The sound of laughter welcomes dusk in the afternoon. Almost five o'clock in the afternoon, the father and son and his granddaughter who were on the three-wheeled train threw jokes at each other as well as temptations to Baby El.

''Hey, how are you. ?'' Eva shouted to her feet, while Vio got closer and they both hugged each other in front of Papa Shidiq.


''Vio's good news Ev, what about you.?''


''Okay too.'' Answer Eva.


A hug was released, then Vio's dark brown netra pointed towards Eva's stomach.


''Come, it looks like yes.'' Her exclaims were enthusiastic, gently rubbing Eva's slightly bloated stomach.


''This is a very small Vi, it does not look very much yet..'' Gutted her stomach for a moment.


''This is sitting with us.'' Invite Eva to pull Vio's wrist. Vio just complies.


''Really, how many months has it been. ?''


''Around three months, oh yes what time it gets home. ?''


''Around two dozen, maybe.'' Vio replied unsure. ''Hmmm, here are some toys for Baby El.'' Submit two paper bags to Eva.


''Really, thank you aunt.'' Eva represents Baby El.
