Chapter 31

Kinza Irsyania Malik POV

Mas Al had left for his office early in the morning. Fortunately, the house is finished. Just take care of Alief who is feverish and still asleep.

While Alief was sleeping, I took the time to dry the clothes that I washed this morning. That's a lot, because a few days ago I couldn't wash. Stacked, because Alief fussed constantly.

While I was drying my clothes, I saw that many members of the Army and some of Mother Persit were gathering. Yes I know, they must be busy preparing everything for KASAD visit later. Sorry, sir, Mom I can't help you, hiks!

“Good morning, Dek Al!” a friendly greeting slid from the Commander Mother's mouth.

“Izin, good morning back, Mother.” reply I follow friendly. Obviously friendly dong, Mother Commander is originally very good! Super friendly. Unless there is an agenda, he is firm and very authoritative.

“I heard Alief has a fever, yes, Dek?” ask her while stopping for a moment. 'This Mom is even hanging out here.

“Izin, ready right, Mom. At one in the morning she woke up and when I checked it turned out her body temperature was hot.”

“Hopefully get well soon, yes, Deck. Then I continue checking.” said he while saying goodbye.

“Izin, ready thank you very much, Mother. Yes, please.”

They continued their checking activities. While I continue my activities of drying clothes. But, uh but, there was faintly the sound of Alief crying from a distance. Apparently my hero has woken up. Mama's coming, baby!

“Good morning, son Mama.” greet me cheerfully. I grabbed her tiny body. It turns out there's something wet down there. Alief wet this, hi hi hi.

“Alief is still feverish, can't take a shower first, yes, dear! Mama lap, so that Alief feels fresh.” said I invite Alief to speak. Her crying has subsided. Alief was happy to talk like that.

Deftly and carefully, I began to wipe Alief's entire body with warm water. Thank goodness he was not fussy, his fever had begun to subside. “Healthy, yes, Mama's son. Soon 'can aqiqah Alief.”

“Tok tok..” the sound of knocking the door stopped my activity while wearing clothes for Alief.

“Assalamu'alaikum.” The person said hello. It's Mama's voice. “Wah, grandma comes dear. Yuk, out, yuk!”

Then I opened the door while holding Alief's body. When it opened, there was Mama and Papa there.

“Hallo, good morning grandson, Eyang. How handsome you are, son! Grandson Eyang is in good health, yes!” greet Mama while kissing Alief's face. The little guy followed the excitement.

“Alief fever, Ma. This just subsided.” said to Mama who is now carrying Alief. Suddenly, Mama immediately put her hand on Alief's forehead.

“Already checked, Za?”

“Already, Ma. Doctor said, this is a side effect of immunization.” said I softly.

“Oh yes–iya, Mama new understand.”

“Titip Alief Yes, Ma. Kinza wants to make Mama drink with Papa.”

“Yes, honey, well that's Mama brought the same fruit pastries. You bring it inside, gih.”

“OK, Ma.”

I rushed to the kitchen to make food and drinks for Mama Papa. Mumpung Alief is guarded by Mama, I can be free to do any activity.

“This is the drink, Ma.” said after I finished making the drink.

“Still, yes, dear.”

“Oh yes, about alief aqiqah event. Mama has prepared all of them. Collaboration with your Mother-in-law. So, the implementation is in two weeks. Anyway, you don't have to be tired! Don't take care of anything anymore! Just focus on keeping Alief!” my mother said it made me happy. I don't have to bother taking care of this and that. Because, there were already two fairies who prepared everything. Wow, lucky Alief.

“Ready, Mistress!”

Second, in two weeks Alief aqiqah event is held. My wife, Kinza, just called. He said my mother-in-law came and provided information related to the implementation of the event later. Even though everything is ready, but still I can't stay still. There must be another form of participation.

“Assalamu'alaikum, Mas. I'm still busy, right?” ask Kinza from across the phone.

“Wa'alaikum sallam, Honey. Yes, I am still busy. Sorry, yes?” I said not feeling good.

“What's up?” ask me.

Kinza Irsyania Malik POV

Happy, excited, and certainly grateful. It was fortunate to live in the midst of a warm family. Love is not the same as you, how does it feel to be me? Super happy, right? haha arrogant!

So friend, I'm really happy now.many times even. Kenzo, who was single, now has a girlfriend. Even the wife! And, to my delight, Kenzo will marry my best friend, Claudia!

Imagine what our family relationship will be? It will be tighter and warmer, right? Sorry, but again I was bragging. Understandably, I am very happy hihi.

Right now, everything is talking warmly. Sharing stories and sharing jokes. Moreover, Kenzo and Claudia, they are targeted for being bullied because they are not yet fully legal. Ah, you guys know where we're going? Understandably, if you've been chatting with elders like this, ngawur everywhere!

Three pizza boxes are available in front of us. Not only that, there are also some special dessert menus ordered by Papa. Of course you know, this is all because Papa wants to celebrate Kenzo and Claudia's proposal day. So sweet once in my opinion, so warm and romantic!

“You want to add her pizza, baby?” I asked Mas Al who was chewing pizza. Quickly he shook his head.

“No dear, this is enough. Mas has finished three pieces 'lho.” reply while chuckling. I understand, Mas Al must be hungry. Plus his work must be draining the brain. Make your head goosebumps and stomach empty.

Well, if I don't ask. I'd rather eat the dessert that papa ordered. Italian cake Tiramisu and American cheesecake have been swallowed. Understandably, I prefer sweet food. Kayak Mas Al, ups

While Alief, he had already fallen asleep in his room. Adem ayem, not cry in the slightest because his stomach is fully filled by ASI. As a result, we all enjoyed this togetherness quietly. Good-natured Bobo, Lif, let your Mama and Papa calm down first, hehe. Good night, Papa and Mama!🥰
