True Love
Arabella seemed enthusiastic about welcoming Samuel and Ariana who had just arrived from South Korea. Unmitigated, the woman was willing to bother herself to pick up her son and daughter-in-law at the airport.
Together with Randa, Arabella looked patiently waiting in the Arrivals Lounge. At exactly eight o’clock in the evening, the figures of Samuel, Ariana and also Axton were finally seen. The half-century woman immediately stood up and approached the three.
“Ariana, Samuel,” he called. As soon as their positions were close to each other, without any awkwardness Arabella immediately threw her arms towards her son-in-law first. “Mommy missed you so much,” he said as he hugged her tightly.
“Ariana misses Mama too.”
“How are you? Are you healthy while there?” asked Arabella enthusiastically without letting go of her embrace.
“Okay, Ma. Just a little sore from sitting too long.”
Meanwhile, Samuel, who was standing next to Ariana, immediately chuckled. As usual, the man was getting ready to protest.
“Mama just miss Ariana? Don’t you miss Samuel too?”
Arabella opened her arms, turned to Samuel, the woman immediately chuckled.
“Mama is tired of missing you. It’s better to be with Ariana, Mama’s favorite daughter-in-law. Already obedient, if you tell me you will never argue.”
“Since when did Samuel refuse Mama’s orders?”
“Yes, you don’t argue. But there are lots of protests,” Lilinana complained. “By the way, how was your honeymoon?” asked the woman then.
“Our honeymoon was successful, Ma.” Not Ariana, but Samuel who answered. With a mischievous smile, the man threw a coquettish glance at his wife. “Don’t worry, soon Mama’s grandson will be OTW. Just pray for Samuel and Ariana’s business to go smoothly. Anyway, every day, Samuel will try to make it happen.”
Arabella and Randa immediately laughed. While Ariana, as usual, immediately pinched Samuel’s waist. Shame on myself with the behavior of the husband who likes to speak outspokenly.
“How are you, Bim? Are Samuel and Ariana there making good use of their time?”
Arabella’s gaze immediately turned to Samuel’s assistant who had been standing right behind her boss. Arabella felt she needed to clarify whether what her son said was true or just a joke.
“Yes, ma’am,” nodded Axton. “While there, Mr. Samuel and Mrs. Ariana really enjoyed their honeymoon. I think you need to send them both to go abroad again,” said the man deliberately provoking.
“In fact, if you don’t have enough honeymoon time, you can just add more days.” Randa, who had been listening, spoke up too. It’s a pleasure to fuel Arabella as well as Samuel. “You don’t have to worry about work in Indonesia. I’ll handle everything,” said the man confidently.
“That’s not the concept, Mr. Adiaksa,” said Samuel. “If everything is taken care of by you, the next day I will be kicked out of the leadership position.”
Randy laughed. Apparently what he was thinking had been read by his cousin.
“It’s also called business. Who knows it will work.”
“Yeah,” interjected Arabella. “Let’s have dinner together first, how about it? You haven’t had dinner yet, have you?”
Ariana nodded. Apart from feeling a bit jetlagged, he was indeed feeling hungry, right now. The last time I had food was about three hours ago. He didn’t even finish eating it.
Leaving the airport, Axton decided to go straight home. Meanwhile, Arabella and Samuel’s group stopped first at a restaurant to eat dinner.
“Finally, I can taste Indonesian food too,” said Ariana so happily.
Of the many expensive restaurants spread across Jakarta, the woman whose status is the daughter-in-law of the Walters conglomerate instead asked her mother-in-law directly to have dinner at a Padang restaurant. Luckily Arabella didn’t mind one bit. As soon as asked, the woman immediately asked the driver to take them to the place Ariana wanted.
“Surely there you have trouble eating?” she asked
Ariana nodded. While in Korea, he had a little trouble finding the right menu to eat.
“Yeah, every time you eat, you’re sure to be confused about what menu to choose. In Korea, there is rice. But the rice is different, it’s the same in Indonesia. Actually, the hotel restaurant also has western food, but Indonesian food is still the best.”
Arabella, who was indeed sitting next to Ariana, immediately hugged her daughter-in-law. Rubbing the daughter-in-law’s hair gently while speaking. “I’m really sorry for Mama’s daughter-in-law. You can get skinny if you stay in Korea for a long time. If that’s the case, just order the food you like now.
Eat to your heart’s content. If it’s not enough, wrap it up and take it home.”
As soon as the food was served, Arabella immediately invited her son and daughter-in-law to eat their food immediately. While enjoying dinner, Samuel also talked a lot about her experiences while in Korea to her mother and cousins.
After finishing up and getting ready to go home, Arabella was acting up again. He took out a clear bottle containing a collection of pills from his bag and immediately handed it over to Ariana.
“What’s this, Mom?” asked Ariana confused.
“That’s Chinese medicine. Before going to bed, you and Samuel must drink it.”
“Chinese medicine?” Samuel repeated. Then the man’s eyes narrowed sharply at his mother. “This isn’t strong medicine, is it? Without medicine like this, Samuel is already strong and long lasting, Ma.”
Oh my God. Could Samuel’s mouth be taped or not? Why do you like to talk so carelessly?
“No!” argued Arabella. “It’s just a fertility drug. Anyway, you have to drink it before going to bed.”
Like Samuel, Arabella didn’t accept her name as a rejection. Ariana could only nod resignedly then put away what her father-in-law had just given her.
30 minutes later, Ariana and Samuel finally got home. After taking a shower and changing clothes, without saying much Ariana immediately climbed onto the bed. His head felt dizzy because the Jetlag he felt had not completely disappeared.
Meanwhile, Samuel, who saw her wife’s unusual behavior, immediately approached. Come up on the bed and immediately lay down right next to Ariana. Reaching out his hand, without awkwardly rubbing his head and gently massaging the woman’s shoulder with great affection.NôvelDrama.Org owns this.
“Still dizzy?” whispered Samuel.
Ariana nodded. So enjoyed the massage that Samuel gave.
“Not very good. Feels like flying.”
“Want me to make some hot tea?”
“Fine, if it’s not a bother.”
It didn’t take long for Samuel to get out of bed. Walk quickly outside the room to immediately get to the pantry. Made hot tea, then stepped back into the room so he could immediately give the drink to his wife.
“Here drink first,” Samuel ordered when he was standing right next to Ariana.
In that second, Ariana immediately accepted the cup of hot tea that Samuel had brought. Sip slowly and carefully until half is left, then put the cup on the nightstand.
“How? Or do you need something else?” asked Samuel a little worried.
“No. I just need to rest.”
Ariana then decided to lie down. Samuel swiftly immediately crawled up onto the bed. Back to massaging. Trying very hard to make his wife feel comfortable. Until the woman finally fell asleep, Samuel gave Ariana a brief kiss on her forehead and cheek, then decided to go to bed too.
