An Unwanted Match
JYTD 36~£

Thea was still lingering at home sitting by her husband's bedside. Galang face when sleeping as if to invite him to surf on pieces of their complicated past. However, until this moment Thea was always grateful because God had met him with Galang. The young man who always makes his blood pressure rise and cause headaches.

If only how to express the word was just as easy. Thea must be able to smoothly express how happy she is now. But, it's not that easy. The neatly arranged word of every heart gap he gathered was scattered everywhere. Until Thea doesn't know how to put those words back together.

Only body movements can represent everything. Thea's hands were too heavy to take off their grip, because the warm feeling that flowed Galang too became opium for him.

"Hi ...." Thea pulled the two corners of her lips up. Galang slowly opened his eyes and returned the grip of their hands. It had been two hours full of the man sleeping, relieve the pain produced by his own actions. The infusion needle re-attached to his hand after the doctor scolded Galang's own will.

"Have you been here since? Where are the others?" tanya Galang has a special hoarse voice waking up. He threw a glance around, all that was caught was deserted. Except he and Thea are in there.

"Udah home. But Mama's both outside. You sleep well, they're afraid to disturb."

Galang nodded small. Understand some of the meaning of Thea. "Did they not fight?"

"As you would expect. Your efforts have been fruitful all along, Lang. And we should be able to reap more happiness from our stories all along."

Thea smiled. Not a second did his eyes switch to another place. For the first time, she felt she had been harmed by the selfish time of swallowing her every togetherness with Galang.

Galang chuckled softly. "Since when have you been greedy, huh?"

"Since ... now," Thea answered accordingly.

"Basic man. I want more."

"Biarin," Thea said quickly. "I want to ask you more."

Galang. "Seek what else? Not a weird one, is it? Ahhh .. Should I keep getting sick so that I get more attention?" mooed Galang with a faint smile.

"Galange, huh! That's it, si? It's not strange to know. I promise," Thea said.

"Yes. What are you asking for?"

"Why is your style of speech so formal? Speaking to Prince Akutuh, Lang. It feels a bit .. sshh." Thea rubbed her nape slowly. Confused what to say. "It's not that weird."

The creaking on Galang's forehead lasted quite a long time. Thea knew she should be quite happy for Galang's big change. Treat her very well and never shout out loud again. But, somehow the change became a little foreign to accept. Not infrequently, Thea even misses the man's absurd ramblings on him.

"Aishis. So, who's weird here? It wasn't me, was it?" Thea.

"Continue?" ask Galang.

"I want my ship back. The chatty, squishy, squishy grumble, which must have made my ears hurt every day. I know it's a weird whimper, but .. I don't know why, I miss you."

Galang sighed for a moment. He also tried to get up and sit down, his body began to improve after getting enough rest earlier. "I thought you liked gentle men."

"i like. But soft is definitely not you."

Galang stretched out one hand to Thea until the woman's daydream was a little spoiled.

"That's what?" ask Thea.

"Hand, Thea. The leg."

Thea laughed blandly. "Isa. I know it's a hand! What does that mean?"

"I grant your request. But with two conditions" said Galang.

"Condition?"

"Yes. But there's nothing between us. Because you are the most special person. And from now on, call me Mas Ganteng."

Thea's laughter came back up, Galang again teased him like this. "Hhh, Mas Ganteng?"

"Why? Not want? Yes, it's ...."

"Eh, yes yes. Er ... emhh Mas GANTENG! Deals." Thea hurriedly grabbed Galang's palm quickly. A rather strange mention actually. But, didn't that include the fragrance for him as well? He should respect Galang as a husband. Including the call that will be pinned on him.

"Well, that, dong. It's good to hear. You should be grateful to have a husband as good and beautiful as this. Limited edition, guaranteed never again out there," said Galang full of satisfaction.

"Damf. Is that the pedal not the height? Let's cry like a little boy rolling on the ground."

They both laughed. Until someone opened the door, Galang again put on a flat face seeing his rival enter casually.

"Wake up? I thought you were going to sleep like a snow princess" Yasa said.

"Anyway if you say. How can you say that nongol-nongol mulu in front of me? My boss meets Jin mulu every day."

Yasa's hand spontaneously hit Galang's shoulder. He put on his tight face even though Galang grimaced. "Heh, this astral creature has no thanks! If there is no me, what can you do? You should bow down with me who has contributed to both of you."

He let out a rough breath. His mouth opened for a moment and then laughed out loud. "Sungkem prostrate? I used to bow down everything!"

"Isa. Huh already. How many times do I have to keep you from fighting mulu when I meet?" Thea interrupted their conversation which inevitably led to a fight. "Are you done, Yas?"

"Udah. They're back, too" replied Yasa.

"What's finished? Who's coming?" ask Galang curious.

"Police, Lang .. ehhhmm, Mas. They came here because they asked for more information about yesterday's problem. And the latest news today, they say ... Wingky died in a holding cell after being interrogated."

Galang eyes rounded big. "Innalallahi. Died off? Why?"

"Say he had a heart failure. I don't know for sure either, but now the body is in another hospital" explained Thea.

The heart beats as if it is not beating normally. It was strange when he felt sorry for the life of a Wingky Manassero. A once good man, current head of OSIS High School and has a big name. But with the achievements he had, he ended up horribly.

Pity for the man in Galang's heart. Because after all, Wingky is still a human who can still use a second chance in his life. Or maybe he killed himself with the poison? Given the effect it had on him was exactly like the poison that was going to be given to him last night.

"Udah, really. Don't look so sad. You two should be happy, right. No one else will disturb your life in the future. The case was automatically completed because of his death," said Yasa who broke the reverie of Galang and Thea.

Suddenly silent atmosphere. For between Galang and Thea still had enough conscience to laugh at the suffering of others.

"Gue will return to Makassar in the afternoon" Yasa said again.

Looking for a comfortable position in his place. However, Yasa's facial expression made her uncomfortable.

"That's his face. So do not have the heart to ngebully lo," said Galang. He understood what Yasa felt. The man sacrificed a lot, and the greatest. Is to give up his love for Thea.

It was very normal that Galang felt that Yasa would be a threat to him. But, Galang believes Yasa is not the same as Wingky. Who has an obsession under the guise of love.

"Rebelom. Do you want me to know a girl?" ask Galang again.

"Stop julid with Yasa deh, Mas." Thea slightly pinched Galang's arm.

"Who is julid? Actually, The. I want to know her as a pretty girl, okay. Hemhs. Pokonya fit if the same soul mate lo, Jin," said Galang again. Yasa screeched mockingly, that kind of voice was not very suitable for a situation as sad as it was now for Yasa.

"Bahhh. Asem said the same thing. Hot damn! Your offer is not good for my heart. I want to go wind outside."

"Remain unwilling?! Beautiful know! He's here, I know you want to!" galang shouted as Yasa began to step out of his room.

"Males!"

"Oh .. So you have a girl friend? Pretty like it, yeah. Sampe-sampe clover that's what he said," Thea said cynically. He raised his sleeves up the elbow. As if preparing to pounce on the victim.

Galang even shuddered. "I just want to get to know him to Yasa. Let them deket."

"Oh, huh? Yasa what are you?"

"Peace up!"

Arriving outside. Yasa closed the door. Had enough. He could not endure any longer facing the circumstances he had seen for months. The romanticization of Galang and Thea was like a spear thrown right on his chest.

Yasa closed his eyes. His chest tightness as he had to leave all his memories for 6 years with Thea. Although painful, he must appreciate Thea's happiness does not come from him.

Brak!

While walking, Yasa accidentally bumped into someone. He's not focused. Many files were scattered on the floor because of his actions. Yasa still stood up for a moment to see a woman before him crouching down to gather back the sheets of paper on the floor.

"Sorrys. Not intentionally," Yasa said in a lazy tone. So even the slow motion of his hand helped to take the final paper.

"Sir papa. Next time be careful, do not daydream if the road," said a woman with deep black hair and chubby cheeks.

Yasa could see the black round lens behind the glasses worn by the female doctor was so beautiful. Her lashes when blinking seemed to stop time.

"Excuse me, Mas."

The beautiful doctor passed by Yasa just like that. The perfume she wore was still attached even though the distance had separated them. Yasa only realized that there was an object left on the floor. He believes it must belong to the beautiful doctor.

"Nayla Agnesia Caramelia. A good name" he praised, holding a business card in his hand. He smiled, there was no intention of pursuing the direction of the doctor. He already knew his name and phone number.

Now, he just had to wait for time to forget about Thea. At the very least, he could calm down as there would be no more threatening to the woman's life after she managed to get rid of Wingky with her own poison.

***

The next few months.

People say, we will feel time is spinning so fast when comfort is at the top of the day. It was as if speeding along the highway with no obstacle in the slightest.

So did the lives of Galang and Thea. The bittersweetness of their lives has passed. Farewell, weeping and waiting now bear very sweet and pleasant fruit.

I feel like I have the most perfect family in the world. Three strong women and two fathers who became his role models. Since the case was over, Galang decided to bring Thea back to their private home.

Sometimes they stay at the house of Bu Rini and Bu Dewi alternately. So that no one feels excluded. Galang also did not demand too much for his rights to Bu Rini, he realized. His ability is not very capable of managing the company. However, Galang also certainly studied more vigorously for it.

Now, Galang has to take extra care of Thea because his wife's pregnancy has stepped on 9 months in addition to work that takes a lot of time and mind.

"Mas, look. Which do you think is the bagusan? What color is red blue?" ask Thea when choosing baby clothes.

In fact, all the baby supplies have been perfect in their room, such as baby beds, swings, clothes, cabinets, and so forth. But, somehow Thea always tempted to shop more. Especially for baby clothes.

With a variety of unique and beautiful models. Thea chose a lot of pink clothes, as well as other equipment at home. Everything's pink, hello kitty.

"Red is good" answered Galang.

"If you like blue, why ask, The!"

"Hehehe. You just need an opinion."

Galang throbbed, he was upset. It had been two hours that they had gone around the mall and entered every clothing store. But, all the clothes here even make his head dizzy and want to vomit. She's dizzy herself if Thea asks about her choice of colors and models.

"Hemhs. That's enough as it is." Thea gave a bundle of baby clothes to Galang. The man spontaneously accepted not to fall to the floor. "Find me a meal, yuk. Laper, Mas."

Thea grabbed the last outfit she asked just now. Galang's forehead frowned. "She liked the color blue. Why do you have pink?"

"Change your mind." Thea held Galang's arm. So tight they held it as if they were on a first date. There was also not much protest about Thea's nature turning spoiled during her pregnancy. He's already quite used to Thea's sometimes strange requests.

"Maas ...."

"Otherwise? Is there anything less? Belajaan is already a gini. How am I gonna take it?" galang asked as Thea grew more and more spoiled on her shoulder. Thea's cunning moves and grin are so scary now. He was worried that the woman would ask for something strange again.

The groceries they paid at the cashier were already nearly 10 paper bags. It's not a matter of money, but shopping is really not a hobby Galang. He wondered for himself, why are women always enthusiastic when shopping? Are their calves not so swollen from too much walking? Are their eyes not sore from seeing this and that?

"Abis eat, we go to Mom's house, yeah. He said the papaya behind his house was dead."

Galang swallowed the saliva hearing the word. Bad feeling for him. "I'm not horrified."

"I want to eat that. Do you know, during pregnancy I have difficulty defecating? It hurts so much to know. People say, papaya can facilitate digestion."

"Yes. Why should I be at my mother's house? You don't realize where we are anymore? Buy it here."

"Delight. Different fruit. Straight from the tree is healthier, Mas."

"Continue?"

Thea grinned as if she had gotten a crack. "You're the methikin, yeah."

Innalillah. Galang stupefied, his jaw seemed to slack down to hear Thea's request. Indirectly, Thea asked him to climb a papaya tree, that is?!

Error rubbing face, while waiting for the queue. He crouched down in front of Thea and used both knees as body support. Thea's eyes swept around, she was embarrassed. Some people near them noticed Galang's behavior that was beyond reasonableness.

"What do you want, anyway? Stand, Mas. Embarrassed to know about people," prevent Thea when Galang managed to land a palm on his large stomach.

Gentle rubbing on Thea's stomach, made the little one in it move uneasily as if feeling the touch of the father. Smiling, he realized it. And he was really happy and became the luckiest prospective father because he could feel clearly the movement of his tiny body in Thea's stomach.

"Campaign, Papi. You can be in Dalem?" galang asked the prospective baby while stroking Thea's stomach. "When you are born. Papi please really, you do not imitate your Mami, yes. It's enough your mommy who makes papi dizzy. You don't. You're a hotshot."

Thea laughed heartily. "Damf. The hotshot? Said who? My baby must be a pretty rich mom."

Galang. She smiled a slanted smile at Thea's conviction. To be honest, the two of them themselves do not know the gender of their future baby. Because Galang wants to get a surprise. Therefore, he forbade Thea to ask further when USG.

"You betting? My son must be a hotshot. If you lose, 3 months after he was born. We have to create a new project so that he does not get lonely" Galang said.

Thea's eyes widened. "3 months?!"

"Snakes."

Thea was grieving, Galang continued to tease her with that belief. And obviously he doesn't want to lose. She sure is a girl baby! Moreover, Mother Goddess and Bu Rini supported him all this time.

"okay! I'm not scared."

Grinned with a satisfied smile. Once again she invited her baby-to-be to talk with passion and prayer. "You hear that, champ? Your mother agreed, so you were born later. You will have ade. Seneng, right? If you're smirking, that's why you're out, yeah. I can't wait to hug you, darling. May you be born safe and sound, yes."

Galang landed a few small kisses on Thea's stomach, not sparing her big palm rubbing gently and lasting long enough there, feeling her baby's movements so active.

"Mas, that. I'm ashamed ...."

Both of Galang's legs have taken over his knee performance. He was a little tingling, but nothing compared to his current happiness. After the payment at the cashier was completed, they walked out of the mall.

"Ahhhh. Mas."

"What's wrong? Is your stomach okay?" ask Galang.

Thea next to him suddenly stopped. They are still at the exit of the mall. His wife grimaced, one hand holding her lower abdomen as if preventing something urgent from there.

"That hurts! Please, I'm not strong, Mom."

Panic galang. Thea's body slumped and rested on the floor. Galang spontaneously threw their groceries no matter what but his wife.

"Sir! Take the car to the exit. My wife is giving birth!" He put the device in his pocket after contacting his driver. One second later, he swiftly carried Thea's body out of the mall quickly.

***

Galang did not stop squeezing Thea's fingers, strengthening the woman to be more calm in dealing with this situation. Thea had already been treated by a doctor, an infusion needle had been attached to his wife's hand. Now, the woman is being further examined regarding the condition of the baby and her mother.

Thea's face was pale. Sweat had permeated his body because it endured the pain. The first time I saw that. He was so heartless, his heart was too faint to see his beloved woman in pain.

"We have to take surgery, sir."

The doctor said. He tried to be calm, but Galang and Thea were the opposite. "Op-op? Why, Doc? Last month my doctor said I could give birth normally." Thea's shocked.

"Yes, Mom. But, there are a few things to consider right now." Doctor Sunny showed them a monitor. "Simply I explain. The baby's head is on the right. Which is supposed to give birth normally, it's position is below. This kind of thing is really impossible to give birth normally, ma'am."

"Astagfirullah. But, are both in good health, Doc?" ask Galang. His heart seemed to be beating twice as fast, the explanation of the doctor was clearly quite jolting his heart.

"The baby's condition is healthy. Here, the weight is also enough, 3.3 kilo grams. His mother also had normal blood pressure. I hope, mother don't tense up, yes. So that the operation process can run smoothly and quickly."

They both received good orders. Only prayer and effort could they make for Thea to give birth safely. If surgery is the way to go, Thea believes she can do it.

***

"Mas Galang .. You went to Dalem, right? Temenin I'm there. I'm afraid there's no you." Thea clasped Galang's palm tightly.

The surgery began shortly after he was asked to fast a few hours earlier. Their parents have come and faithfully accompany them. Bring the best baby equipment and prayers of course. Understandably, this is the first child as well as the first grandchild. They have been enthusiastic since being told about Thea's situation.

"certain. Don't be afraid, I'll put you in the dalem, The. We're all here for you."

Galang smiled. Thea sneaks a temple to convince the woman. That he was so grateful to have been given such a powerful and great wife.

"Yes, Son. Don'worry. Our prayers are with you, may you both be in good health, yes."

Gentle rubbing felt Thea in her hair by Bu Rini, without exception Bu Dewi who also gave her prayers. Until some people enter the room. It's time for Thea to do her surgery.

"A ready? Just try to stay calm, Mom."

Thea nodded slowly. Even in his little heart, he still had fear and anxiety. But everything is not too felt because of the support of his family, especially from Galang.

They all drove Thea to the operating room. Bu Rini and Bu Dewi patiently waited when the door of the room was closed and left silence in the waiting room. Their husbands haven't come yet, Mr. Yahya is on business out of town. So was the husband of Bu Dewi who was still in Semarang.

Some time later. The door of the room opened, the mothers who were there stood with pale faces. Hope to worry about the nurse coming in and out of there. Until there is a sign of Galang's appearance in the doorway. They stepped quickly to approach the slow motion of Galang.

"A-what's up? The operation went well, didn't it?" ask Bu Rini curiously. He was worried when he saw the look on Galang's face so moody in front of him. Even his mouth was tightly closed as if there was no passion at all.

Galang just nodded slowly.

"Then where is Thea? And hers? They're both healthy, right?" ask the Goddess.

They were both anxious themselves to see Galang's silence. The man simply drowned the face behind his palm as if holding something back. Both of his eyes were red as if he had been crying inside.

If only it was allowed. They want to get in there. But it seems that the doctors there are not yet fully finished.

"Langs. Say the same mama. What the hell's going on? Why are you silent? Same daughter-in-law with mom's granddaughter all right, right?"

"It's bad, Ma. I can't be honest with you guys because I'm afraid Mama is shocked by this news" Galang said so quietly to his two mothers.

"What-what do you mean? Please be honest, son. What the hell is going on?" As time passed, two of his mothers waited for a reply from Galang.

"Because ...my son was born so handsome as I am!"

"W-what?"

Not yet digested full of speech, Galang has soared excitedly and embraced Bu Rini and Bu goddess in turn. His gloomy face had changed as bright as the sun. But, the news actually turned things around.

"Alhamdulillah. Finally my prayer was answered, God. I have a champ who's gonna win the ball! Yuhuuu!"

Galang did not stop giving thanks, shouting satisfied with the most beautiful gift he had just received. Now, he had legitimately become a father of the baby boy inside there.

***

"Moeuu. Mas Galang from earlier sucked me on! Look at his face like it keeps looking." Thea's lips pursed. She was upset with Galang's behavior, her husband seemed happy on top of his defeat in guessing.

Thea who could not do anything, just lay down and growled herself in bed. While Galang next to him was at home with a new member of their family. His strapping body swings with the rhythm of his slow movement of his sling at the little guy.

He's very satisfied. Her baby's face and hair were so exactly like her without being missed in the slightest. The perfect print is combined with his thick black hair.

It's just. A little disappointed, funny actually. Because from top to bottom, her tiny baby clothes are pink. Bedong fabric, clothes until the snail pink color. Until the hero looks funny and beautiful.

"Damf. Lying, Mom. He is a sensi again," said Galang while staring at his baby back. "Crappish. Your mother has lost, but won't tell me. Your mom's afraid of being billed for her promise, huh."

Galang said to his little hero who had not even been named. His champ is quite a henchman and occasionally cries only when his sleep is disturbed by the noise of the adults.

"I'm not scared. I just look at your face. Bad intentions," said Thea. She has no regrets about actually being awarded a baby boy. Because of the man or woman, they will still be his children.

"Oh, yeah. Do you have a name for him?" asked Bu Rini to Galang and stopped the quarrel between the two of them.

"Mom, Mom."

"really? Is his last name the same as your late father?"

Galang. "of course. We've agreed on this. If the baby is a boy, my last name is taken from my father's name. If they were women, they would use the last name of my deceased in-laws" Galang replied. A glance of his gaze met Thea's eyes. The woman smiled and would be happy.

"Yes. We will name the baby ... Jonatha Adnan Aaron."

Galang stepped definitely towards Thea's bed. Slowly Jonatha's tiny body changed hands into her mother's lap. Thea's gaze was clouded by the traces of tear-spreads that had piled up. He could not hold on to that happiness any longer. Inhaled the baby's distinctive fragrance was attached when Thea's lips touched her son's forehead. So did he who also received a kiss on his temple by the galang.
