Rio was confused to find his wife who was helpless beside him—of course because of the activity just now that drained his stomach. Guilt was again present because again he could not do anything, even to just ease the burden experienced by his wife.
“If I could replace you working outside, I would have done it,” he said staring at his wife. “All day long, I can only see you are busy. Jumping here and there for money, not to mention having to take care of me, Feby and Dirly.”
“Makanya quickly recover... let you can help me.” Rahma held her husband's hand and put it on her cheek to make him feel comfortable. “I love you, Brother...very.”
“Me too,” reply Rio with eyes condensing. The two hugged and cried for some time. Before they finally heard both of their parents enter the house.
“Yo!” call his mother directly to hug the child so tightly. “You're finally home. I'm sorry, yes, Yo. Forgive Mom. You must have left because you were depressed by Mother..”.
Rio did not argue but also did not agree. He just let his mother think so so that he realized with his attitude during this— with hope, he slowly began to change.
“Mother promises to love you more and daughter-in-law Mother.” This woman grabs Rahma's hand after stretching her embrace, “Five first years of marriage are the toughest times, the, I understand because I've experienced it—but I hope you guys will stick around until you can get through these tough times..”.
Rahma smiled with wet eyes. But this time it was not tears of sorrow, but tears of extraordinary novelty. He came closer and hugged them both.
Kusuma who saw the interaction of the two of them then took off his glasses because they looked blurred.
“Mommy will help you heal, Yo. I'll come here every day to see you. I don't care you guys are gonna be sick of seeing my face.”
“Ya is obviously bored if you are chatty,” said Dad was very straightforward. Making the wife look at him very horror. “Bless to be honest even if it hurts.”
“But your honesty can shake the world, Well.” this time Rio also commented so the three then laughed crisply. Gone were already the stiffness between them, alternating with a happy feeling.

After Rio came back from his house, Yudha headed straight for the living room. He not only found his wife there, but there was Umi and also Dara. There was also a nurse and her three children, but they were in front of the television which was a bit far from them sitting.
“Tumben on collect here?”
“We're all watching you, Mas. Afraid of talking weirdly with him who asked his wife to be married again,” chirped Dara.
“Yes, where possible,” says Yudha.
“Maybe, you should be wary, because you like light hands. The proof, when we are in trouble like this, you're helping them instead,— this time Vita also commented, ”the cost of cancer treatment abroad is quite good, Mas. Moreover, Singapore.know for itself, how much lodging costs there. Not to mention to eat it everyday.”
“From marriage again.” The man smiled annoyingly as usual.
“Awas later at night sleeping outside you know, Nak.” Umi Ros reminded.
“Sleeping outside does not matter as long as both.”
“There's only your answer,” said Umi moved from her seat, “Umi want to go to the room first, take your wife to the room, yes. Don't sleep too well tonight. You see, your wife had a contraction.” After saying this, Umi Ros went into her room, for Abah called to make her drink. It is said that he has a toothache.
“Contraction?” Yudha looked at his wife who was stroking her stomach.
“Tadi ... not now. Now it is common again,” said Vita who already looks more relaxed than before. “I was shocked just now when I heard Mr. Rio told you to marry Rahma. Make sebel.”
“Serious you contraction?” tanya Yudha makes sure, “or you want to see a doctor, mumpung not too late.” The man looked at the watch on his left hand.
Dara says, “Iya, Ta. Mending just checked. So that if there is anything you can know earlier.”
“I know what my condition is like, I'm fine, okay?” Vita stared at the two in turn, “the most important thing is you Mas, do not make a melee again. I believe you help them because you are capable. Already... done.”
“That Maimunah still motion-motion ‘kan?” yudha asked still looking panicked. The man had been traumatized by the pregnancy of his ex-wife. Not moving and presumed dead from last night, but not realized by him.
“Izh, rename again,” grumbled the wife.
“Where is your ex-boyfriend, Ra?” Yudha asked the woman who was currently shaking her head to see the interaction between the two of them, “tumben today has not been seen the trunk of her nose. Busy?”
“Again has a new job,” replied Dara half annoyed because during this day, she has not even been injected with vitamins by her husband.
“What work?”
“You are an affiliate?”
“Gosh,” Dara patted her forehead, “victim lambe tuwir looks like your husband, Ta.”
“Kan again viral now, the news is everywhere there is.” Tired of making the man sit leaning on the wife's shoulder while sniffing her fragrance. Luckily Dara's mentality is very well trained so it does not feel disturbed in the slightest by the strange scenery. 'It's a good thing I have Alif ba ta sa.'
“I so remember Doni wrongly eat,” said Dara laughed afterwards, “but do not get deh, Alif rich work so, Mas. If again less mending so kang cilok, fried kang, kang pecel, kang rujak..”.
“What is trading halal, Mas?” Vita asked.
“Many differences of opinion here. But if you want to be safe, it's better to stay away. After all, there are many other jobs.”
“Iya, anyway, good as it is,” Dara said in response.
As they were seriously chatting, there was the sound of crying from the three children playing under the stairs. So that Yudha immediately approached.
“Mauza is crying,” said Vita very recognize her voice, “she is a girl alone, so if crying is a bit of drama. Sometimes just to a little flick, he immediately met his papa. For her brother already know better now.”
“Girls are indeed more spoiled to her papa, Ta. Same as me.”
“But if Mauza is overdone, Dar. He's it when his cry is handsome boys. Because if persuaded me the same Mbak Ratih likes the old heal.”
Again Dara laughed out loud until the corner of her eyes watered.
“Ma...” call Rayyan to come closer and directly hug her Mom.
“What's dear?” answer Vita kiss the firstborn. “Why Does Adek cry, Ka?”
“Moza snatches toys with Umar, Ma. Though the toy has been given, but the Moza remains crying,” replied Rayyan complaining about what she saw just now.
“What did you say, earlier,” said Dara.
“That's ‘kan Mama Moja!” suddenly the voice of the little girl full of drama came with her father to shift the position of first brother.
“This is Mama Kaka too, De. How you are, anyway. Ade ugly!” said Rayyan finally upset with his sister that one.
“The brother is deluded. Kaka the smell of fart,” chirps Mauza.
“Eh ... Already, do not scramble. You're all Mama's kids. Mama's got Mauza, Umar's, Kaka Ray's got.” Vita grabs her two children, Mauza and Rayyan for her hug.
Not five seconds they embrace, come again one toughest boy, “Umal want to hug the same Onti aja,” the boy approached Dara and hustle up to his lap. There is no envy for this child. Umar is always other than others.
“Oh, yes, same Onti can also. Can bang.”
“Nah, you happened to come, so I have a partner,” Yudha said as soon as she saw her sister coming in.
Alif saw one by one all the people who were there in turn, it didn't take long until he understood the meaning of this man. “Ih, mang Gue what guy?” the man shuddered amusedly. “Gue, same hug Elo? Hoeeek.”
Yudha, however, did not care. He still forced Alif to accept his embrace so as to invite laughter for all who saw.
They only stopped when Abah emerged from the room with a coyo attached to the right-left cheek typical of elderly people.
“You make my teeth pulsate,” he said was disturbed by the rowdy atmosphere of all his children and grandchildren.
