to go to the police.

"Hm.. So yeah. Oya mas how to launch? I saw Bella's mother's status yesterday when she worked in an office?". Ask Arya.

"Ehh. smoothly. Yes, Bella now works in the office so there is busyness she said, all add experience". Ryan replied lying again, he covered his nervousness with a smile even though it looked stiff.

"Thank God, then, I was worried about Mas because there had been no news for two months". Aryan.

"I'm sorry, not not if you don't want to tell the news but you know for yourself how crowded the business of Mas, so Mas is very busy". Ryan tried to look calm.

"How do you guys work?". Ask Ryan back.

"Alhamdulillah Mas, our efforts are more advanced as Mas's efforts. We plan to move our stall to a new shophouse. Maybe after the inauguration of the Aisyah scrub production site, a new field opening. Help her pray, may it be done". Answer Arya.

"Alhamdulillah Mas also happy to hear, without you asking for sure Mas always pray for you". Ryan smiled but his heart was hot to hear the success of Arya and Aisyah. He envied them, he had always been superior to Arya. There is a feeling of not accepting that now Arya is far above him.

After a few hours of chatting, Arya and Aisyah came home because it was late afternoon. They had wanted to wait for Mbak Bella to come home but the real thing that awaited did not come home.

Ryan escorted to the front of the fence, and Maira waved to her aunt and uncle. Arya's car passed by leaving the housing where her brother lived.

After their car is no longer visible, Ryan invites Maira to enter and lock the fence and door.

Maira passed by the room carrying snacks and cakes given by Arya and Aisyah, while Ryan sat pensively on the living room sofa. She did not expect her sister and sister-in-law to visit her home. Surely they think about the condition after seeing the state of the house that is not taken care of.

'Damn why they even came here, he must be willing to show off, you arrogant. Don't let them know I'm broke. I don't accept now Arya's more successful, than ever I've always been superior to her'. Ryan murmured bitterly at the envy and hatred towards his sister.

Meanwhile

On the way home there was no chat between Arya and Aisyah, there was only the sound of songs played by Aisyah using a mobile phone connected to the car audio. They also stopped for a while to pray and buy roadside food to just fill an empty stomach, after which they continued the journey.

Not how long they got home, a little faster than when they left earlier. Once the car is parked, they immediately go down after making sure no items are left behind.

After unlocking the fences and doors, they passed into the room to clean themselves and change clothes and rest.

Arya was sitting on the bed, she seemed to be thinking about something.

"Mas why?". Ask Aisyah.

Arya sighed. "In the mind of Mas Ryan, you saw for yourself how Mas Ryan and Maira looked, not to mention the state of their home. I knew that if we were to visit we had to go home mute and blind. But Mas can't so much relieve Mas's anxiety because they're our family. Although Mas Ryan said everything was fine but with what Mas saw himself Mas knew something was hidden". Arya expressed her concerns.

"Maybe Mas Ryan is not ready for the story, we just pray that anything is not a bad thing. We pray well - good for them". Aisyah's words calmed her husband, even though she was just as worried as Arya.

Seriate.
