The Promise You Make
94. Take on the prospective in-laws

"Look, Mom. My new daughter-in-law's candidate is coming. I don't know what's appropriate for a daughter-in-law like this. If I were a mother, I'd let her go, just let her in-laws work hard while she was alone there," said Adisti when he saw the arrival of Vira.

"What the hell, Dis? I also spoke the same Rio still looks a lot of people. We also do nothing, just talk for a while" said Vira who defended herself.

Nor did he accept having to be ridiculed in front of his future in-laws. From now on he had not spoken much with the middle-aged woman, but Adisti always cornered himself. If there was no Miss Aisyah here, she would definitely make a calculation with her cousin.

"Of course, you guys don't keep fighting. It is better to serve this food there, everyone is waiting," ordered Bu Aisyah who was immediately carried out by Adisti and Vira.

They also bring the burnt products to a place that has been provided for a relaxing meal together. Everyone enjoyed the grilling food together. Bik Rina and Naina also joined, it was also at the request of Adisti because the two people had also been busy preparing everything tonight.

"Mother, stay here tonight, yes! I've prepared a room for Mom and Rio as well. Just for tonight," Adisti asked Ms. Aisyah.

The middle-aged woman looked at the son, as if asking if tonight was sleeping here or not. However, Rio only shrugged both of his shoulders indifferently. The man is also up to his mother if going home is okay, staying overnight is also okay. It's not too late for him either, he's been home late.

"Alright, just for tonight," replied Ms. Aisyah who was met with a smile by Adisti.

Ms. Aisyah also felt sorry for Rio who was driving at night. He knew the son did not mind, just that a day of work must be tiring and needed a quick rest. Rio's apartment is also quite a lot better just stay the night. After all, his room was also prepared by Adisti.

Time had passed so quickly, that no dishes had even been exhausted. Everyone had started to get sleepy and returned to their respective rooms, not forgetting to also clean up the burnt remains tonight.

The next morning Yasa had to go to the office early in the morning because there was a meeting. Likewise with Rio who has to accompany his superiors. The man wanted to book a taxi for his mother to return to the apartment. However, Adisti forbid, in addition to troublesome fear if later the goal is wrong. Moreover, Ms. Aisyah also has not memorized the road in this city.

Let it be Vira who delivers later, consider this the approach with in-laws. The girl has no job here either. Rio did not mind because he understood the intention of his superior wife. Vira herself didn't mind it just that she felt a little awkward. However, the girl was happy to finally have the opportunity to talk alone with her future father-in-law without being bothered by Adisti.

"Son Vira, when will he return to his place of residence? Said Rio not living in this city?" ma'am Aisyah asked breaking the silence as the two were on the road.

"Yes, Mom, I don't live here. There used to be a long time when my mother lived here, but since my mother died and papa business outside the city flourished I and papa moved there. Tomorrow me and Dad will be back. If you were alone how long would you be here? Why don't you go live in Rio's city?" Tanta Vira turned back without seeing his future father-in-law because he had to focus on the streets in front of him.

"Mas Rio's got a sister, Mom?"

"Yes, he has two younger siblings, but one of them has died in an accident, the other is his younger brother who is still in college. Did Rio never tell his family to you?"

Vira just shook her head, she also hasn't told me anything about herself and her family, how could Rio tell a story. "We just got to know each other, ma'am, how we might know each other's lives. Mas Rio's personality sometimes I can't guess. Sometimes good, sometimes cold, sometimes indifferent, sometimes also attentive. I don't know what's right."

Miss Aisyah smiled. He confirmed what his future son-in-law had said. He was sometimes annoyed by his son, especially by others. "You don't know him yet. Actually he's good, it's just that he's a person who can't express his feelings so it seems undesirable, but later after you get to know him inside out, you will also be comfortable being around him."

"I'm amazed that Mom can put herself in any situation."

"You mean?" asked Bu Aisyah while frowning because she really did not understand the meaning of the words of her future daughter-in-law.

"Mom can put yourself to hang out with Adisti and also papa. I'm sorry, Mom, you were from the village before, but I don't think Mom's behavior looks like that. Even I see the behavior of Mothers like the mama-mama socialita today. Sorry, Mom, if it offends you."

"It's okay, I understand. Mother also actually tried to behave as it is. Mothers do not like to curb the attitude of children so, children also like to be open with Mother, without realizing Mother even likes to follow the way they communicate. Even the mother's children also often ngajakin Mom watch drakor. I didn't like it at first, but I liked it a long time ago." Ms. Aisyah chuckled at the end of her sentence, making Vira smile as well.

"Mother's daughter?"

"Yes, she's a girl, but her makeup is like a man, likes to wear pants and T-shirts. Sometimes I get upset with her, why don't I just wear a skirt."

"His name is also a favorite, ma'am, it can't be forced either."

Ms. Aisyah nodded and again said, "Mommy also wants to see the child wear a skirt and dress so that it is beautiful, but free there will even fight with him. She was the same as Rio, her person was stubborn, what she wanted was what had to happen. Hopefully later after marriage the nature of the two children changes. I'm also sure Rio can change in your hands."

"Mother is too much, I'm not that great."
