"Why are you crying?"
Ronald shook his head, he chewed his food slowly, he forgot when was the last time he felt a mother's love, his younger brother is really lucky to live with the Sanjaya family who love him very much, giving him no less attention than his biological parents.
"Ronald.."
"Y..yes auntie."
"Dear Mama, you are Rey's sister, which means you are also Jelita's sister, and also mama and papa's child."
"Yes Mom,"
"Well then, let's open your mouth again." Before the food reached Ronald's mouth, Rey had grabbed it.
"Hap! Yum..nyam..nyam..ouch!!" His mother's finger had landed nicely on Rey's arm, as a punishment for her actions to snatch her sister's food rations.
"It hurts Mom."
"It's you after all.. Mama fed Ronald instead of you, anyways you already have your own food why did you take your brother's rations."
"Besides, Ronald, ma'am, it's been a long time, Rey just feels sorry for Mama, I'm afraid my hands are sore from holding a spoon, afraid that Mama's gout will return."
"Eh, you just have an excuse, where is gout in the hands, the ones on the back."
"Gout today can be anywhere, ma'am, it's really gout in the days of the ancestors."
"You're really fighting, watch out, you'll take your food ration later."
"That's how it is, my mom likes to yell, then Rey will complain to papa, you know mom."
"Sono is complaining.. you are a papa's child."
"Papaaaa" Rey shouted hysterically, accompanied by a sneer from her mother's lips, while Ronald shook his head with his younger brother's attitude, it turned out that his younger brother was spoiled by his adoptive parents.
"There's duct tape here, isn't it?" Papa said as he looked as if looking for something.
"What do you do with duct tape?"
"To keep your mouth shut and your mommy so it won't be noisy, you guys are a habit, if you meet each other you make fun of each other if you miss each other, papa gets dizzy, I hope you are not as fussy as they are Ronald."
ronald smiled. Rey and her mother pursed their lips at her father's words. once again Ronald was grateful that his sister was still alive, he gave thanks in his heart for being given happiness today. I hope this feeling never ends.
They didn't realize that there had been a pair of ears listening to their conversation, a middle-aged man who had been standing in front of Ronald's luxurious inpatient room door, just by listening to their conversation he already knew that his son had been very happy with his adopted family, and now his eldest son feels the same happiness as his sister. Well.. he is Mr. Handoko. Father of Rey and Ronald.
After a few minutes had passed, Mr. Handoko decided to enter the room in front of him, he slowly opened the door and said hello.
"Assalamualaikum." Suddenly everyone turned their eyes to the door that had just been opened.
"Waalaikumsalam." They answered in unison.
"Mas Handoko." Mr. Sanjaya approached Handoko and hugged him, while Mrs. Sanjaya cupped his hands to his chest, and Mr. Handoko replied with the same thing.
"Father .." Rey went to his father then kissed his hand and hugged his father's old body.
"Let's have breakfast, Mas Han, my wife deliberately cooked a lot and brought it here, to treat the longing of the single child."
"Thank you, I'm sure your wife's cooking is very delicious."
"Come on dad, let's eat." take Rey.
"Okay, Ronald have you eaten?"
"That's still being fed by mom, huh."
"HA! being fed? It's your feet that hurt, not your hands, eat yourself, let Mama Jelita come with breakfast."
"I'm the one who wants to feed Ronald, he also doesn't ask me to feed him, bro, he's still sick, it's a shame to ask him to eat alone."
"But he's already big, Mama Jelita."
"Well, it's a single child, let alone eat, why don't you just sleep, you still like to show your mama and papa."
"Maaaaaa!!!" Rey was hysterical where she thought that her mother would tell her father about it.
"It means you're lying if you say you've grown up little brother." Ronald said again attacking his sister.
"O Allah, strengthen your servant." Rey said pretentiously, and his parents and brother laughed in return.
-------------
"You be careful, I'll pick you up later."
"Yes, Mas Danil also be careful, I'm leaving first, Assalamualaikum."
"Waalaikumsalam, Mr. Sapto be careful with the car."
"Ready Sir."
Jelita climbed into the car driven by Mr. Sapto, during the trip he used to check email and read documents that his assistant had sent. thirty minutes later, the car arrived at his Chandra Corp office.
Jelita got out of the car and walked gracefully into the building, but just as she was about to pass the reception desk, a receptionist came up to her.
"Good morning boo, apologies in advance."
"Morning Renata, what's wrong?"
"That's it, there's a guest in the meeting room."
"Who?"
"Mr Richard Mahendra."
Jelita's brow furrowed upon hearing the name, 'Mas Danil's uncle, what does he want?' he muttered to himself.
"You didn't say your boss was a girl, did you?"
"No ma'am, according to mother's orders to keep mother's identity a secret."
"Good, Has Andi come?"
"It's bang, maybe he's in his room right now."
"Yes, please send him to my room now."
"Yes boo."
"You're welcome."
Jelita continued her steps towards the elevator that would take her to her office. Meanwhile, Renata immediately contacted Andi to wait in Jelita's room. Renata and Andi are Rey and Jelita's confidants, Renata is deliberately assigned to the reception area to screen incoming guests and anyone who can meet Jelita directly.
Jelita opened the door to her room, it turned out that Andi was already waiting in her room with Pak Wahyu, Jelita's personal assistant, saw the presence of Jelita, two adult men who had been sitting on the sofa then stood up and said hello, after a while they made small talk asking how each other was now they had a serious conversation.
"So it's like that, Mr. Andi who will meet Mr. Richard Mahendra accompanied by you, Wahyu."
"Ready bang."
"You pretend to be the CEO of Chandra Corp, I'm sure he wants to persuade me to give up my stake in Danil's company."
"That's for sure, Mr. Richard has wanted to seize the company managed by your husband, we have to be careful with Richard Mahendra, and don't let him control Mr. Danil's company, I know very well how Mr. Danil has worked hard to develop the company when the condition of the company slumped at that time."
"I agree with Pak Wahyu's words, we have to be careful and have a solid plan."
"Yes, so let's carry out a plan to defeat Richard Mahendra, the evil man." said Jelita with her evil grin.
In the end, it was Wahyu and Andilah who would meet Richard Mahendra to trick Danil's uncle. Until whenever, Jelita will not be willing if her husband is oppressed by someone else, she will do anything to save him, that is Jelita's promise to her late mother-in-law, that she will be by Danil's side whether it is difficult or happy and will never leave him.
