Tama And Ratna
18. Big News

This morning Ratna left with Bu Rosa and Deva to the base to pick up the returning troops from duty in Aceh. Ratna purposely wore an oversize outfit and coated it with an outer. He wanted to tell me this directly. Let Tama know directly as well. Ratna was already waiting at the base near the airfield along with the other mothers.

Ratna watched as Tama walked down from the plane and directly marched in front of their commander. Tama is the one who reports. It felt very proud that Ratna saw Tama standing gallantly in front of the troops. He stood in respect of the commander and reported the condition of his current soldiers as well as being the representative receiving survivors of having completed the mission well.

Finished with the welcoming ceremony, they disbanded. Tama walked up to Ratna but did not directly embrace Ratna as the other husbands did to their wives and children. Tama first paraded about 3 steps, then respect and report to Ratna.

"Report, Pratama Aji has returned safely" Tama said.

"Report I received, thank you for coming home safely Mas," Ratna said as she spread her arms.

Tama immediately hugged Ratna let go of her longing after almost 3 months of not meeting this wife.

"Mas, I have a gift for you" Ratna said. Tama looked puzzled as Ratna immediately let go of her embrace and directly reached into her jacket pocket. Ratna shows Tama something that she is not sure what it is but from what she knows the photo that Ratna gave is a photo of the results of USG.

"What's this?" ask Ratna.

"Now, Baby Ji. See right? Your son is Mas" Ratna said, making Tama speechless. It took him a few seconds to digest Ratna's sentence and he realized what Ratna meant.

"Huh?"

"Oh my God, you don't realize that my stomach is this big? It's been 15 weeks" Ratna said, stroking her stomach.

Tama immediately laughed and turned around and immediately shouted, "I'll be a father...!!!" His shouting.

"Astagfirullah Mas don't shout ah shy..," Ratna tried to silence Tama but already they both have become the center of attention now. Even Tama's superiors congratulated the two of them.

"Ahh tau ah Mas Tama was timid.", Ratna said then walked away from Tama.

"Ehh..., ehh.., how am I left on deck? You're here to pick me up instead, here you are, baby" said Tama as she chased after Ratna who started walking out of the field.

When they got home, Tama immediately told the house. First to Mom and Dad and then to Mom. From Father and Mother they get saved, even Mother began to plan this it. From those who say they will buy a corset, clothes are supplements and so forth and even give tips for Ratna. It was different when Tama told Mama. I don't know who got the incitement, but Mama instead questioned whose child Ratna was born with. Though all this time Mama is also excited to quickly get a grandchild, but once Ratna became pregnant she was even questioned. Ratna could even hear Mama's words directly because Tama was indeed loudspeaker her call.

Tama did not want to hear it more decided to directly turn off her phone. Ratna walked up to him, then stood in front of Tama who was sitting limp on the sofa. She was still shocked by her own mother's statement.

"Just be honest with me, you have doubts too?" ratna asked with a pretty serious look.

Tama shook her head then got up to her feet, "I can't possibly hesitate. He's obviously my son. You said you were 15 weeks old. Ratna I'm gone even less than 3 months. It means that before I left you were pregnant but we were not aware. Obviously he's my son, here I am," said Tama as she led Ratna closer to the calendar hanging on the wall.

"Nih, I even still want to know when I'm related to you. If you look at the date this is likely, the 13th. Tragedy show off your BH," said Tama.

"Eh...? What...? Anu, bentar...., bentar..., Mas inget? How can? Hah bentar this I am a barren until I forget or how the hell," said Ratna Gagu.

"Mas really wants all the same moments as you Ratna. This is really Mas inget, after receiving the test results that you are showing off to buy a new BH. Was willing to drag Mas to the room even already dragged to the hospital first because handle the victims of the accident, continued the next night you deliberately changed clothes in front of Mas just for the sake of showing off. We do not sleep when we forget, there is no way Ratna. Even Mas still want you to get angry in the morning because the vegetables of one stale pot forget diangetin," said Tama who remembered it to the smallest detail.

"I'm still not sure this is what I married her brain is made of what the hell you can inget gini-rich trivial things," Ratna said while shaking.

"Bu doctor is not self-conscious, his brain is more diluted than mine. Later Ratna, the same moment you as small as it will never be Mas lupain. Because what? Love you, love you, love you. You are the greatest source of happiness now and ever."

"How about baby Ji?" ratna asked while stroking her stomach.

Tama followed her, she placed her big hand on Ratna's stomach and lowered her head only to land a kiss there, "Baby Ji, like Mother Nana, these two people are the source of my happiness, she said, the source of Dad's happiness and life spirit," Tama said, made Ratna smile at him.

Just as Tama and Ratna were about to get closer, Ratna's phone rang, prompting Ratna to push Tama away so she could step up to grab her phone.

"Lose again," Tama said as she punched the air.

"Mas.., Mama's on the phone. How am I supposed to do?" ask Ratna.

"Have a deck, let Mas do the talking" Tama said as she walked towards him.

"Fear Mas..," whined Ratna.

"Not to be afraid, I'm here."

Ratna then swiped the green icon for her phone to come in. Not until the phrase greeting Ratna finished he said, Mama had raised many questions to Ratna made him sit down just like that. After all who is not hurt accused of guilt when he did nothing.

"Mama if the phone is only to anger his wife Tama mending do not need a phone call. Mama made my wife cry to know?!" said Tama just grabbed Ratna's phone that started crying.

"How come you're still relaxed about him being your wife anyway? Didn't you ask her how she got pregnant? You've been away for months to go home see your wife is already pregnant rich so do not suspect. Don't be stupid Tama" said Mama.

"Ma, Ratna was even pregnant before I left. Do you think he betrayed or not? Obviously not Ma, I even dare say Ratna is loyal to her husband. There will be no other man in his heart but me."

"You've been blinded by Tam's love until you can't think clearly" Mama said, then immediately turned off the call unilaterally.

Tama put Ratna's phone on the table and then she refocused on Ratna who was seen holding back her cries, "Don't be held dear, will be sick," said Tama made Ratna's cries spill over. Tama immediately hugged her, drowning Ratna in her arms. Tama did not try to calm him down. She let Ratna let go of her heartache so that at least her heart could calm down.

"Shtt.., do not be detained but do not lose also gini dong. Poor baby Ji, Ratna." said Tama.

"My stomach hurts.." whispered Ratna.

"It will be a cry, later it will be sicker. Yes, calm yuk istighfar Ratna," said Tama.

Tama let go of her embrace and walked to the kitchen to get a glass of water for Ratna so she could feel a little calmer. Tama didn't say anything, she felt Ratna was in need of calm right now. Tama just sat quietly next to Ratna who leaned her head on Tama's shoulder. Tama's left hand wrapped around Ratna's narrow shoulder while her right hand stroked her stomach slowly. Tama saw Ratna withstanding the pain, she also felt Ratna's stomach stiffen. Tama continued to try to calm Ratna down without saying anything. Only calming actions could he take at this moment.

"Don't work first, today rest with Mas yes at home," said Tama embraced Ratna who secured her position and slowly closed her eyes. Slowly Ratna who felt relaxed fell asleep. Tama did not attempt to untie the link. He intends to close his eyes and meet Ratna in a dream.
