An Unwanted Marriage

Welcome to Athalla

Happy reading & ''Double

"The shadow of his little daughter when she died was always vividly remembered in his head and it made Andre's feelings very broken. He knew after this his life would not be easy anymore.

"You hear Andre ? Mama doesn't want to talk about this anymore and if you still want to remain part of the Tama family don't let your Papa know. There are quite a few problems you have given us. Do you realize that after the noble family broke their cooperation, our company immediately fell even though you have tried hard to build it again but our condition has not stabilized. Imagine if this scandal is known to people, we are all finished.". his mother growled while throwing the white envelope right on Andre's chest and he caught it.

Andre stood still, what his mother said was true. But still in his deepest self Andre felt an overwhelming sense of guilt. Not wanting to argue with the mother, Andre no longer answered or denied what his mother had said.

"Well, I get it. I won't talk about this anymore." said Andre with a heart that grieved with pain.

Morning greeted the holy verse and Sabina opened her eyes. Right now the windings of Gibran's hands are so comfortable.

Sabina looked at the face of her husband who was asleep, she smiled because she did not expect if she was now with Gibran and fell in love with the man who used to be her friend deeply.

Once both betrayed to be forced to be tied in the rope of marriage but over time the two accompany each other and strengthen each other until love grows slowly.

But when the love is blooming, there comes a wind that tries to shake it.

Jealousy, suspicion and misunderstanding do not necessarily make the love of both weaken. They choose to survive, and what has happened makes Gibran and Sabina's love stronger than ever.

"We did it," (we did it) Sabina muttered as she laughed softly.

He slowly moved Gibran's hand so as not to disturb his sleep and as Sabina used to do, he got up and limped down to a small table in his room and poured water into a glass and put it on the nightstand.

"Darling, waking up is almost dawn." Sabina shook her husband's body slowly and soon Gibran opened his eyes.

"Good morning" Sabina and Gibran smiled. The beautiful face of his wife wrapped in a smile is the thing Gibran wants most in every morning.

"Let's get up, we pray dawn together."

"Wait a minute" replied Gibran and he drank the water that his wife had provided. The simple things Sabina always does but makes Gibran feel happy.

Gibran prepares to go to the hospital, while Sabina is busy preparing breakfast with her mother-in-law.

It has been 3 days that Gibran's mother came from her hometown, she came to welcome the birth of her grandson who just counted the days.

Not only her mother-in-law, but her sister Sabina and her family have arrived in Jakarta to welcome their new niece. Even Maya's aunt who used to accompany Sabina on her wedding night will come to Jakarta to accompany Sabina to give birth.

Sabina's gratitude spoke repeatedly in her heart. He is truly happy to be surrounded by people who love him sincerely.

"Darling" Sapa Gibran stole a kiss from the lips of his wife who was carrying a plate containing breakfast for him.

Sabina's eyes bulged due to Gibran's sudden action of kissing her even though her mother was not far from them.

"What ?" ask Gibran with his innocent face.

Sabina pointed at the mother-in-law with her eyes and Gibran laughed softly because he did not realize that his mother was there.

"Sorry, baby, but the inn is always good every look at you." whispered Gibran.

They had been married for a year, but Sabina still blushed when her husband said sweet words to her.

"Hadeh you feel like a newlywed" said Gibran's mother who apparently knew what her son was doing.

" I'm so excited about my wife, ma'am" Gibran said.

"Mom's happy your relationship is good, may it go on like this."

" Yes ma'am, me and Bina have an unwritten agreement for our household."

"What deal ?" ask Gibran's mother with furrowed brows.

"We will endure each other under no circumstances and will not leave each other in a state of anger." replied Sabina as she looked into Gibran's eyes lovingly and Gibran did the same.

Her mother-in-law smiled with relief, she was happy to see her son live happily and marry the right woman.

"Don't forget our other covenants, we'll keep kissing*ta like rabbits." whispered Gibran and Sabina also pinched her husband's gaunt waist.

Gibran complained because of Sabina's slightly sore hands. He made his mother look at them.

"Let's eat first, don't joke around said Gibran's mother and the two followed suit.

***

Earlier this morning they were still joking and Sabina did not complain about anything but this afternoon she was surprised by Sabina's news saying some things that Gibran believed to be a sign that his wife was going to give birth.

"huh... Buildings... Sabina.my wife." said Gibran gasping with tired breath.

"Pull your breath and calm down, Bina is being examined by her obstetrician." Gibran's mother patted her on the child's shoulder to calm him down.

Before long a woman in a white suit came out of the room where Sabina was being examined.

"Mrs Sabina is already having an opening, it looks like she will give birth a few days ahead of the estimated date. Don't worry, this is normal and happens often." Said Dewi's doctor who was Sabina's obstetrician.

"Can I see the situation ?" gibran asked with his face looking worried.

"Of course you can" replied the doctor.

Gibran entered the ward where his wife was lying and the rest of the family was still waiting outside because only Gibran was allowed to enter at this time. It looked as if Sabina who was grimacing endured the pain.

"Honey" said Gibran and Sabina raised her face.

"My stomach hurts." - Sabina and Gibran complained.

Gibran kissed Sabina's forehead affectionately, Sabina closing her eyes as Gibran did that. The arrival of her husband made Sabina feel relieved.

Right next to Sabina lay a chair and Gibran sat there. Gently he gave subtle strokes on his wife's waist. And what Gibran did made Sabina calmer.

"Don't forget to pray a lot Bina." whispered Gibran and Sabina nodding her head at what Gibran suggested to her.

Time passed and Gibran faithfully accompanied, not once did he leave Sabina who still felt the pain that now more often came to him.

At 10pm, the sound of crying babies broke the silence. Gibran gave many kisses on the top of his wife's head that had given birth to their first son.

Gibran felt great happiness and he also felt a salute to Sabina who did not complain much, his wife grimaced with the pain without yelling or clawing at his hands like women do when they give birth.

With her eyes condensed, Gibran examined her newborn baby and was accompanied by a pediatrician.

Which Gibran feared did not happen. Her child was born with enough weight and gestational age even though Sabina had previously experienced a setback in her pregnancy caused by a long feud with her.

The baby boy that Sabina gave birth to was healthy and did not lack anything. Gibran expressed gratitude in his heart repeatedly.

In the hospital room that has been specially provided for Sabina.had gathered some people nearby who were waiting for the birth of the baby.

Gibran came with the baby in his lap wrapped in a blue blanket.

Everyone present there greeted him with enthusiasm and a sense of happiness. Sabrina's eyes condensed as Gibran walked closer to her.

"Hello all introduce Athalla Fahreza, which means the gift of the faithful god." Gibran said with pride.

"Athalla Fahreza Noble." Dad Sabina's.

"If you don't mind, I want Athalla to carry the name of His Majesty." continued Sabina's father.

"Of course Father, me and Sabina will be very happy" Gibran said with a happy smile that adorned his face.

Slowly Gibran handed Athalla to the lap of Sabina who was impatient to see her son.

"Hello Athalla, we finally meet. Mama, Papa and everything will give you a lot of love."
