We Are Different

Cravings

"Maaaas" call Aluna.

Aluna's pregnancy is now in its third month. Nausea due to young pregnancy first trimester is gone. Aluna's appetite advanced rapidly and Malik always enjoyed the view of Aluna eating with more than one food menu.

"Yes yaank" said Malik.

"I'm a laper" whined Aluna.

"What do you want for dinner tonight?" ask Malik.

"Eat yuk fried rice" Aluna asked.

Thank God tonight is just fried rice. Thank you son your request tonight is not difficult. Inner Malik was grateful.

"Come, where do you want to eat fried rice?" ask Malik.

"Fried rice near Auntie Dwi's house. Our subscription for dating time first" replied Aluna.

Malik's face was shining. If Aluna does not remind maybe he also has forgotten their subscription fried rice stalls in college.

"It's been a while since we didn't eat there. Let's go there" invites Malik spirit.

Aluna and Malik were ready to leave.

"Where are you going, brother?" ask Said.

"You eat fried rice" replied Aluna.

"Where to eat?" tanya Said was curious.

"Fried rice stalls near the house of Auntie Dwi" replied Aluna.

"Come Said?" bring Malik.

"May as well Mas, who's near the entrance to Aunt's house right? I also like to eat there first" said Said.

"Yes, if so, come with us" said Malik.

They locked the house and went where they were headed. Half an hour later they had arrived at their fried rice stall.

"Was Malik, right?" ask the fried rice seller.

"Yes sir" replied Malik.

"It's a long time not eating here. You used to eat here with your girlfriend, right, Aluna?" ask the man.

"Yes sir, this is the man" Malik replied.

Because Aluna is now wearing a hijab and fatter because pregnant the fried rice seller does not recognize Aluna.

"Lho Nak Aluna is changing now, fat pepper" greeted the man.

Aluna's face turned irritated.

"Alhamdulillah sir is pregnant. Even though fat but it's more beautiful sir" cut Malik who is afraid of Aluna sulking because he has seen the change in Aluna's face.

"You guys are married apparently. Where is the soul mate not going. Years - years of courtship finally married too" said the man.

"Aluna again cravings sir, kangen eat fried rice made by Mr" said Malik.

"Then wait a minute, let me make it for you" said the fried rice seller.

"Pak use cow's eye eggs yes but do not be too mateng" pinta Aluna.

"Okay son, wait a minute" the man replied excitedly.

The man immediately sprightly and deftly made three servings of fried rice for Malik, Aluna and Said.

Soon enough, the fried rice was finished. Aluna immediately ate it with spirit. Not finished the fried rice on his plate Aluna had ordered a second fried rice.

"Save one more serving yes" pinta Aluna.

Malik and Said exchanged lyrics.

"Pantesan Nak Aluna body is very healthy, the spirit of eating is extraordinary" said the man.

Aluna's face turned sad. Malik immediately took the strategy so that his wife did not sulk.

"You are healthy again, baby because there is our child in it. Don't be angry, the Father will say good - good" comfort Malik.

"Am I really fat?" ask Aluna.

"No, you're getting more beautiful" Malik praised.

Aluna again ate the fried rice in front of him until it ran out. Then the second plate came. It was in front of him that Aluna's face was no longer excited.

"I'm full" said Aluna.

Said and Malik looked at each other.

Gawat, our address again this is exhausted. Batin Said resigned.

Aluna has been a habit since pregnancy always order a lot of food but she can not eat it all. Finally Malik and Said are always the trash cans.

"Duh Mas I'm full" Said declined.

"You didn't mean I didn't order it just now. Eat after Kak Luna eats" Said continued.

Malik smiled looking at the face of his sister-in-law who was often a victim of his wife's satiety.

"Yes, we have wrapped it up then" Malik said.

"Sir" Malik called the fried rice seller.

"Yes Malik" replied the man.

"Last plate please wrap yes sir" pinta Malik.

"The plate is also Mas?" ask Aluna.

Said who did not hear the tone asked Aluna was immediately surprised to look at her brother.

"Sir Luna wants to eat her plate too?" tanya Said plain.

"Uh you" Luna directly patted her sister's shoulder.

"Aaaww. "pekik Said.

"What plates can be eaten?" ask Aluna.

"Well, I was surprised, because your child's taste is very good. Not only do fried rice but the dishes follow in embat" Said replied.

Malik smiled looking at his sister-in-law's face.

"You exist - there is Said" Malik said.

"So how, really the plate wants to be wrapped as well?" asked the father of the fried rice seller with a confused face.

Said smiled at the man's question

"No sir, just fried rice" replied Malik.

"Oh good son" said the man.

The man selling fried rice immediately lifted one plate of fried rice from the last order of Aluna and wrapped the contents. After that he returned with a plastic bag and gave it to Aluna.

"This is Nak Luna" said the man.

"Thank you, sir" said Aluna.

"Samely, may Nak Luna and her future children be healthy until the birth" said the man.

"Aamiiin." welcome Aluna, Malik and Said.

After finishing eating Malik immediately paid for all their orders then they all walked to the car and went home.

In front of the security guard post Malik stopped and gave a packet of fried rice last night for the security guard who was guarding the night.

"Thank you Mr. Malik" said the security guard.

"Same - same sir" said Malik.

"Have another dinner, huh, Mas?" ask the man.

"Yes sir as always" replied Malik.

The man laughed at Malik's reply.

"Sabar Mas emang so pregnant women. But Masnya do not follow the meal can - can later his body groan - menggalahin Mbak Luna who is again pregnant" the man's message.

"Yes, once - once" replied Malik.

"Udah first yes Mas, I went home first" said Malik.

The man waved his hand towards Malik.

Malik continued his journey home. Aluna was asleep next to him.

"Where are we?" ask Said.

"Yes as usual Said. Please open the door" Malik asked.

"Okay" welcome Said.

Said immediately opened the door of the house while Malik carried Aluna and brought her into the room. Slowly Said put Aluna on the bed and took off her hijab.

Aluna looked very well asleep. Malik smiled as he gently stroked the top of Aluna's head and gently kissed Aluna's forehead.

"Good sleep baby, good dreams" Malik whispered to Aluna.
