Since the birth of Malika. Rajasa adapts to the existing situation.
Sleeping alone in their room while Edelweis with Malika in his room.
Have their own world. Rajasa with his work and me his time. Edelweiss with Malika.
They are like two people who are in one house but have separate lives.
Malika herself is very sticky with Edelweis. Can't be separated from her mother for long. He would immediately whine and cry loudly if he did not smell and or feel the presence of his mother. A smell he knew very well.
Rajasa and their house assistants could not help Edelweis much in taking care of Malika.
Edelweis himself was not concerned about his daily life. All the time is for Malika.
"If you can't manage it then our married life will fall apart too." Rajasa tries to advise his wife.
"You must not be selfish! Malika needs me."
"I know! But I need you too. Malika herself doesn't want me to hold on too long. Our housekeeper was rejected. Look at your situation. You have no other life than Malika. There's me, your job as a secretary, your social life and your time besides of course, Malika herself."
Edelweis cried hysterically, "Don't push me. Confuses me. My priority is Malika."
"It's very hard to talk to you. You should try to set it up."
"I can't! You saw for yourself how he. She wants nothing but me, my breast and breast. He can only be weaned after two years."
"What do you mean two years? You're gonna be like this for two years?" Rajasa complained, "You don't know what I'm going through after you give birth. You're just thinking about Malika. There's no me or anything on your mind. That selfish one is you!"
"Why is selfish so me?"
"You're a secretary used to organise anything. Cook set your own son can't? Just tell me you don't love me anymore. You don't want to share your life with me!"
"You mustn't go too far!" Edelweis ascended the apoplexy hearing Rajasa's words.
"I try to understand and accept your condition after giving birth but I can't keep doing this."
"Let's give Malika the formula."
"How can I give him the formula when he doesn't want me to hold on?"
"You just can't hold him. You blame me for something else. You just have to be patient as I was patient to lose everything during that time span. Do it for me and Malika. If you want to beat your ego you can do the same with me."
"Why are you so fucked up after giving birth?"
"It may be like a mother whose child suffers from a certain disease or is paralyzed so her mother has to take care of her twenty-four hours."
"You mean, Malika really needs you right now?"
"Yes." Yeah." The tears of Edelweis flowed.
"Don't cry."
"It seems I'm depressed. But there's nothing I can do."
"I thought you needed me time."
"I have no energy or energy but to take care of Malika. Me my time is my bedtime."
"Yeah! You need sleep. Your situation is very messed up. Malika's sleeping hours are reversed. He suckles and staves at you all the time."
"Malica is very good. He's not malnourished. Slightly overweight but not too overweight. Growth is also normal. I followed every phase of his growth well."
"It looks like you can only take care of Malika right now."
"Yes, I have no other choice. I'm asking you to support me. If you can't help, don't don't want to. Give me some support."
Rajasa grabbed his wife's body. Hugged it and kissed it.
Edelweis cried in her husband's arms, "I also miss our moments together. Spending time together. My occupation. Me time and my social life. But right now, all my life and energy is for Malika. Not besides that including you. I'm sorry."
The changes that happened to them after the birth of their daughter were certainly not easy for both of them to live with.
They can play a new role with more or less everything.
But their romance as a couple evaporates with no residuals.
Rajasa is busy working while Edelweis is busy taking care of Malika. Rajasa needs refreshing out of the house while Edelweis needs sleep as a refreshing that can refresh it again.
Monthly shopping becomes Rajasa's new task. Usually they do both but because Malika desperately needs the attention of Edelweis. Rajasa did it alone.
Shopping makes it more fresh just the list of groceries that Edelweis entrusted very much.
Rajasa enters the hypermarket that is his mainstay and Edelweis for shopping. He took out a list from his sling bag.
Pampers is on the first list. He walked to the pampers. A familiar voice greeted him.
"Sir!"
Rajasa looked towards the voice, "Nurmala?"
"We'll see you again." Answer with a big smile.
"You're with your son and your neighbor?"
"I'm alone."
"What are you doing here?"
"You shop pampers. Get voucher. It's good to add to my son's diaper supplies. What are you doing yourself?"
"Monthly shopping. This is a list of my wife."
"Let me help sir."
"No, I can do it myself."
"The list is a lot. Like there's me, let me just get his stuff into the trolley for you."
"Hmm, maybe. If it's not a hassle."
"No, sir! Just calm! Where's list?"
Rajasa handed over his shopping list to his new secretary.

"OKs. Thank you, yeah."
"I'll help you get to the car."
"No need. I usually ask for help."
"Nothing, I help and the rest ask for help. Because there's so much to buy."
"You brought your own groceries."
"It's okay, sir." Secretary insists.
Rajasa is assisted by a secretary and three hypermarket staff who help him carry the trolleys. Each one carries a trolley.
Arriving in the car. After all the stuff is put in his trolley. Rajasa gave tips to all of them. Nurmala's turn, refuse.
"No need, sir."
"It's okay, it's for you."
"No need, sir! Yep!" Nurmala turned her back to pass before Rajasa.
"I'm getting you home."
"No need, sir!"
"Come on!" Rajasa pulls Nurmala's hand.
