Dusk Sky

Dusk Sky
Approaching Birth


"Is there anything sick? baby is okay, right?"


Although Baskara will always ask the same questions every time they finish wrestling on the bed. But Dusk could not not laugh.


The larger the pregnancy, the more worried her husband looks when they do.


Just look at the worried face of her husband who was covering his body with a blanket.


"We're all right, baby.. If panic is so, why try?" goda.


Baskara pinched her lips which then pursed. "Where to hold." he said.


"Why should you be afraid?" ask Art again after calming his laughter.


"The color I love you guys. Don't want you guys to do anything. Anyway you two should stay healthy."


Dusk nodded and smiled gently. She held the jaws of her husband. It does not feel like their love journey can reach that point.


"Doain yes mas, let me be alone me and baby are both safe."


Baskara took his wife's body into his arms. Actually he was afraid to imagine how Dusk would feel pain. But this was the path they had to go through if they wanted offspring.


"Without you asking, I always doain you all the time" he said gently as he buried his face on the top of his wife's head.


"Yesterday mama telfon mas. Mama asked, we want to bring the mother at home to keep the baby or what? if you want, then pas mama-papa father-mother here on the day of your graduation, let mbak join all of you."


Baskara did not answer. He seems to think about it. "The baby was born a week after I graduated. I also went in for a long lecture, so while we are the ones guarding ourselves, ayy."


It's their first child, so Baskara doesn't want any other hands to help take care of their baby later. He does not want his son to be closer and have a stronger bond with others than with those whose parents. He wants them to learn to take care of their children from scratch.


"You sure you can afford it? I'm still in college?"


Baskara nodded without a doubt on his face. "You can stock a lot of ASI when you are in college. Leave all the same daddy." said Baskara steady by patting the left chest at the end of the sentence.


But somehow it just disturbs the feeling of twilight. He felt he did not take his role as a mother and wife well.


"Kok I'm rich selfish, huh, mas? leave our baby with you, while I go to college." lamented heartily.


"No dear" said Baskara. "Baby is your duty as a mother to nurse. But education is also an obligation that you must complete as a child. What else is this baby coming last. While you still have unfinished responsibilities."


"I promise to focus on our children after graduation" said Dusk later. Because what her husband said was true. He still has to complete his obligations one by one.


"Focusing time on baby doang. I ain't?"


Dusk chuckled at the sour face of her husband. "Focus you too dong, mas. I promise to focus on you two. Until the baby can be left, I'll re-design the ideals that are delayed."


"No need to promise anything. We just go for it." replied Baskara then before both of them fell asleep into the dream.


***


Twilight almost took out all the dresses he had. He could no longer wear his pants. It was uncomfortable to remember her belly that was bigger than the previous month. If last month the baby's weight was only 1kg. Yesterday when he and Baskara checked the content, their child's weight had reached 1.7kg. The increase is quite a lot compared to the second trimester.


"Come on Ayy, it'll be noon." Baskara poked her head at the door of the room.


"Lohs. How are you still wearing bathrobe?" hernia. And even more astonished to see the condition of their room which was like a broken ship. Twilight clothes are scattered on almost all sides of the bed and also the floor of the room.


"What clothes am I confused about?" she complains with teary eyes. "My stomach is this big. But look at the clothes." point to Dusk on the scattered clothes.


"And you got a lot of dresses, baby." Baskara went in and started to collect the clothes back for him to trim and return to his original place.


"His stress is short-pendeeeeekk.." Whiney twilight that will show signs of crying.


If pregnant women are more sensitive at the beginning of pregnancy. The closer the birth becomes more sensitive.


Whether it is affected by the anxiety of Dusk waiting for the day of birth or what, Baskara does not know. All he needs to do is be patient and obey what his wife wants. Trying not to offend his wife will make him sad. Although it feels difficult to do that. Because even the trivial things Dusk will be sad.


"The one you used to use for college where, ayy?"


Dusk stomped his legs irritated. Her tears are growing. Feeling her husband was the most inconsiderate young man.


"You're all laundry!" his screeches.


Baskara who was folding her clothes was a little surprised and blinked her eyes in shock.


He forgot if in addition to the increasingly sensitive mood. It is also a hobby to change clothes. I don't know how long his wife's strange habit has been going. He said that clothes that are used for too long are dirty and many germs. Dusk does not want their child to be affected by it. Be almost every two or three hours, Dusk will change clothes. Made their laundry a lot and now his wife is in a shortage of clothes.


"Emm okay, we'll buy yaaa. All buy baby equipment." the plan is now they will indeed go to the mall to buy baby equipment that they have not bought. Only one more month was their son born.


"What do I wear? not wearing clothes?!"


"Eh. Not that, dear dong. Try me pickin' ya?"


Baskara helped his wife choose clothes that were suitable for use. After finding a suitable one, he was able to breathe a sigh of relief as his wife had already returned smiling and entered the changing room to get ready.


While waiting for his wife, Baskara put the clothes he had folded neatly into the closet.


After Baskara graduated yesterday, indeed he did homework that was not done by people who had been done such as cooking and washing dishes and cleaning the room. He did not allow his wife to do anything even if it was just cooking.


His wife enough to go to college, do assignments and do not forget to take classes pregnant women. Prepare for the birth process later.


Baskara was also always ready to take his wife. He also always accompanied his wife to check the contents and classes of pregnant women.


Because it is not only Dusk that prepares itself for the process of giving birth and becoming a mother.


Baskara also prepared to be a husband and father on standby for the two angels.
