Pregnant Without Husband

7. First pay

That morning, Rosa eagerly left for work. Once there it turns out the store is not even open. So he sat on the porch of the store while opening the pregnancy site as usual. He had to find a lot of additional knowledge so that later he could give birth normally, easily and all healthy.

"Rose." Rosa immediately looked away at the origin of the sound.

"When did you sit there?" ask the shop owner again.

"About 20 minutes ago ma'am" said Rosa, smiling.

"Oh Allah, you are diligent." praise the shopkeeper to make Rosa smile again because she was embarrassed. Rushing he went into the store and helped the store owner tidy up the entire stock sale.

After 5 minutes passed, a friend came and immediately started his work.

"You've come from earlier?" whispers Anita to Rosa.

"Yes, ma'am." Rosa nodded.

"Don't be too diligent, the salary is just a little." whispered Anita again who made Rosa chuckle.

"Neverything has to be a small salary, which is important to be grateful for a blessing."

After that, one by one the buyers came so that the two could not tell the story anymore.

"Rosa it's your turn to eat, spit it out" Anita said as she flicked her hand at Rosa.

"Yes mbak." rushes Rosa to a place reserved for employees to eat rest and pray.

After washing her hands, Rosa immediately scoops her food voraciously. In a moment, the food was over.

"You want to add more Ros?" ask the shopkeeper to see Rosa eating voraciously. Rosa blushed in embarrassment because her boss asked like that.

"That's enough, ma'am. No need to." Rosa shakes.

"May I ask you something?"

"Ask what ma'am?" Rosa raised her head to look at her boss's face. For a moment the owner let out a long breath before finally asking.

"What.... Are you pregnant?" the question just slid. Over time her stomach will grow, and everyone will know if she is pregnant.

"Yes ma'am." answered Rosa while lowering her face.

"Why did your face change like that? What question did mom offend you?" asked the store owner to feel bad for asking too far.

"Rosa is fine" answered Rosa, raising her face and smiling at her boss.

"Your face looks young, the age of a mother's son who has just been in 1st grade High School this year."

"Yes, ma'am? My age means something." Rosa said with a chipped laugh to break the awkwardness between them.

"Why not go to school, baby is still young already want to have a baby sister." Rosa sighed again before answering the question.

"You want to continue the school, ma'am, but what power God wills other. I was pregnant first and my boyfriend was irresponsible."

Instantly the shop owner's face immediately looked unpleasant, because it had opened the wound of the little girl who was in front of him at that time. He immediately hugged Rosa because he was concerned about the bad things that happened to him.

"I'm sorry, I've gone too far to ask. May you and your baby be strong. Mother, can not imagine if it happened to the mother's daughter. Is it also as strong as you and your family" said the store owner while stroking Rosa's back, unaware if she shed tears because she heard Rosa's confession as it is.

"Mom crying?" rosa asked after breaking down the hug, and watched the boss's face closely.

"Mother was moved by your struggle Ros." Mother could not help but hold back her tears and embrace Rosa again.

Like yesterday, the store owner reminded Rosa again because it was her hour home.

"It's Ros for your baby's sister" the store owner handed him a black plastic bag.

"Is this mom?" asked Rosa while frowning.

"Homemade. Let's get healthier mom and baby. Free for you, let's take it." explained the boss with a smile.

'Said mbak Anita bu Cici her man is stingy, but why am I in love with pregnant milk?' rosa's mind as she scrunched her forehead.

"Em... but later in my pay cut no ma'am?" ask Rosa a little embarrassed. Which made Cici's mom chuckle.

"If it's free, the sign is not asked to pay Ros." he explained.

"Thank you ma'am." Rosa smiled as she received the black plastic bag.

Actually Rosa also wanted to check her content on the nearest midwife, but was embarrassed to remember her boyfriend was not responsible.

During this time he also never drank pregnant milk because in the beginning he did not want the presence of the baby. But over time he can accept because of the support of people who are nearby.

"Bikin what's Ros?" asked her mother when she saw Rosa was still busy in the kitchen.

"Bikin bu milk." answered Rosa while stirring a glass of green bean-flavored pregnant milk.

"Susu's pregnant." murmured his mother.

"Yes ma'am, thank God that Cici ma'am gave me this milk for free."

"He knows you're pregnant?" Rosa answered her mother's question.

"At first Rosa was ashamed, but Cici was sympathetic to Rosa. And just as he was coming home he gave this milk."

"Alhamdulillah, that's a sign that many love you, so you have to keep the spirit yes." Susi stroked Rosa's head.

A month ago Rosa worked at the grocery store owned by Bu Cici. And that afternoon before returning home Rosa received her first paycheck envelope. Not only that, but Cici also gave her pregnant milk again.

"Thank you Miss Cici, Rosa can only pray, may her kindness be returned to God" Rosa said after receiving it all.

"Aamiin yes rabbal alamin. Prayer is enough for my mother. Let's go home soon. Surely you are tired all day work." said Ms. Cici while stroking Rosa's stomach.

Arriving at home, as usual Rosa will clean up new selonjoran while opening her cellphone.

"Astaghfirullah, I was given Cici's salary" murmured Rosa. He immediately took his bag and reached into the envelope.

"Oh Allah, thank God. May I be blessed." Rosa glazed when she finished counting the red money sheet which amounted to 1 million.

Rosa is very grateful, for having such a kind boss and coworkers. So he felt very comfortable and at home working in the store.

"Not sleeping Ros?" ask her mother who is standing in the doorway of her room. Rosa also nodded.

"Mom, come here dong." whined Rosa while patting her bed.

"What?" ask his mother after he sits down.

"Alhamdulillah was Rosa's payday ma'am, this." Like a little boy Rosa showed her first paycheck to her mother. His mother smiled at the joy that adorned his son's face.
