The door of the Wijaksono family home, entered by Rachel. This time it wasn't Bary or Ivana who brought him in, it was Nata himself. Martha welcomes Rachel back to this house. He immediately spread his arms, welcoming Rachel with a hug.
The warmth that for several years was not felt in this house, as if returning along with Rachel's return. They miss a while until the day has begun at night to just do the conversation.
Currently Nata and Rachel were in their room and enjoying time together. They both sat back and read the notebook Rachel had just written with her new story. They have a new page for the days ahead that is ready to be filled with stories full of happiness.
“Why is he sitting so far away from me? Here deketan?” nata asked as she saw Rachel leaning her body away on the left side of their bed.
There was too much space between her and Rachel.
“I don't want to deket-deket mas, body mas stink.” Said Rachel while pursing her lips and pursing her nose holding her breath.
“Hah, smell? I just took a shower. Stinking time?” Nata kissed his own body which he felt was already fragrant. He even uses cologne.
“Nknow. Check it yourself, I want it here.” Rachel was strong with her choice.
“From her perfume times huh?” Nata raised his armpits towards Rachel.
“Iiiyyuuuhhhh .. mas ikh!” one blow was given to Rachel in her arm.
“Sana far-away!” he pushed Nata away.
“Jeez, you're so fierce. Was I that you, huh?” I was shocked by Rachel's response.
“Cium by yourself.” Cynic Rachel while covering her nose. I don't know, he felt Nata's body odor was bothering him so much.
Nata complies to sniff his body. He said it didn't smell at all.
“Yes, I took another shower. Bentar yes.” Pamit Nata's.
Rachel simply nodded and kept her nose closed.
Once, twice to three times Nata took a shower. It also still got a smelly comment from Rachel. Nata began to despair, his body was already cold.
“Chel, this time I pure use soap same water doang. Try it here for a few seconds, who knows it doesn't smell.” Bujuk Nata's.
Rachel did not come closer, but sniffed first Nata's body odor.
“Wouldn't, still smell.” Reject Rachel.
“Hah? Still stinks?” Nata with his despair.
Rachel nodded confidently.
“How do dong go, I've had three showers, time still stinks?” the two-door refrigerator began to turn into a big baby that could whine.
“Yes, I'm there, I'm here. In the middle of the roll. Safe right?” rachel's great-grandson relaxed.
“Yaaahh, if that's the case, what if I want to nengokin my son?” Nata muttered sadly.
“Nengokin how?” Rachel was suddenly confused.
“Ya nengokin, from below.” With the corner of her eyes Nata pointed to her distended stomach and under Rachel's stomach.
“Astachaa... mas pervert!” he throws a roll at Nata.
“Ya is not a pervert Chel, but a necessity ...” Nata scratched his head which was not itchy. His head started to hurt.
“So, the photo for now I sleep here, mas there first.” Rachel pointed to her place and Nata's place alternately.
“Sampe when?” Nata with a clear face.
“Sampe I don't feel like it stinks.”
“Hah, can not be determined dong time?”
Rachel nodded for sure.
“Astachaa .. Fate..” muttered Nata with her sad face.
Rachel just exhaled her rough breath and chose to lay her body sideways to Nata. Pity also actually seeing Nata like that. But, he was always nauseous whenever he smelled the body odor of Nata who was nearby.
By force, Nata also laid his body sideways. He rubbed the empty space between him and Rachel. Nelangsa.
“Chel, I'm lonely loh.” Whine Nata while looking at Rachel's back.
“Patience, later if not nausea, I'm back.” Rachel Sahut.
“Hemh!” Nata could only exhale his coarse breath. It seems like he has to give up now.
Wait, suddenly he had an idea. Nata immediately got up and approached the dresser. He was looking for something in the drawer.
“There!” yells.
She sprayed Rachel's perfume all over her body. Now she could smell this feminine fragrance firmly attached to her body.
“Hahahaha .. Now he will not be able to refuse.” Inner Nata with pride.
Quickly he returned to bed. Little by little she moved her body closer to Rachel.
Grap! She hugged Rachel from behind.
“Gosh!” Rachel was shocked.
“Hehehehe .. Now it doesn't smell right? Fragrance me same as you.” Whisper Nata with his brilliant idea.
“Mas use my perfume?” Rachel clenched her nose, sniffing.
“Iyaa.. now I am safe, can deketan same you.” Nata tightened his embrace. He also squeezed his feet on Rachel's feet which he rubbed slowly.
“But I thought of that idea anyway?” rachel asked, not thinking.
“Yes, I'm smart. There must always be an idea. The power of kepepet.” Jumawa.
“Astyachaa, Smart Nata base Amran Wijaksono.” Ledek Rachel while chuckling.
“Hahahaha .. unique yesa.. later we also make a unique name for our child.”
“Still small, the movement is not yet strong.”
“Oh yes?” Nata.
“Iyaa.. she said the gestational age of four months it will already feel the movement of the baby. But I haven't noticed what kind of movement it is. Just like a fine swab from dalem.” Reveal Rachel.
“But he's fine right?” Nata was getting worried. He pulls out a blanket and covers himself with Rachel.
Inside the blankets her hands huddled, lifting little by little Rachel's dress.
“Mas want what?” Rachel was immediately alert as her skirt exposed Nata to the stomach.
“Mau check my son.” Bisik Nata's.
“Ngeck?” Rachel turned to Nata whom she still backs.
The man just nodded. Closing her eyes while gently rubbing Rachel's stomach.
“Hay, father's son. Do you want tengokin's father?” nata's voice buzzed in Rachel's ear.
“Mas ikh questions.” Rachel glared annoyed at Nata's snickering.
“Hehehehe .. your mother sensi yes nak.” Say Nata again.
“Tuk!” suddenly it was like something was touching Nata's palm from inside.
Rachel and Nata both fell silent from feeling the same way.
“Yes, I thought he was moving mas.” Rachel turned around.
“Slow-slow,” said Nata when Rachel moves too fast. He helped Rachel to sit back.
They both looked at Rachel's stomach that had started to bulge.
“I hold again can?” nata Pinta.
Rachel nodded slowly.
Nata began to rub Rachel's stomach back gently. And that movement was again felt by Rachel.
“She moves again!” exclaim Rachel.
“Where to?” nata protested for not feeling it.
“At here.” Rachel took Nata's hand to change position.
“Udah no movement.” Rachel.
“Nothing, I waitin.” Patiently Nata looked at and rubbed Rachel's stomach. There were many things he said in his heart.
Five, ten, fifteen to twenty minutes of movement were no longer there.
“What is he sleeping?” ask Nata.
“Maybe.” Rachel also hesitated. They do not move and still wait for the next fetal movement.
“Tuk.” He moved again a fine hour later.
“There's more!” nata said, this time he felt it.
“Maybe he's hungry so Chel moves. You want something no? Let me make.” Tawar Nata with sprightly.
“Mau sandwich aja.” Rachel Pinta.
“Okey, wait a minute, I make it first.”
“Mas can?”
“Must be able!” Nata quickly got up and got out of bed.
“You wait for benar.” Message again.
Rachel just nodded. He saw the spirit of Nata so great to take care of it. He was overwhelmed by the change in Nata's attitude.
In the kitchen, Nata is. She was making sandwiches for Rachel. Take vegetables from the refrigerator and fry the meat.
“What are you doing again?” ask Ivana who just came back from Brandon's room. She was with Martha in a wheelchair.
“I'm making sandwiches, like Rachel laper. You know, my son was moving. I think he wants to be a football player!” with a spatula in his hand, Nata spoke with vigor.
“Totally?” Ivana was surprised.
“Iyaaa .. I saw it twice and Rachel three times.” I am Nata with pride.
“But not finished you anything right Rachel his?” search for the worried Ivana.
“Ngak. It also says I stink. I took a shower.” Nata's face was drowning.
“Hahahaha ..” Ivana laughed with satisfaction at Nata's words.
“Yes already, you fast first until the cravings of Rachel ilang. Just be patient, just nine months of this.” Either meant to encourage or tease the obvious Ivana's words made Martha laugh inwardly.
“Not to suck. I have been fasting for two months. Don't make sprains.” Dengus Nata's.
“Hahahaha ..” Again, Ivana just laughed.
“Udah akh, I want to see Rachel. Mama I anter to the room first yes.” Tawar Ivana's.
“Ngaa...” Martha quickly shook her head.
“You want to see Rachel?” ask Ivana.
Martha nodded for sure.
“Ya already, wait Nata finished yes mah. Let him carry mamah. I'm going upstairs first. Ta, nitip mamah.” Ivana, who was impatient, wanted to see Rachel.
“So, I'll bring a plate.” Nata Protest.
“Bawain cake plate.” Nata's voice was slow by itself. He is not finished with Ivana who always moves quickly when Rachel's business.
In Rachel's room they were currently gathered. They were looking at Rachel's belly. There were three hands that alternately rubbed Rachel's stomach.
“My turn.” Pinta Ivana while shaking Nata's hand.
Nata had to give up.
“Hay baby, this is Mami Nana. What are you doing in Dalem?” ask Ivana gently.
There was no response at all and it was getting curious.
“He slept like. Though usually the baby is more likely to be active at night.” Ivana.
“Let me try.” Nata touches Rachel's stomach, while her mother is asked to eat a sandwich.
“Father's son. What again? Let's tos first.” this time Nata speaks. They waited for a while and still the fetus had not responded.
Martha turns on her phone to Rachel.
“Bby mamah hold?” he wrote, asking Rachel's permission.
“Bby mah.” Rachel grabbed Martha's trembling hand and touched it to her stomach.
Martha smiled, her tears dripping back in the corner of her more sensitive left eye. He closed his eyes for a moment, rubbing Rachel's stomach slowly and gently.
Ivana turns to smiling Nata and sees what Rachel and Martha are doing.
“Tuk!” suddenly the movement was felt again. Martha's eyes opened. He looked at Rachel with round eyes. He felt a real slow movement of the fetus in Rachel's stomach.
With unsymmetrical lips quiver it tries to speak.
“Cu-cu o-ma.” Her speech stammered.
Martha smiled with tears dripping down her cheeks.
Ivana, behind Martha, hugged her mother tightly.
“She knows, if mommy would love her very much.” Ivana lirih.
Martha nodded slowly with tears that she could not stop. She cried and hugged Rachel. I don't know why his heart was so warm when he felt that the fetus was responding to him.
Nata and Ivana were moved by what they saw.
The night atmosphere in the room was then blue. Only warmth filled the luxurious house of the Wijaksono family at this time.
“Pah, if papah is still there, papah will also be happy to see we will be blessed with grandchildren by our son.” Martha with gratitude.
Is it the ending that makes us smile?
