Counting The Days (6)
Seruni felt her fast heartbeat beside her. Seruni looked at the face of her future mother-in-law who looked young at first. At first, Seruni thought that Mumut was Bima's sister, even though she had only met her few times Seruni really admired Mumut. She was never seen flaunting her husband's wealth either.
Seruni felt so nervous when her future mother-in-law invited her to talk. Mumun didn't ask much about her life but she talked about many things, including work. Seruni felt so embarrassed when Mumut asked her how she felt about Bima and she didn't know what to say, so she just smiled shyly at Mumut.
Seruni felt even more nervous when Mumut held her hands together.
"I do hope that you can love Bima sincerely. Did he force you to marry him?"
Seruni shook her head, smiling at Mumut.
Mumut chuckled looking at Seruni who was trying to protect Bima, because she really protected him.
