The Voice of the Husband
Izmir
The next night after dinner, everyone returned to their rooms. Including Yumna, the little girl who had been whining this afternoon. She sleeps with her beloved daddy and mommy. Because it is special to travel, Yumna always sleeps between two people she cares about.
Feeling the warm embrace of his daddy and mommy is the thing that always makes Yumna addicted. But no, Naren as a daddy does not spoil Yumna too much when at home. Yumna had to get used to sleeping in her own room. This includes training for independence.
Now, Yumna crunched between daddy and mommy who had been sitting together on the bed. Yumna hugged mommy and drowned her face in the armpits of the mommy who was wrapped in a long nightgown in thick discussion.
"Mommy, let's talk about the princess." Hearing the little voice of her daughter, Nara immediately prepared to start the story as usual.
Storytelling is a famous story in Indonesia. Good for children, adults and even the elderly. Who does not know the story of Cinderella the owner of glass shoes? Surely everyone knows the story. In fact, several times filmed abroad with real characters.
"Have you slept?" naren whispered as a soft snore sounded at the end of the story.
Nara nodded slowly. Then stick his index finger to his lips. Codes for Naren to shut up. Because, Yumna had not slept completely.
Naren, who understood Nara's intentions, nodded his head in return. Returning to the glowing screen, Naren focused his mind on the work sent by e-mail.
After feeling good, Nara woke up from her position, which was originally her hand as a Yumna head pillow, now she can pull and replaced with a real pillow. Then slowly move to the edge of the bed. Afraid of Yumna waking up because of the squealing sound caused by her small movements.
Huh!
After exhaling a sigh of relief because Yumna did not wake up, Nara immediately went to the bathroom to clean up. It didn't take long, Nara came out of the bathroom with a wet face. Water dripped onto the nightgown she was wearing, making a mark there.
"You want to go to sleep?" the question came out of Naren's lips when he saw Nara coming out of the bathroom.
"Yes. Tomorrow I want a reunion. So, I have to go to bed early." Nara answered while sitting at the dresser. His hands grabbed the night moisturizer and started rubbing it against the face.
"Where's reunion? Alone?" Naren turned off his laptop, then closed it and put it in a special bag.
Naren got up from the bed slowly, mimicking Nara's style. "Yes, tomorrow I'll see you with Yumna." after saying that, Naren passed to the bathroom to clean up.
Nara got up from her chair, grabbed a phone that seemed to be crowded. Sure enough, when Nara opened her green app, hundreds of messages she got from her college class group first. They're talking about tomorrow's show. Of course, many of Nara's friends were already in Turkey a few days before their reunion. So, no need to worry they will not come. Definitely come.
"Your friends brought their families too?" Nara turned her back to hear a question from Naren who had just finished cleaning.
"Yes. They also made it mandatory to bring their partners in for the reunion." Nara replied after reading some of the top messages.
"Yes, now we sleep." invited Naren who was immediately agreed by Nara.
They both went up to the bed. Pull a thick blanket to cover the body so as not to get cold. Then clenched the tiny body of Yumna who had been curled up with her smooth snoring. It was certain that the little girl slept well.
"Good night."
"Night."
