Suddenly my mother fell unconscious, I was very panicked to see my mother unconscious, and even with Zena and Om Aris, they were just as panicked as me.
Then Om Aris immediately brought the mother into his car, Zena and I walked escort in the back, we immediately rushed to the Clinic.
Arriving at the Clinic, the doctor immediately checked the condition of the mother.
After the examination, the doctor said that the mother has hypertension that can harm the fetus in the womb.
I was worried about the condition of my mother and my sister-to-be.
I could only cry, I did what I could to protect my mother, but it still turned out like this. In the end what I feared all along happened.
I did not expect, it turns out that the reason Aunt Isma wanted to harm the mother in such a way was because Aunt Isma was pregnant, which was likely the father's child.
It's really crazy, adult issues are really so complicated, I shouldn't interfere with daddy issues, but I can't possibly calm down to see your mother in pain let alone almost wretched a few times.
Actually I can't bear to see my father languishing in prison how disappointed and angry I am with my father, but I don't expect him to be behind bars in prison.
But I can't do anything, I can only pray for you from afar, I hope you're aware of what you've done, I hope you change yourself for the better, may you always be healthy there.
After getting a referral, before long the mother was aware of herself, then underwent treatment at the Hospital for several days.
So even after the Court of Law hearing was set, Aunt Isma was sentenced to 20 years in prison for some of her cases, and the father received a sentence of 1 year in prison.
After the mother was healthy, I secretly stole time to visit my father at the police station, I brought my father equipment for worship, prayer mats, sarongs, cocoa clothes and peci and some food portions.
"Dad, how's Dad, are you okay?" I asked about dad.
"Sherin thank you so much, son, you already care about Dad, I'm sorry that you can't be a good father for you, son! I'm really sorry, sorry Dad ... Son?" Say dad, then hug me.
I did not expect what he said, even dad to bend his knee to apologize to me, dad really regretted his attitude towards me all this time, dad promised to make amends for what he'd done to me all along.
I did not expect, it turns out that behind the bars is stored a lantern that can illuminate the dark heart and soul.
I am grateful that finally my father was able to accept my presence in his life, my father also hugged me for the first time in my life.
Finally I can feel what it is like to be in the arms of a father, the feeling of security and protection of a father, I can feel in his arms.
I could no longer hold back my tears and I finally vented everything that had been a burden on my heart all this time to my father.
"So this is how it feels in Dad's arms? All this time Dad never expected my presence" I said.
"I'm sorry, Son? I'm really sorry, once Dad's free, I promise, I'll make up for all the mistakes Dad made with you and your mom, I promise you, son!" Dad gave me a promise to make amends for all his mistakes.
"Thank you Dad .. I'm glad you finally got to accept me, sorry I did too, I've been acting so unkind to you?" I forgave all of my mistakes, because I finally accepted my presence in my life.
The visitation time was finally over, the father let go of his embrace and the father finally returned to the holding cell.
I feel very happy, if only time can be turned back, I hope in this moment I can feel the warmth in my family, he said, with the father who always protected you and also the mother who always loved me.
But reality says otherwise, maybe it's too late.

6 Months passed.
At 01:30 midnight.
Suddenly I heard the cry of my mother from the room next to mine.
"Ah... Sherin, Bi Isah, please .. My stomach hurts so much," cried the mother.
I also frantically approached the mother and I saw the mother grimacing while holding her large stomach.
"What's the Mother? Mother why?" Ask me with breath.
"Please son, Mother's stomach hurts so much, please call Bi Isah," said the mother.
"What a hell is this!" I panicked myself. "I'iya Mother, Mother wait a moment, Mother is patient huh?" In a hurry because of panic I immediately called Bi Isah.
Then Bi Isah immediately rushed to meet the mother in the room.
"Non Rahma why?" Ask Bi Isah.
"Bi my stomach hurts so much," said the mother.
"Maybe Non Rahma will give birth, then Auntie call Midwife?" Said Bi Isah.
"Yes Bi, hurry up. I'm not strong Bi!" Lirih.
Then Bi Isah immediately rushed to leave the mother.
I don't know what to do, just panic myself to see my mother moaning in pain. My feet kept moving couldn't stand still and didn't know what to do to help the mother who was about to give birth.
"Mother, strong Mother, Bun," I said. Can only encourage you.
"Yes dear Mother is strong," replied the mother while grimacing in pain.
Before long, the midwife came and immediately checked the condition of the mother.
I immediately rushed out of the room and waited outside with Bi Isah.
After a few hours, the Midwife went out to inform her of her condition, then asked me to immediately prepare some maternity supplies for her and also contacted the ambulance to take her to the Hospital.
Bi Isah deftly prepared all the needs of the mother and I immediately contacted the ambulance.
Bi Isah was with the Midwife and mother in the ambulance, while I drove my own car and escorted her from behind.
Arriving at the hospital, the mother was immediately taken to the IGD room first. I saw you screaming in pain, then the nurse moved you to a special birthing room.
I could not bear to see my mother screaming in pain like that, I saw there was already a lot of blood on my skirt.
After the doctor examined the condition of the mother, the Doctor said that the mother could not give birth normally, because of the condition of the fetus that does not allow to be born normally.
I did not understand what the Doctor meant and finally Bi Isah spoke to the Doctor.
Before long, Bi Isah told what was meant by the Doctor, it turned out that the mother had to give birth by Caesarean section and the action had to be approved by the family.
I do not want to make the wrong decision, after having an interview with Bi Isah who certainly understands more, I finally agreed that my mother immediately get the best treatment.

At 7:00 in the morning.
After everything was taken care of, the mother was taken to the surgical room. I just waited outside, hoping everything went well.
Bi Isah looked tired because he had not slept all night, as well as me. I told Bi Isah to sleep for a while while waiting, while I couldn't sleep at all because I was worried about my mother.
I kept praying that my mother and sister would be saved, so that the Fault Operation would run smoothly.
After a few hours the doctor finally came out, I immediately rushed to him and asked for news.
And thank God the operation went well. Now my little sister has been born into this world and it turns out that my sister is a baby boy.
I'm so happy, I can't wait to see my mother and little sister.
After moving in the room you are still unconscious, while I immediately saw my little sister, she was so tiny and red.
Unfortunately I could only see it behind the glass with a few hoses attached from my sister's mouth, as well as in some parts of her tiny body in an incubator, I really could not bear.
If you were here today, you would be happy to have a son. But unfortunately .. Yes already, one day surely my father will meet my sister.
After a few hours, I finally woke up. Mother immediately asked her baby, I also told mother her condition.
Mother must undergo a post-Surgical recovery period for several weeks in the Hospital, before finally being allowed to go home.
Afternoon.
Zena came to see my mother at the hospital. Then I asked Bi Isah to take care of my mother and sister because I was tired, now it was my turn to rest.
Zena took me to a quiet place not far from the Hospital.
I also asked permission for my mother to go for a while to rest.
Arriving at the location, because I couldn't stand the fatigue I didn't realize I just fell asleep on Zena's shoulder.
Somehow Zena moved my body until I finally slept on her lap. It was so comfortable, maybe because I was too tired.
At 17:30
After a few hours I woke up from my sleep, I saw Zena was asleep while leaning her head on the couch.
I moved slowly so as not to disturb Zena who was fast asleep, but it turned out that Zena was still awakened by my movements.
"Sherin, are you awake?" Zena smiled warmly.
I was a little embarrassed by Zena. "Yes Zen, I'm sorry I interrupted your sleep?" My toot.
"No Sher," said Zena, stretching out her hands.
"Sorry, I overslept Zen!" My speech.
The atmosphere became awkward.
"It's okay, you're tired, Sher, so good sleep?" Zena asked, with a sweet smile on her lips.
"Emc ... Yes Zen, I haven't slept since last night" I said.
"Geez, are you going to sleep again?"
"No ah, I want to go back to RS aja Zen, afraid mother waiting,"
I refused Zena's offer even though my eyes still wanted to shut until the next morning.
(Cruck crutches)
Suddenly I heard the sound of my stomach calling that was rumbling!
"Are you hungry, Sher?" Zena chuckles.
"Choi, emm ... Yes Zen," I said as I widened my smile at Zena.
'This stomach is embarrassing!' muttered.
I did not have time to eat from morning because of the panic and happiness over the birth of my sister, I forgot to eat and drink.
I also have not had time to shower, because I did not bring any supplies other than the needs of the mother.
"Have we eaten yet? I also haven't had time to eat!" Bring Zena to me.
"Emc ... Yes," I agreed to his invitation.
After dinner, Zena and I went back to the hospital to meet her and Bi Isah there.
