Because of Being Married Too Late
Simple Perfect Flavor
Because of impromptu, Agung and Ega forgot to check the weather in Cappadocia in January. Fortunately, Ega is the type that is ready for an umbrella before it rains. So, he stuffed a pair of winter jackets into the suitcase.
“Please tell you to bring the red lingerie. Not used either. Just get the vitamins, we mix them into this coffee. Hopefully by taking this vitamin, we do not get the flu.”
Ega took the fly powder he kept well in the suitcase. Immediately, he mix it into the coffee that the smoke is still billowing.
Twenty minutes passed, Ega began to take off his jacket. Suddenly, her memory flashbacks at the time Agung gave her berry fruit juice.
“Mas, you're so nosy. It says vitamins, but the effect is like the juice you gave you that night.”
“Ha ha sorrykeun darling. Here, we make handsome-faced baby, like a native here.”
They are back together to make a baby. In the midst of their struggle, the Great's device rang nonstop. He became very upset, especially when he saw the name Bella.
The super expensive wire he immediately deactivated. Then return to bed, resume activities that had been delayed.
“So the call came in, but it wasn't picked up. Now I cannot be contacted. Damn boss, he's already dared to ignore me. He used to beg to be served. Now, he's the one selling expensive. Just watch out for you boss, wait for my revenge later.”
“I am so satisfied, thanks darling. Fast pregnant yes,” said Agung while peeling Ega. This activity they repeat every day.
Tomorrow, they will return to Indonesia. So today, they focus on walking. Also buy Turkish souvenirs.
“We ate mercimek soup first yes mas. I am starving.” The grand nodded in agreement.
Soup is warm when the air is cold, then which favor of your Lord do you deny?
After that, they began to look around for souvenirs. Stop them at a store.
“Can't I buy three caydanliknya, mother one, at home one, for Nisa also one. He likes to get it. But, mommy also . .”
“Why mother? I can’t hear clearly. You talk like people whisper.”
“Forget it mas! Not important.”
“Buy just whatever you want. Don't worry about the price. In Shaa Allah my money is enough to pay for it.”
“Serious mas?” Aggravate with a smile makes Ega so do not hesitate to buy souvenirs as he pleases.
“You guys buy trabzon tea. Buy cezve too, great to drink coffee while smoking.”
“Smoking kills you mas!”
“Well, put it this way. I promise I'll stop smoking if you're pregnant.”
“Let’s see.”
Ready, tickets too. So, they will return to Indonesia. Before Nayla gets home.

“Congratulations yes dear. Champion of poetry reading competition in Sulawesi, marvelous.”
“Iya. Thanks aunty, have diligently taught me.”
“Thank you yes. Since marrying you, Nayla changed drastically in a positive direction.”
“Not to thank. Teaching a child is a mother's trust. Hey, Nayla why cry baby?”
“Kangen mom, aunt. In the past if you managed to make mama happy, mama must masakin something.” Nayla until sobbing.
“Uhhh, darling. Later aunty masakin you. Aunty cooks food that is often in West Sulawesi. Your tongue must have gotten used to the food there?”
“Yes, the end of food in West Sulawesi is delicious all .”
“You are right baby. Later aunty masakin you one of the typical food there, but you promise not to cry again ya.”
“Iya aunt. Oh yeah aunt, teach me English too. Want to speak English like papa and aunt.”
“Let me help you!” Great followed Ega into the kitchen.
Ega began to concoct his food, shelling sweet corn and so on. “So he said he wanted to help, but just stay there.”
“Don't be wrong dear, from earlier I pray that your cooking is delicious.”
“Yeah my goodness, you are-just there. If you only help prayer, you do not need to come here. Sitting sweet while watching TV outside can also be. Dissipation to work while being noticed so.”
“I don’t know why, I really like to pay attention to you. But if you're uncomfortable, I'll go to the room. Bedurrr, make a lot yes dear.”
Refocused on cooking. With the help of a family of knives and pans, he managed to juggle corn and his friends into a simple meal of perfect flavor.
Ms. Nuri helped her serve the food on the table. Pun called Agung and Nayla to taste Ega's cuisine.
“This what aunt?”
“Binte dear, spent yes!”
“Emmm, delicious aunt. But dear, less is.”
“Lain times aunt will make a lot.”
“Don't listen to Nayla. Because Nayla's word is true.”
Ega smiled sweetly. In fact, one of the things that is encouraging for women is, when tasting the cuisine says it is delicious. Especially if it is spent, duhhh happy.
“How does it feel mas?”
“Emmm...corn flavor.”
“Yes is the taste of corn, it is made of corn mas.” Ega patted his eel.
“It tastes good, but it's better that cook.”
Spontaneous, Ega glared towards Agung. It was like she was pinching her husband's kidney.
Bu Nuri who was washing dishes held back her laughter, hearing her master so bluntly. Fortunately, Nayla did not understand the jokes of adults.
...****...
After the magrib prayer, Ega again taught Nayla to read the iqra. This time Agung participated, he sat beside Ega. For a long time he did not teach, the last time the value of teaching in High School.
It felt like sitting next to Ega. There is a sense of excitement too. The presence of Ega, brings so many colors in his life and Nayla.
Adzan isya. Like last night, great to the mosque. While the women in his house, pray berjacama’ah in his mini mushallah.
After returning from the mosque, Agung and Ega taught Nayla English.
“We start from memorizing vocabulary. In English, the vocabulary is like a bullet, while the learner is the gun. If you want easy shooting, must have a lot of bullets.”
“Your language height for Nayla, Ga. Let me explain it to Nayla. That means if you want to be able to speak English, you have to memorize many words in English. Like love, it means love.”
“Oh, so yes pa. Nayla often heard people say I love you, what does pa?” mean
“I love you,” said Agung while holding Ega's hand.
“Reply how?”
“I love you too,” reply Ega fast.
“I love you pa. I love you aunt.”
“I love you too dear.” Ega and Agung embrace Nayla.
