The Nick's Life
Happy Moments

With a face, Nick showed the wedding book in his hand. Assisted by Rahardi, she takes care of their wedding documents. Because they are legally married religiously, Nick only has to take care of administration to get legal recognition of his marriage. And now, her marriage to Iza is registered in the civil registry. They just have to take care of other documents such as family cards and new identity cards because their status has changed.

Two families gather at Nick's residence. They purposely gather to celebrate this happy moment, while celebrating Meta's pregnancy. They sat talking while enjoying the food and drinks made by Rina. The girl herself did not participate in the family gathering because she was busy making catering orders. The small businesses he pioneered at the instigation of Arnav have begun to develop.

“Zi.. Nick. Now your marriage is legal under the law. When are you going to have a wedding reception,” asked Diah.

“Yes, when are you going to have a party? Just say it, later let ummi and mommy prepare,” continued Mina.

“If abi and daddy become a hurrah team only yes,” timpal Rahardi who was immediately greeted with laughter.

“If I'm up to Iza aja, ummi,” replied Nick.

“I don't want a reception. Our marriage has been legalized only, I am very happy,” replied Iza while holding Nick's hand.

“But instead, we will hold a thanksgiving by inviting the children of orphanages as well as nursing homes. Share happiness and fortune with them, if you don't mind.”

Iza greeted her husband with a smile. They had talked about this matter before. Instead of spending money throwing parties, the money is better donated to orphanages and nursing homes. They also plan to make donations to other places such as mosques or other charitable institutions that can distribute their alms.

“If your plan is like that, we agree, don't we?” Diah looked towards her husband and her iron. They also confirmed the woman's words with a nod.

“You can't have a reception. But do not delay to give us grandchildren, yes,” Mina said.

The words of the wife made Rahardi's face moody. If only he had not acted rashly, maybe now he could have petted a grandson. Iza who saw the change in her face immediately approached the man and held his hand. Rahardi lifted his head, looking at his youngest daughter's face with a look full of guilt.

“Abi don't be sad. In the Lord, we will soon get in return. Abi don't feel guilty anymore. Just pray for us to get momongan again soon.”

“Iya, Zi. Thank you for forgiving abi.”

“Abi don't say that,” Iza hugged the body of the father from the side.

“Abi don't be sad. I never stopped trying to give you grandchildren. Relax, I'm strong enough, to make Iza's stomach distended,” as well as Nick who immediately got a shot from Iza.

Nick's absurd words managed to melt the atmosphere that had begun to feel sad again cheerful. Rahardi smiled at his daughter-in-law. He still does not think, why he used to hate Nick so much. In any case, the man has more than enough qualifications to be his son-in-law.

“Where's rina?” ask Ridho.

“He's busy, bang. Lately the catering orders are quite a lot. Arnav really-ener totality deh promoinnya,” replied Iza.

“Kor did he work hard rich that. For the sake of the prospective wife,” Nick chuckles.

“Arnav equals Rina?” Ridho was quite surprised to hear that. Busy on campus and fulfill the desire of the wife when cravings, make the man miss the news.

“Kanya the two of them like each other, just still shy meow aja,” Iza said.

“How do you know not yet?” ask Rahardi.

“Numbered, abi. I'm glad if you know, surely a scene will have a daughter-in-law of a Bollywood artist,” Iza giggled amusedly.

“Tuan Takur,” sambar Nick who returned to make the room full of laughter.

Diah got up from her seat when she heard her phone placed on the dining table ringing. Seeing that the number came from overseas, he immediately guessed that the call came from Edo. Quickly, he answered the call.

“Halo.”

“Halo, Diah. How are my son and daughter-in-law?”

“Ck..that's all you ask. Don't you want to ask me?”

“Not to be spoiled. Bryan's been watching you. You don't need my attention.”

Diah laughed at Edo's words. Their relationship is like a friend now. They are in a good relationship for Nick, their son. After all Edo had explained the reason for leaving Diah first and there was no more anger let alone revenge in the woman.

“Nick. I told him.”

“What? Why Di?”

“Waiting you to say it straight away is too long. You also do not give certainty when you will come back here. But take it easy, he can take it well. Nick really wants to meet you and call you papai.”

No answer from across. Right now, Edo's heart was filled with novelty hearing what Diah said. It felt like he flew straight to Bandung to meet Nick, hugged him and heard himself called papai.

“Do not cry. You are ugly when you cry,” taunted Diah.

“You are indeed a woman who has no heart,” Edo replied.

“Hahaha.”

“How about Iza? Is he able to see normally now?”

“Alhamdulillah.”

“Do you want to talk to Nick?”

“Later. I can't stand having to talk now. There's my youngest here now.”

“Why? Does he not like Nick?”

“Not so. If I talk to Nick, I'm gonna cry. That brat will definitely bully me.”

Diah's laughter resounded until Bryan turned his gaze toward her. The man kept looking at the wife who was still talking to no one. Shortly after, Diah ends the call and returns to her husband's side.

“Who called?”

“Edo,” whispered Diah slowly.

“Hmm.. so happy it looks. You must be happy to get a call from him,” Bryan's tone of voice sounds jealous. Diah laughed when she saw it.

“Do not get jealous. I don't love him anymore. I'm just yours Mr. Bryan,” whispered Diah in the husband's ear.

“Then prove it to me tonight. Two rounds,” whispered Bryan.

“Prepare your stamina old sir,” ledek Diah. Bryan just shook his head, the wife was always able to reply.

Rina slammed her buttocks on the sofa while wiping the sweat that soaked her forehead. His body felt tired after successfully delivering 50 pax of rice boxes to his customers. Even a month has he run his catering business assisted by Arnav. He also took one person to help him in the kitchen. As long as he had no place to cook the order, Nick allowed Rina to use the kitchen of his coffee shop.

With a bottle of cold drink in his hand, Arnav came and sat down before Rina. For a moment he looked at the beautiful face that looked exhausted. I want her to be the shoulder for where the girl is leaning. But Arnav still has no courage to go forward. He is still preparing to face Rahman.

“Cape, yes. If you take one more employee how?”

“Do not first. While I can still handle.”

“I'm looking for a good place for a catering location. How about we get this business seriously? You manage, I love capital. I will also help with the promotion. If there is a place, we add the officer. Are you ready if we take the catering project for the wedding?”

There was no response from Rina. The girl even noticed Arnav who looked serious. The words of Arnav who proposed him to open a catering business and will help him, it was not a figment. Almost all of his customers were from Arnav promotions. Secretly Lina began to put a sense of admiration and liking on the man. But Rina did not dare to show her feelings. He was afraid Arnav was still harboring feelings for Meta.

“Rin.. uh even bengong.”

“Eh. Yes, Ar. Can also tuh. But if we want to take a wedding project, it will take a large capital. We need more cookware and also other utensils.”

“Try to make the details, what is needed. I'm also looking for a home for a catering kitchen. It's not good to keep hitchhiking with Nick. If my savings are not enough, then I will apply for a loan to Fahrul cooperative with Abe. Installment is light, make sure you can use my car.”

“Duh, how come I'm not good ya.”

“Hmm. Later about the management I just ask Iza. He must have understood better. If I didn't know about it. Different majors fitting lecture,” Rina giggled amusedly.

“What did you study major in?”

“Tourism.”

Arnav just nodded his head. He dropped the bottle containing the cold drink he had brought, then gulped it down. Two employees of Nick who had finished cleaning the store told Arnav that it would close the store. The man then took Lina out. He was going to take the girl home.

Ayura's body was completely drained, she had already vomited her entrails five times this morning. Denis went to the studio to see the condition of his wife. A week ago, Ayura was declared pregnant after Denis took her wife to the obstetrician. Of course the man of Korean blood was very happy to hear that. Similarly to Azka, the boy was happy to have a younger brother.

Ayura who is first pregnant, just feel the hassles. The age of his womb which had just stepped on one month, made him have to rest a lot. He cannot do his usual activities. His body quickly felt tired, n*fsu his eating was also gone. She only drank pregnant milk and ate fruits.

Carefully, Denis brought Ayura back to the bed. Layed his wife's body, then he took eucalyptus oil and applied it to Ayura's flat stomach. Slowly, Denis rubbed his wife's stomach. The nausea feeling that had earlier doubled him, gradually reduced.

“Abang to studio?”

Ayura's call to Denis has changed. She began calling her husband a brother. Although she was three years older than Denis, she was her husband and he had to respect her. One of them by giving a brother's call to the man.

“There is a fauzan. Later if there is a job, he must be ngabarin.”

Denis opened a photo studio. He rented a shop and opened his business there. In addition to the photo studio, she also receives calls for wedding, birthday or other events. Actually he was offered a job as a photographer in one of the adult magazines, his salary is also quite large. But the man rejected her, he would not stain her eyes at the things that were forbidden to her.

“You haven't eaten anything yet. Eat yes, dear.”

“I don't taste, bang.”

“Dipakseain darling. Pity our children will not get nutritional intake. What do you want, later brother cariin.”

Ayura was silent for a moment, thinking about what kind of food her stomach could accept. Then the shadow of the baso with its steaming broth danced in the corner of his eyes. Coupled with sausage and sambal, making his saliva about to drip.

“Bang.. kaya eat delicious meatballs deh.”

“Bakso? This clock that has been opened where yes,” Denis saw a clock on his wrist that shows at nine in the morning.

“At school deck Azka there is a meatball kiosk, bang. I like to buy there. It feels good, how come I drool.”

“Yes, brother buyin. You just wait here.”

“Ngga want, I want to come. I don't want to yes, the mothers of classmates Azka godain brother.”

“There is, dear. You do not want to be.”

“Totally. There was his friend Azka whose name was Putra. Her mother likes to ask questions about you and Azka. It's really not if you papa, kok not similar, nyebelin kan bang.”

“Yes you have already joined. Come.”

Denis finally granted his wife's wish to join in buying meatballs near Azka's school. Since becoming pregnant, Ayura's jealousy levels have indeed increased. If any woman saw him, his wife would have to rent it.

After wearing his cardigans, Denis took Ayura out of the house while hugging her waist. He opened the car door for his wife. Denis has sold his motorcycle and bought a used car that is still good condition of the engine. Soon the man was running his vehicle.

Denis's car passed through Abe's house which was only three houses away. The condition of the friend's house looks lonely. Abe must have gone to the office, while Sansan was in Jakarta. The plan is next week, the woman will undergo a script trial.

After driving for twenty minutes, Denis's vehicle arrived at the meatball kiosk. In the window inscribed Bakso Urat Mang Dadi. The kiosk has just opened, but everything is ready. Ayura stepped her foot into the stall. Fragrant aroma of this Indonesian food instantly makes his stomach kick.

“Mang has one. Eaten here. Meatballs with toge, mang.”

“Siap bu.”

“Abang want?”

“Bby.”

“One more mix yes, mang.”

Mang Dadi just nodded his head. He quickly placed his first subscription order. Denis chose to sit on a long wooden chair, next to his wife. There were three women in a row. They were about to pick up his son who was going out in a moment. While waiting for the bell to come home, they chose to enjoy the meatballs.

One of the women who came glanced at Denis who happened to have his desk in front of him. The handsome face of Denis who looks like a Korean actor certainly immediately attracted the attention of the woman. He immediately threw a smile as soon as Denis looked at him.

Denis only replied with a faint smile. He received a bowl of meatballs, then gave it to Ayura. Ayura's eyes looked sparkling. He poured a bottle of soy sauce, sauce and sambal and poured it into a bowl.

“Don't get many sambels, baby. You will have stomach pain. Poor our future son.”

“Iya, bang.”

Not much sambal that Ayura put in the bowl, only two small spoons. Then he started enjoying the round-shaped food. So excited to eat, the sauce of the meatballs of sampi floated to his chin. Denis took the tissue and rubbed it. Denis's actions alone made three women who were waiting for a meatball order follow the baper. Had they had a husband as handsome and as romantic as Denis, they would not have been allowed to leave the house.

Denis had just finished his meatball when he heard the sound of the school bell, a sign that first-graders were allowed to go home. He got out of his place and rushed to school to pick up Azka.

When entering the school gate, his eyes went around looking for the figure of his son. Finally he found Azka standing near the basketball pole. Beside him was a classmate and a woman. Denis rushed to him.

“Azka.. How can your dad not look like you?” ask the woman. She was the woman Ayura had told Denis.

“And I look like mama,” replied Azka.

“Masa anyway? You are not too similar to your mama.”

“Like whoever he is, it doesn't matter. What matters is that he's our son.”

The woman nodded when she heard the voice beside her. Azka rushed towards Denis. Several times the woman cleared her throat to get rid of her unpleasant feelings, because she was found to have been chasing Azka with questions that were not important.

“Sorry ma'am, next time please do not ask such things to my son. What if the mother's child is in the Azka position. Will mom take it?”

“Sorry sir. I don't mean.”

“This time I'm sorry, ma'am. But if next time mom still does the same thing, I will not stay silent.”

“Iya, sir. Sorry.”

“Come Azka.”

“Where's the pa?”

“There's a meatball stall. Azka want meatballs?”

“Ngga.. Azka want burger.”

“Let's buy a burger.”

Azka smiled happily. Holding his hand, he walked out the school gate. Ayura who had finished eating and paid for the order waited near the car. The three of them went straight into the iron carriage. The wheels of the vehicle immediately turned away from the school area.

Now it's just a happy moment, because it's almost to the ending. Who is waiting for Edo and his sister please be patient. Soon they're nongol, ok😉
