"Sir, Ms. Reni...."
Bi Lastri came to his two employers who were enjoying a relaxing time after dinner in the family room.
''What's up, Bi? Here sit on the chair," Renita told the housekeeper who was standing not far from her.
"No need, Ma'am. I'm just for a second. I want to ask permission to go home for a few days, maybe a week at most. My mother is very sick, Mother. He kept looking for me" Bi Lastri said with a bow of his head.
"All right, I allow it. Later, if there's anything, call us soon, Bi." Armand.
''If things are conducive, auntie will come back soon. One month later my wife gave birth. For sure we really need aunty's help" Armand politely asked.
"Good, Sir. I'll be back soon if I can stay there. Thank you, excuse me." said the middle-aged woman back to her room to prepare the items that will be brought tomorrow morning.
"Mama go, Bi Lastri come home, you work. Complete is my loneliness. Who helped me keep the super active Vello. Where the stomach already looks like a stew, easily tired anyway," complained Renita after the departure of Bi Lastri. She rests her head on the husband's shoulder.
"You take it easy, I'll help you. If necessary I take Vello to the office. There must be many employees who want to be an impromptu babysitter. They're always anxious about the Vello until the fight comes." Armand tried to calm his wife while gently rubbing the stomach containing the baby.
"Princess papa, secretly yes. Don't be naughty in mom's belly!" Armand spoke softly in front of his wife's stomach, occasionally kissing her.
Armand developed a smile when it got a response from within. The movement is so intense that it is visible from the outside.
"Active yes, you."
"But I ask you not to be tired of catering. I don't want anything to happen to you and baby. Let them do what many employees do."
"Yes. I love him too. I can't wait to meet her, Mas" said Renita, spoiled.
"Eyeah..."
"But—" Renita hung up her words.
"Why?"
"I want a normal body."
Armand exhaled a rough breath. Many times this woman expressed her wish, but it was not possible. Caused at Renita's first birth through the line of surgery. And that's at the second birth. It was also consulted by a doctor who used to check the content of Renita, the answer remains the same, must be surgery.
"Can't, Ren. You have to operate! Fear of anything happening the same stitch wound that before, let alone just last year."
Tears seemed to reminisce in the woman's eyes. Perhaps, if made once a clear crystal blink it will fall. Ever since she was pregnant, Renita's feelings have become more sensitive, and she realizes it. Whenever his wish was not fulfilled, he would sulk, get angry, even cry like this.
''So, don't be sad. I'll accompany you later on. If I need to come in."
There was no response from Renita's mouth.
''It's night time, it's time for bed. Vello's been sleeping." Armand extended a hand, taking the wife to her room on the second floor. With resignation, Renita received the helping hand.
''Aunty, be careful.... When you get there, call me immediately." Renita advised the woman she already considered like her own mother.
''Yes, Ms. Reni. Aunty, you'll have news."
''It's a little for aunt." Renita stuck a white envelope into the woman's hand.
"What is this, Ma'am?" Bi Lastri received with trembling hands.
It can be guessed if the contents of the envelope are money, but he can not be sure how much the clear content is quite thick.
''No need, Ma'am. My salary is more than enough. Me ... I don't deserve this."
Because of feeling hesitant, Bi Lastri intends to return, but soon rejected subtly by Renita.
''For aunty, it might be a little help." Renita gently grasped the hand that was holding the envelope.
''Alhamdulillah, thank you, Mr Reni, sir," he told both of his employers that Armand just happened to come over.
"To the station between Mang Udin only, Bi. I entered during the day today, so I can accompany Renita in Marvello's care."
"Good, Sir. Thanks again. I say goodbye first," said Bi Lastri as he stepped towards the car.
But had not been able to open the door, the middle-aged woman again approached the employer.
"What's up, Bi?" renita asked confusedly as the aunt returned to face her.
"Don't know why? Suddenly there was a bad feeling. It's heavy like it's Miss Reni. There was a vague sense of anxiety in the aunt's heart. Sister Reni be careful...."
Renita and Armand stared at each other. Various questions came to their minds about his ART speech.
''Aibi, energy only ... I'll always take care of Renita."
Armand's remarks slightly reduced the middle-aged woman's anxiety. Finally, inevitably he immediately resigned before missing the train.
''Come on, come on in" Armand asked his wife.
But, Renita immediately held her husband's arm.
''What's up?"
"I'm scared, Mom. My mom said that too yesterday. Asking me to be careful, even though my mother said it was okay, but her gaze was very clear showing fear. But, what is it? I don't know" Renita said with a worried look.
''Teach them like that, because they are the ones closest to you. Do not think too much later even stress. Everything's gonna be okay, they're just ordering."
