Secrets of the Former (Love Left Behind)

Bonchap: Moving

The wall clock was still showing at 2am when Gantari woke up from her sleep with widened eyes. His gaze was fixed for quite a long time on his own stomach.

Gantari got up and leaned her body towards the head of the bed. Then, shake Nevan's body lying next to her.

Nevan who was soundly sleeping was of course surprised. His face was so wary when he saw Gantari's serious look.

"What's? Why?"

"Mas!"

"Why, Dihyan?" Nevan got up quickly and sat facing Gantari, worried. Even though his own head still feels a little dizzy.

"He's moving."

"Who?" Nevan brushed her gaze across the alert room, focusing her attention on the window. He inched down from the bed with messy hair after turning to the wall clock first. Then, he walked over to the window and revealed the curtains. There's nothing.

"Mas!"

The window is safe. There was no suspicious movement outside either. Then, he turned to Gantari who was still sitting on the bed.

"Where's that moving, Dihyan?" nevan asked in a loud voice.

"In the stomach."

Nevan's pillow face looked confused. His brain performance slows down when he wakes up in this state of shock. "What?"

"Your child moves in the stomach."

"Whose son?"

"Your son!" gantari spray is irritated. He comes down, pulls Nevan's hand and takes her back to bed. Then they sat down on the edge of the bed.

Gantari smiled, then pointed Nevan's hand in her hand toward the stomach. His gaze softened.

"So the movement was strong" said Gantari slowly.

Nevan's blood rippled. Although he had not felt any movement, but hearing Gantari tell a story so made him get swept away.

"Try calling, Mas."

Nevan stared at Gantari long ago, then slowly his gaze began to turn on his wife's distended stomach. Heart warms. He leaned his body and began to slowly rub Gantari's stomach.

"It's papa, honey." Uh! Just talking like that, it felt like Nevan had wanted to cry. Gantari is just as good.

"You're in good health, yeah. Be fine there and don't bother mama."

Nevan widened her eyes. He looked up at Gantari, then a big smile rose on his lips. "Move!"

Gantari. He rubbed Nevan's hair, as Nevan looked down and focused on her stomach again.

"Maybe this is the one whose name is falling in love without meeting." Nevan muttered, then continued, "Assalamualaikum, dear! Introduce, I'm your first love candidate."

Gantari chuckled, but then she was startled when Nevan shouted. "Move again, Dihyan. Oh God!"

A single tear finally escaped the corner of the eye of Nevandra Ardiona. He kissed Gantari's stomach long enough with his eyes closed. Some prayers he was asking for. Then, he straightened his body and switched by hugging Gantari. Kissing Wife's forehead.

"May this happiness always be Allah's Ridhoi."

Gantari couldn't bear to not cry either. He also shed tears and returned Nevan's embrace tightly.

"Aamiin, yes Rabb."

I believe that every human being has their own happy story and their own sad story. Stop, comparing your happy story and your sad story with others. Stop asking others to take responsibility for your happiness and sadness. Your feelings are your own responsibility.

Happy with lots of happiness!
