Wedding Agreements
60. Compliments or ridicule

“ Eemm, Mr. Jonas. How long has it been with the young master?” nara asked Jonas who picked her up from Esmod this afternoon because Aryan still has an important meeting that can not be left . 

“ Since Mr. Arya is alive , Young mistress.”

“ Wow, means you guys are big and growing together ? Terrific ! Your friendship is amazing,” praise Nara shrieked in awe at the loyalty of a Jonas who did not diminish despite years together.

Jonas himself only threw an awkward smile as Nara refused to sit alone in the back and chose to be with him on the front bench. 

“ Sorry, just call me Jonas like Young Master.”

“ Don't. It is impolite of me to call the elder without frills in front of him. You're the same age as 'em, right?” 

Jonas nodded back.

“ Then I call brother only, yes ?” 

Jonas again could only scratch his head without rejecting anything or assuring it. The man was also worried that Nara would ask him various things about what and how the figure of Aryan and so on.

But fortunately Nara is not the type of person who is very kepo until they just chatted normally without touching anything that burdensome Aryan to answer. Even the first time both in the same vehicle alone, Nara can already be familiar with a man who according to Nara is much more calm and friendly than Aryan who is not clear flow of mind. A moment good, a moment of emotion and then changed wrath and finally apologized. 

“ Brother Jo, can you just drop me down below? I want to buy something first in the supermarket,” pinta Nara when Jonas has deflected the vehicle into the super spacious yard of this luxury multi-storey building.

“ Please, Young Madam. I parked the vehicle first after this I follow.”

Nara was dropped off right in front of the entrance to the supermarket of the building's facility headed straight into looking for small meals and fruit because the snacks Oma gave her the other day had run out .

Since becoming pregnant and busy, Nara so like to eat anything even though her weight also does not rise specifically. Pushing a trolley, Nara quickly entered the food and fruit aisle. While Jonas kept a safe distance to look and watch around with his super sharp gaze. 

Nara still choose citrus fruits while inhaled fresh aroma, enough to reduce the nausea that has gradually decreased. While shifting the trolley, suddenly there was a hand that held the edge of the object until Nara suddenly looked up.

A maternal smile now greeted him.

” Hi , we meet again. Yesterday I didn't know your name.” 

“ Mom !” Nara bit her lower lip during release calling Ayana by name. 

“ Is fine. I am your mother-in-law, right?”

“ Elnara, call me Nara,” said Nara so happy with the presence of her mother-in-law who suddenly accepted her presence at Aryan's side without asking who and where she came from.

Nara is now unrelenting to kiss the tip of Ayana's hand and the woman replies with a warm embrace of a mother who is so comfortable for Nara at this time. 

“ Can we chat casually for a moment?”

Nara nodded and now the two are together in a corner cafeteria located on one side of the supermarket. At first Nara was subdued because Ayana had an aura almost like Oma Herlina who was calm but still intimidating. 

“ How is your household doing? No problem, right? Aryan is good with you, right, Nara ?”

Nara only nodded when Ayana's voice was so similar to that of her mother who was very patient and motherly. “ Aryan is very good,” said Nara who did not want to make other words despite wanting Nara to say that her husband was so annoying. 

“ Thank goodness. Mama can only pray that your household will continue to be filled with happiness. Oh yeah, Mama heard you guys are going to have momongan ?” 

Nara is increasingly downcast that Ayana has known that she was pregnant before they were married, rather Nara felt embarrassed. Finally he just nodded with his nod. 

“ It's okay, Son. That child is a gift, you're lucky to have it soon. Can Mama hold it? How many weeks has it been ?”

Nara's nose warms up with the little attention Ayana gives her. Nara even as great as wishing they could stay together or at least get to meet every day.” It's been almost sixteen weeks.” 

Nara also positioned herself so that Ayana could extend a hand to her stomach that felt hardened at the bottom. Ayana smiled shadyly. “ May you be healthy and blessed until later giving birth.” 

“ Thank you,” replied Nara almost burst into tears if only she did not hold it. 

Being around a mother like this really makes Nara calm and peaceful. And this opportunity will not be used by Nara to dig deeper into the past of her mother-in-law and her husband. Nara really wants to enjoy the time together without ruining it with a situation that makes them uncomfortable. 

“ Oh yes. Do Opa and Oma visit you often?” 

“ Good , Ma. A few days ago Oma sent Nara a lot of food.”

“ Thank goodness !” Ayana seemed to be breathing heavily. “ Is Opa also good to you, son? He accepts you?”

Nara's heart immediately beat violently when she saw the face of her mother-in-law who immediately turned moody.

“ Me-indeed, why yes,Ma?”

Ayana shook her head and stroked Nara's hair, which was stretched to her back.

“ Eemm, it's okay. If your relationship is okay, Mom is calm.  Mama pray for the best, do not let what you experienced first repeated to you, Nak.” 

Nara now held her breath into the chest. There was an implied message that the woman tried to convey to him but like being held back. Nara wanted to ask this question, but where should she start? 

Suddenly Nara felt very worried because Ayana's expression was like harboring something painful. 

“ Oh yes, dear. Mama there's something for you.”

Ayana then took out a box that resembled jewelry on her daughter-in-law and opened it until Nara turned her head. Ayana took out a necklace enthroned in white gold with a shiny blue pendulum.

“ This necklace gave the late Papa Aryan to Mama, now it's yours. Mama is glad Aryan has found her soul mate. You wear, yes,” pinta Mama Ayana then put the necklace to Nara's neck and give the rest of the jewelry in the box to Nara's hand. 

“ Thank you, Ma.”

“ You are a good child, will definitely be happy with your only son Mama.”

Nara was still holding the pendulum of the necklace until she was not aware that a big step was approaching her. 

“ ELNARA !” 

Nara was aghast as Aryan's voice had already jolted the lightning bolt that struck . Likewise Ayana who is no less shocked by the sudden arrival of Aryan. 

“ Why are you here!” 

“ Aryan , Don't yell like that,” prevent Ayana who sees the flash of reddened eyes Aryan who is like ready to pounce on her prey. 

“ Home !”

Nara immediately stood up in fear as Aryan again let out his rising voice. 

Nara turned to Ayana who nodded and Aryan roughly pulled his wife's wrist and dragged her until the jewelry box that had been still in Nara's lap now fell. 

Ayana to shake her head with the hardness of her son's heart, until then Jonas came and took Nara's groceries left behind. 

“ Jo, I just want to meet Nara. Why are you complaining to Aryan?”

“ I'm sorry Mistress,” replied Jonas without giving a reason until Ayana forced to give the jewelry box to Jonas to give to his daughter-in-law.

“ Aryan slow down !” peekik Nara who could not keep up with the big steps of her husband who dragged his hand towards the elevator.

Nara held onto her stomach which was already uncomfortable because Aryan to the point of stomping her body as soon as she entered the elevator that took them up. 

“ Why are you angry, Ar?”

“ Who allows you to meet and talk to him ?” aryan. 

Nara did not expect Aryan's reaction to be so strong. Until the elevator has brought them to the penthouse floor, Aryan still drags Nara's arm until entering the house and Ina's bik who sees them to be worried. 

“ Aryan, you are why ! Your mother came to see me and asked to speak her mind. What wrong? “ Nara is still trying to defend herself because she thinks Aryan's anger is unwarranted.

Seeing that there was a necklace that glistened around his wife's neck, Aryan was getting angry and pulled the end of the necklace until it slipped from Nara's neck and threw it into any place. 

“ Aawwhh ! You hurt me, Ar !” Nara held her neck which immediately felt sore.

It did not stop there, whether the demon what made Aryan then pushed Nara's body to the sofa until the woman squeaked in pain. Aryan was like possessed by an evil jinn to hurt Nara that cruel . 

Nara is now holding onto her stomach which is hurting. “ Aakkhh! You really are the devil Aryan !”
