Sharing Love: Winning Without Love
Seasons 2 - The Couvade Syndrom?
The next day was Monday. The day Radit will return to work in his father's office. Unlike the usual day, this morning the man woke up complaining cheerfully to his wife.
"Come on. Mas .. wake up. It's morning, aren't you in the office?" She woke her husband up to get ready for the office.
Reluctant to get up, Radit pulled the blanket. "Bentar Darling .. I feel so sleepy, I care for my body Dear." Complaints with a hoarse voice typical of people waking up.
Khaira was sitting next to her husband's bed, her hands outstretched touching her husband's forehead to check his temperature. But when the hand touched her husband's forehead, it didn't feel like a fever. Her husband's body temperature is normal.
"You want a leave? We can go to the doctor to check. I'm worried, usually you're rarely sick. Or want me a kerokin. Yes, even if the scrapings are just a myth to ease the colds, but if you want, let me crack them."
Radit shook his head and pulled his wife's hand until now his wife fell in his arms. "Hug me honey .. ten minutes yes. Leave it like this." he said with his eyes still closed and hugged his wife so tightly.
"When all night was hugged, the morning was still spoiled. Tumben-tumben anyway Mas .. usually you are diligent in getting up early. Even often you wake up first." she said with her hands wrapped around her husband's waist.
Radit just smiled. "By swerving you like this, my cry heals dear. Missing Valentines, cheerful." he said as he chuckled amusedly.
Khaira hit her husband's chest. "Mode sure. Early in the morning it was modulated. Yes, wake up yuk Mas .. I bathe Arsyila first and make breakfast" she said while breaking her husband's embrace.
"Hmm, yes ..barely I woke up again" he said choosing to close his eyes and pull back the blanket.
While Khaira just smiled and shook her head looking at her husband's behavior that morning looked strange. Leaving her husband, Khaira then woke Arsyila, then bathed Arsyila, after completing Khaira continued her activities in the kitchen.
"Ma ... Papa where's Ma?" asked Arsyila who asked the whereabouts of her Papa, because her Papa was still not visible to her nose.
"Maybe it's still in the room, dear Syila. Ask me to call you Papa can?" the question is to ask Arsyila for help.
The little girl nodded her head. "Come Ma ... Syila went upstairs to call Papa."
Just now Arsyila went upstairs to call her Papa, it turns out that Arsyila shouted to her Mama. "Ma ... Papa is sick, Ma." It was his scream that made Khaira leave her activities in the kitchen and then quickly climb the stairs.
As soon as she got into the room, she saw her husband standing in front of the sink and trying to spit out his entrails. With a swift look, Khaira stood behind her husband and stomped his back slowly.
"You why the hell Mas? Yesterday's feeling was healthy now even vomit like gini" she said worried to her husband.
Rinsing her husband's face after vomiting, Khaira then took a tissue to wipe her husband's mouth.
"Thank you Darling .. You're very attentive. I just threw up. You're not disgusted?" she asked by wiping her lips with a tissue.
Khaira shook her head. "You are my husband, you are my priest, you are the one I have always loved so I am not disgusted by you. How's body?" tanyanya is still worried because of the sudden change in her husband's condition.
"It's okay, it's just a cold" he said.
Both of them came out of the bathroom and Syila was waiting on the bed. "What pain does Pa?" The panic was also clearly imprinted on Arsyila's pretty face.
Arsyila looked at her Papa's face, then hugged her. "Get well soon Papa...."
"Thank you the beauty of Papa ..." he replied while hugging Arsyila with affection.
Seeing her husband and son, Khaira smiled. Then he intends to go down for a while. Make something that can relieve the carefree and nausea experienced by her husband.
Only five minutes later, Khaira returned to the top and brought warm ginger and eucalyptus oil.
"Jahe warm Mas .. let nausea subside. Same I olesin eucalyptus oil in your stomach huh."
Seeing her mother carrying eucalyptus oil, Arsyila also came down from her Papa's lap. "Syila, got some telon oil Ma ... Syila takein for Papa. Let Papa recover." he said so funny that he wanted to get telon oil for his Papa.
Khaira laughed then started pouring a few drops of eucalyptus oil into her palm, then rubbed it into her husband's stomach.
Seeing the attention given by Khaira, Radit smiled. "Thank you very dear .. surely my stomach is so delicious" he said thank you while gently rubbing the top of his wife's head.
Khaira was still rubbing her husband's stomach, then looking at his face. "Morning nausea like morning sickness is Mas" he said while pursing his lips.
Hearing Khaira's words, Radit then scrunched his forehead. "Don't you.." he stifled, then he looked at his wife's face.
"Darling, wait .. When was the last time you got one?" tanyanya.
Khaira seemed to think, when was the last time she had a menstrual period. Immediately Khaira took his phone that was on the nightstand checking a calendar in the fertility application there.
The woman's eyes also widened. "Eh, it's too late Mas. Well, how is it, Mas?" he panicked because he was two weeks late.
Unlike Radit, the man smiled and stretched out his arms to embrace his wife's body. "Here is my dear." he said, hugging his wife so tightly.
Then he broke his embrace for a moment and looked at his wife's face. "How to know .. Here there's another baby darling. His sister Arsyila is growing inside here" he said slowly as he stroked his wife's flat stomach.
Hearing the words of her husband and herself who were also late, Khaira tried to digest what happened. Then she looked at her husband's face. "Did you get couvade syndrome Mas? Pregnancy symptoms commonly experienced by men. Could it?"
Radit giggled and hugged his wife again. "Maybe it's a darling ... You want a check? I bought a test pack for a while at the pharmacy just down the road. Wanna?"
Shaking his head, but Khaira was anxious. Indeed, all this time he did not install contraception, and if pregnant again he had to re-adapt. Especially now that she already has Arsyila, it is certain that if she is really pregnant then the second pregnancy will be different.
"Tomorrow in the morning try Mas .. but I'm not sure. I am in good health. I don't feel weird in my body" she said with her eyes staring at the calendar on her phone app against the pink background.
Radit just tightened his embrace. "You are in good health, dear .. we wait for the results tomorrow yes, hopefully baby candidates are growing here. Arsyila let her have adek and she was not sad after separating from Aksara. I'm sure this baby God sent to comfort Arsyila."
