Dear, My Baby [Congratulations]
45| Just Be Patient A Little More




 


Approximately ten minutes the middle-aged man spent just pacing around with a mixed expression. Anger, confusion and shock dominated his current feelings. Believe it and not in what is happening right now.


Halted step. Then flipping over his body, his gaze immediately fell upon a pair of grandchildren adam and Eve; sitting on a long sofa in the living room. And not far from him stood, the wife-Cathie-sitting on a single sofa with a puffy face and confusion - not much different from what she felt.


Andrew exhaled. Massaging his throbbing forehead. It looks like after this he will check his blood pressure because of this incident. Raka and Naura. The two held hands together, as if afraid of being separated. Even Andrew clearly saw the expression on the son's face so seriously. Radiated by his gray irises he found a belief so strong, it was not swayed by anything. It was as if an iron pillar that was so sturdy stood on the edge of the road. Stay upright even if there is a storm, rain and wind hitting it at all times.


Andrew's eagle eyes are now only on Naura - now fully the center of his attention. Not much different than Cathie's face. The sweet face of this young lady was so puffy. Both of her white cheeks were so red. As well as her clear brown iris exuded a feeling of anxiety.


Repeatedly Naura bit her plum lips, trying to suppress her fear. Hurriedly Naura lowered her head, staring at the tip of her hairy sandals while her eyes clashed with Andrew's cold eyes. No longer dare this young woman look up when Andrew noticed her so intently.


Samar took her belly. He knew both the middle-aged man's eyes were fixed on his stomach behind Raka's oversized sleeping robe. No longer could she replace her pregnant pajamas with a dress when she heard the noise on the first floor. Even his long almond hair was left unglued - he had no time to tidy it up.


“What's true Naura said, Raka. You're responsible for him?”


Finally Andrew opened the conversation after a long silence dominated the room that had been hot and gripping. Stared at him alternately Raka and Naura while side by side. Both of his eyebrows are intertwined when he looks at Naura's distended stomach while thinking. Some questions have been neatly arranged in his head. Ready to be presented to these two people of different sexes.


Andrew did not expect Naura to become pregnant. Didn't this young lady say she couldn't get pregnant? Then ... who is the father of the baby it contains? Was it really his son who impregnated him? Have they not been judged all this time? Is it possible that the two of them did a backsreet?


Holy hooch! Andrew took a deep breath. Massaging his numb nape - like his head was squeezed with tons of steel. He really needed answers to the questions in his mind.


Raka took a deep breath. His hand was clasping the hand of the lover. It looked so cold and trembling in his grasp. Through the movement of his hand, he tried to give a code that everything would be fine.


“So, the reason you broke off your engagement with Thesa was because you wanted to take responsibility with Naura?” asked Andrew a second time when Raka had not yet opened her mouth. As if to reassure his own ears over Naura's statement ten minutes ago.


“As Daddy saw,” replied Raka lightly while shrugging. His voice looks firm. In his hoarse tone no hesitation could be heard in Andrew's ears.


“Yes, Lord!” Andrew sighing. “So, the child that Naura conceived was your son, is that it?” for the umpteenth time Andrew convinced his own heart.


Raka nodded steadily and firmly replied, “ya, my son.”


Andrew's jaw hardened hearing that. He almost fainted if not the wife responsibly guided him. Sitting on the sofa stroking his arm. Tranquilize. This time Andrew seemed to be completely certain of what his ears were hearing straight away. Just like Andrew. Cathy looked surprised too. But ... Nobody noticed her face, the faint corner of her lips lifted up smiling faintly hearing Naura pregnant the child of her son.


“Don't you say you can't get pregnant, Naura? Then what is this?” Andrew asked Naura. His gaze was so fierce.


“Iya, Om. But, not one hundred percent I was declared unable to get pregnant by the doctor. If I get pregnant naturally, I can't. But the doctor said, because I have MRKH syndrome (Mayer-Rokitansky-Kuster-Hauser), then I can get pregnant through artificial insemination. By implanting ****** into my womb.”


Andrew was suddenly silent. His lips were tightly locked. Hearing Naura's explanation, it instantly made Andrew feel slapped invisible by a great superpower. It even made his ears ring strongly. He admitted that he had been misbehaving all along. He shouldn't have made the wrong decision. As if convicting Naura of not being able to give her son offspring, she deliberately had the son decide on this young woman.


“So you ask Raka to plant her seed on you, do you?” ask Andrew. As if dissatisfied with the reality, the middle-aged man tried to pry a description from Naura. Looking for faults of this young woman. He was sure, Naura must have been whining to ask for seeds from her son in order for them to return again.


“Daddy wrong.” Raka who takes over answers Andrew's question in place of her lover. He can't keep his girlfriend cornered by Andrew.


“Salah?” Andrew raised his eyebrows. Looking at Raka's disheveled face. He was sure that the son was going through a very difficult problem today, coupled with a few blows from him. Always this way, after committing violence to Raka, there will be regret in her heart. Especially when he saw the stamp of his hand on the cheek of this young man.


“Yes. Naura never asked me anything. On the contrary, it was I who agreed to plant my seed on him. Even when I found out that I planted the seeds, Naura balked. Even he tried to raise my future son alone without a share from me.”


“Oh, yes?” The corner of Andrew's lips lifted upwards, smiling sinisterly. He was not sure of the son's statement. It could be that what Raka said was just a camouflage to protect this sweet figure.


“Sure. If Daddy doesn't believe me, Daddy can call Neil. Neil was the doctor who had been handling the process of insemination Naura. Neil also asked me to donate my seeds to Naura.”


Andrew was silent again to Raka's explanation. This time there was no longer a cynical smile displayed on his old face. But he also did not show approval from Raka's statement. This middle-aged man took a deep breath and exhaled slowly, trying to calm the rumbling in his chest.


“Then, why did you agree to a proposal from Neil when you had a fiance?”


“Of course because Raka still loves Naura so much, Daddy. As long as Daddy knows, I'm engaged to Thes-I mean Theresia because Daddy forced me. Suppose Daddy doesn't force me, maybe Raka is married to Naura.”


“Daddy acknowledge that. But ... think about Daddy's position too, Raka. Daddy wants to have a descendant of you. While Naura could not fulfill it,” said Andrew after getting rid of the problem about the name Thesa. It is possible that Raka mispronounced the girl's name.


“That's because Daddy's impatient. There are still many out there that even married years have not been blessed with children. They're fine-fine only.”


Andrew just shrugged his shoulders not rejecting his son's words. “You're right. But Daddy can't wait too long, Raka. Maybe you can be patient for years. But Daddy couldn't. Imagine by you, Daddy's age is old. How much longer will Daddy wait for you to have kids?” Andrew didn't want to lose the debate.


“As Father and head of the family, Daddy just wants the best for you. Is it wrong for Daddy to act like that?” added Andrew.


This time it was Raka who was silent. Same with Naura. He can't blame anyone either. Andrew's words are right. Every parent wants the best for their children. Including in choosing a life partner and family successor.


Samar Naura stroked her distended stomach. Soon he will feel like a parent. And he thought he would act like that. He wants the best for his heart.


“We'd better connect tomorrow morning. I don't think it's gonna end tonight.” Cathie interrupted this serious conversation between father and son.


“We also need rest,” added this middle-aged woman.


Cathie wasn't lying. He was really tired. In addition to the mind, his energy was also drained out on the way from Indonesia to the island of Jeju. After getting word of his future iron - more precisely his former candidate for iron, Mr. Brownian. With such emotions mounting Andrew immediately invited him to fly to Jeju Island. To make sure the truth itself.


And it is quite unexpected, he will find Naura in this house in two bodies. All this time the son never told me about the pregnancy of this young woman. Raka just told me she was back in love with Naura. Then Cathie glanced at the electric clock stuck to the wall, indicating the day was getting late.


“That Mommy said was right, Daddy. It's been a very late day. You must be tired through long trips.” Raka added to her mother's words. Really, he was worried about the health of his parents. In addition, she also worried about the condition of her lover and her pregnancy.


Andrew took a deep breath. He looked at the faces of the three people in this room. Their expressions showed fatigue.


“Alright, Daddy agrees. We'll call in the morning. You owe Daddy a lot of explanation, Raka.” Andrew stood up from his seat. Before moving into the room, he glanced at this young lady. There was no expression on the face of this middle-aged man when his eyes met Naura's brown irises. Even she did not return Naura's thin smile to him.


Naura looked down again. His heart throbbed pain. Andrew's cold attitude again reminds him of the events of a few years ago, when he knew he could not get pregnant.


And this time will Andrew respect his relationship with Raka after knowing she can get pregnant?


“You okay, Naura?” ask Cathie when Andrew has left the room.


Naura could only nod awkwardly. Stare at the aging face of Cathie. Although she was no longer young, this middle-aged woman still looked so beautiful. Not even changed. It was the same when they last met.


“Gosh, really Mommy can't believe it. You guys back it up and give me a surprise like this. You can finally get pregnant with Naura,” exclaimed Cathie enthusiastically. Contrary to her husband's attitude. Cathie was so happy to know Naura was pregnant, let alone that her son Raka.


Both Raka and Naura smiled happily at Cathie's reaction. Both are so relieved. At least even though Andrew was cold, Cathie wasn't. As if they had supporters.


And with Cathie blessing their relationship, it might rub off on Andrew. Gradually the middle-aged man would also bless the two of them. They just need a little more patience, waiting for the right time.


Yep. The heart of who can guess. Maybe tonight Andrew's heart is as hard as steel. Who knows tomorrow morning as soft as a froth in the ocean.
