After one day, Bisma really kept her promise. This afternoon he brought his wife and his little baby back to their apartment. This time there is also Mother Hesti who accompanied their return from the Hospital to the apartment of Bisma.
“You should just sit in a wheelchair first, Naya .. let Mother carry Aksara. Post-Caesarean section if too much movement can actually make you sicker.” Mother Hesti explained to her daughter-in-law.
Kanaya nodded, she immediately sat in the wheelchair provided by the Hospital. “Why Naya is just like a sick person huh Mommy?” the woman laughed, and felt like she was sitting in a wheelchair like a sick person.
“It's okay, you are sick .. postpartum pain,” replied Mother Hesti who also laughed.
“Iya, yes ... Naya is in pain because she was the victim Mas Bisma,” her candle this time that made her husband reject both eyes.
“What do you mean Honey?” asked Bisma who seemed to disagree with his wife's words.
Kanaya just laughed, “I remember the time to Johor Bahru when I was still in Batam first, I was in Johor Bahru, in Malaysia the name of the Hospital Mother and Child or Hospital was maternity it was called ‘Hospital Victims Men.’ Funny.” laughter Kanaya was as if exploding considering the funny and unique name of Maternity Hospital in the Negeri Negara.
Finally, Bisma also laughed, “O ..., that is true anyway. So you're my victim, huh?” ask again to his wife.
“In indirect, I am your victim anyway, Mas,” he replied again.
“Not a victim also dong, right I take full responsibility to you. If you are a victim, how does it feel like I am a criminal,” said Bisma while frowning his forehead. The man was still pushing the wheelchair occupied by Kanaya.
While Mother Hesti smiled following the two, in her heart Mother Hesti always prayed that the fabric of love and the household of both will always be happy, she said, there is no sadness and the birth of the Aksara further enliven the household life of Bisma and Kanaya.
Until finally, Bhishma slowly carried Kanaya and sat her in the back seat together with Mother Hesti who was still holding Aksara. Kanaya's face was flushed because she was so embarrassed to be treated so sweetly by her own husband.
“Mas, shame,” he said with red cheeks.
“Nothing.” Bisma said as she entered her steering chair and started to run her car slowly.
“You guys why don't you go home to Daddy and Mommy first? Let someone help take care of Aksara.” Mother Questioned Hesti to Bhishma and Kanaya.
Bisma then glanced at Kanaya's face from the rearview mirror in front, “There are already missed the same room, Bun ..”
Kanaya then lowered her head, completely embarrassed because her husband answered so clearly to Mother Nesti. Kanaya slowly looked at Mother Nesti.
“Sorry Mother .. It's just that, Naya wants to learn and enjoy the time of being a Mother for Aksara. However, later if there is anything, Naya will ask for help from Anyangnya.”
Mother Hesti also nodded, as a parent and also a mother of course Mother Hesti knew that the first experience to care for and care for the baby was very born. For that Mother Hesti also accepted the decision of her daughter-in-law. “Oke, fine .. but, you guys don't get bored because Eyang Putri and Eyang Kakunya will often visit your apartment to play with this cute Grandchild of Eyang.”

Once he arrived at the apartment, Kanaya's face looked so happy to be able to return to the place that was her home. A place that makes it comfortable and quiet. Now the square-shaped room will be more vibrant with the cries and laughter of Aksara, their baby.
“But her Father Aksara,” she answered by tightly grasping her husband's hand as if to lead him to walk it.
“Please enter Eyang Daughter Aksara,” said Kanaya who also invited Mother Hesti to enter her apartment.
The middle-aged woman laughed with silly behavior from the child and his daughter-in-law. Then, Mother Hesti put Aksara to sleep in the baby box that was on the side of the Bisma and Kanaya beds. After that, Mother Westi took out various foods from the lunch box that she had brought from home.
“Naya, this Mother has cooked for you. There is Chicken and Vegetable Soup, fried tempeh, and some fruit. Eat a lot ya Honey let your feet healthy and your ASI smoothly.” While Mother Hesti put various boxes of supplies that kitchen.
“Wah, thank you very much Mother .. Naya will definitely spend,” she replied with sparkling eyes looking at the various dishes that Mother Nesti brought.
Then Mother Nesti took out something else from her bag, “This is a special biscuit for pregnant and breastfeeding women, you can eat as a snack. Mommy brings also ASI Booster which is rich in katuk leaves, so that your ASI production is smooth and abundant.”
“Still very Mother, good to be Naya huh. Her father-in-law was a Midwife and her husband was a Pediatrician. Naya was very happy,” chirps that made Mother Nesti laugh and pinch her daughter-in-law's arm.
“Ya already .. You get a break soon yes. When the characters sleep, mending you come to sleep, rest. Just in case the night he wakes up and invites him to stay up. Because until the age of 40 days later the pattern of his life can be arranged. Now she still follows the rhythm as long as she is still in the womb.” Mother Hesti explained again to her daughter-in-law.
Kanaya also listened to the explanation from Mother Nesti by nodding. A new lesson for him as a new parent, of course Kanaya will remember him.

The next day, when Kanaya had just breastfed Aksara. Busui sat on the edge of his bed by observing the face of his sleeping baby. There was still a sense of disbelief now there was the figure of a little angel before her eyes that was so cute and adorable.
“Why do you keep seeing Honey?” bisma asked the woman who had just come out of the bathroom.
Kanaya shook her head slowly, “Nggak. For a few days, she was still in my womb and now I can see her in person. I'm happy.”
Bisma then slightly lowered her head and looked at her sleeping baby's face, “I'm also happy ... The first time I heard her crying voice and saw her face after birth, it felt like I was instantly in love with her. She is my world.” The man spoke with all his heart.
Yes, the birth of Aksara seemed to completely change his life and since then Aksara is his world. The world is small, but he must fill it with various provisions for the life of his son to the future.
“He is also my world, Mas .. same as you, in my small world I have you and also Aksara.” Kanaya answered her husband's words with her hands slowly moving and grasping her husband's hand which was at that time on the edge of the baby box.
The man smiled and tightened his hand, “You are also my world .. with Aksara,” he replied. “I will protect you both with my life. Making sure you two live a comfortable, peaceful, and happy life with me, by my side.” Bisma spoke so seriously.
Kanaya nodded, the woman then wrapped her hands around her husband's waist, “Thank you for loving both of us and taking care of both of us. And so must Father who is also happy with us. Don't just put my happiness and comfort and character first, but Dad should also be happy and comfortable living with us.”
“Definitely. Of course I will always be happy with you two,” replied Bhishma this time.
That is a family that should be equally happy. Not one is responsible for the other. Each family member should be happy and comfortable living together in a place called home. A place to build love, a place to grow, a place to bestow all emotions is home. Same is the case with Bhishma, Kanaya, and Aksara who will also start a new chapter in his life by becoming a parent. This time the happiness of the two of them seemed to spill, both of them seemed not to know that it was possible that the Owner of the Universe would again give dark clouds and storm exposure to them in the days to come.
