Dream Womb

Dream Womb
Bonchap 1


Without feeling the time passes so quickly. Is it because I am enjoying my life so much now? From the deep love that was awakened between me and Haris, we almost never had a fight. Our lives were going very quietly without any meaningful wave ripples. Perfect, you might say so. Perfect version of me who has been locked in the hell of the world for so long.


I lived with Haris for five years. This happiness is increasingly fulfilled by God entrust us with the things I crave most in this world. A fetus grew in my womb a few months after the wedding took place, complete already my nature as a woman. Being a wife and a mother.


We are happy not overcast, with the presence of a tiny baby that makes the whole house anxious and fall in love. Every day I give countless thanks for the gifts I have received. All the pain in the past seemed to be unfiltered, distracted by the presence of solace in our family.


My baby's a boy, his name is Erick, handsome like his Papa. Now he has grown up and is ready to socialize in the Kindergarten. Erick's straight hair was down from Haris, while his skin and pointy nose were mine. Erick is growing healthy and very active. Sometimes I get overwhelmed with all his behavior.


"Mama, when is Eik school? Mama said in a moment, but how long wait, Eik tired!"


That cute and plump face was so adorable it made me look at her gleeful cheeks. She has not eloquently uttered R even though Haris has always taught her.


"Later Monday, baby. Before school we have to buy Erick's school supplies first. There are bags, shoes, hats, books, anyway later Erick if the school must be strong bring a lot of books." I rubbed his head. The agile boy immediately ran around in the living room with his cars.


"Yes, Mama. Eik likes to drink milk, so his bones must be strong. Is that Nek?" The passing mother nodded her head.


"Yes, Erick's good at drinking milk, so strong also hold grandma later."


"Grandma don't carry, heavy!"


The answer made us laugh together. Erick has always been the center of attention in this house.


Today we decided to buy Erick equipment in kindergarten later. We went to a mall in the middle of town. After selecting some items, I immediately headed to the cashier. I accidentally ran into someone I never imagined. A little hesitating, I looked at his face. Oh my God, my view is right!


Mas Andre, I met him while at the cashier. The man looked thinner than the last I saw in court. It was a tired look on his face that made him look older than his age. Her hair was disheveled, her clothes were also untidy. It's not like the Mas Andre I used to know, who always paid attention to looks, fragrant and neat.


We were silent for a moment just looking at each other without saying anything, until a shrill voice diverted us.


"Totally for a long time, pay it! Didn't you just stay here? So men are not very useful, told to pay for old groceries! Anything must be slow!"


The voice of a person who is no stranger to me. Diana, the woman who is now a life partner Mas Andre seemed to walk with heavy steps while dragging a girl.


"You know, I'm tired of watching wild Calista run around. You're not coming, even here long ago. If the queue is long, move dong to another cashier! Don't stay here. If you have a brain to think, not just to play the game continue!"


Diana scolded Mas Andre with harsh words and pointed at the man's face. Her face lowered, Diana continued to make a loud voice until she realized my whereabouts. Diana was nervous to see me.


"Don't be shy to hear," Mas Andre whispered in my ear.


Diana looked at me, looking from toe to toe, like she wanted to scan my life right now. I don't know what's on his mind. Maybe he still feels victorious because he can take revenge, but for me it's all over.


Whatever was on his mind was none of my business anymore. I am too busy grateful for big things, so I do not have time to think about small and trivial things like other people's prejudices against my life.


"Mama!"


Erick's voice called me. It was fortunate that Haris arrived on time with my son in his carry. Haris was shocked, so were Diana and Mas Andre.


Haris took my hand and asked, "Dear, haven't been paid yet?"


I'm nodding. "This is just finished."


"Yes, let's eat! Erick's hungry said he."


"Yes, Mama, Eik wants to eat chicken." Erick stroked his stomach for hunger.


"Come, let's go get some chicken but eat a lot, yeah." I held Haris' hand towards the food court area.


Haris immediately took me away from there. When I passed them, I saw the faces of Princess Diana and Mas Andre, I was stuck.


Good Lord!


I was really shocked and in disbelief as I looked at the innocent child's face that looked like a special needs child. As I recall, their face shape was almost similar, Is it possible that Calista was one of them?


Ah, no! I shook my head and tried to shake off those wild thoughts. It could have been just a coincidence. Can't be 'was the handsome Mas Andre and the beautiful Diana given the gift of a 'special' child'?


Tbc.


Have you ever felt the karma that Diana and Andre got? Maybe 1 more chapter to be sure. 🤗
