Hope and Wish
H&W2Q. Night guests


I heard her voice, then I felt that her face had moved away from mine. I peeked a little, before finally opening my eyes wide. 


Thankfully, his head was out of my car. 


"Just a minute, let's get the car." He looked back and walked away. 


My son laughed a little, then kicked his leg like he was happy. He thought, he was invited to peek ba. 


It's my third day in Jakarta, I'm taking a car at my cousin's other grandfather's house. Then, I took a hotel room and took my son for a walk. Every visit to the zoo, even though I am happy to see the animals in person and can feed them. 


Seven-month-old, certainly not much understood. Except, he was invited to peek ba. 


"Where are you going? Don't travel to Cirebon at night." Bang Workshop was back on the outside of my car window. 


"Fresh out of the hotel room earlier, keep eating. Want to go to Ancol, take a hotel room there, continue tomorrow to Dufan same Galen." I looked back and tried to poke my son's legs covered in trousers that covered the soles of his feet. 


I know even cars with low AC are cold at night. 


"Dufan? Baby to Dufan, what's up? Want you to play with lightning? What tornado?" He was shocked by his perfectly blooming eyes. 


What about her who is always amazed if there is something to do with the baby? Is it because when she was a baby, she wasn't kicked? Whatever he was surprised. 


"Look at the crowd, there's a badass in there." The important thing is that I went in and my son knew his name was Dufan. 


Let my son have Kindergarten later, he can tell me if he ever visited Dufan. But yeah, I hope Galen remembers. 


"At the red light there's a badass." He said slowly and clearly. 


"He's a baby, Ra. At least two years, he can know the tourist attractions. Well, where the endurance of his body is not yet strong. Hey, you see that your baby is still blindfolded. Better take the hotel, the kelonin, the ASIin, or the dot, the love of the sufor." He pointed at Galen with his index finger. 


I noticed Galen's reaction from the rearview mirror, he pulled his thumb out of his mouth and he showed off his gums that had not come out a single tooth. He saw his grandfather was angry and even laughed, let alone see his mother got a person's rent. 


It must be entertainment for him. 


"Galen is sleepy? We're gonna wake up." I looked back and extended my left fist towards him. 


I used to take him to the boom, he responded sometimes and sometimes he didn't. However, this time he responded to my fist and he laughed amusedly like a toothless baby. 


He is happy everywhere, he is happy everywhere. Most importantly, he is not fussy and is always healthy anywhere.


Galen's illness due to DPT immunization one, two and three. Ah, I stress myself every time I get immunizations. Immunized pain, not immunized can be more painful. I love him, even with a child like a friend or a nephew. 


I was thinking about not being such a big old man, I didn't want Galen to be afraid of me telling stories or complaining. I want to grow up I can still be a parent who is like a friend, so that he grows up later can be open in telling stories and his attitude is not much pretended in front of me always his parents. 


Because there are only children who pretend to be good and good at home. 


"Would you rest at dad's? In the usual front room? Which time you were pregnant," bargained master Albundio who had no idea how many branches of the workshop. 


"Ah, may. All nengokin son of Abang sama almarhumah. I haven't had a chance to nengokin at all because, sorry?" Even when his wife died, I did not come to worship because in addition to the distance, I also had Galen who had just received DPT immunization. 


What do I give you? I remember some of the baby gear that was in the trunk. I have a portable baby stroller, which can be used until after two years. I bought it when I came home from the zoo and had not had time to use because Galen was more comfortable being a baby kangaroo. 


I thought, I'll use that stroller when I work at Cirebon. In order for Galen anteng and supervised, but should be given first to his son bang Workshop, Galen can buy again later in Cirebon. 


The LCGC red car had crept slowly in front of me, and I immediately followed it because I had forgotten the road to his father's residence. Apparently, he still lives there. 


I visited once, when I asked him to be a witness at my trial. Although at that time the workshop was temporarily paralyzed due to an accident, but he was good enough to meet my request for help. Yes, maybe, because he has other goals. 


Most importantly, my hope of divorce was a little helped by his testimony and his desire for other purposes with my foster brother was fulfilled. 


Hope and desire.


At one o'clock in the evening, it would be inappropriate to visit. But I was invited to take a break. Not to visit. 


"Where's key? Let me park. Gih take your child, knock on the door, Farah also usually literate night." Bang Workshop approached my car. 


I nodded, I got out of the car and walked around to lift Galen. Galen was already noisy, he was most afraid of being left alone. Maybe he thought, I got out of the car and wanted to leave him. 


After I got out and was walking around to be able to open the door where Galen was sitting, the Workshop bang in and occupied the steering wheel. It sounded like Galen was having a conversation and when I opened the door of this car, Galen's whining eased and changed with laughter. 


Galen used to joke with anyone who invited her to my extended family home environment, she easily socialized with new people as well. 


"Baaa…. Who's talking to, Galen? Mama wasn't talking, hm?" I opened the safety seat and slowly lifted her body. 


He was immediately excited, his legs immediately kicked. I don't know what her father's been doing since we separated when I was pregnant with Galen, but Galen's like a frog. Is it because it's been tummy time since zero months? But I thought of stimulating Galen's ability to maintain body balance, coordinate the thighs and control head movements. Not so he can jump like a frog. 


Yes, he can jump in a down position. In fact, he could not crawl or suck. He can sit upright at the age of seven months, he can also respond and take things with his own hands. Yes, of course, if it can be reached by his hands. 


I grabbed the baby bag, which was next to Galen's child car seat. Then just closed the car door. I stepped into the courtyard of the house that was still the same time as I set my foot here, the house was clean and looked neatly arranged. 


Slowly, my car went up to the yard. Then, bang the Workshop out and open the garage door. I went up to the porch and knocked on the door several times. 


"Yes, Han…. Just jerk." It was the sound of Hamdan being so friendly and pleasant. 


I was once given channa and guppy fish by her when I was cravings and pregnant the second trimester, I was happy and happy because of her giving. Although finally, the guppy fish for consumption of channa fish. 


Czech….


The man who was eight years younger with the father opened the door for me and looked at his expression, I put on a big smile welcoming his startled look. 


But suddenly he hugged me with the baby in his arms. She was crying, like meeting someone who made her feel good.


Why does his response look like this see me?
