DBW 11 Special Egg Martabak


" Are we going straight home or going to stop by somewhere first?", asked Sakha while driving her car.


"Just go home" replied Adel who looks tired when they only take a short walk.


Sakha just nodded. However, not long ago Sakha was driving her car, Adel surprised her.


" Mommy, stop!! ", Adel yelled a little which made Sakha brake suddenly


💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞


"What's the matter?", asked Sakha in surprise. Luckily the street atmosphere was not too crowded when the car stopped suddenly.


" That's. ", show Adel pointing at the egg cart that is not far in front of him. Adel did not dare to continue his words because he himself felt bad asking to stop suddenly.


"Hahh.", Sakha sighed. " Next time don't surprise me. Fortunately there is no other vehicle behind us. ", explained Sakha in a still low tone.


" Sorry. I reflex", replied Adel feeling guilty.


" You want martabak?" asked Sakha and was answered with a nod of the head by Adel.


Sakha parked her car.


" Wait, let me just go down ", Sakha pinta.


" I'm coming!", Adel got out of the car.


They finally got out of the car together.


" Sir, one special egg martabak. One's cheese", Adel's message.


" Wait a minute, yeah", cried the martabak seller.


" Then I go to the minimarket for a while, sir", Adel walks to the minimarket next door.


" Want to buy what? ", asked Sakha who was following behind.


" Buy a snack. Make stock at home", exclaimed Adel. "wait a moment, I forgot something ", Adel came back to the martabak seller and spoke to him. After that, he returned to the minimarket.


But after entering, not only snacks are purchased. Instant noodles and various other items Adel put in the basket that Sakha brought.


When it comes to taking on the needs of women as the month comes, Adel falls silent.


" Why is it stored again?", asked Sakha confused to see Adel save back the items he had taken.


" Hmm, I think I still have stock at home" Adel replied while going to the cashier because it was finished buying the items needed.

Arriving at home, Adel opened his hammer. Do not forget to offer to his in-laws who are also watching television.


" Want to Mama? This is Mama's favorite cheese martabak", bargain Adel while shifting the position of his cheese martabak to be easily reached by the in-laws.


Mama Ria took a piece and ate it. While Adel ate a special egg martabak greedily.


"Enak.", he answered. "But, this is a duck egg?", Sakha wondered because Adel was not a problem eating the martabak. As Sakha recalls, Adel does not like duck eggs.


" Yes, I asked him to use a duck egg" explained Adel.


" When do you like duck eggs?", wondered Sakha. In the past when Sakha bought martabak eggs using duck eggs which are her favorite, Adel was reluctant to eat them. Even one bite.


Adel was silent for a moment. " I don't know either. Suddenly want to. It turned out to be delicious ", he replied as he continued eating it.


Sakha looked at Adel in wonder. A lot has changed according to Sakha. The food that Adel hates the most Adel actually says delicious is also a large portion of Adel's food. When finished praying Maghrib earlier, they ate meatballs first. Sakha still feels full. Adel felt like he was not full at all.

" Adel, are you late for the month, son?", asked Mama Ria when they were alone in the kitchen. Sakha returned to her room.


" it's almost two months I haven't come yet, huh?", explained Adel just plain. Because Adel himself has irregular menstrual cycles. Even up to months of no menstruation ever he experienced. Therefore, when he does not come to the moon, Adel is ordinary.


" Have you tried the check?", asked Mama Ria curiously.


" Cheque? Meaning?", Adel was confused.


" It's possible that you're pregnant" explained Mama Ria briefly with a glowing face.


" Hmm, not yet, Ma. I think this is common. Adel's menstrual cycle is not smooth and regular ", obviously Adel does not want his in-laws to be too hopeful.


" But my mother suspected. You see your appetite mama attention has increased lately. Also earlier when you eat martabak with duck eggs that you do not like and suddenly become your favorite", Mama Ria expressed her suspicions.


" But, I'm not nauseous, Mah", argued Adel.


" Everyone is different pregnant. There are those who experience morning sickness there are also those who do not" explained Mama Ria. " Just try it first".


" But, mama don't say anything to Mas Sakha, yes!", Adel's pinta. " Before there really was any certainty of whether I was pregnant or not" she added.


" yes. "


" Mama don't expect too much either. Adel is afraid Mama is disappointed", in Adel's heart is not too sure that she is pregnant.


" If you are not pregnant, it means that it has not been his nutrition" explained Mama Ria while rubbing Adel's shoulder.


Adel felt calm after hearing Mama Ria's reply.

" Adel, honey, you're not finished in the bathroom?" asked Sakha.


" A minute, Mommy", replied Adel


" Please put on my tie", Sakha slightly shouted.


Adel immediately approached Sakha and put away the testpack that has not seen the results.
