POV Ark


It was nice to see my wife smiling and laughing. Since she was pregnant often she was easily angry, especially if her wishes were not fulfilled, she was immediately angry, speaking indistinctly even to the point of crying.


Sometimes I go awry in the face of his frequently changing attitude. At first I thought that she was like that because she was pregnant because she had to. After all, he and I got married because they were married. Moreover, he also had time to delay to have children first.


But such thoughts crumbled when I consulted the obstetrician, browsing the internet, sometimes also asking for an opinion on mamah. The answer is almost the same. Most likely it is the influence of pregnancy hormones that make the mood and emotions become unstable.


At first I was hesitant when I would tell my story. I'm afraid you'll give me answers I don't want. As Dino said, one of the employees in the office. His wife was also pregnant two months earlier than Caca. Since his pregnant wife Dino often eat out sometimes stop by his mother's house to eat. Because since pregnancy his wife became lazy to cook. But Mother Dino's response was not exactly what she wanted. He said that Dino's wife was too much.


"Ah, basically males aja, manja, too lebay" That's what dino's mother said. But fortunately Dino was able to respond wisely. He can understand the circumstances of his wife and ignore the bad opinion of the woman who has given birth to him.


I was lucky to have a mother who could understand the situation of her son and daughter-in-law. Especially when you know that Caca is pregnant, you become overprotective. Every day she called asking about her daughter-in-law. Not infrequently I often get scolded when I come home late. The point is I should always put my wife's interests first.


Yesterday, when Mamah returned home and Rani was sick, Mamah wanted to rush to Jakarta. I want to accompany Caca. In the condition of Rani who has not recovered, mamah forced Rani to come to Jakarta. So that we can watch over both.


The arrival of mamah and Rani was welcomed by Caca. To the extent that he cried in his arms.


"Darling, eat lots of vegetables. Later finished eating milk with the fruit, it was mamah peeled, just eat it" Mamah spooned vegetables into a plate owned by Caca.


"Yes, thank you, ma'am" A sweet smile bloomed on my wife's lips.


When it comes to eating, you always control it. The word mama so that the child and mother remain healthy.


Ever since Mama came back to this house Caca laughed more often than angry. Unlike the previous days who were more angry.

"Well, the Caca nitip arc. It looks like later in the afternoon home late, because today's schedule is very crowded and finished lunch there is a meeting with clients in Bandung. But as much as possible I'll be home in time" I said at the dinner table.


"Without your asking, mama always did it Arka" Mamah spoke without looking at me, as she was busy eating chicken claws.


"Yes, Arka knows that. Arka thanked me for when Arka was not there, mamah replaced Arka's position to guard Caca" said I again.


"What are you talking about. Keeping Caca is also a mama's job. Mamah here because she knew how difficult the pregnancy was, so she accompanied her so that Caca could get through the hard times easily" Mamah stopped eating her claw and did not continue it again. It might not be good to eat while talking like this.


Mom got up from her seat and went into the kitchen to wash her hands. At the same time Caca was seen coming down the stairs still in his nightgown. Then walk towards me


"Kok I'm not waking up anyway?" His face was slightly bent from feeling annoyed.


"Sorry baby, I didn't wake you up on purpose. Last night you were sleep deprived. That's why I let you wake up bad luck"


"Eh my mother-in-law is awake, want breakfast now?" Ask your mom when you return from washing your hands. Then sit on the chair next to Caca.


"No, then. Caca was still lazy to make breakfast" he replied in a powerful voice.


"Make milk instead. Wait a minute" Without waiting for an answer from Caca, Mamah stood up again and prepared a special milk for pregnant women.


I also finished my breakfast in the morning. "Honey, I'm leaving first" Pamitku.


"Will be in Bandung?" Last morning after the dawn prayer I told Caca about today's schedule.


"God willing, will you come?" My toot.


"No. Why go there? Just mending at home" he replied looking indifferent.


"Who knows if you want to go for a walk" I offered him again, who knows he is interested in going to Bandung.


"That's not the name of the streets. But ngintilin" I laughed at Caca's last words.


"Tock you pinter anyway" I pinched his nose because I felt anxious.


"Honey, here's the milk in the drink first" Mamah put the milk in front of Caca.


"Thank you mah" The milk was directly in the sip until it left only a quarter.


"Not finished?" My toot.


"Udah full"


"Yes, it's not done, then vomit" said mamah.


"If so, now is the time to make money first. Papa's son is fine at home with mom and omah" I rub Caca's stomach still flat and kiss her repeatedly.


Caca laughed at my silly behavior.


"Have gone there. Daritadi said to go. But don't go away" Gerutu Caca but this time accompanied by a smile.


"Dear, this is going now. Yes, I did say yes. Assalamualaikum "I stretched out my hand and kissed him with reverence. I responded by peeling her forehead. Then I also shook my hands.

The car is traveling at medium speed because in working hours like this, the road is prone to traffic jams.


During the trip my eyes remained focused on the laptop that was on my lap. While the one driving the car is Mr. Faisal.


I only talk to him occasionally so that things are not awkward.


"Sir, last week Mr. Faisal went to the hospital, right?" Much


"Already sir"


"What does the doctor say?" Askaqua.


"The doctor is advised to take therapy"


"Oohh, how are you? already in therapy?" Ask again.


"Not sir?"


"Why?"


"That's sir, anu still haven't had a chance" he replied with a slight nervousness.


"How much does therapy cost, sir?" I already know what Mr. Faisal is worried about is the cost. But he did not dare to say it.


"No therapy sir, said his doctor can with every waking up in the movements of his legs. That's enough"


"Pak Faisal doesn't have to worry about costs. Later let me finance it" I said reassured him.


"No need sir, Mr. Arka has helped me a lot. This time let me handle it myself."


"Sir, don't reject it. It's an order from me" Again I emphasize my words so that there is no rejection.


"Thank you very much Mr. Arka" I gave a glimpse of Mr. Faisal who was behind the wheel. His hands rubbed the corners of his eyes.


I'm back to focusing on the laptop screen. Back to studying the files.


So focused on the laptop screen, I did not realize that the car had entered the factory parking area.


After delivering me, I asked Mr. Faisal to go home. And pick me up back at work, of course, waiting for my call.
