At the hospital, Rania was crying looking at her baby who was lying on the hospital bed. The woman felt sad to see her son who was affected by high fever. After being treated by a doctor, Delani no longer cried. The baby fell asleep even though his breathing condition seemed congested.
"Fast to heal, unfortunately, mama," said Rania while holding her daughter's tiny fingers.
Alvaro came to his wife. He embraces his wife's shoulders, calming Rania so as not to be too thoughtful because it has been handled by a doctor directly. Actually Alvaro is also worried, but he does not want Rania too much burden of mind and eventually exposed to baby blues syndrome (a sad feeling experienced by many women in the early days after).
"Delani's been treated by a doctor, Ma. Tomorrow Delani will be healed. Mama do not be sad, later Delani also do not have the spirit to heal if mama continues to cry," said Alvaro.
Rania nodded, she immediately wiped her tear after being reprimanded by her husband.
"Pa, try calling your mother-in-law first. I want to talk," said Rania.
Alvaro pulled out his phone. When the call was connected, he handed the flat object to Rania.
"Hello, Son."
"Hello, Ma. Is Dilan asleep?" rania asked in a voice that was still a little hoarse.
"Yes, Dilan just went to bed. Not long ago you two left, suddenly Dilan joined in crying. But now the handsome granddaughter of mama is fast asleep."
"Oh yeah, what about Delani? Is she okay?" ask Arumi from across the phone.
"Delani is currently asleep, Ma. She had a high fever and had been treated by a doctor" Rania explained.
"Geez, what a pity my beautiful grandson has to get a fever. May Delani get well soon. Rania, you don't mind much, son. You have to stay calm under any circumstances" Arumi advised her daughter-in-law.
"Yes, Ma. Forgive Rania for bothering you, have to wake up mama in the middle of the night and ask to take care of Dilan" said Rania who felt guilty.
"It's okay, honey. If not with my mom, then with whom else would you ask for help. Your mother is far away, if you ask her to look after Dilan. Mama will stay here until Delani is completely recovered" Arumi said.
"Thank you again, Ma."
"Yes, equally. There's no need to be confused like that. Mama is very happy you left Dilan to Mama," said Arumi.
"Yes, son."
Phone connection disconnected. Arumi returns Alvaro's phone to its owner. The woman forgot to bring her phone. All he had in mind were Delani, Delani, and Delani.
Elsewhere, Arumi put her phone back on the nightstand. He smiled as he looked at Dilan who was already asleep.
"My granddaughter, you remind me of Alvaro and Alvira when I was a kid. When Alvaro gets a fever, Alvira must also be fussy. And vice versa" muttered Arumi who was still reviewing her smile.
He slightly justified the position of the pillow Dilan, so that the baby is more comfortable sleeping position. Shortly after, Arumi yawns. He felt completely sleepy and prepared to sleep near his grandson.

The next day, Bima was surprised to find her grandmother at home. He looked for the whereabouts of his parents, but the boy did not find them.
"Grandma, when did grandma come here? Where are mom and dad?" ask Bima who immediately asked her grandmother a question.
"Mom and Dad are still in the hospital. Last night Delani's sister had a high fever and was forced to be rushed to the hospital" explained Arumi.
"Is sister's pain severe?" ask Bima who looks sad.
Arumi directly rubbed Bima's curls gently. "No, Honey. Mama and papa will be home soon" said Arumi.
Bima lowered her head, she again shed her tears. "Why should a sick sister. It should be Bima alone," said the boy.
"Bima, you mustn't talk like that, dear." said Arumi to her granddaughter.
"It's Monday, Grandma. If Bima is sick, Bima can reason not to go to school because Bima is lazy to attend the ceremony," explained Bima.
Hearing this, of course, made Arumi shake her head. "His behavior is really a photocopian of Alvaro," Arumi's inner self.
