Me And You For Us
Ephraim - Efrima.

On the other side of the earth; the two sons of Kandara were one year old. They are getting smart to interact with people around them. On their first Birthday, Kandara did not have a celebration party. She prayed and thanked her mother in the morning, because her two children could grow up well and healthy.

"Well, if you want to invite your office friends, no papa. Mama's gonna cook a little today." Said Mrs Selvine as they had breakfast at the dinner table.

"Good, Ma. All right, Dara said for Dara's birthday. So they can come all. Later until the office, Dara info to Mama." Kandara remembers five days ago was her twenty-fourth birthday.

Upon arriving at the office, Kandara saw that all her colleagues were already in the programmer's room. "Mas Mala and Mas Toby, come home later in the afternoon. Mama's cooking for my birthday and twins." Said Kandara, while approaching Mala and Toby's table.

"Ok, we'll be home from work." Mala and Toby said.

"Are we both alone?" Toby asked, looking at Kandara.

"No, Mas. Everyone was invited too, because of Dara's birthday five days ago." Said Kandara while pointing at his comrades.

"Then you said Mr. Ari. Who knows if he wants to come. If anything else, let it be Mala's business." Toby said, then looked at Mala with a smile.

Kandara went straight to Pak Ari's room, while Mala conveyed it to the others. "Friends of all, who want to eat for free, will return to our office to Dara's house, yes. We're invited to eat, because of Dara's first birthday twins and her birthday five days ago." Mala said, smiling.

"Ashiiik, we'll meet twins." Said Yeni and Rina girang. After Kandara came out of Pak Ari's room, she found out that all her friends were coming. It was sent directly to his mother.

In the afternoon after returning home from work, everyone went to Kandara's house in their own vehicles. Some use cars, some use motorcycles. Kandara's in Toby's car.

"Well, are you happy with what you're doing right now?" Toby asked, when Kandara had been sitting in her car.

"Yeah, Mom. Praise God. Dara is happy with her kids and mom. This was enough for Dara. Thank you, too, for spending time with the kids." Said Kandara with dewy eyes.

'The important thing is that you live it happily, I will let you go.'  Toby. When Kandara asks him to be Papa Babtis of her children, Toby realizes, Kandara considers him nothing more than an older brother to her.

Yaah... Toby has seen it all in a different way, because he knows Kandara thinks of him and Mala as Big Brother, as his family. So when asked to be a Baptist Papa for his children, Toby felt it was more than enough.

"Yeah, if there's any need for anything, or trouble something don't hesitate to contact me. I will always help you and the kids. If you and the children are happy, I will feel calm and happy. Remember that." Said Toby, who had been moved. Kandara immediately lowered her head, as she could feel Toby's sincere affection for her and the children.

'Excuse me, I'm Mas Toby. I can't repay your love properly.' Kandara said in her heart.

"Heeiii, what's wrong with you? No, don't think about it. Later when it comes down, they think I've made you sad. Mala could make me see millions of fireflies." Toby said, trying to joke around. Because she knew, a little more Kandara would cry. His face began to blush.

"Hehehee..." Kandara laughed at Toby's joke.

"Well, can they ask for a gift yet? I haven't been out looking for gifts for them." Toby diverted the conversation.

"Yaaa, my goodness. They can't talk, and don't buy too many toys for them. Me and Mama cape' ngerapiinnya." Said Kandara, smiling.

"Then, tomorrow-tomorrow I'll replace it with another." Toby said casually.

"Gosh, that's not it. I mean, don't pamper them too much. They won't hear me." Kandara said, more calm.

"Ooh, if that's it, you just tell me. Don't worry, don't enjoy me. Let's not clash with you." Toby said, starting to understand.

"Kiss..." Said Toby, patting Kandara on the shoulder slowly.

When he got home, his friends started coming. Kandara immediately helped Miss Selvine in the Kitchen to prepare dinner.

His office friends are very happy to be invited by Kandara. Because besides being able to have a delicious dinner, they can be satisfied to play with Efraim and Efrima, the names of Kandara children who are more handsome and beautiful adorable.

Both Kandara children were baptized at the age of eight months, at Christmas time at the end of last year. Because Manche used Christmas and New Year holidays to return to Indonesia. So you can all take a vacation and be present when the children of Kandara are baptized.

Manche and Toby became Mother and Baptist to Ephraim and Efrima. Toby accepts gladly, when Kandara asks him to be godfather to his children.

Manche became godmother at her own request when they were born. So Kandara's baptismal time had to discuss with Manche, in order to come to Indonesia.

When Ephraim and Ephrima were baptized, Lucha was present. Knowing Kandara had twins and was being baptized he wanted to congratulate her, but canceled her because he saw Manche not stay away from Kandara. So did Miss Selvine and Toby. That kept him away from them.

Lucha did not expect, Kandara lived everything with joy. The happiness on his face was not something to be made up of. She seemed so happy to be a mother.

All the slanted remarks that were often thrown by the people around him did not affect him at all. He ignored and silenced the mouths of many in his own way.

It made Lucha want to meet him. But Kandara always had a way of avoiding it. Kandara knows, Lucha can't control her mouth. He did not want to break his heart by hearing Lucha's words.

After dinner, his friends continued to play together. Especially the more monopolistic Yeni played with Efraim, because he was very handsome.

"Yeniii, replace it with another. It's just you who want to run it." Lina protested, and was about to take Ephraim, but Yeni avoided her.

"Well, you'll share a recipe for me, how to make a handsome boy like this, yaa." Yeni said while moving away from Rina. It made Lina upset and pouty. But the other friend saw it with a smiling and astonished face.

"Goddessa, Yeniii. You think making a kid like baking dough? So don't just learn codingan." Mala sneered at Yeni, the others laughed.

"You better take a self-course with Mas Toby. Who knows the result is just as good." Said Mr. Ari, because he knew Yeni had a heart with Toby.

"Cityuaah... Good proposal, Mr. Ari." Yeni said, and greeted with boisterous laughter of his friends.

"Vuuualah... I can't be independent, sir. Usually helped by Mala, he's the expert. Hehehee." Toby laughed, while looking at Mala. Kandara and Bu Selvine smiled at all of their laughter.

After being satisfied to play with a twin, friends of Kandara pamit go home. Mala and Toby are still playing with twins. "It doesn't feel like they're a year old, huh. Though it was as if they had been born a while ago." said Mala, and Toby assented while looking at Ephraim and Efrima.

"Yeah, time passes quickly, it doesn't feel like they've grown up." Said Toby, touching the twin cheeks.

"Yeah. I can't wait to see them big. Must be a snatch like Om Mala and Om Toby." Mala smiled. Toby patted Mala on the shoulder and smiled.

"Yuuuk, let's go home. So they can rest." Take Toby, and Mala smiles. After everything came home, the house returned. Miss Selvine and Kandara prayed in gratitude for the extraordinary day God made for them.
