Jogja, You & Memories
Middle Way

Pasty Dwayne greeted me with his best smile before Dominic and I actually walked into the house.

On the terrace that has an oval chandelier orange like waiting for someone who he has impatiently and he believes will give one unspeakable happiness spread both hands.

Dominic was about to hug him but Pasty immediately shook his hand and grumbled. “You later only.”

Dominic grinned as he slicked his shoulders. He shuffled after being expelled by his grandmother.

“Grandma want Rastanty!”

I opened my heart and hugged her. Grandma grabbed me and sang a little star with her voice choked up in English. Happiness is not at all hidden in its adorable body.

I straightened up after a whole day Dominic was content to lock me up in a hotel room. Paying attention to my stomach while smiling himself and showing off his happiness to Paijo et al by phone. They promised to come here when I was pregnant four months later.

“We continue inside granny.” I said while widening the door.

“Marvelous... Grandma can dream beautiful now, Rastanty.” he said while pressing the wheelchair button. Dominic pushed him while smiling amusedly.

“Indeed granny slalu nightmare yesterday-yesterday?” goda. “Ngeri once, wow..”

Grandma nodded without hesitation. “Definitely Dominic! The unsettled grandmother of Marisa's descendants stops at you and your sisters... But forget..” He flicked his hands, ”Now it's good.”

Grandma waved at Mbak Iyah who brought two plates of grilled fish to the dining room..

Mbak Iyah was struck with growing up who bowed to the front of grandma after wiping her hands on the apron.

“There can I help you with, bu?” tanyanya kagok's.

“Turn the wallet in the room.”

Also, Mother Iyah entered the grandmother's room near the family room.

I grinned while waiting for another hundred dollars to fill my wallet with a glass.

Dominic stuck out his tongue with his eyes half-closed, I'm sure he was envious. Sure. Xixisxi.

“Have a heart, spoiled many times. Very nice of you, Ras.” Dominic leaned over, moving his grandmother to a chair in the dining room.

“This, Bu.” Polite, Ma'am Iyah put a white wallet like giving up the most dangerous treasure for him if only a piece of paper is missing in the handbag.

“You make sure to buy a good-nice vitamin, Ras. If need to buy from abroad.”

I received five hundred dollar bills. Dominic gaped and squatted in front of his grandmother.

“Only Rastanty?” the tan is poignant complete with artificial lara gelagat.

“You've brought two thousand dollars! You're crazy to extort grandma's money, Dominic!” Pasty Dwayne hits Dominic's stocky arm with his handbag. “Already, wake up. Eat!”

I stuffed my money into the bag and tried to lift Dominic by putting my hand under his armpit. But now it's my shoulder's turn to hit Grandma.

“Not to be spoiled, Rastanty. You are not allowed to lift heavy!” seriously said.

“Tuh listen, Dom. Don't be spoiled!” I hiss, “Build gih, we eat-eat. I'll give you twenty percent! Suer.”

Dominic got up and sat down, half-guided he folded his hands on the table as the employees were listening to the boss talk.

I ring the bell, the meal sign is ready. But the fifth time the bell rang, no one went down the stairs.

“People on out, Rastanty. On busy looking for your son's welcome needs. Very excited at home, even, yes, the name of your child we've thought of.” obviously granny excited.

I looked at Dominic who was about to issue a protest. I know exactly what he wants to say. The instalment of our son's name from them must have made him worried.

”Already, eat. No need to think about Marisa and Prambudi, they have eaten for sure.” continued the grandmother firmly.

I prepared his second dinner onto the white ceramic plates while looking at the two men with an inscrutable smile.

After dinner, I handed over a copy of the USG results to my grandmother before dragging Dominic who put on the face of the mangrove to the room that moved on the ground floor. Amazing, like magic our stuff on the third floor has already moved here.

”Uluhh... reed.. big baby start sensitive.” I'm mucking Dominic's face, “Starting together with grandma herself?” I giggled at his chest while holding his hand to the edge of the bed.

Dominic sat lazily while throwing his face away. I widened the dress I was wearing, immersing her face in the skin of my stomach. ”You've got him 24/7, Dom.”

He wrapped his hands around my thighs, clenched, feeling the warmth of my stomach skin with a swab of his cheek that touched comfort. Dominic broke down the strength of my legs that held my body and half its weight.

“Udah, do not go down....” I hold her shoulder and then step back, my dress blushed before the shed touched the skin of my thigh.

Dominic snorted while laying down with his feet on the floor. I took off his shoes, before lying next to him. The ceiling in this room receives lighting from vintage oval light bulbs.

“Bapak ever said we have to find happiness together. On the middle road. I'm sure, we can try to follow his dues, Dom.” I said calmly. “You are calm.”

“Gak will be quiet..”.

“Only name..”.

“Although just a name, I'm the father!”

“Iya.”

I let it drag on in the heartbreak. And everything becomes like a normal series of married couples who celebrate intimacy as well as chaos lazily.

Dominic wiped away my sweat as he completely vented his gloom at every sigh and groan. Imagine how dashing and funny he is now even though his face is pouting.

I cupped his cheek. “Udah time... I'm not the Dominic I know. The stoic and shady, the patient and accepting. What's wrong with you, Dom?”

“Beyond rain, inside warm.” Dominic got up, he opened the bedroom window and grabbed a blanket to cover our bodies.

I smiled while nodding. “You need fresh air?”

“I need your opinion, Ras.”

“Iya what?” I turned off the lights with the remote. The room became dim, my hand looking for the position of Dominic's hand to lock on my deck.

“We try to make our child's first name is our choice, big name business we leave to the Father-Mother. You agree?”

“Bby... I am now a good boy, I am not stubborn.” I always tease him.

Dominic pinches my stomach until I hiss.

“How much money have you received from grandma?”

“Lumayan..”.

“Share-share, Race. Add-on capital at the office.” persuade it full of tactics.

I hissed while changing my position. I looked at Dominic seriously, different from a minute ago. “You really have a problem again, Dom? Still impact from Kendranata?”

“GAK!” Dominic bared his teeth. ”Create to eat Stacy with Marinda, all adopt male dogs. Yes?”

I turned my back, turned my back to him as I grabbed a mini sling bag on the floor under our pile of clothes.

“Two hundred of your dollars, the rest for me, Ma'am Iyah and Mr. Tedy.”

Dominic was staring at the money. “Finally at my age now I am still considered human. Not a bank with a lot of money.” He giggled as he dragged my body into his body. ”Still, Rastanty.”

I closed my eyes and opened my lips. Less asem.
