The day changed, my mother and father-in-law invited me to come to a wedding anniversary of one of their families this afternoon, me and Audrey wearing matching clothes, we were both wearing maroon shirts, I was in a black knee-length skirt, while Audrey was in her jeans.
Arriving at the venue Audrey and I got out of the car, we were greeted by the Tajima family, this is the home of my mother-in-law's parents.
We both bowed as courtesy to those who were of a higher degree than the two of us.
"The granddaughter-in-law of your family is very beautiful Hana, it's not wrong Audrey chose it." said an old woman, his age is about² 80 years.
"Blevin, this is Audrey's grandmother, she's my mother's sister, she's 89, at your wedding she wasn't there because conditions weren't possible." explained my mother-in-law.
"Audrey, come with Juno's father and uncle." My father-in-law called Audrey and died with my mother.
"Blevin, sit down and enjoy your tea, oh yes this is Dahlia and her children." mom introduced me to the rest of the family.
"Dahlia is the granddaughter-in-law of Tagashi's grandmother, she is Indonesian as well, and she already has 5 children, as her husband is the only child of Tagashi's descendant, so in order to pass on the offspring he must have many heirs." said mother, I'm a little bit hit here, mother did not tell me to have many children right?
"Blevin, do you want to hold my son?" ask Dahlia who is now beside me.
"Can?"
"Of course, he is also your nephew, oh yes... So all this time what is your busy life, it has been 7 months married, do you guys not plan to have a successor?" dahlia asked, I just smiled.
"Oh.. It looks like you and Audrey are enjoying a courtship first, but you also need to know Blevin, Audrey is 30 now, and the family must really want a grandchild right?"
"Oh yeah.. Maybe later we'll think about it." break me up, I hold a 4-day-old baby in my hand, it's really amazing, was I born this soft?
The answer is, maybe I'm not like him, mom and dad are busy with Bella who has gastrointestinal abnormalities at birth.
"Blevin, you're fit to hold your own baby." That's my father-in-law, he came with his tennis equipment.
I just smiled and now we're moving places, we're Dania's aunt, mother, me, Tagashi's grandmother, Dahlia and Dahlia's children sit in the backyard with a view of Audrey and Taoko playing tennis, while the parents watch in the corner of the court.
"Your husband has always been a winner in tennis, even though he hates tennis" said Tagashi's grandmother.
"Why grandma?" ask me.
"He hates tennis but he's always the winner, because he always hangs out with tennis, he always tries even though he hates it, she is indeed a different person both in terms of thought or treatment." explained grandma Tagashi, I just nodded resignedly now.
It was late, after dinner everyone went into their rooms, me and Audrey were the same, we stayed here last night, because this house is far from the city anyway tomorrow is a holiday, so we decided to stay overnight.
tock...
I opened the door turned out to be Tajima's grandmother's maid who came.
"Sorry madam, I interrupted your evening, but grandma ordered to deliver herbal tea for you and Mr. Audrey."
I just smiled and picked up the tray containing the two cups of herbal tea that he had mentioned earlier.
"Thank you." I said, the waiter came out and I closed the door, Audrey just came out of the bathroom to change her clothes.
"Drink, it's common in the mother's family tradition, it's kind of a youthful tonic." And Audrey took the glass from the tray I was holding, she immediately finished it and headed to the bed to sleep.
I also without hesitation finished another glass, then fell asleep next to Audrey.
The clock showed me at half-twelve in the evening, I began to fidget the same feeling as the crazy medicine that my father gave me reacted to my body, the difference is, now my body feels light and not dusty.
I saw Audrey, who also looked riled up, taking off her pajamas.
I turned my face to my left side so as not to see Audrey now, Audrey hugged me from behind, I felt Audrey's warm arms touching the skin of my arms, what's wrong with her?
"Audrey??? what's wrong with you?" my great-grandson.
"Do you feel it?" tanyakanya.
"What?"
"There's something hard down there, Blevin if I want you tonight how is it?" abugn.
"Audrey, you promised to be my friend, didn't you? friends can't hurt each other."
"We need each other now Blevin, we won't hurt anyone."
"We're going to hurt the results of our actions Audrey, sober up."
Audrey silenced my mouth, I don't know if I can just give up now, my angry feelings can't come out now, god what should I do?
In the morning, my whole body felt very sore, my bones seemed to fall from my body, I saw Audrey still curled up with a thick blanket that wrapped our bodies.
I gulped my saliva, I know what happened last night is normal, but we don't love each other, how can we both be responsible for this?
Trudgingly I stepped towards the bathroom, after finishing and getting dressed I woke Audrey up.
"Wake up." I'm sure. Audrey got up and looked at me, without asking much she went into the bathroom, while I was busy changing the bedsheets.
How could I not wash the scars of our debate last night.
We both went downstairs to breakfast despite being missed, Audrey and I both kept quiet, only mom reprimanded me.
"Blevin, did you wash the bed linen in your room? indeed why? was it changed yesterday?"
Audrey answered quickly.
"I spilled the tea between the maids last night" Audrey replied firmly.
"Would ya??? unfortunately even though tea is very expensive and good in consumption for both of you, grandma believes that tea is very good to improve fertility and harmony of both of you households."
What the hell is this grandma really honest right now, it's been proven we lost with that tea last night.
