The Injured
Unapproximate Happiness

Time keeps turning. Eleven months is the third child of Echa and Radit. They were so active that they overwhelmed Echa.

"Aleeiah!"

Echa's son is very active, making Echa have to chase every day. Both her sisters are already beautiful, only Aleeya likes to wear diapers and t-shirts inside.

"Okay, Bubu nyerah." Echa raised both her hands. Then, hold up the phone.

"Mobu will report Baba." Aleeya who was about to run away turned her body.

"Nyony." Run towards Echa and embrace Echa's body.

It signaled that Aleeya did not want Echa to report her mischief to Radit. Echa breathed a rough breath and tried to smile. Being a mother is not easy.

The growth and development of the three Echa-Radit children is very fast. At the age of just ten months has begun to be able to stand and walk little by little.

"Aleeya don't be naughty. Baba will be angry with Aeleya. Baba doesn't want to kiss Aeleya anymore. Baba doesn't want to carry Aleeya anymore. Aleeya wants that?" Aeleya. He understood what Echa said.

"Well, it's beautiful. Now you can play" said Echa.

The three dwarves also walked together like a duck to the television room. Where the room is transformed into a playroom with a large television that will show their favorite cartoon.

Echa smiled happily when she saw her three children loved each other. Especially Aleena who always gave up on her two sisters.

Aeleya the whiny boy who would continue to disturb Aleena and Aleesa if they were busy playing. Fortunately, Aleesa understood his role. He would yield to Aleeya. Although, it would make Aleeya cry first.

A person's shunt move makes Echa squint. "Why go home again?" ask Echa wonder.

Just one hour Radit left now has returned home with a limp body. Radit did not reply, he sat down beside Echa while hugging his wife's arm.

"What's wrong with you, Ay?" Echa stroked the husband's hair. It turns out that Radit's body temperature is a little high making Echa a little panic.

"You sick?" Instead of answering, Radit laid his body in his wife's lap. Dunked his face in Echa's stomach.

"Just dizzy, Yang."

"Bababa." The three children of Echa had stood up to approach Radit. However, Echa forbids them.

"Don't ya, Bubu children. Baba is sick. The sons of Bubu cannot be near Baba. Sick like Baba. Understood?" The three Echa children nodded.

"The Bubu boys played the same mama first, yeah."

The understanding of the three Echa children makes Echa feel relieved. She can take care of her husband who is not feeling well.

"Oh my goodness, Ay. The temperature is thirty-nine degrees" said Echa. Radit could not open his eyes.

Echa gives Radit Paracetamol as first aid. If his condition doesn't improve, he'll take Radit to the hospital.

"You rest, yeah. I take care of the kids first." Radit nodded slowly with his eyes closed. Echa kissed Radit's forehead before he exited the room.

Returning to the living room made him sigh violently when his three children were no longer willing to shut up. Run there to come. Going up and down to the sofa makes Echa's head throb. Echa is proud of her three children. Even if they fall, they won't cry. Will surely rise on its own.

"The Bubu children are not tired yet? Don't want Mimi yet?" The three children did not heed Echa's words. Still busy with their world.

Aleena was playing with her favorite doll. Aleesa who was busy dancing followed the song on big television, and Aleeya who was busy removing Barbie doll body parts. Only Aeleya made Echa giddy seven circumferences. From cheap toys to expensive toys always Aleeya never plays correctly. In one day the toy was out of shape.

When they were tired, they headed towards Echa. Pulling on Echa's shirt. "Climate."

Echa rubbed the heads of her three children. Drive them to the room. Without Echa telling them, they were already queuing up in the mini-sink that was inside their room. Before drinking milk they are required to wash their hands first. Starting from Aleena, Aleesa then Aeleya. Echa always taught her three children to always be in order in any case.

Echa is busy making milk for her three children. When turning around the corner of his lips perfectly turned when he saw his three children had slept on their favorite fur carpet.

"Are you ready bobo?" The three Echa children asked for a bottle of milk that was still in Echa's hands.

They enjoy milk in large bottles. Echa rubbed the hair of her three children.

"If you wake up and Bubu is not here. You can go to Bubu's room. Bubu's door opened, "pointing Echa towards the connecting door between her room and her three children's room.

Fifteen minutes later, the three dwarves were already asleep. The bottle of milk they were holding, had already fallen to their side.

Echa took it and immediately washed the milk bottles of her three children so as not to become a nest of bacteria.

"Good sleep dear Bubu," said Echa while peeping one by one her children's eyebrows.

Now, Echa turns to her room. Where Radit was sleeping with his peace. She checked her husband's temperature. However, the temperature is still hot. Immediately Echa took a container of water and also a towel. Put the towel on Radit's forehead so that his body temperature drops.

Feeling something wet on his forehead. Radit tried to open his eyes that felt difficult to open.

"Darling," he called me weak.

"You take a break, yes," added Echa.

In times like this, Echa's tiredness increases. However, he is self-conscious if this has become his duty and duty as a wife and mother. No tired words, no complaining. Everything has to be able. That is the principle of a wife's life.

Echa goes back to the kitchen, he makes porridge for Radit. He had to take good care of Radit. Radit worked hard for her and her three children.

"Let Mbak make it, Neng," Mbak Ina bargained.

"No need, Ma'am. Let's just Echa," he said.

The sweat had wetted his forehead, but he ignored it. The circle of hands on her waist made Echa flinch. Radit put his chin on his wife's shoulder.

"Why did you leave the room? You're still limp, Ay."

Echa turned off the stove, then invited her husband to sit on the dining table chair.

"The porridge is ready soon. I fried chicken first, yeah." Radit doesn't release Echa. He buried his face in his wife's stomach.

"Why not buy it? You don't have to be tired" replied Radit.

Radit smiled hearing that. He looked up at his wife with a happy smile.

"At any rate, children can eat it" he continued.

"My best wife" Radit replied. Echa kissed Radit's forehead. "I finish making porridge first, yeah." Radit nodded as well.

Radit only noticed his wife who was busy struggling in front of the stove from behind. The gentle touch that he never got from the figure of the mother who gave birth, now he can feel from the hands of his wife. A woman who never complains about her life. Radit knew that Echa's energy and time were spent in wells, kitchens and mattresses.

"Wait for everything to be ready, eat fruit salad first, yes. This is my fruit salad" said Echa without looking at Radit.

He picked up a fruit salad and put it on the table. "Eat this first, yeah. Everything is ready soon." Radit's hand blocked the hand of Echa who was about to return to the front of the stove.

"Booking."

Echa chuckles at the husband's indulgence. "Yes, but I'm off the stove first, yeah."

Echa meticulously feeds the husband. Just two mouthfuls, Radit had already shook his head.

"Nice?" ask Echa.

"My mouth is bad" replied Radit. Echa smiled then closed the salad cup again.

"Rest first, yeah. Later if the porridge is already so I wake up," pinta Echa.

"Temenins."

Echa opened the apron she was wearing. Leaving some unfinished ingredients cooked for chicken porridge topping. According to every request of the husband who wants to be spoiled.

Once Echa was tired of Radit's indulgence when he was sick. Echa reveals it so blatantly that Radit is no longer spoiled to Echa. So do not want to bother the wife, the pain that Radit felt he kept himself. There was a point where his body could not pretend and was unconscious when doing the practice. Fortunately, at the hospital where Radit practiced in the Aussie there was Addhitama who was visiting the hospital where he had also practiced there.

Addhitama was surprised to see Radit's body lying weakly in the IGD room with a very pale face.

Addhitama approached Radit and looked at Radit with a question mark.

"Why is this so?" Radit understood what the Papih meant.

"Radit doesn't want to trouble Echa, Pih. He said, if Radit's sick Radit's too spoiled. Make him tired" Radit said.

Addhitama let out a rough sigh. He understands why Radit is spoiled. Radit is a child who thirsts for the love of his mother. Naturally, if he behaves like that towards Echa. However, Addhitama also cannot blame Echa. Surely Echa tired if you have to face the indulgence of Radit like a toddler.

"Don't tell me Radit's being treated. Echa don't know," Radit pinta.

Unbeknownst to Radit, Addhitama goes to Echa's house and takes her to the hospital where Radit is being treated. Echa always asked the in-laws where they were going. Yet. Addhitama was silent.

At the hospital where her husband practiced, Echa's chest rumbled very quickly. He looked towards his father-in-law.

"Follow Papih" he said.

Echa continued to follow Addhitama's footsteps with mixed feelings. Until he stopped at one of the treatment rooms.

"Look!"

Echa's eyes widened when she saw her husband lying weakly on the sickle bed with an infusion tube stuck in his hand.

"Pardon Papih's son if he is sick, he does not fall asleep. He's just an orphan who's hungry for mommy-like affection. Through the warm touch of your hand, she can feel the softness of her mother's palm. That hand really caressed him." Addhitama's voice sounded very sad.

"Because of your complaint the other day, Radit decided to keep his pain alone. Until his body was unable to pretend anymore and finally collapsed. Even at times like this, Radit forbids Papih to tell you. He doesn't want to trouble you."

Hearing Addhitama's explanation, Echa's tears just slid. He felt so guilty for having forbidden Radit from indulging in it. It is natural that a sick husband wants more attention from his wife.

Without saying any more, Echa opened the door of the treatment room. Enter with tears that have flooded his face.

"Ay," call Echa.

Radit who had just been closed was a little surprised when he saw the wife was already beside him with tears that had fallen.

"Darling, you're hit"

Echa immediately embraced Radit's body. Crying on the husband's chest.

"I'm sorry, Ay. I'm sorry," she regretted.

"What's wrong with you, honey?" Echa continued to cry without answering her husband's questions.

Radit's eyes turned on someone who was in the doorway. Addhitama smiled at him. Radit gave a rough breath.

From that incident Echa transformed into a wife who was on standby. Prioritizing her husband and her three children, then she.

Radit continued to hug Echa's body. He plunged his face into his favorite place. Just being able to touch that part alone without being able to enter the cave of pleasure because Radit did not want to see his wife in pain.

Not long after, Radit also fell asleep with a smooth snoring. Echa smiled with relief. He wants to continue his work in the kitchen. However, the husband's warm hand coiled in his stomach makes Echa reluctant to get out of bed. Until they finally fell asleep together.

The three Echa children who have been awakened also try to climb to the top of the place of both parents. They crawled towards the middle where there was still an empty gap. Fortunately his father's face had already slipped off his favorite pads. Aleeya slept in the middle. Aleena leaned against Echa's leg. Aleesa leaned at Radit's feet. They slept together in one bed.

Echa feels her legs are heavy terrace. Slowly, he opened his eyes and was surprised to see his three children had fallen asleep with him and Radit. Echa woke Radit up by continuing to pat him on the shoulder slowly.

"What the hell?" Echa immediately covered Radit's lips with her index finger.

Radit's eyes fiddled to see his three daughters sleeping in their respective positions. The smile on his lips flashed and he felt an immeasurable warmth.

"I'm going to move Aleesa" Radit said slowly.

Radit very carefully sat his body and grabbed Aleesa's body. Put it next to Aeleya. And Aleena as well. Radit lifted Aleena's body and placed it beside Aleeya.

"Sleep again, honey," he told Echa.

Echa followed Radit's orders because she was still sleepy. There is happiness that Echa feels. Happiness is priceless by anything. Moreover, sleeping in bed together with his three children is a very rare moment. His three children did not feel at home if invited to sleep together with him and Radit. Little Echa has accustomed her three children to sleep independently. Without being accompanied by both parents.
