The Former Cassanova
The Four Monthly Plan
“Abang, try geh earlier my stomach twitches.” Ririn placed Deka's hand on her stomach.
“Mana, how not to feel, Which?” lontar Deka a few moments later. He put his ear to Ririn's stomach.
“Means who can feel the movement of the Akachan, I doang. Her daddy's not.”
“Cheat, ih! Time to make both of them, you doang feel.” Deka re-strengthened her body.
“Quiet, Brother, this is a small one. Mimin said that it was getting bigger, the movement will be more agile and more powerful. He said he would like the non-bulb in the stomach."
“Ga patiently wishes to meet Akachan. Hi, honey, get big fast inside. Eat a lot of Mommy Laper keep eating and eat a lot." Deka kissed Ririn's stomach.
“Oh Yes, Bang. It's ‘kan want four months. We want to make a four-month anniversary event not?”
“As far as you are, Yang. Brother ‘kan just this time want to have children, so do not understand. If there is usually such an event, yes we just hold.”
“Continue holding where is the show? Here in Serang, what in Subang?”
“If necessary in the three places it turns also can.”
“Emm. I talked to Mama and Mama. Tomorrow can you take me to Mama's house?”
“Can dong, all brothers leave for work tomorrow.”
“Oke.”
Ririn closed her body to Deka. “Abang don't want to see Akachan?” tanyanya while her nose snarl-dusel on the chest of Deka.
Since pregnancy, it is precisely Ririn who is more active ‘ask’. While Deka, otherwise ‘requested’ prefers not to do it. He was very worried about the prospective child in the stomach of the wife. Not want because of his actions, will endanger the safety of the baby.
The frequency of conjugal relations has decreased since Ririn was declared pregnant. In one month, at most three or four times they do it. It was only one round.
“If you want, come on.”
Deka hugged Ririn's body and then what happened was supposed to happen.
The next day, Deka drove Ririn to Mama's house before leaving for work.
“Yang, later return home in the afternoon yes, later you pick up,” Deka message before going to the office.
“Iya, Brother.”
“You be careful yes. Don't be busy in this house. Just chat with Mama.”
“Iya, understand. Brother also be careful ya.”
“Iya, Darling.” Deka kissed Ririn's forehead, cheeks and lips as usual before leaving for work. Not to forget, Ririn also kissed the reverence of the back of Deka's hand.
“Bye, I love you.” Deka waved his hand. He was sitting in the car with the engine running.
“I love you too.” Ririn waved her hand back. Then the car drove.
There was not much Ririn did in the house of the in-laws other than chatting, talking about pregnancy. And also learn to knit. Her mother-in-law likes to knit. Especially knitting baby trinkets for prospective children from his eldest son.
“When Mina was pregnant, mom was still active in the boutique. So, do not have time to make things like this,” said Mama while her hands are busy with knitting activities.
“Padahat long ago when pregnant mama Deka and Dewa, although mama works, still strive to knit. Make baby hat, baby socks.” Mom started telling stories.
Ririn smiled at the story of the in-law who still looks beautiful and looks young despite her age of five. Ririn noticed Mama's hand movements and followed her. He is learning to knit.
“This is like this, Mah?” lontar Ririn's.
“Not so. Here the needle goes in here.”
“Begin?”
“Yes, rightly so.”
“If you're smart, knitting is fun yes, Mah.”
“Of course it was fun,” says Mama.
“Oya, how is your pregnancy, dear, healthy?”
“Alhamdulillah healthy, Mah.”
“Have been caught the gender?”
“Numbered, Mah. Yesterday last check the content, not yet visible gender.”
“No, nothing. It's ‘kan first child, so want a girl or boy yes just the same. The important healthy.”
“Iya, Mah.”
“Rutin, Mah.”
“Be careful yes, dear, guarded her pregnancy. Deka really want to have children,” said Mama.
“Iya, Mah. Pray that Ririn will have a smooth pregnancy, that the baby will be healthy. Amin.”
“God, mom will always pray. May all be healthy. How old is it?”
“Four months, Mah. Therefore want a discussion with Mama, good if you want to hold a four-monthly celebration where, Mah?”
“May Deka how?”
“Bang Deka wants us to make an event in three places. In Jakarta, Serang and Subang.”
“Ya already then. The important thing is, Ririn don't be too tired. Give the same to the people who take care of it. If you say mama anyway, the four-month thanksgiving with the sharing of sembako or supporting orphans is also nothing. The important point is that we share happiness and also pray for the safety of Ririn and her future baby.”
“Iya, Mah. Mending is like that. Maybe to be in Subang later to share aja sembako. If in Serang maybe there will be a lecture event. And for here aja.” orphan benefit event
“Well, mom agrees. Let everyone feel your happiness.”
“Iya, Mah.”
Learning to knit, it turns out a pretty effective way to kill boring free time. The proof, it does not feel like the real time has arrived. Though earlier Ririn only postponed to pray Zuhur and lunch only.
Ririn immediately cleaned up her knitting equipment. He promised in his heart, at his home later, will fill his free time with this activity.
As a result of knitting activities today, Ririn managed to make a cute baby hat. He made a green hat, so that it can be used by the baby later. Either the baby will be male or female.
He smiled happily while looking at his work. After Deka's work later, he will show his work proudly to the husband.
As he was cleaning the knitting equipment, his phone rang. He rubbed the phone screen. There was a phone call from Tiara.
“Halo, Tan.”
“Iya, Ra. Why?”
“Tante again where?”
“In his mother's house om Deka. What's up?”
“Tan, I have English PR. Can't do it. Aunt can you help me?”
“Duh, if English, aunt also does not understand. If Sundanese language, new aunt understand.”
“What do you ask, Tan?”
“Bby, but later tonight just ask, if Om is not busy.”
“OK, Tan.”
“Or you try to do it yourself first. I think there's an English dictionary on the bookshelf in Om's study. Try to take it. If the room is locked, ask Sanah tea to open the door. Sanah tea has a spare key.”
“OK, Tan. Thanks yes.”
“Ya, equally.”
After getting a phone call from Tiara, Ririn remembered her plan to buy Tiara school shoes.
A few days ago, Tiara's shoes got wet from the rain. Ririn realizes that Tiara only has one shoe. So he plans to buy more shoes for Tiara.
He then contacted Deka and asked for permission to go home now. Deka who was in the middle of a lot of work and seemed unable to go home in the afternoon, finally allowed Ririn to go home first with Mang Pardi picked up.
