The Father's Choice Husband
Chapter 31
I am grateful, since that day, Mas Aak so want to work on the land he has with my father and mother, although sometimes still complain tired, hot and so forth. We grow several types of vegetables in one land, hope to harvest alternately, so not only once harvest, then planted again and wait a long time again to until the harvest.
Since working on the rice fields, I saw Mas Aak's body become a little fresher than it used to be, probably because of the effects of working all sports. In addition, he also rarely smoked, only occasionally, even away from me. Unfortunately, Mas Aak is less enthusiastic when it comes to his own rice field, not at home for long. So, sometimes I also come along when I'm on school holidays.
Since I took it at that time, Mas Aak so began to help me often do homework, to be honest I was surprised by the change in attitude of Mas Aak which I think is very drastic. Unlike before, this change in Cook Aak's attitude towards the better went on for quite a while. He became more attentive to me, especially because my stomach was getting bigger, making it easier to complain tired, sore and so on. It feels really amazing.
"Why are you, Dek?" mas Aak asked as he watched me grimace while rubbing my own back.
"My back hurts, Mas, the pegels aren't bad, nih," I replied in detail.
"You said ngeyel, anyway. I told you, don't go to the rice field first, papa. I can do it myself, really. Is it back pain now? Who's bothered?" Cook walked up to me and sat down beside me, then started to massage my body without me asking.
"Hehe, I'm sorry, Mas. Soon we want the first harvest, so I want to know how the condition of our vegetable plants, it turns out to be good, even though the weather is uncertain. Hopefully, it can actually harvest, quite right, the results can be used for childbirth savings." I smiled, imagining a good harvest, definitely able to get a good pay as well.
"Yes, hopefully, Dek. Sometimes if the harvest is even the price of parachuting. So let's not get too hopeful." Cook reminded me not to be happy just yet.
"Well, if the price is skydiving, it's hard too. Though the cost of treatment is expensive, it's been waiting too long." I knead my temple, which suddenly felt dizzy when I imagined that something bad was happening.
"Why are you, Dek?" ask Mas Aak who has now become more sensitive to me.
"Dizziness if the shadow of reality does not match expectations, Mas. This is our only savings. I am 7 months pregnant, not long after I was born, do not know how much it costs, have not bought any baby equipment at all, not to mention for the Thanksgiving event," I replied in detail.
"And our plants a lot of macemnya, hopefully not all plunge. So you can patch the others. Hopefully I can close the capital, and there is a good thing, Dek. Our plants are good, so there is still hope. Not failing that." Cook trying to calm me down, maybe I am the one who thinks too much.
"Yes, Mum." I agree with what my husband said. Suddenly the sound of rain water was very heavy, even on the roof tile sounded very heavy.
"It's raining really hard, Mom? How is this the same plant?" I suddenly panicked, afraid that something bad would happen to our crops that were almost ready for harvest.
"Hopefully safe, also the rain quickly subsided," replied Mas Aak who actually also looks panicked.
I nodded and began to pray in my heart, may everything be safely under control.

"The rain is not easing, Mas," I said while preparing breakfast for Mas Aak.
"Not knowing either, Dek. Give permission, don't go to school. The condition is new like this. There's nothing on the road, trees falling or landslides in the street, or flooding." Cook Aak turned out to be more worried about me, but I had no problem if I had to penetrate the wind and rain.
"No problem, Mom, I'm used to going through the rain like this, there's a raincoat. Anyway soon I will take an old vacation, so it's not good if only because of the rain I comfort myself. The kids, Mas." I smiled, grateful for the attention, even though it didn't feel very necessary.
"Yes now the condition is different, you are pregnant big. If there's anything on the road how? Or I'll drive you in your car, okay?" Cook Aak still objected that I left alone.
"It's up to you, Mas. If not," I replied in the end. Either my husband is really concerned with me, or just our son, I don't care.
"No bother, really. Besides also raining gini it is impossible for me to go to the rice field. More than nothing, right?" Aak smiled widely, it seemed like he was very happy because I wanted to obey him.
"Jude, we're having breakfast, keep getting ready, ma'am." I returned Mas Aak's smile, then had breakfast together as usual.

I was really worried, the rain did not stop, even after three days. Even if it subsides, it still leaves a small drizzle. It makes the water stand high enough. For three days I was also escorted to pick up Mas Aak when I went to school.
"Mas, the rain isn't stopping? If this continues, what is the condition of our vegetables? Have you seen it yet?" I broke the silence in the car this morning.
"Not yet, but if you look at the rice fields that we pass through to your school, most of them are damaged. Maybe our rice fields also experience the same thing," Mas Aak replied still while driving.
"Well, how's dong? How are you that ordinary, my friend? Relax, don't try to do what?" I raised my tone, obviously I panicked, although it was still uncertain the truth.
"Lha trus what should I do? Call the rain handler, let the rain stop? Not even possible, right?" Cook Aak also raised his tone, maybe he was annoyed like I said earlier.
"It's not so, Mom. But try to see how the condition of our plants, let's know how the condition, still good or change drastically," I replied in a more subtle tone. I don't want this to spark any more fights between us.
"Yaudah, later coming home from among you, I stopped by the rice fields, deh," Mas Aak broke up in the end.
During my teaching, I could not concentrate, because I was anxiously waiting for news from my husband. I was afraid of being disappointed, because this was my wish for the cost of labor in a moment.
