The journey to the hospital goes smoothly without any hitches. In fact, according to Thomas, it's like an impromptu tour because they pass by many important places around the resort area. The distance to other residential areas is quite far and it really feels peaceful.
"If you can walk around, it's nice to visit the traditional houses of Sumba. There are often traditional events to attract tourists."
Olive sighs softly. "I'm still not brave enough, Sir." Her eyes are directed towards the road the car is taking her to the hospital. "Who knows, I might be feeling better tomorrow."
"Yeah. Don't worry, Ma'am, your health is more important. Visiting Sumba can be done another time," says the guide with a wide smile. "But do you and Sir enjoy staying at the resort? Or is there any service of ours that is lacking?"
"No!" Olive quickly interrupts. "Everything's really great. I love it. I'll recommend this place to my friends at the office. For a healing that ulti
The trip back was just as painful for Olive's entire body. The gynecologist, who they met two days ago, didn't mind if they took the plane because Olive's condition really didn't have any complaints. The nausea that hit her yesterday was due to a cold.The doctor has given appropriate and safe medicine for mothers with a pregnancy that is still two weeks old.Fortunately... oh my God! I don't know what Thomas should be thankful for this time. Upon returning from the hospital after hearing some advice about pregnancy (Remind Thomas to look for a hospital where he can comfortably consult. It's nothing, it can be said that this doctor in Sumba is just a stopover, right? Just to find out how Olive's pregnancy is really going. There were many things Thomas wanted to know, but didn't feel like asking Doctor Edward. His name.) Olive's indulgence really made Thomas shake his head.He didn't.He wasn't angry at all but felt silly because of Olive's expressions tha
"Mommy talks like I'm really annoying to be a wife?" asked Olive as she straightened her back slightly."You didn't sleep?" asked Thomas in surprise. Since they got in the car, they stopped by a Padang restaurant around Serpong where Olive ate with great enthusiasm. She even ate twice! Thomas was worried that Olive might regurgitate her stomach contents.But no!Olive was actually very happy to be able to eat a lot. Making Thomas and Seira relieved. As they continued their journey back to the apartment (Seira said, everyone was gathered there. Including Olive's friends. Which Seira empowered to help her in-laws prepare the dinner this time)"No." Olive sneered at her husband. "I heard everything, Bae."Thomas chose to pay attention to Olive instead. His seat was made comfortable by a chair that was set slightly reclined. "Want some fruit? Mummy brought grapes.""My stomach is not a food storage sack, honey," Olive said, wagging her finger. "
Seira sighed softly. His hand put back the cell phone that had just connected with Robert. She wanted to be angry but couldn't because everything that happened was not his fault. The delay in flying was due to the extreme weather conditions around Australian waters which were an obstacle."Ma'am," called one of Sofia's confidants who brought a change of clothes. "Your therapist is waiting for you in the next room."She only responds with a faint smile. She left the clothes hanging in one corner of her room. As long as Robert wasn't around, she would stay in this apartment. She was free to use whatever was available, including the main room. Even so, Seira always maintained her privacy. Rarely were other people allowed in unless it was important.[Robert: You take it easy. I arrived in Jakarta at about midnight. The event is at 9 o'clock, right?"]Seira stared without interest at the message that had just appeared on her phone's homepage. It wasn't that sh
"Taking forever, huh?" Seira sighs softly. But it seems Seira's wait ends when the doorbell rings quite loudly. It makes her put down the cup of tea that Koni made before she went to sleep. Koni has reminded Seira several times to rest for a while. But unfortunately, talking to Seira in this state won't be listened to."Ro?" Seira calls out cheerfully as she opens the door but..."For Madam from Mister," says Johan, showing a large bouquet of flowers made of... money?Seira's eyes dart back and forth between the bouquet and Johan who came alone without Robert. She can't just accept it without knowing where Robert actually is."Where's Sir?" she asks, confused. "You were on the same flight with Sir, right? What happened to Robert?" Seira presses without pause. She doesn't care much about the money bouquet that two people have to hold so it won't fall. She also ignores when Johan asks the two to bring in the bouquet dominated by elegant and classy red and b
Since earlier, Olive's smile doesn't want to go anywhere. Her mother's wedding is held solemnly and very intimate. The guests attending aren't too many either. Most of them seem familiar with her mother and her stepfather. The joyful glow on their faces creates a whole different energy around them.She never thought there would be a day when she would see her mother's beauty multiply several times. She also sees the man who never strays far from her mother giving glances. Maybe Olive has long been convinced that he is the right man whom God gave to be in her mother's life.Unfortunately... she doesn't know why her mother took so long to decide for them to be together."Daydreaming, Bee?" Thomas asks, handing her a bottle of mineral water. "Don't forget to drink." He also immediately opens his bottle where Olive smiles widely to welcome her drink. The almost empty bottle signals that his wife is indeed thirsty."Tired?" Thomas asks softly while handing her
"Delicious or super delicious, Sir," Darius quickly responds. "Olive's taste buds don't know the word 'not delicious'. Everything is delicious to her. That's why inviting Olive to eat is the most fun. Not much comment. Before you know it, her plate is empty."Thomas chuckles. What Darius said is true, isn't it? It's rare to hear Olive comment on the taste of food that's already been ordered. Instead, she says it's a shame if it's not finished. A waste. It's a sin to waste food, she says. Better to go into her stomach.The problem is, no matter how much Olive eats, her body doesn't widen sideways. She remains slim and unchanged. When Thomas first met Olive, his wife rarely exercised. Thomas is confused, huh."Shut up!" Olive glares, not pleased. "Instead of worrying about my appetite, you better tell me what you've tried at the food booths over there. What's good?""If you like Zuppa Soup, I think it's good," Riana quickly says, pointing to the place on th
Robert's departure back to Sydney couldn't be postponed. Besides having many projects that needed to be completed urgently, the man also prepared a special trip for himself and Seira."Nothing left behind, right?" Robert double-checked before they headed to the car Johan had prepared."Nah, I don't think so," Seira replied softly, but her eyes glanced again at the two large suitcases already at the apartment door. Her mind smoothly recalled the contents of the suitcases and what needed to be brought. "I'm pretty sure not," she said with a faint smile."Is Olive coming to see us off?""Yeah, she is," Seira laughed. "Wouldn't want to miss the moment waving goodbye to me, Ro."Robert just smiled thinly. His eyes focused on Seira standing by his side, showing a radiant face just for him. She looked even prettier in Robert's eyes, although he knew this dress she was wearing had been worn before. But it seemed different this
"Hi, Wife," Robert greets when their eyes finally meet. Full of closeness and intimacy. Even their breaths seem to greet each other's faces."Hi, Husband," Seira replies just as warmly."Finally, today has arrived."Seira smiles tightly."Darling, last night's anger wasn't continued."The woman's brow furrows slightly."If it continues, I won't deny my words about smudging your lipstick.""Why so quiet?" Robert asks, slightly loosening their embrace. "Did I not hug you enough last night?""You're always talking nonsense, aren't you, Ro?" Seira says with a chuckle. "Come on, Johan must have been waiting since earlier, right?"Robert laughs. "When else will I get the chance to see Seira blush again?""Ro!"***Their journey to Sydney was accompanied by several family members, including Olive, whose in-laws also joined to see them off for a while."Don't forget to keep in touch, Mom," Olive says
