Today was a holiday, Mona was a little dizzy and hot. She only washed her face and brushed her teeth, looking into the fridge to find no ingredients for cooking. Stepping hesitantly towards Arka's room, just about to knock the door was already open.
"What are you doing," Arka asked coldly. "T-that's it, the ingredients are gone," Mona joked nervously and sneezed. "Are you sick?" asked Arka still coldly. Mona shook her head quickly. "No brother-in-law, Mona is not sick," Mona said in a shaky voice. "You don't have any ingredients for breakfast?" Arka asked Mona again, shaking her head. "Alright, let's go shopping," Arka continued, going back into the room to get the car keys. Arka drove the car at an average speed, her stomach already churning to fill up. Finally, she stopped by a chicken porridge vendor to eat. Mona's eyebrows furrowed when Arka didn't go to the convenience store but she was afraid to ask. "Get off! Let's eat porridge first," Arka exclaimed and stepped away from Mona, the girl immediately got down because she was hungry too. "Two porridge," Arka asked with a nod from the waitress. The waiter served the porridge to the table as soon as it was ready. She looked at Mona's pale face, the girl sneezing occasionally. She offered Mona some warm water, making her look up. "Is Little Sister sick? Her face is so pale, here's some warm water to drink," said the waiter. "Thanks, Uncle, no really." Mona looked down again when she got a sharp look from Arka. After their porridge was finished, Arka paid and rushed to the car to continue their journey. Finally arriving at the market, the man didn't take them to the mini market. Arka had put on a mask and ordered Mona out. "Buy groceries for a month," Arka ordered with Mona's nod, the girl immediately stepped up and chose the groceries then the man paid. and then the man paid. After buying all the ingredients, Arka quickly headed for the car leaving Mona struggling to carry the groceries. Her walk began to sway, the girl's head throbbing with pain. Her legs couldn't hold her weight, she collapsed and Arka turned and ran to see Mona lying unconscious. "Ishhh, you're a pain in the ass," Arka grumbled under her breath and carried her to the car, not forgetting to pick up the groceries. After that, he immediately called the private doctor and told him to go home. She drove the car home, after putting Mona in her room. Arka immediately told Hans, who had just arrived, to check on his sister-in-law. "What's wrong with her, Hans?" asked Arka as soon as Hans finished examining Mona. "She has a fever, this is the medicine Tuan gave her when she woke up. Compresses too so that the heat goes down a bit," said Hans handing over some medicine and he had written down how many times to take. "I take my leave, sir," Hans said with Arka's nod, the man immediately escorted Hans out. Arka quickly went to the kitchen to get some water to compress Mona. Stepping into the room and sitting next to her sister-in-law who was lying down. She painstakingly applied the cloth to Mona's forehead and then picked up her laptop to do some work here, while taking care of the girl. "Eughhhhh," Mona moaned then slowly opened her eyelids, her gaze immediately clashing with Arka's sharp bead. "Brother-in-law, why are we here?" Mona asked in a weak voice. "Then in the parking lot! I left you there, and then I went viral because I left you," Arka's sarcasm left Mona speechless. "Here, take your medicine, it's a pain!" Arka walked away, leaving Mona alone in the room.The sun was strong and the weather was very hot, Mona woke up from sleep. She felt a little better and glanced at the medicine prescription, it turned out that this afternoon she had to take pills to cure the fever. She got up slowly and went to the kitchen to prepare porridge for her, a meal for her brother-in-law."Bismillah," Mona said, getting up from the bed and slowly heading to the kitchen.Mona started cooking with a weak body, she had to do homework because she didn't want to trouble her brother-in-law any more. Carefully preparing the ingredients and then frying, she smiled when everything was done. She slowly made her way to Arka's office because she knew he was busy with his work."Brother-in-law," Mona called in a low voice as she knocked on the door."Come in!" Arka ordered without looking at the open door."Brother-in-law, lunch is ready," Mona said, making Arka glance over and focus on ignoring her sister-in-law's words.Mona stood silently in front of the door, waitin
Three days passed and Mona had finally fully recovered, she immediately cleaned up. Planning to go to school tomorrow, but today she had to do household chores first. Arranging the food on the table, and making coffee as usual. After seeing that everything was in order, she stepped into Arka's room to tell her it was time for breakfast."Brother-in-law, it's time for breakfast," Mona called, knocking on the door."Have you recovered?" asked Arka as she opened the door, surprising Mona and stroking her chest."I'm fine, let's have breakfast, I've made coffee," Mona explained, only to be greeted by Arka's dejection.The man sat down and began to enjoy his breakfast, he looked at Mona who after eating immediately cleaned up again making him raise an eyebrow. "Are you absent from school?" asked Arka without preamble, making Mona stop her work and turn her head to return Arka's sharp gaze."No, Brother-in-Law. Mona wants to go to school tomorrow, now I want to clean up first," Mona replied
All Mona's friends had gone home, the girl went straight to the chores. Preparing dinner, then going into Arka's room to clean up the place. Mona deftly tidied up everything. Exhaling tiredly, she quickly took a shower because Mona was going to rest. Her body was exhausted from group study and cleaning Arka's place."Just take a nap," Mona said after cleaning up, leaving her body wrapped only in a towel.Arka growled angrily when Mona didn't open the door. With a nagging annoyance, Arka stepped into the car to get the spare key. As she entered her room, she remembered that her sister-in-law had been doing group work there. She immediately looked at the closed-circuit television and growled in annoyance when she saw Mona holding hands with one of the boys."This girl needs to be punished so she knows her place," Arka exclaimed and got up to go to the bathroom to clean herself up.After cleaning up, Arka immediately put on her casual clothes. Stepping confidently into Mona's room, she o
Arka got up from her seat and approached Mona, staring intently at the girl. It made Mona's guts that wanted to say more shrink. Pulling her sister-in-law's chin and gripping it to return her gaze"Take a look in the mirror before you say that, Mona! It's okay if you don't do the obligations thrown at you. But replace the money your damn brother brought," Arka scolded and made Mona fall to the floor."You don't know yourself!" Arka snapped and pulled Mona's hand to follow her."Stay here! Think about what you want, whether or not it's appropriate for you to ask me," Arka said, pushing Mona into the shed and the man locked it."Brother-in-law, open it! Don't lock it Mona is scared," Mona shouted banging on the door, she started sobbing in fear.Arka walked away from the warehouse, annoyed at Mona's request. The man preferred to go to his room to rest his body. He was very tired, letting his sister-in-law sleep in the warehouse for the night. "Brother-in-law, please open it! Mona is sc

Arka threw her ass down as soon as she arrived at the office. Exhaling harshly, she quickly works through the piles of paperwork. Two hours pass, the man is still reading and signing the papers. The door to the room opened, revealing the best friend crawling into the secretary's office. Arka looked sarcastically at Reyhan showing off a grin then approached the table."You're so cynical, boss, you haven't satisfied your wife yet! Let's go clubbing with me," Reyhan said, taking a seat on the sofa as he placed the file on the table."You're noisy," Arka growled and grabbed the file to read."Come on, Ka. Have a snack outside once in a while, don't your wife get bored," Reyhan said, not knowing that Arka's wife had run away."Go away! Just disturb me, I have a lot of work to do," said Arka, making Reyhan chuckle."Hahaha, if you change your mind, tell me." Reyhan immediately left."Damn it!" Arka cursed, throwing his pen on the table
Mona's POVMy body ached, especially the sensitive parts. I tried my best to open my eyes and struggled to get up. The pain was getting worse, seeing my body without a single thread. Immediately remembering what happened last night, I couldn't hold back my tears. I could only cry, lamenting that my crown was taken away by my own brother-in-law."I'm dirty...," I muttered between sobs.The sound of the door squeaking made me turn my gaze there. The viewer immediately caught Arka's brother coming out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around his waist. The man gave me a sardonic look, and with a leisurely stride he approached."Listen little bitch! No need to cry, get yourself cleaned up and ready for breakfast. You don't have to go to school or do any homework today. Come with me to go somewhere," she said, making me hurt as the term bitch flew from the lips of the brother-in-law who used to always say polite things."Listen no!" she sna
"What do you want me to buy at the pharmacy?" asked Mona when they reached their destination, she hadn't gotten out of the car when Arka handed her the money."Hormonal contraceptive pills, hurry up!" shouts Arka, causing Mona to pause and get out as Arka pushes her.She slowly approached the pharmacy, standing dreamily as the salesperson asked her what she wanted to buy. Arka growled in annoyance then turned off the car engine and got out to approach the silent sister-in-law. The man looked inquiringly at Mona."Miss, we bought hormonal contraceptive pills," Arka said flatly and got back into the car, followed by Mona who finished paying.Mona looked down as soon as she got in. Squeezing the plastic she was carrying, she didn't dare look at Arka. Arka snorted and then drove the four-wheeled vehicle without paying attention to Mona. After reaching his destination, he parked the car in the parking lot."Let's get off!" Arka ordered Mona to
"My husband!" called Mona as she opened the door to see Arka sleeping on the bed. "He's sleeping, let's put Ghibran to sleep first," Mona muttered softly, closing the door and putting Ghibran in the baby box. She smiled happily when she saw her baby's adorable face. She fondly stroked her son's chubby cheeks. Then, she rushed to the bathroom to clean her body first. The sound of splashing water could be heard, indicating that Mona was cleaning herself. Arka woke up and looked at the bathroom door. He smiled when he heard his wife humming. "It's a habit to always sing in the shower," Arka muttered under her breath, then reached for her phone and grinned as she read a series of messages from Mona. Arka quickly pretended to be still asleep when she saw the bathroom door open. Mona casually took her clothes and put them on in the room. She casually did that because she thought her husband was still sleeping. While Arka opened his eyes slowly to peek at Mona's activities, the man's
"You're too positive about Dara," Arka grumbled, putting down her cell phone and sitting quietly watching the television. Mona continued to chat with her brother. While Gaia occasionally chimed in, she was more focused on the appetizing dishes. Glancing at the clock, Mona hurried to say goodbye to Dinda because she had been out too long. "Sister, it's been too long. I'll take my leave, my husband will keep blabbering if I don't go home now," Mona said to Dinda's understanding nod. "Well, then be careful." Mona nodded in response, they said goodbye and Mona and her son left immediately. "Mom, Dad must be angry. I've been talking to Auntie for so long," Gaia chirped, to which Mona nodded in reply, as she was texting her husband. "How about it, Gaia. I haven't seen your aunt in a long time, so when I do, it's only natural," Mona replies in her defense. [Honey, I'm on my way home,] - Mona "Why did it take so long to reply, I didn't even read it at all," Mona grumbled to herself, w
Finally Kean took the initiative himself, grabbing his phone and asking Google. The smile was clearly engraved when he knew the meaning of the two lines. He immediately put down the phone and hugged his wife, not forgetting to land a peck on the cheek."Sweetheart, you're pregnant," Kean said in a happy tone, to which Aurel nodded back. "Yes, Honey! Soon we will be parents," said Aurel happily, Kean then released the hug. "Then I'll ask permission from the boss, so I can take you to the hospital," said Kean, which made Aurel smile even more. "Then I'll take my leave, you'll have to work hard to get it done," said Aurel, who was immediately given a thumbs up by Kean. "Assalamualaikum," Aurel said and then answered Kean, the woman immediately stepped away. "Sorry, Sister, I lied earlier. So you don't keep fighting," said one of the women who approached Aurel, making her turn her head. Aurel smiled and nodded. "I understand, thank you. Now I want to say goodbye, I want to meet the
Now they had finished shopping. Mona quickly texted her husband. Asking where Arka was, she rushed to where he was when he told her where he was. "Daddy!" Gaia called out, the girl ran as she carried her groceries, she approached her father and kissed Ghibran on the cheek. "Duh, sorry. You took so long to shop," Gaia said, engaging her little brother in conversation which was greeted by Ghibran's smile, making the woman anxious again and kissing the toddler again. "Alright, let's order some food, you must be hungry," Arka said as he glanced at Gaia and his wife. Mona quickly approached and took Ghibran from her husband's arms. She asked Arka to order some food for her, while Gaia chose her own. Dara still stood looking at her friend's small family with envy in her heart. "Why are you there, come and sit down! You choose what food you want. Later my husband will order it, I don't accept rejections," Mona said which was immediately reciprocated by Dara's nod, the woman quickly
Arka immediately stopped the car, then turned to look ahead. She immediately got out of the four-wheeled vehicle, then approached a girl who was sitting on the road in front of their car. She was holding her chest as she moved her mouth but no sound could be heard. "Sorry, you're okay, right?" Arka asked softly, causing the girl to look up and nod. "Where are you going? No one's hurt, right," Arka asked, to which the girl shook her head again. "Dara!" shrieked Mona as she approached her husband who was looking at the woman who had almost been hit. The woman called Mona immediately turned her head. She smiled at the woman she hadn't seen in years. Mona rushed over and gave Ghibran to Arka. "How are you, you're Dara, right," Mona chatted, to which Dara, a girl only four years her junior, nodded in return. "Where are you going?" Mona asked, causing Dara to duck her head. "Hey, what's wrong with you?" Mona asked again, shaking Dara's body. "You can talk on the side of the ro
Aurel woke up from her sleep, the woman blinked and looked at the man who was now her husband. She quickly glanced at Jan and slowly got up. The pain was still there, she hurried to grab her scattered clothes and put them on. Just about to step into the bathroom, a man's hoarse voice made her stop her steps. "Where are you going, why didn't you wake me up," Kean said, getting up from his seat and grabbing his boxers and putting them on. "I'm going to take a shower, darling, and make my ablutions. It's time for the dawn prayer," Aurel replied without turning around to look at her husband. "Then let's take a shower together," chirped Kean and then approached and carried his wife, making Aurel squeal. "Honey! What the heck, just shock me," Aurel protested as she looked away in embarrassment from feeling her husband's broad chest. "Just holding you, I saw you walk like that. It really hurts, doesn't it?" exclaimed Kean as he asked, to which Aurel nodded slowly. "Even though it's
"Alright, now you eat and then we'll go home," Aurel continued, causing Kean to look up and raise an eyebrow. "Home? I still have a lot of work to do, Rel. Better after I finish the food, you just go home yourself," said Kean in reply to Aurel's shaking. "You have to go home, this is an order from Gaia's father," Aurel said, causing Kean to exhale and nod in compliance. "This must be what Gaia said, right?" asked Kean, who was answered by Aurel's nod, who was now preparing food on the table. "Let's eat, remember to finish it all," Aurel ordered, making Kean look at his future wife's face. "Really, Rel, this is a lot," Kean protested, making Aurel chuckle and pinch her future husband's cheek. "I'm kidding, you're really serious," Aurel said with amusement, scooping up the rice and side dishes and thrusting them into Kean's mouth. "Why are you silent, let's open your mouth. Let's feed each other, until this food runs out," said Aurel then smiled a little when Kean opened his
As morning approached, the atmosphere at Kean's parents' home was bustling. Soon they would bury the body of Kean's father. The man was silent without saying much, he didn't make a sound at all and even filled the stomach that hadn't been filled since he came here. Arka was already there, accompanying his friend. "Hey, be strong, Kean. Let's take your father to his new home," Arka said, making Kean turn to look at his friend. "You have to be strong, if you're fragile. Who will strengthen your mother's heart," Arka continued, making Kean pause and nod. *** Time spun quickly, Kean became more quiet. The man didn't daydream much sometimes. It had now been a week since delivering his father to his new home. "Hey! Work properly, don't daydream too much," Arka scolded when he caught his friend in the toilet, the man glanced at Arka. "Sorry, I'll try to be professional here," Kean said, making Arka raise his eyebrows. "Seriously, I'm trying to be professional in the toilet. You w
"Uh, uh, how come you know each other like this," said Kean in surprise while Mona chuckled at the shocked look on the man's face. "We do!" Gaia exclaimed, making Kean grumble because that wasn't the answer he was asking for. "Are you psychic, you know my candidate's name," said Kean once again, making Gaia turn to look at him. "What candidate, Uncle?" asked Gaia as she leaned forward to stare at Kean. "Uh, anu ...." Kean scratched his head that wasn't itchy, the man saw his lover looking at him while raising an eyebrow. "What the hell, uncle ... come on, don't half-ass it," Gaia scolded and was greeted by the man's grimace. "Come on, you know, answer me, don't just tease Gaia," Arka sneered and Kean snorted. "Anu, Gaia. This is my future wife, Uncle. I'm getting married soon," Kean said quietly. "Ohh, so you're getting married, then," Gaia said, nodding her head. "I'm sorry, uncle, Gaia. If I wait for you to grow up, I'll be an old man." Kean said softly, he w
