One month later, …
"Papa?" Kiana whispered right next to Jovian's ear.
Make the man stretch all his muscles, while trying to pull the consciousness that had disappeared.
"Darling?" Kiana called back.
And it managed to get Jovian to open his eyes, albeit with a glare that still looked adorable. Especially when the room was already bright because the curtains and windows were already open, until the light slightly disturbed his vision.
Downstream the cool breeze blew, sweeping the surface of Jovian's body skin, thus making his drowsiness continue to dominate.
Kiana smiled, she lay on her side, while propping up her head using one hand. The handsome face looked puffy, with eyes that blinked a few times, then Jovian returned a smile from his buying wife.
"You're so excited today!" Jovian's voice sounded raucous.
He cleared his throat several times, to relieve the comfort in his throat, which he always felt when he woke up from sleep.
Kiana smiled again, then the woman inched closer, and drowned herself in the arms of her husband. Even Kiana's cheek touched the chest of Jovian's field that was currently wearing nothing.
"Bagun, baby. Papa's been waiting, aren't you going to Kalimantan today?" He said in a spoiled voice.
Jovian's eyes that had been open, now look closed again. However, it seems that consciousness has completely mastered, until his hands continue to move patting the wife's back.
"Baby, you asked me to get up! But you just made me want to sleep again!"
Kiana looked up her head, looking at her husband's handsome face from a very close distance. While Jovian looked down, and landed a sweet kiss on Kiana's lips, until it made the woman a little surprised.
"Let's wake up. Don't make the others wake up! It's morning, I have to get ready, right?" Jovian whispers.
Kiana's face looked slightly flushed.
"Papa?" Call Kiana.
She made her voice like a daughter so spoiled to her father.
"Yes, Baby?"
"Today's the first day you jumped into the world of mining?"
"Yes, of course." Jovian nodded his head. "At first my world was about a client's wife and son, then a tea garden, and now a coal mine. Pray that I can? This is all for you, .. especially you so as not to bother going far, especially with a pregnant situation like this." He scanned Kiana's face, then switched to rubbing the woman's stomach that already looked enlarged.
Of course, one baby at the age of five months already looks big, especially Kiana is carrying two babies at once.
"But I want to come!" And after gathering a lot of courage, finally those words came out of Kiana's mouth.
Jovian.
"Darling I want to come!"
"No, it's a long journey. You just wait here with Mama, okay?"
Kiana shook her head, then hugged her husband's body tightly, making her position even more clinging.
"Then you don't have to come!" Chirping Kiana in an annoyed tone.
Makes Jovian chuckle at it.
"Who asked, when will I refuse?"
"Return it's okay, there's Om Denis and Ebra, right? Then why worry about the lack of people?"
The woman grumbled.
"Everybody has their own portion. Ebra, Denis, and I need to start helping your Papa, because what he's holding now, you're in control. But since now you can't, that's why I used to!" Jovian explained.
Kiana kept quiet without changing her position in the least. Even Jovian felt a warm gust of breath sweeping across the surface of his chest.
"So, .. Let's get up! I have to shower and get ready." He said, then Jovian looked down again, and kissed Kiana on the forehead.
The woman did not react.
"Babies?"
She was still silent, and it seemed like Kiana started to protest because Jovian did not allow her to come along.
"Mam? Come baby!" Persuade Jovian.
Kiana's breath was heard, then she broke her arms, got up and came down from the bed.
"Babies?"
Call Jovian when you see Kiana leaving. He even sauntered out without a word, with a sour-looking face.
"Gosh my god." He got up, sweeping his face violently. "Until when should I persuade him? He's always sulking just because I have to go." The man whispered softly.
***
He walked over, with his face bent, even his lips pursed, indicating that his mood was not as tight as it is today.
"Want breakfast? Everything ready at the dinner table?"
Kiana did not reply, she just continued walking past him, exiting through the back door.
"Kia?"
"I don't want breakfast!" Kiana Sentak.
Then he settled himself on the edge of the pond, and shook both his legs into the koi fish there.
"You fruit? Shall we ask that I get it back?"
"No need, Mama!"
Herlin froze in the doorway, looking at Kiana who was moving her legs slowly.
"Yes, Mama prepare everything first. Mama will be back."
Kiana did not reply again, until Herlin rushed into the house in astonishment.
***
"Mom see Kiana?" Jovian walked down the stairs.
Herlin who was currently standing beside the dining table turned his head, then nodded, while putting down some small dishes that he had filled with some slices of fresh bread.
"At the back garden. Looks like Kiana's mood today is not good huh? Mama just asked her answer briefly, Mama bargained for breakfast too she refused."
Herlin said, then he smiled at his daughter-in-law who looked ready. Plain collared short-sleeved black t-shirt, combined with young gray Chinos pants, makes Jovian look very handsome, especially with his new hairstyle (crew cut). So that the look of her hair looks a little shorter, and also but.
"Kiana sulks, Ma."
Jovian placed the briefcase on the chair of his dining table, then he went towards the wide open back door.
"fast." Herlin.
"Ah the boy started throwing a tantrum!" Herlin muttered as he exhaled.
Jovian's footsteps stopped right behind Kiana's body which was currently sitting at the edge of the fish pond. The tiny feet kept moving, making the fish continue to swim there and here with agility.
"Babies?" Call Jovian in a low voice and sound soft.
Then he crouched down, rubbing Kiana's hair that was left to unravel.
"Let's change your clothes, .. and ask Ipah to prepare our clothes. About two nights we'll be there. Except for your Papa, he'll be home tonight."
Kiana.
"Quick, I'll take you this time. But promise to be more obedient there?"
A previously gloomy face, with a sour expression. Now it turns sparkling, especially with a sweet smile that is seen between the two corners of the lips.
"Can I really come?"
Kiana pulled both her legs out of the pool there. Holding Jovian's burly arm, then standing up slowly, when movement began to be limited.
"Be careful!" Jovian said as she held onto Kiana.
"Alright, don't ask for an Ipah. I'll prepare our needs." His smile seemed to be getting wider.
"How about it, but if you need help tell me, okay?"
Kiana nodded, then she walked ahead of Jovian, entering the house in hasty steps. While Jovian followed from behind while shaking his head.
"Why else is he?" Herlin looked at her daughter-in-law who was now smiling faintly.
"Let's go, just let him be, Mam. If we get angry sometimes, it'll be all day." Jovian chuckles.
Then he sat himself on the dining table chair, with breakfast ready.
