Marrying Sergeant Major
~ 26 ~
For almost two months we were at home without Bima mas, Lala and I spent our days on schedule in general.
Monday to Saturday I go to work and Lala goes to school. While on Sunday we sometimes go to traditional markets, supermarkets, occasionally accompany Lala to play timezone in the mall.
We also spent time with papi and mami by enjoying the natural scenery on the border of Lumajang, Malang, Pasuruan and Probolinggo.
Although the journey from Surabaya to Mount Bromo is quite far, but Lala is so enthusiastic about wanting to climb the mountain.
Bima called me when we were there. And Lala said she wanted to visit again with me and Bima.
Hearing Lala's request, Bima immediately nodded in agreement, even he promised to take me and Lala aboard the helicopter.
Later I borrow a helicopter to take Lala with you around Bromo, yes!
Those are some of the words I remember.
Mas Bima himself can indeed control the helicopter, and I do not know when the promise can be realized. Given that my relationship with him is still on the spot, it seems unlikely that his promise can be fulfilled in the near future.
Last night when Bima mas called, he said that the day after tomorrow will go home, because indeed the service period in his field is over and will be replaced by other personnel.
Mas Bima did not say exactly when or at what time he reached home, but he said if he came home before four o'clock, he would invite Lala to the school.
Mas Bima even invited me to meet at Lala's school that day, let's both pick up Lala, he said. Lala would definitely be very happy if her father and her mother both picked her up.
Lala's happiness is indeed a top priority for Bima and me.
But do not forget Arimbi, your heart is very disrespectful, he is so insolent and selfless, should be in addition to preparing the needs of the household that runs out, you also have to prepare your mental, you also have to prepare, condition your heart so as not to beat excessively
I sighed, reminding myself of how evil the detachment was.
"It's shampoo for dad, huh, bun?" Lala asked, she was sitting on a trolly of groceries I pushed.
We are currently in the supermarket to buy household needs that are running out. I have to knock at home, so that it runs out, just take it in the closet.
"Yes, son"
"Dad's shampoo is up, huh?"
"Not finished yet, La. But the mother has to nyetok, in order to fit out, already at home, so later it does not need to go out to buy it"
Lala just nodded, whether she understood it or not, but she seemed to be quite familiar with my explanation.
"That's what bun?"
"This aromatherapy made in the closet father, mother yesterday saw it is up, so mother bought, later can be directly hung"
"Where's bun hanging?"
"In my dad's closet, near my dad's clothes hanging"
"Let's let dad's shirt smell good?"
"Yes dear"
I again pushed trolly this time I directed at a special stand for the needs of children.
"Mothers buy soap for Lala too"
"Yes, Lala's soap is running out too"
"Lala wants a strowberry bun taste"
"No wine tasting?" I looked at Lala who was looking at the soap bottles lined up neatly on the shelf.
"Lala's bored, want to change it?"
"Yes can dong darling, just as I like Lala"
"If you want a strawberry or aja bun"
"Okay, mommy grab that strawberry yeah"
"Eungh"
"Keep the toothpaste what's the taste?"
"Just as rich as his soap"
"Strowberry means something too?
"Yes"
After from the bathroom stand and the like, I brought trolly to the milk stand area and staple food, lastly to the fruit and vegetable stand.
Now that Trolly was full of stuff I bought, we lined up at the cashier to pay for groceries.
Since Friday is a short day, I can make the most of my shopping.
After shopping, I asked the labor workers to bring groceries to our car, because I was quite overwhelmed carrying quite a lot of goods.
"Bun, want a burger" Lala stared at the fast-food restaurant.
"Lala's hungry?" I lowered my head a little so I could look at my daughter.
The boy nodded.
"Okay, let's eat a burger first"
I held Lala's hand and pointed my foot towards the restaurant.
While waiting for the menu I ordered ready, Lala and I joked and teased each other. While being cool and focused on the game of animal guessing, I heard the voice of a man who was familiar to me.
"Hello pretty girl!"
When I turned my face to look at him, Mas Saka's face was smiling brilliantly with glasses perched on his nose.
"Mas Saka" I got up, linked my hands together.
"Hai Bi" Mas Saka looked to glance back and forth like he was looking for someone. While Lala looks confused, from the look on her face, it seems Lala does not remember the Saka mas.
"Anyone Bi?"
"Lala's Sam, mas"
"I don't mean the same husband?"
"She's in service outside the province"
"Oh" Mas Saka nodded in understanding. Then refocus the netra onto Lala's round bead.
"Om doctor?"
After mas Saka said that, then Lala's confusion was answered.
"That's been checking on Lala in the hospital"
"Yes, Lala remembers"
"Can you sit?"
"Can"
He sat in front of us. While my feelings suddenly fretted.
How not, this meeting is a disaster for me, because I believe Lala will complain to Bima mas, that means I have to prepare words to explain this accidental meeting.
"It seems like a fun coincidence huh Bi?"
"meaning?"
"I'm glad to see you" I'm honest.
"Can I have a mobile number?"
I did not immediately answer, there is no way I gave my mobile number to Saka mas, later Bima even more do not see me.
"Mas can give me a gold business card, later let me contact the mas first"
"Would you call me first?" Search with squeaking eyes.
"L-yes, if the husband allows it" I said unkindly.
"I understand"
A few moments later, our order finally arrived.
"Mas have a message?"
"Already" the man folded his hands on the table while watching Lala who was so pleased with the burger before his eyes.
"Please eat, I just ate"
"Bun, Lala wants her caos a little bit"
"You want to wear caos?"
"Now"
"How old is he?" ask Mas Saka suddenly.
"You want five years, Bun?" Lala asked me.
"Yes, in a few months, son"
"Already school?" ask Mas Saka Again.
"Already, but in the playgroup"
"Want TK to mean something soon?"
"Yes but said I want to be in RAnya uyut abi"
Mas Bima was already planning to include Lala in his RA grandfather's abi. Later can be directly continued in his MI, like me and Bima first.
"Do you want to be a hafidzah?" While continuing to chew, Lala answered every question mas Saka.
"Hafidzah what is it, om?"
"Hafidzah is the Quran memorizer for girls, son" I replied.
"As for Lala's parents, mother is also good at reading her Quran" Mas Saka glanced at me.
"That means father's kayak is also yes bun, father also memorized one book of the Quran"
"Yes, son"
"So your husband was santri too, Bi?"
"Yes, we're one ponpes, only a few years apart"
"So far between your ages?"
I nodded, though a little doubtful.
"How many years?"
"Eight" I looked down.
After about ten minutes, Ku lyric mas Saka looked at the clock on his wrist before then saying.
"I'm Bi first, I have to go to the hospital"
"Yes, please"
"Om first yes, La. I'd like to see you again sometime, right?"
"You're om"
"Okay, greetings to my father"
"Lala's gonna tell dad"
"Smart child" before rising up, Saka reached out and gently rubbed the top of Lala's head.
"Salim first son" my orders were directly carried out by Lala.
Mas Saka also let Lala kiss the back of his hand.
"Let's Bi"
"Sir, be careful"
The man walked away from our table.
As much as Saka, I was a little relieved. I felt that our chatter was crisp, I myself felt awkward if I had to chat with a man, where my status is the wife of people.
