Future in-laws?

This morning Mama Jelita seemed busy in the kitchen, with enthusiasm she deliberately cooked all the food for breakfast alone without wanting to be helped by her household assistant, it was an open secret among the household assistants in the big house whose master was Mr. and Mrs. Sanjaya if the mistress Big always prepares breakfast for her husband and children without the help of a housekeeper. Indeed, Mrs. Sanjaya is a true housewife and a true family lover.

However, this time, Mrs. Sanjaya did not cook for her husband or for their single child, but specially cooked for Ronald who was in therapy. The mother wants her second adopted child to be more enthusiastic about undergoing therapy with the love and attention that she and her husband give. After all, Ronald was Rey's older brother, so that meant he was also the adopted son of the two of them.

And Ronald has been taking it easy and always enjoying the attention of his adoptive brother's family. Well, that's the most effective medicine for heartbreak, if in a song my grandmother is my hero, for Ronald, my adopted mother is my hero, ciyyeeee.... Ronald really enjoys his role as a pampered child, as well as a mischievous brother for his younger brother.

Back to the Mama who was cooking, the spacious kitchen and equipped with complete and modern cooking utensils, the leha the maid who was chattering more than a parrot suddenly came from the living room with a shrill voice and ran in a hurry, having seen an angel came down from the rainbow he said.

"Madam... Madam...!!"

Mrs. Sanjaya who was called suddenly turned to the source of the voice while shaking her head. upset because the cooking show was interrupted by the super chatty assistant, fortunately, he was diligent and kind, so he didn't get fired by the madam.

"What's wrong, Leha?! Don't bother, you know, your voice is shrill like a mosque toa, you know?!"

"The madam in front is ..." Leha's words were interrupted because she was busy trying to catch her breath, which was gasping for air from a useless run.

"What's wrong? Ha!! There's a demon? a ghost??" Said Mama Jelita who was curious because Juleha was still loyal, waving her hands in front of her face while shaking her head.

"So what?"

"That's... there's a girl..."

"Girl?"

"Yes, Nyah, very beautiful, look for Mas Rey."

"Rey?!"

"Yes, Nya.."

"Obviously someone is looking for Rey, a girl too." Mama Jelita immediately turned off the stove beside her then walked to the terrace, followed by Leha behind her.

"Hello, Auntie..." I was Artila when I saw the figure of a middle-aged woman who still looked beautiful even though she was no longer young.

"Hello, who are you looking for?"

"Sorry auntie, is this really Reynal's residence?"

"Yes, that's right... I'm his mother? You must be Reynald's girlfriend, indeed he's a really bad boy, he's always wanted to introduce a girl but why doesn't it keep happening, eh, now the girl came alone, or maybe Rey did something with you ?"

"Oh, no auntie, it's not like that, it was last night..."

"Last night? What were you doing last night?"

"It's not like that, Auntie, we don't ..." Artila had not yet had time to finish her sentence, when she saw Mama Jelita standing and staring at a car that had entered the courtyard of the big house, and Artila still remembered the license plate of the car, and it was true that it was Rey who came out from the inside. car.

Rey approached her mother and kissed the woman's hands and both cheeks and then swayed spoiledly by resting her head on the shoulder of the woman who had raised her, her hands hugging the middle-aged woman's body from the side, and inviting her to enter the terrace without realizing that there were foreign eyes watching her behavior.

"Rey, aren't you ashamed? You're still spoiling your mother even though you already have a boyfriend."

Rey stopped her steps, her mother was forced to also stop walking because her body was still under Reynald's control.

"Girlfriend?" Rey asked, frowning.

"Yes, boyfriend, you see..." said Mama Jelita while pointing at the figure of a beautiful girl with long hair standing on the terrace waiting for them.

'Is he? God, what is that girl doing here?' Rey mumbled to herself.

"Come on, let's go find him first, I'll make you a drink first."

Rey nodded, then Mama Jelita walked first into the house, but instead of making a drink she shouted incoherently for her husband.

"Leha, make a drink for the prospective son-in-law and the single child, hurry up. Papa... papa!! Hurry down, there is a prospective in-law in front of you.!"

Rey choked, what did her mother just say? Candidate-in-law? Geez, Rey took a deep breath, then motioned for Artila to sit down. Rey sat some distance from Artila, it was a habit for him, when with a woman who was not part of his family, he would distance himself from her, especially when Reynald's first impression of her was very bad.

"How do you know my home address?"

"From your license plate."

"Oh, so you tracked me down."

"I'm sorry, that's the only way to find you."

"Why did you have to find me?"

"Because, I have to return your jacket, and be in charge of your car."

"I told you it wasn't necessary."

"But it's necessary for me Rey."

"Wow, what else do you know about me?"

"Nothing, unless you are the son of Mr. Sanjaya, that's all."

"You're just like a cop."

Artila smiled, not long after Leha delivered hot tea for both of them.

"Please drink, Mr. Rey."

"Thanks, Leah..."

"You're welcome, Mr. Rey." Leha went back into the house leaving the two people on the terrace.

"Please drink Miss .." Rey said while frowning looking at Artila.

"Artila.. Artila Dimitri."

"Drink please, Miss Artila Dimitri." Rey said politely, making Artila even more amazed by Rey's personality.

"Thanks, just call Artila."

"Okay."

"So what do you want Artila?"

"I'd like to return your jacket, and let me pay for your car repair."

"Actually it's not necessary, I even told you last night."

"But it's my fault."

"It was an accident, after all I was wrong too, because I was driving in the fast lane at a substandard speed."

"That's not wrong, because last night the road was very quiet, so it's okay for you to slow down, because maybe you are also in a tired condition."

"That also applies to you, because you're drunk and it's already very late, so it's natural for you to drive at high speed because the road conditions are empty."

"You're good at breaking my words."

"Hahahaha... That's reality isn't it?"

Artila nodded. how attractive this man in front of him.

"Let's just say, let's consider the problem solved, for my car, let the insurance take care of it later, so you don't need any compensation. How about it?"

"Okay then, but at least you'd like to have dinner with me sometime, as an atonement for my guilt."

"Okay, I'll let you know later, when I have free time, because lately, I have to take turns with my mother, to accompany my sister in the hospital."

"Oh, no problem, here's my business card." Artila took a card out of her purse and handed it to Reynald.

Rey accepted the card that was handed to Artila, and put it in her purse.

"Okay, I'll excuse myself, I have to go to the office immediately." Artila said as she got up from her seat, and reached out her hand to invite Rey to shake hands, but Rey only cupped her hands in front of her chest. it honestly took Artila by surprise. Once again, Artila's admiration increased many times over the figure of Reynald she had just met.

"Nice to meet you again Artila."

"Oh, yes... then I'll excuse myself."

"Please."

Artila stepped off the terrace to her car which was parked outside the fence of the Sanjaya family's house.

"Rey, where's your future mother-in-law?"

"Prospective In-laws?"
