As he promised his mother, Malik rushed home to the mansion after finishing cleaning up the items that needed to be brought. The man decided to only bring Rihanna's belongings because his personal belongings were also still stored in the main mansion.
Malik pulls a large suitcase containing his wife's clothes into the mansion. Once he arrived at that place, Riani had already confronted the son in the living room.
"Malik, barbarity! Mommy needs to talk."
"Let's go, Mi. Malik wants to put this suitcase in the room first" Malik replied as he continued walking.
"Rihanna's resting. Don't bother her!"
A strong warning from his mother finally made Malik stop his steps. The man turned around and walked towards the living room sofa, where the mother was sitting with a magazine in her hand.
Malik sat himself on the sofa and left Rihanna's suitcase lying next to him. The man looked at his mother questioningly. What other problems will the mother talk to her.
"What do you want to talk to?"
"Mommy just wants to make sure. Is it true that mommy's guess that you've been separated from your bed?" riani asked directly at the core of the matter.
Malik slightly lowered his head in shame when the mother found out about the condition of her household which was far from harmonious. Although she once told her mother about their feelings, Malik still felt very strange when a newlywed couple slept in a separate room.
"Answer, Malik!" exclaimed the mother as she threw the magazine in her hand onto the table.
"Yes, Mama. From the beginning we slept alone. Malik did not want to force Kayla to serve her obligations as Malik's wife" the man said.
"That's your own availability or a request from your wife?"
"Before the wedding took place, Malik once made a letter of agreement with Kayla, Mam. In the letter Malik wrote that we will continue to live our lives. But that first night made Malik unable to keep the promise that Malik had given to Kayla" Malik said regretfully.
Hearing the reason expressed by the son made Riani's heart melt. Guilt is suddenly present. Only because of his ignorance did the son break the promise. However, is not husband and wife is indeed reasonable to do these activities.
"Mommy's sorry, Malik. Mami thought that way it would bring you closer. Mami never thought if your relationship got worse after that incident," regretted Riani felt guilty.
"Already, Mi. No need to talk about that anymore. Now even Malik wants to thank mami," he said as he looked at the mother's sad face.
"Thank you for what, Malik?"
"If it wasn't for my mother's vanity, it wouldn't have grown a junior Malik in Kayla's womb. Hopefully with the presence of a little angel in our lives, will foster a sense of love between us," said Malik hopeful.
"Aamiin, I hope your household will improve. But, Malik, the mother had overheard Rihanna's complaint in the room."
Malik leaned his body to further erode the distance between him and his mother. He wondered what his wife was complaining about. Was the same thing as the time in the dream that night.
"Kayla complains about what, Mam?"
Riani put on her serious face, the middle-aged woman also leaned her body exactly as Malik did. "Sammar mami listen, he is afraid to fall in love with you," said Riani in a very low tone.
Malik grumbled in annoyance as he walked towards his room. His right hand pulled the wife's suitcase. Instead of being happy, Malik's mood actually worsened after hearing the mother's speech that he believed was just a joke. Rihanna cannot say that. His heart was still attached to Danendra, a married man.
"I know, it's just mama's wits to fuck me up. There's no way Kayla's afraid of falling in love with me. All this time he had never even glanced at me at all," his grunts all the way to the room.
Not wanting to rush into the room that is currently occupied by his wife, Malik also knocked on the door. Not long after that the door opened. Rihanna stood up with her face still slightly pale.
"I'm intruding, huh?"
"No, Malik."
"This is your suitcase, Kayla. Excuse me first" said Malik after handing over the wife's suitcase.
The dashing man who was in front of his wife more often bowed began to swing his steps to immediately go from the presence of the wife. Malik did not want to disturb his wife's rest. However, his wrist was restrained by Rihanna's smooth hand.
Malik stared at her wrist held back by Rihanna so the pregnant woman reflexively stared in the same direction. Rihanna immediately let go of her already presumptuous hand holding her husband for thinking the man did not like it when she touched him.
"Sorry" Rihanna said as she stepped back to keep her distance from Malik.
"It's okay. Do you need anything?"
"T-no. But where are you going?"
"I need a minute. You just rest. I won't bother you" said Malik, who immediately made Rihanna moody.
"All right."
Not wanting Malik to know his current feelings, Rihanna rushed into the room. The pregnant woman rested her back on the door leaf while holding her still flat stomach.
"Sorry, Son. Looks like your dad's busy. Let's try it next time, Dad!"
Actually Rihanna had wanted to hold Malik because she suddenly felt like her husband's status was stroking her belly. However, he had not been able to express his wishes, the husband had already refused. Rihanna is aware, maybe Malik has other activities out there too.
If all this time Rihanna always thought of Danendra, for some reason now it's like always wanting to be close to Malik. Whether it happens because of her pregnancy hormones or indeed the fetus in her womb does want more attention from the seed sower.
Meanwhile, Malik has not left. He was still faithfully standing at the front door of the room. The man stared at the door of his room, which may never belong to him again because it had been taken over by Rihanna.
"Kayla, how long will our relationship be this cold?" malik muttered involuntarily dripping tears from next to the corner of his eagle eye.
What happened to Malik and Rihanna was simply a lack of good communication between the couple. They are equally concerned with their own feelings and ego. If they want to open up a little, maybe love will not be difficult to grow in the heart of the woman.
Rihanna's heart is actually empty. There was only a disturbance caused by Danendra's repeated refusal. Not to mention the problem of the father who until now has not found a bright spot. Rihanna thinks her father may be out of enemy hands. Meanwhile, his relationship with his mother did not improve either. Rihanna feels that she prefers and loves Adeline more after decades apart.
"If only you were him, Kayla. Maybe you'll have an easier time opening your heart to me" he murmured as he reached into something in his pants pocket.
