Umi Maryam only smiled faintly as she glanced at Vefe. Didn't answer Gun's question. Prefer to busy with tidying the table beside Mpok Ria.
"Grandfather came here alone, sir?" ask Vefe.
"So here with her two daughters."
"Tante Dar and Aunt Prapti?"
"True ..it brought the biggest gift in the corner," replied Mr. Gun.
"Oh my God, what is so heavy?" Vefe approached the gift appointed by Mr. Gun and tried to pick it up.
"Open up if you're curious, ma'am!" mr Gun's orders.
"No, later when you're home."
Mother Fatia sat beside Mpok Ria and invited a conversation. Ask about the health and readiness of being a mother. Give advice and tips on being a mother and how to care for a baby.
Mpok Ria told me first when he found Vefe dumped in front of the rented orphanage. Mpok Ria who took care of the tiny baby until big. That's why Vefe considered her a foster mother until now.
Vefe immediately sat down next to Mother Fatia and kissed the back of Mpok Ria's hand, "Thank you, Mpok Ria's services are very big for Ve."
Mpok Ria smiled as she rubbed Vefe's cheek. Responding in sign language also thanked me. Because Vefe's husband now has healthy offspring.
Unwittingly Mpok Ria smiled as she filled with tears. Not tears of grief but tears of great happiness. Not a brother or a family but the inner bond of both like mother and child.
"Eee why are you crying?" vefe asked, but his eyes were also glazed.
Mother Fatia rubbed Vefe and Mpok Ria's shoulders together. Want to distract a little to not dissolve in tears, "Oyes by the way what's the baby's name?" ask Mother Fatia.
Mbok Ria smiled as he pointed at Pak Gun by answering in sign language. She gave a hand signal that her husband had prepared a name for his son. Preparing two names at once because yesterday is not known the identity of the baby in the womb.
"Ooooo ... Gun sir has his name ready?" asked Mother Fatia again and answered the head nod by Mpok Ria.
"The name is Ilham Ilamunia Cahyanto," replied Mr. Gun.
"It's good to have a name, so it's called baby Inspiration, sir?" ask Vefe.
"May also."
"Badi genenge Ilham Karunia Cahyanto putrane Gunawan Cahyanto," joked Bunda Fatia using Javanese language.
"Goddess Leres, Madame Mother." Gun also replied in Javanese.
Vefe who began to be able to speak a little Javanese language also answered with the following, "Injih mboten yo, Pak Gun?"
"Hha ha ...?" Mr. Gun laughed at Vefe's original reply.
"That's a good name, Umi really likes."
Gun sir smiled as he nodded in agreement. The meaning of the name is the infinite gift of the almighty. Wishing baby Inspiration to be a proud child of parents.
Their conversation paused as Umi Maryam's cell phone rang. There was an incoming call from Aunt Kudri who was in the orphanage. Umi Maryam pressed the green button and the loud speaker button.
"What's up, Auntie?"
"There's a guest, Umi."
"Who's the guest anyway, Bi."
"There's Nak Ve's real mother and the Korean husband." Aunt Kudri's voice was slightly lowered.
"Ooo Mommy Astrid and Daddy Kim Oen?"
"Auntie forgot their names, Umi."
"What did they want, Umi just met this morning, but they didn't say they wanted to visit?"
"They came with Grandpa Raharjanto with a pot, Umi."
Vefe who heard the conversation of Umi Maryam and Aunt Kudri from a distance laughed devil while closing his mouth. Guessing the possibility of Grandpa Raharjanto invite Mommy Astrid and Daddy Kim Oen. After not taking Khan yesterday.
Umi Maryam until glared at the crybaby Vefe. Mouth at nearly five centimetres in annoyance. Grandpa Rahajanto has not given up yet even though he has always avoided.
Mother Fatia who did not know the problem, looked at Vefe while frowning in wonder. My favorite daughter-in-law was grinning while glancing at Umi Maryam. Though his eyes were glazed over, "What the hell, son. How do you smile yourself?"
"It's okay, Bun. Ve only remembered that Aaron chose to follow Oma Astrid rather than his own mother," replied Vefe origin.
Smiling before leaving for the hospital. Mommy Astrid and Daady Kim Oen say goodbye to visiting her son Lee Kim Oen in the apartment. Baby Aaron chose to follow his oma because he was given a toy first.
Vefe was surprised now that they were in the orphanage with Grandpa Raharjanto, "Auntie ...!" yelled Vefe join in the conversation Umi Maryam.
"Well, what's wrong, Ve boy?"
"Who's Baby Aaron?"
"Digendong with Opa Korea while playing with Ai and Gi."
"Not crying, are you?"
"No, son."
"thank you, Bi."
"Together, where's Umi, son?"
"Umi's still here, what's up?"
"So how, Umi?"
Umi Maryam was silent for a moment while frowning. A few minutes did not answer Aunt Kudri's question, "Umi ...?" call Aunt Kudri.
"Let's say Umi's still bothered here, Auntie's the one who received the shotgun!"
"What about Grandpa Raharjanto, Umi. He asked Umi when to come home?"
"Make aunty."
"Rrc .... Um!" shouted Aunt Kudri.
"Astagfirullah hal'adzim." Umi Maryam reflexes to turn off the phone because of nervousness and annoyance.
Vefe laughed out loud at Umi Maryam's words. Umi Maryam is getting nervous. While Mother Fatia and others are confused because of the strange behavior of Umi Maryam and Vefe.
"Sorry, Ve is going to the bathroom" Vefe said, running away so as not to be asked for a laugh and not knowing why.
"Bun, Umi's going outside for a second, calling Mommy Astrid." After three dollars, Umi Maryam also rushed outside the hospital room so as not to be asked by Mother Fatia.
"Yes, please" answered Mother Fatia in surprise.
Mommy Astrid and Daddy Kim Oen followed Vefe to the hospital. Baby Aaron cries for ASI and calls his mom. Baby Aaron who rarely separated and away from his mother only able to survive less than half a day.
When Mommy Astrid came in and said hello. Umi Maryam gasped in surprise and looked at the door. Reply to the greeting as if half-heartedly as it continues to stare at the entrance.
Umi Maryam's heart was afraid that Grandpa Raharjanto would come too. I tried not to meet because I didn't want to give you any hope. Still opinionated as before does not want to replace Abi Syam.
Behind Mommy Astrid is Dady Kim Oen holding baby Aaron. Umi Maryam was getting more agitated when there was still someone pushing the entrance again. The fear and worry that came was the one that was avoided all along.
"Assalamualaik."
