Being a Connecting Mother
How Long Have You Known Adira?
“ Mas..” call Adira slim.
“ Yes what is it? You need something ” replied Zein quickly approached Adira, he could see Adira's eyes were still swollen because of a lot of crying earlier.
“ Someone wants to kill my baby.”
“ What do you mean? Can you explain why you think that? ”
“ Huh.about four days.then there are those who put boxes containing threats and terrible objects in it a-I.kira it might just be someone's prank but..now I almost lost my son Mas.”.
Zein grabs Adira's hand gently trying to calm the woman down.
“ What threats are in that box? ” ask Zein make sure again.
“ A letter there is written the sentence be prepared your baby will die.hiks..imagine it has scared me.Actually this is all the actions of who? Why do it to me? What's wrong with my baby? ”
“ Control yourself Adira you have to think about your condition and our child”
Adira pulls her hand from Zein's.
“ Can not keep saying our son Mas.I am not ready for all this ”
“ Alright we'll talk about it next time ”
“ Actually why do you not even want to be honest about the baby to me Adira, I know our relationship is complicated but at least you give me the opportunity to be responsible to you and our son ”
“ You should sleep, the doctor said you have to rest a lot. Everything will be fine leave everything to me and don't be afraid anymore. I won't let anyone hurt and.the baby is ”
Adira only replied with a small nod and closed her eyes slowly.
Zein sat on the bedside chair Adira looked after the woman until she fell asleep.
“ How is Dira? ” asked Helena to go into Adira's room to check on her friend's condition, but because she saw Adira who was asleep she chose to ask Zein.
“ Looks like he started to calm down a little, not as sweet as the previous ”
“ Thank goodness I was so scared that something unwanted happened. Oh.iya you can go home I'll keep your Adira quiet just ”
“ Huftt.” Zein took a long breath.
“ I beg you to let me stay here to look after Adira. I can't calm down seeing how he is currently ”
Helena tried to cradle first, indeed if she thought again the existence of the man there really had a big effect on calming Adira. Even Adira is much calmer if the man is the one talking to her.
“ Alright.but only until Adira's condition improves. I'm also worried lately he must have experienced a lot of mental stress ”
“ Earlier Adira had told about the threat box, can Miss Helena explain about it in more detail? ”
“ You don't need to be too formal with me, I'm the same age as Adira talk just relax. But to discuss it how about we talk about it somewhere else, not here. I'm a little afraid if Dira hears about the threat box that she'll have another panic attack ”
“ Alright..” reply Zein briefly then follow Helena step out of that room.
“ I'll show you directly the box containing the threat ” Helena opened the warehouse door and took the box out of a crate.
Zein received the box, after seeing the contents inside he clenched his hand tightly his anger peaked upon seeing it.
He knew the mental state of a pregnant woman was very unstable, he still remembered how mentally distressed Starla was when she was pregnant with twins Aidan and Nadia. Though at that time Starla faced only the fear of having to do a cesarean delivery or surgery.
Moreover, Adira who must get a threatening letter and a very terrible baby doll. Surely Adira will be depressed and filled with fear.
“ What has happened before? ” ask Zein seriously.
“ If you mean terror threats, this is the first time Dira gets something like this. Previously our life was safe oh.but I do not believe this is related or not that time Dira never felt there was someone stalking him when he walked alone ”
“ True Adira never also told me ”
“ Initially we suspected it was your doing ”
Although surprised to hear that Zein still tried to understand him because Adira also never suspected him who did it.
“ I can't possibly do such a thing and I hope you guys don't think this threat box is my deed ”
Helena stepped her foot out of the warehouse, as it felt like lingering in the warehouse was also stifling.
“ Of course I wouldn't think you're still human if you could do that to Dira, actually even until now I do not like your existence in this village ” said Helena honestly no matter how Zein responded to her.
“ For me the most important thing is Dira's happiness, while you guys are a painful past for her. By continuing to chase him like this you should know how selfish you are not to let him be happy ”
Helena's words were cruel but Zein could understand why the woman had said that.
“ What I did to Adira was very bad, and I regret that very much. The departure of Adira and the loss in my opinion is a punishment that I deserve ”
“ You are an adult compared to Dira and I who are still in their teens. You should already know the risks of all your actions. How long have you known Adira? ”
Zein was a little surprised to hear the question being thrown out all of a sudden.
“ I'm not sure maybe not until 1 year ”
“ Pftt.. ” Helena laughs breathlessly hearing that answer.
“ Sorry I can't hide my reaction to hearing that, hah.I myself have known Dira since childhood. The girl had originally moved next door to our house and lived alone with her father. At that time I was very envious of him because he could live happily together with his father ”
“ But it turns out that envious happiness did not last long, when his father remarried Dira's life changed drastically. Over time his stepmother took everything from his affection and also his happy childhood. After Dira has a half-brother, her father even starts to forget her while the violence committed by her stepmother never stops, what an irony is not it? ”
Zein silently could not answer anything in response to Helena.
“ Indeed not everyone is destined to live a life that is always happy, there are times when it is the toughest time of suffering. But it seems like Dira was unlucky for that, because of the cruelty of her parents she was indirectly sold to you like an item. For that reason too you can marry Adira right? ”
