87. PILLOW TALK
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56It's been fifteen minutes since Jason finished his explanation about Serena. Both he and the Mommy were still silent. Both were busy with their own thoughts. Even the crowd in the cafe didn't bother them at all.
"Mom," said Jason who finally started to break the silence.
Mrs. Adhisty blinked as she turned quickly to her adopted son.
"I'm sorry that I can only tell you now."
A thin, forced smile broke out on her beautiful face. Then she shook her head while wiping away the tears that began to soak her cheeks. Even Jason who also approached then hugged her.
"I .... hmmm," sobbed Mrs. Adhisty who was now even crying.
Their deliberately chosen seats were not easily seen by many people. There is a partition that serves as a barrier altho

The answer just now made Serena's forehead wrinkle. "What, Mom? Your voice is too low. I can't hear you." The beautiful girl turned her head as she straightened up.Mrs. Adhisty hurriedly wiped away the tears that began to flow. "Here, dear. Listen to me." Serena nodded. Then landed her head on Mommy's lap. Receiving a gentle caress on the top of her head that was treated with affection."Jason must be mad at me," said the middle-aged woman starting her sentence again."Why? He's never been that way as far as I know. What did you say?""Hemm I'm already pushing him."The princess chuckled at that. "Forced what? Marriage?""No, no. We forced him to talk...""...about the real you," Mrs. Adhisty continued later. S

Barra laughed. "Are you deaf or what? How many times have I told you that I'm not interested in you? I only want Serena. Period. Do you still not get it? Huh?" Sandra immediately stomped her feet and then looked back at Mrs. Adhisty. As if she wanted to find a defense from her mother."Ma, please. Say something. I don't accept being treated like this by Barra," whined Sandra later."Honey. I don't want my daughter to beg for love like this. You deserve better than Barra.""Why, Mom? Is it because that woman is Serena, huh?" snapped Sandra, who was getting angry. "She's just an unwanted child!""Watch your language!" Barra gave Sandra a sharp look. While Mrs. Adhisty shook her head slowly. Signaling the man to keep his voice down."Alright. We're leaving first. Get well soon," she said, immediately pulling Sandra's arm to get out of there.&nbs

"You have known, haven't you?" muttered Sandra with a face that had been bent sourly. "Anyway, I want you and Mama to get better today.""Baby, I am sorry. I just want to emphasize to your mother that she can't show favoritism between Serena and you. That's all.""Yes, but you went too far. I'm so sad. Don't let this change you," said Sandra. Mr. Jimmy nodded while curling the corners of his lips. There was a feeling of guilt because in the debate earlier he seemed to accuse his wife of nothing. His heart was even more uneasy because he remembered his promise to always trust Mrs. Adhisty at any time. He had even offered to contact Serena."How is it, Pa?""No answer," Mr. Jimmy complained with a worried look on his face."Just send a message, Pa. I'm sorry for you. You've never argued with Mama, right?""Yes, dear. Don't keep defending her. I am getting cornered like t

Early in the morning Serena already saw her mommy who was already neatly dressed in a milky white suit. Her eyes blinked softly as she gathered her life after waking up."Morning, darling," greeted Mrs. Adhisty who now landed a light peck on her daughter's right cheek. "Wash your face and brush your teeth. I have prepared breakfast for us.""Hemm. Where are you going at this hour? It's still six o'clock," Serena murmured as she rubbed her eyes lightly."To meet my future in-laws," she answered straight to the point. The answer just now made Serena immediately widen her sense of sight. A few minutes later she pursed her lips."I wait downstairs, honey. I want to see Jason in his room first." Half an hour had passed. Serena walked down the stairs in her usual work clothes. She let her long hair down with a hairpin that sweetened the left side of her head."You're already beautiful from birth," complimented Mrs. Adhisty. She was amazed that her daugh

Despite being warned by her husband, Tita was still stubborn. She deliberately did not come to pick up Barra from the hospital because she wanted to meet someone."Sandra here!" The exclamation made the name master turn her head towards the source of the sound. Her steps immediately moved towards Tita."Sorry, sis. I had to take care of the contract extension in Bali so it took a while.""Oh. Didn't you say it was over?" asked Tita surprised.Sandra shook her head slowly with a smile. "I'm thirsty. Did you order?""He eh. Already," muttered Tita. The beautiful model sitting across from her then called a waiter and said her order in seconds."Do you want anything else?""No, no. I already ate at home. That's why

"He's weird. I swear." Serena and Mrs. Adhisty then looked at each other and then turned to Sandra who was still venting her emotions. Indeed, the young girl was cursing her encounter with Jason."Drink first," Serena offered as she handed a glass of warm water to her daughter."Thanks," muttered Sandra who immediately chugged the drink almost without a trace. After making sure Sandra was calm, Mrs. Adhisty approached and gently stroked the girl's shoulder."Maybe the way you communicate is wrong. That's why it's like this.""What do you mean, Mama?""Jason is nice.""So you don't believe my words? You've only lived with him for a while and he's been brainwashed," Sandra snapped."Baby, since he was a toddler I have taken care of him," she snapped. "How does he talk to people he doesn't kn

Everyone seems to have left there. Even Tora, who was now walking towards Barra."Where's Papa?" asked Barra, who still looked worried."Papa ... isn't inside." Before Tora could continue to look for Papa again, the approaching steps made both of them turn their heads in unison."Papa!" Mr. William looked confused at the worried looks on his two sons' faces. After storing his smartphone in his pants pocket, he hurried over."Are you okay?" Tora asked first."Yes, of course. What's wrong, and... why are you in the toilet?" his father asked back. Then Tora explained what happened briefly."I went to the toilet in that corner over there," Mr. William pointed to the southwest. "There was a call from my golfing buddy earlier, so

"Honey, come on! Don't take too long. We'll be late." Papa's voice just now made Sandra roll her eyeballs lazily. It was really hard for her to set foot back into the Rhaksana family residence. Not because of Serena or anything else, the woman was reluctant to see Jason since the incident this afternoon."Why do you have to go alone? Do you have to be accompanied by me?" grumbled Sandra who then pursed her lips.Mr. Jimmy nodded quickly. "Yes, yes. I don't feel good if she goes there alone." Inevitably she finally accompanied her Papa to see her Mama as agreed. Sandra just smiled when they stopped to buy a bouquet of roses and some souvenirs on the way. It seems that the love that grows in the hearts of both parents seems timeless. She cou

Serena looked so graceful wearing a white kebaya with an elegant design wrapped around her body. Mrs. Adhisty led her down the stairs without letting go of her hand. Nervous. That's what the beautiful girl was feeling. She was seated not far from the man who would soon perform the Ijab Kabul in a matter of minutes. Not unlike Serena, Barra didn't even dare to look at his future wife because he was busy remembering the memorization that the committee of the wedding had said earlier. It was clear that he didn't want to repeat his mistake when he made the sacred vows of marriage later. So the GM of Erlangga Hotel chose to look down."How is it? Is there anything else you want to wait for?" asked Mr. Committee of the wedding. Both sides of the bride and groom agreed to start the marriage contract process. Since there was no family from Daddy's side left, a guardian from the government was appointed to mediate. It took a while b

Short, concise, and clear. That's what Tita said just now. Tora's wife, who was originally rude and selfish, took Serena's hand and led her to touch her slightly bulging belly. "Let's raise this child together, Serena." Serena still didn't move. Her eyes were teary because she didn't know what to say in response to her future sister-in-law's request."You want to, right? This child will have two mothers and fathers. He'll be so happy," Tita murmured."I-yes, Sis," Rena finally replied. Then the two hugged each other to channel their feelings of love between women. Not long after, Barra came to separate them."Hurry up, sweetheart. You'll be late," Barra whispered later.Serena nodded slowly. Her smile was perfect as she descended the escalator that facilitated her steps toward the airline gate. Mrs. Adhisty gently rubbed her arm to give her peace of mind.***["Look here, you can play baseball too!"] Barra now confidently swung his a

"I trust you with everything.""No, you don't. I want us to take care of it ourselves," Barra broke off, not wanting to hear any argument. "Please, darling!" The puppy eyes and hopeful face of an Adibarra Erlangga made Serena nod while smiling. Inevitably, she moved to unbuckle the seat belt that was still attached to his fiancé's body."Thanks, honey," Barra murmured just as her girl was about to inch back. "Don't want to reply hemm?""No," Serena quickly denied. "We won't get in. Look at Papa standing on the balcony!""Excuses," Barra sneered. Serena seemed to turn off her sense of hearing. She opened the car door immediately. The first sight she saw made her glance lazily. There was Tita, who was sitting in the living room relaxing while enjoying her pregnant milk."Don't mind her. Let's go inside!""No. I'll just go home. It's getting late.""You haven't said goodbye to Papa yet," Barra said, making Serena hesitate. Tita, who saw the

The beautiful green scenery made Serena's smile perfect. The girl carried her fiancé with her left hand, which carried a basket filled with lunch boxes that she had brought from home. The perfume with the scent of citrus blossom that emanated from the body of Barra's fiancé seemed to blend in with nature. It was refreshing and made the feelings it gave a positive impression."Aunt Cintya's daughter is a top therapist for you. The proof is in the therapy," Serena murmured with a smile."Her voice is like a mosquito. It's shrill and annoying. That's why you can't help but obey," said Barra, who was now raising and lowering her right wrist."If it's not like that, I'm sure you will recover for a long time. If we get married, you'll be able to carry me for photo shoots," said Serena while holding back her laughter."You can. You have to," Barra said with a high level of confidence. "Within the next two months, you'll see your brother back to his old self.""And

Tora's wife, who felt offended, was about to come forward to attack Sandra, but her steps stopped when she remembered the bitter experience of losing her baby a few months ago."You better focus on pregnancy. Already want to be a mother but her behavior hasn't changed at all," snapped Sandra who immediately disappeared from Tita's sight. Her breath was still hunting until she returned to Jason who was still in his original position. She was so annoyed that she grabbed the man's glass and drank the contents until it was empty."Why?" asked Sandra as she saw Jason's sardonic gaze."You took my glass," sneered the man.Sandra blinked quickly. Then look at his glass glass which is still half full. He felt embarrassed. "Sorry. I'll replace your other glass.""No need," Jason snapped immediately. Inevitably he looked at Sandra who looked like she was exhausted. "Have you been scratching?" he asked later. Sandra did not answer, but her eyes glanced sharp

Serena immediately turned her head when she heard a knock from outside. She nodded as if giving a code to the team of makeup artists who had just beautified her appearance."You're beautiful," Jason murmured with a smile. "Daddy would be happy if he were here right now.""Yeah. He'd probably stop this show. Especially if Daddy finds out you're marrying the son of his archenemy."That remark made Jason chuckle. "You're such a smartass. Daddy is like that. He would do anything to make you happy. Even when he found out that you were going out with Barra that time."Serena's eyebrows immediately went up one side. Astonished by Jason's words a few seconds ago. Then her foster brother pulled up a chair so he could talk a little longer. Inevitably his eyes directed Serena to do the same."You are always under Daddy's supervision 1x24 hours. Until the moment you crossed over to the orphanage was the last time he hired a secret bodyguard for you.""Forgot? Once you we

"Don't argue. Or I'll kidnap you right now," Barra muttered with a glint in her eye. "Prepare yourself, darling. The day after tomorrow, our engagement ceremony will be held at the Erlangga Hotel at 7 pm." Afterward, the man gave Serena a brief peck on the cheek and then moved out of the car. Calling Serena's driver before finally waving goodbye with a wink. Having just thrown herself on the bed, the girl was again surprised by a video call from her lover. She smiled perfectly after cleaning up from the event.["Hi, beautiful. What are you doing?"] Serena did not answer. Just showing her row of clean and neat white teeth.["You're cosplaying as a toothpaste commercial, right?"] Suddenly the girl immediately got up from her lying position. Then looked at Barra with a sullen face.["Even if you're angry, you look beautiful. You're still beautiful no matter what."] And there are many more pussycat sentences conveyed by Barra. Se

The main event of the seven-month thanksgiving for Fina's pregnancy was over. The guests were invited to mingle and taste the dishes that had been provided."Congratulations, Fina. I hope you're healthy until the birth," Serena murmured while gently stroking her best friend's bulging belly. There was a feeling of joy mixed with envy that she was harboring. Meanwhile, Fina, who understood very well how the sad face changed, immediately grasped her hand."My child will be your child too. He will call you Mama too, Serena. It's just a matter of conceiving and giving birth. You will also be considered as his mother," Fina said with tears already welling up. The two of them hugged each other tightly. No one spoke until Fina's husband approached them."I'm jealous of you guys. It's like brother and sister."Fina hurriedly wiped her tears, then gently elbowed her husband's arm. "Our son will have two mothers. Right, Hubby?"Fina's husband, who knew how Serena was, n

Instead of answering Serena's question, Barra landed a kiss on his beautiful ex's luscious lips. Making the master shocked beyond belief."You!!"Barra kissed Serena. Suddenly, his beautiful girl's tanned eyes widened perfectly. Her lips parted in an attempt to say something, but unfortunately, her tongue was suddenly paralyzed."I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with you. So let's get married quickly," Barra muttered later. The girl frowned as she changed her sitting position to straight ahead. No longer facing each other with the ex who had always been able to make her heart beat wildly lately. Meanwhile, Mrs. Adhisty, who was about to call her daughter, also stopped her steps at the doorway. Realizing that the two of them were having a serious conversation, she backed off. Barra moved closer, eroding the distance between them. He no longer cared about his clavicle, which was sore due to the movement of his
