Chapter 126

In the morning Siti accidentally woke up early, and asked Bi Darsih to accompany her to go to the market. As per the custom in his village, every time there is someone who gives birth, then from the family will prepare 'breathing', that is buying a variety of snacks in the market to be eaten by new lahiran.

If in the village usually only need to go to the badog market, because there is already a variety of market snacks available, while in Jakarta, Siti has never gone to the market, therefore, it is, Siti invites the familiar Darsih to the market to accompany her.

Ari who accidentally stayed at the house also drove Siti and Darsih to the traditional market. That morning the market was crowded by traders and also buyers who were bargaining.

" This way, Ms. Siti, the complete market hawker aisle that is in the middle" Darsih said.

Siti follows Darsih and right, in the middle aisle of the market there are a variety of market hawker sellers. Siti also bought a little, because the food for the breath only needs to taste a little.

Various kinds of market snacks are now included in the shopping bag that Darsih carries. This morning Darsih also shopping quite a lot of vegetables and seasonings, because there are many residents at home, and must cook more every day.

Returning from the market at 7 am, Siti immediately asked Ari to be dropped off at Medika hospital, because Siti wanted to directly visit Dila to her room.

" His room is at the end of the first hall right Ar?", Siti repeated her sentence, to clarify.

" True Bu Siti, room VVIP number 2", repeated Ari, because since in the car Ari had repeated many times his words.

Siti immediately walked into the hospital with excited steps. In his hand carried a shopping bag containing various types of market snacks. Almost all market snacks are bought by Siti. Also three packs of chicken porridge, for breakfast himself, Bu Fatma and also Indra.

When she found the room exactly as Ari said earlier, Siti immediately knocked on the door and said her greetings.

The door of the room opened, Indra opened the door of Dila's room, seen Ms. Fatma holding a small baby while inviting her to talk.

" In Bu, the little one has just finished drinking ASI, now being carried with his grandmother to burp" said Indra let her mother-in-law in, kissing the back of Siti's hand.

Siti immediately approached Dila and hugged her very tightly, "Mother's daughter turned out to be very strong and great, mother is proud of you son, congratulations to baby".

Dila nodded in her mother's arms, now Dila knows how her mother struggled when trying to give birth to her. Dila loved her mother more than ever.

" Thank you very much, Mom, for the struggle of mother when trying to give birth to Dila first".

Siti just nodded at Dila's words, after being satisfied hugging each other long enough. Siti approached the iron, and looked at the face of her first grandchild with a happy smile.

" Mommy Fatma had breakfast first, nemenin Nak Indra had breakfast, let Dede baby be with me" said Siti, while heading to the bathroom, washing her hands with soap, because she was out of the market, because she was out of the market, meeting with a crowd, afraid of sticking a lot of germs on his hands.

After washing her hands, Siti took her grandson in turns with Ms. Fatma.

" God, Dede baby is very gaunt cheeks...like Bu Dila at birth, very similar", muttered Siti while kissing her grandson's cheeks like a bakpao.

" Nak Indra and Bu Fatma please eat it chicken porridge, was bought at the market, all buy papasan for Dila, Dila also tasted it all market snacks that I have bought, the mother has bought, before Dede baby off the umbilical cord, you should have tasted everything, even if only a little, if the villagers say 'breathe', in Jakarta there is such is not Miss Fatma?", ask Siti while holding her granddaughter.

Fatma who was opening the package of chicken porridge looked, "There is no such ritual Ms. Siti. You do not have to eat all kinds of food like that, which is important to eat healthy and nutritious food, so that the production of breast milk is smooth, the mother and baby are healthy" replied Fatma.

Siti nodded, "Yes too yes, maybe the old village people also aim like that, let the mother who just gave birth eat a lot, just so it becomes like a tradition, just like a tradition, people who have just given birth are told to taste all kinds of food".

" Thank you for breakfast, ma'am.., are you and Dita still at home?", asked Indra while throwing away the chicken porridge that had been used up.

" Oh yes if Indra and Ms. Fatma are tired, because all night stay up waiting for the little one, now you can rest. Let me take care of Dila here" said Siti.

" Who says we're tired and sleepy, the guy last night Dede his baby sleeps mute, because his ASI Dila just came out earlier, last night same sister in love formula milk. Eh fullness maybe, until the little one sleeps really, woke up this morning after dawn, maybe because hungry again, fortunately just right in trying to drink Asi directly, maybe, already out Asi Dila, so no need to make formula milk again", explained Fatma.

" So my grandmother's henchmen, thank goodness then, so her mother can rest a lot".

" Are you on vacation or stopping?", asked Siti to Dila.

Siti does not know if Dila is following the CPNS selection this year. And just waiting for the final results, even yesterday Dila felt stomach heartburn also after taking the final exam of the CPNS test. Fortunately, the baby jabang patiently waited for his mother to finish following each stage of selection.

A few more weeks just waiting for the announcement of the passing of the participants, and from all aspects Dila felt calm, because all the results of the test were very good.

" Dila is just a leave of absence, after all, now again the turn of the new school year, the students who yesterday were on a class hike vacation. So Dila took a holiday too, starting to leave when the new teachings began. The principal was already looking for a temporary substitute teacher to teach in Dila's classroom. The distance from the school to the house is not far away very, Dila can go home at rest to give Asi to the little one, and the time to go home is also 1 o'clock, ' he said, so Dila time is still a lot for the little one" said Dila.

He was already a difficult teacher, without reducing his affection for the newborn child, because when Dila began to leave later, the little one was more than 3 months old, so it's getting bigger and moreover the job of being a teacher is not protracted like working in a company that hours home until the afternoon.

" So when you leave later, you want to leave your child the same who?, mother anyway want to stay here ngurus mother, but your father has a lot of work in the village, but your father has a lot of work in the village, can not be left alone" said Siti.

" There's my Bu Siti, I will definitely be happy to take care of my granddaughter, especially now that El is getting bigger, and independent. Already in SD, used to go and go home with Dila, so little let me take care. No need to rent a baby sitter, because the teaching job is only until noon. Some of the house there is Bi Darsih, there is Bi Ana, they are all like their own family, can help each other" said Fatma.

Indra has been silent since, she does not want to talk, worried that Dila feels uncomfortable if Indra speaks, afraid of being thought to be protesting, because Indra does not want Dila to be angry. Indra must keep Dila's mood good. Moreover, his wife had just given birth, would need support, not even get criticism.

" There are many people at home, we can all work together to take care of the baby's sister, mother does not have to worry, everything will be fine, especially Dila is very good at taking care of small children. Surely our daughter will be a good child like Dila" said Indra while embracing Dila's shoulder, as if encouraging.

Dila was actually already worried if Indra would tell him to resign from his job, why work if all his needs can be fulfilled, while taking care of the baby has become the duty of a mother.

But it turns out Indra did not mind his desire to keep working. And it makes Dila more grateful to get a husband who really understands himself.

" Thank you very much, Mas, all this time you always support my every decision, I will definitely try to be a good mother and wife, for you and our children", said Dila while glazed.

" Now there is only Ms. Siti who has breakfast, mumpung porridge chicken is still anget, let her baby sister is the same me", just finished Fatma talk, two sisters enter the room, one brought Dila ration, one brought Dila ration, another one was about to bathe baby Dede.

" His baby sister let me take a bath first, his mother please have a lot of breakfast first, is Asi already out Miss Dila?", ask the Sister who put Dila's ration on the small table beside the bed.

" Thank God it was out this morning Sus, quite a lot too", replied Dila briefly.

" Good, then from now on baby sister can just drink exclusive Asi for 6 months, do not give the other first yes Ma'am" said the sister.

Dila. nodded in understanding. The nurse who carries a tray of food, helps the nurse who wants to bathe the baby sister.

" Do you have a name for your little one Mr Indra?", asked the Sister.

Indra shook his head, "had not thought before Sus, let me discuss it again with my wife" Indra said as she looked at Dila with a fluffy smile.

" Well then, actually it's for the hospital requirements, so if you can discuss with your wife as soon as possible sir, search the internet now the names are good-nice it's a lot", said Sister while bathing Dede baby Dila.
