Halal Love of the Senior
First Night Again

Today Dita's puerperium is over, coincidentally also coinciding with the final control schedule with Lita's doctor. This morning, he visited Lita's doctor as well as checking Ale's growth.

"Thank God the seams are good, ma'am. Keep multiplying protein, vegetables and fruit yes," said doctor Lita after examining the stitches of the cesarean section.

"Mother Dita, no more puerperal blood?" ask doctor Lita.

"Yes, Doc. Last day yesterday afternoon out flek. This morning it was no longer out" said Dita.

"Alhamdulillah, meaning Mr. Rendra can already break this fast," seduced doctor Lita while seeing Rendra.

"Doctor Lita, it could be." Rendra replied with a big smile.

"Pak Rendra, Bu Dita, because the puerperium is over and has been able to re-connect husband and wife, I hope that Father and Mother can rethink to postpone the next pregnancy. Ibu Dita in one year has undergone 2 caesarean sections, if there is not yet a year from now Bu Dita is pregnant again, inevitably also have to caesarean again for the next pregnancy."

We gasped at Doctor Lita. "It's not normal to give birth even though you've had a caesarean, Doc?"

Doctor Lita nodded with her friendly smile. "It can, Mom. However, the next pregnancy pause is at least 2 years from the current one. That's even if it's eligible for a normal birth."

"Reflecting from yesterday's pregnancy, the surgery time was finally accelerated due to the condition of the former surgical suture that was thinning. If there is a pregnancy back in the near future, it is likely that it can happen again. Therefore, I hope that the next pregnancy can be postponed, at least until 1.5 years. If it can be two years, it's better" continued Dr. Lita.

"I've heard that giving exclusive asi can be a natural KB, Doc. Do we still need another contraceptive to delay pregnancy?" ask Dita.

"Oh that's the lactation amenorrhea method. That method can indeed delay but with some conditions, ma'am. First, you have not had menstruation again after pregnancy. Second, the baby's grandpa only suckles exclusively and does not get food and other drinks. The third, a baby less than six months old" explained Lita's doctor.

"Lactation amenorrhea method can indeed delay, but only for six months with some of the conditions I mentioned earlier. However, actually menstruation can come at any time even outside of our predictions. Because of this, this method is basically not completely effective in preventing pregnancy. It's just that, at least the body of Mother Dita does not produce surfing eggs and as much as usual for six months after giving birth."

Rendra and Dita nodded at Doctor Lita's explanation.

"There are many who succeed with this method, but not a few who fail. Especially if you are very fertile. And, this Miss Dita belongs to a very fertile category. Like the word, poked by Mr. Rendra alone can immediately get pregnant," as well as Lita's doctor so that the situation is not tense.

Rendra and Dita and the nurses who were there laughed, only Ale was silent in Rendra's arms.

"Here I do not force Ms. Dita or Mr. Rendra to use contraception to delay pregnancy. I only suggest because Bu Dita wants to give birth normally for the next pregnancy. Please Mr. Rendra and Bu Dita discuss for themselves further steps that will be taken next. Later as if you want to use contraception can go back here or the obstetrician or to the nearest midwife."

"Thank you for the explanation, Doc. Later we will consider the advice of doctor Lita," said Rendra.

"How is the little one developing?" ask doctor Lita.

"Thank God, good, Doc. You can protest if you don't pay attention," replied Dita while glancing at Ale who was asleep in a sling Rendra.

"Without his grandpa, not fussy."

"So it's been suckled so sleepy. If you cry, Doc" said Dita, laughing.

"Alhamdulillah, hopefully the development of Dedek Ale is getting better and healthier. So did Bu Dita and Mr. Rendra, "the sincere prayer of Doctor Lita.

"Aamiinu. Thank you, Doc."

After the control and consultation they go home. Dita holds Ale in the car, while Rendra drives.

"Honey, we're staying at a yuk hotel," asked Rendra.

"Why would you stay at a hotel?" Dita frowned at the invitation of her husband.

"First night is." Rendra raised her eyebrows.

"Having a child is still the first night" said Dita with an amused smile.

"It's the first night after I fast, honey. Want huh?" rayu Rendra winked one eye at his wife.

"The same Ale, right?" Dita looked at her husband.

"Two dong, dear."

"No want. Mas, have a heart to leave Ale alone at home." Tied her carrier to Ale.

"There's no mama with Adel, honey."

"No-no-no. We're home then. I don't want to leave Ale." Dita refused her husband's invitation.

Rendra took a long breath. "But, if at home we can't freely say anything, dear."

"I want to be at the hotel but it has to be the same Ale. If not the same Ale, I do not want to," said Dita.

"Darling, the same with me now." Rendra started sulking.

"Astaghfirullah's. Ale's only a month old, Mom. He still depends on me. Maybe I could leave him at home. Indeed there is a stock of breast milk at home, but also not enough for a day. Mas, who's more like Ale then."

"Maybe I'll be an ungodly wife for refusing a husband's invitation, but Ale is our responsibility, Mas. He still needs us, especially me. If Mas Rendra wants us to stay at the hotel, let's go, but with Ale. Ale's sleep schedule is getting regular, Mas. We can do it while Ale is sleeping. Please, don't make me an ungodly wife or an irresponsible mother, Mas." Dita started shedding tears.

She understood her husband's needs, but she couldn't ignore his very young son either. She was inexhaustible with the thought of her husband wanting them to just go alone and leave Ale at home.

Rendra was silent at Dita's words. His heart ached as his wife's voice began to rumble. And it hurts even more when I see a tear dripping from the corner of Dita's eye. He took a deep breath, then exhaled slowly. He had hurt his wife, the woman he kept so happy, but now he was the cause of Dita's tears and sadness.

Rendra pulled over the car after seeing the empty road situation. He took off his seatbelt and sat down, facing his wife.

"Dear, don't cry anymore. I'm sorry I was being selfish." Rendra wiped the tears on the corner of his wife's eyes and cheeks.

"We're not going to leave Ale, honey. We'll both keep the same Ale. Forgive your husband, yes." Rendra cupped his wife's face, staring into those still-glazed eyes.

"Mas, you should apologize to Ale as well" said Dita.

"Ale, forgive Baba. Ale, I'd like to forgive Baba." Rendra stroked Ale's covered head against the baby with the star image.

Ale who had just woken up, only winked.

"Darling, I've apologized to Ale. Baby, you're gonna forgive me, right?" Rendra kissed the back of his wife's hand while looking at Dita with a pleading gaze.

"Yes, Mum." Dita idles.

"Darling, will we stay at the hotel three?"

Dita nodded in response.

"Alhamdulillah." Rendra breathed a sigh of relief.

"Where do we want to stay, Mom."

"At the resort, yes the nuance of nature. I'll look for something that makes Ale comfortable, too."

"Yes. Thank you, Mommy."

Rendra. "Thank you for what?"

"Thank you for not making me an ungodly wife and irresponsible mother." Dita smiled at her husband.

Rendra smile. He kissed the back of his wife's hand. "I was wrong. I don't deserve a thank you. I'm the one who should be thanking you for being sober to me."

"Thank you, Babe." Rendra slightly raised his body and kissed his wife's forehead.

"Oeee, oeee." Ale who was between his parents cried loudly.

Dita and Rendra laughed, their romantic moments paused by Ale's cry. Rendra then distanced herself and sat back down.

"Your son protested against being abused, Mom."

We saw a digital clock on top of the car dashboard. It was time for Ale to drink milk.

"Mas, please get me a pillow in the back. Keep putting it behind my back." Dita was looking for a comfortable position to breastfeed Ale.

Rendra also swiftly carried out the orders of his wife. After that Dita started breastfeeding Ale. Of course Ale immediately stopped crying because he was engrossed in enjoying the source of his life.

Rendra looked at the two people she loved so much that were staring at each other and touching. There was a sense of happiness rising in his chest. In his heart he was thankful that God had given him his wife and children. Not everyone can get the pleasure he feels right now.

He drove back to the car, went home. Once at home, he immediately made a room reservation. It seemed like the universe was supportive, the room he wanted was still available one. He immediately booked for three days, having previously argued with Dita about how many days they would stay at the resort.

After he finished ordering the room, he prepared Ale's equipment and clothes which were not small. If he had prepared enough clothes and Dita in one suitcase, now he had to prepare all the prints Ale needs. For the sake of being with his wife and child, he was willing to do it. Meanwhile Dita put Ale to sleep after she was full of milk.

"Try checking again, dear." Rendra showed me the things they were going to bring. Told a look around at their luggage, especially what Ale needed.

"The wealth is all. Just my shirt, huh, Mas?" Dita turned to her husband who was looking at Ale who was fast asleep.

"Yes, Honey. I've prepared some, just add less" replied Rendra.

"I'm sorry Baba, son. I thought about leaving you. Though Baba didn't see you for a moment it felt like she was missing." Rendra stroked Ale's forehead, then kissed her.

"Mas, did you tell Mama we were leaving?"

"Yet. This is I was just about to say. When you're done packing, honey, just take a break to accompany Ale to sleep. Asar will have just left." Rendra got up from the bed, and went out to meet her mother.

Hc .. tok ....

Rendra knocked on the door of the mother's room. After getting an answer, he immediately went into his mother's room. She saw the Mother Goddess sitting in front of the work desk with several pieces of clothing designs there.

"Mama's busy?" Rendra sat on the side of the bed, facing her mother.

"No, just seeing there's something to add to what's not in the design." Mother Dewi took off her reading glasses, then sat down facing Rendra. "What's up, Ren?"

"Rendra wants to stay at the resort for 3 days, Ma."

"alone?"

"Sama Dita and Ale, Ma."

"But Ale's a kid, don't go far, Ren."

"Not far away, Ma. It's just the West Ringroad there, near the gutter." Rendra mentioned the name of his resort.

"Oh yes already. The atmosphere is good there. Mama's been there with study buddies."

"Later Rendra took an online taxi there, Ma."

"Why not bring your own car? It's a lot of it, right?" The Mother Goddess frowned.

"Maybe Mama or Shasha's sister wants to use the car tomorrow or the day after."

"Mama's got no plans going anywhere, Ren. Brother Shasha kaya also has no events. He most likely went with the Emperor carrying a motorbike. You just take the car."

"There Rendra also went nowhere, Ma. Just need a car to get out and go home."

"Take it with you. You need more than mama. Ribet bring Ale equipment when using an online taxi."

"Ma, actually Rendra wants to buy a car."

"Make what?"

"Make use Dita college, Ma. It is impossible for Rendra to pick up Dita using a motor let alone bring equipment to pump milk. If Rendra can't, Dita can bring her own car."

"Just use the car, Ren. No need to buy new. My mom rarely goes. Even if there is an event can use an online taxi. Save your money for Ale or any other need."

"But, Ma---."

"There's no buts. Mama will be angry if you buy another car. If you want to exchange the same larger is okay, but there is no need to buy a car again. You'll also open a new business, Ren. Better the money to buy a car used to develop the business alone."

"Yes, Ma." Rendra lowered her head.

The Goddess stood up and approached her son. He sat next to Rendra.

"Not mommy to interfere with your household and financial problems, Ren. But, as long as there are vehicles that can be used better use existing ones. Mama never taught you guys to live extravagantly. There's money right away buy whatever you want." The Mother Goddess gently stroked her son's back.

"We're self-employed, Ren. We have to be good at organizing and saving money. Efforts always revolve not always above, there must be times below. Do not let when we are below, we do not have savings that we can use to connect life. When we are above, we also must not takabur and spend. At the top, we can save more money and share it with others."

"Yes, Ma. Forgive Rendra. Today Rendra has many khilaf." Rendra took a long breath.

"What do you mean, Ren?" ask the Goddess Mother not to understand.

"So Rendra has been selfish with Dita and Ale until Dita cried, Ma."

The Mother Goddess gasped at the confession of her son. "You're okay now, right?"

"Already, Ma. If it's not better, where might Dita want to be invited to stay the night."

"Oh, so you go that to celebrate because it has made up," guessed Mother Goddess with Rendra's deranged expression.

"Mama, just cut it. That's not the real reason" elak Rendra.

"Does my mom know the real reason?" Mother Goddess smiled, teasing Rendra.

"Mmm, that's because Dita's finished puerper, Ma." Rendra held her nape while smiling shyly.

"Basic to you, Ren. Just can't wait. If you want it at home can also, later let Ale sleep with mama."

"It's not fun at home. The romantic moment is lacking, Ma."

The Mother Goddess smiled, sneering. "Yes, who feels the newlyweds continue. Do you have to stay there to take care of Ale?"

"No need, Ma." Rendra shook his head quickly.

The Goddess returned smiling. "Treat Tita gently. Don't push if he's tired. More control yourself, Ren, don't overdo it. Pity your daughter-in-law if you forsir. Remember, there's Ale between you."

"Yes, Ma. Rendra wants to get ready first, Ma. Asar's gonna be gone, we're leaving."

Mother Goddess nudged. "Yes." Yeah."

Assalamualaikum.

How's everything going?

May your friends be good and healthy always.

I want to confide, can ya 🤭🤭🤭

Actually this is my anxiety from a long time ago. And also felt by some fellow writers and a handful of readers who care about the author.

I want to ask friends, what kind of story criteria deserve a gift (gift) and vote?

Is the gift (gift) and vote only appropriate for writers with millions of readers?

Or will only be given faithfully when there is a giveaway for those who give the most gifts (gifts)?

Do budding and dime writers like myself and some writer friends with few readers not deserve it even a single rose?

Or is our story just worth reading, liking and commenting on without being worthy of gifts (gifts) and votes?

In this NT or MT application, you only need to issue an internet quota to be able to read without having to pay with coins or points. Points can be obtained for free by running a mission.

Can't the surrounding friends appreciate us a little (authors) by giving gifts (gifts) even if only with a rose?

I'm really concerned about some good writers who get little appreciation from readers. Most readers only give their gifts to writers with millions of readers or when there is a giveaway only.

I personally, always give a gift every time I finish reading a novel to appreciate other writers who have taken the time and thought to be able to write a story.

I just beg you, please respect writers like us more.

We have been very grateful that our writing has been read, but we will be happier and more enthusiastic if we are more appreciated.

Thank you for reading this curhatan, sorry to be born and inner when someone feels hurt or offended. 🙏🙏🙏

Wassalamu'alaikum.
