Glass Flakes

Mindfulness

It's been a week since Dinda returned to her father-in-law's house. During that time his days were filled only by playing with Talita or accompanying his in-laws with a myriad of activities. Bored and bored is definitely felt. Especially Dimas the husband is busy with office affairs that take up a lot of time. Makes the wife feel more confident when Talita is left who is sometimes cool dating her boyfriend Andra.

Today, Dinda was invited by Ambar to take a yoga class. As usual, after the activities of the girl went straight to the room to clean herself first. After bathing and changing clothes, he laid his body on his favorite mattress. Grabbing the phone she placed next to her, then checking in case her busy husband contacted her. Just as expected, Dimas had just sent a message for her.

What else, baby?

Sleeping, just returned to yoga with my mom.

You want to pesen something? Just go home again.

No need to, darling. You just go home.

Ok baby, wait yaaa,,😘

Back he put his phone on a small table beside him. His gaze stared at the white ceiling of the room. Without feeling the corner of the eye that looks sad it looks wet by tears.

Flashbacks

Dinda sat next to Ambar's mom who was having a good conversation with two of her friends after taking a yoga class. As usual, my mother always introduced Dinda to her friends. Especially for those who do not know his daughter-in-law.

"There are no signs yet of Din?" Mira said shortly after shaking hands with Dinda.

"What's aunt's sign?" Dinda answered the question of her friend-in-law.

"Iihhhh, you've been married a long time. How, have you filled it yet?"

"Doain aja aunty" replied Dinda still with her smile.

"Ihhh, you know what Din is. It's been a year. She is not pregnant either. Have you checked yet?"

"Dinda is still in college. Nyantai lah" said Ambar's mother who realized the change in expression on her daughter-in-law.

"But actually also said Mira lho jeng. What is expected of a marriage if not a child?" Timpal Lena's another mama's friend.

It doesn't hurt. But these words were able to create pain in the corner of Dinda's heart. Though all this time he just relaxed undergoing his marriage. After only a few months he had a normal husband and wife relationship like other households. But Lena's words really created a strange rumble in her heart. Between offense and worry, I don't know. I don't know what the taste is, until unconsciously clear water pooled in his eye pelup.

"Ma, Dinda went to the toilet and broke down" said Dinda as she moved so quickly she realized she was crying.

Flashback end

Chequelek

Dimas entered the room in his work suit. Put the bag containing the laptop on the table and walked up to Dinda who was still lying on the bed.

Cup

A kiss landed on the wife's forehead and made the girl open her eyes.

"New mom coming home?" Ask Dinda as she sits up from her sleep.

"Yes. You why?" Dimas looked at Dinda's face that looked sad. Dinda cupped her face with both hands.

"Emang why?"

"Capek huh? Or the same kangen mas?" Temptation Dimas.

Unexpectedly Dinda even hit Dimas who sat in front of him. "Kangen bangeeetttt" he said as he tightened his arms.

"Why the hell, baby? Don't you usually like this?" Said Dimas returning Dinda's embrace.

"No why-why. Take a shower this afternoon".

The night is late. The clock pointed to the number One. But Dinda was still awake with the words of Lena swirling in her head.

What is expected of a marriage if not a child?

Have you filled yet?

It's been a year. Have you checked yet?

Aaahhhh, why does the keinget continue anyway. She has also been a real wife for a few months. Why do they talk rich, ah. So this thought. No papa Din, there's all the time. Maybe it's time to enjoy your marriage. Your husband and family are fine too. They never asked you to get pregnant. Just ignore them.

Time and again Dinda convinced her heart to forget that not-so-important conversation. However, for some reason the discordant voices still circled in his ears. It was as if someone had just whispered it. Annoyed, he tilted his body while covering a pillow over his ear. Hope the drowsiness will come to him soon.

But Dinda's movement even made Dimas who was hugging him wake up.

"You haven't slept?" Asked Dimas while pulling the pillow that covered Dinda's head.

"Mas Dim is annoying?"

"What the hell is Din? From that time there are rich people you hide" Dimas raised his head with his left hand as a pedestal. His right hand was still on Dinda's stomach.

Slowly Dinda turned her body until now she faced her husband's chest field. "Mas,,,"

"Hmm?" Dimas again spread his body and stretched out his left hand to then become a pillow Dinda.

"Don't you want to have kids?"

Dimas scrunched his forehead hearing a question from Dinda. "What the hell are you talking about? Still want some more?" Dimas asked with his jail smile."

"Masss" dinda's header.

"There was no wind, no rain, suddenly it was rich. That was less, right?" Tanya Dimas then kissed the lips that still look upset.

"Mas I'm serious" distanced the face of Dimas who began to shower him with a kiss.

"Why the hell, are you suddenly so rich?"

With a little hesitation, Dinda finally told me the thing that had disturbed her mind. Dimas who saw the seriousness on his wife's face also listened carefully to the story. He knew his wife was not okay. Evidently Dinda who usually immediately fell asleep after their night activity, until now has not closed her eyes.

"You think of Aunt Lena?" Ask Dimas as soon as Dinda finishes her story.

"Emm" nodded Dinda.

Dimas tightened his embrace on his wife. "Honestly, I haven't thought about it yet. We got married for over a year, but for the business of making our child new Din. It's only been a few months now".

"Ih, I'm talking about it anyway. What can make a child?"

"It's just baby. If that's the case, let God take care of it. We can only try and pray. And the good thing is, we try to be diligent first. Yeah no?" Said Dimas who immediately got a pinch gift from Dinda.

"Mas not sad, is it that Dinda is not pregnant?"

"Ngapain sad? That means, God still gives us the same opportunity to date dear. Set yourself up to be a good parent later. Okay, just relax. No need to think about the words of the rich man" Dimas slightly loosened his embrace to look at his wife's face. "You're happy to be Miss Dimas?"

"Emm" nodded Dinda accompanied by her sweet smile.

"That's the most important thing. Don't think of anything weird anymore. I don't want to worry about this beautiful wife. Ugly know?".

Dinda again buried her face in the chest of her husband's field. There was some relief hearing the words from the man who hugged her. True what Dimas said, everyone must have arranged it. Not that we live only through what the owner of life has written. There is all the time, and maybe now is not the time for them to accept that trust.
