At 3 am, Boby woke up from his sleep. Novia's sleeping position is still the same. His hands tightly hugged Boby's waist. Boby smiled back. He saw his watch. It's 3 o'clock more. He should get out of that room immediately. If he does not come out soon, then Novia will definitely be angry because she saw him.
Before getting out of his sleep, Boby observed every curve of his wife's face. Eyes full of longing. In his rabbi slowly Novia's face. Starting from the forehead, nose, cheeks, and lips. Boby lightly kissed Novia's forehead.
Then very slowly, he moved Novia's hand from her body. After Novia's hand came off, she replaced herself with a bolster. So Novia can still sleep comfortably.
Boby was still in bed. Before he actually got out of that bed, Novia's belly was taken.
" Well you're in there, son. I await your birth. Daddy loves you, son. Forgive me for abandoning you. Take good care of your mom, son, " said Boby in his heart.
Then Boby kissed slowly Novia's stomach. After that Boby came out of the room and returned to his room and prepared to return to Semarang before dawn.
••••
Two days have passed since Boby's arrival at the mansion.
" Hello, Boby....Find a flight to Jakarta right now. "
" Why ma? What was? "
" Your wife is giving birth. "
" Kok can ma. Isn't this not the time yet? Her gestational age has not even been nine months ma. "
" Mama doesn't know either. This morning he started to feel pain. She wants to go straight to the hospital, she doesn't want to. But finally my mother forced. Now we are in the hospital. Uda, you're here. "
Tut's...Tut ..Tut.. The call ended unilaterally from Bu Vera.
The flash back
The morning after Boby's departure, Novia awakens from her sleep in a daze. He had a good dream last night. He dreams of falling asleep in boby's arms. A dream that even feels like real.
A tear fell on Novia's cheek. He was sad because he was just dreaming. He felt it was very unlikely that Boby would ever meet him. Her husband must be busy with her boyfriend. He does not remember himself or the child he is born with.
Either because it is too drowning in sadness back or what, for sure, the condition is very affecting the content. His stomach often cramp. But he didn't tell anyone. He did not want to trouble the others. Especially her mother-in-law.
He just fell asleep while stroking his stomach if the pain attacked. Even when Candra called asking her how she was doing, she also lied that she was okay. He is always open to Candra.
But that morning, Novia was no longer able to cover it. The pain is more frequent and even more painful than before.
And coincidentally while she was in very sick wrecks, auntie walked into her room. Spontaneous aunt screaming calling her great mistress.
And with all the persuasion, Novia finally wants to be taken to the hospital. And after being examined by an obstetrician, it turns out that it has opened 5. Which means she's about to give birth.
Flash back off
Ms. Vera and aunt were very agitated and anxiously waiting in front of the delivery room. Because Bu Vera could not bear to see Novia who was in so much pain, he who initially accompanied Novia in the room, now he decided to go out.
" Mom, it looks like the patient is about to give birth. Do you want to accompany her? " ask the nurse to Miss Vera.
Vera looked at her aunt for advice. Aunt nodded.
" Yes, " replied Ms. Vera.
" But please Mom, when you get in the room, you don't panic. The patient has a lot of blood. But we try not to tell him. Because if the mother panics, it will complicate the birth process. You have to encourage the patient. "
" Yes sus. Bismilbornrahmanirrahim..." Ms. Vera walks after the nurse into the delivery room.
Bu Vera was increasingly worried when he saw the condition of Novia. His face looks pale and limp. But he still grimaces in pain. Miss Vera is approaching.
" You must be strong, dear. Your child will be born soon ", said Vera encouraging.
A quarter of an hour Bu Vera waited and increasingly did not bear the state of Novia.
" Sus, just surgery. I can't bear to see my son in pain like this."
Novia, who heard her mother-in-law's request, held her in-laws' hands and shook her head.
" Dear, you are in pain. Yes operation yes. Let's spit the baby out. "
" No..via.ma.sih.ku...at.." replied Novia shriek while holding her stomach as in crumbs.
" This opening is complete, ma'am" said the doctor there. " Mrs Novia, follow my guide yes. We're getting the baby's mother out. "
Novia nodded. The nurse helped him to fall back.
" Breathe deeply, ma'am." said the doctor. " Push the strong now Mom..."
Novia pushed the baby in her stomach with all her might. His hand gripped the bed sheet. There was no shriek of pain coming out of Novia's mouth. Only tears do not stop flowing.
Vera's mom couldn't bear to see it. It was as if Novia only wanted to feel her own pain. Without sharing with others.
" The strong, baby...You definitely can. Shout and hold your hand so that you can feel your pain, son." said Vera braced.
Twice the push, the baby still won't come out. Novia's energy is running out. His breath began to sting.
" Mom, you have to be strong. Come on one more time... Take a deep breath.... Push Mom...."
Novia pushed as much energy as she still had while closing her eyes.
" It's been seen the head, ma'am. Come on one more time... Push the strong, Mom... Take another breath... Push Mom...."
" Oek.oek...oek.." voice of baby Novia.
After the final push, finally baby Novia came out. Novia smiled at the cry of her baby. After that his body felt powerless, his eyes began to darken, and finally Novia closed her eyes unconscious.
Ms. Vera who saw her daughter-in-law did not move and her eyes closed, immediately panicked.
" Doctor... doctor..My child why is this doc? "
The doctor, who had just finished sewing the birth canal of Novia's baby, gasped in shock. He got closer to Novia. Examine his pulse and check Novia's consciousness. Then she beckoned to one of the sisters. The nurse understood the doctor's intentions.
" Mom, please come out first. Let the doctor handle the patient. The baby will soon be brought a special case. "
" What happened to my son? "
" We can't tell you yet. Later if we are sure of the condition, we will definitely give news to mother. "
" Alright sus. Doctor please save my son. "
The doctor answered with a nod. He's still busy checking Novia out.
Miss Vera came out of the delivery room.
" Mama...."
