Love Stay Here
Pregnant

Morning blind Sekar felt his stomach stirred. It feels like there is no end to nausea. Even though there was nothing else to take out, he always wanted to vomit and vomit again. Many times Sekar went to the bathroom to remove his entrails, but only a yellow liquid came out and left a bitter taste in his mouth.

Bima deftly helped his wife to be able to walk because her energy had been drained. He took eucalyptus oil and rubbed it all over the body of the woman who has now become a part of his life.

"Honey, we're going to the doctor, okay?" bima asked while applying eucalyptus oil to his wife's stomach. He stared at that flat stomach and a question sprang up in his mind. "Darling, when was the last time you were on the moon?"

"Two weeks ago" said Sekar Lirih so weak.

"Is it possible you're pregnant?" ask Bima again.

"New two weeks already mabok gini? there's no way it looks like it" Sekar replied, closing his eyes.

"We go to the doctor, who knows if we're actually pregnant?" bujuk Bima's. He does not want to be late to know his wife's pregnancy so that things do not happen that are not desirable.

"Later, I'm going to sleep first, tired," And Sekar actually went to sleep a moment after saying that.

Seeing his wife sleep in peace makes Bima's heart moved to go out of the room to the kitchen to prepare breakfast for himself and his wife who was sick.

Bima repeatedly opened the cooking tutorial video application but failed. He felt annoyed and desperate because many times trying always failed. The kitchen was changed like a broken ship no longer visible cleanliness. Finally, out of desperation, he simply baked bread and made milk. Yeah, that's all he can do right now.

"It looks like I have to learn to cook from mom so as not to have this kind of trouble if Sekar is sick," he muttered to himself in the kitchen. He cleaned the kitchen alone although quite hassles with his efforts that must be extra patient. He could not imagine how his wife did all the housework alone especially now he was sick.

After the kitchen cleaning activity was completed, he went upstairs to the place where his room and Sekar were. With a quick step he climbed up the stairs with his hands carrying a tray filled with glasses of milk and toast on it.

"Honey, let's eat first so there is energy to wake up," said Bima while rubbing his wife's head that still closed his eyes. His heart felt sorry for his wife. The usually radiant face now looked deathly pale. The hair that is usually beautiful now looks tangled and messy. The normally fit body was now drooping weakly helplessly. His heart was sore but he could not replace it.

Because he did not wake up, Bima also rose to take dirty clothes and immediately washed them painstakingly. Back in college in Japan, Bima used to wash clothes and clean the house alone. But to eat he always bought it. That's why he can't cook anything.

After washing Bima also dried it on the terrace behind their house. He went upstairs to see if his wife was awake or not but he didn't find her in bed. The sound of water coming from the bathroom. He was sure if Sekar was there.

Bima was sitting on the edge of the bed waiting for his wife to come out of the bathroom. Long enough he waited but Sekar did not also come out of the small space. Feeling something awkward, Bima took the initiative to knock on the bathroom door.

Silent. There was only the gurgling sound of water that had not stopped since just now. Without thinking Bima also pushed the bathroom door to see the state of his wife.

"Astaghfirullah, Arum?!" Bima was so surprised to find his wife's body lying on the wet floor because of the flow of water that did not stop earlier.

He deftly lifted the weak body and laid it on the bed. He opened the closet and took a change of clothes for Sekar. Soon he removed the wet clothes and replaced them with dry ones. A weak body was enough to complicate his activities this time.

******. *****

"How's my wife doing, Doc?" bima asked a doctor who had just finished checking Sekar's condition.

Yeah, they've been in the hospital. Sekar had been given intravenous fluids to be able to restore the condition of his body is very weak.

"Congratulations, sir, soon you will become a father" replied the female doctor in front of Bima at this time.

"Do you mean my wife is pregnant?" bima asked in disbelief even though he had expected it this morning.

"Yes, that's right" the doctor replied with a smile. The woman's doctor was also pleased with the happy news that he had just delivered to the new father-to-be.

"Thank you, Doc," he said and greeted the doctor on duty. His face seemed to be beaming happily.

"Mas," called. The man who was sitting staring at his wife's flat stomach gasped at the sound of the call addressed to him. He turned to the source of his enthusiastic voice, "Yes, baby you're aware, what's wrong? want what?" tanyanya.

"I why?" ask Sekar lirih.

"Congratulations, dear you will be a mother" said Bima full day.

"Bima's mom is serious?" ask Sekar not to believe. "Well I lied? seriously, dear."

She stroked her queen's stomach with happy tears. As a married woman, of course, this is the good news that he is looking forward to. A warm feeling filled his heart space. A baby will be born from her womb, she whispered in her heart.

********. *******

"Darling, I'm out for food first, huh? what do you want to drop it for?" bima asked after Maghrib time passed.

"Nothing. I just want to sleep, it feels tired" replied Sekar.

"Yes, you have rested first. I'm leaving, aren't I?" Sekar nodded.

Sekar also closed his eyes after Bima came out of the room smell of medicine that was quite stinging.

Meanwhile Bima who had just come out of the hospital canteen met Deri.

"Mom, are you here? who's sick?" asked Deri after he approached Bima.

"Strick, she had to bedrest because she was pregnant young," she replied rather awkwardly. He wasn't quite ready to meet someone who had loved his wife.

"Oh, is she pregnant? when did you get married, I don't know?" asked Deri shocked, he did not expect if the two had married because there was no wedding party in the Doni family.

"We married in Lampung when his father Sekar was sick" Bima replied.

"Oh, congratulations, yes" said Deri sincerely.

"What are you doing here?" ask Bima. The man was afraid of being cheered by the presence of Deri there.

"Silvia has just given birth" replied Deri.

"Can I go see him?" Bima wants to make sure that what Deri says is real or just an excuse

"Let's come with me" asked Deri to pass without waiting for a response from Bima. His instincts say if Bima feels suspicious of him and he will prove if it is true, Deri just got a beautiful princess.

"How are you, Silvia?" sapa Bima's. He sat in a chair next to the patient's gurney.

"Alhamdulillah, healthy. Who's sick?" The happy woman slowly woke up from her lying position.

"Sekar, she's pregnant young told bedres. Congratulations, yes, yes. I'm sorry I didn't know so I didn't bring anything."

"Thank you. Congratulations on being a dad soon. Please take good care, it looks like the Sekar content is weak so you have to take a lot of rest" Silvia said.

"Do you know where Bima and Sekar got married? how did I just find out?" ask Deri wonder.
