I Can Be Happy Without You, Mom

Chapter 76 Pregnant

A week later.

Today Alif plans to introduce Laila to his family. Although he had only known the woman for less than 2 weeks, but he had felt suitable. The nature of those who have a lot in common and still have not seen his ugliness makes Alif sure if Laila is a good woman.

"You are not officially divorced with Desi Lif, why is it in a hurry to introduce other women to us" said Ms. Nani.

Actually he was still heavy on Desi, even though he knew the woman had betrayed his son. Moreover, his relationship with the Desi family is quite good, so he regretted that Alif quickly decided to divorce.

"I know Mom, I'm also waiting for a verdict from the new court thinking about marriage. It's just that I want you to know her, she's a very kind and independent woman" Alif said.

"May it be true. People will usually look good at the beginning, but if it is already in possession it will be found out its true nature," said Bu Nani.

"Laila doesn't seem like it. So far he's always been nice," defended Alif.

"Haha... You're the one who's in love drunk. Do you know how long? Just know you so know," said Bu Nani.

"Already Ma'am, let Alif bring her here. Mother don't interfere too much with Alif's problems, let him choose his own life path. Just pray for the best for him" said Mr. Agus.

They don't talk anymore. Reluctant to argue again, Alif immediately left his house to go to work. He did not care about his mother's words, because his father defended him.

After the incident at the tailgate the other day, Rania always reminded the driver to go through a crowded road. Although it seems chatty, but it is for mutual safety. After delivering Alisa to the car, Rania returns to breakfast with her husband.

"Darling, why is your face so pale?" ask Rangga.

"It looks like I'm not feeling well, from last night the head feels dizzy. Last morning my stomach was so nauseous when I helped the mother cook in the kitchen," replied Rania.

"Then we better go to the doctor, I don't want to let you know why,"

"No need Mas, a short break must be better, too,"

Rangga looked very worried, but he could not force his wife to see a doctor.

"Yes, you rest today. Hand over all the business to your men, honey,"

Rangga kissed his wife.

"Yes, Mas. I'll obey you, huek, huek..."

Rania ran to the bathroom, she spewed out the breakfast she had just eaten. Sweat started pouring down his face, he didn't look all right. Rangga followed her to the toilet and gently massaged her back.

"Darling, it looks like you have to go to the doctor" said Rangga seriously.

"Yes, I'll go to the doctor later" said Rania.

"Nothing later, it has to be now. I can't bear to see you sick like this" replied Rangga.

"Let me sit for a while, my stomach hurts and my head gets dizzy, too,"

Rangga asked his wife to sit on the sofa. He gently rubbed his wife's back. Her husband's massage made her body feel more comfortable.

"I'm better, don't go to the doctor" said Rania.

"You should go to the doctor,"

Rangga carried Rania up to the car, the woman was embarrassed to be treated so. The ART, security even their personal driver until a smile saw it like that. But how else would her husband be strong enough to keep carrying her.

"What is my wife hurting, Doc?" ask Rangga.

Instead of answering his question, the doctor smiled and asked him something else that he thought was not important and had nothing to do with his wife's illness.

"How long have you been married?"

Rania and Rangga looked at each other.

"We've only been married for three weeks, Doc. Why is it?" ask Rania.

"Can't you guess?"

"Sorry Doc, please just go ahead. Do doctors have no pity to see the condition of the wife who is sick" said Rangga firmly.

Rania tried to get her husband.

"I'm sorry my husband, Doc," Rania pinta.

"It's okay, I understand. That's a sign her husband loves you so much,"

"Actually Ms. Rania is not sick sir, this is very natural for pregnancy at a young age. It could be that this will happen for 3 months at the beginning,"

"What's? Did you mean my wife's doctor is pregnant?"

Rangga asked as if he could not believe his hearing. The doctor nodded and smiled.

"Congratulations, the estimated age of the womb is 3 weeks from the last time the mother menstruates. His age will be more accurate if later the pregnancy is large enough so it can be seen through USG,"

Rangga cursed himself who did not understand the code from the doctor, he felt embarrassed because he had spoken a little loudly earlier.

He was so happy that he hugged and kissed his wife on the forehead in front of the doctor. His face that had been snuffling was now turning radiant.

"I'm sorry for my attitude, Doc. I was not sensitive to the direction of the doctor's conversation earlier," said Rangga.

"It's okay, I understand. Please take good care of Ms. Rania yes, pregnant women usually feel more sensitive. Although this is not her first pregnancy, it should be noted as well,"

After saying thank you they immediately went home. Today Rangga deliberately did not go to the office, he wanted to accompany his wife. People say, pregnant women sometimes like to crave strange things. Rangga could not wait for his wife to experience it. He would do anything to fulfill his wife's wishes.

In the afternoon.

After work, Alif accidentally went to Laila's house. He wanted to take her to his home to get to know his family.

"Mas, isn't this too soon? Are you still not officially divorced?" ask Laila.

"But I'm serious about you, I want you to get to know my family. God willing, if I am officially divorced, we will get married soon" replied Alif.

"All right, I'll change for a second, yeah,"

Laila who was still wearing her work uniform immediately changed into a more presentable and polite outfit. He cleaned his body first so Alif waited a while.

"Laila, you're beautiful" Alif said.

She looks beautiful despite her simple appearance. That is precisely what he likes from the figure of Laila, the woman who is what she is.

"Thank you, Mas,"

His cheeks were shamed with shame.

A little while later, they had reached Alif's house.

"Assalamualaikum," the two saluted.

"Waalaikum greetings" Nelly opened the door.

"Nelly, this is Laila, please,"

They shake. Nelly watched Laila closely, from her much more polite appearance than Desi.

"I'll call Mom and Dad first yeah,"

Alif left the two of them to call his parents.

"Oh, so this is what Laila's called,"

Bu Nani looked at Laila with a contemptuous look. Laila stood up and wanted to regret it, but she refused.

"I think he's more than Desi, didn't you choose Lif wrong?"

Laila was deeply insulted by Alif's mother's words.
