Aara is Not Lara

Little Pie

“Your eyes are funny,” Rava chirps with his head down, peeking at Ara's eyes from the bottom gap that is not covered by Ara's palm.

“Do not mock!” ketus Ara sewot along with the finger that pinches Rava's waist. “Padahatan not crying night-night keeps sleeping, but why can swollen gini anyway?”

“You are too fond of his cry,” said Rava while directing his left hand to press Ara's head to lean against his right shoulder.

“Halah .. There were first crying fathers who the hell?”

“His lips sayin Mas gaffes continue to like.”

“Kan is indeed the father of Ara's son. Don't want that?”

“Naughty basics. I know that's not what you mean.” Tapping slowly on his wife's puffed cheeks, Rava was impatient to check the condition of their prospective child.

Lowering his gaze, Rava rubbed Ara's stomach while saying softly, “Bunda naughty Nak with Daddy.”

“His formula is Mr. complainant .. Mas, if later he does not have how?” Ara's amused smile turned stiff, her eyes saddened to remember the empty pregnancy she had experienced.

“Meanway? Who's she?” tanya Rava pretended not to know. As much as possible Rava tried to be calm so as not to make Ara more worried. The history of anxiety that Ara had suffered clearly had a big impact if Rava showed his anger.

“The outlook is indeed positive, but if the USG will be empty again how?”

“Believe we have our son here. Don't worry ya?”

“Hopefully yes ...”

‘Hopefully there is and later he kayak Mas Rava,’ continued Ara in heart. Smiling is forced because he has not dared to be too happy.

It was true that Ara had cried sobbing with bliss. But in the waiting hallway of a hospital, precisely after registering for a gynecological examination, the pleasure of Ara shriveled into fear if her pregnancy was not real.

"Mother Belvya?!"

Right after Ara finished muttering inwardly, her name was called to change to do an examination of the person before her.

“Wah .. We see here what is it?” the doctor's monologue moves the probe over Ara's abdomen.

“His fetal heart is already formed. It's been 6 weeks, Mom ... Can you see this dark circle? It's her baby pouch ..”

“Dok, why is it empty in that circle? I've seen on the internet there is a point or circle again that he said it was his fetal candidate,” asked Ara with a vibrating voice. His hands were squeezing each other nervously with Rava's hands.

Slowly wiping Ara's arm lying on top of the examination gurney, Rava's cold hand did not disturb Ara in the slightest. Instantly Rava muttered many prayers in his heart, hoping that their happiness that morning would not be uprooted and forcibly crushed.

“Don't worry too much ma'am, sir. This is still normal, can be checked again later in the 8th week. Or now we just check with transvaginal USG, because the results of this transvaginal USG will be clearer. So, how about Sir, Ma?”

“Cek only, Doc,” answered Rava steadily, his eyes glanced at Ara who also nodded his assent. Although it looks doubtful because Ara clearly knows what the transvaginal USG procedure is like, but he can't wait to see the results that hopefully different.

Not waiting for long, a special probe entered the lower core of Ara. Instantly the pain hit bit by bit as the probe that barged in. Ara's forehead inevitably frowned and her lower lip was bitten to resist the foreign taste.

While Rava who saw it was only able to rub Ara's cheek. Occasionally the back of Ara's hand was directed to her lips. It is worn long ago as a form of affection.

“Congratulations Sir, Ms. .. Can be seen inside the pouch on this left side, this is her fetus, her debay still looks faint. Usually at 6 weeks this eye organ has begun to form, the heartbeat can also be tried to listen. But for the condition of Belvya mother can be checked again later in the 8th week. Hopefully it will be clearer and his heart rate can be heard,” said the doctor explained. His hand pulled the probe slowly which was used to conduct the examination.

“The most important thing is always to take care of health, do not be easily tired what else stress and always keep your diet,” continued the Doctor imbued his explanation.

Faced with the Doctor in the opposite sitting position, Ara and Rava were still holding each other, both of them looking at each other for a moment with a big smile.

“Sorry Doc, the plan this afternoon we have to travel to City B. At first we had scheduled without knowing about this pregnancy. So it's risky not Doc if we keep going?" said Ara smoothly, asking the question that just bothered her.

“In fact in the early trimester of pregnancy try not to travel far first. The risk of fatigue can be fatal," said the doctor with a little pause, "but based on the examination was quite strong Mother's womb. My note is 20 to 30 minutes stretch .. If you may know this trip want to use what transportation?”

“Mobil.”

“Aircraft.”

Different answers were spoken simultaneously from the lips of Ara and Rava. Spontaneous Ara turned her head with nosediving eyebrows and narrowed eyes.

“Let's be fast until you get on a plane. Car can be carried by Mas.” employee

“Haduh ... Not going to tell you first,” grumbled Ara.

“Then the estimation is not up to 30 minutes the journey has arrived in City B Yes Sir, Ma'am. Possible minimizing the risk of fatigue."

"Yes, Doc. Just 20 minutes of air travel." Nod Rava allows.

"Here I have given vitamin booster content. Hopefully the journey is smooth and upon arrival there please immediately rest yes, Mom. If there will be stomach cramps and spots appear, immediately checked."

2 Weeks Later

The tiring journey back to City B was already passed 2 weeks ago. But the news of Ara's pregnancy is still only known to the couple. There was no desire to share the happy news with anyone else. The reason is because Ara had heard from the gathering of ghibah mothers at Bang Buna stalls if pamali exaggerated the news in early pregnancy.

“Mas in front there pull over first huh?” pinta Ara on Rava while pointing straight at the row of shops near the pedestrian bridge.

The two had just come from the hospital after a re-examination. Exactly as mentioned by the Doctor who examined Ara's pregnancy 2 weeks ago, right at the 8th week Ara and Rava managed to listen to their baby's heartbeat which was still as big as peanuts.

“Why, Dear?”

“It was later in front of the shophouse the motor dealer was stopped.”

“You want to buy a motor?” tanya Rava who made Ara immediately delicated.

“Gak. Ngidam wants nyium who guards the motor dealer,” cetus Ara origin.

“Only! No! Anyway can't!” reject Rava with sharp bulging eyes. Almost got his foot on the brake pedal.

“Kanda, Mas .. Ara wants grilled chicken across the street. But want to get there via the pedestrian bridge. Can ya?” putting up a conversation with the twinkle of the pleading eyes, Ara flicked her lips until the look of her face looked very adorable. Adorable to Rava.

“Here you want?” asked Rava while pulling his car right in front of the building shop next to the motorbike dealer shop. Although only a joke Ara, but Rava still jealous and do not like when he saw some young men who were milling around at the motorcycle dealer.

“Not our lips, but this is Ara who wants to. Can't if Ara wants to?”

“How can I refuse if you want.” Scrambling Ara's hair, Rava then pulled the handbrake and released the brake pedal that had been stepped quite deeply by her.

“But Ara wants to kiss the dealer Mas nolak tuh,” pout Ara with throbbing lips.

“Review yes if you ask for something weird like that.” Pinched Ara's cheek, Rava shook his head lightly.

“Ara won't ask for anything weird. Later if you want a strange means Lipai who want.”

Feeling weird with call ‘Lipai’?

Actually the term ‘Lipai’ comes from little pie which is shortened to lil pie. But Ara's tongue is often slipped, so the name Lipai which eventually became the name of the fetus in the womb after 2 weeks passed from the first time Rava called their prospective child little pie.

Although there was a small debate, but Rava inevitably had to give up if finally the little pie he called turned into Lipai. Even the lipai in Ara's mind was clearly a character named Levi Ackerman who is familiar with the name ‘Lipai’ from a popular anime series.
