The Simpang Jalan
Chapter 51

Kia was still drifting in her thoughts, hearing her phone ring again, Kia opened the message.

*Sorry new mommy tidings, I want to have a mother's birthday event at the place of choice of mother, but this year the same event both your parents on the next day, yes, mom wants to be on her birthday, mom only with her family. The problem of both your parents can you just talk.

Reading a message from her in-laws as soon as Kia's knee went limp. How could her in-laws' birthday show not invite her parents?

"Have the hope that it hasn't been his phone?" whining Rachel.

Kia tried to smile. "Don't you love, oh, what if we disturb Aunty Luna at the oma house?"

"Again bun, I miss oma too."

Without a second thought, Kia immediately invited Rachel to visit her parents. Once there, as usual, they were welcomed and entertained like princesses. Rachel's arrival at the house makes Fuza very happy.

"Why where's mah?" Kia tried the pleasantries.

"Your father hasn't come home yet."

Kia threw her weight on the faithful soft sofa in the living room. Seeing how Kia's face was, anyone could catch that beautiful woman had a problem.

"What's up Kia? If you like here the same story mom," said Fuza.

"At least Davi didn't come home!" luna ketus.

"It's not Davi, it's Mom."

"Why your in-laws, son?"

"I've booked a hotel for a small event mother, as usual attended by close family. But mom also had an event on the same day as the same guest" Kia lamented.

"Catalin a kakatan pesenan Brother!" luna.

"No good Luna, got the cancellation the inner pressure tau, Brother was once in that position. So you don't want to do that to anyone else."

"If so, the guest changed with the children of the home how?" fuza proposal.

"I don't want to have to be at the mother's event, how can I stay there for the Children's Home?" lamented Kia.

"You have a mom, you have a dad, and you have a sister, a show at your place of choice let us take care of it, you focus the show there."

"But-"

"The best mama's capsule, sister, it's already," sambar Luna. "I'd rather have a birthday without the rese, I agree with your mother's idea anyway!

"Are you sure you want to take care of the show without me?" Kia make sure.

"The really use even sister, Brother just rent the hotel add a few rooms, rent so you can play from the morning, the hotel there will be a swimming pool, and there will be a, well so the orphanage children had fun first there, the night of the prayer for the in-laws Brother to die quickly!"

"Luna!" Kia and her mother both rebuked Luna.

"I'm sorry, I mean this prayer for happiness, Ingrid is."

"Kok I was hesitant to believe Luna, ma?"

"There is a mother who helps, later the affairs of our orphanage children also take care of."

Kia's eyes glazed over seeing her mother's sincerity. He hated himself so much, had to lie so that there was no estrangement between his family and Davi's family. Even he used that excuse, so that his family would not realize that Ingrid had not invited them.

Sorry Kia, Kia was forced to lie to keep our feelings all, screamed her heart.

Sesampai di kediamannya makan malam sudah tertata rapi di meja makan. Para pelayan yang bekerja membantu bi Sarah memberi senyuman pada Kia.

"Tumben this time go home first Mr," said Bi Sarah.

"Owh is Rachel's dad home?"

"You must've had dinner at the oma's, right?" Davi walked casually down the stairs.

"Dad ...." Rachel ran straight for Davi. "We haven't eaten Father yet, said the mother last night to have dinner with me."

"Yes?"

"Yes Dad, let's eat together. Rachel's hungry."

The happiness that had weakened was as if back. The warmth and togetherness at the dining table were like snow that cooled the household back down. Finished enjoying her dinner, Kia began to tell her mother's plans.

"I don't feel good to cancel my order mas, very sad if suddenly there is a cancellation, lucky there is a mother who is ready to help for the event there."

"I agree with your idea, but it's not good for them, we're having fun elsewhere, but your family's taking care of another show." Davi threw rough his breath.

"I told you that, too, but my mom wanted to."

"Yq already, we go through the show like you put together and follow mom's show."

Flashbacks

After hearing Fanny Ingrid's complaint immediately came to Fanny to her apartment, she tried to win Fanny who continued to cry because she felt humiliated by Kia.

"Honey, this is not how, he humiliates you, return is not a cry gini."

"I have no way to shame him tan ...."

"At aunt's birthday soon, what's the shame?"

"How about if aunty comes with you outside the country, when the aunt show is not there, surely Kia is ashamed of the guests!" idea Ingrid.

Fanny wiped her tears. "Aunty's birthday is still like old times?"

Ingrid's face immediately sourly imagined the moment of his birthday in every year. "Yes, so there is no luxury, until aunty does not dare to invite aunty's arisan friend. The show was no different, just held in a different place."

"Have you booked tan's place?"

"Davi's got a story, that Kia booked a place at her friend's hotel. Yeah, maybe order some tables ...."

"We embarrassed him by cancelling the order!" fanny's Idea.

"Make him ashamed of Davi's friend okay, but what's the reason? If aunty is here, she can't cancel her order" Ingrid complained.

"I have a party for aunty, a dream party for aunty."

Ingrid's eyes sparkled at Fanny's words. "What does aunt hear this is real? Not a dream."

"It's aunty, but aunty says Davi's aunty's friend."

"You're really a aunt's dream daughter-in-law." Ingrid pulled Fanny into his arms.

"One more aunt."

"What dear?"

"Make Kia's parents not present there, keep crying because besan aunty does not come on a happy aunt's day."

"Tante loves your idea and passion baby!"

Ingrid immediately contacts Davi, asking Davi to talk to Kia to cancel the event that Kia prepared for her, because she has her own event. Davi objected, but Ingrid kept his plan. Davi had to agree.

"Yes ma'am, mother's birthday this year will go as you want. I want to call Kia first to tell her what she wants."

After the call with Davi ended, Ingrid and Fanny again hugged, they were very sure this time the event was successful to make Kia embarrassed.
