Surya was waiting patiently for Kalia outside the office gate as agreed.
Ten minutes later, Kalia's car showed up. Stopped right in front of Surya and did not wait long, Surya entered into it with footsteps still limping.
" How's his leg?" kalia asked trying to break the silence.
" It's not painful now, mah, only the wound is still wet."
" Then until the house, it's kassa fabric directly in open aja. Do not use it continuously, the wound will be dry longer."
Surya nodded.
" Lia cape, right? Want to replace the one that drives?"
" No, it's okay. We'll stop by and buy dinner. I don't want to cook anymore. It was like the smell of spices sticking in my nose, the kiss continued. Make nausea."
Surya was disappointed that he could no longer taste the Kalia cuisine. But he tried to understand, his wife must be tired and pregnant anyway.
" We buy soto lamongan before turning home. Just buy a snack too, afraid Lia hungry again later tonight.."
" Yes." answered Kalia quickly. Then turned his car towards Colonel Masturi.

It's been almost a week, Surya's leg is injured. It is now healing even though it has not dried completely. Today is Saturday, as usual they go home at 2 pm. Surya says he won't be coming home with Kalia, other than for fear that someone will see. Surya also had to go somewhere to take care of something.
Kalia did not have any problems even though it seemed as long as they were married it had been more than a month. Surya always leaves on Saturday afternoon then comes home very late. Sometimes Sunday is like that. I don't know what Surya's doing out there, it's just that Kalia's too prestigious to ask. After all, at the beginning of the marriage they had promised not to interfere in each other's affairs.
That afternoon Kalia permission for Surya to go to see Mama Rani. Surya said hello to her in-laws and apologized for not being able to visit Mama Rani together.
" Assalamualaikum.mamaaa.." call Calia excited as she squanders into the house. Mama Rani who was busy in the kitchen was so happy to hear a very familiar voice calling her.
" Waalaikumsalam..Thy. Geuning didn't want to come home?" answered my mother while welcoming her child.
" Willful or surprise. " Kalia smiled and kissed the back of her mother's hand.
" Which solar? Naha not coming?"
Kalia took his mother's hand.
" Kang Surya again has business, do not know every Saturday or week would just go out. He said take care of something."
" What did you never think he was doing?" Kalia shakes.
" Yes ask laaah. Let you know her job outside is what she does."
" Ah Lia doesn't want to know. Let her be happy." replied Kalia suddenly pouted.
They both sat on the sofa in the living room.
" Is it really okay? Naha or a pout?" asked Mama Rani while poking her son's chin.
" Who's pouting?" Kalia immediately pursed her lips.
" Yes you are the one who is pouting. Therefore, if you want to know the nanya, let's not be curious. Let you calm down too. As husband and wife, it is natural to know each other's affairs. Because you are partners. Yeah, try to come home from here you ask him." Kalia just nodded lazily.
" How did he crave? it's still safe, right?" ask mama again while stroking Kalia's stomach.
" Alhamdulillah Mah's. It's mengingan now. At first I was tormented."
" Yes.patience. Her name is also pregnant. Mama also used to bother also during your pregnancy. Until the age of 5 months still can not eat rice. It smells like tea. Fortunately the father mah da exemplary husband, despite the rice strike but mama's carbohydrate intake is maintained. Sometimes I make potato schotel, or fillings, what we're important in eating." Mama Rani smiled when she remembered the kindness of her late husband again.
" Father is a topnotch husband, Mah. But hopefully now I'm happy there. We're doing it."
Mama Rani nodded then wiped away her tears that started to expand.

When we got home, the lights were still off. Looks like Surya hasn't returned yet.
" Where the hell is he? Every Saturday must be late." Kalia started grumbling.
At about 9 pm, Kalia was sitting around watching her favorite drakor in the living room. I heard greetings from outside the house. Surya's home.
" Assalamualaikum."
" Waalaikumsalam" Kalia replied with a sullen look.
" Lia hasn't slept?" surya asked while sitting on the sofa chair and opened the socks she was wearing. His face looks exhausted.
" Kang, where the hell is it?" kalia asked after gathering courage and reducing her prestige.
" There's some business" replied Surya while leaning her body on the sofa.
" Yes what business? every Saturday or week a hobby comes out. Go home the night. Are you the same as her boyfriend?" Kalia started sewot.
" Athaghfirullah, by the way where is Lia mah."
" Where are you going, dong? if twice I could understand. It's every week."
Surya breathed deeply. Then..
" Ang college, Li."
Lia fell silent, digesting Surya's speech.
" lecture? Whereabouts? Why never tell a story?"
" Lia was never nanya" Surya replied with a smile.
" Yes, even if I don't, I'll tell you. Why say there's just business going on."
Solar silent.
" I'm ashamed, I'm old but still a student. S1 also, mending if it's S2, S3 or es teler. hehehe.."
Kalia swigging.
" What major? what semester is it now?
" Akang studied at a private campus so there would be night classes. At the University of Bandung Raya Department of agribusiness, it's the last semester anyway, next month the trial." replied Surya with a smile that can not be separated from his face.
Once again, Kalia's admiration for this man increased. So many surprising things he has known in the past few months. I don't know what else Kalia will know about Surya.
" It turns out that I really like plants. Pantes at home mamah and here a lot of plants. Anything else I don't know about?" ask Kalia full of search.
" A little bit, Li. They will know everything later too. Hahaha." replied Surya with a big laugh.
" Iiissshh.gede head on him."
Surya laughed again.
" Oh yeah, Monday can't be on leave? Time to go to the doctor."
Surya smiled again.
" It could be, I'm the husband standby." Surya's heart is back in bloom. This time Kalia himself asked to be accompanied by an obstetrician. I hope this is a good sign for their relationship.
