I pulled the blanket over half my body. Beyond my expectations, Mas Adzam helped me. " Good night." Whisper it and land a kiss on my forehead.
I glared at him, He just laughed crisply without feeling guilty.
" The crocodile!" My grave is in Adzam.
I started to close my eyes.
Sayup-sayup still heard the sound of Mas Adzam. Looks like he's getting a call.
" What's wrong with accompanying Afi? Is there still less time to be with you? Your request is out of bounds, Num."
The atmosphere was quiet again, it seemed like Adzam decided to talk to Hanum.
I feel stupid about them. It's time to close my eyes and sleep well.
*****
Morning has come, I feel satisfied with my sleep tonight. I saw my Bintari was fast asleep. I didn't even hear her crying tonight.
In the corner of this room, it appears that Adzam was sound asleep. Did he take good care of Bintari tonight?
A soft snoring from his lips.
Mas Adzam's.
Sister came into my room, she took Bintari to take a bath. Breakfast is available. This morning I was hungry. But before eating I want to take a shower first. Walking around, I went to the bathroom. I cleaned myself.
While washing yourself, the bathroom door is knocked from the outside.
" What's wrong?" my yelling.
" What are you doing?"
I immediately hurriedly took a shower, and came out already in full clothes. I forgot my head was covered with a veil.
I'm out of the bathroom. Honestly, I was so afraid to walk after I passed Bintari's birth.
Without a word, Adzam stuck me in a hospital bed.
" Daddy?"
I hit his shoulder repeatedly.
" We're still husband and wife. I've never divorced you." She pulled my headscarf slowly.
He looked for a comb and started combing my hair. Now I just keep quiet without a word. Receiving all treatment of mas Adzam.
Next he fed me.
Ah, very delicious to eat from the hand feed of Mas Adzam. My eyes started to glaze over.
As much as possible I held him back from falling.
Damnit damnit! my eyes cannot compromise.
Finally, Adzam caught my wet eyes.
I threw my face away, Shame.
" Don't cry!" Mas Adzam. He rubbed my face.
" I'm sorry I haven't paid you any attention. Sorry if you have been carrying a heavy burden all this time. Sorry!"
He took me into his arms. Her chest that field was already wet because of my tears.
Without us realizing there was an eye watching us, looking at our movements.
Oh hanum! I don't know when he's been watching us. I don't know since when he saw Mas Adzam acting sweet on me. I clearly caught the smell of jealousy on Hanum's face.
He came in and sat down on the sofa before I could leave. He was busy playing his phone so he wouldn't see Adzam bribing me.
We were allowed to go home. Mas Adzam took care of all our belongings. Mas Adzam also paid our maternity fees. He came down first to arrange the things in our car.
While I was holding Bintari. This sweet baby is still sound asleep.
"Sleep son, let mother face your father and his second wife." Whisper in Bintari's ear.
Long enough, Adzam was at the bottom, so Hanum had a chance to get close to me.
He looked at me cynically, his hands folded on his chest, "Don't be happy just yet, doesn't mean you can embrace Adzam. Forever she will be mine, only mine." He brought his face closer to me.
If I wasn't holding Bintari, I could have slapped her in the face. But I don't want to be a lowly woman.
" I thought you were a sheep, you were a wolf. Take 'em! take Adzam's mas if you want to have it all. For me, Adzam is no longer valuable." My reply to Hanum.
Hanum wanted to return my words, but Adzam had come. He began to change his face more sweet and friendly. He also offered to carry Bintari.
I looked at him deeply, and Adzam understood my glare towards Hanum.
Mas Adzam took over carrying Bintari, while I walked slowly behind him.
Adzam opened the front door. He told me to come in and sit next to him. Then give Bintari to me.
Hanum sat behind Adzam.
I can't imagine how Hanum's face would react when he had to give up on me.
Bintari, thank you for helping me to win your father back.
*****
We have arrived at the house of mama, Ririn welcomed Bintari warmly. He immediately took Bintari from my sling.
" Welcome to aunt's house, baby."
Ririn kissed Bintari's cheek gently, I went straight into the room. I opened the box I bought last week. I read the instructions for its use, even though Adzam was no longer with me, but I had to take good care of myself.
I peeked out from behind the door, how crowded this house is, the atmosphere became warm due to the presence of Bintari.
Raka who is notoriously cute also does not want to miss, but he does not dare to hold Bintari because his body is still too small. He just poked Bintari's cheek.
Mama rubbed her eyes many times. I was also surprised to see this sight.
Adzam also seemed to be smiling happily. Only Hanum looked bete. there was not the slightest happy look at the birth of Bintari.
I sat back on the bed, put on parem and pilis and applied it all over my body. Not to forget I wrapped a long white cloth to my stomach, said the old man, this cloth is useful to shrink the stomach to look slim again.
It's never wrong if I want to try.
Because this was my first experience, so I was kind of confused to wrap it around.
" Want to help?"
God, I closed my stomach.
How could I not be aware of the arrival of Mas Adzam?
Without waiting for my approval, he opened my stomach and began to wrap the long cloth from the thigh to the stomach.
Since when did he know this?
" Don't be surprised, it's normal." Mas Adzam.
It was like I knew my heart was wondering for myself.
" It's done." He closed my stomach again.
" Thank you." Answer's short.
I'm trying to find busyness. Putting Bintari's baby bed on my bed.
" Don't be tired!" The Adzam order.
I stopped my activities. Since when does he care about me.
" You just gave birth. Like a car, you just got off the engine. Do not lift heavy objects. Don't get too tired, you'll bleed." Adzam explained to me.
After Mas Adzam finished talking, I reassembled milk, and Bintari drinking bottles on the table. If my ASI is out, then this formula milk will stop.
" Tomorrow you do not have to wash, let us wash your dirty clothes and Bintari clothes." Say it again Adzam.
" Not bother you. I'm used to doing everything myself. God willing, I'll be fine."
There is nothing to be afraid of if everything is done slowly and carefully.
" She's coming home!"
Adzam and I both looked at the door. Apparently Hanum had brought Mas Adzam home.
" Please go home, you don't have to worry about me and Bintari."
I'm out of the room. Mama handed Bintari to me.
" Take Bintari into the room, and you immediately eat so that your ASI will come out soon." Mom's orders.
I obeyed my mother's orders. Bintari is not too fussy. After putting the bintari on the bed, I immediately went to the kitchen to fill my middle village.
I heard you were angry at Adzam, "You want to take Adzam home? Where are your thoughts and heart as a woman? Who will help Afi take care of Bintari at night? That's Adzam's responsibility. So he knows how hard it is to be a father. Mama asked you not to bother Adzam for a month."
She left Adzam and Hanum.
While Ririn and Raka are busy with their respective activities.
After eating, I saw Adzam and Hanum discussing in the living room.
Not wanting to add to the pain, I immediately went into the room and closed it. Before long I heard the sound of the car leaving the yard of my mother's house.
I walked to the window. Mas Adzam and Hanum had gone home.
" Well, once there is Bintari, you still cannot refuse Hanum's request. It turns out that your love for Hanum is greater than for Bintari.
