A speck of happiness for Adiba

Mitoni event

"Why are you calling umi baby, is there something you want?" ask Adiba softly.

"Umi was outside there was a grandmother who shouted and pointed at us," Adu Syila with a look of fear.

Gus Adnan took Syila into his arms. "Is that true, brother?"

"True Abi, and the grandmother also said we were her grandchildren, but our grandmother was only Ayu's grandmother, not the evil grandmother," Zayyan was upset.

"Have you two ever met that grandma?" asked Ning Kinan curiously. At the moment Zayyan was in Adiba's arms.

"The grandmother once came along with a woman claiming to be our mother, they both once invited us to leave, but we did not want to, we immediately ran but.." Zayyan did not continue his speech.

"Why dear, let's continue the story, right scared, here there are umi, Abi and others." Adiba stroked Zayyan's head gently.

"They've hit Brother and sister, we're afraid of them" Ady Zayyan with a trembling body.

Those who heard Zayyan's story could only sigh deeply, they never expected Ning Farah and her mother to be able to do such a thing.

"Now Brother and sister should take a nap, umi accompanied," persuaded Alifa so that his children can quickly forget the incident.

The two children just shook their heads. Syila remained in Gus Adnan's arms while Zayyan was carried by Gus Hanan, because Alifa could not carry them both with a very large stomach.

Adiba accompanies his children while the others, they return with three each for tomorrow's event.

The long-awaited day finally arrived, the day of Adiba's 7-month pregnancy event, the show was divided into 2. This morning the event was only attended by family, close friends, and ustadz and ustadzah. This morning event is a mitoni event can also be called a monthly 7 ceremony, which is divided into 9 stages.

Gus Adnan smiled at the wife who was preparing. "You don't dress up too much, baby, you're beautiful" Adnan said.

"Due mas, I just feel my body is not as good as it used to be, now I'm fat," said Alifa.

Gus Adnan hugged Adiba from behind and placed his head on his wife's shoulder. "You are pregnant baby, so it's only natural that if your stomach is big, you are also pregnant with twins, but you don't fear, I actually love you more, I love you more, there is no woman who can replace you in this world, here I am the lucky one to get a woman like you and when you get pregnant I see you are more beautiful baby," said Gus Adnan.

Adiba smiled at the words of his husband, his heart became calmer.

Every pregnant woman is very sensitive to her appearance.

Gus Adnan and Alifa went down, under there were many guests present. This morning's event is a mitoni event.

Mitoni is a seven-month gestation ceremony performed on the count of seven months of pregnancy. Mitoni is done by hoping to God the Almighty so that pregnancy is given smoothness and safety until delivery.

There are several stages that are carried out in the event of mitoni:

The first event was sungkeman. Pregnant women will do sungkeman to prospective fathers, so Adiba will be sungkeman to Gus Adnan. Then the two prospective parents sungkeman to both parents Gus Hanan. This event is done to ask for the blessing of the baby's mother's pregnancy and an expression of gratitude because both parents are always prospective mothers and fathers in waiting for the baby. Too bad this event both Adiba's parents can not attend, actually Adiba really expects his father and mother to accompany him, but again and again they ignore Adiba and make Adiba's heart back hurt, he said, even though they gave reasons.

The third event broke eggs. The eggs used are chicken eggs. This process is carried out by Gus Adnan as a prospective father by using a chicken egg that is pasted first on the forehead and stomach of prospective pregnant women, then the egg is broken with the aim that later labor runs smoothly.

The fourth event broke the storm. In this event janur is associated to the stomach of Adiba as a prospective pregnant woman and then Gus Adnan decided the janur. The goal is still the same as the egg rupture so that later labor can run well and smoothly.

Fifth event Brojolan and broken coconut. In this event, ivory coconuts will be carved by puppet figures, namely Kamajaya and Dewi Ratih.

Then the prospective father will break or slam the two ivory coconuts. The goal is to estimate the gender of the prospective child in the womb. If the broken one is Kamajaya, then it is expected that the born one is male, and if the broken one is Dewi Ratih, then the prospective baby is female. But this cannot be guaranteed, because we must still surrender everything only to Allah SWT. This is all done as a prayer.

Sixth event change fashion. The dressing ceremony is conducted after the candidate is flush and the series after.

At this event pregnant women will be worn seven fabrics consisting of various motifs. The fabric used is a rag. Seven fabrics symbolize a variety of positive things in yourself ranging from happiness, glory, simplicity, parental affection, independence and the presence of the little one can be fun for those around him.

The seventh show sells cendol and rujak. Symbolizes the spirit of parents in finding sustenance for children. This is also an expression of gratitude for pregnancy and happiness obtained by the future mother and father of the baby.

"Mas." Bisik Adiba in the ear of the husband.

"What's the matter, baby?" ask Gus Adnan quietly.

"I want to eat this." Alifa pointed to the voice in front of her with a pleading look.

"By honey, but later yes, after the end of this event, you can eat it as much as you want dear, but now we focus on serving buyers first," said Gus Adnan softly.

With an uninspired look Adiba nodded his head resignedly.

Gus Adnan who saw the look on his wife's face, smiled softly because Adiba is currently very adorable.

The eighth event is a tumpeng cut and a prayer together. Tumpeng itself consists of one large tumpeng surrounded by six small tumpengs. This is an expression of gratitude and the best prayer of both parents to welcome their children.

Mitoni is done to show gratitude and provide protection to candidates. This series of meaningful events reflects the rich culture and beliefs in Javanese society. That is a series of events that occur during the tradition of mitoni.

After the event was over, Adiba and Gus Adnan were lying on a bed, with Alifa leaning her head against the chest of the husband's field.

"Honey," call Gus Adnan.

"Why?" ask Alifa wonder.

"Are you…..
