One month later, Mike and Chila are back together. During that one month as well, Mike stayed at his in-laws' house. And during that time, his relationship with his wife still feels so bland.
But Mike did not give up. He never took heart with his silent attitude of Chila. Because he was self-conscious enough that all this happened because of him.
"Are you going with Mami?" mike asked when he was leaving for the office.
Last night, Chila asked Mike for permission, today he will go with Renata's mom to buy some baby supplies.
Chila's gestational age has begun to enter the age of eight months. To make the parents so enthusiastic to hunt needs. Likewise with Chila who is also impatient to buy her baby equipment.
"So," Chila replied briefly as she nodded her head.
Sometimes, Mike runs out of words. How to thaw Chila's already frozen heart. All sorts of ways he had done, yet the woman was still so cold towards him.
Saddened? Regret and disappointed. Of course Mike felt.
Mike can only nod his head, then he crouches as usual to say goodbye to the baby.
"Be careful" Chila said after Mike was about to get out of the room.
However, just as Mike was about to turn around again, it turned out that Chila was gone. The woman had already entered the walk in closed to avoid Mike.
'Thank you,' mumbled Mike softly and he rushed out of the room and immediately went to the office because this morning he had an important meeting schedule.
"Mike, don't you have breakfast?" ask Anna's mother when she sees Mike say goodbye.
"Not Bun. Mike had an important meeting this morning" Mike answered, kissing the back of Anna's mother and Rasya's father's hands.
"Busy whatever, don't forget to have breakfast. Don't get sick! Remember your wife is pregnant, don't be troublesome!" said Rasya's father without looking at his son-in-law.
Mike knows, even though it's a satire. But the meaning of the word is not like that. Mike smiled, then approached Rasya's father.
"Yes Dad, thank you. Mike left first, Assalamu'alaikum," said Mike then immediately left.
Not long after Mike left. Chila came down with a neat outfit.
"Good morning, Dad.. Mother," said Chila kissing the cheeks of mother and father alternately.
"Dear one, " answered both parents simultaneously.
"What breakfast do you want, hem?" ask Anna's mother, give a glass of pregnant mother's milk to her daughter.
"It's not like Bun. Chila wants breakfast outside with Mami. Yesterday, Mami ngajakin buy soto near the city market!" chila said as she drank her milk.
"Where do you want to shop?" mother Anna asked immediately frowned.
"In the Mall ordinary Bun, but we want to try to buy food outside the Mall. Not far away, the place is behind the Mall pas. Chila arrived to search last night and indeed he said highly recommended!" chila swallowed her saliva as if impatient.
"Alright, but be careful" said Anna's mother a little worried. Although Chila will be going with Renata, who is none other than her birth mother. However, Anna still felt a little worried.
"Mother come along! Mommy wants to join cobain too," said Anna's mother lied a little.
"Says Mommy wants to come with me to Bandung?" chila asked directly frowning her.
"Dad you're old. Just let him go alone, mother wants to try eating out with you. Can't you?" asked Anna with a look on her sad face.
"Eh, not so Mother. Gapapa if Mommy wants to come. It's just, dad—"
"Dad used to go alone! Dad was only briefly in Bandung anyway. At least tomorrow morning or noon has come home" said Rasya's father who was immediately nodded his head by Chila.
Rasya knew that his wife was worried so he let Anna make such an excuse not to hurt Chila.
Because, if Chila knew that Anna was coming because of her lack of trust with Renata. Chila will definitely feel sad and a little offended, perhaps.
