Bride Choice

Lies for years

The desire to stand with him grew stronger. He who becomes blunt lives thousands of spoiled people in his employees, need someone to lean the body when feeling tired.

I wanted to be a container for her to pour out all her fretfulness and fidgetiness into a handkerchief that dried her tears. Become a berthing place when he ran out of energy to sail through the harsh waves of life.

I won't let him live it all by himself again. Let him not bury himself in the heart.

From the first night we slept together, tonight was the darkest night of his life. In my arms, she fell asleep like a baby in the warm embrace of her mother. He even sounded snoring. His face no longer looked as dignified as the night before. Drowning in falsehood.

"Have you been pretending to be asleep? Remember, your face always looks good. Not like tonight. Your mouth is gaping with a very loud snoring."

I peeked at his head. Stroked her hair and clenched it even tighter.

"Sleep, Juna. Rest your soul for a moment. From now on, we'll deal with whatever happens."

When my consciousness was only half, it felt like something wet was bothering my mouth. As my eyes opened slightly, Juna's face was so close to being seen.

"Emm." I squirm, keeping the body away from me.

"Wake, baby. It's noon already. I have to go to work."

"Go."

Juna who was very persistent, did not let myself just like that. He pulled back and turned my back on him.

"I haven't had breakfast this morning."

"My body is not good. It feels so tired."

"Is this a reason you should stay away from me?"

"No, honey. I really feel tired. My body is uncomfortable. My head feels a little throbbing."

"Are you sick?"

"I just want to rest a little longer. If my condition is fit, you can get breakfast, lunch and dinner in one day at a time."

"really? Very promising. All right, I'm giving up for this morning. Don't forget breakfast, I've prepared the table."

"Thank you."

He peeped all over my face, then left. I heard the door lock, then opened my eyes slowly. He's really gone.

My mouth feels sour. It felt like it had no head because it was so floating. The hot heart churned even though I had no history of stomach ulcers.

"I have to go to the doctor myself. Don't let Juna know I'm not well. He's already too much burden."

After breakfast and body cleansing, I called a taxi to go to the hospital. The hospital I chose was the place where my brother worked. Honestly, I really wanted to meet him. If we met by accident, it wouldn't embarrass me. Least.

"Mother Nyanika."

"Yes, sister."

I'll go in right away after getting my turn.

"After checking the condition and symptoms you are feeling, could it be that you are pregnant?"

"meaning?"

"Well, remember the last time you were in the month? And when you're in touch with your husband."

"I ...," I tried to remember the last time I came to the moon. "That's ... About two months ago, exactly I forgot."

"For more details, you should consult a gynecologist. I can't give you drugs or vitamins. Scared, You are really pregnant and certain drugs can damage the growth and development of the fetus in Your womb, Madam."

"Alright, Doc. I'll check my condition."

"Suster, please take this mother to the practice of Dr. Sri Mira."

"Yes, Doc."

"Thank you, doctor."

On the way to the obstetrician's practice room, my eyes quietly glanced to and fro to look for Brother. Who knows if we met here.

"Please, Madam."

"Yes. Thank you." Thank you."

"Please, Mother."

"Thank you, Doc."

"I've read the medical records of doctors before. To make sure we should check the urine is located first. There will be a nurse who will help. Please come through here to his little room."

A different nurse helped me and pointed me to the toilet. He told me a small container that I should fill with pee water.

It doesn't take long to know the results. The doctor seemed to smile broadly at the white flat object in his hand.

"Where's Mom's husband? You should've come together to pull this good news."

"He's at work, Doc. I didn't tell him about my condition. Afraid of disrupting his work."

"Congratulations, Ma. You are pregnant at this time. If you want to see more clearly, we'll just do a USG check."

"Pregnant? Am I really pregnant, Doc?"

"We better do the USG check just let you be satisfied with the results."

Believe it and not, but this is real. That in my womb there is a life growing. She is the seed of Juna. The fruit of our love. A bond that will make his parents closer and love each other more deeply.

With the results of the examination in my hands, I somehow wanted to meet Mom. My heart insisted that I should tell him. That's why I'm sitting in a taxi that's taking me there.

Like earlier. Mother was sitting on a bench facing the meadow which is now beginning to be seen in the dominance of brown color. The grass dries because of the heat.

I sat next to him. He looked at me and looked at me for a long time. There's nothing we're talking about. Just sit together with each other's thoughts.

"Mr ...." I put my head on his shoulder. "Although this is a mistake, but I'm happy. At least he was there because of the love between me and Juna. Look ...."

I sat up straight and showed the results of my pregnancy test. Mom is still quiet.

"Mom will soon have a grandchild. Is mom happy? Mama should be happy. Me and Juna are getting married and having a child. For that ... I had to recover to take care of my son. Doesn't this want to rock her later?"

"Mom's fine, Naya."

This time my breath stopped for a moment. Even I need a lot of power to draw oxygen.

"Be as usual, Naya. So that no one will be suspicious."

Hearing that made my consciousness fully recover. I put my head back on his shoulder.

"Thank you for bringing Juna along. I feel calm because he's got the right woman. Naya, don't ask me why you're like this. Whatever a mother does, they only think of the whole and happiness of her child."

I acted like I was talking to a madman once someone–no whoever it was–close. Even if he's a crazy person.

I'll talk back when I feel like everything's safe.

"Bag Juna. He endured the pain too long alone. Also take care of your condition so that your grandson is born safe and healthy."

"Mom, pray for us. Pray also for me to be able to accompany Juna."

"Go away. Don't tell Juna anything. That'll keep him safe."

"alright. I'm saying goodbye, Mom."

I stood up and bowed before him. Talking is like talking to those with mental disorders. Her eyes look teary. His hands moved to touch my stomach. A nurse came with another patient. They chase each other.

"I'm saying goodbye, Mom." I have a great woman who gave birth to the father of the child I am carrying right now.

As hard as I thought, it was just futility. There are no answers to the thousands of questions that dance in the head.

"Where are you?" Juna immediately asked a question with an annoyed look, as soon as I entered the apartment.

"Even you forgot to bring your phone. You know how anxious and scared I am?" He snapped for the first time.

I know, he's so worried. I vigorously stepped up and wanted to give you the results of the examination earlier. Until I realized, it wasn't in my hands. My brain was trying to think it remembered something.

'jeez, left in the taxi.'

"Silence? Where have you been since? You're really–"

Kneep his mouth with my lips. Although he was a little shocked, in the end the men would not be able to resist.

'Juno, enjoy what we are doing right now. At least, your mind should not find the fact that your mother is in a good state.'
