"Come, just push a little more" the doctor said.
A sweat washed over Fathia's body. The breath is drawn and then exhaled again according to the teachings of the sisters and accompanying doctors.
"Huuf, huuf, huuf, mm.... " Fathia again strained.
"A little more, do it!"
"Hmmmmmkkkk..... "
"Owek, owek, owek."
Akafha Bara Yudha, a male baby, was finally born to the world at eleven o'clock in the afternoon. The struggle was exhausting for Fathia and painful for Aka for receiving the scratches and bites from the wife while trying to get their child out.
The tears of joy and happiness of the two new parents as their baby's cries color the delivery room. Aka repeatedly expressed gratitude and deep gratitude to the wife. He landed a kiss on his wife's face, although her hair, hands and arms became an impingement by Fathia it was okay for him.All paid off already when he saw the son.
"Huh, huh, our son, Mas," said Fathia weakly.
"Yes, honey. You made you a great mother" praised Aka hugging his wife. " Thank you!"
The mother and child were moved to the ward. Aka had also accused the son of being asleep in the sling of the oma.
"Sus, can I sleep?" Fathia felt all her strength was difficult to run out, so opening her eyes was not able to feel.
"We tried to suck baby nyusu directly yes, Buk." The sisters take over baby Kafha from her grandmother and help Fathia to start breastfeeding her baby.
"His ASI hasn't come out yet, Sus," said Fathia.
"No pa-pa, Buk. Keep nursing the baby's grandpa, yes until his ASI comes out, all he practices sucking first," explained the nurse.
Only ten minutes baby Kafha was back to sleep soundly in the sling, Mama. The nurse placed it in a baby box next to Fathia's bed.
"His bus can rest," said the nurse.
"Thank you, Sus," said Aka.
The sisters who helped left Fathia's ward.
"I'm sleeping, yes Mas," said Fathia.
Aka nods to raise the blanket to the chest of the wife and then kissed long Fathia's forehead.
"Sleep, yes let our child sleep."
In just a moment Fathia had already entered the dream realm. Aka also headed to the sofa to rest for a while because she also felt a little tired.
"You ate it out and slept too, Ka. Let me, Mama keep this afternoon until afternoon. Later that night who knows you guys stay up late" said Alia the Mama.
"If you want to go home, no pa-pa. I am strong" replied Aka.
"Mom can rest at home later. Let's eat first, let's get some rest."
π¦π¦π¦π¦
One day in the hospital, Fathia and baby Kafha are allowed to go home. At home, the whole family welcomed their arrival. Happiness enveloped the hearts of those who were there.
They're on a fight over that handsome baby to carry. To the extent that the baby sleeps piqued and then cries loudly.
"Here I take his Kafha to the room, want to mimic the same, his Mama." Aka takes over the baby from Beno's hands.
"The handsome is very good, yes his son Aka," said Mama Beno.
"His father is handsome, yes his son must be handsome," exclaimed Beno.
"But it doesn't look like Aka loh, does it, Ma'am?" ask Risma to Alia.
Alia nodded. "Maybe similar, Mama."
"The nose is like me, the rest is like, the Mama," Aka's timpal who just returned.
"Have you ever seen her real face, Fathia?" ask Kila.
"Not yet, Ma'am. But if it doesn't look like me, who else would you try?!"
"Yes, too" replied Kila.
"The eyes are good, like Fathia's eyes," Biya added.
"That's what I agree with!" sahut Aka's.
"So I can't wait for my son to be born." Beno stroking his wife's stomach.
"What are you doing normally, Bi?" ask Killa.
"The smell is normal, Ma'am."
"That's good, let Beno come along as I hurt." Aka showed her hands and arms filled with the scars of the wife.
"People want to be normal!"
"But I'm not kayaking, Aka!"
"Don't want to be good," upset Aka threw his brother with a tissue box.
Beno is just a whiny.

"Mas, you sleep first! Let me take care of Kafha." Fathia was giving her baby sittin' on the headboard.
Aka is still faithful to accompany. "We slept together!"
"But you stayed up last night, Mom."
"No pa-pa! I'm really happy."
"Less rest later you're sick, Mom."
"Hheyehh yes, I rest first." I started to lie on the bed.
Fathia's palm on her baby's buttocks began to feel warm. "Son, Mama peed huh?! We'll change diapers first."
"Let me, you wait here." Aka got back up from bed.
"Well, isn't it going to be your sleep, Mom?"
"Kafha peed, you still haven't strong your way right?!"
Fathia seemed to be thinking, "He's still grieving!"
"Yes, let me get the equipment first."
Waiting for Aka to pick up their baby gear in the basket, Fathia placed her baby on the mattress and opened the baby bedong Kafha. "Mas, she's a pup, all of you take her clothes with you" Fathia cheered.
Aka came and took Kafha from his wife.
"Can you, Mum?"
"Can! I learned yesterday with the sisters" replied Aka.
"Hehehe was so embarrassed! I just don't think his mother can."
"Let's learn that you're healed, now let me work." Aka focus on cleaning the baby and changing clothes that are exposed to dirt.
"But it's my job, Mum!"
"The child's care is the duty of both parents. I don't want to burden you in taking care of the child. As a husband I am an example to you, so I should be able to set a good example for you. One of them takes care of our son."
"I'm lucky I have a husband like you." Fathia pinched her husband's cheek.
"I'm also lucky to have a wife like you" Aka smiled back.
Having replaced Kafha's popo and baby clothes, Aka held her child and swung for a while to fall asleep.
"Turn him, Mas?"
"Dad, I'm timang-timang bertar directly tepar," replied Aka put her son in the baby box.
"We sleep yuk" said Fathia.
They lie down and Aka pulls the blanket over her chest. He took his wife into his arms. Shed some kisses on the top of his wife's head. "Thank you, for your struggle to bear our child."
"Sama-sama, you have also welcomed me from the beginning until the birth process is complete. Sorry if I had claws and hands, because it hurts so much, Mas," said Fathia in Aka's chest.
"No pa-pa, the pain I feel is not worth the pain you bear. From morning until noon, I'm not necessarily capable of loh."
"Hhhmm I'm having plastic surgery again. All happiness will feel more complete later."
"Prophey! I know you must still feel heavy with your face right now. Don't stress, yes it will affect your ASI."
Fathia nodded at her husband's chest.
"Whatever your face looks like, you're still the wife I love and the Mama of my children!" Aka stroking the wife's black hair. "Don't be sad, three more months you can have surgery."
"I'm not sad, just afraid that our child will not know me!"
Aka lifted the wife's chin, "Hey, the baby hasn't seen anything. Now he feels us through the heartbeat. He'll know where mom and dad are through our heard heartbeat. So you will definitely know him because for nine months your heartbeat is what he always hears!"
Fathia smiled happily and nodded. The worry that he had been missing had been listening to the explanation from the husband.
"Now we sleep. Soon you will wake up because Kafha wants to mimic," asked Aka.
