Week 16, when the age of Sari's womb entered the age of 4 months, in their residence, Moses held a Quranic tadarus event. Intentionally inviting relatives, neighbors and some close friends.
Atmo's grandfather and both Moses and Sari's parents had arrived at their home since morning. Sari chose a 4-monthly event held Sunday afternoon at their home.
Umi had proposed to hold a 4-monthly event in the hotel ballroom owned by Musa. But Moses refused, feeling less kinship.
The arrangement of the afternoon event began from the Qur'an tadarus together, because there were about 50 invitations, added Moses, Sari, and family so that they could mengkatamkan Quran 2 khataman.
The event continued after the Isa prayer, which is the reading of the simtuduror maulid, led by one of the ustadz invited from solo, he was a close friend of Moses when he was studying in Cairo.
The event lasted until 9 p.m. Musa deliberately uses the services of EO (event organizer), so that everything can be sorted out without making Sari and her family dizzy and tired of thinking about all kinds of events.
In the evening Umi and Abi stay at Moses' house, while Triono and Esti choose to go home to Atmo's grandfather and say goodbye because tomorrow will leave early.
" I'm sorry baby.mama can't stay here".
" Mama and Papa are doing a lot of work in the office, so you take good care of yourself, hopefully you and the fetus in your stomach are always healthy and can be protected from God", said Mama while stroking the stomach of Sari who had begun to look bloated.
" Moses... Papa believes you will take better care of Sari than us, right ma?".
Mama nodded while smiling sincerely.
Atmo's longest grandfather gave advice to Sari and Moses, let alone this first pregnant sari, so it must be maintained properly, not to be like his mother/Esti, so it must be maintained, she lost her first child due to work fatigue and lack of rest.
Of course Esti so back to the past, when she had to lose her first child who was still in the stomach because of her boredom. Yet it was only a handful of bitter pasts, and could soon be buried after the birth of Dimas and Sari.
While Abi who had been traumatized because Umi had been in a coma during giving birth to Moses, always advised Moses to keep Sari with extra care.
" Your wife is struggling to make you happy by carrying your child in her stomach. Appreciate her, love her and respect her as you respect your mother".
Of course, without the advice of the parents, Moses had also learned a lot from the great teacher about how to behave as a good husband.
Moses listened to all
advice, advice and advice from the elders, the point should be to treat Sari well.
***
Afternoon at the weekend, after 2 weeks after the event 4 months of Sari's pregnancy. The atmosphere at home was quiet, because Moses had not returned from campus, there was a seminar that must be attended, Moses was asked to attend as a speaker.
Sari, who already has a hefty workweek in the hospital, chose to rest at home on the weekends. If still single like his friends maybe Sari will open her own practice. But Sari followed the doctor's advice to rest a lot and not be too tired. Because the beginning of her pregnancy is not too good, several times fainting and anonymous, so Sari must be careful with her pregnancy.
Sari chose to relax in the side yard, while looking at some orchid plants that were deliberately planted by Umi to beautify the side yard of the house.
There are moon orchids with various colors, some are yellow, white, pink, purple and also a blend of purple and white.
All looks very beautiful because it is blooming together, really a moment that can rarely be seen, because sometimes one blooms and the other is still buds, while this time all blooms together.
" What else is it, dear.?", Moses came out of the house and crouched down in front of Sari who was sitting leaning on a wooden chair.
Sari who was inhaling the smell of wet soil after the rain, closed her eyes, feeling shocked when suddenly the voice of Moses sounded in front of her.
" When did Mas come home?, why didn't Sari hear the greetings?".
" It was 15 minutes ago, when the rain was still heavy, Mas had a greeting, but there was no answer, so Mas just entered, fortunately bring a spare key".
" Yes, it was a little raining when heading to the campus parking lot, so shampooing deh..."
" Darling what about the plan for the USG tomorrow?, did you make an appointment with doctor Agus?", asked Moses.
" Sari made an appointment a week ago. What is the schedule of Mas Monday tomorrow at full hours?", asked Sari while holding the hand of Moses who was stroking his stomach to stop, because Sari was amused.
Whether since when it became a new habit of Moses, always stroking the stomach of Sari who already looks bloated. It was like giving peace if stroking his wife's stomach. Or maybe because it is as if he is interacting with his prospective child who is still in the stomach. So his heart was calm.
Sari also felt calm as Moses stroked her stomach, but if Moses stroked too gently, it turned amused.
" Don't be so dong Mas, Sari amused if the mas hold it soft like that".
" Eh.. uh... uh...!"
Sari was shocked when suddenly Moses carried Sari into the house with a smile.
" It's late afternoon, soon Maghrib, not good for pregnant women sitting outside the house".
" Yes.iya... Mas, but Sari can walk alone, down Sari".
Musa carried Sari into the house, explaining his schedule on Monday.
" Monday there are classes at 8 am, 10 to 12 am empty, so Mas can go to the hospital to see the results of USG with you, after lunch Mas back to campus", said Moses.
" Okay, but now down Sari", Sari still whine asking to be put down.
Moses complies with Sari's wishes, lowering her on the sofa in the living room. Smilingly looking at Sari fixedly.
" Kok Mas even smiled to himself, why?, Sari ugly yes, because now it becomes more contained?", Sari stood and ruffled waist with Moses.
Moses shook his head, "No my sweet wife, even more beautiful and sexy, so much more dear", Moses hugged Sari from behind, while again stroking Sari's stomach with her palm.
Det....
Moses was wide-eyed when his palm felt a movement from within Sari's stomach.
" The baby in your belly has started to move and respond". Moses immediately turned his body and faced Sari's stomach which was still covered in casual clothes.
" Is it true?, but Sari has not clearly felt it, maybe because Mas was a hug, so Sari thought Mas's hand movements".
Moses pulls Sari's hand and invites her into the room.
" Here, let it be clearer, Mas pointedikin".
Sari sat on the edge of the bed and Moses uncovers Sari's top shirt, watching Sari's naked belly.
" Mas touch yes, let dede respond", Moses also touched Sari's stomach, and sure enough, there was movement from inside Sari's stomach.
Sari was immediately moved, and shed her tears.
True what doctor Agus said a few days ago, the movement of the fetus will begin to feel strong in week 18.
Sari and Moses looked at each other with faces full of gratitude and happiness.
