Don't Take My Son

Abort !

The night is getting late, most of the earth's population may have fallen asleep in the dream realm, but not with Kharisa, the more his eyes dissolve even more difficult to be closed. By midnight, he was sitting on the bed with his knees bent, his eyes blank, no more tears streaming down his cheeks, it seems to have dried up in the source of the spring.

"El...where are you...why not yet Ngabarin?" muttered.

"I'm pregnant El.. You lied El, you said I wouldn't be pregnant, but I was pregnant." Seen remorse on Kharisa's face, he bowed his head above his knees.

"Why is this El, I need you El....Do you deliberately avoid me El? Did your parents tell you I was pregnant and you didn't want to take responsibility? Surely you have reached your destination, you said you will contact me directly, right, but why haven't you contacted me yet?"

In his heart he cursed his sad fate, why his fate became like this, had to bear the mistakes he did alone, somehow like what his fate would be, how his school would be, how his school would be, what about her friends if she knows she is pregnant, what about her pregnancy will continue until the baby is born or will be terminated in the near future as said by her father Rafael.

Yes, this afternoon, Kharisa and his mother came to Rafael's house to hold Rafael's family accountable. Still imagined in the memory of Kharisa when Kharisa with Mama Papanya was in the car that felt so gripping, everything was silent, there was no chatter especially joking as usual if they went together. Until they stopped in front of a large two-story whitewashed house surrounded by a white wall fence. His father asked the driver to go down and asked the post security who was near the gate to ask if the house in front of him was the house of doctor Birawan Hartadi. It turns out that this house is really the house to be aimed at.

Papa took his wife and Kharisa down, approached the security post to convey the intention of his arrival to meet with the owner of the house, he also said that he was the parents of friends Rafael. After informing his master, the security officer let them in.

So surprised by Rafael's parents when they heard Papa's explanation for what happened to the girl who was called Rafael's girlfriend, because Rafael never told me that he had a girlfriend, let alone introduce Kharisa as his girlfriend, Rafael said, but his father Rafael looked so calm when he saw the results of the USG Kharisa examination, he knew a doctor who listed his signature on the results of the examination, he said, even he memorized the logo of the clinic listed on the cover which is none other than his clinic. This means that the results of the USG cannot be a lie.

"If you do not believe please contact your son, we also want to hear his explanation." Papa Kharisa's voice sounded firm, he did not want the Rafael family to stand up let alone reject the fact that their son had impregnated Kharisa.

"Well, let's just say I believe that our son has impregnated your daughter, then what do you want? Our son just left yesterday to go to America to continue his studies there, maybe already nyampe, but we haven't been able to contact him." Rafael's father looked so calm, he didn't seem to think it was a big deal.

"Of course we hold your son accountable" Papa replied in a slightly high tone. If Rafael is in front of him, he wants to beat him up because he has dared to destroy the honor of his daughter and family.

"What kind of responsibility? Are you going to ask our son to marry your daughter? Have you thought about their future if they are married at a young age, even your daughter has not graduated high school? What about the school and their goals?" Said Rafael's father relaxed.

"Of course your child should be responsible for the fetus that our daughter is carrying, it is impossible to be born without a father." Papa Kharisa seems to dislike the words of Rafael's father.

"We will definitely take responsibility, but please think again if our children should get married whether it will not affect his future, Rafael will probably not matter, he said, after marriage he can resume his studies, but your daughter, if ready if you have to stop school, I think it is impossible for your daughter to go to school with an enlarged stomach, even if the school knows it will definitely take out the pregnant students out of wedlock. So please consider again."

"So what kind of responsibility do you mean?" asked Papa Kharisa astonished, Rafael's family will be responsible but asked to be considered again if their children should be married.

"I have a hospital with complete facilities and an experienced obstetrician, your daughter's gestational age is also only 7-8 weeks, he said, so it's still possible that if we do terminate the pregnancy or your daughter does not continue the pregnancy, my hospital can do it, of course with legal and safe actions for your daughter."

"Astaghfirullah.." Rafael's father's words surprised Mama Kharisa, he did not expect to hear a stupid and vile suggestion according to him.

"You mean abortion with a living fetus? Can it be said to be legal? I don't agree, it's tantamount to killing an innocent baby." Mama Kharisa added, he rounded his eyes. He did not expect his father Rafael who is a doctor whose job is to help people even save the lives of patients could kill his own future grandson, his own flesh and blood. Papa Kharisa was silent as if he was thinking about something.

Suddenly the door of Kharisa's room opened, breaking Kharisa's memory of the incident in Rafael's house yesterday afternoon. Kharisa turned his head to see who entered his room, it turned out his mother.

"You haven't slept, baby?" Mama approached Kharisa and sat down on the side of the bed. Kharisa shook his head.

"Can't sleep." Kharisa straightened his legs, his eyes looked swollen, his face looked pale.

"Mama herself why haven't you slept?"

"Mama has thought about the steps we will take. Mama will take you away from here, we will live a new life together." said mama slowly while rubbing the head of the princess alone.

"I mean mama?" Kharisa asked confused

"We leave this house, mama doesn't want you to abort your womb. Mama does not want you to take sin a second time, mama will also sin, we are not murderers, we still have fear of God's vengeance later in the afterlife, even though we are not good servants of God."

"We're going to leave Papa?" Kharisa still looks confused.

"Papa agreed with Rafael's father's proposal to abort your womb." Mama's eyes began to glaze over, she let out a long sigh, her heart ached, she still did not expect her husband who she considered as her family's protector to make the decision to abort his own offspring, she said, obviously, sin is the same as killing.

Before Papa Kharisa returned home to his first wife he had time to submit his decision to approve the proposal of Rafael's father to abort the pregnancy of his daughter with reasons for the future of his daughter and of course for the good name of his family. Want to be accompanied by her self-esteem if others know it turns out the daughter she is proud of is pregnant out of wedlock.

"Remove the fetus, we follow their proposal." Her husband's words certainly made Mama shocked.

"I don't agree, no matter how innocent the baby is, he has a right to live and I don't want my sins to continue to grow, realize we sin if we do."

"Evictim! You don't have to argue, my decision is made, throw the baby away. Kharisa my daughter is my responsibility. It's also because it's your fault that you can't keep an eye on your son."

"Astagfirullah al adzim.iya this is my fault, therefore I do not want us to make mistakes the second time. It's the same as being a killer."

"It's not time to argue anymore, I'm the leader here, you stay obedient to your husband, Monday you take Kharisa to the hospital."

"And I will not obey a husband who invites sin."
