When Love Is Present

Chapters 101. Preparation.

The ultrasound is completed by an expert doctor. Vim helped Laras wake up after the obstetrician examined Laras. Vim is satisfied with the results of the examination. The sex of the baby is in line with Vim's expectations.

"This is already visible. He's a baby boy." Speak to the doctor with a happy tone.

Vim's smile expands. He looked at Laras triumphantly.

"Here are his legs, his hands and his heart healthy."

Vim led Laras to sit on a chair.

"Mothers eat more fruits in addition to energy. Don't forget to take the vitamins." Doctor's message.

"Good doctor. Thank you." Thank you." Barrel did not stop smiling. Happy to hear that the baby is okay.

"I'll get a rival. No longer the most handsome in the house." Vim Canda.

"Don't do that. It's still number one for me." They were in the car heading to the baby shop.

"I have a lot of plans for him."

"I thought. But don't let him get tired of following your will."

"He will be able to follow me Laras. She's male. We're all men. He'll inherit what he taught us from papi."

"Yes.iya." Barrel remains relaxed. Vim has devised his own plan to educate his son.

"Put it here sir. All have been taken?"

"All of den. There is no more stuff in the car. Excuse me, den." Mr. Uun left the room.

All baby gear is placed in the lower room. They just got home from buying baby stuff. Pregnancy Laras enters the seventh month. The barracks rejoiced in preparing for the birth of their baby.

Today Laras accidentally asked Vim to drive him shopping. On the recommendation of Anggia's wife Dion, they went to a special store for baby and toddler supplies.

The store hours are open, Laras and Vim are already there. There are not many buyers. Initially Vim asked Baras to choose the goods online only then the goods will be sent to their address but Laras refused. He was not satisfied not to see directly

the belongings. Moreover, this is for the first time they prepare everything for their baby. An unforgettable experience. Laras will not forget this moment.

"This is a good mask. This is Marsha's motive." Laras. In his hand holding a baby diaper different motives. One motive is Marsha and another motive is Avatar.

"How can a boy use a girl's pattern?"

"Oh yes. Then which one? You can choose."

"I'd rather that plain one."

"That? I guess because he's a baby, patterned like this is more interesting."

"This is Doraemon's motive." Motif cartoon child figures in small sizes become the choice of Vim.

Baras doesn't want to argue. He chose to give up.

Nets, bathtubs and places where clothes are not left out are chosen.

"Brown gold color."

Vim shakes.

"Blue or gray white. It's a man's color."

"She's just like her papi." Barrel saw another thing.

"Well, look at this. Vim holds a baby tub in gray."

"Perfect shades of blue or bluish white. It's brighter mas."

"I agree." Word Vim.

"IIip. Just bed."

Almost everything was bought by them. Some items will be delivered to the house, especially the baby bed and bathtub.

"While let it all be here. When the room's over we'll lay it out again upstairs."

"It is better that the bed is not far from us. It's easier to reach out if he cries at night."

There is always a difference of opinion between them.

"The room is not far from us Baras. Connected one door. Teach him to be independent. Okay?" That's Vim's opinion.

Instead, Laras wants their baby to sleep in one bed with his father and mother. Vim disagrees.

"Pity mas. He's so small."

"Look how later. What is clear is that I will make the door and the next room into his room so that if he cries in the middle of the night we can easily lift it."

Vim is getting older. Becoming a father is her dream. Getting serious about work and saving.

It feels like just yesterday mom and mom made a four-month pregnancy show Laras. Last night mom said she'd be holding a seven-month salute. Baras according to it let alone its implementation at the mother's house. Not in their homes.

"Do you need a race?" Ask Vim.

"I don't know, but just follow the will of the parents. Aawws!"

"Why? What's that hurting?"

"He kicked my stomach. Baby don't be strong." The barrel stroking her stomach calms the baby inside.

"Hey good boy. Can't wait to get out. Take it easy, papi will take you to play ball if you grow up." Vim helped stroke Laras' stomach.

Then the days passed with new things that Laras felt. He began to feel difficulty sleeping on his back and his stomach grew bigger.

"Morning is very good for you. No need to go far and don't sleep in the morning." Order mom when contacting Laras. The barrel only knows if the morning is the time to work. The rest only knew when the mother delivered the message.

"Good ma'am. Look at this sweat Barrel. Just had a morning walk around the house." Conversations through the mobile phone are ongoing. It's easy these days, connecting with each other only through video calls.

"Have a morning walk with Vim..Barrels. So that someone watches."

"Good mom. Mother don't worry. Mas Vim husband standby.hahaa!"

"Eiiits.what are you saying?"

Suddenly Vim appears behind Barrel.

"Mas Vim husband standby. Ready when I need. Yes mother. The morning provides warm water for me to take a bath, then make me milk and then accompany me wherever I go."

"Thank you, Vim."

"Sama-sama mom. It's my duty."

"Face yourself with Laras. Get here first. I have to fix it."

"Alright mom. I'm keeping it healthy."

Mom nodded and the call ended.

"He's good, baby." Laras. For Laras rubbing the stomach means giving affection to the baby.

The barrel looks at the baby equipment that is piled up in the corner of the lower room. Two days ago my mom sent them a carpet home. Mom to use in the nursery. The room is not finished. The work will start in three days. Waiting for someone who is in another city.

Baras remembered a stroller. Yeah they forgot to pick a baby stroller when they were at the baby supply store but that's okay. The goods were purchased only.

Vim sipped the unsalted tea that aunt prepared. Some traditional cakes accompany the tea.

"Aren't you tired of going up and down stairs?" Vim suddenly remembered the stairs they went through every day leading to the bedroom.

"Ehm no. I'm riding slowly."

"We'd better move in this room just so you don't get tired up and down. How's it?"

"Mas is okay. I'm in good health." The barrel holds Vim's shoulder. Sit down with Vim in the front room. This room is next to the two rooms below.

Vim just wants to see the barrel with the stomach getting bigger. Sure tiring. From here the feeling of regret gets stronger.

...*****...

One morning..

"For the mistress."

"Morning too. Let's go in sis."

"Please sit. Wait sis, I'll change my clothes first." Laras.

"Please mistress."

Guests looked around the room as soon as Laras disappeared. The photo of the couple emblazoned with elegant figura. The beautiful woman and the handsome man. The child what is the combination of the two? It was a silly question he thought. Of course if the baby is female sex will be beautiful face and if the baby boy born will be handsome.

"Sis. We're inside ya." Laras invites gymnastics instructors to Vim's sports room. There has been a carpet available for Baras to do pregnancy gymnastics. According to the instructor, this gymnastics is very good for smoothing labor.

They sit on the carpet.

"We do move carefully and madam follow me yes. Sit cross-legged like this and put your hands here. Relax, madam." Instructors began to count.

"Now change style." Gymnastics instructors give instructions. The barrel followed the movements of this woman in front of him. She was about thirty and above but mastered the pregnancy gymnastics movement.

Until the last move Laras did with caution. They stop after completion and sit relieving fatigue especially for Baras.

"Means the lady gave birth in November." Sis Ita gymnastics instructor.

"real sis. Hopefully smoothly."

"May mistress. Born healthy."

"Thank you for praying sis Ita. Dipped cake. Auntie made the cake."

"Thank you."

Not long after that sis Ita pamitan home. Laras asked aunt to clear the gymnastics room.

"Not her gymnastics non?"

"Lelah bi's. I'm going to go up to the room."

Aunt looked at Laras who was walking up the stairs. Next to his hand held the ladder fence and left hand held his back.

"Non.aunt bring the juice up ya." Auntie cried

"May bi."

"Good."

The barrel flushed his body with an air shower. Fresh felt. Likewise, when shampoo he used to clean his hair that began to grow long.

The hair was left elongated during her pregnancy. The barrel body is back fresh. The fatigue is gone.

On the rocking chair Laras leaned his back. The seat moves forward and backward. I knocked on the door and went into the room.

"Thank you bi."

"Same-sama non."

Aunty was about to come out but Laras called her.

"I'm sorry, please get me a box of yarn over there."

"It's non?"

"It's bi."

"Don't forget to eat yes. Auntie's afraid of non-inflatability."

"No bi. I'll eat."

The events that passed by Laras always fell asleep in the rocking chair until he fell asleep there. Juice is drunk. The barrel continues to knit the threads in a box above the lap. The knitting is almost done.

The barrel intends to finish the knitting. Then he will make another knit that is the same color and shape. The second is shorter.

Knitting stops changing long yawning. Sleepy barrel. Slept for a while then he would eat the food delivered by his aunt after waking up.

Soft elusan makes the Barrel's eyes open. He found Vim crouching beside him.

"I'm sorry to interrupt. I've been very careful but you wake up too. You're tired, aren't you?"

"After the gymnastics and then the bath, my body feels fresh. Not long after that I fell asleep and fell asleep."

"This food you let. It's chill. Eat it."

"Don't eat?" The barrel justifies his sitting position.

"It has. It's almost done." Vim observes the results of the knitting of the Avas.

"Yes, I'll do one more. This one's for Vim."

"Wow this means a lot. My wife's work." Vim gives a kiss on Laras' forehead.

"Well, will the room workmanship not bother you?"

"What do you mean?"

"This room will be renovated. A little noise will happen. Doesn't it bother you?" Ask Vim.

"The work was only a few days. That's not disturbing. I'm downstairs with my aunt. Napping hitchhiking in aunt's room."

Aunts room is located in the back next to their driver Uun sir's room. It is located a bit far from the main house so it is not too disturbed by the sound of the handyman working. Baras can take a break there.

"You can go to my mom's house if you want to get the handyman to work." Vim advises.

"I'm just here. A little noisy for baby to get used to and not be surprised by the noise." Clear Barrel.

"A could have."

"It's really mas. So that later the baby is used to sleeping in a quiet state or crowded by sound."

"acceptable. How is he today?" Ask Vim to know.

"He's not naughty. Gymnastics runs smoothly until it is finished. He's a good boy."

"Who was the papa, I.

"Getting started. My mother." Laras doesn't want to lose. Everyone feels they have a stake in the baby.

"Haha..Finish eating. I'm going to the next room."

"You what?"

"just look. The stuff over there has to be taken out."

As in the other rooms in the house, this room has complete furniture from the bed to the sofa. The room was never occupied so his belongings were never touched every day.

"The goods are sold only. There's nowhere to keep it." Vim came back after looking at the next room.

"Why good, baby. The stomach feels full." Barrel ended the lunch.

"Don't be forced if full. It's a drink."

"Thank you, sir."

"I promised Dion tennis. Wake me up."

Laras. While Vim took a nap, Laras continued knitting. Heard Vim snoring slowly. Probably exhausted today despite working half a day.

The barrel receives incoming messages from Ririn. The list of items sold last month and the rest Ririn sent to Laras. Ririn sends out the list every month.

Baras was grateful the shop could run smoothly even though he did not intervene directly. Ririn's best friend can be relied upon to manage the store because Laras intends to give Ririn and Nila a bonus.

'Sirin I transferred some money for you. With different amounts. Thank you for your efforts in maintaining and running the store.' Typing barrel on mobile. Message sent.

'Thank you, Laras. May the blessings increase, healthy baby grandpa and much sustenance.'

Ririn replied. Barrel smiled. His smile was sweet as sugar and that smile also made Vim drunk.

Trays containing lunch marks are brought down. He carries with caution especially when going down the stairs. Fortunately it did not slip and Barrel arrived in the kitchen safely.
