The Hidden Love

Happy news

Mbok Darmi kept looking at the Sultan as he watched the man walk into the house.

" Is there anything left Den?" tanyakanya.

" There's no Mbok."

" then?"

" This is all at the request of Her Majesty the queen, Mbok."

" Huh?" Mbok Darmi fell silent, thinking for a moment.

" Her Majesty the queen has lowered her decree, the Mbok wants to know, what is the word?" The sultan embraced the old woman, aligning his steps, "Her Majesty the queen gave orders that contained a prohibition on the king to plunge directly into the battlefield." The Sultan chuckled as he looked at Mbok Darmi's confused expression, "Wouldn't it be better to give in than punch the drums of war with him Mbok? Perhaps the king held full power and power throughout the land, but in the palace ..no one was more powerful than the Queen Mother. If for example the queen was angry and did not leave the door of her room open for me, how could I produce a child later if she kept me out, and ordered me to sleep in the guest room, like last night."

And suddenly the Sultan hissed as he felt his ears being hot, picked up by his nanny.

" Auw .. Mbok's pain." whining like a child, while rubbing his ear flushed.

" In any case, if the talk is right, the Mbok is old, talk frankly, do not play a puzzle that makes the head of the Mbok dizzy."

" Are you old?" The Sultan opened his eyes, "if I think so, the Mbok is young, beautiful and bohay." blinked one eye, flirtatious.

" Big brat!" Mbok Darmi was already preparing to swing his hand to hit the Sultan, but as quickly as lightning the man dodged immediately ran towards the top floor.

The sultan set his breath panting as he ran up the stairs to avoid his beloved old woman.

Once he entered the main room, he could immediately see the expression of a face full of happiness emanated from his wife's face.

" So .." said Hanum.

" According to your orders, I'll be with you all day."

The Sultan almost lost his balance when Hanum suddenly ran over and hugged him.

Is this happy for him? just because I said I'd be with him? okay .. maybe this is caused by the busyness that I have been running all this time so that he wants more time with me.

" When are you going to let go of your embrace?" whisky Sultan.

" Don't you want me to hug you like this?" he asked sarcas, breaking away and turning his body.

Tuh right? wrong again? why is he so sensitive?

" It's not so dear." Sultan approached his wife, "To accompany you, I also have to change my clothes first, yes I have to wear formal clothes like this in the house."

" Yes there, quickly change your clothes" said Hanum, ketus.

Ten minutes later.

Sultan came out of the dressing room, the man had replaced the long shirt he wore earlier with a polo shirt colored tosca, combined with knee-length shorts made of navy cotton.

" It is" he said, telling Hanum who was standing in front of the window of his room. His words are made as soft as possible to avoid misunderstandings that currently often hit his wife who is sensitive.

" Come." flanked her husband's arm, guiding the man to follow in his footsteps.

The sultan rounded his eyes as soon as he saw what his wife was currently doing. Hanum told Sultan to sit sweetly while he turned on the TV. The push of the remote button, then replace it with Chanel that he used to watch.

Korean drama, no more wrong. I, who in fact is a company owner, has a super-dense schedule prohibited by his wife, to not go to the office and instead tell me to accompany him to watch television? what kind of ridiculous thing is this? just-there's. The Sultan was still in his arms when Hanum had already placed his head on the man's thigh.

During the TV drama, Sultan kept his mouth shut, the man preferred to be silent while stroking Hanum's head. Not daring to say a word, because what he was afraid of, he would misspoke later and instead make Hanum angry.

The drama was not over, and Sultan was again shocked when he saw his wife suddenly turn off the TV and get up from her position.

" Why is it turned off?"

" I want a caramel cassava" Hanum said without further ado.

It took about a minute for the Sultan to answer.

" Want me to buy it?" bargained for.

" Of course, what would you like, Mr. Dadang who bought what?" sewot.

" Yes, come on." The Sultan associated his fingers with his wife's hands.

They immediately made their way to the car garage and Sultan drove his car, starting down the street. While along the way he thought, about to buy such food where, the reason is, he himself had never seen what kind of food it was. If Thai cassava, maybe he had seen it but this, well .. essentially the food is both made from cassava. He will try to find it in one of the malls, who knows there is a food stand that peddles caramel cassava there.

He could not ask his wife where to buy, a ceasefire could happen later.

Not yet they arrived, the Sultan's cell phone on the dashboard of the car shook, he glanced at Hanum, gave the code to the girl to immediately receive incoming calls on her number.

Mommy.

The girl said before picking up the phone.

" Hello son, how are you?" the soft voice of the woman who had given birth to her husband, sounded so warm.

" Good mi, how's the family mami there? healthy too, right?"

" Ah, Hanum." Train surprised when he found out the recipient of the phone turned out to be his favorite daughter-in-law, "We are all healthy, son, what else do you love? Which sultan?"

" Sultan Mas there is this next to Hanum mi, again driving." staring at her husband, "Mami want to talk to the Sultan?"

" Don't be a pity, mami won't bother her concentration, mami just wants to say, the day after tomorrow is grandfather's birthday, as usual, will be held a small thanksgiving event. Say the same Sultan, try to go home? we all miss you so much."

" Good mi, later Hanum convey the same mas Sultan."

" Yes already then, be careful yes, always take care of health." Ratih message.

" Yes, mommy too. Hanum dear mami." - softly, her eyes glazed over.

Her memory returned as she recalled the affection the woman had given her. The love of a mother she has not felt for a long time.

" What did Mommy say?" sultan's question made Hanum surprised, he rubbed the corner of his eye that contained a clear grain about to dart down his cheek.

" Mommy said, after grandfather's birthday, and we have to go back to Semarang."

" Sometimes so sudden?" mumam Sultan's.

" His birthday?"

" No, mami .. suddenly he told us."

" I don't know." Hanum rubbed his shoulders.

" Oh yeah, we're all looking for a gift for grandpa, right?"

" OK." OKAY."

.

Two days later.

Sultan who was worried because he saw the face of his wife who was so pale, many times he asked the state of Hanum.

" You seriously okay? your face is pale, our plane departure is still five minutes away. We can go to the doctor first, to Semarang we can postpone tomorrow." The Sultan kept looking at his wife who was closing his eyes while leaning on the plane bench.

" I'm fine, I'm just a little dizzy." Grasping her husband's hand.

" Yes, you go to sleep, and then until I wake up."

In the afternoon, the plane carrying Hanum and Sultan had landed at Ahmad Yani International Airport.

Arriving there, they were immediately picked up by Mr. Danang, a private driver who had long worked for the Pradipta family.

Once home, the Sultan immediately took his wife to his room to rest. Seeing Hanum who was not healthy but still forced to return to Semarang immediately, making the Sultan worry about the girl.

" Did he have a car hangover?" arya asked, "Your wife looks unwell."

" He was not feeling well, Pi added that he kept throwing up on the plane."

" The trip here will be on retreat, after Hanum is healed." Burhan, the Sultan's grandfather, chimed in, "Also health is the main thing."

" The Sultan had also persuaded him Kek, but he insisted."

" Yes, take a break."

The three men left the Sultan's room, allowing the couple to rest.

Evening is approaching.

Hanum pecked himself in front of the mirror, he applied a red lip tint to cover his pale lips, covering his pias face by applying some kind of makeup.

" Are you sure you want to go down? healthy already?" ask the Sultan who is currently standing behind Hanum.

" I'm fine, I'm not drunk anymore" he joked with a laugh.

" Yes, come on, but later, if for example you suddenly feel unwell again, tell me yes."

" Yes."

The two people were stunned to see the state of the house, the lower floor had been conjured with dazzling decorations. Many guests who come, but Ratih said, most guests who come only from the closest family and also colleagues grandfather, and also, fellow retired people who are still given long life and the opportunity to gather with the owner of the event.

The event went smoothly, as expected, until the core event arrived, especially if not dinner.

There was a round table in the middle of the room, where one nuclear family was having dinner together.

Grandfather looked so happy to see his whole family gathered to celebrate his birthday, they ate while being accompanied by small talk.

Hanum who had been feeling very hungry was so enthusiastic to see the various dishes in front of him. Among the many foods that were there, Babat gongso was the most attention Hanum. The sultan laughed witfully as he saw Hanum spending almost half of the plate.

" Eat the others too." Ratih put a piece of soy sauce chicken, on Hanum's plate, "Since then, Mami noticed you only eat tripe gongso only, others are no less delicious you know."

" Thank you Mi."

Hanum accepted it gladly, taking it as a form of concern from her mother-in-law. Slowly he began scooping rice with pieces of soy sauce into his mouth.

And when the fusion of rice and chicken meat began to enter his mouth, Hanum suddenly felt his stomach uncomfortable. The unbearable nausea made him smother his mouth.

" Hoek .. hoek ..." finally came the voice that Hanum had been resistant to.

Making all eyes on him, the Sultan who was sitting next to him, quickly responded.

" What are you doing?"

" Hoek ..." Hanum still covered his mouth with his hands, "Excuse me to the toilet for a moment."

Hanum ran towards the bathroom located not far from the living room, while the Sultan followed behind.

Hanum felt his head dizzy, his gaze blurry and suddenly dark.

Brug ...

Hanum collapsed before he reached the bathroom, making a rowdy room.

Making grandfather and some people who had been sitting at a table scatter towards Hanum.

The panicked Sultan immediately carried his wife's body and laid her in the guest room.

" Mommy called the doctor?" ask Sultan.

" Yes, but Jeremy's doctor is attending a seminar in Australia, he can't come" Ratih said.

" Gosh, how's this?" The sultan looked frustrated.

Seeing the increasingly crowded conditions, making an old man approached towards Burhan, he was a friend of the Sultan's grandfather. They have been friends since they were babies, because their parents were best friends. The two separated while on college bench, Burhan who chose to be a soldier like his father, while the man chose to study medicine in the land of bamboo curtains.

" Let me check on your son-in-law's granddaughter" said the man whose hair had turned white.

Burhan also nodded.

" Where is he going?" ask the Sultan who wants to carry Hanum's body again.

" To the Kek's hospital."

" No need." shook off the Sultan's hand, making the Sultan frown, "Let the opa Noh check on him. You forgot." glanced at the man of his age, "He's a famous doctor in China, he's spent half his life treating people. Although he is currently retired from medicine, but his ability to examine patients, can not be doubted."

Shortly after the Sultan nodded, giving permission. The old man sat on the lip of the bed. A man who only a few years ago returned to Indonesia, Sultan also knew him very well because he often saw him coming to see his grandfather.

The familiar man in Noh's greeting grabbed Hanum's wrist, started to check the girl's pulse. The expression on his face when examining Hanum made the Sultan more overwhelmed with anxiety. Several times the opa Noh repeated checking on Hanum, until finally, the old grandfather put Hanum's hand back and covered part of the girl's body.

" How about opa? how's my wife doing? is he hurt? how bad is the pain?" The sultan snatched with various questions, as soon as he saw the Noh opa finished checking on Hanum's condition.

" It's not even that." she answered with a big smile.

" Isn't that how? clearly Hanum fainted, opa?" The sultan raised the volume of his voice slightly, making Burhan anxious and slapping his grandson's shoulders.

" Grandfather .." cut him up.

" Let him talk first, how can Noh explain that you keep nerocos like that?" Burhan looked at Noh. "Say! how is my son-in-law's true granddaughter."

" I know it's too early." the old man took a deep breath, "But based on my examination results, I concluded that your granddaughter is experiencing signs of pregnancy."

" Apaa ..." The entire guest room occupant shouted simultaneously.

" Yes, I've checked it over and over again and the results are the same. I can feel a double pulse indicating that your granddaughter is pregnant."

The idling opa Noh makes Ratih hysterical, the woman cries in tears while hugging her husband. Burhan continued to laugh happily while the Sultan was still sculpting, still unable to believe the old man's words before him.

" There's something else I have to say."

And Noh's speech again makes the entire room make it the center of attention.

" Say." timpal Burhan.

" Based on my examination results, I can tell that the fetus that is currently in your grandson's womb is only about ten weeks old. I can feel her pulse, your granddaughter is carrying twins. But ..."

" But what, opa?" the Sultan again.

" Your wife's heart rate is very weak." looked straight at the Sultan. " I hope you get him checked out by the gynecologist tomorrow, for more details, so he gets the vitamins and drugs he needs right away."

" Thank you opa." lirih Sultan.

The tense atmosphere that had occurred in the room suddenly turned into happiness, the happy news that they had long wanted to hear, they could finally get today. Along with Burhan's happy day.

Silent.

The room was again deserted after the death of grandfather, opa Noh, and several others, lived Sultan alone with his wife who was still unconscious. Opa Noh tells him to look after Hanum and wait until the girl comes to her senses.

And at this time, the Sultan kept squeezing his wife's hand, her tears falling without her being able to control. He was very happy with the happy news he had just heard.

He then lay down beside his wife's body, tightly hugging the girl, it felt like he was so swept away in the happiness he was feeling right now.
