Time has shown at three in the afternoon, but Yudha has not yet returned home even after Ashar Yudha has promised Yasmin will accompany her to Semarang. Yasmin who had prepared all the needs of her and her husband, she opened her phone again and dialed Yudha's number.
Yasmin
"Assalamualaikum, Mas, where why haven't you gone home?"
Yudha
"In a moment, honey, Mas's done this meeting just want to get in the car."
Yasmin
"Yes be careful, Assalamualaikum."
Yudha
"Getishalight."
Yasmin hung up her phone call while breathing a sigh of relief, apparently the husband did not forget his promise. Yasmin continued to tidy up the items she would bring to meet Afwa.
Half an hour later the car entered the courtyard, and Yudha got out of the car and headed straight for her room.
Chequelek
"Mas!" pekik Yasmin was shocked.
"I'm sorry, honey surprised you" Yudha said with a smile.
"Greetings to napa, forget it?" yasmin pretended to be upset.
"I'm sorry, honey, Mas forgot to hurry up because he didn't want Mas's angel to wait a long time," Yudha said as she clasped his wife's waist and landed a kiss on Yasmin's forehead.
"Bath first there, we must leave immediately, pity Kirana if you have to go through everything alone," said Yasmin who made Yudha let go of her embrace and saw Yasmin full of question marks.
"What do you mean?"
"Let's explain on the way, now Mas immediately take a shower and get ready!" yasmin said then immediately exited the room to the kitchen.
Yudha who was left in the room with questions filling her head could only be stunned, and tried to digest what had really happened, but she found no answer. Finally he took off his suit and shirt and went to the bathroom to clean himself up.
Currently they are on a plane to Semarang, while on the way Yasmin told about Dinda's attitude when on the phone about the departure of Afwa Satgas to Papua. Yudha was completely inexhaustible with his best friend's wife and his besisannya, if the time could be turned he would not approve of his wife's desire to bring Dinda and Raka closer, but all has already been done, he said, Yudha only hoped that Dinda could change soon. Kirana is, after all, his biological child and wife of Afwa, which means Kirana is already part of the great family of Dewantara.
Until Semarang, Yudha and Yasmin went straight to the hotel owned by DW group, only then they will go to the official house of Afwa.
"Our prayers used to keep eating our new food to the place of Afwa!" pinta Yasmin's.
"Mother told Afwa?"
"Already and mother has advised not to prepare anything, because mother has brought everything."
"Let's pray first!" take Yudha and take ablution.
After the prayer, Yasmin prepared the luggage that she would bring to the house of Afwa, including dinner that she had ordered at the hotel restaurant.
"Are you all ready, Bund?"
"Already"
"Then we leave now afraid of the night because tomorrow Afwa will leave!"
The middle-aged couple immediately left the hotel for Afwa's house. The car that Yudha and Yasmin were riding in arrived in front of the Afwa official house. Kirana who heard a car stop in front of her house immediately called her husband. Afwa who was in the room rushed after his wife to the guest room, and it was true that the two people he had been waiting for from yesterday got out of the car.
"Dad, Mother!" pekik Afwa immediately approached his parents.
"How are you, Afwa?" yudha asked after breaking her warm embrace to her eldest son.
"Thank God my good news, Dad," replied Afwa.
Afwa then turns to greet and hug the mother, after Kirana to greet Yudha and Yasmin. They then entered the house, although Yasmin had told her not to prepare anything but Kirana still prepared some snacks.
"Dad, please sit down!" Kirana.
"Thank you, Kiran, how are you?" yasmin asked who chose to sit next to her daughter-in-law.
"Thank God be healthy, Mother."
"But your face looks a bit pale" said Yasmin, who noticed Kirana's face was not bright and pale.
Hearing the words of his mother Afwa shifted his seat to be closer to his wife.
"There are things you want, Afwa send to father and mother."
"What a son, say, I see so much weight on your face!"
"Kirana is pregnant" Afwa said with a smile.
"Alhamdillah" said Yudha and Yasmin together.
"Does your father-in-law know this, Afwa?" ask Yudha.
"Not yet" replied Afwa as well as Kirana.
"Why?" ask Yasmin.
"Kiran was afraid, Bund, because our current state is exactly what Dinda's mother experienced when Kiran was pregnant."
"Well, then what are you afraid of?" yudha asked inexhaustibly but Yasmin understood the psychological state of Kirana.
Afwa then recounted when Kirana called Dinda's mother to inform her of her departure to Papua, actually Kiran wanted to say happy news about her pregnancy but because the attitude of Dinda's mother who seemed indifferent made Kiran afraid to say about her pregnancy. While Afwa tells the story of Yasmin stroking the back of her daughter-in-law to give strength.
"But after all, you should tell your parents this, Kiran, if they know the news of your pregnancy from someone else then it will hurt your parents' feelings" Yasmin advised.
"Yes, Bund, Kiran will tell the father and mother but not now" Kirana said.
"Saran dad, if you don't dare to tell your mother, you can tell your father, Raka would be happy to hear that. A few months ago my father met your father Raka at a birthday celebration of the granddaughter of one of our colleagues in TNI AD, Raka told me at a glance that she would be very happy if she could immediately fondle a grandchild, so I'm sure Raka would be happy to hear the news of your pregnancy, regardless of whether you will be left on long duty while you are pregnant. Raka is a soldier he can certainly understand your situation more than anyone," said Yudha who helped give his advice.
In the middle of their conversation, Kirana's phone reads emblazoned on the father's name there.
"Who, honey who's on the phone?" ask Afwa because Kirana won't pick up her phone.
"Dad," replied Kirana.
"Long the age of Raka, just talked about already called," continued Yudha.
Kirana then picks up a phone call from her father.
Kirana
Raka's Dad
"Waalaikumsalam, Kiran, how are you, son?"
Kirans
"Good news."
Raka's Dad
"Say your mother, Afwa is leaving tomorrow for duty."
Kirana
"Yes, father, pray Afwa mas yes father to always be given safety during the task there and can see his son born into the world."
Raka tried to digest her daughter's words after understanding, her lips immediately turned away a smile
Raka's Dad
"God, are you pregnant, son?"
Kirans
"Yes, Dad, pray Kiran's content is also always healthy!"
Raka's Dad
"Definitely, son, I will always pray for you, and I'm sorry I couldn't accompany you when your husband's task force was released, then during Whose duty will accompany you?"
Kirana
"What's wrong, father's prayer alone has meant so much to us. Later if Kiran is lonely, Kiran will go to grandma's house, or to Nana's mother's home, and later Afwa will find someone to accompany me."
Raka's Dad
"Thank God, but why didn't your mother tell you yesterday that you were pregnant?
Kirana
"Kiran was afraid, because when Kiran told me that Afwa wanted to go to Papua for six months, Mom was flat and ordinary, just plain, and my pregnancy was the same as my mother's when she left father's duty to Lebanon."
Rabbet
"Ah your mother always does, but take it easy if your mother does not care there is still a father, Kiara your grandfather and grandmother in Semarang, then I will tell them."
Kirana
"Thank you, dad. Oh yeah here is Yudha's father and Yasmin's mother, you want to talk?"
Raka's Dad
"Please your father-in-law!"
Kirana then handed her phone to Yudha, the two friends and besan talked for a while, then handed the phone back to Kirana with the state of the call that had been off.
"Dad Raka said what, Dad?" ask Kirana.
"Your father is just to say hello, and ask us to take good care of you" Yudha answered.
"And we inshaAllah will take good care of you, mother will find someone to accompany you here during Afwa duty," said Yasmin.
"Thank you, Bund has helped Afwa"
"Sama-sama, mother is happy to be able to help her children, things like this are the happiest thing for mother and father, we do not have any more children to take care of" said Yasmin.
"If you want to have another baby, I'm still ready for the Bund" Yudha said, smiling at Yasmin.
Afwa and Kirana laughed at the words of her father-in-law who did not know the place, indeed the mother of Yudha's father with mother Yasmin was bored.
"Oh yes you have not eaten, right, this mother bring food from the hotel restaurant and there is fruit and milk for supplies in the refrigerator" said Yasmin.
"Thank you, Bund is so troublesome like this," Kirana said.
"It's okay, honey. Afwa accompany your wife to eat first, father and mother have eaten earlier!" pinta Yasmin's.
"Yes, Bund" said Afwa, and asked his wife to eat in the dining room, while Yudha and Yasmin chatted in the living room.
"I don't think about your best friend, honey, can-can behave like that to his own daughter, mrsesel I used to support Dinda married Raka. My best friend was outside like a playboy, but his heart is like hello kitty if the same family and people he loves, Raka is also the type of loyal man who is difficult to get in today's times," said Yudha upset with Dinda's attitude as if still unable to accept Afwa and Kirana's marriage.
"Mas can not say that ah, everything has happened, this is God's destiny, we must see the good side. God must have a beautiful plan behind everything that happens in our children's homes. Mommy is sure everything will be fine, now how do we help Afwa keep Kirana while she is on duty," said Yasmin trying to muffle her husband's frustration.
Before long Afwa and Kirana had finished dinner and returned to the living room where Yudha and Yasmin were
"Have you finished eating?" ask Yasmin.
"Already, Mother, thank you the food is good," Kirana said with a smile.
"If it's good, later if you want to stay the restaurant phone, say the same mbak Ratih manager there, let it be sent here directly," said Yudha.
"Indeed who wants to pay, dad, the DW group restaurant is expensive, it can push my salary for a month," said Afwa upset.
"Basan stingy with his own wife," said Yudha.
"Already, you guys are basic, later the bill goes in the mother do not worry, anyway Kiran as long as Afwa does not exist, if you want anything to say the same mother!" pinta Yasmin's.
Hearing so enthusiastic the two mertuany a over her pregnancy made her heart ache, even her biological mother was not this attentive. His father-in-law is a ceo of a busy multinational company not playing, so is his mother-in-law but willing to spend time with him in difficult times. Kirana's eyes glazed over, she was deeply moved by her in-laws' attitude.
"Why is it crying?" ask Yasmin astonished.
"May hug, Mommy?" kirana asked with a hoarse voice and eyes that had already condensed.
"Of course you can, here hug Mother!" pinta Yasmin then spread out her hands to have Kiran embrace her.
Kirana immediately rushed into Yasmin's embrace with a sob, all mixed feelings united in her heart. The mother-in-law who loved him like her own daughter, even her birth mother had never been this warm since she married Afwa.
"Have not cried, tomorrow when the release of the Task Force will be swollen, you know, embarrassed to see the family of other soldiers!" pinta Yasmin after breaking Kirana's embrace.
"Sorry, Mother Kiran is a baper."
"It's okay, you are now a soldier's wife, must be strong, stoic and patient, we are all with you, Kiran. Now rest tomorrow you must wake up in the morning!"
Afwa then brought his wife to rest, while Yudha and Yasmin asked Afwa to stay at the official house so that tomorrow did not go back and forth from the hotel to the Afwa house.
