Chapters 4. First 'Meet's'

when mas bram accompanied me to check my injured hand, I saw the face of mas bram who was so warm.

I don't know what I'm thinking, again I can't take my eyes off of mas bram.

"it's satisfied to shower my face". said mas bram.

"ahhh... ". I looked for an excuse but didn't find the right one.

"uhh... I'm so ashamed".

"how's the wound doctor?  is it okay". asked mas bram.

"no problem sir, the wound is not too severe.it's just that his hands are not too much to make a move and make sure not to get wet.

"good doctor.

"this is the prescription medication, please take it at the pharmacy".

when the doctor gave me the prescription, I wanted to take it but mas bram took the prescription.

"let me take it". said mas bram.

"iyaa mas". answered me with a smile.

me and Bram walked to the pharmacy to get some medicine.

"you just wait here, let me take it".

"iya mas".I obeyed mas bram's orders.

I saw mas bram standing in line at the pharmacy, my eyes kept watching the mas bram from behind.

"apparently mas bram a good and caring person.even he was willing to queue for the sake of taking the medicine for me".

"karin.. karin. what the hell.conscious karin.. ". i made my own mind aware.

after a while, mas bram returned with medicine for me.

"this is your medicine, it must be taken to recover quickly".

"yes mas".I received the medicine given by mas bram.

" o yes, I bought ointment for your wound, so as not to imprint later.

"it's okay mas, later also lost itself".

"do you not know, if the burn is difficult to disappear and I don't want you to experience it". replied mas bram with a slight tone.

"yes mas".so far I can not argue mas bram.

"do you want to go home for a break".

"ahh no mas, I want to accompany alisya".

"alright". mas bram took my hand.

this is the first time after we got married mas bram holding my hand, it feels very warm.I feel like a new ABG child feeling the fall of Love.

as we walked towards the alisya treatment room, suddenly mas bram stopped his steps so that I accidentally hit the body of mas bram from behind.

"agghh.. sorry mas.

"hey..why be polite like that, I should be the one apologizing for stopping all of a sudden". Answer me bram while rubbing my head.

"what happened to bram?  why has his attitude changed for me? he's very attentive today".

"karin.. karin. why daydream". said mas bram.

"ahh no mas. o yes why did you stop?  what was?  ". ask me

"have you eaten?".

"hmm not yet mas".

"you want to eat with me".

"????"  I widened my eyeballs because I didn't believe the words of Mas Bram.

"he..!!!".

"ahh yes mas, let's eat". I still can't believe this time mas bram ngajak eat both.

I followed the steps of the bram mas who took me to the restaurant next to the hospital.

"gold.... ". I pulled a little bit off the end of the mas bram shirt.

"what's karin? you don't like to eat in this restaurant". said mas bram.

"no bram, not that".

"keep??". mas bram seemed curious what I wanted to say.

"we should not eat it for long. Kasian alisya we have lived long".

"jeez karin, kirain what's wrong. don't worry, so I've called mama and papa to take care of his eyebrows for a while.

"ahh yes mas".

actually, it's just the reason I told you not to take long when we ate together, because I still feel awkward if both with mas bram.

"sit down on karin". mas bram pulled a chair for me.

"thank you". I replied with a smile.

I was glued when I saw the mas bram sitting right in front of me. Everything was very clear in my eyes, I saw the warm face of mas bram, his sparkling eyes and his very charming smile.

"karin, what do you want to order". mas bram showed me the menu book.

"hmmm what yes.I ordered spicy grilled chicken mas only". because I was nervous as long as I chose the menu.

"that's it, there's nothing else.

"no mas". answered me with my head down.

"okay, we order steak 2 servings, spaghetti 1 serving but that carbonara yes and glasyesoup with bread 1 yes. drink blue punch 1 and ocean milk 1 yes". bram quickly selects the menu.

"well sir, wait a minute". replied the waiter.

"mas, why so many messages. keep my order why not mention".

"you are weird, at home we have often eaten chicken, besides you have to eat a lot. The food I ordered is all very good for you.

"alright mas".I just accept what mas bram said.

"who hurt his eyebrows, why should I eat so much.

"you're not happy, I'm eating together". secretly mas bram noticed the expression of my manyun face.

"ahh gk mas, I'm very happy even". I showed my smile at mas bram.

as we waited for the order to arrive, me and bram both fell silent and played our phones.

still clearly visible our awkwardness with each other.Bram usually do not care too much with me, suddenly he attention and invite me to eat both.

I don't know what possessed mas bram, until his attitude changed towards me.

"mas". call me in a slow tone.

"why karin".

"why are you taking me out to eat together?".

"hmm is there anything wrong if I invite my own wife to eat.

"not that mas, it's strange that it feels. mas who from the beginning thought of me as a surrogate mother, did not care about me suddenly because of the attention and invited me to dinner together.

feeling like this was my chance to talk to her, I said what was on my mind.

"excuse me for my words karin". mas bram held my hand.

"mu mean?".

"sorry if my words have been offended and hurt at the time, I didn't feel willing to share my life with anyone, it's all because of the sudden papa betrothed me to you.

I paused for a moment to hear the words of mas bram. On the one hand I understood the feelings of him who could not forget his wife and on the other hand I did not understand why he quickly changed towards me.

"for one week, I've seen enough of your sincerity, your sincerity towards alisya. I have felt happiness in him since you were present.

"but mas..... ".

"this is the order, please enjoy". said the waiter who prepared the food for us.

"well mas".

when we started dinner, bram was busy cutting my steak for me.

"you ate this one I just cut it into pieces". mas bram gave me a plate containing steak that had been cut for me.

"thank you". I gladly accepted it.

"eat, in the future we will often dinner together with alisya".

uhukk uhukk....

"it turns out mas bram has been thinking about dinner for the future".

"karin, you'll be fine". mas bram quickly gave me a drink.

"no, I'm fine.thank you.

"slow down eat it, don't rush it". mas bram continues to eat it.

after dinner we went back to the hospital, because it had been too long since we left alisya with mom and dad.

when me and bram opened the door, alisya was seen eating with her grandparents.

"papa". said alisya when he saw the arrival of mas bram.

"honey". mas bram immediately hugged alisya.

"why did you guys so long bram. alisya from earlier just keep on saying ", said mama

"sorry ma, I took a dinner last night.

"yes bram is fine". replied papa who was next to alisya.

I was just silent standing about 5 meters from his alisya. I was afraid mama mas bram was still angry at me because his alisya hurt.

"karin, here son". papa called me.

"i.iya pa". I immediately approached to mas bram.

"mother". alisya grabbed my hand.

"dear Iyaa, get well soon yes.so we can go home with papa and mommy". I stroked his head alisya.

"iya mama". so looks so sweet when alisya calls me mother.

"because you have returned, mom and dad went home first. let me know if there is anything with alisya".

"yes ma, be careful on the road". replied mas bram who delivered mama and papa out of the room.

I am happy to see that alisya is healthy and can talk again with me. The heart is a little calm to see her cheerful face again.

"sadly, forgive mother yes. mother can not take good care of her eyebrows, until her eyebrows hurt.

"mother, don't cry". said alisya.

"mommy doesn't cry baby". I keep kissing her brow.

mas Bram who saw me hugging his brow he came to us and hugged me with his eyebrows.

"mas I'm sorry".I looked at the face of mas bram.

"don't apologize karin, it's not your fault". replied mas bram gently.

"alisya dear mother and papa". said alisya with a powerful voice.

"mother also loves alisya".

"papa too". answered mas bram by kissing his eyebrows.

I felt very happy, it turned out that I was a very warm and loving person.I do not regret receiving this matchmaking, because I was given a very good husband and child.

"thank you, bram, for being in my life as my husband, and thank you for being my mother's child".

"alisya rest, dear, mother".

"alisya wants to sleep with mom and dad". replied alisya who kept hugging me.

"honey, here we can not sleep three. Mother promise, tomorrow when we go home, we will sleep three as papa". I tried to convince alisya.

"dear, alisya sleeps with mom. papa sleeps on the sofa". replied mas bram who immediately put his body on the sofa.

"iyaa papa". alisya also spread her body.

alisya slept with me very tightly, like someone was afraid of the person she was hugging was leaving.

"mother". said alisya slowly.

"yes baby".I replied in a whisper.

"don't go stayin alisya ya. alisya do not want to lose mother". the tighter alisya hugged me.

deg, my heart just stopped beating hearing her sincere alisya request.how lucky I am to have a child like alisya.

"yes dear, mother will not go ninggalin alisya. mother will always be beside her alisya, mother promise". me and alisya hooked our little finger.

alisya looks very comfortable sleeping in my arms.I patted her shoulders so that alisya can sleep soundly.

after alisya slept well, I saw mas bram sleeping on the sofa by draping his hands between his legs.

"mas bram must be cold.

when I enveloped the body of mas bram, suddenly mas bram pulled my hand and held it.

"mas. mas bram". I called mas bram in a slow tone.

it is difficult to remove my hand from the grasp of Mas bram.my hand is getting sandwiched between his hand and body.

"gracia don't go, don't leave me". I heard bram delirious.

"mas... ". call me again.

"i can't live without you gracia, please come back.

I saw the tears of Mas Bram dripping as he delirious of his dead wife.

my heart was full of delirium mendegar mas bram, that in fact in the heart of mas bram still there is his wife.

I patted the back of mas bram so that he slept well again.look sad face mas bram even though he fell asleep.

"mas, I know that in your heart there will always be your wife.

I pull my hands slowly so that the bram mas does not wake up. I cover his body so that the bram mas still feels warm.

seeing that mas bram and alisya were asleep, I chose to go out and sit in the hospital garden to find some cool air.

I walked slowly through the garden with my flip-flops, I saw the trees that were blown by the night wind and the garden lights that adorned.

"awhhhh cold, I forgot to wear a jacket. My clothes are very thin.

I kept walking, until I found a garden chair facing the highway.

I sat staring at the passing vehicle, so much light I saw that it dazzled my eyes.

"hmmmm". I'm breathing in the night air.

"it's so cool and it's soothing".I said with a smile.

I continued to sit swinging my legs and enjoy the time passing.

"don't go out tonight, you catch a cold". suddenly, bram came to give me a jacket.

"mas bram, why wake up?". I was surprised to see mas bram find me.

"so I woke up and saw you weren't around, so I went out looking for you". said mas bram while sitting next to me.

"sorry, I woke you up and looked for me".

"it's okay karin. what are you doing here". asked mas bram.

"i'm just looking for some fresh air mas bram.

"it's late at night. Let's go back to the alisya room". mas bram pulled my hand.

"ahh yaa mas". I followed mas bram.

"cool down, don't go out for another night. The night breeze isn't good". mas bram rearranges his jacket and embraces me.

although the atmosphere of a cold night but hugging the bram mas feels very warm and makes me very comfortable.
