Ayu was breastfeeding her two-day-old baby when Alex entered the hospital suite. Alex just came from taking care of the administration. They were planning to go home today, although Alex took a package of up to five days there. She can't wait to bring her son home. He wanted to immediately introduce the world to Aeleya.
"Daddy's son is eating again" said Alex who immediately kissed his daughter's cheek. The kiss switched again on Ayu's cheek. He had a small argument with Ayu about the call. At first, they agreed to call Papa and Mama. However, after seeing Aleeya who did not have a Malay face in the slightest made Alex decide to be called Daddy.
"What kind of lactation class is that?"
Earlier this morning Ayu met a lactation counselor to consult on good breastfeeding techniques. The consultation was very important for Ayu, especially with all her worries, both physical and emotional.
Alex's eyes are never separated from the tiny baby who continues to suck the essence of food from his mother. His chest expanded every time he saw that little face. He's never been this happy.
"It's not a dream, is it?" alex asked, smiling broadly. "I still can't believe I'm a father."
The sleeping Aeleya was released by Ayu. The baby closed his eyes with his mouth open slightly. Alex grew increasingly anxious and immediately kissed the still red cheek. She pulled her son's nose again, until the baby wriggled in Ayu's sling.
"Ih, Aleeya will wake up!" ayu protest hits Alex's hand intending to touch her son's cheek.
"Gemes, honey," said Alex who immediately kissed the baby.
"Kasian, he needs sleep."
"The feeling of sleep continues, dear. If you wake up the most, or poop. I want to play, I want to kiss, I want to walk, just a lot."
Ayu laughed at Alex's childlike expression. She shook Aleeya after the baby cried for a while.
"The grandpa's newly born, gini. Then the cocoa has been three months new can be active," said Ayu who enough experience to keep the Twins. She was always paid as a nanny when she was not working.
"For a long time," said Alex. She switched to the baby. "Daddy will play with his Aleeya."
The baby pulled one corner of his lips. Alex was immediately excited. "Liat, Aleeya smiled. Big quick, Unfortunately Daddy."
Ayu smiled slightly. She could see how much her husband loved Aeleya. However, he felt guilty to his parents, because he did not immediately inform them about the happy news. Aeleya's birth was known only to Him and Alex, as well as Cleo.
"What's wrong?" ask Alex who caught Ayu's mimic change.
"Are we not supposed to call Dad?"
"If you want, I'll call Dad right now. They'll be sad to know."
Ayu thought for a moment. "Waiting two more weeks is okay, right?"
Alex touched Ayu's cheek and nodded. Ayu gave birth earlier than scheduled, the woman was increasingly worried if her family knew that she had been unloaded before marriage.

Ayeya had been crying since this morning. The two-week-old baby is cranky every time Alex goes to work. At first, he always contacted the man. However, she did not want to get her baby used to being spoiled, just enough of her being spoiled.
"Prophey, honey. When Daddy comes home, it just works. Mommy wants to rest" said Ayu, shaking Aleeya in a sling.
Ms. Ina had already tried to carry Aleeya. However, the baby was not commonly held by anyone else except his parents. So it immediately cried when taken by Bu Ina.
"I'll call Mr Alex, Neng?" Ms. Ina felt sorry for the baby who kept crying. Though, Ayu had tried to sweep.
"Alex said there was a meeting. He must have called when it was over," said Ayu. He walked towards Aleeya's room. She kept trying to comfort the baby. She lays Aleeya in a DNA box twisting a toy that spins her over it. Maybe Ayu forgot that the baby was not perfect for her eyesight. The baby screamed as soon as it was released.
Unbearable, Ayu grabbed him back into the sling. The baby was flushed and screaming loudly. Her tears are starting to fall. She cried, could not bear to see the baby, but did not know how to keep her still.
Sobbing, Ayu starts contacting Alex. Surprisingly, Aleeya calmed down as soon as she heard her father's voice despite the voice. After Aeleya was successfully treated by Ayu to sleep, the baby was placed on the box.
Still connected to Alex, but Ayu doesn't talk. The woman kept crying.
"Darling, why are you crying?"
Ayu just fell silent. He cried again, now accompanied by a loud cry.
"Cup, cup, pity Aeleya if you are sad like this. Later he'll be even more whiny," comfort Alex.
"I'm Aleeya's mother, but .." lamented Ayu who was cut off by crying, "I'm not a good mother, right."
"Eh, honey, don't say that! He's just fussy, he'll be better."
Ayu nodded slowly. He tries to calm himself down, following Alex's instructions to catch his breath while closing his eyes. He tried to imagine the smiling and growing face of his son, continuing to grow into adulthood.
Three days ago, Ayu and Alex attended a class for new parents. They did routinely attend parenting classes since the age of Ayu's womb in the second trimester. There they began to be taught to cope with the baby blues that many experienced by mothers. According to the Doctor, Alex has a lot to play in helping Ayu take care of their baby.
"I'm back at work, yeah. I must have come home early."
Ayu nodded and gave Alex a smile before their video call connection was cut off. He headed beside Aleeya's box, staring at the slumbering baby. He decided to lie down on the sofa bed and rest.
I don't know how long he slept there. By the time he woke up, Aleeya was already not in the box. Panic strikes her, she immediately runs out to look for the whereabouts of her baby. He breathed a sigh of relief as soon as he saw on the sofa Alex was playing with Aleeya.
"Wake up?"
"Why not wake up?"
"You slept well."

(Appearance of Aeleya, beautiful right?)
"What are you doing?"
"You're showing off Aeleya to the world. Let everyone know, my son is beautiful."
Ayu. He instantly grabbed onto Aeleya, being let out a few times fondly.
"I've called Dad, Mom, same Mama. I told you that you were the baby yesterday, faster than expected."
Ayu bit her lip. He began to think about what his parents would say. He turned to look at Alex who was now clutching his fingers.
"Don't think about it, honey! They were happy, even impatient to meet Aeleya. Mama's coming tomorrow, maybe the same Mama. I can't come, I want to wait for you to bring her granddaughter home she said."
Ayu laughed a little. He began to kiss Aleeya, then grabbed the clothes that had been removed by Alex. She put telon oil on the baby's chest before putting on the clothes again.
As they were engrossed in playing with Aleeya who was waking up and continued to make kicking moves, the bell rang. Alex got up and opened the door. He was outside, there was already Jonny and Gio standing with their respective paper bags in hand. Without waiting for the homeowner's approval, they went right past Alex.
"Well, new nephew!" gio said as soon as he saw Aeleya.
Ayu who did not know they came straight gawking. She forced a smile and immediately carried the baby.
"Bad you, Bro!" Jonny punched Alex in the arm. "This beautiful boy's time is hidden!" She sits next to Ayu and intends to touch the baby, but Ayu instantly keeps the baby away.
Jonny turns his back, staring at Ayu and Alex alternately.
"Wash your hands first!" pinta Ayu's.
"Remember, don't kiss! Your lips are a lot of germs." Alex added when Jonny and Gio had intended to go westafle.
Upon returning the two men, Aeleya was already in Alex's arms. The girl was shaking her hands as if she wanted to grab Alex's face.
"Do you know where Ayu was born?" alex asked who still refused to let his two friends touch Aleeya.
"From Jonny," Gio answered successfully touching Aleeya with both hands.
"From Cleo," Jonny replied after getting a sharp look at Alex. Although he seems very friendly, he knows that Alex is very dangerous when it comes to privacy. Actually, he had promised Cleo not to divulge it to Alex. However, he was curious at the appearance of his new nephew.
"Ben and Clara come tomorrow the most. He said the Twins want to meet the baby," said Gio.
Alex could only snort in annoyance. He wishes Arini and Marissa had not coincided with Clara's arrival. Ben's wife's mouth can't be braked sometimes.
"Come, Bro! I'd like to kiss just once, ' said Jonny.
"I'm gonna carry it, Lex. I'm experienced in taking care of babies." Gio was proud. He has many nieces and nephews, so he often holds a baby.
Alex who believes in Gio immediately thrusts Aleeya to Gio.
"Don't you have a personal grudge against me!" it was Jonny who felt sentiments from Alex.
"No, I just don't want my son to do anything" Alex said.
Ayu came out with a tray filled with juice for her two guests.
"I'm asking for some wine in the room, Baby!" Jonny looks at Ayu, then points to the wine storage cabinet and some other types of alcohol belonging to Alex.
"Why do you bother everything. They can take their own drinks" Alex told Ayu. Actually, he wanted to protest. During the marriage, not once did Ayu take a drink for her.
"Whose name?" gio asked who had been busy talking incoherently with Aleeya, although there was no response except for the occasional smile.
"Aleeya," Alex replied.
"Ah, isn't Aleeya your boyfriend's name?" Jonny asked with an innocent face.
Alex glared at Jonny.
"Ah, your boyfriend at High School. You said it, ", added Jonny.
"Eh, no!" seloroh Gio's. "Aleeya is the model. The first time I stayed in Singapore" he added.
Jonny stared intently at Gio while shaking his head. "That's your boyfriend, Yo. Forgotten period, who once slapped you after being caught cheating. Time forgot!"
Gio looked thoughtful and nodded straight away. "Totally so." He looked down at Aleeya and smiled at the baby. "Uncle is senile."
Alex no longer cares about the two. He had forgotten about most of his ex-girlfriends, most of them. He had no idea that there was ayeya's name in any of them. Now, he only commented a smile on Ayu who put on a firm face.
All right, if Ayu goes berserk after this. Remind Alex to chop up his friend.
