"Lo wants to eat something else, Zee? Let me take it," asked Devan to Kezia who was busy chewing food.

"So soon, it's not even good, Van."

Devan chuckled cutely at Kezia who spoke with her mouth still full of food. Pregnancy hormones make the woman a hobby of eating, so her cheeks now look more chubby than before. It makes Devan feel anxious, and wants to bite him.

"If you eat again, don't talk. It's a gini mess, isn't it." Devan's hand gently rubbed the corner of Kezia's lips that left a little food there.

"Let's be with me, Van. Not good to see people." Kezia brushed Devan's hand off smoothly, not wanting any slander between them.

"Ekhem ...." Deheman's voice from behind made the two turn towards the origin of the sound.

"Abi?" lirih Kezia's. Both of his eyes blinked nervously, as he looked at the unusual gaze that the man had cast. He remembered yesterday, when Abizar rebuked Devan who was always around Kezia. "Devan's just gonna eat again, really." Without being asked, Kezia immediately explained like that. He did not want Abizar to think badly about their attitude this time.

"Oh, huh? Come on, come with me! Let me eat the meal" Abizar said. Then hugged Kezia's shoulders and herded her away from Devan.

"Wait!" Devan's voice halted their steps, "what are you planning, Bi?" tanyanya.

"Plan?" Abizar repeated the word while frowning confusedly, "Gue has a plan what? Don't you have a bad plan to take my wife?" the sarcasm.

"Hhh ...." Devan snorted sourly. The corner of his lips revealed a slanted smile. "Since when have you had a wife?" cibir Devan's.

Kezia who did not want any commotion immediately stroked in their midst. "Udah, uh. You guys are like little kids you know, right? Worrying about the unimportant."

Abizar looked at Kezia not like it. Feeling annoyed by the woman's response who thought Devan's behavior was just ordinary. Especially when the woman softly said to Devan,

"Van, I better go with Abi first, yeah. My family is here, I'm afraid they're thinking things out, too, if I keep on with you. Abi, right, it's here."

"Oh, so as long as I'm gone you two are often like this? Nice one!" batin Abizar grumbled.

Devan smiled in response, "Okay, but don't forget to eat that much! Kasian your baby if it gets hungry," he snorted.

"Sad, attention snobs!" Abizar clucked, then pulled Kezia's hand forcefully to follow him, while Devan could only look at them from behind.

When the night began to crawl with marked skies that began to darken. The wedding party continues until the reception is completed. However, the Abizar family chose to go home first, because Ayura—sang oma, had to rest early because of her illness.

Kezia and Abizar. The couple also decided to go home to Angelina. It was not Kezia's will, but Abizar's will. Because it was not good with her in-laws, Kezia finally complied.

Arriving at home, Kezia went straight into the room and was followed by Abizar. Kezia is still upset with Abizar because of their jealousy while at Aruna's wedding. According to Kezia, Devan was too childish.

"I was horrified, yes. You have no right to forbid me from making friends with Devan. Before I married you, I was already friends with him. He was always there for me, when you were in Japan. I also never forbid you to be close to other women. I don't know what you're doing there, huh? You have a boyfriend, right?"

Abizar was stunned to hear that. Somehow the sentence was like a accusation to him, when it was the reality. "Itu—"

"Not to deny. The voice of the woman I heard on the phone yesterday was your boyfriend, right? I'm not a budeg, Bi. He clearly called you 'honey'. I'm not too stupid to conclude what your relationship is like" Kezia cut it off at length. Abizar loses, and cannot be evaded.

"Okay, I admit. I was already a girlfriend before I married Ma'am, and actually I do not care if Mbak want to be close to anyone, but please do not in a crowded place like that earlier. Moreover, all our family members are there. They know we're married, ma'am. What do they think of Mbak being so friendly with Bang Devan? At least you can hide your special relationship from them."

"I emphasize once again, I don't have a special relationship with Devan, Abi!" kezia did not want to be accused like that.

"Here, I don't believe it. Honestly, Ma'am. I'm being honest, right, if I have a boyfriend. Or ... maybe also the child that Mbak conceived was his son he."

Plaque!

One hard slap landed on Abizar's cheek. Leave a red mark on her white cheeks.

Kezia was inflamed, his breath hunting with a piercingly sharp gaze. He did not accept Abizar's heinous accusation. Truly, the man's mouth asked to be beaten.

"You can think like that!" beaver Kezia.

Abizar remained silent. His words seemed to be stuck in his throat. Especially when Kezia's eye shot seemed to hit his heart. It seemed like the woman was really angry with her words just now.

"If this were Devan's son, I would have been his wife by now. As long as you know, Devan is better than you!" added Kezia with the sarcasm.

Abizar was not happy to be said to be worse than Casanova's man. Devan is a man who is famous for playing with women, while he is a type of loyal man. The proof, he still maintains his love for Selena. Without thinking that he was married.

"Don't equate me with him, Ma'am! Bang Devan is a big-time playboy, and I'm not."

"Huh? If not playboy, then what? Cheater? Huh yeah?" Kezia quipped Abizar.

"Mom!" Abizar glared sharply. They do not accept each other's accusations.

"What's? You think I don't dare to be the same snot kid as you, huh? You are my husband, but you have no right to live my life, because we are married just because of this child. After that we are nobody anymore" Kezia said as she held onto her stomach which began to bulge.

"OKAY. From now on it's up to Ma'am to do anything. I don't care. Fuck our family's good name! They also don't think about how I feel. Marrying the Mother is a disaster for me."

Kezia laughed blandly at Abizar's words. Then he took a deep breath and let it out slowly. As a woman older than Abizar, Kezia tried to be patient once again. However, she is a pregnant woman, she must keep her emotions stable.
