Hope and Wish
R&W29. Reading and chatting


"Married in a hurry right, astonished." Dad shook his head, received a letter from the workshop. 


"Just the same, Om." He glanced at me.


"Huh! You must be acting, right?!" accuse me of hitting the head of the workshop with a piece of paper. 


"Try asking Ranya, Om." He threw it at me. 


"You're the same Han?" Dad asked me softly, but his eyes were sharp. 


"Pregnated," I replied deliberately trapping Bang Bisker. 


"No boy, Yang? Try telling me something." He poked my chin. 


"HEY!" Dad brushed off the hand of the workshop that poked my chin just now. 


"Tuh, Dad. I mean, I'm the least it can be done." I pretended to cry sad. 


"Are you an easy one, the poke time can't help?" sewot dad later. 


Sad, bang Workshop even laughed off. 


"Udah wants to leave, Dad. Dad, don't bring try, my interest is not hard times loh." I glanced at my father, and then swung my lips. 


"Oh God, what is my sin? Got a girl right it's not right." I pretended to cry and hung out on the living room couch. 


"I was itching to get married first" said Biyung, by providing warm tea for us who just arrived home. 


While Farah had moved hands to her grandfather, om Hamdan had taken her away to Jasmine's sister's house. It turns out they still live here, I thought they were in Singapore. 


"Who's the guy?" Dad watched his wife who was arranging a glass in front of me, bang Workshop and in front of dad. 


Galen is still sleeping, he said. 


"Just like bang Daeng." Biyung went back to the back. 


Smart to save themselves, either biyung realize not if the breath of the father is like a buffalo towing goods. 


"Daeng, Daeng, Daeng!" grouse daddy off. 


"It's Wednesday at two in the afternoon? Why not morning?" I reread the paper. 


"Let's a quick afternoon, a quick night, Om," replied the Workshop bang who made me look foolishly. 


"Why do you want to?!" Dad rarely relaxed. 


Bang Workshop laughed a little and covered his face. "Son, that means let's prepare first in the morning. At least, Ra also has to make thin-thin makeup," he explained later. 


"Yes, you cleaned up, breakfast. Your ID put it on the table" Dad got up from his seat. "You're home, Deck. There clean up, rest at your house."


Then, dad glanced at the Workshop bang. "You're here, Han. Mother's house says you only have one room."


"What room am I in, Om?" Bang Workshop grabbed his backpack. 


"In the room next to Om's, later after the wedding nquatin that room as well. Here, you know." Dad took Bang Workshop away. 


I got out of the house and went into my own house. Had dawn prayers and had breakfast, I better sleep first. Dad said Galen was still sleeping. 


Until the time of Ashar, I got word from Biyung to gather together and teach at the Chandra bang house after Maghrib. My activities were a little hampered, because Galen missed ASI directly. He has just collapsed, since last Dzuhur I took it at the home biyung. 


"Will he come down, Biyung?" I checked Galen's ears that were stuck in my chest. 


We were sitting on the porch, listening to some of the children of our extended family who were trying to memorize. Every now and then, I would go along to correct their recitation. 


"Good five ounces, Deck." Biyung again straightened the reading of a child in front of him. 


Clean all, not nose or ears. Biyung was at risk of the person, even though he seemed to sleep as well. The legs on the head were clean without irritating the scalp, all the babies here were almost wiped clean. He does not use special baby oil, but uses coconut oil as a result of making his own. From coconut milk continues to be cooked, to produce clear oil. 


"What are you eating, Biyung?" I don't believe in biyung, but I want to know what my son ate. 


"The cook who just cook, let him eat, Biyung does not love chili."


I immediately thought of my son's teeth. 


"Biyung, he doesn't have any teeth yet. Did you eat cob and chicken wings?" I imagine Galen is choking. 


"Can, Deck. Biyung cook rice rather nice, but still look like rice. The cake was softly chewed before entering his mouth, but still he chewed. Just yesterday, he ate kale vegetables, really can."


"How did you feed me?" 


"No idea, it's taken care of here and there. The same father Biyung ate, bribed again."


How come you don't know? There is another mother who is like a biyung. 


"Fat dong me?" He said they ate, I was bribed back. 


"The skinny kid's just Ceysa, Dek. The other, his body on so. Until the nutritionist goes back and forth, back and forth to the internal medicine specialist, check there check here, because his body is thin constantly."


I remember the body of sister Ceysa, my other brother's father. Until now she was back pregnant, her body remained thin and tall. It seems, his body is like that. 


"Sir Jasmine is pregnant again, Biyung?" My ears listened to Gabriel's recitation, the youngest son of Aunt Ria who finally had a sister back. 


"Udah, Deck. Wedding, next month. Drunk babe, cake time Flower pregnant Zee. Poor thing, back and forth clinic continues, dehydration, lemes, boro-boro can activity."


Waduh, I was afraid so too when pregnant with the seed of the family. Flowers like that, Brother Jasmine like that as well. 


"So, who's Varro?" Varro is Jasmine's first child with her former husband. 


Varro Leander Dirga's name, father was a little upset by the name because it resembled his real father's name. His real father's name was Revano, a frequent nickname of 'Van', just like the father's name calls. But still, the important thing is that his son is healthy said the father. 


Oh yes, bang Vano is still in prison. Either negligence or what, but the story is that he did not turn off the gas stove when going out of the house. Until it finally exploded and damaged the house of Jasmine and the house I occupied, because our kitchen was the same wall once. 


"Yes the same with Nilam, Dek. Ma Nilam with your father, only five years different. So anyway, Yusuf married a much younger woman to his father Han Sama Jasmine."


Lah, just like there's a derivative huh? Yeah, I mean, marriage is different ages like that. 


"So, bang Workshop has another sister huh?" I laughed amusedly, because I will be the daughter-in-law of my brother who is most anti me. 


Yeah, we've been fighting since we were kids 'cause I said I was naughty. Now it is often a storm just because the sweep is not clean, the glass droplet water is brought out of balance. 


Later if we gather on one roof, must be very exciting between the daughter-in-law and in-laws. Ah, surely the drama will be like the story told by DEBM, my mother-in-law is her brother from my other brother's father. 


"Udah, Brother. Anterin' home."


Ria's aunt's habit is like this, always ask to take her home after salary. Even though he came with his other brother, the turn to go home made me have to spend effort.
