Ajeng, Ferdian, and baby Arsene arrived at the clinic which looked deserted that afternoon. Ferdian opened the door for his wife who was carrying his son. Then Ajeng took out his medical card from his wallet and gave it to the nurses who were on guard.At the end of the week, Doctor Sita had a schedule to check noon until afternoon. Baby Arsene also has a control schedule at pediatricians, after this.
It did not take long, Ajeng was called by the nurse to enter the doctor's room.
"Hi Jeng, how are you?" greet Doctor Sita.
"Thank God, fine, Ta!"
"Duh Dedek Arsene is already this bloated, good yes suckling it?" said Sita saw baby Arsene who this time carried Ferdian.
"Alhamdulillah Ta, I drink a lot, and he drinks a lot."
"So this check up on Doctor Melia huh?"
"Yes." Yeah."
"Oh yeah, so you want to install a KB IUD?"
"Yes, I'm worried I forgot to take another pill Ta."
"Okay, how many years do you want to take? 3, 5, or 10?"
The wink looks at Ferdian.
"As much as you!" ferdian.
"That's 5 years, Ta!"
"Okay before we put it up, I'm clearin' everything first huh?" said Doctor Sita. He issued several brochures about the spiral type contraceptive device.
There are many types of spiral KB that can be selected as needed, the price also varies. But Sita recommends a type of spiral KB that has a silver core content that is able to increase the effectiveness of contraception in planning pregnancy programs, especially to make pregnancy distance. Doctor Sita also explained that the effectiveness of this type of KB reaches 99% because the failure rate is very low. He also explained the risks when using this contraceptive device.
"Are you ready?" ask Sita to Ajeng who looks nervous.
"okay!"
"Well, let's go to the next room, shall we?"
Ajeng nodded and followed Sita to the next room where the spiral KB would be installed in her womb. Meanwhile, Ferdian stood up as he calmed the baby trying to fall asleep in the father's cradle.
About ten minutes, Ajeng came out with a frowning facial expression, sometimes he seemed to withstand nausea. Ferdian looked at him in wonder.
"Udah installed?" ask Ferdian.
"Udah! So my stomach nausea," Ajeng explained. He sat back on the chair.
"The effects of nausea probably won't be long, huh? Depending on the condition of your body, there are only a day or at most a week," explained Sita.
Ajeng.
"Oh yeah, Karin was born yesterday, huh Ta?" ask Ajeng.
"Yes. He's still here. Probably home tomorrow. He is also great rich you were born. Almost without stitches."
"Wow, cool!"
"Well, you guys rarely talk to me about childbirth, but I'm lucky to have such a great patient and a great friend of yours!"
"Had to!"
"I myself even pasiran the first child, stitching a lot. Because I'm the kind of person who can't be fooled, haha!" remember Sita when she gave birth to her first son who is now 5 years old.
"Haha, the hell time?"
"Yes, my husband is so dizzy against me who is noisier."
"There are you, Ta!"
"Oh yes, I give vitamins to relieve nausea. If you have any complaints, you can chat me. Control again next month."
"OK! While waiting for Doctor Melia, I looked at Karin first."
"The sipp! Any more questions?"
"There is no power!"
"Okay, I'll see you soon, Ajeng! Bye baby Arsene, I'm sleeping! Great Daddy can make kids sleep!"
"Hihi is still learning Doc! Incidentally, Arsene is calm again" said Ferdian. Ajeng was about to take the child's body to carry it, but Ferdian still wanted to take it.
"We go see Karin first huh, Ta! Thanks very much!" said Ajeng parting.
"Together!"
Ferdian and Ajeng came out of the doctor's room and cleared the administration and fees for the examination today.
"The lizard's still in the car?" tanya Ajeng after completion of administration and payment.
"Yes, I haven't brought it yet!"
"I took it, pinch the car keys!"
Ferdian told his wife to take the key in her pants pocket. He rushed to the parking lot to his car and picked up a gift to give to Karin.
"Yeah!" take Ajeng, he brought a box big enough to give to his High School friend
Ferdian followed him. They went to a room at the end of the hall. He knocked on the door and said hello.
"Wa'alaikumsalam." said a male voice, the brown door was opened. Reza, Karin's husband, smiles to welcome his guest.
"Please come in" Reza said kindly to two of his guests.
"Ajeeeeeeeeng!" greeting Karin who was still sitting on the mat, he stretched his hand to hug his friend.
"Karii!"
"Where are you healthy?" asked Karin to pay attention to the condition of her best friend who looks fit, even though it looks a bit cute.
"Alhamdulillah, you must be healthy as your mother!" answer Ajeng.
"God, I'm sorry yesterday that you haven't stopped looking. Uh where's your baby?" ask Karin.
"That's the same Daddy. Uh still outside!" said Ajeng only realized, if it turns out Ferdian is still outside with Reza, maybe worried because Karin Muslimah who greatly maintain his aura. Though Karin was fully dressed wearing khimar and Muslim clothes at this time.
"Hihi Daddy's son huh?"
"Yes that's right, because today Ferdian is off, right, so the opportunity for him to sleep with his son," said Ajeng enthusiastically.
Ajeng walked to the side of the mat and saw Karin's son sleeping on the bed.
"Oh Allah, this is so cute Zaara. His chin looks like yours, Rin!" said Ajeng watching the cute face of Zaara.
"Ah time anyway?"
"Yes, but you don't know, it's big it's gonna change again."
"Hihi yes yes. Uh, Jeng. You're wearing an ASI, right?" ask Karin to make sure.
"Yes. Thank God there are so many things about me."
"Alhamdulillah, Arsene's sustenance! I'm still trying, hopefully enough for Zaara."
"What is important is that we have positive thinking, then the ASI will continue!" say Ajeng.
"Yes, I'm excited and optimistic that I can give ASI to Zaara."
"As long as our husbands support us, as long as we are strong, right?" say Ajeng.
Karin smiled happily.
"Eh I tried to take Arsene first yes, so you can see my son," said Ajeng stepping outside.
Soon he held Arsene, who began to wake up and look for food.
"Ih looks like you Jeng!" karin said he saw Arsene's writhing face.
"Haha, said the Ferdian family like Ferdian, said my family like me. Maybe it depends more which face is seen times huh? Hence the perception of different people," said Ajeng chuckled. He also while breastfeeding Arsene mumpung still in Karin's room despite behind the apron suckling him.
"Yes, huh? Same thing Zaara also it was yesterday fitting family on coming."
"Oh yeah, there's a little memento for Zaara. If we're big friends, huh, Cen?" said Ajeng pointed to a large box that had been placed near the door of the room.
"Jazakumullahu khair, Mommy and Daddy Arsene. May Allah repay your kindness" said Karin sincerely.
"Aamiyin. Oh yeah, sorry we can't stay long. Arsene has to check up again, the doctor has also come!" ajeng
"Oh yes? Thanks a lot, Jeng!"
"Yes, Rin!" said Ajeng who this time fixed his blouse buttons and fixed the position of Arsene's sling.
"Yet healthy again!" said Ajeng while kissing the right and left cheeks of his best friend.
"Aamiin's."
"Assalamu'alaikum!"
"Wa'alaikumsalam!"
She got out of the room and told her husband to leave.
"Yuk Mas Reza we say goodbye first, because Arsene happened to want to check up again" said Ferdian parting.
"Oh so? Thank you so much for visiting us. Thanks for the card too. Sorry we haven't had time to give you anything."
"Yes, it's okay. Assalamu'alaikum.." replied Ferdian.
"Wa'alaikum..."

Arsene has been examined. All conditions of development are declared good and normal by pediatricians. Ajeng and Ferdian were relieved to hear it. The tiny baby also got a shot of the vaccine this time, making it look more fussy and noisier than ever before. Even so, the doctor has also explained that the baby may be a little fever and fussy so do not worry. Doctors advised her to be given more breast milk and often to reduce her fussiness.
Because of Arsene's rather fussy condition, Ajeng so undoes his intention to go out with her husband today. Even though he really wants to go to the salon and style his hair that already looks messy because it is getting longer. He put on a disappointed face along the way.
"What's wrong with you, honey? How come his face is that lethargic?" asked Ferdian, glancing over from behind his wheel.
"Nothing," answered Ajeng flatly.
"Want to eat out?" tawar Ferdians. But the woman shook her head.
Ferdian began to misbehave his wife to respond that way. He ran out of ideas to make his mood cheerful again.
"You want a way?" asked Ferdian again, trying to explore the wishes of his wife who was breastfeeding her child.
Ajeng. He looked at Arsene, whose eyes were soaked with sleepiness.
"If you want to walk, let's walk now."
"But I'm worried Arsene is fussy!" sergeant Ajeng.
Ferdian so understand the condition of his wife who turned out to want to go for a walk.
"We try it first. If he's fussy, we'll go home! How's it?"
For a moment, I muttered and thought. There is no harm in trying, right? Finally Ajeng nodded steadily. Ferdian was relieved, he smiled.
They chose a large and spacious mall to be the first sightseeing destination with Arsene that afternoon. Fortunately, the stroller is always carried in the car, so they can bring baby Arsene without the hassle of carrying it. Luckily, Arsene remained asleep when she was transferred from her mother's cradle into a stroller that had been given a comfortable pedestal with various trinkets in it. Her cute and white face was so peaceful in sight. Ferdian pushed the baby stroller, while Ajeng held her husband's arm. They also take a walk while washing their eyes through the outlets.
"Darling, I'm going to the salon? My hair is uncomfortable!"
"Yes okay, but don't paint it again?" ferdian Pinta.
"Yes, I won't dye my hair while I'm breastfeeding Arsene."
Ferdian sighed. In fact his deepest heart, he wanted his wife never again to paint his hair. It's even covered up like Karin, wearing a veil. But he doesn't want to find trouble here. Ajeng is still sensitive, so it is better that he obeys his wife's current will first.
Both went to a pretty good salon. Ajeng asked the hairdresser in the salon to cut and tidy his hair a little so as not to exceed the length of his waist. He still likes his long hair.
Ferdian sat in one of the comfortable chairs while watching his son sleep asleep. Sometimes he smiles at the peaceful face of the child. While looking at him, he also thought and wondered, is he able to be a good parent and can be an example for his son? Sometimes he still feels selfish, especially when he is still in college. He can only pay full attention to Arsene at the weekend. The rest on a normal day, he was busy working on his college assignments and scripts. Not to mention the problem of Ajeng, often he envied his son. Because now Ajeng is more concerned with the child than himself, let alone his unfinished breathing. His love interest was temporarily buried. Though only a month had he become an old man, but why is this how he feels. Maybe true, it is true that being a parent cannot learn haphazardly, but learning by process and learning by doing. There are no great parents at once, they learn from their lives little by little, go through the cracks of mistakes and struggle to fix them. He had to work with his wife so that their children could become great people in the future. He hopes not only in the world, but also in the hereafter. But he is self-conscious, has he become a good person for the hereafter?
