"maybe later"
I agreed to Louis' proposal to ask Elio and his parents' story directly to Elisha
than waiting for Louis to tell the story
can be curious old me
I again noticed Elio who easily remembered and read every single hijaiyah letter there
"Elio, say Bismillahi Ar-Rahmani Ar-Rrahimi"
"Bismillahiyohmaniyohim"
is Elio unable to read "R" eloquently......?, when speaking in English I can hear it clearly and I can understand the words.
is it because this is not English, so he cannot speak fluently....?
I became curious how Elio when speaking in Indonesian whose pronunciation of "R" is very clear
it seems like it must be tried, Astagfirullah, forgive the jail nature of Zu, O Allah
"can you read this...?"
I asked with eyes sparkling with hope, I was very curious to where this adorable toddler learned to teach him what he called "pastel" earlier, do not say if Elio also can not say "ng".....?
it is an important part of the word in Indonesian
even "important" is to use "ng" at the end he said
"fa to" I almost burst out my laughter as Elio read "qo" with the reading "to"
don't forget his lips that advanced a few centimeters
is it that hard....?
"don't get on the ledek"
Louis rebuked me as I tried hard to hide my laughter
"i'm not just funny"
I tried to avoid even though Louis was not entirely wrong, because there was a little bit of a desire to laugh very loudly when I heard how Elio was trying hard to get the word out of his tiny lips
"good job"
unlike me who tried to resist anxiety, Louis instead gave praise for the hard work of Elio, good Daddy
I don't want to lose, I did the same
"so smart, I love you"
a sincere kiss I put on Elio's tiny head
"tired, Daddy"
Elio turned to face Louis and handed the tablet in his tiny hand to Louis
and that made me no longer able to hold back the laughter when I saw how Elio seemed to wipe the sweat on his forehead with his tiny hands, even though the forehead was still dry
"hahahaha, Masha Allah is tired, son of Mommy"
I tried to follow the play he was playing by wiping his dry forehead with my hands that were still trembling as I raised a bit high
I desperately wanted to lift her up and hold her, but my hands were not strong enough to carry out my intentions
"Mommy, thirsty"
Elio dropped his head and lay down on my stomach while I asked Louis for help to make milk and breakfast for Elio
"can you please make some milk and breakfast Elio...?"
besides I can't make food and milk for Elio given my impossible condition, I'm actually confused what food this toddler would eat in the morning....?
without saying much Louis went straight to the big bag containing Elio equipment and took a special drinking bottle filled with milk powder in it and also a small bowl complete with a fork and spoon
I tried to learn what food Louis had prepared for Elio
he made the milk with hot water and stirred it for a while, before adding the water to the room temperature in the dispenser
Louis went to the table in front of the sofa and took a piece of bread, after which Louis put some strawberries and put them in a bowl
it reflects the typical Western breakfast menu
if Indonesians eat breakfast, rice, no debate!
"here"
Louis pulled a special table that the patient used to put food on and pushed him closer
"sit down"
I asked Elio to straighten up his body which was casually falling on my lap
"with Mommy"
Elio refused as Louis was about to put his food bowl and milk bottle right in front of him
even her tiny hands tried to lift the bowl with trembling hands and put it on my lap
louis quickly picked it up before the bowl and spilled the milk
"with Daddy ok, Mommy can't do that, see Mommy's hands, they are hurt"
Louis tried to explain to Elio that his lips were already advancing, he almost cried
"don't cry, my little Aslan, Mommy Will help you later, um..?
Elio did not cry even though a tear had dripped, he resignedly faced Louis, and snatched the fork that Louis was holding
I almost laughed if I didn't feel sorry for the toddler whose story this morning was sulking
"Mommy aaak"
Elio stuck out a fork that had been stuck in strawberries on it towards me
"Bismillah"
doubtfully and timidly I bribed the fruit into my mouth and ate it
the sour and sweet taste that became one immediately spread in my mouth to make me close my eyes and raise my shoulders
the sour taste doesn't match my tongue!
astagfirullah
"haha"
Elio carelessly let go of his shrill laughter until he woke up another occupant of this beautiful room
"morning, good morning everyone"
Leora greeted with a cheerful smile even though her eyes were still swollen and puffy after waking up
"good morning"
"morning"
we answered compactly, even Elio to prancing gleefully
"where's Leo....?"
Leora asked the whereabouts of her twin sister while walking straight towards the bathroom
it made me confused and wrong to answer it
it's called dilemma
if I answer later Leora asks with the next question while her position is in the bathroom
if I don't answer it, I don't feel good either
I glanced at Louis who looked relaxed petrified to bribe fruit to eat Elio
"Elio say, Bismillah"
"Bismillah"
elio voraciously bribed strawberries in large sizes with little difficulty when biting the fruit because of its larger size than the strawberry in general
I was stunned by Elio's expression that showed no signs of change except for a serious-looking facial expression when he inserted large pieces of strawberry into his small mouth
too focused on paying attention to Elio makes me forget to answer Leora's questions until the one who asked out of the bathroom
"so, where's Leo.....?"
Leora asked again after approaching us and scooped up one strawberry in Elio's bowl
"no mine, aunty!!, uuuaaaaaaa"
Elio who did not receive his food was taken by Leora sobbing loudly before throwing the empty bowl at Leora
the bowl was caught by Louis before hitting Leora who had dodged and sauntered towards the sofa, not forgetting the activity back to try Elio by sticking his tongue scoffing at Elio which made him scream louder
"yyyyyyyyyyy"
"Leora!"
Louis rebukes Leora who is still trying to Elio who is increasingly shouting loudly, Elio has even prepared to throw the milk bottle if not held by Louis
"Daddy, evil aunty, uuuuaaaa"
with the spirit of Elio pitting Leora against Louis, do not forget the red eyes and tears that have flowed
"it's ok, Daddy Will punish her"
Louis promises to hit Leora for trying to get Elio
"now Daddy, now!"
Elio impatiently pulled Louis by the hand, and he quickly climbed over the lap of Louis, who was sitting on my bed
her tiny hands were tightly coiled around Louis' neck, her tiny legs stomping in an impatient motion
"Daddy, now"
he pointed towards Leora who was still nailing him by sticking out her tongue and other mocking movements
I'm just here watching and trying to calm Elio down with my lips tightly closed
not what, if I talk a little, which is not soothing maybe I will spout laughter that I have been enduring since
Louis stood closer to Leora and gave her a feigned blow that was responded to by a feigned cry by Leora
"aw, it's hurt"
Leora pretended to be in pain with a slightly exaggerated expression in my opinion
it made Elio laugh
baby drama is always adorable
"breakfast" time"
leo's voice caught the attention of those who were now doing revenge scenes with Leora as the victim
