"The baby cannot refuse. We go rame-rame. Occasionally should be refreshing, Mba. Do not keep working. The children are all in the family." Lady Helena was persuading her besiegers to go with them.
The Pradipta family plans to go on a short vacation to Maruly's hometown in Sumatra.
"Well, are you curious about Andaliman's pizza? Yesterday there was a friend at the hospital who went there and tried. I also want to go to the area that the president visits."
Ms. Rohaya was almost influenced by her iron speech. The store cannot be closed. How customer?
As anxiety enveloped his mind, his already defunct daughter passed by from beside him while talking, saying,
"It's only been a week, Bang. Brother does not feel sorry for Mom and Dad. Later change after Yuyu lahiran. Yuyu guards the shop Brother, Hehehehe"
"....."
"The truth! Not more Bang. Isn't that right, Ma?" Ayu looked at her in-laws while asking. The one asked was confused about what to answer because he did not really understand what his daughter-in-law was talking about and who she was talking to.
"Mom would but wouldn't, Bang. Mind store. Though this was Yuyu's request for the same baby grandpa. Dedek baby crying want to go for a walk with grandma she said." His face was made clear when the interlocutor was far tens of kilometers from him.
Hearing Yuyu talk like that, Mother Rohaya immediately hit the arm of the padlock Ayu who happened to be sitting next to her.
"Sableng's boy!" he said without a sound.
"Sttt!" Ayu who was angered only gestured to her mother with the index finger on her own lips.
"Can, right?"
"....."
"Ka Marta is the best. Later Yuyu brought woven cloth cash Lake Toba."
"...."
"Yes, take care of it. Later we will be uniform if bang Rudi gets married."
"OKe. Yuyu closed."
"Big!" said Ayu while lowering the phone.
"Same mother can go, Brother who replaced. Ka Marta gave me permission."
"Ck, Ka-"
"This is in exchange for Yuyu's promise to bring her mother to Jerusalem, Mom," Ayu replied, cutting off her mother's speech which almost landed on her seat.
"From lake Toba to the Cross of love it is only two and three hours. We'll all go there."
"It's not comparable to dong Yu, same as Jerusalem!" Her in-laws even cornered her.
"Mom don't remember Yuyu. This is Yuyu helping mama who again persuaded Mother. Anyway, if you go to Jerusalem, Yuyu's son will grow up a little. It's still a long time, so go to the kids first."
Her in-laws just clucked in Ayu's response. Equally spiritual travel. But it's clearly different.
"Yes, it's our birth so go, you owe this, Yu!" said Rohaya's mother.
"Yes, Mom. Try telling me Mom's daughter-in-law too, because last night she had a plan, once Yuyu brojol wants to immediately make another child."
After that, the story actually landed on his head plus an affectionate blow on his back.
"You here, this may not be your plan, but tell me it's Jansen's plan."
Ayu chuckled while rubbing her arm.

"Don't you think our sir is leaving?" Rohaya was a bit suspicious if her husband did not agree even forced.
"Yes, Mom! Jansen has been on vacation for a long time. But I reasoned about the store. After I thought about it, what Jansen said turned out to be true. Our old age should be spent more with enjoying nature. Don't keep working."
Rohaya was calm after hearing her husband's answer.
He started packing because he was leaving early tomorrow. This trip has been arranged by the Pradipta family. They are just followers.
Since their daughter officially surnamed Pradipta, several times the two families often gather even though just eating together or barbeque.
"Mother is still not expecting, sir. I guess even though Yuyu is official with Jansen, their family will be normal to us. But mother's estimates are far off."
"Bapak is too. Especially Yuyu was rejected. But, thank goodness. You see Yuyu fits her mother-in-law."
Both are grateful for the efforts of his son who survived the attacks of the Jansen family first, sweet fruit now.

Meanwhile, the young couple inside the luxurious room was in a state of speechlessness.
"I dreamed of this a long time ago, Mom."
The young woman who was Johana was still as excited as she arranged their clothes into a suitcase.
"What should I buy for a host?"
During this time, whenever they visited or her in-laws came to visit them, Johana was confused about what to buy, because her in-laws always refused and said it was not too necessary.
"You've come with Vania, it's already a great gift for Mamak. Plus now bring a big family. Mama would be even happier."
Ruly stroked his wife's still-wet face.
This time he was truly grateful, doubled up because his in-laws had already received him so much with iklas. Even her in-laws yesterday apologized for always sniffing at her.
"Don't forget the Host's phone, I want to eat the fish cooked with the acid again."
"Naniura?"
"Yes!"
"Hehheehe, well my queen. Anything for you!" Ruly kissed his wife.
"But not most. That's not good for him!" he continued while rubbing his wife's flat stomach.
"...!!!" Johana raised her face to look at her husband with a look of disbelief.
"Mass?"
"Yes, you forgot to keep the test, well I see," she said.
Johana patted her forehead. The plan he wants to give a surprise in the village later has even been found out now.
"Do we need to go to the doctor first? We checked for vitamins and boosters. We want a vacation. Afraid you'll do it because of the long journey."
Ruly sat down next to his wife. He leaned his head on his wife's shoulder and still stroked that flat stomach.
"I won't force. And I'll take anything later. But if I may ask, may the boys well, dear. For us Batak people, the male offspring is very important because it will continue the family tree."
"Amin, may God please, my dear!"
Johana already knows that. Since he married Maruly who incidentally is a Batak tribe. He read a lot about batak. One of them is the successor of the family tree. Back when she was pregnant with Vania, she wished her first child was also a boy. But God's gift is more than he asks."
"We go to the doctor tonight, don't tell mom, I'll be banned from coming because I'm pregnant."
"Yes, but there later, if it's tired, don't force it, baby!"
Johana nodded.
The two hurry up and accidentally leave Vania on her oom and tantenya to keep the secret from leaking.
"Ma, Jo same mas Ruly out daft, yeah. Want to buy snacks and souvenirs to make it to the village."
Johana approached her daughter.
"Main oom and aunt Yuyu first yes, Sweety. Take the baby's grandpa to chat," point him at Yuyu's stomach that opens.
Vania was always happy when she stroked that distended stomach. He said his dedek moves follow the hand of Vania.
"Yes Mama. Don't forget to buy donuts!"
Johana nodded with a smile. He was also curious, would Vania be that dear to the sister in her mother's stomach?
Because people say, our children can be more affectionate to other people's babies than their own baby siblings.
"Don't buy most of it, Jo. Repot. There's been march, isn't there, Ly?"
"She, Ma!"
"Yes, buy a little, which is about not sold in March."
Johana and Ruly nodded.

"The baby is healthy, the development is good. All normal I see. Thirteen weeks, Mom!"
Johana and Ruly were shocked. Thirteen?
Johana forgot and did not pay much attention. The month is less regular. This year he often checks at home whether it has been positive or not. But still nil. I have been tested often and always disappointed. He ignored her for several months.
"Sstt, don't cry! I'm a crybaby." Maruly chuckled as she rubbed his wife's arm.
"I'm happy, Mas. No wonder, when I was waiting and very hopeful but I was always disappointed the outlook was negative."
"Just be grateful, our fortune may be now!"
Both of them came out of the doctor's practice room with glowing faces.
