Tio narrowed his eyes, he let out a heavy sigh staring at the daughter who was now his daughter-in-law. Already not going anywhere, standing for hours on top of hearing Kaira sneer at him. Huuufff..... It was a test for him.
"Daddy just wishes my granddaughter wasn't bar-bar-like like her parents."
"But it's been seen since now Tio, you don't feel like your grandson-to-be has the same character as you!" chirps Sella.
"Haish...." Mumbled Tio gave a rough sigh.
"Patience.....Remember it's the grandchild we're looking forward to so whatever for the first grandchild you're gonna do." Mamah Ceri spoke with enthusiasm and was given two thumbs up by Kaira behind Tio's back.
"Me?" tanya Tio asked for an explanation.
"Yes you!" replied Cherry with a smile.
Tio smiled stiffly by showing off his teeth, he nodded his head assenting when in his heart he cursed the words of the wife. The one who will receive the first grandchild is not only him but his wife as well but why he bears it all.
Until almost afternoon Kaira never let go of his embrace, lucky before the end of prayer time Zuhur Kaira fell asleep. As a result, Daddy Tio immediately went to the bathroom and prayed Zuhur in the room as well. For fear that Kaira would quickly wake up and look for her.
"Alhamdulillah Kaira sleep soundly, until not able to do the office because of Regan. This child also said for a while but not kelar-kelar. What's sich meeting?" Tio let out a heavy sigh and turned to the sofa then both legs he raised to the table in a selonjor position.
"Maybe not finished because of a very important meeting. Just be patient and go home soon. He's struggling, and Regan is making a living for the future of our daughter-in-law and grandchildren!" whispered his wife who was folding the prayer rug he prayed.
Sella who heard that just smiled and confirmed Cherry's words. Luckily Kaira is not fussy and asks herself to actually approach Regan to the office. If she did, Sella would be embarrassed by Regan's business partner who saw her coming just because her daughter was fussy.
"Yes....Ja....Hmmmm.....You're making me hiccup today, baby, just look at home later. I'll lock you in the room until morning!" lirih Tio but can still be heard by Sella.
"Let's just Sell, it's not going to happen because he has a daughter who is just as violent as he seems. The second will not let his Papa do the action for free."
"I know that nothing is free because I've sent monthly rations to our two daughters and tonight they're not coming home because they're going to Bali for a vacation." Tio replied lightly with a crisp laugh.
Cherry sighed harshly, always her husband spoiling his two daughters. Cherry is even worried that the two cannot be independent especially Retha who cries every month because she runs out of money. Though Tio gave a ration with a large nominal for snacks and all the needs of college .
But after investigating it turns out the money runs out along with him who cried due to a breakup. So Retha is famous as the campus playgirl but the money is all-out in the drain by her girlfriends. And that doesn't deter her because after crying all day the account will crunch back and she will be looking for a boyfriend again.

"Assynolt...."
"Wa'allaikumsalam....."
"This is him who is waiting to come as well" said Tio, finally he can breathe a sigh of relief and can go home.
"Sorry Bund, Mah, Pah, I just came because there was an obstacle that I had to solve. What about my wife? Are there any complaints or wishes he wants?" regan asked with worry. He immediately stepped closer to Kaira who was still soundly asleep.
"No fuss, it's just that your Papah doesn't sit around all day because Kaira won't let go. Even eat in the mouth." It was clearly her Mom who was now massaging her husband's feet.
"Alhamdulillah....Thank you Pah, thankfully there is Papah. If there isn't one I won't be able to leave Pah. Maybe tomorrow if Kaira's allowed home I'll take her to the office if she doesn't want to stay." Regan gently rubbed the head of the wife wrapped in hijab. It was not hearty to see his wife whining spoiled after this morning nausea vomiting.
"Well, if you need to not carry anywhere while singing!" chirps Papah Tio.
