The Light of ANAS
Extra_Part08 - Pineapple Eat Pineapple



Czech ...


Suddenly someone opened the bathroom door from the outside, which then the door opener just entered with breath gasping.


Pluck …


As soon as the testpack that Naz was holding fell to the floor and right in front of the door opener's feet, so surprised Naz who was imagining her husband's reaction to knowing about her pregnancy.


“Magu !“ shouted the door opener which turned out to be Light who then ran and his feet accidentally kicked the testpack which was somehow thrown in which direction. He approached and hugged Naz who was sitting on the toilet.


“Magu .. said Mak Eno cakit, Magu cakit what?” ask the Light that worries his Magu.


“Magu is okay baby, just a headache.” Naz released his daughter from his embrace slowly. “Tok us out,” take him and then get up from his seat.


“Ayok .. Chaya help Magu walk yes,” he said like adults who can use Magu-nya.


Naz walked slowly and was led by Light out of the bathroom until he returned to the bed. Naz sat on a pillow with his body leaning against the back of the bed, resting on a pillow behind his body.


“Magu bobo aja yes, bial cepet syembuh,” he said while wiping his Magu hand.


“Iya my dear, Magu's child is already big it turns out yes. Very attention with Magu .. thank you my dear here ride.” Naz asks Light to go up to the bed, and he goes up and sits next to his Magu.


“Syama-syama.”


Naz hugged his daughter, then rubbed his head. His eyes were on his daughter's feet. “Loh ... Knee Light why is it in plaster?” naz asked his daughter.


“Tadi Chaya ngantelin Onty Aliya home shama Mak Eno,” replied Light.


“Loh, how to drive home .. Not to play outside the same Light?” Naz asked back.


“Kata Onty Aliya wants to go home her eyes. Telus said Pa Uje son of the ndak kicil can pegi sendili later can be kidnapped, so Chaya anterin Onty.” The light tells the details.


“Wah, how kind Magu's son is. Then why did his leg get hurt?” he asked again, because he had not received an answer about the leg of Light plastered.


“Tadi Chaya fell sprained.” He finally said the cause of his knee was injured.


“Hah, seremp? Motorcycle or bicycle stamp, Son?” Naz was surprised to hear that.


“No no... Chaya sprained sendili, Magu,” he said by shaking his index finger.


“Hah ... What does it mean to simmer yourself?” asked Naz who was confused.


“Tadi pas jalan no sand, telus sprained her Chaya leg, so fell ...”


“Oh ... it's called slipping, not spraining.” Naz confirmed his daughter's words.


“Ops ... Chaya luva,” he said then chuckled. “Pas Chaya fell there is a neighbor onty Aliya, his name is Azka, ngetawain Chaya. Telus Chaya pelototin, uh she even cried. Chaya aja fell ndak nangis, Chaya will be strong said Pagu ndak can be crybaby,” he said reporting to his Magu.


“Wah .. great yes Magu's child is a hotshot and not easy to cry,” he said praising the princess.


“But Magu-nya Azka is even the same Chaya, even though it is not penniless. Telus Magu glared at Chaya while saying you are my son?” Light expounds.


“Continue Light answer what?” ask Naz again.


“Meneketehe...” he said raising his shoulders.


“What ... Light say so?” Naz was surprised to hear that.


“Iya,” he said nodding his head.


“Light, if talking to parents should not be that, should be polite, Nak” he said advising the princess.


“But Magu also said so to Pagu.” It turns out he was imitating his Magu words.


Naz was surprised to hear the words of the Light that apparently liked to follow the words of the person he heard. “Emmm .. Magu won't say that again. So the Light also can not say so with others, let alone the same parents,” he said gave an understanding.


“Iya,” the answer nodded.


“Oh yes, Pagu where? Earlier said Mbak Jumin, Cahaya again play the same bike Pagu,” asked.


“Another song called Engki, earlier also Chaya bicala shama Engki. There is Kak Nala sama dedek baby .. Chaya want to go to Engki's house,” the door.


“Iya, later we go to Engki's house yes.” Naz agreed to the princess' wish.


“Why ndak sekalang?” tanyanya protest.


“And Engki's house is far away, if we want to go there must be a plane."


“Why are we so far away, aren't we all there? Chaya wants to play shama Kak Nala, baby grandpa, Kak Ekal. Here the same play Magu or Mak Eno telus,” he said complaining.


“The song works here, so we stay here. Pity if we are in Jakarta, while the bagu is alone here. After all soon school light, later also many friends, so will not be lonely or bored playing alone again.” Naz gave an explanation.


“Chaya want shaykolah sepelti Magu it to kempus?” it was as if the school was the same as the college.


“Campus darling, not kempus.” Naz used his daughter's words. “ Light later different school with Magu school. If at the Light school there will be many friends, there are teachers, many toys as well,” he said giving an idea.


“In shayekolah there is baby grandpa too?” Light continued to discuss the baby's grandpa, as if he knew if soon he would have a sister.


Naz chuckles at the child's question. “No, dear.. Friends at school later it's the same age as Light. Emm ... indeed Light wants to have a baby dede?” It crossed Naz's mind to ask that.


“Mau want to .. Chaya want to have a baby grandpa. Later Chaya asked Kak Nala yes, his baby dedek bought where,” he said innocently. It turns out that the baby's mind is the same as toys that can be purchased.


Naz chuckles at the innocence of his daughter. “That baby's not bought, baby. But made, ” he said then laughed.


“Hah ... Make it how?” tanya Light confused.


“Yassalam, why is this mouth can be lekeplosan gini .. This child will like to imitate the words of others,” Naz murmured in the heart that cursed his mistake that has been lost.


“Eng.. If Light wants to have a baby grandpa, Light has to start doing everything on its own. For example, do not feed yourself again, bathe yourself, wear your own clothes, wear your own shoes, bobok also yourself."


“Why smooth do sendili? There's Mak Eno shama Magu.” Light is used to Magu's help and her ART.


“Kan Cahaya is already big so must learn independently. Especially if you have a baby grandpa, it means Light will be a brother. Later had to take care of her baby sister.” Naz gave an understanding.


“Telus makes his baby sister how?” ask him who is still curious.


“Eng.. means not make, but if the Light wants to have baby grandpa, the Light must often pray with God after every prayer. So that later Allah loves the baby who will be sent to Magu's stomach and born from Magu's stomach, dear. Magu would have said that all living things in this world and its contents are the creation of God.” Naz explained and taught his son to pray often.


“Why to Magu pelut, ndak to Chaya pelut?” ask the Light innocently.


Naz chuckled at how innocent his son was. He thought for a moment to give an explanation that is easily understood by children the age of Light.


“Dede the baby will be sent the same God to the stomach of married mothers. Magu is the mother of Light, so later her baby grandpa sent to Magu's stomach to be her sister Light,” he said.


“Married what is it?” The light kept asking what Naz said, which made him want to know what it meant.


“Eng ... getting married is like Magu and Pagu united to continue to have Light deh,” said Naz who began to run out.


“Hah ?” The light looked confused.


“Yasalam .. This is every time I talk to anyone who asked him, really critical nih child. The more I talk, the more I ask what it means. Could-be get typhoid I think hard to find the right answer for a child,” murmured in the heart.


“Udah not to think about. Marriage is an adult affair whose body is already big, tall. If Light is still a child, so it is not allowed to talk about marriage, yes,” he said stopping the princess, who will certainly continue to ask about things he heard or words that he thought were foreign.


“Loh, we were talking about praying with God, because the Light wants to ask for baby's dedek.” Naz invites Light back to the initial discussion.


“Oh yes .. but but, later the baby's dedek is funny like Kaka Nala?” tanyanya.


“Of course, dear ... You are just funny, let alone later baby grandpa,“ he replied and then chuckled because he felt anxious at the princess.


“Kalo so Chaya wants to pray first,” he said with enthusiasm. He was about to get out of bed.


“What prayer dear? it's only 11pm, it's not time to pray yet. Mending shower first yes, Light smell acem body sticky same sweat nih.”


“Mangu Mangu …. ” Light back to parse the call.


“Iya, why darling?” tanyakanya.


“Kok hengpon Pagu-Magu ndak shama same hengpon Chaya?” he was reminded of his old mobile phone that likes to be used to contact his family in Jakarta.


“Ya different, right if the phone Pagu-Magu specifically for adults. Because the Light is still small, so the phone is different,” he said giving an explanation.


“But but, it's good to have Chaya ah... if hengpon Pagu-Magu glass all, there's no pitcher-pick. If hengpon Chaya is good, if pressed later there is auk auk auk auk aylapyu sound,” he said mimicking the sound of his toy phone.


“Hahahaha .. Yes bagusan his mobile Light really. If so, the light shower first yes, but the same Mother Eno. Because Magu still has a headache,” said Naz persuaded the princess to take a bath, and he was willing.


Naz calls Retno to pick up Light from his room. Before long, Retno came and immediately brought Light to his room next to Naz's room to bathe him there.


Meanwhile, Naz laid his body down because his head still felt dizzy. And he didn't feel like he was back to sleep.


**


Naz awoke when a hand gently stroked her head, apparently it was her husband sitting on the edge of the bed right next to Naz.


“Emhh ... What time is it now?” ask her with a distinctive hoarse voice of waking up.


“Half one,” he replied with a smile.


“Oh, my goodness .. I slept all day,” he said, still gathering his consciousness, then got up and sat down.


”You're good, baby?” Arfin asked the situation of his wife.


“Udah enjoy, the dizziness has also subsided. Which light?” Naz remembered his daughter who had been told to take a bath.


“Tuh ... next to you.” Arfin pointed towards the sleeping Light in the middle of the bed right next to Naz. “After eating, he wants to bobo lunch with Magu he said.”


“Sorry my dear .. all day Magu can not let you play. I think you are very tired yes, until ngorok is like the bobonya,” he said then smiled again.


Naz puts his face close to the child's face. He kissed his daughter on the forehead, then re-stretched his body and turned to the husband.


“Aa, the light is already big. Eng ... should we not give sister to Light?” ask Naz with heart. This is her step to tell her about her pregnancy to her husband.


“Sayang .. we will have discussed this first, and we have decided not to have any more children. Light alone is very complementary to our happiness, so we do not need to add another child,” he said still refused to have more children.


“Pity is he, just complained of not having friends here and bored can only play with me or with Mbak Retno only. In fact he said engen to the crank house, because there was Nala and her baby sister. If she had a sister, she wouldn't feel lonely, would you.”


“Before school light, later also he can have many friends who one school with him. Already darling, do not discuss about adding another child deh,” Arfin still stick with his stance.


“Lifting you pray first gih .. we continue to eat together, Aa already hungry,” he said who then rose and left.


Naz kept looking at her husband's back until he came out the door. Naz felt confused and afraid to say about her pregnancy, because just saying the plan to add children had made her husband look upset. He took a deep breath, then got out of bed to go to the bathroom.


After bathing and praying, he came out of his room and walked towards the dining room. Her husband was waiting for her to eat together. The two of them ate without speaking, as if there was awkwardness between them.

When the magrib arrived, Arfin with his son and wife and the ARTs performed congregational prayers’ at the mosque in his house. After the completion of the prayer, each offered a prayer to the Almighty, not least the Light.


The light that usually bothers his parents while praying, now looks different. He followed every movement of prayer imami by his Pagu, although his body continued to sway and his head turned to and fro.


But during the prayer session, he seemed to pray fervently according to what his Magu recommended. Both of his hands were raised to the level of his chest, while staring into the sky.


“Ya Allah .. Chaya wants to have a baby grandpa like a grandpa kak Nala. But smooth funny yes, if it can be more funny than his baby grandpa sister Nala. Telus ndak can be naughty like brother Ekal, and ndak like to cry like the whiny Azka loh,” he said saying a prayer, as if talking to his friend.


Arfin who was shocked to hear his daughter's words, immediately looked back. However, instead of looking at the Light, he stared intently at his wife.


“Ya Allah .. Chaya promises to be a good child if you have a baby grandpa. Chaya ndak will be naughty again, ndak will be jahilin Mak Eno with Magu again. Say yes Allah .. If tomorrow's baby grandpa is there, Chaya's bial is lonely again, Aamiin ..” The light then rubbed both of his palms onto his face.


“Aamiin,” says both ART agree to his prayer Light. Then the two smiled and seemed to hold back laughter hearing the Light's words praying with a bargain.


“Yassalam ... finish my history. Surely will get this nagging mah sure, “ muttered Naz in the heart when he saw her husband who continued to look at her.


Arfin said nothing after hearing his daughter pray. Either because he was angry at his wife who he believed provoked his daughter, he was touched to hear her daughter feel lonely because of her desire to make Light an only child.


Maybe he thought, he became the only child of his mother and felt no problem. However, he forgot that he had three half-brothers who accompanied his days since childhood, while Cahaya did not have a brother or sister. Surely it was a different thing, and it was natural that his daughter felt lonely.


At dinner, Arfin did not discuss anything. He ate while watching his daughter who refused to be fed, because he wanted to learn to eat by himself as recommended by his Magu. Even after finishing dinner, Arfin was again surprised by Light who asked to sleep alone in his room.


Naz takes Light to the bathroom to brush his teeth, wash his hands and wash his feet. After that, Light went up to the bed, then Naz read the story as his bedtime.


When the Light was already sleepy, Naz asked him to recite a prayer before going to bed. The light lay down and shrouded, and his head was rubbed by Naz until he fell asleep.


Arfin continued to watch his normally spoiled daughter suddenly change, from behind the slightly opened door.


After Naz kissed her daughter's forehead, Arfin went in to do the same to her daughter.


Actually he felt happy his daughter wanted to sleep in her own room without being asked by him, because she had thought the same thing. However, there was a sense of heartlessness and heaviness to leave his daughter sleeping alone in his room. Naz then invites her to leave the Light room.


“We take this as an experiment. Anyway this is of her own volition, not coercion from us, right,” said Naz trying to calm her seemingly heartless husband.


Arfin let out a long sigh, then thought about what his wife said was indeed true. If not tried, Light could want to continue to sleep with his parents until he grew up. He finally agreed to this experiment, although it felt heavy.


Retno offered to accompany Cahaya to sleep in her room, while she slept on a carpet mattress where she played Light. Then Arfin and Naz could feel calm. However, Arfin still advised, if Light cried to be immediately taken to his room.


Naz and Arfin were already in their room and preparing to go to sleep. Naz who saw the look on her husband's face that looked sad, made him not dare to say about his pregnancy. They also fell asleep carrying their own minds.


**


During these three nights, Cahaya escaped being able to sleep separately with her parents, although she was still accompanied by Mbak Retno. Because as usual he would wake up at nine or half ten in the night, to drink milk and then pee into the bathroom.


During that time Naz did not dare to say about her pregnancy to her husband, because he was still confused and afraid to say it. While her husband, seems still worried about Light who continues to want to do everything himself.

This afternoon Naz has just returned from the house of Aunt Ina delivering her daughter who wants to play with her new rabbit Aliya. As he was about to enter the gate, there was a carpenter passing by. He stopped it and bought the fruit.


“Pak, mix one, pineapple only one, young mango only one, and everything spicy yes.” Naz mentions the order, and the street trader makes the order immediately.


After the three packs of rye were finished, they put them in a crackle bag and handed them to Naz. He paid for it and went into his house. He put a bag of crackles on the living room table, then opened the mixed packaging and began to eat it.


“Wealah, Non ... it looks like pineapple fruit yo?” tanya Mbak Jumin who approached Naz in the living room and saw there were three packages of rujak in plastic mica.


“Iya, Mbak Jum .. This honey pineapple said, definitely sweet taste.”Naz looks disgusted to see the pineapple that he wants to open, because the first one is finished.


“Non iki is again pregnant young anyway, ndak can eat pineapple.” Jumin's mother reminded Naz.


“Astagfirullah .. Mbak Jumin is right, how can I forget.” Naz who had just realized, then undo his intention to eat pineapple.


The sound of a car horn, Mbak Jumin immediately came out to open the door. While Naz immediately cleaned up the dish and took it to the kitchen, because the husband still did not know if she was pregnant young. Naz then came back to the front to welcome her husband.


“Assalamu’alaikum ..” Arfin came in and said hello.


“Wa’alaikumsalam .. “, replied Naz approached alu kissing her husband's hand, and Arfin kissed his wife's forehead.


“Which light?” asked Arfin who did not see his daughter.


“He again saw his new rabbit Aliya."


“Iki saved where, Den?” asked Mbak Jumin who brought four pineapples in his hand.


“Bring to the kitchen only, Ma'am. Please peeled one yes,” he said.


“Yeah, Aa why buy pineapple so much?” tanya Naz was astonished.


“Make it eaten, baby. Aa saw that there was a sale of honey pineapple, yasudah bought. You also like it,” he said and sat in the guest chair.


“Huaaaaa …. Huaaaaaa ..” There was the sound of a child crying, which turned out to be the sound of Light that had just entered the carrier by Dinda.


“Loh, Light why cry, Dinda?” ask Naz.


“Do not know, Brother. Once again playing with Aliya saw a rabbit, she suddenly cried,” said Dinda explained.


“Huaaaaa .. Huaaaaa ..” The light kept crying.


“Sini darling …. “Arfin took over the Light from Dinda's lap and carried it. “Cup cup, dear ... You why cry, hem? Want to buy rabbits too?” ask Arfin.


The light shook his head and kept crying. Naz and Arfin looked confused, and Dinda went home.


“Which light, dear?” Naz asked.


“Huaaaaaaa .. Chaya wants to stay with old Chaya like the rabbit earlier, huaaaaaaa ..” The light began to speak on the sidelines of his cry.


“Loh .. Light will stay the same Pagu and Magu. We are the parents of Light,” said Arfin who felt astonished.


“Pagu do not bo’ong, huaaaaa ...” The light was crying.


“Pagu does not lie, dear. We are your parents .. Who said we are not Light parents?” asked Arfin curiously.


“Kata Magu, huaaaaaa ..” The Light Greetings pointed towards Naz, and Arfin instantly stared at Naz.


“Eh, when did Magu say that?” ask Naz who doesn't feel.


“If Chaya is naughty, Magu syuka says gini ‘dasal son Alfin !’, huaaaaaa ...”pronunciation Light makes both parents chuckle.


“Means Light is his son Pagu,” said Arfin.


“Pagu don't bo’ong!” The light does not believe.


“Please, Arfin's name Pagu” Arfin explained.


“Bo’ong .. Pagu is called Aa.”The light that started to stop crying was still in disbelief.


“My darling, Pagu's name is Al Arifin. Some like to call Al, some like to call Arfin. If Aa was a favorite call from Magu” Arfin gave an explanation.


“So Chaya benelan son Pagu?” ask the Light while you are still.


“Yes, sweetheart. Light Time does not know the name Pagu anyway .. if the name is Magu who?” tanya Arfin.


“Non Pineapple,” said Light was upset and it made Arfin also Naz laugh. It seemed like he often heard the name called by both of his ART.


Mbak Jumin suddenly came carrying a plate of pineapple that has been peeled and cut. “Iki, Den pineapple,” he said keep the plate on the table.


"Itsure, Ma'am." Arfin sat back with Light on his lap. “Look we eat the pineapple, in sweet loh.” Arfin took one piece of pineapple and ate it.


“Chaya want .. Chaya want ...” Said whining.


“Light does not like pineapple, he said asem and make lips gatel.” Naz reminded his daughter.


“Ah .. Chaya want !” shouts rowdy. Arfin took one piece for his daughter.


“Darling, how do you not eat pineapple? Very sweet, seger.” Arfin was surprised, even though Naz liked pineapple fruit.


“Magu ndak will want, Pagu .. Pineapple time eat pineapple.” The light mocked Naz.


“Hahahaha .. You are right, dear. You're making an anxious ih.” Arfin pinched cheek Light.


“Aww... get sick ih!” Protest light.
