"Where's Liyo's sister, Omy?" rio asked while looking left and right.
Rio already impatiently wanted to see sister. Rio wants to play with his brother soon. Rio had already imagined whatever he wanted to play with his sister.
"Ah that…."
"Where's Pa? Liyo ndak cabal wants to liyat Liyo's sister," Rio asked impatiently.
They were silent at Rio's question. What should they say to a child as small as Rio.
"Rio, if we want a sister we have to be patient" said Reza who made adults glance at Reza.
They were hoping that Reza could explain to Rio.
"Fire tata Papa, adi Liyo dah unya sister," Rio said scowling.
"Rio can't wait to have a sister?" connect Dilla.
"Yes Omy," Rio replied in spirit.
"Rio, my sister is not yet. So we have to wait patiently," said Rita reassured.
"Why hasn't Nek?"
"Daddy said our sister's currently in Mommy's stomach. We have to wait about 7 months" Rafa said.
Rafa once asked Dafa about this.
"Nature peyut?" rio asked in disbelief.
The spirit of Rio who was stirring now immediately plummeted. Rio's eyes immediately turned towards Dilla's stomach.
"Right now it's in Mama's stomach" said Dilla, stroking her stomach.
"Adi Liyo's sister is in Omy's rickshaw?" rio asked to make sure again.
Dilla nodded her head in response.
"Omy ahat!" rio shouted an angry tone.
They all looked towards Rio in surprise. Never once did Rio say in such a high tone to Dilla.
"Why is Rio angry with Mama?" dilla asked in surprise.
"Omy ahat's. Omy matan Liyo's sister," Rio said in a loud tone.
They were speechless with Rio's words. They did not expect that Rio would think like that.
"Rio, that's not what Ma meant…."
"With swords. Liyo agi even cama Omy. Omy ahat his eyes younger sister Liyo," Rio said cutting off Dilla's words.
Rio also put away the hand of Dilla who wanted to touch Rio. Dilla was not angry with Rio's attitude, instead Dilla was getting anxious with Rio. Rio was indeed unpredictable.
"Rio listen to what Mama said first" said Ryan to help Dilla.
"No way," Rio refused.
Rio was still staring at Dilla with a contrived glare. His eyes occasionally turned to Dilla's stomach. Rio was sad to imagine the fate of his sister who had been eaten by Dilla. They scratched their heads not knowing how to respond to Rio's thoughts.
"Rio's never seen Mama make cookies?" dilla asked after thinking about how to deal with Rio without polluting Rio's innocent brain.
Rio nodded his head without answering.
"Did Rio know why Mama had to put the cake in the open. That hot square box?" ask Dilla carefully.
"Bial tue na adi Omy," Rio replied.
"Well, so too if we want a sister. The sister should also be included like entering into the open as well so that her sister so. The difference goes in your stomach. Does Rio understand?" dilla.
Rio understood because he had seen Mama make cakes.
"When making a cake we also have to wait until the cake is cooked. Likewise with my sister, we also have to wait patiently for her," said Dilla again.
"Omy old fire, Omy" said Rio pouting.
"Try Rio compare the big cake that Omy made with Rio's sister later. Which is bigger?" tanya Dilla directed Rio to understand.
"Becal dong Omy's sister. Makak Liyo's sister tecil tek tue, later Liyo's sister bica dimatan ticus," Rio replied.
They chuckled at the answer from Rio.
Rio no longer removed Dilla's hand from her head. Rio nodded in understanding. Rio could digest what Dilla said.
"So Rio must be patient."
"Liyo ndak cabal Omy," whined Rio.
"If Rio's impatient, Rio's sister won't be" Jelita continued.
Rio was increasingly pouting hearing Jelita's words.
"Patience to you, baby. Everything takes time and process" said Dilla.
"Yes Omy, Liyo or cabal," Rio said unwillingly.
They were relieved if Rio could understand. They breathed a sigh of relief and drank water to get more relieved.
"Adi Omy, where's Liyo's sister's cala in Omy's mouth?" ask Rio again.
"Uhuk uhuk…."
They coughed together hearing Rio question again. Now Rio's question is harder than the first one. They were back dizzy with Rio's question. It is very difficult if you have a child whose thinking power is quite high and extensive curiosity.
Dilla was twitching her head in dizziness. Dilla no longer knew what reason to ask Rio.
"Rio's sister is there because Rio isn't naughty. Rio also wants to be a good brother, therefore Rio's younger brother is present," said Ryan who no longer knows what reason to look for.
"Adi Liyo or is there a big brother?" rio asked with sparkling eyes.
"Yes, Rio will be a brother" Ryan said.
Rio was very happy when he imagined that he would be called brother.
"Telus Omy, what…."
"Oh yes, Mama has brought gifts for Rio," said Dilla immediately handed over the souvenirs she had to Rio.
Dilla deliberately cut off Rio's question for fear that Rio would ask a strange one again.
Rio gladly accepted the gift.
"Where's Reza Ma made?" ask Reza.
"There is, Mama and Papa bought also for Rafa and others," said Dilla.
They finally open the souvenirs that were brought home by Ryan and Dilla. Rio had also been focusing on souvenirs without recalling the same question he had.

The night came again with the moonlight that illuminated the darkness of the night. Inside Dafa's house was begging Jelita to be allowed into their room.
"No, you're sleeping outside tonight" Jelita said.
"But baby, it's cold outside. Are you the same as me?" ask Dafa with a face made sad.
"It's your own fault. Why are you talking no-no to our child" Jelita said in annoyance.
"That's because Rafa asked me. So I just answered her question, baby," Dafa denied.
"You're a big boy, but Rafa's a kid. You don't do that twice" Omel Jelita.
"Sorry baby, I promise you I won't do it again" Dafa promised
"Yes, I will forgive you. But tonight you will sleep outside" Jelita said.
"But baby."
"Sleep outside the room or sleep in front of the porch" Jelita said, folding her hands together.
"All right I give up" said Dafa giving up.
After hearing Dafa's reply, Jelita immediately entered the room and closed the door. Dafa who did not know where to sleep ended up choosing to head to Rafa's room. Dafa did not want if he slept on the sofa, which was on the morning of tomorrow he would be sick all over.
"Everything goes awry, having kids who aren't smart we bother. Having a smart child we bother too" Dafa said as he headed to Rafa's room.
