"You why? Where are you from these nights?"
A worried tone was clearly heard from his mother.
"Any story, answered mom first?" Holding the shoulder of her child who kept crying.
"I'm from Bagas bu's mas house. I tried to plead not to be prosecuted, but Bagas instead refused violently and directly looked at me ma'am."
"Sorry, I said that's enough! Enough, take responsibility for all your actions. Why have you never heard of it?"
"I can't help Mom, I think I'd rather just die."
"Take care of your words, remember there is a fetus that you are currently carrying son." Speech softens.
Risah walked into her room, lamenting her fate. He continued to cry until he fell asleep on his own.
Somewhere else.
Am I too bad to throw him out? But it's all because of him. All because of his lies. Ah, I went wrong.
Bagas was at war with his own mind, the plan he had arranged to sleep again after expelling Risah turned out to be not as planned. Bagas stayed up all night, with thousands of delusions in the future with his wife and son.
...***...
Today Diana was preparing to go to the doctor in the village area. He also took Alif with him. It was impossible to continue to bother her brother just because of checking the contents. He looked for ojek around the village to go to the clinic. Because if the road is also impossible, too far.
"Na, where are you going?"
Sapa Rama when he saw Diana passing in front of his house.
"You check."
Check it??
"You sick?"
"Emm, no. Want to check the contents. It's schedule to check."
"Oh, yes you're pregnant. Yes let me deliver ya, kasian you if riding ojek must walk to the intersection again, far na."
"No need, thank you."
Keep walking with Alif.
Diana arrived at the intersection, where there was usually a perched ojek waiting for her rent.
However, this time it might be the unlucky Diana, not a single motorcycle taxi driver.
Why is there no ojek? I can do it, not usually. There is not even one.
His mind, while looking to the right and to the left, made sure that this was true there was no ojek.
"Mother why?"
"Ah, no dear, the motorcycle does not exist. Let's wait here for a second, shall we? Who knows if he's coming home again."
"Yes mother."
They sat in the usual hut where the ojek gathered. For almost an hour they waited but nothing, not a single ojek. Alif who started fussing because he was bored.
"Mother, come home. Alif is tired here."
"Alif, wait, son. I'm sorry that Alif's mom is tired."
Approaching his son to embrace.
"Why haven't you gone?"
An unfamiliar voice in Diana's ears. He looked directly at the origin of the sound.
"Yes, his ojek again eat at home maybe."
Diana tried not to bully this man before her. Turned out it was in vain, Rama got off his bike and walked over.
"I told you, let me take you. Don't you know, have you seen Alif?"
Alif who felt called his name immediately nodded. But he also doesn't know what it means.
Glanced at his son and exhaled.
"Alif, tomorrow we go, son."
"Yes mother. We're going home now, Mommy?"
"Yes dear."
Walk back home.
"Na? Yes, come on, same with me. Don't be selfish, Kasian Alif. You also have a child you bear. Away from her father makes your child sad. Let's just say I'm a motorcycle taxi driver, let me drive you."
True too he said. He could also take care of Alif if I checked.
Diana stops and grabs Rama's offer.
Yes, let's go, Rama.
"Yes already. But this is nothing, right? I'm afraid bang, if people who look will think negatively, like yesterday."
"Yes calm. Let's go up."
Rama turned his bike and was ready to go. Alif rose in front, while Diana sat on her side.
"The handle will fall."
While smiling a smile.
Diana did not answer him, along the way just silent. Rama took his bike slowly. And a few minutes have arrived at the destination. Diana felt awkward at this time, because it was not the husband who delivered but someone else, who was in fact her husband's half-brother.
"Thank you. Oh yeah bang, I tipped Alif first can, right?"
"You can go in there, check. May you and your child be healthy."
Diana just nodded. Then walk into the clinic.
Inside Diana did not queue, as today was not too crowded. Until he is ready to be examined, the doctor explains his current condition.
"So far so good ma'am, the baby's heartbeat is also normal. Only low maternal tension. Is it now frequent nausea and vomiting of food that has just been eaten?"
"Hem, yes doc. It was okay before."
Doctor smile.
"Sure ma'am, her name is pregnant too. I suggest not to think too much. It will affect the health of the mother as well as her fetus."
Giving medicine in the form of vitamins that Diana must drink.
"Mother came alone?"
"Not really mom. It's the same kid."
Pointing outwards. The doctor looked outwards where Diana's direction was pointing.
"Oh, why isn't the mother's husband in Suru sending her all the way inside?"
I'm confused as to what to answer. Rama said that he was a motorcycle, I was not wrong. Inner Diana.
"Oh yes. Don't forget to take your vitamins, ma'am. If there's a problem like cramping, come here immediately."
"Good doctor thank you."
Walk out of the room.
The doctor stared and then peeked out of the window, out of curiosity.
Ojek said. But why is he handsome, and the bike is good. There is no appearance at all if the ojek.
The doctor took Diana's words seriously.
"Have you? How's it?"
"Alhamdulillah the fetus is healthy. I'm the only one who's low."
"You have to take care of your health. Don't mind too much, no good."
Huh, why should I tell her what the doctor explained to her, Diana.
Rama returned to ride his bike after Diana got on the bike. The position is still the same as they left earlier. However, because the village streets are still ugly, Diana was forced to hold on to Rama. It made Diana more awkward.
"Na, I stopped by to buy rice at Mak Ros's shop first huh? From the morning have not eaten, do not cook."
"Oh yes, please. Later from the stall I go home on foot aja bang."
"No, there's no you."
Rama turned to the shop.
Actually Diana was very lazy and wanted to refuse, but it was very disrespectful to be in please chat anyway. And what was feared to be true, the stalls looked crowded. All of them simultaneously stared at their arrival with full investigation.
Diana let out a heavy sigh, and she was just waiting on the bike. Why also follow Rama into the stall, he thought.
When Rama entered the shop.
"Who is ma?"
Ask one of the mothers who ate at the stall. Eat either just sit and gossip.
"Oh neighbor ma'am."
"Why can you go the same way? Was her husband not angry?"
"No, her husband is no more. That's Ramini's daughter-in-law, who used to live here, you still remind me?"
"Ramini's? You mean Andre and Bagas' mother?"
This time, Ros answered. He was even very surprised.
"Yes Mak." replied Rama casually.
"Why do you know me?"
"Yes his name is also a neighbor, you must know."
"Don't approach anyone's wife. Remember, even if you're just dropping off, don't take a chance." Mak Ros's words were very serious, but not responded by Rama.
"It's 12thousand." Handing over the rice packet ordered by Rama.
His tone was not as friendly as usual.
"Mom first." He said politely to the mothers who had asked earlier.
After Rama stepped away, it was time for the mother to start gossiping.
"Eh mak, is it appropriate that there is still a husband going with another man. Is her husband not angry, anyway how the son-in-law of Ramini's mother. If it's my son-in-law, I've failed."
The one who spoke was silent.
How could? Diana was Ramini's daughter-in-law my old best friend. Why, could. Diana doesn't know her in-laws' past stories. And Rama, my goodness. I was so unexpected, the world was so narrow it turned out.
"Woi mak Ros's. Talked to daydreaming."
"Eh yes, it's just that you don't have to take care of people's lives. Anyway, you guys are here instead of food messages instead of just telling others."
The words of mak Ros were able to silence the mouths of the mothers sitting there.
"Have you?"
Asked Diana, who was feeling uneasy since the first time came already seen by many pairs of eyes.
"Well, I'll drive you home, okay?"
"Not bang. Come down in front of my brother's house, let me be the same Alif. That's enough trouble."
"Oh yes, then."
Diana gets off after the motorbike stops right in front of Rama's house. Diana thanked him again, and so did Alif.
When returning home, Diana immediately invited Alif to rest, because before leaving she had eaten.
In the afternoon Diana and Alif sat on the porch. Diana, if Alif busy himself with his new toy that Anton bought yesterday.
I'll call my sister, I want to tell you the results of today's check.
"Alif don't go anywhere, son. Mommy wants to take HP inside, want a nelfon bude."
"Yes mother, Alif just play here anyway."
Diana sat back down after taking her old HP, and was ready to call.
"Hallo brother, Assalamualaikum."
"(Moskalambi. Yes na?)"
Without warning Diana immediately told her check results today. With a sad tone at the end of the sentence.
"Ana really wanted to check with her husband."
"(Sabar ya na, soon the Bagas prosecution process will run. Everything actually depends on you, if today you want to meet Bagas, isn't he ready to pick you up?)"
"But sister, Diana was still doubtful. When will the legal process take place?"
"(Your word is next week)."
"Hopefully yes brother. Ana prayed that everything would end well."
"(Amin, where's Alif na?)"
"That's another play."
They continued to talk to the old, no matter what they had discussed. And the phone ends when the verse in the mosque is heard, signifying the time of the Maghrib.
Seriate..
Anyone want to double up? I'll give you double up and crazy up. But please, please, like her, let her spirit write 🙏🙏
