Trapped On The Bride's Night
69. Arriving

At 1pm local time, Aura and Rayyan finally arrived at a highland area that did not show the slightest hot weather. It is very cool and as far as the eye can see there are many sights that spoil the eye. Not a beach or lake, but here Aura can see the mountains and hills of the line that the distance looks very close. Many strawberry gardens, as well as towering pine trees.

"Mas, it's really cool here" said Aura. Although their trip was far away, but did not make Aura tired because it turns out he liked the scenery presented along the way.

Rayyan only responded to Aura's words with a faint chuckle. Actually, in his heart of misgivings, he did not want Aura offended by his grandmother's welcome later. But, how else, this was his own wife's wish, so from the beginning Rayyan had told Aura to prepare herself.

"Mas, I'll pick strawberries later. Um, if we can buy the seedlings as well. I want to plant it" said Aura with her request that was always beyond Rayyan's expectations.

"Yes, Honey. Aye." Yeah."

Rayyan was happy to see his excited wife. They not only went alone, but with Mr. Deri and a driver who delivered both.

"Thank you, sweetie." Aura hugged Rayyan's neck with a fern.

"Hm ..." Rayyan mangosteen, "but you want to plant a strawberry tree where, honey? Don't we have a yard?" tanyanya.

Aura nodded, she thought Rayyan's speech was correct as well. But he still wants to do it.

"Later we buy a pot, continue to be placed on the balcony of the room. Easy, right?" aura said with an idea that she felt was brilliant.

"Hahaha, the weather there will be hot, later if the strawberry plant dies, you do not cry yes."

Now Aura pouted. "Nothing has been done dead my plants," he said pretending to sulk.

Rayyan carried Aura in her arms. "Yes, yes, then plant more than one, so if one dies there is another," he said to calm the wife.

Aura sniggered now. "You're the best, Mas" he said.

The journey that is quite time-consuming finally reached the point of the intended location.

"We've arrived, sir." Mr. Deri looked back and reported the situation to Rayyan who was busy serving his wife's conversation.

"Please go down first, yes. I still want to talk to my wife" said Rayyan and Mr. Deri nodded respectfully.

After Mr. Deri and the Driver got out of the car, Rayyan immediately looked at Aura sitting by his side.

"As I said, grandma is different, so you have to be ready whatever she says. Don't be offended. Prepare your heart and your mentality."

"Yes, Mas. Just calm. If Grandma gets angry with me later, consider it a reply because I used to be angry with her grandson, too," replied Aura joking.

"There are you."

Rayyan sneaked slowly before finally inviting Aura to get out of the car.

"Mass?" Aura pulled Rayyan's hand first before they set foot outside the car.

"Why?"

"If grandma's mouth is too sore for me, can I say no, Mom?" tanyanya accompanied by a wide grin.

Rayyan chuckles now. "Don't fight grandma, honey. If the grandmother passes, you go and avoid it" he warned.

"Okay, Mas."

Both of them had actually gotten off the Rank Rover car that was used to heading to that place.

A large white house looks very contrasted with the surrounding green scenery. It was more like a villa than a regular residence. The aura felt very cool and comfortable here. But maybe the atmosphere will disappear because the residents of the house, I don't know. The aura should be prepared from now on. Honestly Aura was also a little nervous.

"There are 5 rooms here, the only one I used to occupy. After I'm not here anymore, maybe the room is empty, only I've called Mbok Jum to clean it up. So we'll get to that, yeah."

Aura nodded with her husband's speech. They had already entered the grounds of the mansion and were immediately greeted with an ART who was not too old.

"Good day, sir. How are you?" greet the Art.

"Hurray, Madam Niar. I'm healthy. Ma'am himself, how are you?"

"Thank God I'm the same Mbok Jum is also healthy, sir."

"grandmother?"

"Ehm, Madam's been unwell lately, sir."

Rayyan immediately turned to Mr. Deri, and the man who was stared at immediately nodded at Rayyan as if confirming the words of Mbak Niar.

Rayyan sighed softly, then caught on if Mbak Niar continued to look at Aura with a meaningful smile. Rayyan did not want ART to misinterpret who Aura was here, so there was no harm in him introducing his wife.

"It's Aura, Ma'am. She's my wife."

"Sir Rayyan is married?" respond to the woman with a shocked look.

Rayyan nodded and invited Aura to enter the main door. While Aura, seemed to be smiling kindly at Mbak Niar who was still staring at him unblinkingly.

"Where are you going, Ma'am?" ask the man later.

"Mbok Jum again sent lunch to workers at the farm, sir."

"Oh. My room's been cleaned, right?"

"Already, sir."

Rayyan immediately invited Aura to the location of her room. He wanted Aura to rest before meeting her grandmother. Followed by Mbak Niar who brought their luggage which is not too much because they will be there for only a few days.

Unfortunately, their steps stopped when they found a elderly woman in the corridor of the house. Yeah, it's Grandma Rayyan. It seemed like he had also heard that Rayyan was coming to the house.

"Never visited, and then came here with women. Is that worth it?" sarcasm Grandma.

"This is my wife, Grandma" Rayyan replied calmly.

"Why did you bring your wife here? Do you think I'd take it here?"

Grandma chuckles. "The more arrogant you are, Rayyan. Did you marry a rich woman?" he was accompanied by a coughing sound at the end of the sentence.

Aura was concerned about the elderly woman, he immediately asked Mbak Niar for help to get drinking water for the grandmother and immediately Mbak Niar ran to take a drink.

"This, Grandma. Drink first .." said Aura trying to be polite considering if it was a respectable parent.

Trang !!!

The glass containing the drink was immediately pushed aside by the grandmother and fell scattered on the floor.

In Aura's heart, Grandma Rayyan was really very testing of patience. Here Aura understands why Rayyan's patience has been very tested.

Aura and Rayyan looked at each other.

"Not seek my attention. I don't know you, so don't bother me here." Grandma left after saying a sentence that made Aura quite surprised. He never intended to disturb Grandma.

Rayyan rubbed his wife's back. "You're okay, right? I told you we shouldn't be here" she said.

"Mass? We're going to go in yuk's room!" invite Aura who looks as if nothing happened.

...***...

After cleaning up, Aura and Rayyan were already preparing for dinner. However, before actually leaving the room, Rayyan again warned his wife.

"Darling, are you sure you want to eat at Grandma's table?"

"Well, where else do you want to be?"

"We ate in the room, yeah. Or no, we eat in the backyard, have Mbak Niar prepare it."

"Mas, I thought Grandma was lonely all this time. So, when we're here we should show her that grandma still has a family" Aura said.

"But, Ra. I can't see grandma continuing to treat you rudely, I could be talking to grandma later."

"You're quiet enough, let me take Grandma." Aura showed her chest in a very confident style, making Rayyan finally relented and allowed to follow his wife's wishes.

When they arrived at the dining table that had been served a lot of food, Rayyan did not find Grandma there. With Aunt Inggrid. Speaking of Aunt Inggrid, maybe the middle-aged woman never returned to the house on the farm. I don't know, Rayyan does not know and later he will ask Mbak Niar or Mbok Jum.

Rayyan was just about to eat quietly, because it seemed like her grandmother would not want to have dinner with them. However, the sound of Aura managed to make Rayyan stop her movement who wanted to flip the dinner plate.

"Grandmother where? Why don't you come to dinner together, Ma'am?"

"The big lady doesn't want to eat here, ma'am, '" said Ms. Niar.

"Why?"

"Darling, this is normal. That's why you don't expect Grandma to join us at the same time. Now you eat, yes. Let Grandma Mbok Jum's business be the same as Mbak Niar who takes care of it."

"But, Mas?"

"Udah, you eat first."

Aura complied and tried to enjoy her dinner with her husband.

"Well, what's this dish called, Mbok?" tanya Aura pointed to a menu of food served when Mbok Jum poured water for them.

"That's called pindang cooking, ma'am. What does it feel like not to fit on your tongue?" sahut Mbok Jum's.

Aura shook her head. "Enak, Mbok. I liked. Can't teach me how to cook. You see, my husband wants to be convinced of me" he said, winking at Rayyan who was silent with Aura's behavior now.

"E-eh, kirain mom doesn't like her cooking."

"Enak, Mbok. Isn't that right, Mas?"

Rayyan nodded.

"Would you like me if I make this?"

"Yes, honey."

"Well, Mbok. Please teach me, Mbok."

"Yes, Mom." Mbok Jum looks clumsy, he thinks his employer's wife is a arrogant woman apparently Aura looks not awkward and instead deliberately familiarize themselves with those who are just workers in the house.

After eating, Aura and Rayyan sat down to relax in front of the TV. When Mbak Niar served a snack for them there, Aura immediately asked Mbak Niar about the grandmother's dinner, whether it had been delivered or not and was answered by the woman.

"Mas, I found Grandma, yes, Mas."

Rayyan was immediately stunned by his wife's request this time. It turned out that Aura had not given up either after receiving rough treatment from her grandmother this afternoon.

"You're really curious, aren't you? Still cool to make grandma soften?" asked Rayyan who was inexhaustible with his wife.

"Yes, Mas. I'm sure Grandma will change."

Rayyan put her i-Pad on the table. Then looked at the clingy Aura.

"I don't know to what extent your patience with grandma, but I've tried to melt Grandma for years still doesn't work. So, I beg you not to try too much, I'm afraid your efforts will be in vain and it will have the same impact as your disappointment is getting bigger later."

"I'm still trying, Mom." Aura persisted.

"You were horrified by yourself this afternoon, Grandma thought your arrival here was disturbing him. Well, if now you stop by her room it's the same as you actually want to bother her, honey. Don't, yeah," stop Rayyan.
