Because of the compulsion

Siuman Rahma

"Ma, I'm pregnant with Mama's granddaughter" said Viona, sitting next to Rahma who was still lying weak. "Mama must be happy, right to hear it?" Viona rubs Rahma's cold hands, giving a soft squeeze, hoping that her mother-in-law will soon come to her senses.

There was no Marshal in the room. Viona kicked him out, being so sick of seeing the man's face continue to stand before her. Viona is always nauseous and doesn't want to be close. Fortunately Marshal wanted to stay away with the reason that he would bring food for him. Viona doesn't care where Marshal wants to go, she just wants to be away from Marshal, doesn't want to linger looking at him.

Viona's condition has been better, even not feeling nauseous since Marshal left. He only spoke to Rahma who was still in an unconscious state. She felt sorry to see her mother-in-law. The impact on Rahma's head made her this way. Her mother-in-law had a wound inside her head, so her level of consciousness was very low and difficult to regain.

"Marshal is so happy to know his son has grown, Ma. Do you want to be quiet like this, not want to be happy? My mom always asks for a new grandchild. I gave it to him, Ma. Grandchild Mama. He's Marshal's son, Ma. My granddaughter is very young, maybe in the next eight months you can just carry. Mama must be happy to hear that, right?" Viona monologues again to Rahma.

Suddenly the hand he had wiped from earlier felt warm. Viona rubbed it even more and grasped it tightly. Noticing Rahma's pale face, Viona was shocked as her in-laws' hands moved. With a shocked look on her face, Viona confirmed again, if the one moving inside her grasp was Rahma's hand. And the fingers were again disturbed, even if only a weak movement.

Viona was thrilled to see such a good response from her in-laws. He immediately pressed the red button next to the bed, calling the doctor to come immediately.

Not only did the doctor arrive, but two nurses and her husband panicked and were shocked to enter the room. Viona stayed away to let the doctor check on her mother-in-law. Marshal looks unsettled and thumping just like him. They are waiting for the results of the doctor's examination.

Marshal saw Viona who was just silent in her arms. He regained consciousness and immediately released his wife's body, then moved away. Hearing Rahma being able to respond with movement, Marshal was unusually happy and involuntarily hugged his wife's body directly. He forgot that Viona did not want to get close to him.

Viona saw the Marshal was silent, her expression was again difficult to guess.

"sorry. I'm too happy. Thanks, Honey. You've made Mama better."

Viona simply fell silent, saying nothing and choosing to look the other way. His hands hugged each other's bodies. Viona rubbed her arm, as if she was indeed cold.

Seeing that Marshal can only be confused. It felt like he was clutching that weak body tightly. Gave a warm kiss on his wife's forehead. He wanted to do it all, but he couldn't. She fears Viona's emotions again and drives her away to go away, then Viona doesn't want to see her again until whenever and takes their child away.

No. gabe. Marshal was afraid that something bad was happening. Giving up is better for now.

Until the doctor finished with the examination, a smile was clearly visible on his face. He approaches Marshal and Viona, who approach, is curious about the news of Rahma.

"The lady is already past her coma. His consciousness is starting to normalize again and is likely to improve soon. But, for now the madam still needs a lot of rest and has not recovered, consciously optimally. It's best to let it go, no one's bothering him."

"Good, Doc. Thank you very much."

The doctor left the two of them and finally looked at each other. Both are silent, want to reach out to channel happiness, but equally hesitant to do so.

"May I hug you?"

Viona just kept quiet, not saying anything. The marshal could not help himself, slowly he approached and Viona did not open her voice not even a little away from him. And so, he got closer and closer again until he could reach Viona's body and hug her tightly. Viona did not refuse and just kept quiet.

"Mama will be fine, Chal," whispered Viona, barely audible to the ears.

Marshal nodded his head quickly, moved and happy. If there was Viona then her happiness would double as it is today.

It seemed, all the suffering caused by the mistake and ended in separation, had now paid off all with the happy news that made Marshal feel alive again.

Marshal's embrace is unraveling. She smiled warmly at Viona who had just been quiet from earlier, but inside her eyes Marshal could see, if Viona felt the same way. Marshal's hand rubbed his wife's flat stomach, the smile widened. His heart thump is crazy to do that. Untold happiness and it feels amazing when Viona also does not refuse his treatment.

"Thank you, honey. And thanks to the fetus that has awakened the mother. Thanks to this happy news, my mother regained consciousness. Mama must be so happy to hear that." Marshal's eyes glazed over, piercing through the glare of Viona's eyes that began to warm.

Finally, Viona slowly started to warm up. Even as Marshal approached and clasped his hand again, Viona did not chase him away again. Only a few times he seemed to vomit, but Viona seemed to hold him back. If Marshal asks, he just gives a faint smile and says no. She's doing just fine. Always answer like that. Though Marshal was already scared and worried, Viona would be like before again.

***

The good news about Rahma's condition has reached everyone, even Marshal has informed all his family and soon they will come and give thanks happily.

Marshal holds a bowl of porridge for his wife. He tried several times to persuade Viona to eat. His wife still did not want to. He changed to bring other foods, even Viona's favorite fruit salad and chocolate pudding. Viona still shook her head, when forced to eat.

Marshal saw him worried. Viona had been vomiting a lot since then, all of her stomach was gone. He had to eat food, at least for the material he was about to vomit so as not to squeeze the liquid in his stomach.

"No way!" Viona refused again and instead returned nauseous and ran to the bathroom.

Marshal exhaled a rough breath looking at it. Every day Viona was like that without her tending. It is a pity that his wife is so tormented. He didn't see it. But, Marshal also could do nothing, other than strive to make Viona comfortable. And she was indeed a little relieved, as Viona no longer chased her away.

"Ck, I don't want to be carried!" reject Viona again, looking annoyed as Marshal tries to hold her. He was weak, but being with Marshal did make his stomach even more wrapped. Since then he tried to be quiet, out of pity to see Marshal. Despite her turbulent stomach, Viona tried not to push her husband away. But, still she was sick of seeing her husband's face at this moment.

Viona walked lethargic out of the bathroom. Marshal follows her behind, stretches her arms beside her body, keeps Viona from falling and stays in good balance while walking.

"Papa?" Viona looked at Vishnu who was in a wheelchair, looking at them. Behind him was Rio who nodded his head and smiled at Viona. "Why when is it coming?" Viona smiled widely, approaching Vishnu with a head that began to feel dizzy.

"Must." Vishnu smiled happily, although a surprised look was clearly visible on his face, finding Viona there along with the Marshal.

Marshal did not say, if Viona was with him. He just told me that Rahma had awakened. Rio did not say anything. Unexpectedly, it turns out that the favorite daughter-in-law is present and surprised Vishnu who really hopes Viona continues to always be in the circle of his family.

"What's how's it going? I'm sorry, I didn't get to go home."

"It's okay. Papa is better. Only papa's legs haven't been strong for long standing." Vishnu smiled, rubbing Viona's hand. "You look pale, son. You sick? Have you eaten?" Vishnu glanced at the table where there was a lot of food. He looked again at Viona who was shaking her head instead.

"Pa's." Marshal approached Vishnu, wrapped his hands around Viona's waist suddenly, making his wife turn her head quickly.

Seeing that Vishnu was surprised, really could not believe seeing those who already looked better than the previous news he knew. Viona did not try to pull over, even away. Are they not separated? Vishnu hope so. She doesn't want to lose a daughter-in-law as good as Viona.

"Viona is not sick. He's pale because of Papa's grandchild."

Vishnu was stunned, digesting his son's speech. He looked at Marshal and Viona alternately, it was hard to get a word out of his mouth.

"Viona's pregnant with my son." Marshal's gaze looked very happy, rubbing his wife's flat stomach. "Papa's grandson."

Vishnu could not hold haru. Her outstretched hand grabbed Viona to get closer and gave a hug of congratulations, also thanking her for conceiving a new descendant of Atmadina.

"So she's fine, son! Take care of your body condition as well. Don't let them not eat late! Papa's granddaughter can't starve in there."

Viona nodded her head slowly, a clear smile on her lips. Marshal also smiled widely, only this time he saw the smile rise when discussing her pregnancy. Does that mean, if Viona is already accepting and happy with her presence?
