In-house.
Alif curled up in a thick blanket on his big bed and Humairah.
His wife came with a glass of warm honey tea for Alif who was still lethargic at home.
"Darling, wake up and bring honey tea for you" Humairah said, stroking Alif's face gently.
Alif opened his eyes lazily.
"Thank you, put it there and I'll have a drink. My head is dizzy, Humairah," replied Alif slowly.
Humairah smiled, he took a sitting position on the edge of the bed and began to give a soothing massage on the man's head.
"How good?" humairah asked after a few minutes of massaging her husband's head.
Alif nodded and opened his eyes, he grabbed the hands of Humairah until the massaging activity stopped.
"Thank you baby, this is the most comfortable massage I've ever felt."
Humairah smiled at him, he replied with a gentle kiss on the corner of the man's lips.
"How, still strong to the office or want to rest at home? Do not force if still lethargic, let me just go to the office today," Humairah bargained.
"No dear, I'm still strong.... You can't go to the office alone. I'm better now," replied Alif quickly as he woke up from his original position, he grabbed a glass containing honey tea made by his wife earlier on the nightstand and drank it up to the end.
"Is it better?"
Alif nodded.
"Mas Alif what if we go to the doctor again, I'm so worried about your current situation. Look at this for a long time you've always been lethargic in the morning."
"Do you mind having a husband who's getting sick now? Honey, don't leave me okay," said Alif, who hugged and buried his face in Humairah's stomach.
"Do you feel something very different from your body?"
Alif nodded, "I'm sick Humairah, what if when examined it turns out I am seriously ill? Are you gonna leave me?"
Humairah smiled amusedly to herself when she heard it.
"Darling not to talk like that, will we not always be together in joy and sorrow? In good health or in pain? Oh, I feel like you're doubting me, Alif."
Alif shook his head, "No Humairah, I'm sorry. I'm just afraid if I can't make you happy because of this pain, know I'm not okay now. I still vomit in obscurity, see my body become thin because it's hard to eat."
"Let's just say you're on a diet not to be too heavy when you're pushing me" Humairah joked.
Alif sat back down, he looked at Humairah who looked relaxed.
With a smile Humairah grabbed her husband's face giving a lot of kisses there, "How is it better? You'll heal by yourself later, be patient" Humairah said meaningfully.
"Darling, you're scaring me.... This happiness is too short if indeed I am seriously ill, I'm a lousy man Humairah."
Back Humairah silenced Alif's mouth with a long kiss generating atmosphere.
"Stop talking that no-no, to the office or just take a day off?"
Alif did not answer but hid his face in his wife's stomach spoiled.
"Mas Alif was amused."
"I just found out that belly fat is also useful, can be spoiled like this," said Alif while playing his face there.
Humairah laughs made, in addition to feeling amused also because of her husband's words that seemed to tickle. Humairah so impatiently waiting for tonight, a surprise that he will give as a gift of their first wedding anniversary.
"You want to say my stomach is fat?"
Alif just chuckled.
"If this stomach had its contents, it would have been happier.... Come soon dear, we are expecting you," Alif said to Humairah's stomach after kissing her several times.
"Of course, unfortunately, the child will always be a complement to the happiness of both parents including us. Hope you get pregnant soon Humairah, I really dream of being a papa. A lot of boys, that's fun."
"Just a boy? Don't want a girl, too?"
"That's not what I mean, I want two boys and two girls."
"Why is that?"
"For you not to have many rivals" Alif replied chuckling.
Humairah smiled hearing that.
"A lot of children, just imagining it makes me horrified to give birth many times," replied Humairah squeezing Alif's hair with anxiety.
"You don't want to?"
"Mas Alif, that's right..... Do you think getting pregnant and giving birth is easy to ask for a lot of children?"
"Just calm down, I'll help you later."
"What help?" pissed Humairah.
"Yes, help assist during childbirth, help take care of it later, I will also help massage your back if you vomit during pregnancy later, I will also help you, everything I help so you just relax just enjoy pregnancy and childbirth with a calm and happy mind, you want what I will buy later. Whatever it is, so I want you to conceive and bear many offspring for me later, I'm just two brothers and you're an only child. Our families should be crowded do not follow in the footsteps of our parents who are stingy children."
Sentence after sentence was so lightly out of the mouth of the man who was still playing his nose in the stomach of Humairah which was getting bigger with the age of pregnancy will enter the fourth month without Alif knowing.
Humairah smelled a smile, belly fat that Alif thought was already a fetus in it.
"The ground is insensitive" muttered Humairah squeezing her husband's hair again with anxiety.
Alif sat down again, and asked again.
"Darling you didn't feel any signs of pregnancy?"
Humairah.
"But after I remember that you didn't even have mens as long as we got back together for a few months, baby we had to check, you could've been pregnant without us knowing."
Alif was excited to say it. Humairah just grinned now he was confused himself how to answer it all, he thought Alif would not remember about his menstrual period which indeed never came again since they were together.
"Let's get up, let's go to the office see what time it's?" Get Humairah to lead her husband out of bed.
"Darling?"
Humairah continued to say that Alif was not suspicious, he had prepared a surprise for the night later not to fail prematurely.
"Come on, we have an important meeting today."
"Humairah, we should check later. You could be fat because you're pregnant not because you're eating."
Humairah silenced her husband's mouth with a friendly kiss.
"Well we'll check tomorrow, today we'll be busy. Calm down, Alif, if we are given the sustenance of children of course we will get it later, God willing we will have many offspring that enliven our family. I love you baby, I'll have a lot of boys and two girls for you, so prepare a lot of possessions to support and school them later."
"Well if you complain my body is fat because of the constant unloading of the engine!"
Humairah raised his eyes and then kissed again and again Alif's lips with anxiety.
"Indeed the motor can unload the engine," kekeh Alif.
"Mas Alif," whined Humairah.
"I can imagine how your clothing size will be xl later," Alif laughed.
"Yes, and I imagine you continue to be thin and not gallant anymore because of the constant vomiting like this" replied Humairah sharply.
