Next day
Happy Family Hospital
Dion, Nathan, and Daniel were having lunch in the cafeteria as usual.
"Eh, happy first month, Daniel. How, have there been any signs of pregnancy yet your wife?" (Nathan).
"Heh, it's not polite to know the meaning of pregnancy. You don't want me to fight for years?" (Dions).
"Yes yes, pregnancy is not for questioning. So, how nice to talk about what the newlyweds are?" (Nathan).
"This is my example" said Dion, then turned to Daniel. "Pretty Boy, what style is it?"
"Buwahahahahah .. right, Bro! Great question. We're getting answers from Doctor Daniel, Sp.JP." (Nathan).
The style? A lifestyle? Photo style? People should finish their questions completely. (Daniel).
Daniel seemed a little confused to digest the questions of his two friends.

Ren's Writer's Office
Karen was reading through a list of work to be completed that day. He calls Haris who is in the studio and adds to the list of additional illustrations that Haris has to work on there.
Haris should be in the studio until 2pm and working on editing afterwards. Shortly after Karen hangs up her phone, Mami Seli arrives at Karen's office.
"Lhoh, Mami .. why not come here?"
"This is spontaneity."
"What's up, Mi?"
"Mommy wants to take you to the hospital where Daniel works."
"Oh, you wanna have lunch with Daniel?"
"No, it's past the break. Consultation on pregnancy."
"Se-now?"
"Yes, don't delay. Later if you have a problem, can be directly diobatin. You take it easy, Mami's a fair person really, tomorrow-tomorrow Daniel must also be checked."
"Bebebebebbebbbbbhshwhwhwbjdnsvsnj ...."
Hayah, what am I talking about. (Karen).
Due to her shock, Karen ba bi bu's lips let out meaningless words.
"Your work can be handled by others, right? You're the boss."
"Bebebebebebshhhsgshjdushksivj ...."
God, what else am I talking about. Why are no normal words coming out of my mouth? (Karen).
"Udah, come on, don't be a bi bu!"
Karen's employees just looked at each other to see their boss taken away in-laws themselves.
At the hospital, they headed to the registration. Of course, the officers recognized Karen and Mami Seli. Some say hello.
They also went straight to the polystyrene. Doctor Dion is on duty there.
"Well, there's a special patient. Please ...." Dion invited the two women to sit down.
Mami Seli immediately conveyed her point. "Look, Doc, Daniel and Karen have been married for 1 month, but there are no signs of pregnancy. I want to check on my daughter-in-law."
Dion mustard heard the meaning of Daniel's mother. "Well, let's check Karen's womb!"
The nurse helped lay Karen on the patient's bed and apply the gel there. With the USG tool, Dion checked the condition of the Karen content.
"The regime is not troubled. If the cycle is menstrual, is there a problem?"
"It's actually smooth but sometimes late."
"Often?"
"Acline, Doc. For example, this month is late, the next month is not late, the next is late."
"Is that a constraint, Doc?" ask Mami Seli.
"It doesn't seem like it, maybe it's the pattern."
"If there is no problem, can the doctor give tips so that she can get pregnant quickly, Doctor Dion?"
"First frequency is related." Dion explained it as explaining to the patient in general, but his patient this time gave an unusual reaction.
Just called so, he was already glaring.
"Not too often but not too infrequently." Dion continued.
Karen immediately swallowed her saliva which suddenly felt like a kedondong seed, hard to swallow.
"Bebebebsbehsvjsudhndkssjs ..." said absurd back out.
"Not to be ashamed, Ren! It's a medical problem." Her mother-in-law was convincing.
As Karen continued to be silent, Doctor Dion continued, "Then the recommended related position is the classic position."
Karen reflexes shut her ears.
I cannot continue this, my still holy ear must hear these things. (Karen).
"I'm sorry, Doc, looks like Karen's shy. Understand the newlyweds."
"Oh yeah, for a minute it looks like I still have the rest of the brochure" Dion said as he searched through the brochure in the drawer and found 1. "These are tips that can be done following foods that support fertility."
"Thank you very much, Doc. Um, if it's a vitamin, can it be prescribed?"
"Can, I have a specific milk and vitamin recommendation. Just choose which one, milk or vitamins."
"Ren, you like milk, right? Or just vitamins?"
"Su-milk, Mi."
"Then I don't need to prescribe it, it can be purchased in a regular store. This brand, this and this. Choose which one you like."
After that they say goodbye and go home.

When the clock comes home, Daniel, Dion and Nathan head to the parking lot.
"Niel, your mom was with Karen at the hospital" Dion said.
"Oh yeah?" Answer Daniel.
"Gue saw that, too" Nathan continued. "Eh, let's get my hands on pospak at the supermarket there, I'm getting scolded by my bini again." Nathan pulled Dion.
Daniel's coming home in his car.
Arriving at home, Daniel enters the kitchen to get a drink. Karen was already there finishing the cooking for dinner. She approached Daniel and kissed his husband's hand.
"You sick?" ask Daniel.
"Not really."
"Cooked for the hospital?"
Karen did not answer. Daniel downed a glass of water and then splashed with 5 boxes of pregnancy preparation milk on the kitchen shelf.
Then he pointed at the milk, asking Karen for an explanation.
"Yes, your mother took me to the hospital to check my fertility. Keep buying it."
"Oh."
'Oh' said? I was embarrassed to ask about my personal time in the hospital, and you answered 'oh'? (Karen).
"Hey statue of Anubis, about dong if answered. Cook 'oh' doang? Concerned about the same cake I've been scraped macem-macem the same with you doctor Dion. Shame, know!"
"Yes, I'm concerned."
"Aaarrrggghhh, I don't want to know! Anyway, you helped finish that milk!" karen said while serving her homemade capcay for dinner.
Yesterday you told me to get a urine test, now you tell me to drink pregnant milk, maybe tomorrow you tell me to put on a negligee. Do you think I am this guy? (Daniel).
Daniel sighed and nodded.
Karen was amazed by Daniel's kindness. They also started dinner. Karen glanced at her husband as if waiting for her next reaction.
While eating the first mouthful of capcay and rice from his spoon, Daniel was surprised. Karen's cuisine today is salty. Not without reason, Karen did deliberately give a little excess salt.
Her husband hurriedly gulped down some white water.
"Why, Niel? My cooking is not good?"
Daniel shakes. "Nob." He also continued eating.
Karen supported her head with her hands and kept looking at Daniel. It could be that Daniel praised the cuisine that is clearly the excess salt.
How did he react? Why not get angry? Don't you want to hit that guy? Try tomorrow I give you the salt. Or pepper sekilo. (Karen).
Karen started eating her food. He felt the cooking was salty and unpleasant. But for the sake of seeing Daniel's reaction, he was willing to eat the bad food and sacrifice his tongue.
Every three mouthfuls, Karen and Daniel both gulp down water to neutralize her tongue.
