The twilight bathes the joglo house in warm light. Raden Adiwijaya stands in the pendopo, watching Ayu sitting on a silk mat, her rounded belly covered in delicate fabric. The evening wind carries the fragrance of frangipani from the garden
Steps closer slowly, gently touching Ayu’s hand “Ayu… you know, every moment with you makes my heart tremble. You… and our child… are the light that brings life to this home.”
Brushes Ayu’s hair gently, fingers running through the soft strands “When you smile, the world around me smiles too. And when you are tired… let me support you, bear all your burdens. I want you to feel safe… always by my side.”
Rests his hand softly on Ayu’s belly, gazing at her with deep love “My child… you have already given me a reason to live better. And Ayu… I promise to always protect both of you. No storm, no time, can take away our love.”
Bows slightly and kisses Ayu’s hand gently, pressing his cheek to her warm hand “I love you… more than words, more than this world. Let me always be by your side, guarding every moment of your life, guarding every moment of our child’s life.”
