Droplets of Night Creatures

14. Move over

Arka and Diana finally arrived at their home when the clock showed at one in the morning. Tired and angry who had mastered them while on the trip was gone with the presence of Aruna in their midst.

“ Kasian kaya Aruna hungry Ka..” Diana said as she had just set foot inside the house.

“ So the milk that was purchased was brewed now just let him not starve..,” proposed Arka.

Arka and Diana did stop at a mini market to buy Aruna needs such as daypers, milk and baby food.

“ You are right. Here I make a moment and You please take care of Aruna first yes Honey.” pinta Diana who.

arka.

Then Diana rushed to the kitchen to prepare the milk. Shortly afterwards Diana appeared back with a bottle of milk in her hand with a smile.

“ Well now this beautiful Mama's son is not thirsty anymore deh...,” said Diana as she pointed the milk bottle to the mouth of Aruna who greeted her greedily.

Seeing Aruna's behavior made Arka and Diana laugh happily. Arka sat down next to Diana while watching Aruna's behavior. A smile expands on her lips imagining the reaction of the mother when she sees Aruna later.

“ She is so funny ya Ka...” said Diana as she gently touched Aruna's cheek.

“ Yes Dear, beautiful is also rich You..,” said Arka without releasing her gaze from Aruna.

“ Unfortunately she is not Our Child Yes Ka..” Diana said in a raucous voice.

“ God willing he became Our Son because no one came to pick him up earlier.

Hearing Arka's words made Diana look over. He did not expect that Arka also wanted Aruna to be their child.

“ You are serious about taking care of this baby Ka...?” ask Diana.

“ Yes Dear. Seeing her and being close to Aruna fostered a strange but pleasant affection in my heart. This is very different from the usual affection present when seeing our nephew or our children who are the same age as Aruna. And I'm determined to fight for it. I will take care of all his adoption letters so that no one will be able to as they please admit it later.” said Arka firmly to make Diana touched.

“ Thank you Darling. I also do not want to lose Aruna, thank you.” said Diana while hugging Arka tightly.

“ Equally Dear. We fight together yuk let Aruna have a clear status in our small family.” said Arka while rubbing Diana's back gently.

Diana unraveled her embrace as Arka said of the family. He remembered both of Arka's parents.

“ How did your parents do Ka, did they get Aruna..?” ask Diana.

“ Don't worry about it Di. We can live independently and far from here. I was planning to move out of here and disappear for a moment from my family. We'll be back when it's all conducive. What do you think Darling..?” ask Arka.

“ I'm not a problem, am I an orphan raised in an orphanage. I'm ordinary myself, but you're different Ka. Are you able to get away from your family, let alone you say to wait for a conducive situation. That was not a moment Ka...,” said Diana reminded.

“ I can origin You stay by my side..,” said Arka firmly while staring at Diana softly.

“ I promise will always nemenin You Arka..,” said Diana steady to make Arka smile.

“ So sweet really my wife this..” said Arka while kissing Diana.

Diana laughed at Arka. But his laughter stopped as the little baby in front of him cried. Arka let go of her embrace and comforted Aruna. That night for the first time Arka and Diana felt a pair of parents for baby Aruna.

Arka made her speech. He invited Diana to emigrate from the house that had been their small palace. Diana supported her husband's decision. And now they are in a house located on the outskirts of Jakarta.

“ Yes. This house is empty and close to my office. Gapapa ya Darling, right while doang..,” said Arka not feeling good.

“ Yes already gapapa. Abis want how again...,” said Diana resigned.

The house that Arka chose was an old building that was not inhabited for long. Because it is offered at a cheap price and its location is not too far from the Arka office makes Arka interested and immediately buy it without Diana's knowledge.

When I saw the building for the first time, Diana's hair bristled a little. Especially when you put your foot in the house. Diana felt that there were a lot of eyes staring at her and that made Diana stop in the doorway.

But something strange happened to Aruna. If usually the baby will cry when entering a new place that is quite haunted, different from Aruna. The tiny baby in Diana's sling actually looked happy to soar with excitement. Her tiny hands stretched out as if she wanted to touch something before her and it made Diana both confused and scared.

“ Kok Aruna reaction gini anyway Ka..?” diana asked confusedly.

“ Nice dong Darling. That means Aruna is comfortable with this place and we do not need to worry about Aruna will be swanky or fussy like other babies who enter new places...,” said Arka while kissing Aruna's head with love.

“ So yes...,” said Diana shrieked.

“ Yes. Come on in and rest first. Kasian kan Aruna must also be very tired..,” said Arka while grabbing Aruna from Diana's sling and put her on the sofa.

Aruna laughed while making her unique voice. His eyes looked around the room as if he wanted to recognize his new surroundings. And again Aruna laughed as her eyes glanced at the corner of the room. Diana again close her body to Arka to make her husband laugh.

“ You are afraid Di, how to lose with Aruna..,” said Arka in between her laughter.

“ What the heck you..” said Diana was upset.

“ You are calm. I've asked Mr. Parmin to arrange a study at this house later tonight. People around

here too I know. So we can pray for this house as well as acquaintances with citizens.” said Arka.

“ Keep the treat how, I do not know the area here Ka. Who nganterin I shop for treats of our guests if You are busy pouring goods from the car. It's late afternoon, Ka, is it enough time to get ready.” said Diana panicked.

“ You are calm, Mr. Parmin and his wife who take care of all. You sit sweetly while nemenin Aruna..,’

sahut Arka while shuffling Diana's hair with anxiety.

“ Thank you, I am calm now.” Diana said with a smile.

A few hours later Arka and Diana were busy welcoming guests. Parmin and his wife seem to be able to prepare everything so that the host and guests feel comfortable.

As the study progressed Diana still held Aruna. The little baby seemed to sleep enjoying the flow of the verse

holy and dhikr are read simultaneously. Parmin's wife who was next to Diana also seemed amazed to see Aruna.

“ Pules really bobonya ya Bu...,” said Nurida.

“ Yes Nur. Thank God Aruna is not fussy at all since entering this house..,” said Diana with a smile.

“ That's a good sign Ma'am. This means that this house is suitable for the Mother family..,” Nurida said.

“ Aamiin. May We feel at home here and everything is fine later..,” said Diana while kissing the cheek of Aruna gently.

Nurida nodded and went to the kitchen to offer a treat after Parmin told her that the study was over.
