Nausea and vomiting continue to dominate Lani. Even ***** eating is reduced. Smelling a nauseous fragrance, Lani always closes her nose when Andre approaches. Lani can't stand the smell of Andre's perfume and hair oil. Finally Andre bela-belain did not wear perfume for the sake of his wife. Seeing Lani's condition, he was very unbearable. Andre decided to take Lani to the doctor for a consultation, even though Lani had refused. Understand correctly with the character of her husband who is firm, Lani also complies.
”Nausea and vomiting are common in early pregnancy. Usually in the first trimester of pregnancy, women
pregnant women will experience nausea and vomiting or the term morning sickness. It is due to the influence of psychological changes and the influence of hormonal changes. Almost 50 – 90 % female
pregnant women will experience nausea in the first trimester. ”
”So my wife doesn't pa-pa Doc? ”
Doctor Shafira smiled. ” It's OK Sir.”
”Well...Lani also said what Mas. I really don't believe it. It's mundane. ”
”But there is also a very excessive nausea, we are familiar with the term hyperemesis gravidarum. Excessive means beyond habit. It is also accompanied by weight loss. For women who suffer from this need intensive treatment. But from the results of our examination, your wife is not a sufferer of hyperemesis gravidarum. Therefore, Mr. Andre just calm down. ”
Andre and Lani smiled.
”How to reduce nausea Doc? ” ask Andre again. Lani was small to see her husband who was so enthusiastic. It's Lani or Andre pregnant, huh? Doctor Shafira smiled.
”Mother Lani should eat on time and do not overdo it, meaning in small portions only. Eat carbohydrate and high protein foods such as fruits and vegetables, bread, potatoes, biscuits. Avoid fatty, spicy and greasy foods. Lani's mother should also drink enough water. Besides water, you also drink fruit juice. Avoid drinks that contain caffeine and carbonates. Get enough rest and take vitamins. I will give vitamins to Ms. Lani. One more thing, when you wake up in the morning do not immediately stand, sit first a few minutes and then get up. ”
”Good Doc, I will follow Doctor's advice. Thank you, Doc. ” This time Lani answered.
”Sama-sama Ma'am. ”
They came out of the practice room, Andre continued to hold his wife's hand.
"Lani said what, too, Mas. Morning sickness is common. Lani had consulted as well."
"Mas worried look at your condition."

Sundays. Andre is engrossed in his laptop. Lani lay on the couch reading a magazine. Occasionally his hands tugging at Andre's hair sitting on the –th floor strange habits Lani since pregnant – Andre has been used even though at first he was shocked.
”Mas..”.
”Ya darling. ” Andre said without megalihirkan view of the laptop in front of him. ”
”Lani really wants to eat cassava lepak. Mas know it lepat cassava.”
Andre thought for a moment. ” Which one? ”
”Fast cassava or cassava glue. Lani's place is called lappet gadong."
Andre gawking.
"That's what Mas. The cassava is shredded and given sugar that has been mixed with grated coconut and then wrapped in banana leaves, last steamed. Have you ever eaten? ”
”It never seems. Mas yunya nagasari. Are you from Sumatra, right? ”
”Iya. But there is no time here. ”
”Never seen. ”
Lani combed Andre's hair with her fingers. ” Mas, Lani really wants to eat cassava lepak. Mas cariin yes..”
”Where do you want to go?"
”In the market or where it is. ”
Andre sighed. ” Difficult sonorous, Mistress..”
”Mas jang dong. ” Lani starts frowning.
Andre scratched his non-itchy head. ”Yes already, Mas phone a travel agent first huh? ”
”Why call a travel agent, what do you do? ” Lani confused.
”You can book a ticket to Medan. Ntar Mas loudinya there, or Mas tell Mama who makein. ” Andre kalem said.
Lani added whimpering. Andre continues his work. Lani loosens her tongue at Andre, but Andre does not see because of his position on his back to Lani.
Lani was quiet more all day. He said that Andre asked. Andre was upset to see his wife, but it might be his fault for not obeying his wife's will, but he was also very busy, and not necessarily in the market.
”Darling, Would you like to make fried rice? ” asks Andre to Lani who is ironing.
”Pasih Mas, Lani is full. ”
”Then I buy chocolate only yes.”.
Lani tries to smile, despite being forced. ” Again do not want to eat chocolate Mas. Yesterday Lani was born with a big chocolate bar in the office. Same with Mayang. ”
”Oh..” Andre ran out of sense to seduce his wife. ” If it's ice cream, would ya ? ”
”Gigi Lani now often grieve Mas, so lazy to eat ice cream. There's a lot of work, right? Work there again. ” Lani half pushing Andre's body.
Andre's back in his study. But she doesn't work right away, her mind drifting on Lani.
He needed a storymate, and finally Andre called Mardin.
”Din, so dizzy..”.
”Why you? ”
”Lani crashing. ”
”For what? ”
nyari. You know what, run right on cassava in this town where? ”
Mardin's voice was heard across the street. ”Hah? Gadong lappet? I don't know either Bro.that's a special meal from our village there. ”
”Means I'm confused. Where I was busy, my wife even added a burden of mind. ”
”Don't talk so you Bro. She's carrying your child. He's not the one who wants it, but
your kid. You think pregnancy is good? Tortured tau! ”
Andre sighed. Where maybe the fetus wants, surely the mother, the fetus does not know anything, inner Andre. ”But, the request is strange, Din. If we lived in Medan, it would be very easy to find it. ”
”Looks like he misses his family. ”
”Ah, every day Mama called. It is difficult to keep pregnant women. ”
"Whatever's different, Bro's on the phone by meeting in person." Mardin chuckles. ”If you don't want to be hard don't marry. So, what can I do for you, bro? ”
”You help cariin dong.”.
”I have to find where? ”
Andre was silent for a moment. ”Aha...!!! your wife is also a batak Din, maybe she can make the cassava lepak. ”
”I'm sure he can. My wife is a cook. ”
”Well, I ask help dong.say your wife deh to masakin tuh food. Ntar me
pick up. ”
”Beres. What do you do, everything does not. ”
Andre smile. Everything's settled. Waiting for news from Mardin. Wait, my dear wife, the food you crave is coming soon.
@ @ @
Andre was moved to see his wife who enjoyed the lepak cassava made by Mardin's wife with greed. Beyond the deal, Mardin and Lyla - his wife - delivered the food.
”There are many Yes Sister Lyla. You know if I crave this food. ”
Lyla smile. Mardin and Andre looked at.
”Emang you can't make huh Lan? ” ask Mardin.
”Can be Bang, but I don't want my own cooking. I want someone else's cooking. ”
Mardin. ”Andre...Andre, your son is still in the womb. Especially if it is born later. Exactly like you. ” chirps.
Forehead Lani wrinkled. Andre was wrong. Don't-don't think Lani.
”Pregnant people are ordinary so. ” said Lyla as she silenced her son who whined constantly. "I also once did, Bang wanted to eat goldfish arsik." Lyla laughs.
"Yes, all night."
"Sometimes that desire cannot be held back. Keep on loving." added Lyla again.
Andre laughs.
"Tomorrow if you want to eat something else that is difficult to get here, just tell me. God willing, I'm sure."
"Yes, Lan. What else do you want, say it. Ombus-ombus, onde-onde, yummy, pohul-pohul?" Mardin mentioned the names of the cakes.
"It's not like it's good either, Bang but don't have to be steamed, just raw. Lani likes it too, Lyla's sister."
Andre could only gawk at the conversation the three of them had. He felt alienated, because the three of them Batak, only he himself Java.
"Why, Bro? Confused you're ombus-ombus and it's what's that?" Mardin laughed at Andre's expression.
"That's not the cake that we had at our wedding, you know. When the Mas family comes bring food, there is rice, side dishes, there are bananas, there is cake that uses brown sugar, it's it's it's the taste."
Andre shakes. "No remembering."
"Yes, it's been."
”Mas yes ask Kak Lyla masakin I lepak this cassava. ” said Lani after Mardin and Lyla
go home.
Andre did not answer.
”Mas..answer dong.”.
”Yeah... ” Andre scratching head. ” The important thing, your wish is achieved right, dear. ”
”But Mas is already troubling others. ”
”I'm more bothered if until they're not willing to make it. Ah, stop it, baby. They
all the friends also. ”
Lani remained silent.
”I want to try dong too. How does it feel anyway? ” Andre plucks the cake in front of him and directly
ate it. ”Hmm..enak too. ” Praise Andre. ”Duh, son...Ndeso really, masa’ his favorite cassava?”
Lani was silent.
