Patience of My Husband

-

Being in the arms of the Ark was a very happy thing for me. As if not to take off this hug.

"Darling, we're going to the room. Here the wind is strong, later you get wind if later here" Whisper Arka and will release his arms. But I'm getting my arms tight.

"No way, I still want to be hugged" my whine spoiled.

"But not here. I don't want you to get sick. The night wind is not good for you and also our future children. We're in" Arka persuaded.

I resignedly I nodded to him "But hold ya" I said spoiled.

Without saying Arka immediately lifted my body, ala bridal style. A beautiful smile covered her lips. Then I put my hand on her neck.

When going to open the sliding door Arka experiencing a little difficulty. "I'm the one who opens" I said.

I slide that slightly heavy sliding door. It was open and...

Pauseagg

"Aw" I groaned in pain as my head hit the edge of the sliding door. Arka quickly lowered my body on the sofa beside the sliding door.

"Darling, sorry I didn't mean it" he said in a panic and felt guilty. Doesn't stop Arka rubbing my head, looking for the sore center point.

"Aw" A small shout came out as Arka stomped on the sick part.

"illness?" Ask Arka.

"If I'm not sick, I moan" I'm annoyed. Not because my head hit. Because the question is ridiculous. It's hard for me to be in pain but I'm still being asked again.

"I'm sorry. I was not intentionally. You wait here for a second. I'll buy you some medicine first" Arka stood up straight away, but my hand grabbed her hand.

"It's late at night. Don't go. I'm fine" I said softly while pointing at the clock that turned out to be almost eleven o'clock at night. Not too late actually for in the crowded and crowded city area. Because at a time like this there are still many people who pass by in the streets. It's just that I feel sorry for Arka. He panicked enough to feel guilty. It was also my fault. I thought the door was as wide as the sliding door in my room. Turns out I was wrong.

"But you..."

"I'm fine" I assured him.

"I compress using warm water?" Said the Ark that I answered with a single nod. While waiting for Arka to prepare warm water, I put my body on the sofa, drowsiness began to attack me. Slowly my eyes began to dim and I fell asleep.

"Tanteeee...." Luna's tiny voice was heard repeatedly in my ears. But my eyes are not open. "Tanteeee"

I moved my body and smiled but still with my eyes closed. " Iiihhh Auntie let's get up, let's pray at dawn first"

"Ehhhmmm" I squirm to relax my body.

"Tante is so lazy" Gerutu Luna. I opened my eyes to see her. Her lips were made a little forward and it made me laugh.

"Kiss first dong, let Aunt wake up immediately" I said.

"That's why, Auntie hasn't had a bath"

"Well, if you don't want to kiss, Aunt Bobo again." I pulled out a blanket to cover my face.

Luna quickly pulled my blanket and she kissed my face. From cheeks, forehead, nose and back to cheeks again. I laughed because I was amused by him. I replied to him by tickling his stomach. Now it was her turn to laugh.

"Ampuunn aunt, oomm toloongg, please Luna ooomm" Luna shouted to Arka because she could not stand the tickle. Arka who noticed the behavior of the two of us just smiled from a distance.

I feel tired and stop tickling him. Both of my hands pulled her little body into my arms and kissed the top of her head.

"Luna isn't the same as Auntie?" I asked in between my kisses. Luna quickly nodded her head.

"Aren't you just nagging?"

.

"Luna loves Auntie. Aunty's like a second mother to Luna." Hearing that, I felt so moved by her happiness. My tears welled up and didn't wait long to drip.

Luna who knew there was a water circle dripping her tiny hand immediately rubbed gently on my cheek.

"Why Auntie cry, Aunt does not like it if Luna considers Aunt like her own mother. Sorry Auntie made Aunt sad." Luna was crying in the arms I said.

The beautiful arka watching us slowly began to approach and hugged us both. Put himself on the side of the bed. Her hand gently stroked the top of Luna's head.

"Honey, Auntie is crying not because she's sad. But Aunt is very happy because Luna loves Auntie very much. Aunty and om are the same, very dear to Luna. Luna is hard to think of as a child." Arka explained to Luna.

Hearing Arka's words, Luna took off my arms and faced Arka.

"If Aunt is happy, why is Aunt crying?"

"Honey, someone is crying is not because his heart is sad. People crying can also be because he is very moved because he feels his heart is very happy" explained Arka again.

Luna seemed to think then she nodded repeatedly. "Oohh.so so"

"Luna is hard to understand. Now we pray first. Hunt's out of time" Bring Arka.

"Okay, Luna wants to wudhu first" Luna directly got out of bed and ran towards the bathroom.

"Because, you explained everything to Luna" I said. And in reply with nods and smiles.

After performing congregational prayers Arka took me and Luna out of the room. Just for a morning walk because it happened to be today's weekend so Arka did not go to the office.

"Where are we going, om?" Luna started to ask because the three of us were just walking down the sidewalk.

"We go for a walk, consider it a sport" replied Arka.

"Yes aampuunn, Luna thought she wanted to go to the playground" Luna patted her forehead which we then followed up with a laugh.

"Hahaha.we exercise first baby, the morning air is good for health. Especially on holidays like this, only a few vehicles pass by. The air is cleaner. Let's go to the park there." Arka pointed in a direction not far from where we were standing. There are some people walking, running, riding bicycles and even children who are cool playing ball.

"Horeeeee... We play there" Luna cheered because she knew it was a playground for children.

We arrived at the place we were headed. Someone came up to us and offered us his merchandise.

"Luna wants what color, baby?" Ask Arka as the merchant crouched down putting down his merchandise. An old man selling plastic balls and rubber balls.

"How many sir?" Ask Arka.

"Twenty thousand mas"

Arka took out a hundred thousand pieces of money from her wallet. "Take the change sir" said Arka when handing over the money.

"But I..."

"Udah sir is okay" Arka smiled at the ball seller's father.

"Thank you a lot. May the windfall be smooth and his family mas given health and kept away from all misfortune." The hand of the father touched Arka's shoulder as he said a prayer.

"Aamiin" Arka and I answered.

"May your trading run out quickly sir" Arka also gave a prayer for the father.

After the father left Arka accompanied Luna to play ball. While I walk slowly while moving my hands up and to the side. My body does feel stiff because it has never done zumba, jogging or aerobic.

Every now and then I smile watching Luna's adorable behavior. Especially when he felt annoyed because he could not kick the ball on target and Arka laughed at him. His lips immediately pursed.

But Luna's annoyance did not last long because Arka always teased her and made Luna laugh again.

After being satisfied to play Luna ran up to me who was sitting relaxed on the grass. "Udah ah. tired. Luna wanted to drink" Luna's breath was dull and the clothes she wore were wet with sweat.

"Capek huh?"I asked while rubbing the sweat on his forehead and also tidying his hair that began to fall apart.

Arka also sat down next to me and sipped the drink I had prepared.

"You going home now?" Much

"Later aunty. Rest first Luna is still tired" Luna lay herself on the green grass.

I just smiled to see it. Several times I wiped the sweat on his face that never receded using my palm. Yeah, 'cause I don't have a little towel. Because Arka didn't say where we were going.

"Smoke also dong sweatku" Arka close her head next to my thigh.

"Iiihhh, you are spoiled" Omelku.

"It's okay, baby. Naturally dong if spoiled with his own wife. Do you want me to be spoiled by others?" Archa Protest.

Instantly my hand pinched her arm "Aaww hurts dear" Arka rubbed her hand.

"Just try if you dare to mess around" I threatened with annoyance.

"I'm just kidding, baby, don't be mad. Besides I wouldn't like that either" Arka rubbed my hand slowly and kissed her. Makes me feel ashamed.

"I don't like you talking like that anymore" I said in an annoyed tone.

"Let's love yes"

"Go home, I'm tired" I asked. Arka and Luna just according to. We walked back to the hotel.

After returning from the park, I immediately bathed Luna because we would also take Luna for a walk.

Inside the bathroom, Luna did not stop chattering. "Tante, where are we going after the shower?" Ask Luna.

"Where do you want it, baby?" I asked him a question back.

"Ehm. Where is it..." Luna seemed to think. "Luna is confused, then ask the same about Arka first yes"

"Yes, honey. But wear clothes first. Get the shirt in the bottom closet. But remember, you can't wear clothes in front of Arka." I said as I wrapped the towel around his body.

"Yes Aunt. Later if there's Arka in Luna's room back here again for a change of clothes" Luna spoke in her innocent tone. Then she walked out of the bathroom and closed the door again.

I stripped off all my clothes and continued with the bathing ritual. I slowly rubbed the soap all over my body. I rubbed slowly on the flat part of my stomach and muttered "Quick grow up my dear, mom can't wait to see your development" My smile widened when I imagined that one day my queen's stomach would start to bulge along with the growth of my future child. I also imagined that someday there would be adorable movements in my stomach. I can't wait for such a time to come. How foolish of me to have ever wished to delay the presence of life in my womb. But now I am really looking forward to his presence.
