Gao since last night just kept teasing Ayana, even sticking nonstop. Not knowing why there was a hint of worry in his heart, as if something was going to happen, his feelings from these few days felt uneasy, uneasy and constantly worried.
"Why?"
Ayana frowned when her husband had not slept since, glanced at the clock on the table, already at 3:10 in the morning.
"Hm"
In the position of tilted sleep facing each other, Gao immediately hugged Ayana's body tightly, not knowing clearly she really felt anxious and worried.
"So, maybe because tomorrow's the day H's getting a little restless"
he said slowly still hugging tightly the wife's body.
Ayana was clearly giggling amusedly.
"Honey it's just a 7-monthly event, not a wedding"
ayana said slowly.
"Your reception time is mediocre, basic hmmm.."
Ayana spoke while stroking Gao's back slowly.
"My big baby can be worried too"
Ayana continued to talk while stroking Gao's back for some time, she entered into Gao's arms for a moment, then suddenly looked up.
"Do you want to pray together for the night?"
Ayana's whisper is soft.
"There's still time"
Continue again.
"It can eliminate anxiety and worry"
he said again still gently stroking Gao's back.
Gao closed his eyes for a moment, frowned, then nodded slowly.
"He em"

Ayana seemed to have been sitting sweetly on the board using traditional palembang clothes, she had used Kain (sewet) wrapped like kemben covering the body. Both of his hands were placed on the scales to be weighed. The weight of the hand that determines the weight of the sewet to be used.
Ayana's body before using custom clothing has been covered with three-color powder, namely white, red, and green. “These three colors symbolize the colorful life that will be lived by the baby after that his body is wrapped in a sewet cloth.
The show was preceded by the mama, then mommy Nadya, continued by some people nearby. Each time the Ayana sawdust is replaced, 1 person who watered 1 sawet is used.
Gao got dizzy to see the strange customs he witnessed since this morning.
After that Ayana was bribed with chicken-roasted turmeric rice after the ritual was completed.
*********
Ayana seemed to roll on her mattress after all the events were over, either Gao where since then has not been seen the trunk of her nose.
Since Ayana's mobile phone rang endless, Ayana was actually quite reluctant to ignore her, but do not know why she accidentally opened her nightstand drawer for a moment and appeared on the screen appeared Dyah's name there.
Ayana was clearly frowning her forehead.
His heart was hesitant enough to lift, but his mind was clearly out of alignment, as if forcing it to lift it. In the end Ayana grabbed her phone and then raised the call.
"Assalamualaikum Dyah?"
"Yes?"
Ayana looks weighing, looks worried face behind her beautiful face
"Where?"
"I'll be there"
**********
Sandi was still pulling hard on Dyah's hair back, a knife looking towards her face, in front of Dyah there is a screen that displays 2 images where on the right side looks the father who is in the hospital filled with hoses, which are, a man seemed to be preparing to pull out a hose from the father's mouth. On the left there is a picture of the sister who was tied to the edge of the bed, with her body bound and eyes closed, next to him was a man who was ready to take orders.
"Choose, which one do you want to finish first?"
whisper a slow password behind his ear
Dyah seemed to cry, she shook her head quickly.
"Call? or one of them will be gone"
"You're crazy san, Ayana's happy with her life"
"You.."
sandi tightened the pull of hair in her hand.
"Take off his father's hose"
yelling at the man beside Dyah's father
in a matter of seconds his interval was released, seen his father had difficulty breathing.
"No, no cipher, don't, I beg you"
"Then call him now"
as soon as Dyah's tears spilled, she received the pass phone with trembling hands.
"I trust you all"
Whisper the cipher while grinning then laugh out loud.
"You're a good girl"
Whisper again while kissing the face of the deep within while grinning happily with a hideous face full of pleasure.
*******
As Ayana realized something, she took a few steps back when she found out who was in front of her.
"Hallo Mrs Gaohan"
"You.."
ayana's voice choked
"During the meeting, baby"

Palembang Tradition 7 months
Imbecile
This sacred ceremony consists of two words, namely,
instead of being interpreted as a close bathin between the mother and the fetus, this bond will be more pronounced when mentioned thayibah sentences.
While the word bunting means the formation of a human in the womb of the mother, who is now entering the age of 7 (seven) months.
That is why the ceremony of indecision is done at the age of pregnancy entering 7 months, namely as an expression of gratitude for the presence of Allah SWT for the gift given to newly married families in the form of pregnancy aged 7 moons. In this expression of gratitude are also asked for prayers of the presence of Allah SWT if given salvation, if, ease and health for the mother and the baby until the time comes to give birth and avoid the influence of spirits who will do evil. Because it is loaded with religious spiritual values, some of the people are still trying to implement it.
