WHY LOVE
In the Middle of the Big Family

The party is over. Tonight belongs to a happy couple. Nico felt like he had to say thank you to Mother. Dipingit for three days turned out to be effective in saving longs and desires.

Be this week's night a long, tiring night. Two people who are still warm as newlyweds, fused together under a soft blanket covering two innocent bodies after a hot romance until both bodies wet with sweat.

Nico gave a kiss all over his wife's face which he embraced with all his feelings.

"Mas-" Suci slightly stretched her body to be more comfortable in her husband's confinement.

"What, dear-" Nico degraded his body until his head rested on the wife's chest. He closed his eyes enjoying the soft fragrance of his wife's skin. His heartbeat was clearly heard in Nico's ears.

"I will obey you as a wife, forever, all the ages. Mas Nico must promise to trust each other and be loyal to each other, never betray me!" Suci rubbed Nico's hair that was still on his chest.

Nico looked up at the face. One kiss landed on the Holy lips. He changed the position of raising his back to lean on a stacked pillow. Now, the Holy Head he reached to lean on the field.

"Trust me, baby. You are the only one who reigns in the heart. I will be faithful and we must trust each other. You already have my body and my heart, it's impossible to betray you." Nico dyed long the top of his wife's head. Funneling abundant affection filled the heart.

"I'll-"

"Sstt, already. Don't say much. Better proven by action." Suci shut Nico's mouth with his fingers not to continue speaking.

Nico smiled in anguish. He overthrew the Holy body until now under it.

"Eh, what do you want?" The saint held Nico's chest which would bring the face closer to her neck.

"You again. Do you need action rather than speech-" Nico looked at Suci with a raised eyebrow.

"Isshh basic pervert! Not this but.hmphh."

Suci was unable to continue speaking because Nico was silencing his mouth with his lips. He frowned greedily on the lips of his wife who had been swollen because of her actions.

The night continued to creep past midnight. The hour hand does not stop turning, moving towards the early morning. But the couple did not care how fast it moved. The presidential suite bridal room is a silent witness to how the man is always eager to continue heating the body even though the body he is in is starting to suck and sleepy. But he remains on fire.

Sunday afternoon, Nico and Suci left the hotel for Hendro's father's mansion. Arriving at the courtyard of the house, before descending the Saint looked back at his face with a powder mirror. He applied peach color lipstick and swept a thin powder to cover his pale face due to lack of sleep.

"It's beautiful." Nico teased Sacred who was patting the powder sponge on her cheek. He waited for his wife to get out of the car at the same time.

Sacred pursed her lips while glaring. "It's because of you, Mom. My face became pale from lack of sleep."

Nico chuckled softly looking at the sullen Saint. The opposite of Saints, he even tasted fresh and light after two rounds of fighting until the early hours.

Hand in hand, the two entered the door of the teak house that opened while saying hello. Inside, the extended family was still gathered yet to return to their respective cities.

"Hore Holy Aunt comes-" Naura cheered excitedly and ran hugging Holy's legs until her steps were restrained. It had only been a few days, but the little girl was already feeling like and comfortable with her new aunt.

"Udah has a new aunt so forget the same Om Nico!" Nico pretended to frown, folding his hands on his chest.

Naura was not affected. He even threw his tongue toward his Om and then pulled the Holy hand into the dining room where the family still gathered after lunch.

"Nico, Saints, let's eat first!" Mother welcomed the two happily.

"We've had our check-out time, Bun." Sacred replied as her hand was swayed by Naura clinging to him.

"Darling, I don't know you yet with Mami Dewi." Nico led the Saints closer to the very end of the chair. He explained, when high school in Surabaya and stayed at the house of Mami Dewi who was none other than her sister Mother Devi. Suci also experienced it with reverence which was answered by a gentle rubbing on the Holy shoulder.

"When do you want to go to Surabaya? Mami wait!"

"Yes Nico, Holy. Honeymoon in Bali." Jimmy, Anita's husband is chiming in.

Nico clasped Holy's shoulder. Both of them were still standing as the dining chair was fully filled.

"Let's schedule it. Right now we want a honeymoon to Italy, next week." replied Nico representing Saints who only smile in response to their invitation.

"Why not go on Thursday? Long weekend." Anita who was peeling oranges was a little surprised by the time Nico chose.

"Nico has an office task that cannot be represented. No problem not going on long weekends either." Hendro's father who had been a listener, now joined the voice.

"No, Dad answered," said Nico without taking his hand from hugging his wife's shoulder.

Towards the afternoon, Suci accompanied Naura to play on the back terrace overlooking the pool and beautiful garden neatly arranged. They are playing congklak purchased online. Several times Naura screamed because she lost the game, her cogklak seeds fell in an empty hole.

"Tante, I'm thirsty. Take a drink first!" Naura ran into the house to the kitchen.

While Naura is not there, Suci checks her phone. He smiled reading his friends' comments about his wedding photo uploaded this morning.

"When did you know Nico?"

Suci is surprised by Jimmy's sudden arrival and sits in Naura's chair, until they sit face to face.

"Eh, Jimmy. I'm surprised." Sacred spontaneously held onto her chest which followed Jimmy's gaze which led to a bulge on her chest. Holy Hurry lowered the end of the veil slung over the shoulder until it dangled down.

"I knew Mas Nico for two months, while working as his secretary." Answer Holy potluck. He turned his head towards the door, hoping that Naura would come soon.

"You want to rush into marriage. I don't know how Nico is. I mean, marriage isn't as sweet as courtship. The first year of marriage may still be friendly and romantic. Getting here will feel bland and boring." Jimmy spoke in half whisper while leaning his face all the way to the center of the table.

Is she talking about her married life ...

Sacred frowning. He slowly turned his seat back to the back of the chair. Her sister-in-law's gesture made her uncomfortable.

"Me and Mas Nico aren't dating. We decided to date after marriage to avoid sin. Pray for Jimmy, that our household may be blessed and blessed."

"Darling-"

The saint turned to the origin of the voice. She smiled with relief at the sight of her husband in the doorway, walking up to her.

"Are you guys playing congklak?" Nico looked at Suci and Jimmy alternately.

"No, Mas. I played with Naura. He went back to the kitchen and took a drink, and then his Papa came . Not long ago." The Saints explain what it is. She caught the implied dislike of her husband's face. I don't know why.

"I'm going inside first. Please if you want to play congklak." Jimmy stood up and chuckled. He patted Nico on the shoulder as he passed by.

Nico asked Saints to shift her seat so that she could sit by his side.

"Darling, don't get too familiar with him. Yes, yes, yes!" Nico kissed Holy's cheek and took him away from there.

Wanted to ask why, but Nico pulled her hand and took her upstairs to their room.
