DREAM OF THE SHADOW

CHAPTER 41

"Bik Sum, Yuna is there?" ask Joshua.

"Bu Yuna is still in Den's room, she said she doesn't work today. Not feeling well anymore." Bik Sum tilted his body letting the handsome man through the door.

Joshua went in slowly. He sees Yuna falling asleep wearing tulip-patterned maroon pajamas. Shua approached him and slowly touched his forehead.

"Fever just a little bit." Yuna said with her eyes still closed.

"What is your voice so raspy, dear?" Yuna opened her eyes quickly after hearing that familiar voice. He wanted to get up immediately but Shua kept him lying down.

"How come you can be here?" Yuna's eyes were very heavy to open.

"Would invite you to work, all breakfast together. The flu, baby? Have you taken medication?" Shua sat next to Yuna who was lying down.

"I took the flu medicine. You don't come near, you'll catch." Yuna pushed her body away 20 cm, but Shua pulled her back. Now their bodies are close to each other.

"here. Go sleep. Rest. I'll wait for you here." Shua stroked Yuna's hair without saying anything more.

Yuna felt a warmth radiating from the end of her hair. Shua's two-day longing caress felt very soothing. He was unable to argue over the reason for Shua's presence nearby. His eyes felt very heavy because of the effect of the medicine he had eaten earlier. Not to mention his body felt extremely limp. His stuffy nose and sore throat made him no appetite.

Shua looked at her lover who was lying sick next to her. Actually, there are many things he wants to tell, one of which is about Vanya who lives in his house now. Shua is very curious about Yuna's response when she finds out whether she will empathize or be jealous. Suddenly her phone rang, Shua quickly turned it off for fear that Yuna would wake up. He stood up from the bed slowly and walked out.

"Ma, why the phone?" Shua called her mother back.

"Vanya's missing Shua. Mama doesn't know where she's going. The phone's not picked up either." Nissa sounded panicked.

"Prophe Ma. Shua has a tracker on her phone. Shua will call mom again."

Yes, Shua did install a GPS tracker on Vanya's phone that was connected to her phone. He checked Vanya's whereabouts right now who seemed to be on his way. Fifteen minutes later Shua checked again. Vanya is in Graha Medika Clinic.

'What's he going there for?' ask in the heart. Shua peeked into the room and saw Yuna still asleep. He went down to the kitchen and approached Bik Sum.

"Bik, I'm going out for a minute. Yuna is sleeping now. I'll be back when my business is over. Please make porridge for Yuna ya Bik."

"Good Den."

"Thank you Bik."

Shua left the house in a hurry. The clinic visited by Vanya is quite far from its current position, approximately one and a half hours. He had to call Lian and tell her that he was not going to the office today and would handle the job using his cell phone.

Shua was standing in front of Graha Medika Clinic right now. He removed his black glasses. A clinic that looks old and poorly maintained. Shua was confused as to what Vanya had come all the way to a clinic like this. The man went inside and went to a woman in her 40s in the information and registration section.

"Can you help me, sir?" how polite. Rarely does a handsome man come to the clinic.

"Yes. Is there a patient named Vanya Aprilia today?"

"Oh, I'm so sorry sir, we're forbidden to give out patient information." He answered with a somewhat sorry face.

"She is pregnant Mba. And i.i.his husband." Shua was forced to answer that in order to be allowed to meet Vanya.

"Oh, Mba Vanya's husband?" Realizing that her voice was quite large, the woman immediately closed her mouth using her hands.

Shua who heard that immediately ran to the room that was directed earlier without saying thank you. He saw the door that read Doctor Raka's name, knocked on the door, and entered without waiting for approval. He saw Vanya sitting there crying.

"Sorry, who are you?" ask a nurse there. Vanya and the doctor turned to the door.

"Sister Shua?"

"Vanya, what are you doing here?"

"Vanya..Vanya..." The girl was crying.

"Who is Vanya?" ask the old doctor. Shua was silent for a while until finally the woman in the front came into the room.

"Sorry, Doc. This is her husband Mba Vanya, I told her whereabouts Mba Vanya is here. Maybe it will help Mba Vanya to change her mind. Excuse me Doc." He came out of the room again.

"Oh, Vanya's husband. Sorry I didn't know. Vanya didn't tell me anything. I am currently waiting for Vanya's decision. In my opinion, this abortion act we should talk about three. Look sir, judging from the reaction of the Father earlier, it seems that you do not know what Vanya will do. You two want to talk about?" The doctor asked and Vanya just shook her head while crying.

"Look, Vanya came to me for an abortion a month ago. He said he was not ready to have children. I think it's because...Sorry, because of the accident. I also don't follow the artist's news. But seeing you here as her husband, I'm quite relieved. Maybe you can talk to him. I have no right to say anything other than a child is a gift from God. I leave you ten minutes ya." Shua nodded politely as the doctor came out with his nurse.

"Why are you Vanya? An abortion? Oh my!" Shua hugged the fragile-looking Vanya.

"The water is not able, brother. Vanya wants an abortion, otherwise Vanya wants to die." she cried again.

"You still have a mom, you still have a sister here. What are you afraid of? Even if the man doesn't want to take responsibility, we can help you raise him."

"Vanya must have been booed by people. Vanya's career is ruined." That's one of Vanya's biggest fears.

"Don't think about that. Only a fool scoffs at a woman who defends her child. About career, you can even open your own production house from your mother's legacy, what else are you afraid of. Never mind. Get rid of your abortion plan. The great sin of Vanya. Killing alone is sinful, let alone killing one's own child."

Shua manages to quash Vanya's desire for an abortion. He thanked Doctor Raka who tried to persuade Vanya repeatedly. Shua embraces Vanya and breaks her into the car park.

"That's them!!" Shua and Vanya are surprised by the sudden presence of a group of reporters.

"Vanya, is this really your husband?"

"Aren't you Joshua who rumored to be Vanya's brother?"

"Is it true that the man rumored to be close to you initialed J is Joshua?"

"Is it true that Joshua was the father of the baby you were carrying?"

"Is Mba Vanya here for abortion?"

"When did you get married? Why get married secretly"

Joshua and Vanya were shocked, unprepared for the questions the reporters asked. He could only forcefully continue walking towards his car and pass from there. Vanya could only sit speechless with a trembling body. Shua no longer knows how to calm Vanya when she is also in a mess. How can a new problem arise when he has just solved a problem. Messed up. Within an hour, the news that she was Vanya Aprilia's husband spread like a virus in the country.
