Uncle Bram

Uncle Bram
94


Keinya stared fixedly at Bram before greeting Bram who wanted to live in Indonesia. "Is that the only reason you want to go back to Indonesia?" ask Keinya.


Bram nodded steadily.


He smiled, "I'll go wherever you go. You're my home and the kids, we'll always be together."


Bram took Keinya into his arms. "Thank you dear."


"Hubbi, I'm sleepy."


"Sleep, I'm sleepy too."


When Keinya's breath has begun to be soft and regular. Bram let go of his embrace. He looked at his wife. The woman he loved the most, the woman who had once called him uncle, the woman he used to think of as his niece. But now this woman before him was a very meaningful woman in his life.


Bram still feels amazed by his life now, the happiness that was not obtained first can finally feel Bram now. "Thank you baby, you've been in my life" Bram said in a soft voice. Then he went back to his wife and fell asleep.

In the morning, Keinya woke up earlier than Bram. As usual he always stroked Bram's cheek until Bram flew away. Bram soon awoke. He kissed his wife's lips. "Good Morning mamih" said Bram after tucking his lips.


Keinya smiled too. "Morning papih. Let's take a shower, we gotta go get Lila. Grandad and Grandmom are also going to our apartment today."


Bram smiled gesture. "Can I bathe you mamih."


Keinya also pinched her husband's hand when she felt something was wrong with her husband's lower body.


Without cue. Bram uncovers his blanket and holds Keinya in bridal style for the bathroom.


Only they know what is really going on

"Where's Lila's county?" keinya asks Hana when he arrives at Zoya's house. While Bram was chatting with Hana's husband outside the house, because incidentally Nabhan had just received a phone call outside when Bram and Keinya arrived.


"Lila is coming with Zoya to the supermarket. Come Kei!" tell Hana who is sitting on the sofa.


He sat down on the couch next to Hana. "Aunty why is Raffa being treated?" ask Keinya. When two days ago Keinya called Aska, Aska did not tell if Raffa was being treated.


Hana's body stiffened, Before answering Keinya's question, Hana sighed for a moment. "Key, are you ready to hear Aunty's story?"


Keinya also nodded. " What's up Aunty."


"Do you know, your daddy used to have a kidney disorder?"


He was surprised by Hana's words. "I-I mean Aunty, is daddy now sick?" keinya's eyes glazed over when he heard about Aska's condition.


"No kei. That was, your daddy inherited a kidney disorder and it was genetic from his kakenya who also both had kidney problems. And now your mommy and daddy are checking in on Rafael regularly because they're afraid that Rafael is going through the same thing as your daddy."


Keiny shut his mouth in disbelief. "Aunty, then now how is Raffael. Is he okay."


"For now Raffael is fine. But he must be checked regularly so that his kidney condition can be monitored."


"Raffael," said Keinya. His eyes began to glaze over. How ignorant he used to be to Rafael, of course in his heart he loved his sister very much. If only she was not pregnant at this time, she would like to return to Indonesia to meet Rafael.
