I'm Not Your Choice
CHAPTER 57
The morning the sun rose as usual. Elsa got up and made her bed.
He sits on the edge of the bed. His gaze was blank and his gaze was directed towards the mirror.
He remembered his dream last night. Christian .... Yes Christian.
The man who pierced the deep wounds of Elsa's heart.
In the dream, Elsa walks down a vast field. He held the hand of a little boy. Such a healthy boy.
The boy took off Elsa's hand. He ran far ahead of Elsa.
"YESRIN......" The boy ran and hugged a man.
The man Elsa was convinced was Candra. But as his view became clearer. He was.. Christian..
Christian approaches Elsa with the child. He smiled lovingly at Elsa..
"Let's go home. Dio's hungry...."
"Alright, baby..."
Christian hugs Elsa's waist. They walked to the car and left.
"elsa...." Candra's voice breaks Elsa's daydream.
"Are you awake?" Candra asked back. Then Candra got up and sat down to approach Elsa.
"Good morning little whiz.. Are you thankful for God? Can we still wake up, open our eyes and enjoy the day? Papa can't wait to see you.. So strong hero, take care of your mama when papa is not on your side...Papa love you guys..." Candra said as she rubbed Elsa's belly which started to bulge.
"Why are you talking about that ?" Elsa glares. What does Candra mean talking like that.
"With papa Elsa.. You have always taught me to be grateful in everything.. So I invite the little one to be grateful.." Candra still caresses Elsa's stomach.
"Not that! Why do you say when you're not on our side. You are! Where are you going Candra..!" Elsa's eyes became puffy. Her tears slowly.
"Sst. elsa... Don't...." Candra wiped Elsa's tears.
"Do you know? I no longer have parents. Are you leaving me too?!" Elsa became upset.
"Sorry Elsa... Sorry I didn't have any meaning. It's just when our son was born.. He should be ready to be a strong man. Not like I'm Elsa...Sorry El...."
Elsa remained silent and shed tears. Elsa's hand wiped the tears that kept coming out.
"Elsa..please..forgive mee...im.i think..." Candra held back her words.
"Oct Candra. I have to be ready. I have to realize we're contracting." Elsa got up and walked to the door.
"I Love You."
Elsa stopped and turned her body.
"What?!" Elsa frowned looking at Candra.
"Yes, I love you..... I'm so sorry for talking....." Candra's voice went slow.
"Try reusing again??" Elsa still can't believe it.
"I'm ashamed!" Candra was upset and stood before Elsa.
Their faces met each other, their breaths and heartbeats were clearly heard.
Candra approaches Elsa's lips. He wanted to prove his love subtly. This morning was a loving morning for them.
Candra took a long time to say that. A subtle touch of Candra, it seems that their love will go smoothly..
*****
Elsa set the plate on the dining table. A pretty complete side dish. Fish, vegetables, chicken and warm tea with honey.
"You're looking to make an El gini..."
Elsa smiled and let her husband sit opposite her. Candra smiled, her face was happy that morning.
"Yes Cand, I hope you like it. Mbok Yem helped me out. And also I want to apologize for yesterday I left so long ago..."
"Can we eat El? My stomach is hungry." Candra starts her breakfast.
They ate together that morning. Candra's heart skipped a beat as she looked at the Smile on Elsa's face.
'Is God really love? Why does it feel like I'm stiff when I'm with her.' Candra's inner voice.
"Africa ... Where are you going today?" Elsa put the spoon and fork on both sides of the plate.
"I'm free Elsa, where are you going?" Candra was surprised by her own words.
"Not Els, I mean, where are you going? Want me to take you..? Uh no.."
Elsa smiled at her husband's behavior.
"Honey.... I just wanted to ask you to accompany me to the obstetrician. I haven't checked Candra's routine. Though my content has entered old age."
"Yes Elsa, it looks like in less than two months you will give birth. We also have to prepare the bag to go to RS."
All day they don't go anywhere. Elsa is busy in the garden and Candra with her laptop.
It seems that Candra is now trying her luck by playing stocks. It was clear that he lost one of his companies.
Like gambling for Candra in playing stocks. His price index hypnotized Candra. Especially about profit, for him he should be able to buy a new car for the birth of Elsa.
Moreover, the showroom business is not good this month. Yes coincides with the month of school children began to move.
*********
At 5pm...
Candra and Elsa dressed casually. Elsa with dress Pregnant mom and Candra with her polo t-shirt.
They walked towards RSIA in the eastern area of Semarang. The hospital is quite small when viewed from the outside.
Elsa got out of the car and silently looked at the Hospital. More like a regular house.
Candra invited him inside. They're heading to the reception section.
A young woman dressed in a light blue sister suit. The woman throws a friendly smile at Elsa and Candra.
"Sore nurse, I'm patient doctor Hadi. Has it started?"
"Good afternoon, my dear father, please forgive who?"
"I'm Candra Adiwinata."
Sister opened the system in her computer for a moment. Candra's looking for where Elsa is.
Elsa sat on the sofa looking around. It is comfortable and like home. Elsa Lang fell in love with the place.
"Mr..."
"Yes sus.sorry I daydream.." Answer Candra.
"It's started sir, just up to queue no 5. It was rather quick to come doctor Hadi. Please sir wait through the hallway behind me." Sister Vienna gave orders to Candra.
"Good sister.thank you sus..." Candra then approached Elsa.
"Eld.. Let's go there, practice has already begun.."
Candra helps Elsa stand up. They walked together towards the practice room. At the end of the hallway there is a bathroom and a crossroads.
They're heading to the left. Right there waiting for two couples and a woman.
"Goddess...." His voice is like Christian.
Elsa and Candra turned her back.
"Christian??" Elsa answered.
Candra's face was very unhappy with Christian's presence. Christin did not go with her.
"Christian.i'm a friend.."
"Elsa's friend, right? It's nice to meet you here. Is that right, baby?" Candra then looked at his wife.
It was like a dream for Elsa. Just last night he dreamed Christian was present. Now the man is in front of him.
"Darling??" Call Candra.
"Patient doctor Hadi. Candra - Elsa please come in." Call from the nurse in the room Doctor Hadi.
"Candra let's go in.." Elsa leaves Christian. It was quick - quickly go inside.
"I'll stay first.. See you soon." Goodbye Candra. He is not willing if his wife sees his ex-girlfriend for too long.
Doctor's Room.
there is a monitor near the doctor's desk and a larger monitor on the patient's mattress.
a senior doctor who has enough experience and age. actually the doctor is still a family of Benny's husband Martha. hence Elsa chose her as her obstetrician.
"doctor's Night.I'm Elsa, this is my pregnancy history book.."
the doctor opened the book that Elsa brought. she was rather surprised to find out that Elsa had experienced a miscarriage.
"sus. please tense him, I want to check his history first."
sister installs a tension device on Elsa's arm and she pumps it to work.
"100/90 doc." said the nurse in pink clothes.
the doctor recorded Elsa's blood pressure that night, the doctor's reference in analyzing Elsa's case.
"well, let's sleep USG first." the doctor walked toward the patient's bed.
candra came there to see and accompany Elsa, she clasped his wife's arm, as if to say that Elsa was grateful.
thank you for being willing to re-conceive Candra's happy and nervous child that's how Candra feels.
the doctor rubs Gel into a tool similar to a whisker shaving device. Then Elsa lies down, the nurse helps Elsa raise her skirt.
plastered Elsa's distended stomach with cellulite at some point. the doctor attached his tool and immediately looks the shape of a baby with a perfect head.
then the doctor pointed the device to the other side of the stomach elsa. cold it may be because the gel was. from the screen visible heartbeat, legs and sex of the baby.
"owh..male - yes ma'am." said Doctor Hadi.
Elsa just nodded.
*********
Elsa waits for Candra on the sofa in the main room of the Hospital, she sees her husband standing in line at the pharmacy. Elsa smiled as she stroked her stomach.
"elsa." Christian's voice.
Elsa keeps quiet against Christian, she does not believe the man is in front of her.
"Tians..... "
christian is quiet and sits next to Elsa, but she still doesn't blink.
"how's your fetus doing? progress well? have you prepared everything.? "
but Elsa soon realizes that Christian has other intentions.
"it's very healthy, the development is better than when I was still working. I enjoy my time off well. oh yes, what do you want here? checking your boyfriend?"
"no.. I was just visiting my friend. he was in the mayang room, but when I came. I saw you guys walking so yeah we met. "
Candra flips her body, her face looks unhappy with the presence of Christian. Candra's eyes become red and she leaned towards Elsa.
"sadly let's go home.. "
Elsa complies and he gets up from the couch, but his big belly is kind of blocking her.
Christian helps Elsa, she clasps Elsa's hand and helps her stand up. Warmly one-touch Christian.
Elsa fell silent and looked at Christian's hand.
Candra who had only seen them immediately went up the apoplexy.he hit their hands.after that Candra pulled Elsa's hand.
"excuse me!" candra said as she pulled her wife's hand.
******
"why do you feel at home and enjoy when he holds your hand?"
"yes because I'm hard to stand up. You think it's easy to stand on my stomach like this!"
"cih.. said you enjoyed your momentary reunion... "
elsa's eyes glared at Candra.
"what did you say?! reunion?!"
"yes ...what else.." replied Candra Ketus.
"reunion?! if I want a reunion with him! I wouldn't ask you to come here. I won't! I would probably stay in Jakarta, enjoy time with him instead of me coming here with you, leaving career, business just to be alone.. "
"it's you..... "
"dengan Candra!! don't be silly of you! I'm not as stupid as you are, a man who has no stand of his own! "
elsa ended their fight. Elsa chose to go into the front room of their house.
he locked the door and lay down his body. silly, yes that's Candra. for Elsa unlucky for her to have to live together with Candra.
*******
"happy to meet Elsa? it seems that he will fight this malem." said yeslin.
"servant, the important thing is to get Elsa back.. after that I can hold Rachel to the underwriting can even leave her. p.tak*n she wants to kill herself. it's no longer my business."
Yeslin put down his glass., "didn't you waste your time chasing Elsa again? let her be happy Chris. Candra loves Elsa too.. "
"i just want to make up for my mistakes first.You know for sure, how I used to be evil to Elsa. when it was against my heart, I love Elsa. but I'm too afraid my good name is ruined." Christian looked at the marble floor in Yeslin's house.
"it is precisely if you want to redeem, let him be happy with Candra. Your presence too, I think will not give any change to Elsa. Candra chose Elsa over her eternal lover."
"hello Crist!" nico came out from the inside, sitting beside Yeslin.
"hi Nic, sorry I bother you. " replied Christian.
"no... I'm glad someone came to our house. I heard you're getting married? are you ready right?"
"i don't love Rachel at all. want her to change like whatever she is Rachel.." Christian plays his teeth.
"Chris, gw temen lo. and I just want ngingetin. if you do not love him, better cancel all of them. Elsa is also happy, she wants to give birth to a child from their marriage.
if even Lo.. until now, someday dapet Elsa... are you ready to take care of her child?
and Elsa is no longer Elsa Nirmala you used to be. she's already a mother. ready you accept her with her current status?"
Christian looked at Nico sharply.
"yes I just want his son Elsa who must be a victim. let alone if you just want Elsa, they already set. I'm also sure 100% Candra will not release Elsa.. "
christian just silence, he bahkna not think about the child in the birth of Elsa. how he received the child, if only Elsa loved.

"stella... you know hgga, I'm again addict very same woman. she's an ordinary woman, not from among us, but she's special. you know too? she's Candra's wife.If I'd met Elsa first. maybe she's the same gw stell... "
