Without feeling it, a month had already passed. Today, Renata was sitting on the back garden bench with Karina, the woman unceasingly rubbing and stroking her little sister's distended stomach.
Every now and then she cheers in joy as her baby kicks, her sensation is so pleasant, it can feel a baby kick even if not from her own stomach, but something like this alone can make her heart calm.
"When will baby twins be born?" Ask Karina.
"According to the doctor's estimate in less than a week, mbak. It could be tomorrow, or the day after." Renata replied with a smile looking at the older brother.
"I can't wait to see them, I want to play with my niece, they must be handsome and beautiful like you and Reza." Babe Karina.
"Yes, I can't wait to see them in person. Wanting to see the babies who have been living in my womb for nine months, they've been kicking around in here so often that I pee in my pants." Renata chuckles, so does Karina.
"Do you have a name for both of them?"
"That's mas Reza who'll give her, I believe she must have had a beautiful name for our baby." Renata replied, although often nyeleneh but she believes in the husband, at least her husband will not be able to give a famous brand name to his two children.
Wait, brand name? Aahh yes, so remember the novel next door. Brian threw a cracker, if you have read Mr Zen's Bed Partner must know Brian names his children using what brand names.
"Well, I just hope you and your two kids are okay." Karina said softly, making Renata smile. He grabbed both of his Sister-in-law's shoulders, as much as he could display his best smile, though inwardly he also felt fear. Whether he could still see the world again or not after that tense day.
"If I get sick, please take care of my children. I believe the same, mbak,"
"You can't talk that way, Re. You have to be all right, brother believes you will be all right." Said Karina, she could do that if something happened that she did not want to her sister.
"Rere also wants that, want to gather with you again after that day, but we do not know what kind of destiny is waiting ahead there. Therefore, if suppose I am sick, please keep my child for a while."
"Ohh yes, Mas Eza will definitely be fragile, strengthen him as well huh. Don't let him feel alone, I can't bear to see him cry." Both eyes of Renata teary, facing this bitter reality always makes his heart in a daze of anxiety.
"Definitely, I will definitely accompany him, strengthen him and convince him that you will be fine and can gather together like now."
"Thank you, I'm calm." Renata smiled sweetly at her sister-in-law, but the smile was gone when she saw Reza standing in front of her, with her office suit, even her briefcase was still on hand.
The man stood stiff, making Renata shake herself, especially her husband did not know anything about what she was feeling right now.
"M-as, are you home?" Not his reply, Reza instead went from his presence and went into the house, precisely to the room. Renata panicked, worried that the man would misunderstand, and soon followed the husband's steps, although slowly because he had difficulty walking with a large belly.
Renata opened the door, she saw her husband was opening his suit and tie, her gaze sharpened when she saw the wife enter.
"Mas, let me help you here."
"Don't do it, I can do it myself, baby." Reza replied, although still calling dear, but still his flat tone made Renata feel guilty, but he did not know where the fault was in which part.
"Mas, what's wrong with you?" Renata asked, she saw her husband sigh.
"Mas really don't like what you say same mbak Karin, anyway after giving birth you go where, until nitipin I'm the same kids?"
"That's yeah? You're horrified of that?"
"I'm afraid, baby, nothing will happen to you other than the pain of contractions, believe me."
"Yes, I'm sorry about you. I was just afraid of facing that day" Renata complained, the woman twisting the ends of her clothes.
"Don't be afraid, I'm by your side, every time."
"Thank you."
"Everything dear." Reza answered, he grabbed his wife into his arms. He was eager to hug tightly until their bodies were attached to each other, but unfortunately could not be done because of his wife's distressed stomach.
"From tomorrow on leave from the office, I want to focus on taking care of you."
"What kind of office work is Mas?" Ask Renata.
"There's a Marko with a handle Dimas, you don't have to worry about my work, anyways I can work from home." Answer Reza. Dimas is officially his secretary, while Marko remains his trust assistant.
However, for some reason since the CEO's position changed to him, the man's behavior changed. There is no Marko who is firm, cruel and cold, Marko who now even somplak and annoying.
"Ohh, Dimas has already started working?"
"Here dong baby, he's been working 3 weeks ago." Reza answered while stroking his wife's stomach.
"Well, is it good work?"
"Good, even he was quick to respond to work."
"Judah, suddenly I want a young mango, Mas." Renata said, for some reason he drooled to himself as he imagined the fruit.
"Mom usually craves it in the first trimester right? How do you crave it when you want to be born anyway?" Ask Reza.
"Well, how do I know Mas, okay?"
"May if there is, there is no problem dear. Nyari nyari where, already want this malem."
"Click, I haven't had a cravings all this time." Persuade Renata, it is true during pregnancy she has never craved until whining like this.
"Ohh well my dear wife, your Mas will be looking for her now." Reza said, he kissed his wife's forehead with affection. He rubbed his wife's hair and ruffled it.
"Aaa Mas don't mess with my hair dong, it's messy again." Ketus Renata while tidying her hair back with her hands.
"Yaudah, wait a minute, I'll get the fruit first."
"Ready Masku, I want to make the seasoning."
"No need, let Mas tell mbak Karin to make his spices, you are just here. Beware if stubborn, inget here a lot of CCTV."
"Isshh yeah-yes, what do I do?"
"Watch television, baby, go first." Renata nodded, and Reza went outside. When she crosses paths with Karina and her Mommy, she asks to make a sambel rujak on the two, while she will look for her fruit first.
Both are astonished, celebrate the nights? It's not too dark, but it can be called night, right?
"Aihh, that beautiful pregnant woman is just there." Karina said while chuckling.
"Udah, let's make some spice."
"Relax, your sister must have gotten the fruit, she's definitely not going back home before she gets the fruit."
"Truely so, jeez. Karin who fried his beans yes, Mommy who ngulek." The two went to the kitchen and carried out their respective duties.
As for Reza, he dizzy looking into every house that there is a mango tree, but has been around he has not also got the fruit. Suddenly, not a single tree bore fruit.
"Hat habit, if again in search there must be no. Well if not in search of certainly much." Reza muttered, he returned to ride his motorcycle, although the night wind was cold but it did not dampen his intention to look for mangoes for his wife.
At the end of the alley, Reza saw a mango tree that bore fruit, although it was night still the fruit was seen hanging between the leaves.
The man who was about to become a father smiled, but when he stopped the speed of his motorbike, the smile suddenly collapsed when he realized that this was an empty house, aka uninhabited.
Suddenly his hair was goosebumps, if it were not for his wife, he would have run away from the place. Besides being empty, this house is also famous for its many ghosts
Many times Reza gulped his saliva violently, he gathered his courage and got off the bike. He looked up, where the mango was hanging.
Huff..
Reza began to climb the mango tree, taking some mangoes, if enough to rush him down. But while below, he saw a white shadow approaching towards him. Obviously it made Reza run ketar ketir away from the house.
But damn, so afraid Reza even did not realize that in front of her there was got, of course it made her fall into the got, making her dirty body exposed to water got.
"Fuck shit, god stinks." Complaining Reza, he grimaced when he realized the smell was really unpleasant.
"Where do I bring a bike with me when I'm gini." Reza said, he felt his head, it turned out that mud got to his head. Aahh shit, he should soak in milk later.
He was forced to ride his motorcycle with a dirty state and smelled of water got. Along the way, he passed by other riders, they seemed to hold back a laugh when they saw his bum-like appearance.
"Damn it, because my ghosts are like this." Rutuk Reza, he's speeding up his bike. He wanted to get home and clean his body immediately.
In short, Reza had already arrived home. The security guard held a laugh when he saw the appearance of his young master, had just left clean and tidy, was it now? The man was like he had just been hit by a whirlwind.
"If I laugh, I'll fire you." Threatening Reza, he leaves with his motorbike, leaving an unpleasant scent that goes into the nose of the house guard. They coughed because of the scent of not wearing it.
Reza parked his motorcycle in the garage, he got off his vehicle slowly.
"Darling, I came home with the fruit." Her scream outside the house, with her current state, can be sure she will not be able to go inside.
Karina and Mariska came out, followed by Renata who walked slowly. The three women gawked at Reza's condition, exactly the child picked up with mud that littered his body from head to toe.
"gtpffttt.. Haha.." All three of his compact laughs at the sight of Reza's state. Renata laughed softly as she felt a slight pain in her stomach if she laughed out loud.
"Where are you from? The feeling was saying to want to nyari mango fruit, but kok back so gembel." Ejek Karina with a satisfied laugh.
"Emang nyari fruit, but I'm chasing the devil. I'm running away, I know there's got."
"Continue?" Ask Karin again.
"Yes there is no channel, I jatoh to got until kek gini. Satisfied Lo?" Sinis Reza, while Renata looked at her husband with a sweet smile.
"Thank you, husband." Renata approached and grabbed her husband's hand, she did not care about the pungent smell of the body of her husband.
"Darling, I stink."
"Whoa, let me take a bath." Take Renata.
"Bak please?" Renata Pinta.
"Who is my sister, here the fruit let me peel continuously in pieces. Let you finish taking a big baby shower, the rujak is done. Okay?"
"Okay, thank you. Sorry Rere ngerepotin."
"Gapa is beautiful, mbak also want his spirit. Coincidentally behind there is a water guava, all of us welcome guava as well."
"Riap mbak, yaudah Rere bathein husband Rere first. Must be scrubbed this bath soap mah let it glow again." Said Renata while chuckling.
Reza said that when the wife pulled him into the house, they went into the room and Renata began to bathe the husband. Apply liquid soap on her husband's body, while her clothes she soaks with liquid detergent, so that more quickly her dirt fades.
"I'm sorry to have to take care of you, Mom. Sampe kecebur got gini."
"Father my dear."
"Where can the story be pursued by ghosts, Mas?" Renata asked, dripping a few drops of shampoo in her hand, then rubbing it in her husband's hair.
"So Mas took his fruit in the empty house at the end of the alley you know, when I climbed the tree there was no demon Yang, ehh pas already below even look. Reflex dong I run scared, forgetfulness if in front of it there got yaudahlah tingle."
"I want to laugh, but I'm dealing with my husband." Renata said with a small smile.
"So my dear, anything that can make you laugh, I'm sincere."
"Burne my husband."
"Bucin with his own wife is my dear gapapa." Said Reza while menguegel cheeks of the wife who is increasingly padded.
"Jude, the shower's over. Your body smells again, doesn't smell like a gutter. Come on out." Take Renata, her husband nodded and grabbed the bathrobe and put it on.
Renata was waiting outside, she was waiting for her husband to sit on the side of the bed, the woman was drying her husband's hair with a small towel. Although there is a hairdryer, but drying the hair of loved ones with a towel feels more pleasant.
"Done Mas, I came out first yes want to celebrate first with Mommy, mbak Karin."
"Dear, don't eat too many mangoes. If guava gapapa, not this cool."
"Who my husband is, dear." Renata briefly peeked at her husband's right cheek, then went out.
"My wife's getting more adorable."
