White Love Abu
OLD MAN'S MOUTH
Two weeks to the final exam. All third-graders looked stressed and filled with fear, anxiety and panic. The determining factor of passing or not that lies in the three important days.
Arsy is still flat with all the anxiety of his friends. Nothing matters except Teddy.
This afternoon Arsy was sitting in the backyard. Wulan no longer lives there. Her mother was sick so Wulan went back to her house.
Arsy sat in one of the backyard gazebos while feeding the goldfish that was in the fish pond. The heat feels cool with a breeze of a cool afternoon breeze.
"Baby art ... Is this the milk, son?" said Mama Tina who has brought warm hail milk strawberry flavor Arsy's favorite. Not only that, Mama Tina also brought Arsy's favorite cake.
Arsy stopped feeding the fish as Teddy often did when he was playing to his mother's house.
"Thank you Ma" replied Arsy quietly. She also finished the pregnant milk.
His stomach was already starting to look big and slightly bulged. Arsy only took two more weeks until the exam was over. At least all of her burden of concealing her pregnancy without her husband was over. Arsy can focus on her pregnancy and begin to get used to loving her two twin children without any role there Teddy.
"Enak? Cobain dong cake kleponnya. This is made by Mama," said Mama Tina slowly.
Arsy just stared at Teddy's favorite cake. He recalled the sweet memories as sweet as sugar java in the cake klepon. At that time they were still early married and still very indifferent. Arsy took the cake klepon without knowing if the contents in it were java sugar and can spray.
Cruts ...
The cake was still hot and the java sugar filling was certainly still hotter and right about Teddy's face. But, her husband was not angry at all and instead smiled and took the java sugar attached to his face and pinned also in the beautiful Arsy waaha.
Joking but Arsy feels really lost Teddy now.
"Why daydream? How are you just looking at it? Not really worth it?" ask Mama Tina slowly.
"Doyan Ma" replied Arsy slowly. He took the cake and held his chest tight. Teddy's face was reflected all the time. To the extent that Arsy never konsen during learning activities at school. He was paranoid and stared at the classroom door, if only, he suddenly made a surprise for him.
Arsy slowly bit the clone and chewed it. The savory and salty taste of coconut, mixed together with the sweet taste of cake and sugar Java in it. Think the same as his wedding trip.
Initially refused, then forced to undergo and it turned out to be different. Teddy does have a myriad of ideas so that Arsy can smile. His cold attitude, his feet were lost with his sweet attitude, his patience like Javanese sugar. And when there was none, he lost it and even missed it.
"The day after leaving?" ask Mama Tina quietly to ARsy.
"So Ma. Just two days. Arsy misses Papah and Mother Bella," he replied slowly.
Since her marriage, Arsy has met her parents again. They meet only through online communication, both chat, phone and video call.
"Greetings to Mother and Father. Remember not to be sad anymore. There are us here who always love you and your baby" said Mama Tina advising Arsy.
"Yes Ma, thank you Ma" replied Arsy slowly.
"Yes dear," replied Mama Tina quietly and embraced Arsy affectionately.
Arsy wants to visit his parents in London. Not only that, he also wants to ask for the blessing of the final exam and see the campus that will be entered later.
MAma Tina and Papah Baron have given permission, if indeed Arsy wants to continue his studies in London and live with his parents. Maybe Tina's mother who will give up a month after visiting Arsy there and will stay there if Arsy has given birth to accompany her two twin grandchildren.
"You need to be healthy and stay healthy. Take care of your health not to get sick, and tired," said Mama Tina reminded.
"Sure Ma. Arsy will always remember all of your messages, "he replied slowly.
The two looked at each other and smiled at each other. How lucky Arsy is to have in-laws as good and understanding as Mama Tina.
