A Husband's Love

A Husband's Love
Pregnant Milk



Do not expect much of each other, for every human being has shortcomings and imperfections. But hope in the Lord, for He alone has perfection. Likewise with Sinta, trying to sincerely live life for what has been experienced, making it easier for him to live life.


The day passed, Sinta rose from her slump. Thanks to the friends who supported her, slowly Sinta was able to forget her sadness. Luckily this semester, the courses he brought, the lecturer is not Andre. so meetings with Andre can be avoided.


Her pregnancy is now in her second trimester or four months. His stomach is still slightly swollen and can be covered with loose clothing. It is certain that only her friends know Sinta is pregnant. Sinta has also started working at Bella's cafe. A lot of needs force him to work. Actually the money given by Andre is quite a lot but Sinta realizes the need after the birth must be more.


Sinta dropped out of college sooner, because today, she's just one course. With her companions, Sinta descended the stairs from the third floor. Cici took Sinta, Cici was afraid that Sinta would slip down the stairs. And the others tailed behind Sinta and Cici. They joke around with each other while walking. Sometimes they laugh together and smile.


"Sinta's heart!" cici said when it was on the second floor and walked to the next stairs.


"Yes, chatty," Sinta smiled back. Among her best friend Cici is the most chatty about Sinta's pregnancy.


"Cici chatty, because it does not want to happen what with your content Sinta, we can not wait to be aunty. Aren't you guys?" said Tini while fixing the Sinta bag she was carrying. He was a little overwhelmed carrying two bags, his bag and Sinta's bag. Since knowing Sinta is pregnant, her best friends pay more attention to Sinta. His friends answered yes at the same time.


"Yes donk, if I don't want to be called aunty, I want to be called mother. Mother Elsa," said Elsa again.


"And I also want to be called om not Auntie," said Ronal. Suddenly they laughed and saw Ronal who was holding a friendly Vina.


"As long as you don't wear a skirt or dress, you're definitely called om instead of Auntie" said Indah who made them laugh more. Vina pinched Beautiful hand slowly."


"My dear real boy yes" said Vina and increasingly tightened her hands in Ronal's arms. They were already near the stairs leading to the first floor. Cici and Sinta stopped their steps as they went down the stairs. From the bottom there are several students heading up and there is Andre most behind the student.


"Sin, today's work?" ask Elsa. Sinta just nodded. Sinta was able to see Andre among the students who climbed the stairs. Andre looked up. Seeing Sinta and her friends still standing. Sinta and her friends went down the stairs. Andre turned around and looked at Sinta from above. The hair in the ponytail shows a smooth white neck.


"You better stop working Sinta, pity your content. If only because of pregnant milk you have to work, the six of us can still take turns buying pregnant milk for you," said Vina and got a nod from her friends. Sinta simply shook her head and smiled in response to the attention of her best friend.


"Seeing you like this has to work hard Sinta, wants me to yank up the guy who made you like this," Tini said growled while practicing grinding things.


Andre was still standing in his place. Andre heard all the talk of Sinta and her best friend. Andre walked over quickly as Sinta disappeared from his sight. Not to the room but to the second floor balcony. Andre looked down. He could see Sinta with his friends walking and occasionally laughing towards the parking lot.


Sinta got on her bike, waved at her best friend and then ran her bike quite fast. Andre looked over from above. Andre's gaze was further obstructed by the tall tree. Inexplicably seeing Sinta not wearing a helmet and carrying the bike with a little tight made Andre worry. Afraid something might happen.


Andre went into his room. Leaning himself on the sofa with his eyes closed. Since her divorce from Sinta. This was the first time he had seen Sinta. A meeting that reminded him of the beginning of knowing Sinta until they divorced. Her heart throbbed with pain as she recalled Sinta crying sobbing in her arms. Andre took the phone out of his pants pocket. Pressing one by one the numbers he still memorized. Pressing the call button. The number could not be reached because Sinta had already blocked Andre's number.

Sinta took her motorcycle quickly to the cafe where she worked. Knowing Bella is a blessing for Sinta. Bella is very kind and understanding. Bella does not let Sinta work too hard and tired. After parking his motorbike, a special parking space for cafe employees. Sinta walked slowly towards the kitchen. The cafe is still empty of visitors.


After saying his regards, Sinta entered. Sarah and Lina are busy. Sinta immediately wiped the newly washed dishes and glasses Sarah. Two hours later, their work was almost complete.


Sinta sat on the floor, leaning against the wall with her legs straightened. The two comrades who saw Sinta left her like that. They understood, the pregnant woman was tired.


"Love" called a woman who had just entered the kitchen. Sinta.


"Tante.." call Rey when he sees Sinta at the door. Sinta smiled then approached Rey. Stroked her hair and pinched Rey's cheeks in a fit of anxiety.


"Siang mbak," said Sinta to Bella.


"Deck too, let's sit down" replied Bella. They sit on the sofa facing each other while Rey sits next to Sinta. The little boy has since been introduced to Sinta, directly close and compact with Sinta.


"Tante, when was the baby's sister born?" ask Rey. Since knowing there is a baby in Sinta's stomach, every meeting must ask when was born. Sinta smiled, then rubbed Rey's head.


"It's still a long time, baby, five months away" Sinta replied. Rey counted her fingers until five then bowed languidly.


"It's still a long time to donk aunt, can't it be another month?" ask Rey again, showing her one finger. Bella already shook her head at Rey's question. The four-year-old boy, could not wait to see baby Sinta.


"Would you like it, baby sister is born healthy?" sinta and Rey asked.


"Well, if you want a baby brother born healthy, his sister must be born five months more. It can't be faster than five months". Sinta explained as simply as possible, Rey nodded.


"Rey, ask to come along, because you can't believe that you haven't given birth to Sin," Bella said as she opened the food box.


"Come, we'll eat!" take Bella while offering a plate of rice and meat rendang to Sinta.


"It shouldn't be a bother" replied Sinta.


After lunch, Bella tells Sinta to go home. Sinta. At the end of this, Sinta felt easily tired. Before going to the house Sinta stopped at a supermarket near his house to buy pregnant milk. Sinta down the special shelf of pregnant milk. An SPG offered Sinta dairy products, Sinta looked at the packaging and saw the price then returned it back on the shelf.


"This is good for fetal brain development." The SPG again offered the milk to Sinta.


"Yes I know, but it's expensive. I'm looking for a cheaper one," Sinta refused and returned to the special shelf of pregnant milk.


A man turned towards Sinta's voice. That man is Andre. Andre is also at this supermarket. This morning, while making milk for Cindy, Andre saw that the stock of pregnant milk for Cindy was running out.


Andre saw Sinta, seen the woman put a box of milk into her basket. From the packaging alone, Andre knew that it was the cheapest pregnant milk. Andre looked at his own basket full of several boxes of milk with various flavors. His heart was back in pain. After Sinta turned to the other shelf. Andre to the shelf of pregnant milk and take some pregnant milk with various flavors, then Andre quickly to the cashier.


"Love," called Andre who had been standing in front of the convenience store. From outside Andre could observe Sinta's movements. Sinta looked over and was surprised to see Andre there.


Sinta kept stepping towards his bike. Andre followed.


"This is for you" Andre said as he thrust out a bag of groceries. Sinta glanced at Andre at a glance then turned on his bike and rewinded slightly. Without speaking and not accepting Andre's gift, Sinta runs his bike and leaves Andre.


Andre looked at Sinta's back that was getting away.
