The weather greeted the new day. Beautiful blue sky, perfectly stretched over the shelter of the residents of the bullala. Give a new spirit that fills the heart with taste.
Ardi went to the office as usual. He had said goodbye to Aini who was lazy today to leave the room. Ardi also clearly advised Niken to immediately tell Ardi, if something happens to Aini.
"Where's Aini?" Niken asked, as Ardi was about to say goodbye to her.
"In the room, Ma. He said he was lazy to get out of the room." Honestly Ardi while greeting his mother.
"Yes, let Mama go to the room."
"Yes, Ma."
"Oh yeah, you haven't told Mama about yesterday. Why did you suddenly come home? Something happened to Aini?"
Ardi recalled the incident yesterday, when his mother was so surprised to find herself at home during work hours.
The Flashback
"The ardi? You're home yet?" Niken asked, when she saw Ardi sitting with Aini by the pool.
Niken was actually suspicious when he saw Dika's car parked in front. He knows, Ardi had a few meetings today. So, he thought, there's a file Ardi left at home. But apparently, Ardi instead sat back with Aini by the pool.
Ardi and Aini looked at each other.
"Yes, Ma." Relax Ardi while blinking her eyelids a few times, to give the code to her mother.
Niken who understood Ardi's attitude, immediately replied casually.
"Yaudah, Mama go inside first. Mama thought, Dika's coming."
"Yes Ma. Ardi's car was taken by Angga this morning. So, Ardi's got Dika's car, Ma."
"Yes." Yeah."
Niken then went back into the house. He was immediately greeted by Rama who had just entered, after putting something in his room.
"Ardi's coming home, Ma?" Ask Rama to make sure.
"Yes, Pa."
"Based on the boy, still not sincerely far from Aini." Cibir Rama's.
"I guess something happened to Aini, Pa. Ardi gave the code to Mama."
"Here's why?"
"Mama doesn't know either."
"Try asking Inah or Reno!" Rama's Proposition.
Niken's voice immediately echoed throughout the house.
"Well! This is!" Call Niken.
"This is out, Ma. Ardi asked for something for Aini." Sahut Ardi from the back garden.
Inah was out buying Aini's request lotis. He left alone on a motorbike because Reno still had not returned from taking Erna home.
Niken and Rama looked at each other immediately.
"Yes." Yeah." Sahut Niken a little hard to answer Ardi.
"Reno may be dropping off Inah, Ma." Chirp Rama.
"Yes, it's gonna be, Pa."
Rama nodded to approve Niken's words. Rama then headed for the family room. Niken, heading to the kitchen to prepare lunch.
"Mama's gonna cook, Mas. I helped you, Mom." Aini said, after hearing something from the kitchen.
"No! You can't do anything first! Homework, let Inah same mama handle." Reply Ardi firmly.
"But I want to help you, Mom." Aini Whine.
"You forgot what Gilang said?"
"You're just helping cook, Mom."
"You're cooking the same thing as Erna?"
"Yes, Mas. But,,"
"Come, Honey! Don't argue! I don't want anything bad to happen to you." Persuade Ardi.
Ardi's heart was really anxious at this moment. He still does not know the condition of his beloved wife clearly. So, Ardi clearly forbade Aini to do many things, so that the thing that happened earlier, did not happen again.
Aini looked closely at her husband's face. He could clearly see Ardi's anxious feelings from his facial expression. He finally smiled a little, then nodded at Ardi.
Ardi also returned Aini's smile with great relief. And immediately, landed a kiss on Aini's forehead.
Not long after, Inah came home with Aini's order. Aini was so enthusiastic about receiving the lotis that Inah brought. He even invited the whole house to eat with him. Including Inah too.
Ardi did not return to the office to make sure Aini was okay. And because Ardi follows Aini at all times, making Niken and Rama difficult to question Ardi about Aini's condition.
Inah who had also been the target of Niken's interrogation, was also a little busy with her homework. While Reno, asked Ardi to help Dika in the office. Because indeed, Ardi is actually doing a lot of work.
After Maghrib, Ardi received a call in the back garden. And Niken saw the opportunity.
"Don't go in first! Mama wants to ask." Prevent Niken, when Ardi wants to go back into the house after finishing the phone call.
"Why, Ma?"
"Here's what? Why did you come home so suddenly? Nothing is bad, right?"
"Oh, that. Aini was,,"
Suddenly, Aini's voice echoed from the doorway. The mother and son looked over immediately.
"Mas, oh, there's a mama as well." Say Aini clumsy.
"Why, Honey?" Ask Ardi for attention.
"That's Kenzo asking for a walk, Mas." Honest Aini.
Ardi looked at his mother immediately. "Later on, Ma."
"Yes." Yeah." Niken replied while nodding and smiling understandably.
"Finish it, Mom!" Pinta Aini as Ardi walks towards her.
"Udah, just calm down! Not a rushed thing. Yuk!" Sahut Ardi while embracing Aini.
Aini looked at Ardi in confusion. He even forgot to say hello to Niken who was still curious about Ardi's story.
Ardi then meets Kenzo who asks to take a walk together. He persuaded Kenzo to take a walk the next day. Because he still does not know, how clear Aini condition. Since then, he has not had time to contact Ratna to ask about the situation of Aini first while pregnant with Umar.
Kenzo finally approves his father's appeal. Aini also understood with the intention of Ardi who persuaded Kenzo to take a walk in another day.
And until night, Niken hasn't been able to question Ardi. She also went into her room to rest. Niken is not up to the heart if it has to interfere with the rest of Inah.
Flashback Off
"But, Mama don't tell Umar Kenzo, yeah!" Pinta Ardi is sure.
"What's wrong?" Ask Niken to be curious.
"It was a sudden faint yesterday, Ma."
"Maybe exhausted. What did he do?"
"That's what Ardi still doesn't know for sure, Ma."
"You mean?"
"Erna was here yesterday?"
"Yes. But when Aini was about to bake a cake, Aini suddenly got tired and fainted."
"Deliver?"
"Yesterday Gilang directly here, but can't confirm it yet, Ma. Interim diagnosis, due to a history of kidney donors Aini and Aini are now pregnant."
Niken speechless.
"I haven't had time to ask Ratna, how was Aini's condition when Umar was pregnant." Imbuh Ardi's.
"Then, what's the situation now?"
"Yes, Mama saw it for herself, right? Aini looks fine. But we don't know the exact conditions. Later Ardi will try to ask Ratna when in the office. Gilang also waiting for news from Ardi because."
"This knows Gilang's diagnosis?"
Ardi shakes. "Don't tell, Ma. I'm afraid Aini's gonna be thinking."
"What can't Aini know?" Sela Rama suddenly, who had just come home from the morning streets.
"What did you ask, Mom? Ardi has to go to the office, Pa." Reply Ardi casually.
Rama looked at his wife. Niken then nodded in understanding.
"If there's anything, tell Ardi yes, Ma!" Pinta Ardi grabbed her mother's right hand to say goodbye.
"Yes. Be careful!"
"Yes, Ma. Ardi's leaving, yeah, Pa." Pamit Ardi's.
"Yes. Be careful!" Rama answered, welcoming his son's hand to say goodbye.
Ardi immediately stepped foot towards the front door. Angga had been waiting for him since.
"Why is this, Ma?" Rama asked, after Ardi was lost behind the door.
"Yesterday suddenly fainted, Pa."
"Fainting is obviously sudden, Ma. Where's the fainting planned?"
"Suddenly because Aini did nothing, Pa. Suddenly tiredness trus fainted."
"Lha that, exhausted."
"People can get tired of talking what the hell, Pa?"
"What, huh?"
Niken then told a little story Ardi earlier to Rama. Rama finally understood Ardi's worries.
Niken then went to Aini's room to accompany her. While Rama, cleaning himself in the room, after a morning walk.
...****************...
At ten in the morning, Ardi had just finished a meeting with some of his employees. He remembered his plan to ask Ratna about Aini's situation first.
"Assalamu'alaikum, Ma'am." Sapa Ardi, when the phone call is connected.
"Yes, wa'alaikumussalam. How are you, Di?" Sahut Ratna on the other end of the phone.
"Alhamdulillah well, Ma'am. What kind of family is Ratna?"
"Alhamdulillah good. Anini?"
"Alhamdulillah, Ma'am."
"Thank God. What was? Tumben's on the phone?"
"Me, let's ask you a little bit about Aini, Ma'am."
"Lhoh? Where is aini? He's not leaving anymore, is he?"
"It's at home, Ma'am. Same papa, same mama."
"Continue?"
"About Aini's condition, Ma'am."
Ratna silence.
"Was Umar pregnant, Aini ever suddenly fainted? For no apparent reason."
"Is this A pain, Di?"
"Ardi doesn't know yet, Ma'am. Only, yesterday Aini suddenly fainted at home. Though, he was just chatting with Erna."
"Then?"
"According to Gilang, it's the effect of the kidney donor he lived first. And again, now she's pregnant. Was Aini ever like that when she was pregnant with Umar, Ma'am?"
"Aren't you asking Aini directly?"
"Ardi is afraid, Aini is thinking, Ma'am. So Ardi hasn't asked her."
Ratna was silent again.
"I was horrified from Aini and almarhumah mother first, indeed during Umar's pregnancy, Aini was easily exhausted. But, if you pass out for no apparent reason, it's not like."
Ardi was silent.
"Or maybe, that was also the effect of the second donor yesterday?"
Ardi was silent. He tried to think carefully about what Ratna was saying.
"If my advice, tell Aini what it is! Who clearly knew the condition of his body, obviously he himself. That way, you can make the best decision for your family as well, if you know each other, for each other."
"It's okay if Aini thinks about it. Because he will be more careful again, if indeed his condition is not good. Didn't you?" Imbuh Ratna's.
Ardi sighed slowly. What Ratna said has a point. It was all about Aini's body condition. And the one who clearly knew how her body was, was clearly Aini herself.
"Yes, Mommy." Reply Ardi relieved.
"I'll leave Aini and Umar to you. Please keep them away from me! Do not hesitate to say anything to Aini or Umar, so that everything can be better!" Ratna's message with a slightly vibrating tone.
"Of course, Ma'am. I'll take care of them. And thanks for the advice." Sincere Ardi more relieved.
"Yes. I'll close first, yeah! There's a guest like that."
"Oh, yes, Ma'am. Greetings to Imron, Rafi and Deni."
"Let me tell you. Greetings to Mr. Rama, Miss Niken and Kenzo."
"Yes, Mommy."
"Assalamu'alaikum."
"Wa'alaikumussalam."
Ardi immediately terminated his phone call. He rushed to his desk. And immediately snatched his work coat and bag.
"Re-schedule meeting later this afternoon! I need to see Gilang immediately." Said Ardi, after arriving at Dika's work room.
"Good, sir." Understand Dika.
Ardi left the office immediately. And do not forget, immediately contact Gilang to make an appointment to check the condition of Aini further.
Honesty and openness become one of the important things in a relationship. They become the foundation that will strengthen the relationship to be stronger and can survive even a big storm.
