I'M Nathasya Gustari
Start Back

The morning at Tara's parents' house is more colorful than usual. The innocence and cheerfulness of Mentari is able to evoke the atmosphere in the house that is usually quiet.

"If we had many children. Surely this house will be more crowded with the joy of grandchildren huh, pah?" mama Shinta asked the husband sitting next to her.

"We can ask Tara and Caca to give us a lot of grandchildren to enliven our house later after they get married."

Caca stared at the two middle-aged men with fusillade eyes. "Indeed Caca machine, ask for a lot."

Since the heart-to-heart chat that Tara did last night. Caca is more able to open her heart and feelings back. Trying to accept the presence of the man was also his parents.

All of this is done for the common good. For the sake of the child who can get the father by his side. For the sake of grandparents who can also hug their grandchildren. For the sake of Tara, the man she loves who had expected her presence and the child to be united as us.

And for sure. For his own happiness too. Removing the sadness that often appears every time he misses the man who fills his heart.

"Many kids are happy, Ca. I want to have a lot of kids if I can. Let's just say when Tara can't come home, there's still another kid you can hope for."

In their old age, it was only the presence of children and grandchildren that they hoped for. Accompany the more often lonely old man who accompanies. What else if there is no activity they do to fill their time.

"But Caca doesn't want to have a lot of kids, mah. Giving birth and raising Mentari alone still Caca clearly remember what it's like."

Caca recalled when the night was hard his stomach felt heartburn. Since noon there have been frequent contractions. But because it's a first experience, so Caca is insensitive if it's signs of going into labor.

Until midnight the unbearable pain made Caca yell calling doctor Risma who fortunately was not on night watch in the hospital.

The condition of Caca who was unable to get out of bed made Caca forced to scream.

The process of giving birth to Caca is done in the room that the woman occupies. All the pain and crying, Caca felt himself. Without anyone to accompany and give her the spirit to fight to give birth to her little daughter.

Only doctor Risama tried to give him some encouragement. Although in his heart Caca always shouted Tara's name. Wish the man was there to say a word that would give him strength.

But wishful thinking is only wishful thinking. Never been real. It all happened because of her own actions. And Caca tried to take it. She fought again to give birth to her child safely into the world.

"Caca's pain feels alone. Without anyone to encourage and encourage. The sadness was even still impregnated." muttered Caca softly. The murmur he unconsciously uttered while reminiscing about his difficult times. A sense that he never wanted to express to Tara and her parents.

"sorry. Sorry to make you fight alone." Tara said regretfully. Wake Caca from the reverie.

"Eh. Nope.. Not that I meant to bring it up. Really." Caca felt bad to see the sad Tara. "I just don't want to have a lot of kids. Just add one or two, Caca taste enough right, mah?"

Mama Shinta forced her smile and nodded. Change the chatter with lighter and less sensitive ones.

"GLUTINOUS!!" rani exclaimed as soon as she entered Tara's parents' house.

For the first time in years, Caca contacted her best friend again. Even on the phone, Rani was already sobbing.

"Why you can't go and don't tell me!" rani was angry in her tears. Hugging closely friends who are swallowed by the earth. Never heard of it.

"Young, Ran. I'm afraid you'll tell Tara that I'll tell you where I live."

Rani took off her embrace with a look of disbelief. "Lo think I'm that bucket?! you think I'm a friend who can't keep secrets?!"

Yep. That's been happening. Tara did tell people to follow Rani. Afraid the girl is lying or one day Caca calls her best friend.

"lik! you don't believe me, do you?! the proof is that you are pregnant I am not told!"

Caca bowed softly. "Gue's shy, Ran. I was embarrassed to get pregnant when I became a mistress. Not because I don't believe in you. But I'm ashamed of you."

Rani hugged her best friend's body again sad. "We're best friends. So do what you're ashamed of. I will never judge you. I'll support all of your decisions, as long as they make you happy, Ca."

Caca nodded in his best friend's arms "I'm sorry." That's all Caca can say.

"If you'd told me, you wouldn't have fought on your own. I'll definitely be able to keep you in your tough times."

"There's a Rian who won me."

"What?!" sentak Rani's. "Lo hide all from me, and you even tell me guys?"

Caca then told me everything from the beginning. From the time Rian helped her to those who got married and divorced after a few months.

"Crazy!" Rani shakes dramatically. "It's totally crazy! there's a lot I've been through about my two best friends."

"Sorry, Ran." Caca clasped Rani's hand feeling sorry.

"That's it. What matters is that you are happy now."

Their conversation then flowed more. Caca told me about the small business he had. Likewise with Rani who is now taking S2 for the same department.

Until Rani is so happy and anxious to play with Mentari who is so cheerful and smart.

And in the afternoon, Rani drove Caca home. In addition to Rani who wants to know where her best friend has been staying, also because Caca does not want to be increasingly the gossip of her complex mothers if after a night of not coming home and returning home between men. Fortunately, Tara understood.

"So here, you've been staying all this time?" they began to enter the village where Caca lived. "That's near. But why haven't you seen me all this time?"

"Gue rarely goes out. Yeah to avoid the possibility of meeting Tara."

Rani clucked while her head shook. "It's your intention to escape from Tara."

There's a lot Caca wants to tell his best friend. Like when they were both in college. They always share what they feel.

He misses the moments of pouring his heart out on his best friend. Ah no. But his only friend.
