Beloved Student Religious Teacher

S2. Cravings

Back to Hanan.

Hanan arrived at his office not far from the Zahra campus. As he got down he immediately walked quickly and headed to the back of the post. Officer Pon who saw him was confused and immediately met him.

"Sir Hanan, why father?"

Hanan continued to be nauseous and afterwards in a stand in the post.

"This sir drink first. You sick?"

Hanan took out the medicine in his pocket and drank it.

"That's how."

"I'm taking you inside sir?"

"No need to thank you sir. I've been sniffing."

"Thank you very much sir."

"Yes sir."

Hanan goes into his office and is welcomed by his friend Gavin who happens to have just entered with him.

"Morning Nan. Already healthy?"

"Alhamdulillah is silent."

They took the elevator and then entered their respective rooms. Hanan immediately opened his laptop and some files that had been piled up on his desk. Suddenly his stomach sounded like a starving man. Without a second thought he called Gavin.

"Vin Hallo. To my room for a minute."

That's all he said. Gavin who had just sat down had to get back up and head to Hanan's room.

"What is nan. Just sat down for a second already told to come here."

"Buy ice doger there same soto chicken."

"You haven't had breakfast?"

"Udah, but lately it's been hungry."

"Don't forget the bonus."

"Yes-yes, there's a sneak."

Gavin immediately stepped out and Hanan again struggled on his files. It did not take long Gavin brought two ice dogers and two servings of chicken soto.

Gavin put down the bag and then turned to the kitchen in Hanan's room and took 4 bowls.

"Well, I think it's really big. Thanks Vin."

"Tumben very sir boss ask to buy food. Mr boss don't have a wife at home?"

"So early in the morning I ate."

"Ngidam ya boss."

"Hm.. Amynn.."

After the soto was poured Hanan directly ate it. After that he let the soto place and left it.

"Vin, clean it at once wash. I give you the bonus."

"Ready boss."

Gavin painstakingly cleaned it up and returned to his room again.

After returning from the campus, Zahra had a guest who was none other than Mama Hana.

"Mama, when's mama here?"

"It wasn't long ago."

Zahra was sitting next to her mother. And his nose smelled something stinging. She immediately felt her nauseous stomach and then she headed straight to the bathroom. Mama Hana panicked and then caught up with him.

"R.. Zahras.. Ra's.. Why are you, son?..Ra's.."

Mama Hana bangs on the bathroom door and soon Zahra comes out with her nose closed.

"That smells like mah?"

"That's the smell of durian, time forgot si. It used to be durian season again you love to eat."

"I don't think so first. It smells, it stings.. Hueekk.."

Zahra returned to the bathroom, and without a second thought Mama Hana put the durian out of the house

"Have son, already. You can get out now."

Zahra came out weakly. Mama Hana sat him in a nearby chair and gave him a drink. His eyes were turned to the cardboard containing milk of pregnant women. Mama Hana took him.

"You pregnant Ra?"

Zahra nodded. Mama Hana put down the milk and immediately hugged Zahra.

"Alhamdulillah.. Happy darling. If gini mama should come here often. How many weeks?"

"Udah 4 weeks mah."

"You know since when? Then why don't you tell mom and dad?"

"Sorry mah before, Zahra knew since 5 days ago, and the plan Zahra wanted to tell you after the age of 3 months, the womb, because Zahra was once in the same willi-wanti as the late mama to not mention the same people first."

"Yes son, you know, but it's for other than family. Your family must know first about your pregnancy so that someone takes care of you and make healthy food for you."

"Yes, sorry."

Mama Hana sighed and then stroked her shoulders.

"Yes, mama will often stay here and come to visit. It just so happens that you brought oranges."

"Orange? Better not first, denger fruit has made a mother."

"But you have to eat a lot of fruits and vegetables so that the baby is healthy."

"Let Hanan be the representative."

"But the baby is in your stomach, where it can be represented dear."

"Sorry, don't ya."

"Yes, my mom can't make it. But you have to eat fruits and vegetables."

"Yes, um."

"Yes, you better rest. Mama's coming home first, mama's coming here again tomorrow."

*****

In the afternoon, Zahra waited in the living room while eating a snack. Hanan is not welcome and Zahra is just busy watching television while laughing. Hanan who saw him immediately sat beside him.

"Eh.. I'm home." Zahra kissed Hanan's hand.

"Bath in there, Zahra wants to make coffee."

"Yes." Yeah."

Hanan got out of his seat and Zahra made coffee for him. After that he went to the upper room.

"Mommy, you came here with durian as an orange."

"Orange with durian. Where's?"

"Below me."

"Mas wants the orange. Where's oranges?"

"In the fridge, I guess."

Hanan went downstairs and then picked up some oranges. Zahra who noticed it immediately closed her nose.

"Mas want to eat oranges better outside yeah, not here."

"Well, I want to eat it here."

"Yes, I slept downstairs tonight."

"Yes-yes."

Hanan relented and headed to the television room. Zahra herself chose to take a shower.

After Hanan finished eating the fruit, he returned to the room. Since Zahra was pregnant, her nose was very sensitive to odors and upon Hanan's arrival, she immediately closed her nose.

"Mas don't come in!"

"Why again?"

"Those orange smell's out."

"No, not really."

Now Zahra couldn't take it anymore and then went into the bathroom. Hanan who saw him panicked and rushed to follow him to the bathroom, but the door was immediately locked.

"Mas, let it out. I think her morning sickness moved on to me so there's a slight smell that if I don't like it, I'm nauseous."

Hanan understood and nodded naggingly outside the bathroom.

"Yes, I slept in the next room. If there's anything wakein mas."

After Hanan left, Zahra went out and decided to sleep as well as Hanan.

*****

At 12 pm, Hanan felt his body shake and finally he woke up.

"Bag.."

"Hm.. Why?"

Zahra fell silent and Hanan sat down and rubbed his eyes. He grabbed the phone on the desk and checked the clock.

"Why is Malem awake?"

"Egg crust."

Hanan gaped and looked back at the clock on his phone and rubbed his face rough.

"This hour where there is a crust of eggs that open Zahra."

"But tell him not to me dong. Baby is.."

Hanan let out a long sigh and stroked Zahra's stomach.

"The baby wants it? You are very naughty, son, do not make mama sick with your request. Papa's gonna find her tonight. You wait here."

"I'll wait in the family room."

"Yes already."

Hanan was out on his motorbike. Mr. Johan who was asleep in the post, immediately woke up when someone knocked on his door.

"Sir Johan, open the door."

"Where are you going in the middle of the night?"

"I want to find the crust, sir. But roughly where it sells."

"Miss Zahra cravings Sir. Don't go far. I can do it, sir."

"Sir Johan can?"

"Yes sir can."

"Alhamdulillah hi rabbil'alamin. Let's make sir. Just in the back garden. You take the roof in the kitchen, I prepare the utensils."

"Yes, sir."

"Thank you, Johan, I'll give you a bonus tomorrow at payday."

"No need sir. This is also for Mrs Zahra, I also do not feel good if you have to go out in the middle of the night to find crusts of eggs."

"Yes, I got the bike first."

After keeping his motorbike, he went back inside his house. Zahra was confused by Hanan's arrival.

"Well, how come back?"

"Sir Johan wants to make it. Johan can say. We're doing it in the back garden."

"Thank God, I'm coming back."

"Don't, the wind that night wasn't good."

"Issha.."

"Pake clothes that are slashed, then permission."

Zahra complied and swiftly she put on a sock jacket and gloves to obey her husband.

And that night Zahra ate the crust of eggs made by Mr. Johan until satisfied. After that he left and headed to the room to get back to rest.
