The Childish Husband
Spoilage

Bu Eni left the 3-year-old at Ben and Lestari's house. Ben clucked in annoyance upon learning of the little boy's presence. He doesn't like children. In fact, inevitably, in a few months he will also have a child.

"Where will the child sleep?" asked Ben in a annoyed tone. Moreover, the little boy began to whine this and that when only a few minutes with them.

"He slept with us, Beben." Lestari seemed to be trying to comfort the little boy so as not to fuss.

"No, I don't want to sleep with the three of them." Ben started whining. He and the little boy, it doesn't seem to make any difference.

"Yes, this little boy wants to be allowed to sleep alone, Ben. Are you the heart?" Lestari was confused.

"Tega," said Ben lightly. He is still playing the PlayStation he just bought. His gaze focused on the flat screen in front of him.

"No, dong, Beben. We have a child soon too." Indeed, from the beginning, the purpose he wanted to keep the baby of his neighbor was none other than and not because he wanted to learn to take care of children.

"But our child will be funny, this child is not funny at all" said Ben. The little boy did look thin with curly hair and was black. There's nothing funny in Ben's eyes.

"Guus!" sternly Lestari reminded. "Beben can't do that! All children are the same, to be loved, to be cared for, okay?"

"P-thin," chirped the little one in an almost inaudible voice. It looks uncomfortable. Probably because of hearing Ben's words. A 3-year-old knows what adults are talking about.

"Thin? Want to pee?" ask Lestari carefully. In his heart, he was also thinking how to deal with the little boy who wanted to throw urine.

The boy nodded. His eyes looked like fear. In addition to hearing Ben's words that seemed not to accept him, he was also very foreign to Ben and Lestari.

"Ouch, Beben. How's this?" lestari. He really had no idea of facing a situation like this.

"Some of you anyway, brother, why would you want to be told to take care of the child?" Not helping his wife, Ben just corner the woman he has hamili.

"You peed" said the boy once more. It was as if he had been holding it back from earlier.

"Darling, can you pee yourself?" Lestari made sure first, with great expectations the boy said 'yes'.

However, unlike what he wanted, the little boy shook his head, leaving Lestari bewildered to death.

"Beben! Bantuin, dong," Pinta Lestari's. She needs to be with her husband.

"No way, my brother himself," he said while still playing his new toy.

Lestari scratched her non-itchy head. He looked at the innocent child. "Yes, baby, let's go to the bathroom."

Arriving in the room, the little boy then followed the door so that he separated himself from Lestari. Making Lestari even more guessing and worried.

"Darling? How closed?" asked Lestari with anxious feelings. He kept knocking on the bathroom door.

Shortly after, the boy came out with a sense of relief because he had brought out what he could bear. "Had," he said slowly. Make Lestari also relieved to hear it.

Now, the little boy asked for sleep. His eyes looked sleepy. Then Lestari took the boy up to the bed.

"Don't use my pillow!" reprimand Ben when he sees the little boy landing his head on Ben's pillow. There were only two pillows there. One belongs to Ben, one belongs to Lestari.

Because of the words of the husband, Lestari also sought one more pillow specifically for the little boy. He searched in another room, there happened to be a smaller size. It will definitely make the child more comfortable with this pillow. He placed the pillow in the middle of his pillow and the pillow of his husband.

"Well, here's the pillow. Here my darling, we're sleeping, yeah." Lestari was so friendly with the boy. He hugged and patted slowly with the child's thigh to make it comfortable.

Ben glances. Stop the activity for a moment. "Sister?" call him to his wife. "I want to, too," he said, shutting down the PlayStation.

"Yes here," replied Lestari. Now the little boy is flanked by Ben and Lestari. They are like a complete family.

Lestari's gaze did not shift from the face of the little boy. He imagined if he had children. While Ben from earlier still showed a sullen face.

"Sister?" call him. "You hug too" said Ben in a very spoiled tone.

"Well, I can't, Beben" said Lestari in a soft voice, worried that the little boy's eyes were open again.

"I want to be next to you." Without waiting for long, Ben turned to his wife. Make the little boy on the side.

Lestari's worried. "Si dedek so on the sidelines if this is how it falls?"

Without answering anything, Ben hugged Lestari's body tightly. It felt like Ben was jealous of the little boy. He is not willing if Lestari's attention is directed to other than himself.

Occasionally, Ben kisses his wife's chubby cheek. Ben felt very comfortable in this position. The three of them finally fell asleep even though actually this is not so late to sleep.

***

Early in the morning, Lestari was out of bed. The little girl's body that had been pinned to her since last night, was brought closer to Ben. So that the child does not move beyond the edge of the bed. Although not so flexible, but Lestari did it with all her heart, like her own child.

The woman then washed her face and brushed her teeth, then stepped into the kitchen. Cooking with ingredients in the refrigerator. There are only sausages, nuggets, and eggs. But, according to him, a child would like it. Not to forget, he also made fried rice.

It presents the food as a character face, with a basic face derived from egg whites, eyes from circularly sliced sausages, and a mouth from nuggets carved into a smile.

When he finished, he found the little boy was already sitting on the bed with a glum look. It was obvious he remembered his parents. Lestari hugged for a moment to calm down, then invited the little boy to the dining table.

"Eat first, yeah, honey." Lestari sat the little boy down. He began to bribe her.

"I can eat alone, Auntie." The little boy started talking. Maybe because after being hugged Lestari all night, it became comfortable.

Suddenly Ben came.
