My Talaq!

Finicky

Early in the morning, Diana awoke from her sleep when she heard a baby. His drowsiness was still there because almost all night he did not sleep cradling his fussy son inexplicably.

The tiny baby squirms while making an oooaaaa sound. The typical sound of a baby crying when looking for something or may be uncomfortable with what he is wearing.

"Dear you why? Thirsty want mimi? Pup, or pee?" Diana chattered to pick up the baby and then checked the baby's buttocks. But not wet or not smelly pup.

"It's dry but why is she crying?"

Oooaa...

Diana was confused about what to do. This is the first time she has taken care of a baby alone.

"Dear you want mimi?" Diana thought her son wanted to drink breast milk. Then he confirmed the position of his sling and removed one of Arkana's sources of nutrients.

But, baby Arka does not want to take a sip of nutrition. He even more crying loudly moving his head refused the breast milk given by his mother.

"What's wrong with you, son? Mother should what? Mother is confused if you keep this up." Diana felt sad when her son refused her hand.

Diana put Arkana's source of nutrients back in her package. He tried to calm the son in his soulful embrace by stroking Arkana's back and occasionally patting Arka's buttocks.

Diana also tried to stand up to calm her son. His heart was restless and could not calm the child. He was confused as to what way to stop Arka from crying.

Arka's cry sounded outside the room. Mama Karin who was cooking at Cici's company was surprised.

"That's Arka's voice, isn't it? She was crying so hard, why?" Karin to save processed food to be cooked and immediately wash her hands to quickly meet the granddaughter and Diana.

"Yes Aunty, that's Arka. The crying is so strong." Cici first stood up and immediately ran to Diana's room and then followed by mama Karin.

"Diana, what happened to Arka?" Cici asked after entering the room.

Diana looked back and her eyes were already tearful. "Cici, Mama, I don't know why Arka? He doesn't want me to suckle. From that cry on," said Diana sobbed small sobbing so confused.

"Oh God, Dee. Don't cry, baby. Arka will be fussy if the mother is also sad. You need to calm down, baby." Karin and Cici approach Diana and Karin turns to take Arka from Diana's sling and try to calm her grandson down.

"I can't calm down when my son isn't calm either." Diana could not hide her panic. Cici rubbed Diana's back trying to calm the woman after giving birth.

"You sit down first, Dee. Calm your feelings so that your child will also calm down." Cici invited Diana to sit on the bedside.

Karin was still trying to calm her grandson who was still crying. Even his face was red.

"Oma's grandson why are you crying? Good boy, Soleh why baby? You want mimi?"

"He refused, Mah. Even the tip in the bite so do not want mimi," reply Diana after more calm was not as sweet as earlier. But still he was still worried about Arka who was still crying.

"Maybe ee or pee," said Cici.

"No, Ci. The bed is still dry."

Karin and Cici exchanged lyrics, they became worried because their son Diana was still crying without stopping.

"Try to call Fikri. Who knows, he knows a powerful way to calm a crying baby" Karin said.

"Bli Fikri's gone to work, Auntie. He delivered the ordered goods to the customer, said Diana who told him," replied Cici.

At dawn, Fikri first woke up and prepared all the needs of Diana starting from clothes and breakfast porridge that he bought from sellers just any way home.

Fikri also cleaned Arka's diaper and changed each of her clothes so that the baby was more comfortable in moving after the fertilizer was exposed to dirt and pee itself.

"Yes, Mah. I'm the one who sent the Fikri blister to the customers. I was confused ahrus asked for help who else but him. Customers also must be waiting for the series of interest because they first send money. So inevitably Diana told Bli Fikri," said Diana explained about the incident this morning before Karin and Cici woke up.

Karin seemed to be breathing out. "Then what do we do? Arka couldn't stop crying. Poor face is red." Karin was not able to withstand her sadness until she shed tears could not bear to see a tiny baby crying.

"Dreaming mother, why are you crying baby? How do you feel, do you miss your father? Do you miss your opa?" Diana spoke without thinking about why her mouth could even ask such a question.

However, it is undeniable that the speech he threw was able to make Arka instantly speechless but returned to crying again.

"He was silent when he heard his father and his opinion. Does he miss them both?" cici said astonished.

Diana and Karin were silent. Karin quickly picks up her cell phone looking for no Iqbal, the person Karin contacts frequently during Danu's time in prison and when she's not home.

Heather...

"Assalamualaik."

"Vaalaikumsalam. Iqbal, did you just wake up? Can Auntie please go to the police station?" Karin glanced at Diana while rubbing the head of Arka who was still crying.

"Auntie's a baby who's crying? Poor thing?" instead of answering Iqbal asked back.

"You please go to the police station. Right now, Iqbal."

"Well, Auntie would like to talk to Zio? Aunty just call her number she's already parole."

"What?! It's free!" Karin is shocked to find out that her son has just come out of prison. When he heard Zio was free, Jaring immediately dialed the number his son used to have.

Tuuut...

It turns out that the call was re-connected. "Let's pick up, Zio. Your son cries to hear his father's voice."

*****

Danu's rest was interrupted by the sound of her cell phone which kept waking her who was busy dreaming with Diana.

"Who in the morning has held my dream?" he muttered while touching the nightstand that was on the edge of the bed. And then Danu picked it up.

"Hallo."

"Zioo... Are we free, son? Why didn't you say you were free?" the shrillness of Karin makes Danu jump in shock.

"Mama..." Danu sat himself down.

"You said what, your number from yesterday could not be reached. Papa's number is equally unattainable."

******

Miraculously, baby Arka suddenly fell silent from her cries listening to the voice of the man on the phone. The baby even tried to open his narrow eyes with his mouth twitching.

Karin and Diana looked at each other and turned to look at Cici. Apparently true if baby Arka misses her father. Karin brought her phone closer to her grandson's ear and hardened the volume.

Unlike the case with Diana who is trying to regulate her heartbeat so as not to pound constantly. Diana also missed the man's voice.

"I'm sorry Mom and Dad, Zio. We have business."

"What business is it to forget his son and be difficult to contact? If papa is still taking care of work. Lah Mama? Just take a trip to Bali. Ck, durhakim's mother."

"Haoooo..."

Degs...

Danu was stunned to hear the baby's voice. Likewise with Diana and the others who were also shocked baby Arka voiced.

"Baby voice?"
