Mother to My Children
Chapter 42 (Pretending happiness requires energy)

"Mas Bara tumben kepo equals my life. Usually stupid, why? Jealousy yes, know I'm close to other men...Cieeeee started liking huh? Hayo ngaku," seduced Syafira menoel-noel Bara's arms while smiling.

Bara just snorted to hear it, not denying but also not assuring.

"I just want you to know the limits of hanging out with other men, that's all. You are married so have to keep the attitude, do not meet other men, keep the family's good name," said Bara without turning his head, staying focused on staring at the highway.

Syafira exhaled a rough breath.

"If you think I'm carrying around the postulate as a wife, husband, as if you were already acting like a husband, forget that he said I was only a mother to his children not his wife. As good as his own wudel," his mind was upset.

"Kok quiet?"

"Yes yes mas, do not need to be lectured I have the same khatam that so, mas Bara has often talked so, besides I also just accidentally met and not alone too, too, there are twins, too" protea Syafira.

"You were if you said husband stay say yes why? There is no need to stretch into his own five meters of speech" Bara said.

"So you've admitted that you're my husband?"

"If I have acknowledged you as a wife, are you ready to do the work of a real wife?" challenge Bara.

"Which task is it?"

"Omm?"

"Eh, yes sorry, his name is also a human place to forget, it should be in jidat om eh mas Bara written gini, Suami legit Syafira not omnya' hahahha," Syafira lamented.

"You're Fir" Bara just shook his head. It is difficult if you have to argue with his wife who according to him is still ABG, still likes to ngeyel and many ways to fight the words of a mature person.

"Eh, what was the meaning of the task has not been answered,"

"It's nothing...It doesn't matter" replied Bara.

"Yes, it does not matter to me either" said Syafira cuek.

Their car had entered the gates of Osmaro's residence. Bara told people to park his car. He came down holding Nala who did not wake up even though he had reached home, if he woke up would be crying, different from Nathan, slowly awakened by Syafira. The child is more able to work together, more mature and independent thinking.

"Nathan, wake up baby, it's home," said Syafira slowly. Nathan slowly opened his eyes. Without Babibu, Nathan got out of the car as soon as he got home.

"Mother, Nathan wants to take a bath, sultry," he said as soon as he entered the house.

"Nathan Kan just woke up, soon yes, let his life in the gathering first. Mother ready for the water first okay?"

Nathan nodded, he chose to sit on the living room sofa.

Syafira follows Bara who has gone to the twin's room first to put Nala to sleep.

At night, Syafira appears to come out of the twins' room and to the dining table where Bara is waiting.

"The kids are asleep?" ask Bara.

"It was a mas, they said tired, so early sleep after teaching and learning the Maghrib was finished, they said they were still full so did not want to eat again. I only made them two glasses of milk as a delivery boy to sleep, "Syafira explained.

"You make sure they go anywhere, until they're so exhausted,"

Syafira also explained in detail her activities with the children today while taking rice, vegetables and side dishes to the plate for her husband's dinner.

The real Bara already knew, pretending to listen just because he wanted to hear his wife talk.

"Why did you buy the twins clothes with your own money?"

"Nothing for a peeper," said Syafira while sitting on the left side of Bara.

"Why don't you buy your own clothes or necessities?"

"It's okay, I don't need anything to buy yet" replied Syafira while taking the rice for herself.

"Use the card buy whatever you need Fir, just like Olivia used to, even though she can make her own money, but I still support her inner birth" said Bara.

Syafira smiled wryly in his heart to hear it, Bara was born to provide Syafira more than enough even excess even without the black card gold he gave. But for an inner living? he has not given it yet.

"I won't use your card for my own purposes as long as you don't consider me a wife" she said.

"Why is it?"

"I think you're full too like the twins because you ate, too" Bara replied.

"Yeah, you know, the food in the restaurant was just a seuprit, did not make full for the size of an adult like me. The price is beuh! Expensively begging for forgiveness. Yes Rendra doctor who payin, but still mending eat cheap chicken noodles make full," the soul of misquin bin mother-he appeared instantly.

"The next time I pay, there is no need to ask Rendra for a treat, your husband is more than able to buy food at a restaurant like that, even more classy," said Bara, who was not involved in the incident, somehow he doesn't like it when Syafira talks about other men.

"That's not the case, I believe that if you are more than capable, the tree is capable. But honey the money,"

Bara just a head-scarf.

"You're still strong enough to eat that much Fir?"Bara looked at his wife's astonishment. Strong also eat it thought Bara.

"Aren't you afraid of fat?" ask again.

"Why afraid, already this practice, there has been a husband with this child, what else is in search of" said Syafira origin.

"Partially I eat a lot because pretending to be happy it takes extra energy mas," he added.

Again Bara was only able to shake his head while staring at the tough woman in front of him.

Bara was standing on the balcony of his room, recalling his conversation with Syafira in the car this afternoon. If the woman that Doctor Rendra loves is Syafira, that means twice he broke his best friend. However, he also did not fully blame because from the beginning why doctor Rendra was not honest with him, if from the beginning he was honest maybe Bara would consider the happiness of his best friend.

"Now everything has gone Rend, sorry if again I have to be selfish. Syafira was already the mother of the twins, I couldn't take it off and sacrifice the children's happiness, and it seemed like the bar-bar girl had started one side of the space in my heart, even though I wasn't sure yet," he murmured in the heart. He continued to massage his temples, his head felt dizzy.

"This morning I make coffee" said Syafir who had just arrived with a cup of coffee to accompany her husband to enjoy the cool night breeze and disperse the daydream of her husband.

"Thank you" said Bara, turning towards Syafira who was putting coffee on the table.

"I went to the twins' room first, I was sleepy. Mas do not sleep at night, the night wind is not good for parents," Syafira said.

"I am only thirty-two years old Fir, not yet that old," Bara protested, making Syafira chuckle.

"Yes, I want to sleep first," One step Syafira stepped, Bara quickly turned her head, grabbed and pulled his wife's hand and held her from behind.

"Please release!" syafira.

"Just leave it like this for a while," Bara said.

"But I find it strange that mas like this, I am not this ordinary," Syafira said.

"You have to get used to something like this, because maybe I will often do it to get used to physical contact" Bara said.

"What do you mean?"

"It's okay, shut up. Why do you take it once, always answer if anyone says,"

"If not answered it is considered arrogant,"

"Well answer again, you can be silent Fir, just enjoy the moment,"

Syafira just kept quiet no longer, maybe this is a good start to their relationship, he thought.

"Tonight sleep here,"

"But don't fuck around,"

"As long as you are not ready, I will fast, longer meditate, so that later directly sakti mandraguna if used,"

"Well, by the way, I don't understand,"

"No need to understand the theory, practice directly will be more afdol," said Bara.

"Nih om-om said what the hell, not very clear," inner Syafira.

No more voices, Bara still hugged Syafira as the two stared at the starry sky tonight. Although feeling strange, Syafira tried to enjoy it, to protest even he was in lazy mode.
