Original subtitles

Well that's that. Then I told my mother-in-law...

..."Oh God, I have no idea where the post office is."

"Can I just send the letter through email or WhatsApp?"

- I really said that, Ica. - That's so annoying.

- I know. - Now there's WhatsApp, right?

I don't get her. After all, the post office no longer exists, does it?

- It still does, but people rarely go there. - Really? Alright, got it.

You want to know about my mother-in-law? I love her so much.

- She's really nice. - Bullshit.

- No, it's true. She's really nice. - Alright, I was only joking.

But still, when she comes over to my place, she will get annoying and be like...

..."Why did you put this here? What is this?"

I felt like taking a deep breath and tell her...

..."Ma'am, I'm the lady of the house. Can you please chill."

- Sometimes I can't take it.. - Guys, this is so pretty!

- What is it? - It's so cute. Look at the red one.

Oh my God, you're right. That handbag is nice.

- I've never seen that before. - I would like to have one.

But that's like Bianca's limited edition handbag, right?

You mean the limited edition handbag she carries with her every day...

...wherever she goes? There it is.

This bag that I'm carrying? Are you talking about my bag?

I don't bring it every day. Stop talking nonsense.

Yeah, maybe you're right.

- Oh my God, have I told you this? - No, you haven't.

- When I went to KL with my mother-in-law? - No, you haven't! Tell us!

Come on, guys! Stop it, please!

I'm sick of hearing about your mother-in-law.

Can we talk about something else? I'm sick off it, you know?

- Talk about something more exciting. - Tell her, Ica.

Come on, Bianca. Our mother-in-law are in Jakarta, you know?

Not like your mother-in-law. She's in Palembang, isn't she?

- Pontianak. - That's in the same island.

- No, you're wrong. - It's not in the same island.

- I don't care, just continue. - So, what's your point?

That's why it's natural for us to talk about our mother-in-law.

You need to know how it feels to navigate your mother-in-law's feeling.

You know, the adrenaline rushes from here to the top of your head. You can't avoid it.

- Isn't it thrilling, Melissa? - Very thrilling.

But are you actually close to your mother-in-law, Bianca?

She's saved by the bell.

What was that? Okay. So, you're going to Singapore tomorrow?

- But is Risyad's mother still alive? - Of course, she is, Ica.

- She's still alive, I think. - But are you going to have dinner at home?

Okay, that's fine.

I'll help you prepare for everything, okay?

I love you. Bye.

- And then? - Yeah, what were you going to say?

- Hello, Mbok Nah? - Oh my gosh.

- Is she calling another guy? - Please prepare for everything, okay?

Don't forget to clean them as well.

And also fold all my husband's clothes near the bathroom, okay?

Right. Thank you, Mbok Nah.

Oh my God, I have so much to do.

So, where were we? What was I talking about?

- Your mother-in-law! - Yeah, that's right.

- Can you bring it all inside? - Yes, I can.

Just bring them all inside, okay?

- Mommy! - Bira!

Where have you been, Mom?

I told you I was going to meet my friends.

Just bring them inside.

And what did you bring me?

Bira, don't ruin my handbag!

Mbok Nah, why don't you take him with you? I brought some food.

Open the cake box for him. Mbok Nah, open it for him.

Yes, ma'am.

You're finally home, Bianca.

- Why are you already home? - It's my day off.

I'm just an intern, you know?

One day, I work my ass off, and the next day, my boss tells me to go home.

That's why you should've worked with Risyad.

That's a great idea, you know? I get to travel a lot.

Don't you agree?

So you think his employee would be the one to travel?

- Isn't that the case? - Come on, Tomi.

It's a travel agency, isn't it?

Honey!

I've got everything ready for you in the suitcase, okay?

- Honey? - Thank you, dear.

What are you doing?

Scoot.

You know, honey? I was talking to Melissa...

...and she told me that the limited edition handbag that you gave me...

...looks very similar to the handbag of some actress.

And she also told me that she just came from a trip to Labuan Bajo...

...and the pictures she took there were so beautiful...

...and she also sent them to me. You have to see them.

These pictures are very beautiful and I would really like to go there.

- Honey? - Yes?

What are you doing? Aren't you listening to me?

I'm listening, honey. Hold on.

I'm trying to finish my presentation for tomorrow in Singapore.

Exactly, you're going to be busy tomorrow. So, why are you working right now?

- I also want your attention, Risyad! - Alright, just a little longer.

- Risyad, I want your attention! - Honey!

Why aren't you listening to me when I'm talking to you?

Okay, come here.

Look, I'm going to put this away, okay?

Okay, let me ask you something.

I get myself busy like this for who?

Especially, with my new position at the office, it's obvious...

...that I have more responsibility.

Besides, I work hard like this...

...so you can still hangout and go shopping with your cool friends.

I'm not like that, you know?

The point is, everything that I do...

- ...I do it for.. - Us.

Right.

Alright, show it to me. What were you saying? Labuan Bajo?

- No, the shoe first. - Alright.

So, do you prefer red or yellow?

- What? Let me see. - Here.

Hello, Mom. Sorry, I didn't hear you call.

- Risyad, my boy. - What is it, Mom?

- I'm going to Jakarta tomorrow, okay? - What?

You're going to Jakarta tomorrow? Why so sudden?

How could I tell you? It's very hard for me to call you.

I will arrive at Jakarta by tomorrow morning, okay?

Alright then, I'll pick you up tomorrow.

You don't have to do that, honey. I can only go to your house at night.

I need to go the hospital first to visit Rina's father.

You still remember her, don't you?

Of course, I do. How can I forget?

You should come with me and pick me up at the hospital.

Damn, I have to go to Singapore tomorrow afternoon, Mom.

What if Bianca will be the one to pick you up?

- Hello, Mom? - That's okay, dear.

I'm sure she'll be busy hanging out with her friends or something.

That's okay. I can take the cab.

Okay, I got to go. I'll call you again in the morning.

I need to pack my things.

Hello, Mom? Hello?

She hung up.

Wake up, Tomi!

What are you doing?

PORN HOEB You haven't seen the latest videos

- Wake up, Tomi! - What is it, Bianca?

I'm going to clean this room. You're sleeping with Bira tonight.

There's going to be a guest.

Wake up, Tomi!

Damn.

Bianca, what's going on anyway?

Why haven't you taken a shower, Tomi?

Besides, aren't you doing your internship today?

It's my day off, Bianca.

Who's going to come here anyway?

Her Majesty the Queen, Risyad's mother.

- Mbok Nah. - Yes?

Hi, Mom!

How are you?

Very bad.

The driver got lost. I think you gave the wrong direction.

What's wrong with you? I can't believe it.

Hey, who is that? Who's hiding there?

I'm sure you are Bira, my grandson, aren't you?

Say hello to your grandma.

Come on, don't you want to say hello to your grandma?

- Come on, give me your hand. - Go on, honey.

- Good boy! - That's right.

Don't you remember her, Bira? This is Grandma Hany.

You often make video calls with her.

But not that often. Isn't that right, dear?

We only make video calls once every two months.

You also haven't visited me in Pontianak.

Come on, show me what you have inside, okay?

What's inside the house?

Mom, here's your drink.

- Thank you. - Sure. Go ahead and drink it.

- Bianca. - Yes?

How is your parents doing in Netherlands?

My parents are doing well, and I think they like living there.

That's good.

Sorry, Bianca. But if Risyad didn't forced me to stay here...

...I would've booked a hotel. I don't want to trouble you.

Oh no. It's no trouble at all.

After all, this is also your home, isn't it?

I'm sure Bira would also like to have her grandma here.

Isn't that right, Bira?

Would you like that?

I don't think so.

You said you came here to Jakarta to visit a friend, didn't you?

That's right. He's an old friend of mine.

Risyad knows him as well. It's Rina's father.

Now he is being treated at the hospital because of cancer.

Oh, I see.

So, how long are you planning to stay in Jakarta?

Only for two or three weeks. After that, I will return to Pontianak.

Tomi.

Mom, this is Tomi. He is my cousin.

- Say hello. - Grandma.

Hello, Tomi. I'm Hany, Risyad's mother.

Actually, we've already met at Bianca's wedding.

Really?

But you were angry with me at that time, because I dropped your phone.

I dropped it when I was about to take a picture. It slipped out of my hands.

So, that was you?

You were the one who broke the screen of my phone and I couldn't use it anymore.

Mom, Tomi has been staying here for a month because of his internship.

If you need a hand or anything, you can ask Tomi.

- Please help Mom, okay? - Alright.

How long have you been married?

Seven years.

For 7 years I have lived independently by myself and have always been healthy.

So, you don't have to worry. I can take care of myself...

...when I'm here, okay?

- Oh my God, did she really say that? - This is crazy, isn't it?

This is so crazy. I'm telling the truth here.

And that's that. After she said that, I froze and didn't know what to say.

Hold on. But your mother-in-law...

...is actually pretty cool, isn't she?

- Why are you siding with her? - No, this is what I meant.

She sounds like someone who can take care of herself. That's it.

Many parents are very dependent on their children, you know?

Especially, to their son. Do you know what I mean?

Well, that's about it. But I think that's cool.

Well, you have a point there.

You both already know that Risyad's father died when he was a child.

That's why his mother is very independent and can do almost everything on her own.

And then, after Risyad is married to me...

...we live here and her mother in Pontianak, so she's all alone by herself.

But he was very busy, you know? He had a lot of work.

So it's impossible for us to go to Pontianak.

- How long have we been friends, Bianca? - That's right.

Melissa and I know that you don't like to pretend to like someone.

I'm sure you have a strong influence as to why he never visited her.

Don't be crazy. I wouldn't do such a thing.

I'm not that sadistic, you know? You guys are crazy.

I didn't say that. You said it yourself.

That's right.

Well, now I can only hope that they'll get back soon.

- Your mother-in-law? - You mean, Risyad?

Both of them.

Well..

Hold on.

It's Risyad.

- Hello, honey? - Honey.

Oh God, the Corona virus has reached Singapore.

We were told to return to Jakarta immediately and do self-isolation, okay?

Honey, I'll call you back later, okay?

What's wrong, Bianca?

What is it, Bianca?

What's wrong?

You need to do self-isolation for 14 days...

...especially for those who recently went overseas.

- Honey! - Sweetheart.

- I miss you. - No!

- Remember, don't get too close. - Daddy!

- Here's my champ right here! - Bira!

No! Now what did I tell you?

- There's a Corona virus right now.. - Risyad, my son!

- My lovely son, give me a kiss. - Mom!

Honey, help me here. What if there's a Corona virus on me, Mom?

- Give me a hug, just a little bit. - No, Mom!

Risyad?

- Yes, Mom? - Son?

I brought you milk, eggs and some vitamins.

- Please drink it, okay? - Thanks, Mom.

How are you feeling now? Do you feel better?

I'm fine, Mom. I'm doing self-isolation just for precaution, that's all.

- Aren't you going back home tomorrow? - I'm don't want to go home.

I will wait for you to finish your isolation, then I'll return to Pontianak.

You don't need to worry. I'm fine, you know?

- Besides, Bianca is here. - Bianca..

Mom, I need to go to the toilet, okay?

Just put it in front of the door. I'll take it myself, okay?

But if you need anything, just call me out, okay?

Alright, Mom.

- Hi, honey. - Are you okay, sweetheart?

- What? - Are you okay?

I can't hear you. What did you say?

You'll be sorry, if you don't drink it.

- Honey. - Hi.

Touch it.

If you need anything, just tell me, okay?

You have to be patient, okay? This is going to be over soon.

Alright, honey.

I'll be fine, for us.

How is my mother, Bianca?

Well, you know how she is. She's still concern about you.

She's still sad, you know?

Poor my mother. I think she can't stop thinking about me.

Honey...

...having to stay here by my own self...

...I think I begin to understand how it feels to be my mother.

Have you had your dinner?

- Yes, I've already had dinner. - Alright then, you should rest now.

I miss you.

- I miss you more. - I miss you!

- I miss you more. - Okay, bye.

Bye, goodnight.

That's why you shouldn't snore too loud.

Why aren't you sleeping yet?

How am I suppose to sleep? You snore as if you were using a speaker.

Well, what can I say? You didn't want to sleep with Mrs. Hany.

I should be the one to sleep with Bira.

I can't be the one to sleep with Mrs. Hany, you know?

Be patient, Bianca.

Soon Risyad will finish his isolation.

And soon his mother will return to her home.

Soon everything will go back to normal.

Amen.

Amen, Bianca.

But usually, if you say your wish out loud, it won't come true.

Ouch!

Bianca!

It hurts, you know?

Breaking News.

Starting today, the government of Jakarta will implement large-scale social restrictions...

...to prevent the spread of Covid-19.

Residents are advised to maintain social distancing...

...wear masks, and wash their hands regularly.

Teaching and learning activities, as well as office work, will be conducted online.

Several flights were also canceled.

Residents are advised to stay at home for an indefinite period of time.

- Good morning, everyone! - Morning, ma'am.

How are you all?

How are you doing, Bianca? Got any updates?

Gosh, I think I've gained 5 kilograms.

That's terrifying! Don't scare me like that.

I think that part of my mother-in-law is incurable.

That's a huge gossip. So, now she's still in your house?

Of course. What do you think? But I don't know for how long.

Yes? Hello, Rina.

Alright.

How is your father doing?

After all, we must stay healthy and productive during this pandemic...

...so we wouldn't be too stressed out.

Instead of spending money on Botox, this is better, don't you think?

So that the wrinkles don't grow.

Number one, exercise more, number two, read more.

What are you doing, Tomi?

Besides, why do you need to make those notes?

One, two, three.. That's just like Pancasila.

Well, these are the list of activities I can do when I'm staying at home.

Not what I can do, but what I should do would sound more appropriate.

"Should".

- Who told you to make that? - Nobody.

I make this for myself.

In order to?

In order to..

Even though, I'm staying at home, but I will still...

...stay healthy and stay productive.

If you want to stay productive, you should spend more time in the kitchen.

No, Mom. I'm just doing this for fun.

I forgot that there's Mbok Nah here.

So, you can just yell, "Mbok Nah!"

"Mbok Nah!"

So you can have more time for having fun.

Having fun with your phone, gossiping your friends.

By the way...

...why do I feel as if the situation in this house has something...

...missing inside it?

Delivery!

Who is it for, sir?

- For Mrs. Hanifa. - Yes, that's me.

Tomi, can you please spray the packages?

Yes, that's mine, sir. Hold on.

Just place them there. We will help you.

Spray them first.

Tomi, help me open the gate.

Okay.

- Excuse me, ma'am. - Thank you, sir.

Thank you.

Bring them in, over there. Put them near the door.

Bianca.

- Mom, isn't this too much plant? - Of course, not.

Later you will see, okay?

If I've organized them, they will look beautiful.

All green, very refreshing to look.

I'm just concerned about Mbok Nah.

- What if she couldn't take care of them? - No, that's not necessary.

These are my plants, so I will be the one to take care of them.

I'll do it myself. I don't need your help or Mbok Nah.

Don't worry about it.

This is one of my efforts to stay productive, you know?

What is it? You don't approve of it?

- No, I'm fine with it. - Alright then.

Starting today, I'm going to make every inch of this house...

...have a little bit of my touch. Come on.

Okay, now please excuse me.

It's not just us. But all tourism sectors in the world are affected.

I don't know what to say.

Let's just hope this damn pandemic will soon be over.

Okay, I'll call you back later.

Keep healthy, okay? Give my regards to the others.

- Bye. - Honey.

How long do you think your mother is going to stay here?

What do you mean?

How should I say this to you?

Listen.

I have..

I have.. You know from the start that when we got together...

...it's hard for me to get along with your mother, you know?

Don't you remember that every time I tried, your mother turned it down?

What's your point?

Ever since your mother came here...

...it has not been easy for me to deal with your mother.

So you thought it was easy for me when Tomi decided to move here?

Why are you bringing Tomi into this?

What's the difference between the two of them?

- They're both guests, right? - Here's the thing.

When Tomi came here, I didn't bring him directly, you know?

I asked your permission first.

So I have to ask your permission first to bring my mother to my own house?

Yeah, you're right.

I'm the one who's wrong.

No, I should be the one to apologize.

I know that this isn't easy for you.

But right now we are facing a pandemic.

Nothing is easy for anybody.

Imagine this.

Flights are still grounded.

How can my mother even return to Pontianak?

Well, I'm sure that when the flights are available once again...

...I'm sure my mother will want to go home, but now?

Now we have no choice but to wait until the situation returns to normal.

Well, come to think of it...

...maybe this pandemic happened...

...so you can get along with my mother.

There's no harm in trying, right?

Don't you agree?

Come on.

That's right.

Yes, only with Rina.

Alright, I'll talk to Risyad when the time is right, okay?

Alright.

What are you doing?

- I want to.. - To become Lady Liberty?

- Are you eavesdropping? - No, I was just..

- Wait, I'm on the phone. - With whom?

That's none of your business.

Hi, grandma! What are you doing there?

Come here. I didn't know it was you.

Come here, sweetheart.

I want to introduce you to all my friends, okay?

- Alright. - Okay, now hold this first.

This one is called Lintang.

And this one is Seruni.

And that one there is called Via.

And the middle one over there is called Erika.

What about this one?

Well, this one is called..

My lovely grandson.

Why am I like this, Tomi?

Actually, I was going to ask you that.

I dated Risyad for quite a while, you know?

And I don't really know Risyad's mother.

I only knew her when we were about to get married.

That's it.

And then she was in Pontianak and I'm here.

If that's the case, I think it's normal. Don't judge a book by it's cover.

But since Risyad's mother came here...

...why do I feel like she only wants to test me?

As if she wanted to see how I would react.

And she's being cynical about me.

She kept turning down all my efforts.

She even made me her competition to get Risyad's attention.

I don't think she would go that far, Bianca.

The truth is, I think that's normal.

But she should've done it a long time ago when Risyad and I were still dating.

I'm his wife now, aren't I?

I just hope the airport will soon be opened again.

Otherwise, let me be the one to go to Pontianak.

What?

Don't you know that they will open the airport soon?

- You're lying. - I'm being serious here.

Don't you know that I always pay attention to news updates about Covid-19?

Covid-19 is actually a global elite conspiracy.

Yes, I'm telling the truth, Bianca.

I saw it on the news. I swear.

- They're going to open it? - Yes.

So, you can relax now.

You know, Bob Marley used to say, "Don't worry, be happy."

Because soon Mrs. Hany will return to Pontianak.

You're right, you know? You're not so dumb after all.

I'm sure everything will be back to normal, don't you think?

The same goes for me.

I'm going back to what I normally do, play video games.

Bye.

What got into you, Bianca? You've never been up this early.

Hi, Mom!

- Good morning, Mom. - Morning, Bianca.

Oh my.

Are you feeling well?

Come on, Mom.

Recently, I really love to watch the news, you know?

Seating distance restrictions and temporary closure of some terminals.

This is done to make it easier to monitor incoming passengers.

The available flight routes take effect on July 1, 2020.

Which is Jakarta-Medan, Jakarta-Pontianak..

Mom, I'm sure you're so happy to hear this, right?

That means now you can go back to Pontianak, right?

You seem happier than me.

Come on, Mom.

What do you need? Do you want me to order the ticket for you...

...or pack your bags?

Mom?

- What is it, Mbok Nah? - I want to ask your permission.

- Permission for what? - To go home.

What?

Seating distance restrictions and temporary closure of some terminals.

This is done to make it easier to monitor incoming passengers.

What are you whispering about, Mbok Nah?

I have to go back to my hometown, ma'am.

- Are you sure you want to go home? - Yes, I am.

My youngest daughter is about to give birth.

But going by a travel agency isn't safe yet. Is going by bus available?

My friend is going to give me a ride to my hometown.

If God wills it, it will be safe.

Then what about Bira?

But you're going to return, right?

Hi, honey. So you're awake already.

- Good morning, sweetheart. - Morning.

I just got a call from a friend of mine.

His parents have just passed away.

Died because of what?

Covid.

My friends and I will be raising money for him to help him arrange their funeral.

But I can't donate much because we are short of money right now.

It's okay, dear. Let's donate as much as we can give, okay?

- Honey. - What?

I have a bad news.

It's Mbok Nah.. She wants to go back to her hometown.

Well, I don't mind if she wants to go back to her hometown.

We can always find her replacement.

But I'm concerned about Bira.

He's really close to Mbok Nah. He's going to be sad.

I'm sure he's going to be sad.

Well, actually...

...are you Bira's mother or is it Mbok Nah?

After all, Mbok Nah is only his baby sitter and he's not a baby anymore, honey.

I know, but here's the thing. You need to understand.

Mbok Nah has been taking care of him since he was three years old.

So, they are very close.

There's no way he wouldn't be sad if Mbok Nah left.

That means from now on, you have to be more focused on taking care of Bira.

You mean, all this time I wasn't focused on taking care of him?

- Gosh, that's not what I meant. - Then what?

You know they cut 50% of salary, don't you?

That means we have to be more efficient now.

So, I agree if we let Mbok Nah go.

But the problem isn't just Bira, honey. I need her too.

Who's going to do the cleaning, washing, and the cooking?

- Don't put that on me! - Alright.

Let's find a new housekeeper...

...who is cheaper and younger.

So she can still catch Bira if he runs around everywhere.

Okay?

Alright.

- Honey. - What?

We will be alright, aren't we?

Yes.

It's done.

Alright, you need to take a shower, okay?

- Honey. - What?

The airport is now opened, you know?

I'm just saying.

Bira, let's play outside, okay?

- Alright, Uncle. - Come on.

Mom, Bianca, I want to..

Let me take your place, sir.

Later, Mbok Nah.

Right.

- Bianca, Mom. - What?

- I want to say something. - No, that's okay.

I already know what you're going to say. I've heard it in the news.

Flights are now available again, right?

And now, I will pack my things and return to Pontianak.

Alright, I'm going back now.

- It's not about that, Mom. - Then what?

Mbok Nah wants to go back to her hometown, right?

After I thought about it...

...I want you...

...to stay even longer in Jakarta, Mom.

What do you mean?

What does Mbok Nah have to do with me returning to Pontianak?

That's why, listen to me!

Mom, you know how it is.

Corona virus is more susceptible to people your age.

I know that.

What if you caught that virus when you're alone in Pontianak?

That's impossible. I'm really good, you know?

Honey, you said it yourself that you need help taking care of this household.

Rather than trying hard to find a replacement for Mbok Nah...

...why don't you and Mom work together to take care of this family?

Don't you agree?

Okay, listen.

These are difficult times for everyone.

Including me, who has a lot of pressure with my job.

So I want you and Mom to be near me at times like these.

So I'm begging you and Bianca to get along.

For the sake of me and this house.

Okay?

Alright.

Are you serious, Mbok Nah?

- Yes, I'm going back to my hometown. - Why are you going back, Mbok Nah?

I have to go back because my daughter is about to give birth.

Mbok Nah..

Come here, give me a hug.

Please don't go! Don't go anywhere, Mbok Nah!

There, there, honey. But I must go home now.

- No, don't go! - There, there, honey.

- Please don't go! - Calm down, honey.

Come here, sweetheart.

You're a big boy now, Bira. I'm sure you'll be fine by yourself.

I have to get back to my hometown.

- But who's going to play with me then? - Your father can play with you.

There's still your mother, grandma and also Uncle Tomi.

I have to go home now, okay?

Come on, Bira. She's going to be late. She needs to go now, okay?

It's going to be okay, honey.

That's enough, Bira. She's going to be late.

- I'll be on my way, ma'am. - Yes, take care, Mbok Nah.

Goodbye, ma'am. There, there, Bira.

Mbok Nah!

- Farewell, ma'am. - Goodbye.

Have a safe trip, Mbok Nah. Give my regards to your family.

There, there, Bira.

Mbok Nah!

Come on, Bira. That's enough.

- Mbok Nah! - You can play with me, okay?

- Come on, let's play together, okay? - No!

Come here, honey. There, there.

It's okay, honey. Grandma is here.

Don't cry, okay?

Come on, let's go inside.

Bira!

Next, one of the economic sectors affected by Covid-19 is the global tourism industry.

From airlines to Tour and Travel agencies around the world...

...has experienced great loss.

In fact, there are several companies that went out of business.

Can't you guys keep it down when playing?

Why is Mom always angry, Uncle Tomi?

- Alright, let's play again. - Sure.

Look what I've cooked for you guys.

This is my special fried chicken. It's very delicious.

Do you want to try it, Bira?

This is your father's favorite food since he was small. Here.

You have to try this.

Delicious!

Here you go. Try it.

Here, honey.

Do you want some, Tomi? Here.

Just one piece, okay?

Come on, eat.

- Delicious, isn't it. - It's hot, but very delicious.

It tastes good, right?

Hey, stop daydreaming. Eat up.

Go on.

Where's Bianca?

- Who? - Bianca.

I think she's cleaning the pool, Mom.

Come on, let's eat.

I really like it, grandma.

You should've cooked this for me from the start.

Yes!

Honey, come here and try my mother's cooking.

Later, I'm almost done.

It's delicious, isn't it, Bianca?

This is Risyad's favorite food when he was small.

He really loves it.

I want to eat this everyday, grandma.

From now on, this will be my favorite food.

Good. But which one is better?

My special fried chicken or fast food?

Your special fried chicken, no doubt about it.

Delicious.

I just remembered, when you were dating Rina...

...she said, "Mrs. Hany, please cook me your special fried chicken."

"It's very delicious."

No, it's okay. That's history now.

Haven't you told Bianca that you've once dated Rina?

Why do I have to tell her? It's not important.

When are you going to visit her father?

She keeps asking about you.

We are still experiencing a pandemic. How can I visit him?

Speak off the devil! Rina's father is calling.

I have to answer this.

Hello?

Yes.

Why haven't you told me about Rina?

Because it's not important. It was a long time ago when I was in high school.

Mom brought it up because she's still friends with Rina's father.

I need to pee.

Why are you bringing a glass to the toilet?

Are you going to pee, or refill your glass?

Tomi, we're eating right now.

Sorry, Risyad.

Yes, how are you feeling? Are you getting better?

I haven't got the chance to tell Risyad about it.

Hopefully, he would approve.

And how about Rina? Does she approve?

Thank God.

After all, this will be a second marriage.

I'm sure they need time to think about it.

Yes, we just need to be patient.

I'm not leaving Jakarta anytime soon. I still have time to persuade him.

Alright.

Where are you at, Bianca? In a clothing store?

Who cares? That's not important right now.

What is it, Bianca? What emergency news have you got?

Oh my God, are you pregnant again? You're like a cat, you know?

Stop it! Don't talk any nonsense.

Guys, I think I know why Risyad's mother came to Jakarta in the first place.

She wants to separate me from Risyad.

She will make Risyad marry her friend's daughter.

- Oh my God! Are you serious? - No.

Hold on a second. How do you know that?

Your mother-in-law told you that?

I know, because I was..

Who cares about that? I just know, okay?

You see? I told you.

I knew something fishy was going on when she came here in the first place.

And then, what did Risyad say?

I don't think he knows yet and I haven't told him about it.

But I don't think Risyad is going to leave you just like that.

Bianca, Ica, listen to me.

Bianca, have you ever heard of the term polygamy?

Did you know that parents hold online seminars...

...just to get their sons to practice polygamy?

Isn't that crazy? Seminars like this are trending, you know?

That's unacceptable! This is fatal!

Are you even.. No.

Does your mother-in-law think you are some kind of intern?

Replacing you just like that? That's unacceptable!

You have to speak to Risyad and tell him who's the boss, okay?

But what am I supposed to say to him?

Bianca, after all, Risyad is your husband, you know?

You two can talk it over nicely, can't you?

And Bianca, listen to me.

You need to be very careful with your mother-in-law, okay?

Honey?

Aren't you asleep yet?

I'm about to.

But I couldn't sleep yet.

Honey...

...I need to tell you something.

It's important.

Me too.

I also want to tell you something.

You know...

...that I work in a tour and travel company.

Since we are still a start-up company...

...since last year...

...we have struggled with many things.

But because of this pandemic...

...everything got messed up.

Until finally...

...some of the employees will be terminated...

...including me.

What do you mean?

That's what it is.

The company can no longer afford to pay its employees.

I have to find another job.

Are you serious?

Then what are we going to do?

From now on, we need to use our savings.

But if this keeps up..

Why is it that...

...during a pandemic...

...everything becomes more difficult...

...and more of a burden?

There's always another trial every day.

I want everything to go back the way it used to be...

...when everything was perfect.

Me too.

I want everything to go back the way it used to be.

I don't have to be burdened with installments...

...or run out of savings.

It's all for Bira's future.

I just need to think...

...about our family.

But that was easy, honey...

...when we have everything.

But now...

...I only have..

I only have...

...fear.

There, there, honey.

Sweetheart.

Hey.

It's okay, honey.

Hey.

You need to look at me. Hey.

I'm really scared.

I'm afraid..

Afraid I would be incapable...

...of being the breadwinner for this family.

Honey.

Sweetheart.

Risyad.

Honey.

Please look at me.

You need to remember, okay?

I will always help you...

...and I will always be there for you.

And I will be..

I will be the best supporter for you, okay?

For better or for worse, we will face it all together.

I believe...

...and I'm sure you will find a way out of this situation.

What were you going to tell me?

I just want to tell you...

...that I'm grateful I have you in my life.

I love you.

I love you.

Why are you daydreaming, Mom?

Mom?

Okay, let's start.

Bira, you're ready, aren't you?

I told you to button your shirt. Why did you unbutton it?

Here, it's on now. Look.

There you go.

I'm going to do some cleaning, okay? Here, it's already on.

The battery is low, Mom.

Where's the charger? It was over there yesterday.

- I don't know where it is. - How can you not no?

It was right over here yesterday.

Bira, hurry and help me find the charger.

Come on, Mom. I should skip online school today.

You can't skip online school. What's the matter with you?

Just look for the charger first.

No, Mom! I don't want to do online school today!

That's out of the question, Bira! Come on, help me find the charger.

Mom, I want to play today, okay?

Can you at least listen to me just this once?

I'm tired of taking care of you, you know?

You should've gone with Mbok Nah!

With her, you don't need to go to school and everybody's happy here!

Good morning, Bira's Mom.

Is everything okay?

Bira!

Bianca, get after him!

- Honey. - You wait here, Mom, okay?

- Bira might return. - Alright.

Hurry!

Tomi, find him! Quickly!

- I'll look for him that way. - Okay, go and find him now.

Hurry!

Where are you, Bira?

- Can you put your phone down? - No, honey.

All the mothers in Bira's school...

- ...are all asking me about it. - Can you stop worrying about your image?

Why did you yelled at Bira in front of his friends, teacher and even Mom?

Don't you think about his feelings?

Hello, Mom?

What?

He's okay, isn't he?

Alright, we're going back now.

Honey.

My favorite grandson. There, there, honey.

Bira!

- Is my champ okay? - Bira!

- He's okay. - Bira, please forgive me, okay?

Go away!

- There, there, Bira. - Bira.

Bira, listen to me, honey.

You are a good boy, you know? You shouldn't be angry with your mother.

Poor her. She's really exhausted, you know?

She's doing everything by herself. Cleaning the house and all, okay?

There, there, honey.

Honey, just go and calm yourself down.

- Let him be with Mom for now. - But I'm his mother.

I want to speak to him.

- Bira, come here, honey. - Go away, Mom!

- Go away! - That's enough.

- Bira, don't be like that. - That's enough, Bianca.

Let him cool off first. It's okay.

Take her away.

Let's go.

Come on.

- Mom. - Yes?

- How is Bira doing? - He's already asleep.

He's a lot better now.

Bianca.

Is the anything that you would like to say?

I just can't believe it.

How could you scold Bira in front of his teacher and friends?

Aren't you ashamed of yourself?

You're his mother, you know?

You should know how fragile a child's emotions are at his age.

You should be able to control your emotion!

- That's enough, Mom. - Enough what?

I saw it with my own eyes!

Listen. In my entire life, I have never yelled at Risyad.

Especially, in front of his friends.

- What kind of mother are you? - Mom!

I'm sorry.

Sorry if I can't be a perfect mother in this house.

Sorry if I can't be a good mother like you, Mom.

Everyone has their own qualities, Bianca.

Really?

Like the qualities of a liar, perhaps?

What is the real reason you came to Jakarta?

To visit your friend?

Or is there a wedding that you are planning right now?

Honey, what's the matter with you? Why are you attacking her like this?

Honey, your perfect mother here isn't being completely honest with you.

Your mother conspired with Rina's father to marry you off to Rina.

What?

That's enough!

Honey, don't accuse my mother!

I'm not accusing her! I heard it myself!

Your mother often calls Rina's father.

For what else besides marrying you to Rina?

- Isn't that right? - Mom.

Hold on a second. Please explain it to me.

What's the meaning of this? Why Rina?

Yes, that's right.

I'm indeed planning a wedding.

You see? What did I tell you?

Planning my wedding with Rina's father!

You're joking, right?

You're kidding, aren't you?

Do I look like I'm joking?

Actually, I was going to tell you.

But because Rina's father is in the hospital...

...we decided to postpone our wedding.

- What were you thinking, Mom? - What's wrong with that?

What's wrong with that?

All this time, I never forbid you to marry whoever you want!

So this time, it's my decision.

I can live on my own.

And I deserve to be happy!

Whether the mother-in-law nor the daughter-in-law...

...you're all the same!

Risyad!

Are you happy now?

You win, Bianca.

Please take good care of my son and grandson.

Honey.

Honey.

I saw your mother leave bringing all her things.

She can take care of herself.

I want to..

Suit yourself.

Whatever you want to do, it's up to you.

I don't care.

Here, honey. Let me help you.

Bira.

I had a lot on my mind yesterday.

That's why I shouldn't have said such things to you yesterday.

I promise that won't happen again, okay?

I want to apologize to all the things that I've done to you.

I love you so much, you know?

But I've been busy with myself, wasn't I?

Busy doing unimportant things...

...when the most important thing in my life is you.

And you were being cared for by someone else...

...like Mbok Nah and Uncle Tomi.

I'm sorry, okay?

I also would like to say sorry to you.

Why is that?

Actually...

...I just wanted to play with you, Mom.

That's why..

That's why I hid that laptop charger.

No, that wasn't your fault.

I should be the one to apologize. That was my fault.

I should have understood you better.

Listen, from now on, I promise, I will play with you more often, okay?

Oh, my dear.

Here, Mom. Let me introduce you to my friends.

Okay. So, who are your friends?

So, this one here is called Lintang.

- This is Lintang? - Yes.

- And this one is called Seruni. - Okay.

And this one is Bianca.

Bianca? That's my name, you know?

I'll bet you deliberately chose the most beautiful plant, didn't you?

It wasn't me who gave the names, Mom. But it was grandma.

Grandma told me that Bianca is the most spoiled plant.

We need to be careful when caring for it.

But if we water it properly, it will grow beautifully like this.

Bianca, what are you doing?

Oh, it's you, Tomi. You startled me there.

How are you and Risyad?

You know how it is, Tomi.

He is still not talking to me.

It's been years since we're together.

But he has never been this cold towards me.

Well, I understand...

...that he is having a lot of burden right now.

At the office, at home..

Especially, from me.

First, it was Bira who ran away, then Mbok Nah went back to her hometown.

And now, seeing you sad like this, maybe you are planning to leave too.

This house will be empty.

No, Tomi.

I could never leave this house.

This house is the only family I've got.

Bianca, Mrs. Hany also said the same thing.

So you often talk to Mrs. Hany?

Yes, but I have no intention of switching sides.

Then?

We're all in the same house, aren't we?

Like it or not, we always run into each other.

Okay.

And of course, we talked.

She told me once...

...that Risyad is the only goal in her life.

That's why she was so happy when she could stay with him.

After all, who wants to live alone?

I even got bored of it.

I'm the same as Bira, you know? The only child.

I get tired of being alone.

But I'm grateful, you know?

Grateful for this pandemic.

Although, I have no money.

But I have found a new family.

You, Risyad, Bira...

...Mbok Nah..

Including, Mrs. Hany.

Oh God, Tomi.

I think this time I have made the worst mistake.

How do you think I can bring Mrs. Hany back to this house?

I'm sure she's already in Pontianak by now.

Bianca, Mrs. Hany hasn't come home yet. She's still in Jakarta.

I know where she is.

What did you say?

The truth is, I still keep contact with Mrs. Hany...

...through Facebook.

You still contact her through Facebook?

That's right.

Tomi, that's the rightest thing you've ever done in your life!

And then what?

Do you know exactly how to convince her to go back here?

Don't call me "Bianca" if I can't bring her back here.

Grandma!

Bira?

Bira, sweetheart! Oh, my lovely grandson.

Come here.

- Tomi! - Grandma.

- I give you my condolences. - Thank you.

Thank you for bringing Bira here, Tomi.

I feel better now.

Actually, we can be here today because of someone's idea.

What do you mean?

I thought you were just with Bira.

- Grandma! - Mom!

Mom, I just want to talk to you.

This is about Risyad.

Mom, I give you my condolences for the death of Rina's father.

What do you care?

The one that I love is now resting in peace up there.

So, you can stop with the drama in your life.

Aren't you satisfied yet by separating me from Risyad?

I want to apologize to you, Mom.

I'm sorry for the last few months.

But it's impossible for me to apologize if you always think I'm wrong.

That's why I'm afraid.

I'm afraid of losing Risyad.

I know that...

...you see me as a woman who can't do anything.

That's why I thought...

...you would find someone to replace me for Risyad.

You said you're afraid of losing Risyad?

I have already lost him.

Ever since his father passed away...

...Risyad is the only treasure I've got.

My only pride.

My life partner.

Until he went to Jakarta...

...and to marry you.

He has always been busy...

...enjoying his own world...

...together with his little family.

I could only wait..

Wait for him to call me...

...or to return to Pontianak...

...just to hold me in his arms.

Even for just a short while...

...Rina's late father has done a lot for me.

He accompanied me till the end of his life.

It has always been my destiny...

...to be alone until the day that I die.

Risyad.

Risyad.

You are exactly like him.

You always think that you can do everything by yourself.

I believe...

...that no one in this world can live alone.

If it's okay with you..

If it's okay with you, I would like to bring you back home.

To our house.. Our home, Mom.

Home?

I promise I won't let you feel lonely again, okay?

Please forgive me, Bianca...

...for everything that I've done.

Please forgive me.

I also want to apologize, Mom.

Go home?

You are my daughter.

- Bira? - Is this enough cheese?

- I'm home! - This cheese is good, but..

- Honey! - Hi, son. You're home.

Come here, honey. Have a seat.

- Mom? - Yes.

Why are you here?

- Where is Bira? - He's already asleep.

It's a long story. I'll tell you later.

- Listen to her first. - Alright, let me tell you something.

Mom and I know that this pandemic is an ordeal for you.

As the head of the household, you must be the breadwinner of this family.

And I always thought you to be independent, right?

But you are wrong to think that only you get to struggle for us.

We know that you never asked for this.

- But we both want to keep our promises. - Yes.

We will always be there for you, especially in these difficult times.

That's right.

So..

Here it is. There, take a look.

What is this?

So, Bianca and I are going to make plenty of cakes...

...based on my recipes starting from tomorrow.

And I've already called all my friends.

They will help us with the materials...

- ...the packaging and marketing. - That's right.

- They will help with everything, honey. - Right.

Hold on a second, so..

We are going to...

- ...sell them. - To make a business.

- We're going to turn this into a business. - To get some money.

Honey...

...making a business isn't easy, you know? You need a start-up capitol.

I know, honey.

You don't have to worry, sweetheart.

You remember my limited edition handbag, don't you?

Many people like it, so don't worry.

As for the capitol, you don't have to worry about that.

That handbag could even sell more than we need.

Now, Bianca and I are going to struggle to support you.

Are you sure?

I've never been this sure of something before.

And we're doing it for us.

For us.

- Okay? - Oh, Mom.

No! Take a shower first. Go on.

- Just take a shower first. - You were from outside.

- Don't hug me yet. - Alright, at least let me..

- No way! - Later, take a shower first, Risyad.

Take a shower!

- Do you want me to help you, Mom. - No, I'm fine.

I can do it on my own. Don't worry.

What can't you do, Mom?

Telling you what to do, that's what I can't do.

Mom, somebody ordered more. Ten boxes!

- Seriously? - Yes.

- Ten boxes? - Yes!

Ten boxes.

It sells like hotcakes!

Just a second!

Mbok Nah!

You're back!
