Just doing a medical check up Aksara and Arsyilla felt so happy. The young couple was seen returning to their apartment unit in relief. Both are in an equally healthy state and ready to have a baby. Age, mental, and financial are both ready.
“So it's ready to be a parent?” ask Aksara now to his wife.
“Everybody is not ready to be ready anyway Kak .. there is no way we both like this continue. There are times when we will really expect a baby who will further enliven the household life of both of us,” said Arsyilla.
Aksara also responded by giving a nod, “True Honey .. I used to ask you to delay, not because I wanted to enjoy the moment as a newlywed. It's just that I used to be a student and thesis. Now, I can fully focus on you and our future baby later. I've also wanted to become a Dad,” reply Aksara now.
“Iya Kak .. It's okay. Every married couple has their own considerations. Some after marriage immediately have children, some delay it. Everything is reasonable and in accordance with the planning of each couple,” reply Arsyilla.
Even if the child is a gift from the Creator, there are only a few people who make their own plans and considerations. Same is the case with Aksara who was still considering himself still a student and wanted to work on the thesis. So Aksara did ask Arsyilla to delay first. Now that he finished with his education, Aksara also began to seriously have a baby with Arsyilla.
“Past Mama and Papa also postponed kok Kak,” said Arsyilla this time.
“Serious Honey, because what Mama and Papa even delay?” ask Aksara this time.
“The story is Mama tuh, Mama got a scholarship S2 in Manchester. Keep Papa Nyusulin Mama there. They think living abroad, in an apartment that is only one plot, there is no family at all would be difficult to have children. Moreover, Mama and Papa are still very lay, so for two years Mama and Papa delayed having children. After college Mama finished and returned to Jakarta, new Mama pregnant,” Arsyilla story to her husband.
Aksara listened to the story of Arsyilla wholeheartedly. He also did not think if Mama and her father-in-law delayed to have a baby first.
“If Mama and Papa do not delay having children, you may be almost the same age as me and even maybe we did not meet, Honey,” Aksara reply this time.
“Yes do not know also Kak .. soul mate, death, and sustenance of God who governs. I didn't think I could marry you at all. Foreign man who turned out to be the figure of Big Brother for me since childhood,” I am Arsyilla this time.
Slowly Aksara smiled at his wife's words. “True Sweetheart .. everything is already in God's settings. It's just that there's still human effort, right? So, yes all this happened because God has arranged it,” reply Aksara.
“Iya .. so now we are serious for the pregnant program huh Kak? Take care of your health, because you have to be healthy too,” said Arsyilla who sounded like teasing her husband.
“I'm always healthy, Honey .. You don't know that I always eat healthy and exercise. Definitely guaranteed quality,” sahut Aksara this time.
Arsyilla actually chuckled amusedly with the answer from her husband. The answer impressed him, but always managed to make him laugh. The attitude and the playfulness of the characters like this that makes him feel at home with Aksara by living in this apartment unit.
“I'm actually afraid of being a parent anyway Kak. Not just giving birth and raising children. However, it must be an exemplary figure for the child who is difficult,” said Arsyilla this time.
“No parent is perfect, Honey .. Each parent has their own guidelines. It's just that we can both learn and be good role models for our children. I'm sure, you'll be a good Mom,” explained Aksara.
Arsyilla's heart was so warmed when Aksara said that she would be a good mother. A speech and prayer of course, because Arsyilla herself also love to be a good mother for her children later.
“Iya Kak .. we learn together. You will also be a good Father to our children,” Arsyilla replied.
Slowly Aksara nodded her head, “Iya Honey .. hopefully soon there will be the sound of baby crying that perfect our household well... there is Syilla or Junior Aksara,” Reply Aksara.
Arsyilla smiled imagining how funny their children would be. Children who will inherit all things about themselves and the Scriptures.
“You want to have a boy or a girl, sister?” ask Arsyilla this time.
Again hearing the words of Aksara, Arsyilla just laughed not thinking it turns out her husband still remembers her when she was a child. That was so long ago.
“Ah, you are this .. do you remember me when I was a kid?” ask Arsyilla.
“Iya .. inget dong. You're as pretty and sweet as I thought you were, I might forget. In the past, I have prayed to God. When Mother was pregnant Rangga, in silence I prayed to God that the baby conceived by Mother was a boy, so the sister girl for me remains only you,” Aksara story now to his wife.
“Tuh, naughty right .. when if you are a mate, how do we still meet Kok Kak. Besides having a sister is okay,” reply Arsyilla.
“Neither Honey, to me the sister I love the most is just you. Arsyillanya Aksara. Nothing else,” reply Aksara with confidence.
“God hears your prayer, and your brother is a boy Kak ... But you love him right?” ask Arsyilla.
The characters seemed to be silent and thinking of something. Until the end, the man nodded his head faintly, “Yes, love him. Could have a play. It's just that the age difference is almost 8 years, so Rangga even recokin me,” reply Aksara now.
Because, the biological brotherhood is not only about loving each other, but there are also conflicts and various stories that accompany it. Just like Aksara which for a while actually considers Rangga to be a recookie.
“Sabar ... tomorrow if you want to be a more patient father. The father of the bisma looks very patient. May you be patient as Father Bhishma,” Arsyilla's hope this time for her husband.
Aksara laughed to hear his wife who considered his father was a patient figure. “Iya anyway .. Bhishma's father was very patient. Even when Rangga made a mistake in High School, Bhishma's father could accept and deal with it with a cool head,” explained Aksara this time.
The stories of both parents seem to motivate them to be good parents for their children later. Take the good and apply it, and also throw away the bad things.
“You too will be a patient and loving man. The problems of our children may later be different from those of you or the Rangga of old. However, we can prepare to manage the problem and find a way out,” reply Arsyilla.
“Iya is right, Honey .. it's okay. The important thing is that we are ready from now on. You and I are ready to have a baby. Stay effort and pray, Honey.” sahut Aksara.
“Iya Kak .. hopefully soon,” reply Arsyilla.
Aksara then looked at his wife's face with a different look in her eyes, her hands moving and slipping a strand of Arsyilla's hair behind her ear.
“You're tired not tonight, Honey?” ask Aksara suddenly.
“Hmm, why Brother?” ask Arsyilla.
“Usaha now yuk .. the sooner the better. Can enter you without friction with plastic,” said Aksara with frontal.
Reflex, Arsyilla hit her husband's arm. “Isshss, talk it loh .. Horror really,” reply Arsyilla.
“Yuk, Honey .. God willing effort will not betray results. We make maximum effort, surely there will be seeds of our love that bloom in your womb,” reply Aksara.
The man looked like his brain was like an incandescent light bulb that could easily figure out how to fuse with his wife. While Arsyilla can only stare horror at her husband.
