EL NATH (Glorious Regrets)
Chapter 75 Father's house

A month later ....

"Hoek.. hoek..." Nath was spewing out his entrails in front of the washbasin in the bathroom inside his room.

"Most stay up, but you, Bang! The wind will come." Tiara faithfully massaged Nath's nape and occasionally gave him wind oil and massaged him again.

This morning, day 3 Nath continued to feel nauseous and vomiting. Every waking up, his stomach felt in the stirring.

Indeed, some nights he continued to fly to design the garden behind the house which he planned to create a gazebo and hydroponic land to grow some types of vegetables that they could consume themselves.

Hydroponics is a system of plant cultivation that uses water as its growing medium.

Nath's activities are only to the office and occasionally charge rent. Sometimes the tenant transfers the rent directly to Nath's account until he has less time to take care of the morning and afternoon plants. He will be assisted by his home assistant.

Nath sits on a closet with a flushed face. Tiara felt sorry to see him.

"We're going to the doctor yuk, Bang!" take Tiara to the umpteenth time because Nath continues to refuse.

"Dragon's getting well, honey. Don't worry." Nath comforts his wife so as not to worry.

Thankfully, it's a holiday today. So Nath didn't go to the office. Nath stood up again and regurgitated his entrails.

He washed his entire face and Tiara quickly picked up a small towel in the cupboard hanging over him.

Nath wiped his face and looked at their reflection in the mirror. He could see the worried look on his face that Tiara showed.

Nath looked to the side. "I'm okay, baby! Don't worry too much." Nath placed his hand on the head of Tiara which was not covered in hijab. He smiled at his wife.

"Tia was afraid of my brother...." Tiara hesitated to continue her words. "Tia's afraid you've got a disease."

Nath hugged his wife. "That's okay, Ti."

Nath tries to be honest and reassures his wife that he is okay. Because he feels fine. It is a little strange because these three days he continues to be nauseous but only in the morning.

He also felt no pain in other parts of his body. Only the stomach is like being stirred and a little dizzy. Common things that people experience vomiting.

"You mustn't be late for a meal, and rest enough."

"Most stay up to make stomach acid rise, tau!" Tiara pouted in her husband's arms.

Nath chuckles. "You're from where you are, Ti."

"See on google*," Tiara said quickly.

Nath still hugged his wife. Suddenly he wanted to eat something.

"Ti, to dad's house, yuk!" Suddenly invite.

Tiara took off a hug and looked at her husband fixedly. Nath often takes her to her parents' house. But this time it was very sudden.

"Well?"

"I want to eat a longan that was picked from the tree."

Tiara was stunned to hear her husband's strange desire. The stickiness in his parents' house is fruiting, indeed. But whether it could be plucked or not, Tiara did not know.

Lately, they more often come to the laundry that has been run by his parents since four years ago. A two-story shophouse they now rent because the business is getting advanced every year.

Mother and father always go to the laundry place to just watch and sometimes his father helps to deliver clothes that have been finished in the laundry.

***

At 9am they had arrived in front of Tiara's parents' house. Nath deliberately rode a motorcycle to avoid walking into the alley.

The same house for the last four years. It's just, it's been repainted and some leaking roofs have been replaced.

Nath and Tiara went inside. Nath went straight to the backyard where Dad was gardening, cleaning the yard of the house from the weeds.

"Well, early in the morning came here, Ti?" tanya Bu Nurul, Nath's in-law. He did hear a voice that he knew said greetings and was greeted by Naura, his youngest daughter. But I didn't expect that Tiara was coming.

"Don't know, you want to eat longan early in the morning, gini" replied Tiara.

Tiara put her sling bag on the dining table. He washed his hands in the washbasin and sat down with a small stool on the floor and helped his mother cook chicken soto for lunch.

Tiara helps to form a parchment that will be served as a complement.

His mother who was stirring suah soto laughed softly. "So bad to come early in the morning just want to eat the clove doang, Ti."

"But I haven't eaten rice in the morning. Just the same nge-tea eat biscuits doang!" tiara was a bit upset.

Bu Nurul came to see his daughter's face which clearly showed an annoyed expression.

"Why not eat rice, Ti?" ask her mother to be curious.

"Three days, he's been vomiting, ma'am. Stomach acid, it looks like. But if the morning is hard to be told to eat. It wants tea, same biscuits or bread, ma'am."

"For a long time Tiara's husband was bule-rich," he continued with a small laugh

"Try the doctor, Ti. Before the disease gets worse!" Mother's orders.

"Udah, Mom! Cape told the doctor. But you don't want to, just keep refusing."

Bu Nurul feels something strange happened to Nath. But he tried to shake that thought. He is afraid if the things he thinks do not match the reality. He was afraid that his son and daughter-in-law were disappointed.

"It's over, Mom." Tiara placed the ready-to-fry parchment on the table near the stove.

"The eggs haven't been peeled, Ti." Bu Nurul pointed at the boiled egg that had been soaked in cold water in the bowl.

Tiara picked it up and sat back down and peeled it off. Four eggs that will also be served as a complement when eating soto later.

"Naura how's your school, Ra?" tiara asked her sister who had just finished mopping the floor and returned the mop tool to the back.

"Surfing, brother. Just sometimes dizzy because the lesson I do not understand," said Naura who sat on the floor with him.

The 2nd grade junior girl was just watching her brother who was peeling a boiled egg.

"Try private, Ra. I think it needs to be! If you want to go to your favorite high school." Tiara's advice to her sister.

"Ura wants to enter the Light of Nations, brother!"

"Bang Rion's school?" Naura nodded slowly.

Bu Nurul who was frying parchment listened to his daughter's wishes. "That expensive school, Ra."

"Or, Mom! That's why it must be the same way to learn to teach, ma'am."

"Alumni there are also many who managed to get into public universities, ma'am."

Tiara nodded in understanding. "You are private, sister advised. There's a very tough competition. And there are scholarships for high-achieving students!."

"Lumayan if you can get a scholarship, Ra. Ease mom's spending with dad."

"Where, Mom?" ask Naura to her mother.

"Yes, if you want, it doesn't matter, Ra. But you don't play mostly. I don't want to waste my spending on a private teacher if you're not serious about learning."

"Yes, Mom."

"Bronghom, Ra. Private teachers are not cheap. But later you will talk to your brother to help pay a private teacher for you." Tiara stood up and laid the eggs on the dining table. There is also soun, bean sprouts and cabbage that are ready to eat.

"Mom is still ready, Ti. Don't help us a little. You have a husband and in-law, Ti. I'm afraid they're thinking macem macem."

"Tia helped the mother also with the consent of Tia's husband, Mom. Tia realized she didn't bring anything and now Tia has it because she's married to her brother."

"Baby brother, brother. Bang Nath loves brother."

Tiara looked at her sister then squinted her eyes. "You like brother's husband? Don't even try it!"

Tiara makes Naura flutter. "Yes Allah. Astagfirullah, brother!"

"This is it, Mom. If the bucin is coming to the bone marrow! Haha."

"Blind hunt!" Naura held onto her stomach which felt tense from being too excited to laugh. "Yes, he wants to call his feet. Guys a lot of times, brother. The more handsome and the younger are also many."

Instead of being hurt, Naura even laughed at her brother who she thought was too far away.

"Udah, ah. Ura's stomach ache, Mom." Naura got up and was about to enter her room.

"Sister, don't watch flying fish soap operas!"

"Oh, you know ah. Halu brother distance." Naura had already disappeared from the kitchen leaving Tiara who was annoyed at being laughed at.

What's wrong if he warns her not to actually happen. She was just afraid of losing her husband, who she thought was amazing.
