Dusk Sky

Dusk Sky
Back to Jakarta


The footsteps clashed with the vast airport floor. In front of the arrival door was seen a woman and a little girl waving amid dozens of other people who were also waiting for someone to arrive.


Dusk was about to run towards them. Spilling longing on his sister-in-law and nephew. But a large hand blocked his arm. Prevent him from doing his thing.


"Remember being pregnant, don't run!" husband reminded. In the man's arms, baby Anna was sleeping.


Dusk whined and rubbed his stomach. Back to walking side by side with her husband and parents.


A week ago, he just graduated. And after everything about his education was done in the care, they returned to the homeland together. Leaving friends who had accompanied him in NY. A friend who took it off with tears and sadness.


"I promise to visit you later. And don't forget to tell me if any of you changed your cell phone number to keep our communication awake" he said when they split up in NY.


Knowing them for about four years makes them quite meaningful. And parting from them also left its own sorrow for Dusk. Especially Maureen and her family who are like their own family in the land of people.


But his sense of happiness can finish education well and return to the homeland is greater than his sadness. Returning to the warm embrace of the family was something he had long since missed.


"Anna.. Anna's.. Annaa.." cried Orange so they stayed a few meters away. Making the little girl who felt called to tiptoes shocked from her sleep.


Baby Anna is not the type of baby that cries easily. The eight-month-old baby was just yawning and gnawing. Look around confused.


"There's Anna, I'm missing!" grunts Dusk. "Older part of it gets louder, yee?"


Orange chuckles. It's true, he was quiet. After marriage, he was more talkative and more cheerful. Perhaps the warmth of her new family was also the happiness that her husband gave her, making her as happy as she is today.


"Because I'm happy, Ja" he said with a twinkle in his eyes that further affirmed his happiness. "More with this, nih."


Dusk stunned to see his best friend and sister-in-law rubbed her flat stomach. "E-lo.. pregnant too?" his eyes blinked in disbelief. Soon he immediately hugged the orange with happiness that was so noticeable. "I never thought I would get pregnant... Just smile, not."


Farri who was beside the wife smiled at the behavior of the two. Alternately, he rubbed the heads of his sister and his wife.


"Truly, is Orange pregnant, bang?" Tiara couldn't believe the interference, happy to hear it. Not until two weeks she and her husband left, another happy news has welcomed their return.


"Yes, mah. Two days ago Orange fainted, fitting brought to the doctor was again pregnant 10 weeks."


Tiara hugged her son. "Mama names her horror, bang. Mama Otw grandmother of five grandchildren" he said followed by another laugh.


"I don't want to lose to Dusk, ma'am. When he was newly married he wanted two children, I was still one." Orange turned around to hug the mother-in-law who still hugged her husband.


They continued the chat in a restaurant where Vindra was waiting. Dinner together to celebrate the success of Dusk in education and celebrate the news of the Orange pregnancy.


***


After one week of enjoying the company of the family, Baskara was asked to come to a family-owned company. To be introduced as the successor of the company.


She wants to enjoy her role as a housewife. Taking care of husband and children. Pay more attention to Anna and the fetus in the womb. Before you are ready to continue the dream.


"When to be CEO, mas?" tanya Dusk helps her husband get ready in the morning.


Grace's father was the one who was trusted to run the company after Baskara's grandfather died. Surely remain with the confidants of the late grandfather Lazuardi.


"Keep what?"


"Vice. Learn until you really can."


Actually Baskara wants to set up his own startup. Started all from scratch with his own efforts like his father-in-law.


But besides Oma strictly forbid, because his father also did not want to inherit the company. Baskara also does not have the expertise to raise capital on his own. Unlike his father-in-law who had planned from the beginning.


Working in the company of others is not possible. He and Oma could be in conflict again. It was enough of the previous conflict that had made their relationship stretch. Do not have any further conflict. Moreover, Oma's relationship with Dusk is warm.


"Let's lunch at the office? we're having lunch together."


Dusk nodded. "But I again want to eat chicken taliwang same rawon ribs in Menteng it you know mas."


Actually, Baskara is the laziest out at lunchtime which can be sure the streets must be jammed. But for his wife, what can I do. "OKAY. We'll be there later. Anna wants to be taught too?"


"No ah. Poor thing." said. "Let her be at home with Sisi's sister. We want to both you, mas." he said spoiled by hugging the husband's arm and leaning his head there.


Baskara chuckles and kisses his wife's forehead. "Ready to the queen. Whatever he wants, it's gonna be empty of effort."


Come to think of it, once there was a baby Anna, they indeed never had time together. So it never hurts to go both ways to strengthen their inner bond.


"Do you want a babymoon? we haven't had a honeymoon yet." he bargained.


Dusk thought about it for a moment. "Later if the pregnancy has been a little bit edean. I'd like to be satisfied playing with baby Anna."


Baskara nodded in agreement. He just wants to make his wife happy. So whenever his wife wants, it doesn't matter.


After marriage, the priority is no longer happiness. But the happiness of him, the man he betrays. He is the one he brought into his life. And now increased with the happiness of their love.


As long as his wife's child is happy, that's enough to make him happy. Because he basically has no other social life outside the home.


From childhood until high school, his friends only Dusk and Orange. Even in college, he was not really close to his friends. Until he married Dusk, his world was all about the girl. His world was Dusk, so as long as his woman was happy, it was more than enough to make her happy as well.


It is time to fight for their future. Struggling to stand on your own feet. No longer continuously expect funding support from parents for the continuity of household cash.
