Yumna felt a little relieved because Galang was no longer angry often. Maybe because the income is fairly smooth.
They rarely quarrel about ecomony.
A few months after that, a terrible virus attacked Indonesia. Lock down policy is almost applied to all regions of Indonesia, including Bali.
Yumna so worried if later in Bali really applied lock down, how Galang will meet household needs.
" This, for the stock lock down." He said while giving Ten pieces of red money.
" From whom?" Asked Yumna, he was a little surprised because this was the first time Galang gave a lot of money and did not say the thing that made Yumna hurt.
" From me, this is the cost of the ring I worked here yesterday. My brother's boss is going to be off for 14 days. So the money I gave you was saved." Galang
Yumna took it and kept it good. Fourteen days, is not a short time for Yumna, considering the price of basic goods and other staples continue to rise in price.
After saving money well, Galang invited Yumna and Hasna to rest. But before that, Galang decided to take a bath before going to bed.

" Who?" Ask Galang.
" Don't Know."
Yumna who was just lying down immediately got up and immediately opened the door.
Yumna smiled as she opened the door and found out that the one who came was sister-in-law.
" This, from the boss, makes the stock lock down." Said his sister-in-law while handing over a large white plastic bag.
" Thank you, yeah."
" Yes, where is Ilmi?" Ask brother-in-law for a little chat.
" That's sleep, twins don't sound asleep yet huh ?"
" Yes, still a toy." Said Brother-in-law while walking home.
" Thank you Lo."
" Yes." Yeah."
Yumna then brought the plastic bag into the kitchen to see the contents.
" Who?" Ask from the bathroom.
" Mama's a twin, giving her a shot. He said from the boss, make the stock lock down."
" Oh, what's the content?"
" 5kg rice, 1 liter oil, soy sauce and some instant noodles." Yumna said while removing all the items from the plastic bag, and arranging them elsewhere.
" Yes good." Galang.
" Yes Alhamdulillah."
...
During Galang was at home, during that time also Yumna and Galang like newlyweds who almost every day do husband and wife relations.
14 Days passed, but Galang did not get a job.
Yumna was forced to use the existing savings to connect with life, considering Galang who had tried to find a job but did not get it.
" Nda, is the shopping money still there?" Ask Galang one morning.
" Why is it?"
" I guess it's not enough until I get a job?"
" Insylah."
He was silent, I don't know what he was thinking. Maybe he was thinking of something related to finances.
The second morning of April. Yumna felt that something was missing.
" As for this month I haven't come to the moon." Say Yumna while looking for her phone, and see the notes on the menstrual calendar app.
" It's 5 days late."
Yumna was not worried, because since 9 months ago, Yumna decided not to KB anything, or choose natural KB, and to get rations come the month.
Yumna does not have KB is not without reason, because Yumna is not suitable for injectable KB or PIL.
But, for the past three months, the schedule came the month Yumna began to fall apart. And now Yumna relaxed even though she was late for the month for 5 days.
" It's a good thing I still have a supply of moonlighting drugs." Said Yumna who immediately took the medicine.
Three days passed ....
Yumna started to fret. Because he almost spent 2 tablets of menstrual emitting medicine, but he did not come to the moon.
Her night..
It has become a habit, before the coming months when the capsule does not work, then Yumna will buy herbal medicine.
" Not come the moon yet?" Galang asked when Yumna had just come from buying herbs.
" Not yet."
" Yes good dong, means it can still be tapped."
" No ah, we stop before I come to the moon." Yumna.
Fretfulness and uneasiness began to haunt Yumna.
It's been 1 week that he came late. Yumna immediately bought some sprites and one of the drinks commonly consumed before menstruation.
Glek glek.
Yumna felt a hot sensation in her throat and stomach, due to drinking fizzy drinks. Because all this time Yumna can not drink drinks that contain soda. As soon as the drink entered his throat, it would come back out, as if his stomach would not want if the soft drink stopped in Yumna's stomach.
" I should be able to." Yumna said while trying to spend 1 small bottle of sprite.
Galang who always come out in the afternoon, makes Yumna can drink the sprite calmly. Although sometimes Yumna drink sprites at night when Galang sleeps.
Drrrttt drrrttt drrrrttt
Yumna's phone rings.
" Hello Farah?"
" Sister, how's your period?"
" Not yet."
" Try buying xxx herbs at the herbalist store."
" Is?"
" There is, but my mama said, it will make the stomach feel very hot."
" Hmm, okay. I'll try." Later."
" Sister.."
" Yes.."
" When it turns out how pregnant is your sister?" Ask Farah.
" Don't do. If you can't, you're not ready. Given the nature of Gilang which is still unchanged as well as his selfishness that can still appear at any time. And don't you want the fight to happen?."Yumna Light.
" Yes already, I pray big sister isn't pregnant."
" thank you. Later that night, Brother will try to buy your herbs as you said earlier."
" Bye brother."
" Bye.."
..
In the evening, on the grounds of buying Ilmi food, Yumna came out alone, she first stopped by the herbalist shop to buy herbal medicine that was said by Farah.
" There's XXX." Yumna said half a whisper to the herbalist.
" Not come the moon yet?" Ask the seller, while starting to look for the herbs that Yumna meant.
" Not yet."
" This jamu want not?, my wife has also been late 2 weeks. After drinking this straight away menstruation." Said the herbal medicine seller while pointing the package of herbal medicine to Yumna.
" Could be, I take 2, the same herbs I said earlier."
" Okay, wrap it up."
At night, when Galang went to his friend's house. Yumna drank the medicine she had just bought. And hope he'll be there soon.
Right at midnight, Yumna felt a tremendous pain in her stomach.
It feels hot like burning. Yumna with all her might held the heat that seemed to burn all her entrails.
" Hope this is a sign that I'm coming soon to the moon." Yumna.
God, don't let me get pregnant before my family's economy improves. Don't let me have any more children remembering my relationship with Galang that hasn't really improved. May I not get pregnant so that I can work for Ilmi's future. Inner Yumna.
Yumna cried in silence, she was afraid she was pregnant, considering all kinds of herbs had been drunk, but not yet come the moon.
