New baby



Dinda smiled looking at the small girl running around in front of her. The little girl seemed so happy after hearing the news that she had just become an older sister. Entering the house with her cheerful smile, Qila ran first after the door was opened by Ms. Narti.


"Assalamu'alaikuum," said Dinda as soon as he arrived in the living room. While the little girl in front of him again called out a half-screaming greeting because no oma answered him.


"Bi Narti, how quiet?" Aqila asked watching around. "Where's Qila's sister?"


"Sister Qila is still in the hospital dear, later in the afternoon we see the same father Dimas yes" replied Dinda softly. He grabbed Qila's hand and led her towards the second floor. "Now Qila rest first with mother okay?" continued.


"Oke mother" said Qila spirit.


The five-year-old girl jumped up and down happily while walking in her hand with her bud which she called mother. Aqila was the second daughter of Talita and Andra. The couple had just gained happiness with the birth of their third child, a male. Their first child was an eight-year-old girl who now sits in the second grade of Elementary School.


As for Dinda herself, the woman who is currently almost thirty years old is still expecting a miracle from God. He was convinced with all the confidence in his heart that the merciful God would grant his prayers by giving him the offspring he had longed for at the right time.


Dimas himself did not remain silent. He could not simply accept what happened to him. As a servant, he should have tried beside the prayer that he never broke. In addition to still consuming various vitamins and even herbs for fertilization, Dimas has also undergone a series of examinations to restore fertility. Yes, two years ago he had just had surgery for a varicocele cure. Although the doctor himself did not guarantee the results of the operation, but Dimas insisted on living it. With the hope of a miracle after the various efforts he lived.


After previously he was so afraid to undergo every series of examinations, somehow several times saw the gloomy face of his wife as if to spark his spirit to re-examine himself. Even had crossed his mind to undergo the process of baby tubes. But gently Dinda explained to be patient in a moment. They have not tried. If the way of their Lord had not been allowed to have children, Dinda would have been sincere. Because what is good according to them, it could be the opposite according to God.


After the completion of all medical efforts, now they just wait for the hand of God who works. Nothing is impossible. They just have to keep praying to the almighty. And believe everything has gone according to the scenario of the owner of life.


In the afternoon, Dinda keeps her promise to bring Aqila to meet her new sister. Now they are with Dimas and Aleysha Aqila's sister, walking down the hospital hall to Talita's treatment room.


"Assalamu'alaikuum," said Dinda opened the door to Talita's ward.


"Wa'alaikumsalam" came a simultaneous reply from within.


"Mamiiii,," cried Aqila and Aleysha together.The two little girls ran towards Talita who was sitting leaning over the gurney.


"Eeehhhh, slowly dear, the baby's sister will cry" replied the mother to welcome her two daughters.


Instantly a warm atmosphere was created in that VIP treatment room. Dinda who is very longing for the presence of the baby did not miss the opportunity to just pet the new man. Occasionally pray in his heart that he also has the opportunity to conceive and give birth like other women.


"It's very similar to Qila ya ma" said Dinda to the in-laws who also pay attention to the baby.


"Yes, same with baby Qila" she replied.


The cool dimas playing with Qila also noticed a glimpse of Dinda who seemed happy to hold the baby. There was a bit of pain in Dimas' heart to see the gaze of the wife who was so longing for the baby. And in fact, he himself knew how his wife had strengthened his heart to just congratulate others on the birth of their baby.


Yes, it is undeniable, envy often perched in Dinda's heart. Like ordinary humans, he who is very longing for the presence of the baby is often envied every time he hears the news of pregnancy or birth. But he did not just dissolve in that perverted feeling. Even very slickly he hid that feeling and was heartened to offer his congratulations sincerely.


"Honey at night, go home yuk" said Dimas interrupted the preoccupation of his wife and mother.


"Yes Din, kill the children later in the hospital" said Ambar's mother.


"Mama didn't come home?" Ask Dinda to the in-laws.


"Mama's coming home soon when Andra comes".


"Mama came home with no papa. Soon the children's papi also came" Talita said.


"Yes Dinda went home first then" Dinda handed the baby in her lap to her sling. "Bude go home first baby, tomorrow here again yes" said Dinda with a voice resembling a child.


"Yes bude, thank you Alvin" replied Talita representing the son. "Titip kids yes brother".


"Beres, you calm down, Lisa and Qila are safe".


"Dear dear, salim oma first" Dimas guided Qila who was still fun playing with his doll. Aleysha hugged the mother first.


………


Dinda settles down after a while and accompanies Qila and Lisa in her room. The sound of the bathroom door opening and her husband still looks dashing in his forties.


"Aaa, my old husband's handsome man" said Dinda spoiled as she raised her hands to welcome Dimas.


Dimas who saw Dinda's spoiled behavior just smiled in response. And without many words, the man sat himself on the edge of the bed while entering into the arms of his wife.


It wasn't once twice that Dinda behaved like that. I don't know, the more here the woman who has the status of his wife is getting spoiled. In fact, several times Dinda asked Dimas to carry her around the house while no one was at home. And Dimas also served his wife's indulgence with pleasure. For him, Dinda's happiness was his top priority.


"Why baby? Tired?" Ask Dimas while peeping Dinda's cheek.


"A little bit" Dinda replied still embracing Dimas' neck tightly.


"Do you want me to get a pijitin?"


"You want dong, but you're tired too".


"Can be changed" said Dimas while breaking away from the entanglement of Dinda's hand.


"No need ah" Dinda also gave up her embrace. "Here and there, we're stories" he continued, patting the empty side.


Without a warning, Dimas went up to the bed by jumping over Dinda who was still lying down. He swiftly extended his arm to be used as a pillow by his wife and grabbed Dinda's body into his arms.


"Hmmm, comfort" said Dinda slowly.


"Why? You're not sad anymore, are you?" Tanya Dimas was suspicious. Several times he found Dinda acting excessively because the woman was sad. Either he himself thought of pregnancy or someone who touched him. Dimas understood that, but his wife never wanted to tell her own story before Dimas asked.


"No. I have a new voice".


"We will also have a cute baby rich Alvin" entertain Dimas who knows his wife's anxiety. "You said yourself, God has prepared the best time for us" he continued, then kissed the friendly Dinda.


"Yes, Dinda knows. We will also have a turn. Even the twins. Girl guy, exciting times ya mas".


"Aamiin, we pray, baby. Hopefully we will be given more patience until the time comes".


"Aamiin, hopefully, my old husband is still handsome until lateriii" said Dinda giggled amused because the husband who showered him with a kiss.
