Nindi my dear

That afternoon the sun was shining, Alex and his family were happy. The birth of her third child was fairly smooth and normal. By driving four wheels, Alex lifted his belongings and put them in the car.

“Alex, have all the items you picked up Nak?” In a weak voice, Madam Aminah, who was also Alex's father-in-law, asked him. Alex just raised both eyebrows, giving a gesture that was not understood by Bu Aminah.

“Already Mom! Now we go home yes dear.” Alex said while embracing and helping his wife get into the car. For a moment Alex ignored his father-in-law, but Bu Aminah understood the attitude of his daughter-in-law.

The car went down a long highway from Jakarta to Bandung. Alex plans to take his Wife and Children with his father-in-law to his hometown.

“Honey Where are we going?” Ask Alex's wife Nindi. Nindi asked with an unstable breath. Then Bu Aminah gave a bottle of mineral water to be drunk by Nindi. No need to think long, Nindi immediately gulped down the drinking water until half a bottle was left.

“We'll pick up the kids first baby. After that we went to Bandung to the house of my late parents. We leave Jakarta, there is a heritage rice field from my Father that I can work on later.”

Nindi and Aminah's mother could only be silent at the words of Alex. It could be anything else, since Nindi gave birth to her first child, Alex is the backbone and finances all members of her family. Nindi's husband started to forbid Nindi to work again.

Alex told his wife to focus on taking care of the kids at home. Nindi also obeyed her husband because of Bu Aminah who began to get sickly. Inevitably, Nindi has to take care of her children and her mother. Because otherwise, no one would be able to help her to take care of her children. Therefore Nindi decided to obey and not work, not because he was unable to work but his condition that must be lived.

Out of the motorway, the car entered a narrow alley. They're heading to her son's second school. The first child still sits in the third grade of Elementary School (SD). The second one is in first grade SD. All the children from Nindi and Alex's marriage are men. A little disappointing Alex seems, but Alex never showed such disappointment. He prefers to harbor that feeling.

“Ayahhhh...” Shout Andra and Indra together. After opening the front door of the car, the two entered and sat in one seat. Both of them look happy to see their new sister.

“Sstttt. Dedek again sleeping.” Said Nindi while putting her index finger in front of her lips and then blinked her eyes. Andra and Indra just smiled happily and began to greet Father and Grandma.

“Dad was in Andra school got a hundred tablets Yah.”Said Andra who immediately took out her paper. “Let's go baby, wait till. Dad is bringing a car now.” Father said without looking at Andra in the slightest.

“This try Grandma see.” Bu Aminah issued an instinct to her mother to respond to Andra. So that Andra does not feel neglected. “Great granddaughter Grandma. Maintained yes Son, if you can rank one later Granny love gift.” Said Grandma while giving her two thumbs.

“Truly Nek? Asyikkkk...” Andra started to be excited. Indra also joined the dance following his brother.

“Sstttt... remember dear dedek her again sleep.” Nindi again reminded her two children not to be noisy. Then the atmosphere in the car became quiet.

The journey continued, the hot sun that afternoon had not faded. Back on the highway Alex is wearing his seatbelt. Drove 100km/h, not satisfied, Alex increased his speed to 140km/h.

Then “Brakkk brummm dangggg greekkkk...” All went black like midnight without stars and moon.
