Renita's pregnancy entered the fifth month, her stomach already appeared to be enlarged even larger than her first pregnancy. Today there is a check-up schedule. This was enthusiastically welcomed by Armand. Because this is the day that awaited, he will know the gender of the child in the birth of the wife.
"Aren't you working?" ask Renita.
The pregnant woman, pacing back and forth to prepare their bad breakfast. The hour hand was already showing at half-eight, while Armand was still wearing casual clothes while reading the newspaper at the dinner table accompanied by a cup of hot coffee.
"Today we check-up in the morning. I can't wait."
Renita just throbbed hearing that.
At the moment about to turn to the kitchen, there was suddenly a small hand that was hugging him from behind.
"Mama..," his whine spoiled.
"Eh, smart mama's son woke up not crying." Renita sat down on a chair nearby, then carried the child into her lap.
Marvello immediately hugged her spoiled mother despite being obstructed by a protruding stomach.
"Geyak-geyak, Eyo eyi."
(Mama's belly moves, Vello tickles).
Armand who heard that could only frown. He still did not understand the words that came out of his son's mouth. Unlike Renita who laughed at hearing that.
"What eyek Aya oyang ua. Keyed-keyut." The toddler changed to comment on the face of the father who still has not changed.
(Papa ugly like an old man. Wrinkles).
"Papa's old, Dek, '" Renita clawed with her laughter.
Marvello grew up to be an active and curious child. Each time, he heard a foreign word coming out of the mouths of those around him, the toddler would respond quickly.
"Ama, what kind of a big capa is this?" she asked by holding her mother's stomach.
(Mama, who's moving here?)
"Shy, sweetie."
"Come on, Ama." Vello blinked her eyes a few times which looked even more cute in her mother's eyes.
(Vello, Mama).
"No!" Renita wiggled her index finger right to left.
"Vello's brother's sister. 'And soon Vello has a sister."
Patiently, the woman explained to her son.
"Marvello, what's it like to not have a baby sister?" Replace Armand who asked his son.
"You-you." The toddler shook his head with excitement.
(Look).
"You but you're giddy" murmured Armand.
"Do you want anything?" ask Renita.
"Look."
Again, in response with a slit.
(May).
"Mouth says it will but the head doesn't. Which one's right, Vel?" Armand felt anxious himself seeing his son's behavior.
"Udahlah, not finished serving Vello. This is bathing him. I'm gonna get ready, too." Renita handed her son over to the husband, then passed to his room.
"Come, we're flying ships" Armand shouted, positioning his son's body parallel in his arms.
"Apang bang..," he cried cheerfully.
(Flying ship).
The tiny arch disappeared behind the door of a room.
...----------------...
"How, Doc?" armand asked, his net seriously staring at the large monitor in front of him.
Now, they are in the hospital to check on Renita's contents. They left together because Marvello was kidnapped by his grandmother when she was going to be invited to the hospital. And Armand could only agree than later exposed to a long scolding from his mother.
"Awhile, sir. I am still looking for. It seems, the baby is ashamed of the cats," replied the Doctor patiently.
"From his father's shyness" said Renita.
He was always upset whenever he remembered the time when the husband was not shy, asking the husband-wife relationship problems to the doctor at that time.
"Shy, how?"
"It's a ranj*ng problem with the rest," the woman sewed.
"That's what keeps being remembered. Was it wrong to ask? 'You don't know" said Armand with a sinless face.
''Whatever."
''Well, meet."
The loud screech distracted Armand and Renita.
"What, Doc?" asked Armand enthusiastically.
"Attent, Sir. It looks like a girl but it's not too obvious. I try to find a clear position. Hopefully the baby is not shy anymore," said the doctor while moving a tool in the area of Renita's stomach.
"Well, this is obvious."
Armand waited enthusiastically for the explanation of the white-clothed woman.
"The baby's a girl according to Mr. Armand's expectations. He is also healthy, a normal weight according to age. So, there's nothing to worry about."
"Yesse!"
...----------------...
After checking the contents, Armand invited his wife to stop by the largest shopping center in the city. She wanted to buy all sorts of trinkets for her baby. Renita tried to advise her husband, so as not to be too hasty because the age of the womb is not yet seven months. But the man did not heed that advice. For him, it is all just a myth of the ancients, while we have lived in modern times.
Hearing that, Renita could only give up. It's free to forbid a human being to feel this one head, he thought.
''Well, which good one, what is this?'' Renita showed me two baby clothes that I found very funny.
''Take them both" said Armand, holding a trolly.
Renita just according to her, she looked for a few pieces of clothes for the newborn, then looked for clothes that were slightly larger than before. Not to forget, they are also looking for all other details.
''Ren, look for wall stickers. Soon, I want to design the baby's room. That too, why did you take his clothes just that? Is it less?"
"Son, this is more than enough. Clothes like this fit only for a short time, the size of a little can not be used. Mending the size is rather large buy more, Mas."
Armand just nodded.
"Geez! This is very funny," cried Renita when looking at various accessories for baby girls.
"Ren, slow down.'' Armand almost hanged himself to see the behavior of his wife who suddenly ran towards the place on the way.
"Basar woman, that was a snitch. Pas already shopping forget everything," he murmured while pushing fast the trolley he carried.
Almost an hour a couple was shopping for all the needs of their second child. There are also some needs of pregnant women themselves, their groceries should not be asked, three trolleys full until Armand must ask employees to help him. Renita is always busy when shopping, everything that he thinks is interesting is immediately taken without thinking long.
Now, the pregnant woman was already in the car with a glass of ice boba in her hand. He rested his feet after walking for too long.
''Didn't anyone miss?'' ask Armand who's ready to run his car.
"There, the ex," Renita replied with a close eye.
"He's serious she replied like that" Armand grumbled.
The car began to walk away from the shopping center parking lot.
"Yes, isn't it, Mas? his ex's missing."
"Hmmm.''
...----------------...
After traveling for four recovered five minutes. Finally, Armand's vehicle entered his courtyard.
On the porch of the house there is Amalia and Setiawan is accompanying his grandson to play. Marvello was chattering in front of the opa enthusiastically, and Setiawan occasionally responded with a laugh.
''Where have you guys been? Departing from morning, almost this afternoon just come home."
Renita only showed me a row of white teeth. Meanwhile, Armand immediately opened the car trunk door, then called Mang Udin to help bring his groceries to be brought into the house.
''Oh my God, you guys are robbing what?''
Amalia shook her head looking at the various items that were dropped from the car.
"Is this all the baby needs?" ask the middle-aged woman.
Renita just nodded in response.
''Your gestational age hasn't even been seven months, Ren. Pamali bought a baby's needs, let alone up to this much." Amalia tried to advise her son-in-law.
''It's just a parent myth first, Ma. We live in modern times." Armand.
"In fact, the advice of parents must first be obeyed, Ar. They wouldn't have said that if nothing happened afterwards. And most things are bad."
"Mama, that's it. Don't make Renita think. Our baby was healthy. And one more thing, she's a girl" Armand said before disappearing behind the door with a box of her groceries.
"Finally, you have a pair. Congratulations, dear." Amalia hugged her daughter-in-law.
The anxiety of his advice disappeared just like a change of joy.
"Healthy huh, Beautiful. Oma can't wait to see you. Later replace you who become the next Oma event," said Amalia by gently rubbing the distended stomach.
''Yes, Oma." Renita answered by mimicking the voice of a child.
