UNINTENTIONALLY

Episode 151

“For what cares about the criticism of others if it can not make you excited. Think positive things, God stands alone without anyone's help. Just like you. Work alone, without waiting for praise from others.”

_____________________________________________

Dinda's mind is glued to the events as Steve makes a fancy surprise at an expensive restaurant in France.

And it makes Dinda feel happy even though wrapped in dislike for her romantic gift.

At that time Dinda was pregnant, and the content was still a few weeks. The surprise of her pregnancy was countered by a romantic surprise by Steve. But the prize is so expensive, that's why Dinda doesn't like it.

“Sayang. I hope tonight you don't repeat the events in Paris. I don't want you to do it again for me.”

Steve was tidying up his black suit, while Dinda was still sitting at the dresser putting earrings in his ears.

“You just calm down. I won't repeat something my wife doesn't like.”

“You promised earlier. Must be tepati.”

Steve nodded obediently. “You are sure of me. This handsome husband of yours won't make any weird surprises again.”

If you remember, Dinda feels guilty for refusing an expensive gift from Steve when in Paris at that time. But not the type of having to accept something of great value.

Dinda stared at the reflection of her body from the mirror. White dress lacy flowers beautiful red color is increasingly add elegance.

While her husband looks back and forth behind her, I don't know what he was looking for. But Dinda felt that from the reflection of the mirror in front of her.

“Search what the hell. How to feel dizzy yourself.”

Dinda curious. Moreover, her husband was looking for something to ruffle the bed. Messy.

“I found a Swiss watch gift from you at our dinner that time. You see no?”

“Ngak,” reply Dinda shook her head.

Dinda helped him to look. Dinda rolled her eyeballs, looking all the way here and there.

“You may have forgotten to leave it. In the bathroom? Usually you put it there.”

As Dinda remembered, the clock was water-repellent. Sometimes Steve doesn't let go in the shower, and it's normal for Dinda that Steve often forgets to pull over.

“It doesn't seem like. I left it on the bed earlier.”

Dinda. She was lazy to stand up especially for a night out with her husband. But this was forced. In order to help her husband. He had to exercise a little, move his body.

“Nih. I said what too. You must have forgotten to leave her where,” said Dinda interrupting her husband with the clock she had just found. Dinda pointed out, if actually Steve did not go far away from the watch.

“Me where?”

Steve grabbed the favorite clock given by his wife, then pinned it in his hand. It's a pity that it's gone. Not because it's good or cheap, but it's special. Giving his wife during a vacation in Paris, France at that time.

“Tuh, under the pillow,” point Dinda towards the object she just called. It's happened, the bed's been ruffled this husband.

“Ckckck. I guess missing really.”

“You're sloppy,” timpal Dinda. And Steve just offended shamefully.

“We leave now?” steve asked to switch the conversation.

Dinda nodded. Raising the dress she was wearing, Dinda walked over. Followed by her husband who also went outside the room.

“This is the surprise you want to show me?”

Dinda looked at her husband's face. He purposely prepares a romantic surprise dinner for Dinda.

Steve nodded kindly with a smile. A lot of food stopped by at their table. The number is many, until confused for Dinda want to taste which one first.

"

“Since you were pregnant up to eight months now. I've never taken you out to eat again. And it doesn't feel fair that I just continue to taste my wife's cooking.”

Dinda grunts. “Befit to wear this Cloak coat.”

“That's because I want you not to stress because at home continue.”

The atmosphere of the restaurant is a bit dark, just accompanied by candles. And there was a dim light, it wasn't too bright either.

“Sorry yes if I have made you anxious because of the incident a moment ago.”

Steve took one hand from Dinda. And he stroked the back of his hand gently. “You don't discuss that issue anymore. It's our romantic dinner. Let's just eat, forget all the events that have passed.”

Dinda smiled in a friendly smile. Her husband is very understanding. However, the incident at that time when she cried about postpartum death, made Dinda embarrassed to ever say it.

I have never regretted marrying my husband. He was always understanding. Never one who doesn't notice me. But I foolishly said something about death.

Ah, I feel guilty if I remember that incident. You stupid woman.

Steve sliced the meat stick into pieces, then gave it to Dinda.

“You eat this. I've cut it.”

And this is Steve's nature. He was never the one absent every time he cut a stick for his wife. Unknowingly, his romantic attitude was coming out by itself. Dinda paid enough attention to her husband's behavior.

“For our baby. For your sake. I want this romantic dinner to be remembered. And for the sake of celebrating the gestational age of my wife who is almost entering the age of nine months.”

Dinda smiled in her mouth while chewing. “You are a responsible and caring husband. I'm happy if my little baby has a father who's not just handsome. But also attentive and warm.”

“Forwardly I will not forget Iqbal and his Mother,” Steve said, saying to Dinda's stomach.

Dinda looks happy. The people who were eating near them. Just fixated on seeing the behavior of this young father-to-be.

“Sorry baby if your husband only gives private dinner is not too fancy like this. I'm very concerned about what my wife's appetite is like. I'm afraid, you'll reject it if I do it luxuriously.”

“No. This is more than enough for me. I'm glad to receive it.”

Did Dinda expect more? Nah! Just like this, Dinda was happy. Dinda remembered, whenever Steve was hungry, he asked her to eat outside. But her husband refused to do so.

So all this time, never again did Steve eat fast food. He only ate the food that Dinda made. The reason is simple, Steve loves whatever Dinda makes. And that, Dinda made it lovingly, even though midnight had to wake his wife, Steve didn't care. Hidhi.

Steve was just a whimper when his memory retreated to his ridiculous story all along. Dinda's spoiled and troublesome behavior, made Steve sober. How lucky he is to have a wife like Dinda. While Dinda was astonished to see her husband who chuckled for no reason.

“You why. How to smile for yourself?”

****

“I told you. I'm not going back to Shanghai anytime soon. Why do you always force!”

Stevie was furious when the voice on the phone said she knew nothing.

However, Stevie's apparent annoyance led him to vent all his anger on the television in front of him.

“Vie. I just want you to see me as the man who loves you. I just want you to understand that I'm a man who is very much looking forward to your love. Please Vie, appreciate my feelings.”

From behind Stevie's flat object, the soft-spoken man pleaded. But Stevie is no different than loud on this voice call.

“You heard it again. I'm not gonna do it. I say it again. I am currently focusing on my career. I don't have time to talk about love. Don't expect us to get married, unless I'm khilaf!”

A moment after he said, Stevie then disconnected the phone call from this soft-spoken man. Then throw his gawai just about anywhere on the sofa. He bounced, then fell to the floor. Stevie didn't take it, instead she let her salary there. Not change position. That's an iPhone mbak, if you thank me, I'd gladly accept.

“Prude people only. May he be doomed tomorrow,” his chirp is upset. At the end of his sentence he somewhat cursed the voice of the caller.

****

After taking Dinda to eat at the restaurant as a romantic dinner. Steve takes Dinda to the park, right where the night she said her love to Dinda was that night.

Because Dinda was wearing a special pregnant woman's sleeveless dress, Steve covered Dinda's exposed shoulder in her black suit. He occupied Dinda on a park bench, while looking at the stars in the sky.

“Sayang. Tonight Father and Mother take you for a walk. You must be happy to be taken out.”

Steve gently stroked his wife's stomach, sometimes kissing her, sometimes eavesdropping on the movements of the baby inside. Always was. Steve didn't want to miss any info about the baby in there. Perhaps, if he could control it, Steve would keep an eye on Dinda's content for up to twenty-four hours. But unfortunately, the activities are many, so it is not enough to observe the distended stomach.

“I'm curious. What if Iqbal is born. Will he be as handsome as his father. Or will he look like his fragile mother,” said Dinda dreamt.

Steve looked at Dinda's face. That happy smile will not disappear just because of curiosity just overshadowed the face of this boy who is definitely this man.

“If he was a boy, then he would be as handsome as his father. But if a woman. I'm sure, she'll be as pretty as her mother's face.”

I don't know. Dinda herself was confused, how her son would look like. She was looking forward to her little baby quickly coming out.

Dinda leaned her head on Steve's shoulder, trying to reminisce about moments where they had not previously been attached to any love.

“You remember a time when I helped you to a hotel. I used to be so scared and nervous every time I saw my husband. But now, my husband has left a trail.”

Steve gently stroked Dinda's hair, then his hand went down to the face. “I'm sorry if as long as it troubles you.”

It's not a problem for Dinda. It was just that the memories of that arrogant man had now turned into something precious. This man had completely changed, no longer arrogant for his sake.

“Honey,” whining Dinda. His views were not on Steve, but Steve's views were fixed on his wife.

“What's up?”

“I'm very happy now.”

“Cih,” Steve snorted while smiling thinly. "You admit it?"

Dinda nodded. “I'm happy because our family will be complete later.”

“All that is because there is this little baby later.”

Steve stroked again and again Dinda's big belly. It feels anxious to see his wife's stomach getting tighter and tighter.

“I'm really happy now. My wife has given me immeasurable happiness by presenting my little baby later. I can't wait for the birth of my son.”

“You too soon want to have it. To the point of forgetting me,” alluded to Dinda.

Ah, Steve knows. Dinda is coding. Steve sensitized this time, grabbed Dinda's face, then kissed her lips. Where maybe Steve will mess up other parts of his wife besides the lips. Or, maybe while enjoying the night, Dinda will contract. Steve can't imagine.

Then there was the news, 'A pregnant woman suddenly contracted while in the gauli of her husband. And it's very worrying.' Huh, Steve was horrified that it would become news later. Huek, he's already goosebumps.

“My wife's lips are sweet,” Steve. “As cery.”

Dinda blushed, but every heart tasted it. But still this man wanted to scoop his lips. “My husband is always teasing.”

Steve chuckles, Dinda should be proud to have a husband like her.

“About our move to Shanghai. We should have told Mom by now. I'm afraid there's no time to tell Mom.”

Oh, Steve almost forgot they haven't said anything. Yes, almost a year ago Dinda and Steve never again discussed their move to Shanghai.

“We should go to Mom's house now. And we say that we will move to Shanghai after you give birth.”

Steve hasn't wanted to move there yet. Because of Dinda's pregnancy at the beginning of the end of the year, making plans for the move void. In the end, they were forced to cancel the plan.

“Iya. We better go to Mom's now. I should know that we're moving.”

“Car brother Steve,” reprimand Dendy.

They were in front of the gate of the house, and the car was parked in the small garage of the house. Miko nodded, Dendy was familiar with Steve's car.

“Ayo Den sign in,” invite Miko.

Dendy is indeed his intention tonight to stay at Miko's house. They had just returned home from basketball practice at an off-school arena.

Miko and Dendy just got home. So far, both have their own schedules. Earlier, before playing basketball together, Miko had just finished shooting.

Miko is currently used as a clothing model for distros and boutiques. Because the portion of the body is high, suitable to be made as a model. So it is natural that Miko began to cultivate her profession due to the polish of the results of the trial in Steve's office.

Um. By the way, Miko is currently a model of bridal wear. And his face pamphlets were scattered all over the mall. If you haven't seen it, you're probably rarely at the mall. Hidhi.

“Sister Dinda, Brother Steve. How are you?” greet Miko. He takes the man's hands, kissing him followed by Dendy who is in line with Miko.

“Alright,” reply Steve. “You yourself. What about his job?” this time Steve asked.

Miko sat near her mother, and was cool when her mother provided a cup of tea. Moreover, there were many snacks on the table, and the mouth was impatient to eat it.

“Current course brother. Just can't handle the job. Because once the photo shoot took a lot of pictures.”

Miko was indeed relaxed, she had indeed not thought about her future at all.

“By the way, why did Brother Dinda and brother Steve come here at night. Not as usual.”

“Ehm. We jngin say something,” reply Steve.

“Important?” Miko. He really wanted to know what Steve wanted to say.

“Not too important really,” reply Dinda said. “Sister Dinda and brother Steve will move to Shanghai if they have given birth. That's why we came here."

“Keep Mother?” show Miko.

Yuri's mother resigned. He could only open his arms. Those who run the household ark. Yuri's mother can do what.

“Mother is not currently Dinda's guardian anymore. And son Steve must know the best at the moment.”

Miko nodded her head a few times.

“Good. Final decision!”

I guess I'll miss Dinda one day.
