New Life



Three pregnancy test kits with different brands, daei the cheapest price, medium and expensive lined up on the dressing table in Rahma's room. He still stared in disbelief. Fajr on Friday, Rahma decided to wear the device she had bought a few days ago.


"Alhamdulillah O Allah, thank You for Your trust" sobbed when Rahma sounded bitter. Finally something long awaited that God entrusts to him.


In the womb Rahma is now growing a new life. The life that will bring Rahma to a new world, where she will become a woman with the title of mother. What a wonderful gift God has had in his life.


Her happiness grew even more after breakfast before her departure for school, a notification of an incoming message on her phone signifies it was a message from her husband.


Rahma's enthusiasm to open the message is directly proportional to the content of the message that tells if the husband will return to Garut directly after serving out of town in recent days.


It's been three weeks Anggara hasn't come home. Since their last conversation about Anggara wanting to have children immediately their communication intensity has decreased. Anggara even rarely come home on the grounds of outside service.


Anggara's change of attitude clearly became something that weighed on his mind. For Rahma the situation that befalls him at this time of course there is a cause for consequence. And she thought that if Anggara's attitude changes towards her because she could not give what her husband expected, she immediately became pregnant.


How happy was Rahma when she waited and prayed, God granted her. Gratitude does not cease to be pronounced through his mouth and heart. How good God is, when he is about to give up again, Allah presents a matchless gift.


"Alhamdulillah, be careful on the road. I'm waiting for you, Fii Amanillah" type Rahma in her chat room with her husband.


Rahma decided to go to school, with a happy heart seen from a cheerful face with sparkling eyes and a smile that was always on her lips. Rahma drove her beloved matic motor slowly and carefully to her place of service and sharing knowledge. In his womb there is a new life candidate that must be maintained. Her heart was blossoming, impatiently waiting for the twilight. The return of the husband becomes the thing that awaited, want to immediately give happy news about her pregnancy.


While in another part of town precisely in a fancy restaurant a girl seemed to be waiting for someone's presence. He several times glanced at the luxurious watch wrapped around his left hand. The long black hair beautifully unraveled past her shoulders, she was playing the phone she had been holding since. Hope there's news from the person he's been waiting for almost an hour.


"Mas, I'm here" at last the girl's wait was not in vain, someone long awaited was now walking towards her.


"Mas, it's so long. I've been waiting a long time for you." the girl sulked in her long voice.


"What day have you forgotten?" replied the man sitting opposite her, looking as if the girl was thinking about the question she had heard.


"Hah, sorry Mas I don't want that Mas Tama should Friday first" screeches with a sweet face made as puffy as possible, while Tama just rolled his eyes lazy.


"I've ordered Mas Tama's favorite food, said mama Mas Tama most like meat soto"


Tasya, the girl who waited a long time Tama also told me without awkward about any information about Tama obtained from her prospective in-laws. Yes, since Mama Tama directly asked about her willingness to try close to Tama, since then she has been a candidate for Tama's wife. Though Tama did not know about the plan of the Mother.


Tasya Diara is the son of one of his friends Papanya Tama, since Tama Elementary School they have known each other because they live next door. Tasya at that time was still in school in kindergarten, because Mami Tasya often visited the house of the Tama family so they were familiar and became playmates.


Entering elementary school Tasya's father had to move tasks to another city, as a result they separated. And now the Universe seems to support, when both Tama parents expect their only son to immediately have a family, the Tasya family returned and settled in Jakarta.


Tasya has grown into a beautiful and smart adult girl. Her cheerful and easy-to-mix character makes Mama Tama feel good about the girl, and she oun intends to make Tasya and Tama close, who knows a match.


But it turns out that Tasya and his family welcomed with enthusiasm the intention of Mama Tama. Since then Tasya has even adopted Tama as her future husband. He did not even hesitate to approach Tama, even though they had long since separated. Unlike Tama who always tries to keep a safe distance with the girl.


Not yet Tasya got a response from Tama, a waiter came by bringing the menu according to the ordered.


"Good fun, Ma'am, Mas" said the waiter after arranging all the menus on the table.


"Thank you" Tasya replied with a cheerful smile, in contrast to Tama who did not respond at all and immediately prepared to execute the food in front of him without speaking.


"Don't you like it?" Tasya again started the conversation, after a few minutes he only noticed Tama who was focused on her food.


"Heumm" Tama replied briefly and without turning his head.


"Eumm...."Tasya seems to run out of words to establish communication with Tama, since their matchmaking discourse Tama increasingly clear distance with him.


"Mas, your mama said we were fiancee first when in fact I was the same my parents wanted us to get married immediately" Tasya finally found the topic of conversation, Tama who heard that stopped her eating activities, I don't know what she was thinking.


Tama took a deep breath, as if letting out something that stifled her chest. Until now, he has not given a definite answer his willingness to be betrothed to the mother. But hearing what the girl before him said made him able to draw conclusions, if he could not refuse.


"Are you sure you're gonna marry me?" suddenly the sentence just slid from Tama's lips, she stared fixedly at Tasya waiting for the answer to what the girl would give.


"Of course, it's not hard for me to fall in love with you. Since childhood we have been together, if we used to be together as playmates, well now we are together as a couple" replied the girl steadily, there is no doubt in her eyes when answering Tama's question.


There were no words Tama could say to respond to the girl's answer, she took a deep breath and resumed eating. He could not imagine what kind of new life he would live if he married a woman who had no sense of love growing in his heart for that woman.
