Being a Connecting Mother

Gossip

Adira sat down by squeezing her fingers earlier.

“ You are very nervous ya ” remarks Helena that sounds like a question.

Adira shook her head slowly, not because of waiting for the examination which made her nervous to sit in the waiting chair of this village puskesmas.

“ Adira wahh long time no see ” exclaimed a woman who is also with a stiff movement because she was pregnant and immediately sat next to Adira.

“ This is what makes me disturbed and want to immediately check this quickly ends ” , lethargic Adira in heart.

“ Ahh.iya bu ” replied Adira briefly knew the person next to her that would immediately throw words that seemed to judge and of course corrosive to Adira.

“ I am very curious why your husband has not come yet even though your ham has been this big ” said the woman relaxed with eyes staring nanar.

“ I've guessed he finally put out these words again ”

“ Ehh..iya loh Dira tell your husband to come, time until giving birth even your husband sleep does not come? ” another woman began to reply, with the same intention.

Gossip does start when someone starts insinuating the topic, then there will be some other people who join to bring down the person who stumbled over the gossip.

“ My husband is under contract to work abroad, there's no way I'm forcing him to leave work ” Adira replied reaffirming.

“ Yes we know you've said that a few times, but there's no time off. During your stay here your husband never showed up ”

Adira gritted her teeth holding in anger, those words had indeed gone too far. But if he shows anger here then the aim of those cunning women will be achieved.

“ Mothers are easy to say that because they do not know the cost of returning from abroad is expensive, besides my husband can meet all my needs here alone is enough. Than I had to force her to stay together but our living expenses were less ” by purposely Adira slipping insinuations at the end for the women to self-conscious a little.

They also live with her husband, but do not live a better life than Adira.

“ Salary abroad is big, but the wife needs a husband and child figure needs a father figure. You will know that soon later, money is not everything ”

Adira's head feels hot to hear those words, no matter how she lies but it's true she won't be able to give a father figure to her son. It really pierced his heart.

“ Money is not everything, but without money it can feel dead. Making love as much as possible will not make us full mothers hahahahaha ” Helena said that while laughing lightly in front of the women.

“ Basic Helen.You must change your rude way of speaking ” rebukes the woman again for not liking Helena who insulted them blatantly.

“ True your speech was very frontal ” other protests, which were answered by whispers that agreed.

“ My rude speech that bothered you or because my words were right. Partially if you do not want to be in the middle do not nudge first ” reply Helena relaxed then give the queue number that she had taken after registering Adira.

The women fell silent, whispering occasionally about Helena and Adira.

“ I'm really uncomfortable with them ” whispered Adira quietly to Helena.

“ Do not ask me not even stand if long listen to the rumors, they are indeed less work ” Helena continues her scolding about the women even though spoken slowly.

Until Adira's queue number is called, Adira then stands up and steps into the examination room.

“ Hi ” greet Derril with sparkling eyes see it turns out the patient who entered his room is Adira.

Adira replied with a gentle smile.

“ If I know you're in line I'll call you first ”

“ Where can it be like that, Doc. That's nepotism ”

“ Hahahaha..I never win arguing with you ”.

The nurse in the room was stunned to see the change in the attitude of Derril, who usually seemed friendly but would not show this sexual expression in front of the patient.

The Doctor Derril before him now instead laughed and casually joked with the woman who was his current patient.

“ You will still daydream here ” Derril sound slightly raised.

“ Hah? Sorry Doc. I was less focused what did the doctor say? ” the nurse woke up from her daydream.

Derril shook his head slowly, he was indeed not a doctor who liked if his staff were unfocused while on duty.

“ Bring her vitamin B syringe, if you can't focus on asking others to replace you ”

The nurse moved quickly as soon as Derril repeated his orders.

Adira felt a little amazed because it was rare to see Derril who was assertive and professional at work, especially when Derril really insisted that the nurse should be able to focus.

“ Excuse me for a moment yes I will inject this will not hurt too much ” Derril's voice softens again as he reveals a little Adira's sleeves, wiping Adira's arm that will be injected with alcohol and according to what Derril said the injection was not too painful.

“ Finished ” Derril reveals it as if giving praise to Adira.

“ Thank you Doc ”

“ Equally, but in a few days you may feel cramping and a bit of linu in the legs. It could even be a little swollen due to the effects of the injection, do not worry too much it is reasonable ”

Adira nodded her head slowly, she had already received vitamin B injections before so had little idea of the effects that would be caused.

He got up slowly from the chair and stepped intending to leave the examination room, but soon his hand was grabbed by Derril.

“ Hmm.Is there anything else you still need to check Doc? ” said Adira was surprised because suddenly Derril clasped his hand.

“ No..Let me drop by outside ” gelagat Derril show his nervousness.

“ Oh troublesome Doctor only, I can myself Doctor ”

“ Adira is also for your good, after receiving the injection the body can react. I want to make sure you get out safely ” Derril tries to find an excuse after getting that subtle rejection.

“ Ohh..well I owe a lot to Doctor ”

“ Knock is my job, don't make mind load ”

Derril stepped in a spirit to guide Adira gently, adjusting to the movements of Adira who was also not as fast as he was.

“ Wah Doctor is very good until you have to be escorted out ” exclaimed a woman directly so that the presence of Adira attracts all the attention of the people in the waiting room.

Helena immediately took a quick step toward Adira did not want the nyinyir crowd to approach her best friend first.

“ That's why we always say Adira should come with her husband, if his physical condition is like this ”

“ Here there is no written examination rules must be attended with the husband. So stop giving such ultimatums ” Derril asserted to those women.

“ Then thank you very much, Doc. I'll be home soon ” Adira said slowly, then immediately grabbed Helena's invitation and walked together.

Derril gave a sharp look to the women who had been insinuating Adira, he let out a long sigh of annoyance and immediately re-entered the examination room.

“ The woman is very smart to reach the stepping stone ” throw a woman with a little hard so that it can be heard by Adira.

“ The important thing is that it does not harm you at all. Next time please keep my words quiet does not mean I will let you guys say any nonsense about me ” Adira turned to stare at the group.

“ Let's just say that annoying flies like buzzing to and fro. In fact, it can only carry the disease ” Helena invites Adira immediately go from there.

The women were still staring dislikefully at them, but did not dare to speak anymore. Because somehow we do want good or evil, if basically they already hate. It will remain hateful and it is based on envy.
