For months.
Anas was busy in the kitchen. Prepare dishes to be sold in front of the house. Selling yellow rice seems inseparable from everyday life. Although now he has another income but still loyal to the profession.
Anas only a few months ago made 5 rented houses and also some rice fields. Everything comes from saving. In addition, Cantika who is only a housewife already has her own income. He runs an MLM business from home. There is nothing special and good about the profession they are in. But in fact their lives are really worth it even though they do not have to be wrapped in luxury.
Cantika holds a white paper bag. It contains several health and beauty products from well-known companies that overshadow its business. Do not forget to check first to show off in sosmed, meaning to promo hook consumers.
"Alhamdulillah, even if only sitting at home but can still get income and bonuses. Bumil era now can also do business casually without having to leave the house. Join MMM members without loss. Healthy dapet, muannya also dapet!" That was the review he posted on some of his social media accounts.
Anas is busy serving the buyers. Most of the mothers are still excited. Although there are some minor, but now Cantika has not responded too much. Unless it was excessive, then he would attack her with a scathing look or words.
Little Afkar? The boy now prefers to stay at Mr. Permana's house. Since the double honeymoon, the baby has indeed become closer to his grandparents. Moreover, the old man now works just sitting at home because the company has been handled by Fabian. Yes, his daughter-in-law who was one turned out to have pent-up talent in taking care of business. It is unexpected if the tattooed man is a graduate of business administration.

Tonight Anas has been back and forth to the bathroom several times. His stomach suddenly hurt and heartburn is very wrapped around. The man is lying limp on the bed.
"Mas, what did you eat with that stomachache?" Ask Cantika who is sitting on the bed.
"So early in the morning eat chicken porridge mostly sambel. Could that be the cause?"
"Ehm, panties. Take medicine dong, Mas. Don't forget to drink plenty of water!"
"It has. God, I'm going to the bathroom again." Anas held onto his stomach while running small.
A few minutes later the man returned. Cantika massaged her husband's back.
"Mas, let's go to the doctor. I'm concerned. Your face is pale."
"No need. It's just heartburn, but nothing comes out. I'm lemes 'cause I have to go back and forth to the bathroom." Talking as normally as possible even though the stomach is wrapped around.
"Mas, why am I also following the gini mules? I don't feel like eating spicy." Holding her distended stomach.
"Well, if you're obligated to the doctor. I'm afraid there's nothing with you and our baby."
Anas pulled his wife out of the room. Carefully, the bump is raised on the motor. The vehicle drove slowly to the front of the alley, the edge of the highway. It was there that Anas stopped an angkot that happened to pass by. Cantika was brought into the public vehicle that had not been hitchhiked.
"Sir, please take us to the Hospital! Maybe my wife will give birth." Anas panicked.
"Good, sir." The driver panicked. But he still tried to focus on carrying the four-wheeled vehicle. I don't want anything bad to happen to a pregnant woman.
Cantika kept grimacing holding her stomach. "Why do you mules gini? My back is also hot."
"Please baby, we'll be there soon." Anas rubbed his wife's back. Next to his hand held the stomach that returned heartburn.
Why do I have to have stomach pain when Cantika is like this? So troublesome!
"Mas, I'm going to the bathroom. Mules are so strong, not strong....!" Clutching her husband's arm.
"Patience, dear. We'll sit in the hospital again!" I'm going to the toilet too....!
Platkk...! Cantika hit hard Anas arm.
"From just saying patience, wait again until. But why haven't you been nyampe-nyampe too?!" Screaming.
"Relax, it's better to save your energy for later if it's really going to give birth. Don't forget to pray that everything goes well!" Swiping his wife's head.
The pregnant woman brushed off Anas' hand that was twitching in her hair. "Don't hold it, sultry! Oh, my God, my God.... My stomach is getting heartburn. Mom, I'm not strong anymore."
Cantika clenched her teeth to endure the pain. His hand held Anas' shoulder firmly. The driver panicked. From earlier his eyes glanced at the rearview mirror to find out what was happening behind. A cold sweat the size of a corn seed, filled the man's wide forehead.
Cittt....! The car stopped right in front of the hospital lobby. Anas immediately went down to call some nurses who were passing by. Shortly after, they returned.
Cantika was placed in a wheelchair to the delivery room. Anas is still talking to the driver.
"What's the cost?"
"Secondly, sir."
"This, thank you very much." Pouring money from his wallet and then running after his wife.
A nurse was about to close the delivery room door when Anas wanted to enter. "Sorry, Sir. You better wait outside!"
"Can't, I want to accompany my wife." His ink with a face.
"But we don't want to if you interrupt later."
"Please, let me in!"
"Sorry, Sir. You just wait while praying."
The door is completely closed. Anas rubbed his face rough. Just this time he accompanied his wife to give birth, but was instead banned. Not fair at all!
Suddenly his stomach rolled back and his heartburn. The man also took the time to go to the toilet.

"Where is my husband, Doctor?" ask Cantika who is lying on the hospital bed.
"It's outside."
"Please call, I want her to watch this baby be born!"
"But, won't it bother you?"
"I beg you, Doctor. The first step he could not accompany. This time I have to give birth alone?"
The doctor finally gave up. He told the nurse to call Anas.
"Sorry, your husband doesn't exist." Say Sister.
"What's? Where the hell is Mas Anas? Doctor, I don't want to push if my husband isn't in this room yet."
The doctor and the nurse looked at each other. So troublesome!
Even so, still the nurse returned to see the patient's husband. Fortunately, Anas was there.
"Where was Father? Your wife wants company."
"I'm out of the toilet."
"Yes, hurry up. Your wife will soon give birth."
If I had been allowed to enter, I would not have taken this seriously!
"Are you ready, baby? Don't forget to pray!"
Cantika nodded slowly, her eyes already glazed over. Anas peed his forehead for a moment.
"Come, Mom, now take a deep breath. Concentration and passion!"
"Bismilbornrahmanirrahim, ummmm......!"
Twice, the baby was born. The little baby, a male and a bushy black haired, was now crying to greet the world.
The nurse immediately cleaned the red baby and gave it to the mother. Cantika and Anas could not hold back the tears that had been dammed. Weeping and gratitude for the arrival of their second baby.
Anas rubbed and kissed his wife's head several times. "Thank you very much, dear."
Cantika smiled widely even though the tears had not stopped wetting her cheeks. She was happy because this time her husband was by her side.
Anas carefully held the baby. The adhan and iqamah are echoed in both ears of the child. His voice sounded raucous and faltered because it was holding haru. The little one was stroked and kissed by his father and then returned to his mother.
While Cantika gives her first ASI to her baby, Anas reaches into her pants pocket to pick up a cell phone. He just remembered to tell all the family members.

"Flum, Cantika has given birth. Thank God our second child was born normal and healthy." Anas' voice over the phone.
"When?" Mr. Permana asked back.
"Just 15 minutes ago."
"What's? Why did you just tell me?"
"Sorry, Pih. I was too panicked to forget."
"What hospital are you in?"
"The Hospital of Love."
"Well, we'll be there soon."
Call disconnected. Mr. Permana immediately called Bu Sofi to take him to the Hospital.

A month later.
Today at the house Anas held aqiqah for his second son. The event was filled with the slaughter of two goats that will be distributed to residents in need. In addition, there is the division of alms and the event of shaving the baby's hair. The event was also equipped with a study by the mosque worshipers, they called it Marhabaan.
After the event everyone gathered in the living room. Eat together as usual. After that, have a relaxed conversation.
"Sister Cantika already has two heroes. Means later we'll have to try again to make girls." Riri chirps interspersed with the small laughter of the residents of the house.
"You boys, you want girls the same. For me the important thing is healthy, normal and hopefully be a good-natured child." Said Cantika who was busy snacking at the time.
While her husband was in the room with the eldest to look after Dede baby named Adam Malik.
"Aamiinu. When will you love us grandchildren?" Bu Sofi directed her gaze at Riri.
"It's also another business, isn't it Mas?!"
Fabian just shamed. While Mr. Permana laughed a little.
Not long after, Riri made a small run to the toilet. Fabian soon followed due to worry.
"Ouuoo....."
Everyone looked at each other when they heard the sound from the bathroom. There was a big smile on his lips.
"I think Mama and Papi will have another grandson from Riri." Cantika looks so enthusiastic.
Same with the couple. Hopefully their predictions are correct.
**
The next few months.
Tonight Cantika and Anas embrace each other on the bed. The atmosphere was safe because Afkar and Adam were already playing in the dreamland. Eyes meet eyes, hands meet hands.
"Time passes so quickly. I thought I married a Jutek girl yesterday. But now the girl has given me two handsome sons. Thanks a lot, baby."
"I don't think we're a match. I'm lucky to be your wife. I'm so happy, Mas. I love you so....much!"
"Hem, I love you a lot too. Cantika Aprilia, the only queen I have in my heart."
"Om bewok is also the only one in my heart." Cantika smiled mischievously while rubbing the feathers on her husband's cheeks.
"Bad wife!"
Kening meets the forehead. The heart and exhale of each can be heard clearly. Although no longer newlyweds, but their feelings are getting hotter. It is time for lips to meet lips. Stirring and shaking each other. Occasionally there is a naughty gig*tan that makes the whole body goosebumps disco.
The hands of the two people were still actively surfing to any area at will. When the atmosphere is getting hotter, then remove the entire cover cloth. Falling on the floor.
The bed was getting hotter when the desire was almost up the peak. Together they flew to reach the paradise of a world that was never boring.
"I love you, my wife." Whisper the man while peeking Canfika's forehead, after a cool struggle just now.
"I love you too, Mas Bewok."
The two fell asleep and hugged each other. A beautiful night that will certainly repeat as long as they are still alive, until finally forming a new life someday.
