In the other room, Riana was sobbing. However, in a closed state.
"Hi Mommy!"
The greeting uttered by the beautiful daughter who came into Riana's dream. The child who was very similar to him, saw the girl as looking in the mirror.
"Mommy, Brother is happy because now Daddy has always been next to Mommy. Daddy will always take care of Mommy and sister."
The boy's smile was very similar to Aksa's. So sweet and charming. However, in the dream Riana could not hug the child's body. There was a very thick barrier between them.
"Mommy, cut Mommy down. Brother is okay to go ahead of Mommy, Daddy and also sister. My brother is happy here. Everyone loves their brother. Everyone back together, brother. My brother is comfortable here. This is the real sister's place. Mommy don't cry for Brother anymore, yeah. Poor little sister."
The child's hand was like gently rubbing the tears of Riana who had fallen. He just mutely can't say anything.
"Loast sister, My. Protect sister. Tell your sister that she has a sister. It's just, Big Brother can't play directly with him. Sister can only take care of sister from here, from the majesty. Brother will be a good brother to sister. I promise you, My."
No one is heartbroken to hear this kind of speech. Riana just cried and cried in her dream.
"My, sorry Brother. Brother can't always be present in Mommy's dream, in Daddy's dream. Brother promises, Brother will continue to beg the nanny Brother to be able to enter into Mommy's dream. Hugging Mommy's body warmly. Kiss Daddy's cheeks. Mommy's sister is also Daddy. Say hello to Daddy, My."
The boy's hand-welding ended Riana's dream. He woke up with his eyes wet. Riana sat down and looked straight ahead. He woke up from his sleep because of a dream that felt real. His chest felt really tight.
"Is that my son? A child that doesn't develop in my womb?"
Clear thread drips just like that. Riana's heart was not completely willing. There is still pain that feels. Fetal money should be there, giving up instead. Which mother will not be sad?
Now, Riana had lowered her head in with a trembling body. His hands tightly hugged his stomach which was slightly bent.
"I'm sorry Mommy, son. You should still be there with your sister." A very bitter and trembling speech that came out of Riana's mouth.
The door of the room opened, Aksa who had just finished giving a seven-minute lecture to the sister was surprised to see his wife who had sat down and cried.
"Dear."
Aksa ran over and immediately hugged Riana's body. Riana's cry became even more confused Aksa.
"So is sick? We're going to the doctor now." Aksa's worried face was already clearly visible. However, Riana shook her head instead. His hands hugged the husband's waist.
"Darling, if anyone is sick say. It's enough we lost one of our child candidates" Aksa said very gently.
Hearing the husband's words, Riana now looked up at Aksa.
"The girls ... come again to Ri's dream."
Aksa tightened her embrace. Before coming into Riana's dream, the daughter came into Aksa's dream. However, Aksa did not tell the wife. He did not want his wife to be sad anymore.
"Daddy!"
The boy's shout made Aksa smile. He ran towards Aksa. Aksa's hands were wide open. However, there was a barrier that made them unable to come into direct contact. The boy was always cheerful, as if he was happy with his home now.
"Jaga Mommy yeah, Dad. Don't stay with Mommy. If Daddy comes home late, Mommy. I don't want Mommy to worry. Brother also did not want to see Mommy's tears drip again. It's not Mommy or Daddy's fault. This is all the will of the owner of the universe."
The dream happened when Riana was hospitalized when she was deprived of fluids. It's not like a dream, but it's like a real one. How not, the boy seemed to be right in front of him. He continued to tell stories with laughter, like children in general. The boy did not seem to be far away from him. The obstacle was not blocking the closeness of the child and the young father. Aksa will be a good listener and occasionally chimed in the girl's speech.
"Son, please come to Mommy's dream huh. Mommy must miss you. Want to see you," pinta Aksa as the boy gazes lovingly at Aksa.
The boy quickly nodded. Her smile was so sweet that Aksa's heart was sliced.
"Daddy happy and sad. Try if you live, surely our family will be crowded."
That is how Aksa's heart says.
"Daddy, the presence or absence of a Brother in the family of Daddy and Mommy. That doesn't guarantee your family's happy. Happiness is created by oneself."
The child can read the hearts of others. A man in white came to the girl and took her away from Aksa.
"Sister dear Daddy."
That's what Aksa remembers to this day. A very heart-wrenching sentence with a wave of hands and a distinctive smile that he had.
"Darling, yes. Pity our son" said Aksa, wiping away the tears of his wife. She kissed Riana's forehead for a long time.
"You better rest" Aksa said.
Riana laid her body with her hands coiled around Aksa's stomach. His face was also buried in the chest of his beloved husband. The soft caress of Aksa's hand brought comfort to her.
"Quite sad," said softly Aksa. "The love of our prospective children is growing," he added.
Riana looked at the husband with red eyes as well. Aksa looked at him with warmth.
"Si's already happy there. Now, it's time we're happy for his sister who needs more affection for both of us" he said.
Riana nodded slowly and exhaled a rough breath. "Can we go to Mother's grave tomorrow?" Without a second thought Aksa agreed.
The next afternoon, in accordance with the wishes of the wife, Aksa and Riana went to the grave of the mother. Before leaving, Aksa and Riana consult first to Iyan, Riana's sister who has the advantage of seeing invisible creatures.
"It's okay. Iyan will tell Om Uwo to take care of Kak Ri."
That is what Iyan said. The sign is still in the safe zone. After all Riana had often asked for a pilgrimage to the mother's grave. However, Iyan always forbid because of the condition of the content of Riana who is very young. Too dangerous.
The two of them walked hand in hand. They were standing next to a tomb called Amanda Maharani.
"Assalamualaikum, Mother."
The greeting sounded different in Aksa's ear. Riana's tone seemed to hold a very deep longing.
Riana placed the flower she was carrying on top of the mother's belly button. He was already squatting next to the belly button with a soft hand rubbing the black Nissan.
"It's been a long time, Bun." Riana's lips smiled wryly.
"If, face to face with Mother .. all the words Ri wants to express as if they are gone. Ri, can't express it. Sentence after sentence was like it was stuck in the throat," Riana said.
Aksa's hand had gently rubbed the wife's shoulder, as if giving strength to Riana.
"Actually .. so much Ri wants to tell Mother. There have been many sentences that Ri has strung together for Ri to convey. But ...."
Riana's body trembled, Aksa embracing his sobbing wife. Losing a mother is like losing half of her soul. No matter how bad her mother was in life, she was still the most noble woman for Riana and Iyan. He who has been Sudi risked his life to present extraordinary children.
"Tell me, honey. Don't be held alone." Warm and affectionate kiss Aksa gives.
Riana took a deep breath first before she spoke. His eyes continued to look at the mother's belly button.
"Everything is hard to say. Ri, I can only shed tears without saying. Ri's heart is still injured if it is in front of the Mother's navel." Riana's voice shook. However, he tried to continue his words again.
"Bun, soon Ri will be a mother. There is life in Ri's stomach. If Mother is still there, Mother will be very happy. This is the first grandchild for Mother." The heavy sigh became his speech pause.
"The same is the case with Dad who always bring Ri because Dad does not want anything to happen to his future grandchildren" he continued again with a thin smile arch engraved on his face.
"It looks like Dad loves his granddaughter more than Ri." Laughter had to come out of his mouth.
Aksa gently rubbed the wife's shoulder again, making Riana even tightly hug Aksa's body. She let out tears in the chest of the husband's field.
Riana would always cry if she visited her mother's navel. The place that became the eternal home for the mother was like carrying an invisible wound for Riana. Wounds that never had a cure.
"Mother, pray for Riana and our future child, yes. Hopefully everything is fine and the delivery process is launched without any obstacles. I'm sure you're smiling happily up there" Aksa said.
"Mother will soon be a mother. I'm sure she'll be a great mom like Mommy."
Riana's hand grew tighter and tighter around Aksa's waist. Signaling he's getting sobbing. Aksa cupped his wife's face. He gently wiped the tears that had soaked his wife's face.
"Don't cry, Mother will be sad if every time you come here you shed tears." A kiss landed on Riana's eyelids alternately.
Now, Aksa's hand gently rubbed Riana's stomach. Smiles are also beautifully curved.
"Son, this is Grandma's house. You are now in front of his eternal home. When you were born, Daddy promised to bring you here and meet Grandma. Although Grandma only lives by name and navel, Daddy is sure Grandma will always look after you from up there. Stay healthy, son. Tomorrow or the day after tomorrow it's not just Daddy and Mommy who are here, but you too."
