"Honey, the road is slow!" Kenan was horrified to see Alice walking quickly.

"Yes, Mas. Alice also just walked not running." Alice replied relaxed.

A long sigh rang out from the handsome man's lips, "We rest first yes, continue shopping later." Take Ken to his wife.

"Mas, tired?" Alice turned towards Kenan who was beside her.

"No, it's just that I'm worried if you're exhausted, baby." Ken replied gently by tucking Alice's hair behind her ear.

"I'm not tired, Mom. There's still a lot of stuff we have to buy for our kids." Alice said blinking rapidly.

Kenan had to suppress his emotions lest he scream in public, facing Alice who had recently become more irritating in his opinion.

"We're not tired, but our son must be tired. Let's sit down first, for the unbought goods let Ferdy alone prepare it or Mama." Gentle Kenan.

Alice's countenance suddenly turned cloudy, her eyes already glazed over, "But, I want to prepare everything myself, Mas." Answer Alice softly.

Alice puts the baby clothes into the basket Ken was carrying, walking out of the store by wiping away her tears. He also wanted to obey Kenan, but much Alice had not prepared given the suffering experienced by the Wijaya family.

Kenan will not know how excited a woman who will give birth to her first child, all from small to big things are prepared all by themselves without the help of others.

Kenan handed the basket to the employee to save it first and immediately chased his wife who had already left the store.

"Dear." Ken wipes Alice's wrist and stops the woman.

"Take it off." Reject Alice who tried to stop her crying.

Ken hugged Alice's body from behind, not caring for the visitors' gazes towards her. Alice lowered her head in shame and sadness, and in her heart she was just crying, all she did.

"Sorry, I'm sorry. We'll get all the baby gear ready ourselves without Mama or Ferdy's help." Ken said by stroking his wife's distended stomach.

"What right?" Alice wanted to confirm her husband's words.

"True, let's take a break. See your feet are swollen what if later tingling. You will have trouble walking and shopping again, just relax if today is not finished there is still tomorrow." Obviously Kenan is soft.

Alice nodded, releasing a twist of Ken's hand and twisting her body until the two faced each other. One kiss of Alice landed on her husband's thin lips, holding Ken's hand and walking in one of the instant food stands inside the mall.

Bring a tray with a snack and two juices for Alice, "Thank you, Mas." Alice said sincerely.

"Eat a lot." Ken shuffled his wife's hair.

Both of them spend a moment to rest before returning to shopping, lucky company there is no big project so Kenan can apply for leave until HPL the wife.

Ken and Alice return to the store they visited, taking some of the things Alice thinks she needs. When going to insert the baby towel Alice was made dumbfounded by Kenan.

"Mas, why so much!" His word.

"Mas tired dear, we've been in and out of several stores today. You said everything was nice and funny so Mas just put it all in the basket and the rest will be sent to the mansion." Whine Ken with a face.

"Mas but not everything, the baby's growing up fast." Alice said, breathing long.

"That's a waste of money, Mom." Alice mende*sah resigned.

"Mas will work even harder for you and our children." Ken immediately kissed Alice's chubby cheek.

Alice's face reddened by Kenan's actions, while the culprit just passed to the cashier. Not all of the items in the store were bought by Ken actually. Just clothes only, the rest asked for each model to be sent one.

Alice who was about to walk stopped her steps, feeling the pain that came to make Alice's hand grip the iron shelf firmly. He breathed short and stroked his stomach gently.

The store clerk who saw Alice was silent with a pale face in a fit of panic, "Mrs! Is Madam going to give birth?!" Said the officer.

The clerk's voice grunts, making some visitors and Kenan pay attention to the direction of the voice. Kenan quickly walked towards Alice who turned out to be the center of attention.

"Darling, are you going to give birth?" Ask her to panic.

"Huh? It doesn't seem like it yet, maybe our son just said hello." Answer Alice slowly.

"really?" Ken made sure again.

"Better immediately to the hospital, may have started contractions. It is natural to give birth earlier than the date." Said one of the visitors to Alice and Kenan.

"Thank you." Alice and Ken answered at the same time.

"Is it over, Mom?" Ask Alice back.

"Of course, let's go to the hospital. I'll call Doctor Ana." Answer Ken quickly.

"We go home first." Take Alice.

Kenan held Alice as a bridal style because he did not want his wife for anything, Alice wrapped her hands around Kenan's neck staring intensely at the worried face of the husband.

It didn't take long, both of them had reached the basement floor of the mall. Kenan immediately lowered Alice down quietly, "Mas, let's just go home. Alice no longer felt pain." Said Alice holding Kenan's wrist.

"Are you sure, baby?" Ask Ken to make sure again,

"Remain, maybe it was just a cramp because I walked a lot today." Alice replied softly.

Kenan crouched down in front of Alice's big belly, stroking softly as she said, "Hugeot..princess, don't make your mama hurt ya."

Alice smiled and immediately got into the car, Ken immediately ran around the car after making sure the wife was sitting safely and comfortably. Both do not know the gender of the baby in Alice's stomach, let it be the most beautiful gift for two large families.

Slowly the sedan left the basement floor and mingled with other vehicles on the highway to the main mansion. Travelling almost thirty mneits because the streets are quite crowded.

"Why did you take Alice away so long, Ken." Image protests on his son.

Kenan only gave a small snort, since Citra contemplated Grandpa Wijaya's departure and focused on caring for Alice and her granddaughter to be more overprotective to Alice.

"It's not wrong Kenan, Ma. Alice didn't want to go home because she was shopping for baby." Alice answered gently holding the back of her mother-in-law's hand that was already coiled in the arm.

"Here you go clean your body and go down to dinner." Say a gentle image to Alice.

"We go to the room first, Ma." Pamit Alice's.
