Is It My fault to be thrown away?
THE ASSD? #1
One night in a small house came the sound of a woman pushing.
"Come on, a little bit more" said an old woman who helped with the labor process.
Once again the woman pushed and...
"Oek.. oek...oek..."
The sound of the baby sounding deafening.
"Finally," the woman muttered in relief.
The old woman who helped deliver the baby just cleaned up the baby who was born earlier. She wrapped the baby girl in a cloth.
Everything he should have done right away he did without stalling.
Then suddenly a man came into the delivery room. That man is the baby's son.
"What's the gender?" Ask the man directly without further ado.
"Female" answered the old woman, handing the baby over to her father.
"Female? Huh..useless," said the man with annoyance.
"Kelly, let's get out of here now. This kid is useless. He'd better be here. He should have been a man. It's even a woman" the man said with great annoyance.
"Sorry sir, but I can't take care of your children. I am an old woman and my age is not long anymore. Take care of your child. She is a gift from God" said the old woman giving advice.
"There was no need to lecture me" said the man, then took the baby violently.
The man took the boy and the woman named Melly out of the old house.
"May God give you enlightenment" said the old woman.
The old woman recalled a few days ago when she met the two people. They are not married but are pregnant. They also tell me everything that happens during pregnancy.
Melly who knows herself pregnant at the age of the womb has entered five months. He didn't have any symptoms. But when he felt his stomach grow bigger, that's where he began to suspect. Then she and Judah wanted to have an abortion. No doctor wants to. Because it is an illegal act and the age of the womb is also 5 months.
To hide her pregnancy. Melly and Yuda decide to leave the house. They give reasons for holidays with friends. They are just the two of them.
And after approaching the age of delivery. They came to the house of an old woman who was a former midwife. The place is secluded because that's why they want to come.

"Yuda, would you like this kid?" Ask Melly in the car.
He still felt sick and weak. Moreover, she had just given birth but still she forced herself.
"Just throw it away" the man replied casually.
"Are you serious?" Melly asked in surprise and then immediately looked at the baby in her cradle.
"Tell me you've talked about it. If the presence of this child is known it will only be a disgrace to us," Yuda said and stopped his car.
Yuda gets out of the car and switches to Melly's place. He opened the door to Melly's car.
"Yuda, can't we take care of our child?" Ask Melly.
"can't. Just stay in the car" Yuda said.
He looked around to make sure no one was there. Then he put the boy in the trash.
After doing what she wanted to do, Yuda got back in the car. The man left his son, who was less than an hour old, in the trash.
After Yuda's car is not seen. A woman came to the baby.
"Good God, why would anyone throw a baby this small in the trash" she said, taking the crying baby away.
The woman went to the hospital to check if the baby was healthy. He was afraid that the baby was why.
A few hours later, the woman arrived at her home from the hospital.
The woman's name is Ghea. He is still young, 24 years old. Ghea really likes babies. She is unmarried and has never given birth. She took care of her newborn sister a few years ago. Unfortunately, his brother died by drowning in a pond. His mother died giving birth to his sister. And his father blamed him for even expelling him because his sister died.
"Honey, you don't cry anymore, yes" said Ghea while carrying the baby girl.
Ghea gave her formula but she didn't want it. Ghea was confused by herself. When his sister was younger, he wanted to drink formula milk.
"You're sad because you're dumped with your papa. Don't be sad. From now on I'll be your mother. Don't cry, baby. Or do you want to give me a name?" Ghea asked as she gently patted the baby's stomach.
The baby girl eased her crying voice.
"Oh right yeah, you want a name. Alright... I thought it was a name for you" said Ghea.
Ghea was not troubled by the name of Mother. His sister used to call him Mom. So he's getting used to it.
"What about Dyla? Dyla stands for Dina Yuli Lia Andhika. With that name you can have your family surname with unknown to others" said Ghea.
Yes, Ghea knew Judah. He knows the man very well. The man who is his master. For 4 years Ghea worked as a servant in the Andhika family home. And he certainly knew the young master of the house, Yuda Andhika.
Slowly the little baby smiled with tears at the end of his eyes.
"You're happy. Alright from now on your name is Dina Yuli Lia Andhika. And you will be called Dyla. So dear Dyla, don't ever be sad about being dumped by your parents. Remember always that here there is a mother who will take care of you," said Ghea.
The cute baby slowly closed his eyes. It was enough today that he was tired.
Ghea saw happily that the baby was asleep. The baby who had been crying until it made his face red. Now the baby is fast asleep in his cradle.
"Sleep baby. Even though I am poor and will not be able to fulfill all your wishes. But still. I will support you. Fulfill all your needs. And even though I'm not your real mother. I will never throw you away. I will love you more than anything. So never worry. I love you" said Ghea sincerely.
Ghea placed Dyla's small body on the blanket she had already folded. Ghea did not dare to put Dyla on her uncomfortable bed.
From today Ghea is determined that she will take care of this baby until she grows up. He poured out his affection for the child who would now be his son.
