He's my Milky Way

He's my Milky Way
Dad's sick



Two days after the crazy thing that Bima did, Maudy every morning, afternoon, evening and night snacked only with ice cream.


"Honestly, good thing I like ice cream Bim, otherwise I might throw up every day to eat this."


And today, Maudy closed her restaurant. Giving employees time off, not because they are tired. But because his father was sick, for Maudy because the restaurant opened not long ago, so it has not been able to give trust to others just like that. It is impossible to visit at once to visit his father for only an hour or two. If you can stay, Maudy will do it.


"Darling, you haven't told me yet, have you?" Maudy turned her head after sitting in the car.


"Not yet."


"Dear, sorry. I can only take you. I have a meeting today. I'll go home and get it."


"Yes Bim, it's okay." Smiling, ah looks like the mood is good.


"Darling, ask mom, what do you want to eat? Let me buy it later." Maudy nodded.


In the car Maudy did not babble as usual, he just sat still, calm and answered what Bima asked.


"Darling why?" Just shaking slowly.


Do I have any wrong??


Silence back. Bima also chose silence.


***


Maudy stared fixedly at her father lying in the tv room, covered with a small bed. And his hand is attached to the infusion. Her eyes were heating up, because she only said her father was sick. Didn't say until it had to be at home.


"Dad." Turn around and walk closer. The defense instantly collapsed, her tears dripping when she saw her father's pale face.


And now Maudy knows who she's down to. Dad, right? Even the sick do not want to be taken to the hospital.


"Why not go to the hospital?"


"Dad not ma Dy."


"What kind of pain is it?" Hugged his father.


"Zinc! I'm just tired maybe. There is no serious illness." Father replied with a smile despite not sprinkling a single hint of healthy light on his face.


"Well, I have to get to the office right now. I'm sorry, well, I can't take long." Bima said goodbye after talking to her mother.


"It's okay, Bim. Be careful."


Silent, Maudy was still staring fixedly at her father. Then occasionally throw away the padangan, he had never felt worried until this. Fathers who are always considered tough can be weakened in an aging age.


Hands that had begun to wrinkle he held and kissed, a sense of comfort flowed along with a kick from the stomach. Maudy smiled and stroked her stomach.


"It's nice to be near Grandpa." Again, he caressed her.


"Is it active, Dy?" I came back with warm tea.


"Yes, there's actually something I want to tell mom and dad. But what's appropriate in a father's circumstances."


"What's dad, anyway?" Uh Dad's trying to sit down right now. "Dy, I'm just a soy sauce. Just like you used to be sick, just different ages so it looks like I'm a helpless person." Maudy and her mother looked at each other, the next second they laughed.


Dad, a figure that admires. Even pain can be comforting.


"Try now we say, I'm both ready to listen." Dad sat down in a leaning position.


"Mom, you said that if we can contain two fetuses at once, there is usually a hereditary factor?" Mother nodded. "Well, so right now I'm carrying two fetuses at once, meaning-"


"Huh? Are you serious, Dy?"


"Have two grandchildren at once?"


Maudy immediately fell silent, had not had time to explain, ask, or finish his speech, had been cut by both parents.


"Yes ma'am, yesterday I was USG in between mama Lisa and papa Adi."


"How are they?"


"Yes happy ma'am, what other sex according to the wishes of his father Bima." Dad was also bearded, this time his face was blissful.


"It's true you said, it's because of heredity."


"Who would I ask if there are any in the family of the father or the family of the mother who has twins?" Mom was quiet, dad was quiet too. Maudy was still waiting for their answer by looking at her parents.


Mother replied with a weak nod.


"Who's mom?"


"Om you." Dad threw away his sight. Not wanting to interfere in the explanation, because for him this is sad news. Although it has been decades, but still if Maudy hears now he must be sad.


"Om Vishnu?" Mother nodded again. "Where can? Didn't mom say Vishnu was her only son?" Mother nodded again, ah Maudy was more confused to change her sitting position to the side of her mother.


"That time.."


Flashbacks


All those who waited for the process of a mother giving birth inside the house looked tense, but once they heard the sound of a crying baby they immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Smiles spread across the faces of the neighbors waiting in front of the house.


Until a baby shaman comes out with an ari-ari. Irma's mother who was 5 years old at the time, she was the most happy there.


"Sir, was my sister born?" Asked very enthusiastically. Nek Karmi, he's a baby shaman in the village. Answer with a smile and then nod.


"Is my sister grandma?"


"Male and female." Contact all who heard immediately gave thanks and whispered, meaning that the child who was born twins.


Nek Karmi re-entered after baby ari-ari handed over to the husband of the mother who gave birth.


"Do you want to be buried?" Nek Karmi's neighbors faintly heard him speak. All silent, silent. Until there was the sound of sobs behind the door of the room.


"Why bude?" Little Irma asked the sister of her mother.


"It's okay, son." He wiped his tears.


"I'm sorry, mothers, the house will be cleaned. My sister gave birth to two babies at once, but the female sex did not survive." All the neighbors were immediately shocked, and immediately helped prepare for the mourners to come.


Little Irma who knew nothing at that time could only look at everyone who was crying.


"Then from that, now the age is already sophisticated Dy. You can see how your baby's position, healthy, can not if born normally. Unlike the past, even seeing a doctor every month is not necessarily." Maudy was silent, not knowing what to do. If crying is not possible, who will be crying? Obviously, he didn't know what his mother's sister looked like.


"Already, my mother is also sincere. Eat it om you are the favorite son of your grandmother and grandfather. Even grandma used to be determined to make you a successful person. But it's your turn to succeed even grandfather called the almighty, then followed also grandma."


"Are mom and dad going to be like that?" Huh huh? They look at each other.


"You don't say that! It's the same as praying!"


"Yes not ma'am. But honestly, I'm actually afraid of mom, afraid that I can't give birth to two babies at once." Maudy lowered her head, and the shadow of her mother's past swirled in her head.


Thinking if the child's nutrition is not balanced in the stomach will actually be a bad effect.


"Mom sure you can."


"Are you Dy strong?" Dad looked and smiled.


"Are both women?" Father asked.


"I don't know, only one looks."


"Hopefully a man and a woman, so later that woman can be with her papa Bima, and that same man we are ma'am?" Uh Dad can smile now.


"So, how am I? I'm his parents?"


"You do it again, hehe." Mom and dad laughed, though Maudy was happy right now but she didn't want to show, as though the unborn child had already gotten the love of the family.


It turns out that the presence of a child is needed by parents, proven now his father eats greedily unlike last night, which is only two feeds only. Now even ask for more, with the reason he said he wanted to eat SOP.


"Well, am I the bribe?" Maudy took the plate that her mother brought, because the husband asked her to add so she had to go twice to the kitchen.


***


In the afternoon, those sitting in the TV room talking about accompanying their sick father heard the sound of car horns.


"Let's see Dy, most of all Bima." Maudy nodded and got up from her seat, apparently five months pregnant was too much for her to move, but Maudy was not her name when she complained.


"Bim, are you home?" Walk closer, kiss there kiss here.


"Then ah Bim later some see even envious." Distanced body.


"Kangen darling hehe." Maudy walked in, looking back again. It looks like Bima even returned to the car instead of walking in the house.


"Bim, what? Comein?" Standing right in front of the door.


"Behold dear."


Maudy sat back down to join her sister and parents.


"Well, here's what I want to bring." Enter with a box.


"What's that?" Maudy looked curious, in contrast to her mother she was still relaxed, and I didn't even blink to see her, it seemed like she knew what was inside.


"Yes electric bod, right?" Bima nodded.


"Make father, said father's mother wanted this." Geez, her dad patted her on the forehead, does my wife think I'm sick just from wanting that? His inner.


"Dad, why don't you tell me you want that?" Protest because even Bima who bought it.


"You're busy." Turning to look at Bima. "Bim, thank you." Bima nodded and smiled.


"Dy, it's afternoon. You go home, Bima is tired too." Whispering in Maudy's ear. Maudy did not respond and looked at a box that had been placed near her father.


"Tisha, how do you feel at home in the new room?" Bima asked.


"Udah feels like a rich man even sis." They laughed at Tisha's response.


"Bim, do you want to go home now?" Bima silence.


"Yes Dy, Bima is tired too."


"If you still want to be here, that's okay, baby." Gently stroked the top of his wife's head.


Half an hour later, I was back in the kitchen to prepare dinner. Bima was reluctant to take her home, because she herself knew that Maudy still wanted to stay here, taste her mother's cooking.


"Isn't anything Bim?" I decided to go home after dinner.


"No, baby." Smile again.


***


Everyone gathered at the dinner table, except Dad. With Bima who still wears a full suit suit, because if he takes a shower does not bring a change.


"Mom, if I can't cook at the restaurant anymore, will you help me? Mama's cooking." Mother nodded immediately. Even he seems happy to hear it.


"Darling, why bother mom? Don't you have any employees?"


"But I still doubt their cooking Bim, if you can be sure." Mom smiled and nodded.


"But baby, how tired are you?"


"What the hell is Bim, mommy want to be mom?" Pleadings.


"Yes-yes mom wants to. It's okay, Bim, it should be." Bima relented and remained silent, although in fact she herself was disinclined.


Until the dinner, Bima and Maudy decided to go home. Bringing relief because his father had better his health.


"Darling, we're leaving tomorrow?" After sitting in the car.


"Where's Bim?"


"Sundari and Ilham are getting married."


"Geez, finally."


"Dear, it's not in vain that I match them."


"What??" Surprised, Bima was silent and ready to be showered by thousands of statements from his wife.
