2023-12-31 12:58:30Aryan stood by the glass window, lost in thought as he watched the bustling and noisy city that had just awakened from its nighttime slumber. Andra entered Aryan's office, and her presence broke the silence that had enveloped Aryan for the past ten minutes.
"You handle Laura; I'll take care of the campus issue, Aryan," Andra said, interrupting his contemplation.
Andra knew that this was not a trivial matter, as it involved someone's character and attitude, especially since Laura was a scholarship student and a model student at the university.
Earlier, Aryan had dropped Laura off at Andra's house before heading to the office. He couldn't bear to leave Laura alone in her apartment, especially since the incident at the campus had left her mostly silent and tearful. Aryan even had to coax her to eat.
"The photos have already spread to some lecturers; let's hope they don't reach the university council," Andra continued, pondering possible solutions. Even at th

Aryan held Laura tightly, his arms providing a comforting sanctuary for her. He gently wiped away her tears with his thumb, his expression filled with love and understanding."Honey, I'm not going anywhere. We're in this together, no matter what challenges come our way," Aryan reassured Laura with a soft, tender voice. "I meant it when I said I love you, and that includes accepting you, your past, and any mistakes you might have made. What matters most to me is our future together."Laura nodded, her heart feeling lighter with each reassuring word from Aryan. She realized that she had been carrying the weight of her fears and insecurities alone, but now, with Aryan by her side, she could face anything."I promise, from now on, we'll tackle any problems together. No more secrets, okay?" Aryan said, looking into Laura's eyes with sincerity.Laura smiled through her tears and nodded again. "No more secrets."With that promise, they sealed their love w

All night long, Laura couldn't close her eyes due to the anxiety that gripped her as she awaited the new day. It had been three days since she hadn't set foot on campus because of the scandal involving her provocative photos. She wasn't prepared to face the judgmental stares of her friends, and this time, it wasn't just friends from her faculty but the entire campus."Finish your breakfast first," Aryan said when he noticed Laura was merely playing with her food, lacking an appetite. Laura looked at Aryan with a half-hearted smile.Laura observed Aryan approaching her while fixing his hair. If her mood were better, Laura would have chosen to stay home. She couldn't bear the thought of her husband becoming the object of attention for the campus girls. She understood all too well what went on in the minds of women who admired handsome men like them because she was one of them. However, ever since she had fallen in love with Aryan, there was no man more handsome in Laura'

Aryan stared at the large sign displayed in front of the café where his car was parked. He observed Laura, who remained motionless in the passenger seat, lost in her own thoughts and unaware that they had reached their destination.Gently, Aryan caressed Laura's cheek with the back of his hand. He was truly puzzled by Laura's continuous somberness, missing the spirited girl who always challenged him. Laura was startled by Aryan's tender touch and looked at him as he smiled."So, is it a date?" Aryan asked, giving her a playful wink."Let's go!" Laura replied briefly, then opened the car door and stepped out.They chose a spot at the back of the café, specifically the outdoor area, which faced a lush garden with coffee trees and colorful flowers. The sound of a babbling artificial stream made Epic Caffe feel like a natural paradise. It was serene and comfortable, making visitors want to linger and spend their time there.Laura's eyes s

Aryan's eyes widened almost bulging out of their sockets when Laura casually removed her swimsuit and left it carelessly aside. Now, Laura was only wearing her underwear as she playfully pulled Aryan, who was frozen in place, towards the pool."Are you trying to tease me, or what, honey?" Aryan whispered while carrying Laura into the pool. Laura simply laughed and teasingly traced her finger along Aryan's bare chest."Why not? You're my husband, so it's my duty to tease you," Laura teased even more, playfully running her fingers across Aryan's exposed chest with a mischievous smile."Alright, it looks like it could be fun to play here," Aryan whispered as their bodies started to enter the pool.Aryan felt Laura's body tense, and her hands gripped his neck tightly. Laura was panicking with her eyes closed. Aryan knew that Laura had intentionally teased him earlier, attempting to distract herself from her fear of the water. Slowly, Aryan released Laura's le

Aryan parked his car in front of the Coffee Resto where he and Dion had agreed to meet. With a sense of unease still lingering, he walked into the cafe, scanning the surroundings to spot Dion. In the southern corner, he saw a man in a bright blue shirt and black-framed glasses waving at him. Aryan returned Dion's wave and made his way to table number 14, which had a clear view of a large window overlooking the busy street.Dion stood up with a smile, greeted Aryan, and gestured for him to take a seat. He handed Aryan the menu so he could choose his preferred food."What would you like to order, Aryan?" Aryan asked as he browsed through the menu options."Up to you, Aryan. You must still remember our favorite menu, right?" Dion replied with an unreadable grin.This cafe had been Aryan and Dion's regular spot before the conflicts that tore them apart, back when they were involved in a love triangle that fractured their long-standing friendship from high sch

Laura's smile brightened as she opened her eyes to find Aryan's face greeting her. She had chosen to enjoy every moment of happiness with him and had not paid attention to his late-night arrival.This morning, as usual, Laura prepared breakfast for the two of them. She couldn't help but touch her belly, imagining the possibility of carrying their child. Her thoughts were interrupted when she noticed the time on the clock: 7:17 AM, and Aryan had yet to leave their bedroom. Curious, she made her way to their room and found Aryan still comfortably wrapped in his thick blanket.Laura grabbed the remote control for the air conditioner from the nightstand and turned it on. Simultaneously, she drew back the wide silver curtains that covered the glass window, allowing the sunlight to flood the room. The sudden brightness made Aryan reflexively shield his eyes with his hands due to the glare."Aryan, wake up! Aren't you going to the office today?" Laura said while tuggin

Laura's gaze remained fixed on the orchids with purple, white, and yellow hybrid blooms that thrived on the sturdy mango tree in her spacious front yard. Normally, when she looked at these flowers that she had always cared for alongside her younger sister, Nancy, her heart would be filled with joy. But this time, she felt sadness and loneliness. She lifted her head to look up at the golden sunset, which appeared to be marching with the clouds to hold back the tears that were on the verge of falling.What Arabella had said to her earlier had only added to her dilemma. Laura was confused about her feelings for Aryan now. Her lips might say otherwise, but her heart couldn't lie; she was genuinely concerned about Aryan's well-being. "Has Aryan eaten? Where is he now? Does he miss me?" These questions filled her mind."It's getting late, Laura. Come inside," Nancy called out from the doorstep of their house, where she had been observing Laura.Laura quickly wiped her

"Morning, Honey. Don't forget to have breakfast before heading to class. Love you."A faint smile greeted Laura in the morning after reading Aryan's message. She couldn't deny that she missed him. Laura shook her head, trying to push her thoughts of Aryan aside. She had to leave early because she had a class with Bu May, her academic advisor. She had already missed three classes since the scandal of her photos with Noval had spread a week ago. Even though the issue had been resolved, Laura still felt embarrassed about stepping onto campus. Her reputation had been tarnished.Laura quickly grabbed her backpack and slung it over her shoulders as she headed outside. She bid farewell to her parents. Since Laura and Nancy were going to the same direction, they rode together on Laura's old automatic motorbike, which was now owned by Nancy. In Nancy's front yard, she had honked her motorbike horn several times to hurry Laura along."Laura, you took forever; now I'm goin

After the birth of the twins, the life of Aryan and Laura's small family became even more colorful. There was no happiness that could replace it, but behind all that, Aryan became the subject of jokes among relatives and family members due to the fainting incident while accompanying Laura during her recent surgery."Seriously, you're so funny for fainting next to your wife during her surgery. Luckily, Laura didn't go into shock; it could have been fatal," Andre said with laughter as they had just returned home from the hospital."Let it go, Dad, there's no need to talk about it again," Aryan replied with irritation as he guided Laura into the bedroom, while the twins remained calm in the arms of Liana and Della.Laura rested for a while, trying to ease the pain from the incision in her abdomen following the cesarean section surgery, which still greatly affected her movements. Aryan wiped the sweat from Laura's forehead with a tissue and gently kissed her.

Seven months later…Laura and Aryan were now in the final trimester of her pregnancy. It wouldn't be long before she would give birth to their twin babies, a boy and a girl, according to the ultrasound results. Laura's pregnancy had been progressing smoothly, even though she had experienced morning sickness for two months.She managed to meet all of Dr. Rahma's recommended nutritional requirements. Despite occasional morning sickness and vomiting in the morning, Laura's appetite had increased with her advancing pregnancy. It wasn't surprising that her weight had increased by 30 kg. Dr. Rahma estimated that each baby weighed around 3 kg, so Laura was advised to follow a diet while waiting for the delivery.For the past two months, Laura and Aryan had moved to a ground-floor room, using the living room as their bedroom because Laura wasn't allowed to go up and down the stairs. When Aryan was at the office, Liana, his mother, would be on standby, and Bi Ana an

Aryan's overprotective attitude made Laura both happy and annoyed. She was ecstatic because she felt deeply loved, but at the same time, she was frustrated by Aryan's constant restrictions. Like tonight, Aryan didn't allow her to do anything except go to the bathroom. He prepared a glass of water for her medication along with the prenatal milk they had bought at the mini-market. And, of course, he always accompanied her to the bathroom every time."Thank you, Honey, for all the happiness you've given me. I promise to be the best husband and father for you and our children," Aryan whispered while hugging Laura from behind. He nuzzled his face into the curve of Laura's neck, his right hand gently caressing her still-flat stomach."You're welcome, and thank you for all your love," Laura replied while stroking the back of Aryan's hand, which was wrapped around her belly. Laura couldn't believe that after all the pain she had endured, God had given her a perfect husband and

Slowly, Laura's eyelids opened for the second time, and now it was the peaceful face of Aryan that greeted her. Laura gazed at the handsome man's face in front of her for quite some time. He was the source of her love and greatest strength up to this point. Not satisfied with admiring her husband's handsome face, a sudden sense of curiosity began to disturb her. She glanced at the wall clock, which had stopped at exactly 4 in the early morning. Without much thought, she pulled open the drawer next to her bed, carefully retrieved a pregnancy test from inside it, and entered the bathroom without making a sound that could wake Aryan.Laura's heart pounded loudly as she looked at the pregnancy test that she had dipped into a small container containing her urine. She lifted the test stick slowly with trembling hands, and there it was... two red lines she had been waiting for appeared. It was crystal clear.

Laura's proposal seminar went smoothly with an A grade, which made her more enthusiastic as she entered the final semester of her college. She only needed to complete the data from her research that she had already conducted. Anton, as her thesis advisor, was now more flexible with all of his supervised students, even though he had a busy schedule as a professor and head of the university's research center. Everything was scheduled, from the day, time, and location of the advisory sessions. If he had any sudden commitments, he would reschedule them at another time, ensuring that all his students for the year progressed smoothly, including leading up to their thesis defense in two weeks."Look at that belly, just like a balloon, Ara," Laura pointed out as she walked with Arabella towards the faculty cafeteria after their last thesis advisory session before the upcoming defense in two weeks."Yeah, it's like a balloon.

They experimented with various recipes from both Indonesia and other countries. Aryan no longer worked late into the night at the office, and if there were urgent tasks, he entrusted them to his personal assistant, Jefri. On Sundays, he spent quality time with his family at home or went out with Laura. Trying out new recipes was something Aryan looked forward to every day because his wife's cooking experiments never disappointed.Finally, the plan to cook together with Laura's friends could be realized.

One week after the surgery, Laura had already started to resume her usual activities. During that week, Aryan had been constantly by Laura's side, handling all his office matters while Andra and Jefri took care of them. Even if there were documents requiring his signature, Jefri would bring them home, allowing Aryan to stay close to Laura and attend to her. Aryan could still manage to check on Jefri's work and reply to emails from his colleagues at home.He did all of this solely for Laura's recovery. Laura often urged him to go to the office, but Aryan refused to budge. He wanted to focus on taking care of Laura until she was completely healed. Arabella and Aurora, as their best friends, always provided their support. Additionally, Nancy and Ricard came to the house to deliver Laura's favorite dishes, prepared by her mother, Della.

The long-awaited day finally arrived, the day when Laura was to undergo surgery to remove the cyst in her abdomen. All the preparations for the surgery were in place, and there were only 30 minutes left before Laura would be taken into the operating room. Feelings of relief and worry dominated everyone's thoughts, but they all had to hide those emotions behind smiles to show support for Laura."Aryan, where's Mom?" Laura asked anxiously, looking at the clock on the white-walled room. In five minutes, she would be moved to the operating table, but Aryan had not been seen since he left briefly to go to the bathroom.Liana was nervous, but before she could answer Laura's question, two male and female nurses entered to take Laura to the operating room. Everyone held back their tears as Laura smiled at them, trying to show that she was strong and brave.

Aryan could only gently pat Laura's trembling shoulder. He was confused about how to calm his wife. Since returning from the hospital the previous night, Laura had been silent in her room. Aryan had been shocked by the results of Dr. Rahma's explanation that Laura had been diagnosed with an ovarian cyst. This was the reason for Laura's recent abdominal and hip pain, as well as her occasional fever and nighttime vomiting. What pained Aryan even more was that he had been unaware of Laura's illness. Regret. That was the feeling weighing heavily on Aryan's chest now. He felt like he wanted to pound his own chest in frustration. His heart shattered as he looked at Laura's sad state, a promise to never make her cry that he had now broken."I'll get you breakfast first," Aryan said softly as he kissed the top of Laura's head before leaving the room.Aryan walked to the dining room with a heavy heart.
