AL-THAR
#57. Line Two

"Where's mira?" ask Mama to Shelia who is currently putting an empty bowl of chicken porridge, into the sink.

"Tomorrow."

"Huh? Mabok?" the mother who was taking drinks in the refrigerator turned her head.

"Yes, he seems to catch a cold. The man gets angry when he sees me. I said I was eating bang-to, it stinks, whatever ..."

Mama seemed to think for a moment. "He's sick?"

"Nausea, vomiting, uek-uek, like I'm craving that."

"Don't he crave?" guess my mom with wide eyes.

"No, Ma. Mira said, if everyone who gets in the wind is considered pregnant then herbal medicine rejects the wind will not do."

"Trus do you believe?"

Shelia nodded.

"Your intelligence is on leave, Shel, during pregnancy?" the mama's innuendo made Shelia fall silent to digest. Mom went straight to Mira's room.

"So I'm being cycled?" Shelia asked herself.

.

.

"Byrr!" mama called with a knock on the bathroom door, in Mira's room. Because the outer door of his room was indeed opened a little because of the actions of Shelia who did not close it properly. "You still taking a shower?"

"Yes, Ma!" sahut Mira from within. At this time he is indeed soaking with warm water.which makes it feel like in heaven.

"Don't wait! You haven't had breakfast."

"Later on, Ma."

"Yes, my mom is waiting."

"Why should we wait?"

"Mama wants to talk. The bath!"

"Yes ..."

So Mama went back downstairs and waited for Mira at the dinner table. He saw that his eldest pitri was preparing to go to work.

"Bryan pick you up?"

"No. He's been to Bali from yesterday afternoon."

"Aren't you married now, Shel?" mama never gave up on persuading her daughter to get married. In his mind, Bryan still had a desire to take responsibility. Because the name of that time can make a person's heart change.

Regarding the provisions later after the child is born then they must be remarried, then it is still a matter later. At least, Bryan already has a legal status as a husband when his daughter later gave birth.

"Later, Ma. Nanggung gave birth," Shelia replied patiently. Although too often the mother persuaded him, but he would not say hurtful things to the woman who had given birth to him.

"Yes married again, according to religious regulations. What matters now is saving the family's honor, including your pride as well."

Shelia was silent for a moment. The tone of the mother's voice sounded bitter. If according to his ego and thoughts, indeed he does not care about the words of others, the opinions of others, and the judge of others in his life. That thought he got after lingering in the land of people. But nevertheless, the, if he returns to reflect on how the side of his parents –more this is the only parent he has– then there will be a sense of pain can not bear if it hurts the woman who has given birth to it. Hasn't his own sin been done a lot and clearly hurt my mother? Then why now he must add to his actions that hurt the mother.

Shelia sighed softly. He turned his head and looked softly full of guilt at mama. "Later I thought, Ma. Soon I give you an answer to mama."

Mama nodded slowly. In his heart also did not want to force more than this. Only, he also must maintain the family honor as a single parent for his children.

...💜💖💜...

It just slipped out of Mira's hand. She was shocked to find that line two was finally present before her eyes.

"Gue ..." his voice disappeared. His knees were so relaxed that he was now sitting on the bathroom floor with his face staring.

ha-pregnant?

"You can ..."

How Mira was not shocked, since last month he used contraceptive injection KB. Then why is he now ...?

It just doesn't make sense in Mira's mind. That's why he was shocked, and almost in disbelief.

After passing the minutes in great shock, Mira now felt her heart warm up instantly. Given that there are small creatures that now inhabit his womb, then his mind wanders until later his son and daughter Sheli will be involved gelud representing both mothers.

He immediately shook his head. Even though he had just obtained the two lines, his imaginary period had already ventured far ahead.

Finally, still limp, he got up from the bathroom floor. His mind was now only one; how could he give this glad tidings to Athar?

Her lip reflexes revealed a sweet smile. He knows for sure, although between Dirinua and Athar have both agreed the dalsm postponed having a baby, but if God has been willing to lower his trust, they can what but be grateful right?!

"Woah, it's great that your papa's seed, son, even though it's been intercepted by a KB injection, you've managed to grow it too. Great ... great!" she said, stroking her stomach in front of the mirror after she came out of the bathroom.

"Mira!" my mother's voice called and made her look. The mother stepped into her room. "Where's the outcome?" ask mom impatiently.

Earlier, when Mira was preoccupied with soaking in warm water and took quite a long time, finally mama Pertiwi came to him because of worry. Coincidentally at that time the nausea he experienced was relapsing violently. So soon mama took a test pack that was in Shelia's room –because Shelia once said she had a lot of the rest of the incident at that time– to give to Mira. At first Mira refused and felt that he was just catching a cold, with the belief that he was indeed injecting KB to delay momongan. Then after mama urged him, finally he got a new reality.

Mira grinned crisply. "Hehe, mama will have a second grandson–"

"WA!" mama immediately embraced Mira happily. "Alhamdulillah. Thank goodness you got pregnant too" said the mother happily, who could not be hidden.

Mira felt somewhat how to find that the mother turned out to be this happy with her pregnancy. Far inversely proportional to the incident when Shelia first reported about her pregnancy. Yes indeed, clearly different conditions between him and his brother. It is only natural that her mother behaved this way. It's just that Mira doesn't want Shelia to realize this either. She would never be willing to see her brother grieve again. Quite a bloody tragedy a few months ago happened just once. Never again.

"What about dong, Ma?"

"Where's what?"

"Yes how? I pregnant. How's trus?"

Mama frowned. "Why do you mean?"

"I have to what? How's gotta?"

"What does it have to be?" my mom asked back. "You're making mama dizzy."

Mira scratches her temple. He was also at a loss as to how it revealed the mixed feeling that suddenly struck his heart. "Do I have to sleep or what?" tanyanya doubt.

"You're not sick, Mir, but you're pregnant. So why sleep early?"

"Yes, anyway,"

"Let's go to the doctor now!" broken mom.

"Why, Ma?" Mira asked confusedly. Why go to the doctor, right?! "And I'm not sick. Like my mom just said; I'm pregnant, not sick."

Mama pinched the squash next to Mira's cheek. "We'll see a doctor to make sure you're pregnant,"

"It was a test pack."

"To know also your fetus is how many weeks old."

"Oh that ..."

"Well, ayuk–" Mama pulls Mira's hand, but Mira holds her back. "What else?"

"In two hours I have an important presentation on campus, Ma. It's too late to go to the doctor first."

Mama sighed. "Yes, just go back to college" he broke up.

...❤❤...

"Sir Athar–" Barra admonished his boss carefully.

When Athar turned his head, he said, "I'm not at the meeting, Bar. You're deputizing me."

"But, sir, said Mr. Dirga earlier–"

"You must listen to me, not Dirga."

Barra rewinded her steps respectfully. He was quite understanding of the mood of his boss who was not good. Instead of getting angry later, he had better face Dirga, his other boss, who was calmer and friendlier.

"Good, Sir. Excuse me first."

After Barra's exit from before him, Athar was now silent staring into the distance through a large window on the side of the room he was in. His mind is in a rage. He has to decide something important in his life. But before deciding, he must think about it carefully, or everything will end unlike his expectations.

Again he rubbed his face violently. His heart was now holding onto the anger he had to endure so as not to appear to the surface.
