Look at Me, My Husband
S2 Mother of my son 62
“Congratulations Bu, Sir. Positive seven weeks pregnant.” Dennis's female obstetrician confirmed Naina's pregnancy after an ultrasound examination.
Naina ducked squeezing the end of her skirt. He was no longer surprised by the statement of the woman in a white suit in front of him. Different attitude was shown by Dennis. The man looked at Naina with a hard look to reveal.
“Ehem ...” Dennis cleared his throat to melt the atmosphere. She understood that at this time Naina would not ask SpOG doctors much and that meant she had to take over everything.
“Dok, how is it? Is it okay?” dennis asked, silently clasping Naina's hand under the table.
“The contact is fine. It's just that his mother's blood pressure is a little low. Increase rest, eat nutritious food. Later I will prescribe vitamins for Mom.” The doctor smiled.
Dennis nodded.
“This is the second child?” ask the doctor to see the data listed on the sheet of paper that had previously filled Naina when registering.
“Ya ..” Since then, Dennis has answered more. Naina looked down and did not want to talk at all.
“Oh yes, Doc ... em ...” Dennis looked towards Naina again.
“My previous wife had frequent miscarriages. During the pregnancy of our first child three years ago, Naina also had bleeding several times while pregnant. About how, Doc?” dennis asked, clenching his hand. He tried to strengthen Naina in these toughest moments. He knows, it's not easy for Naina. Pregnant without knowing who is impregnating her.
The doctor seemed to check again Naina's data, he nodded as if he understood. “Six miscarriages,” said the woman who is estimated to be in her 40s while smiling.
“Mothers have done TORCH checks?” ask the doctor again.
Dennis couldn't answer, Naina should have answered.
“It used to seem like it ever was. I don't understand either, Doc. When I miscarry is done any examination.” Naina opened her voice.
The obstetrician smiled. “Alright, you should do a TORCH check only to make sure. There could be infectious diseases such as Toxoplasmosis, Rubella, Cytomegalovirus, Herpes symplex virus. So if detected early, we can anticipate and prevent transmission and complications of infection in the fetus.” Doctor explained.
Dennis. It wasn't her first experience to accompany Naina to check the contents. During the pregnancy of Vienna, the man often did. He was not surprised and felt awkward with all the discussion about pregnancy. Even when Naina gave birth, she went into the delivery room with Mbok Sumi. He was also the one who signed the decision for Naina to do the Cesarean section during the process of the birth of Vienna. Naina was already unconscious at that time, after struggling to give birth with the normal process.

On the way home, Naina chose silence. Sitting next to Dennis who was holding the wheel, Naina stared at the package of vitamins on her lap.
“We go home, Nai. Consider stopping working.” Dennis makes a noise when his car stops at a red light intersection.
"Regarding your living expenses and Vienna .. If you mind receiving help from Wira, I can help you. Just focus on your pregnancy. I don't know who should be responsible for all this, the most important thing is to take care of your womb,” continued Dennis closed his eyes, driving away his headache. Thinking about Naina's condition, her head throbbed. He had to leave his daughter in America and fly to Indonesia.
“I'm sorry, Mas. I can't take good care of myself.” Naina said with teary eyes. I don't know how many tears have been shed since I learned of her pregnancy. It doesn't feel like living anymore, if you don't think that Vienna needs it right now.
“Don't be sad. Whatever it is, it shouldn't be skipped.” Dennis smiled wryly.
“I ... I .. feel guilty to Mas Wira. How he looks at me later. Wira is still waiting for my answer. I don't want to disappoint her anymore, Mom. I can't watch him get hurt anymore.”
“Already. No need to think that far. If he loves you, he will accept you and Vienna together. But if he can only accept Vienna only ..” Dennis paused his words, turning to look at Naina who was shedding tears and bowed.
“Do not cry. I don't blame you. If we can't find the culprit or you don't want to hold him accountable. I'll take care of you there. It is impossible here alone.” Dennis clasped Naina's hand, trying to strengthen.
“Thank you, Mas.”
Half an hour into the streets of the capital, Dennis's car breaks into the yard of the house Naina now lives in. In the courtyard of the house, Vienna was playing with Rima.
“Daddy ...” strangled the little girl as she watched Dennis get off his new car. Running and hugging Dennis's legs, Vienna's head looked up.
“Hai, little girl! How are you?” suhut Dennis, grabbed the little body of Vienna and carried it into the house.
“How are you doing, Rim?” dennis asked, looking at Rima and smiling.
“Good, Sir.” Rima answered while tailing Dennis and Vienna.

Once inside the house, Naina shut herself in the room. He let Dennis chat with Vienna accompanied by Rima.
“Dad, new .. da-dali Father.” Vienna shows a large teddy bear lying in one corner of the living room.
“Oh yes?” Dennis played his eyes, smiling at Vienna.
“Ya ..” Vienna nodded loudly.
“Ni dali Dad juja ..” Vienna showed me another doll. His face was so happy, hugging the beloved Barbie doll that Wira just bought last week.
“Bring here. Daddy saw it closer ...” Dennis waved his hand. However, not yet had time to hug Vienna, suddenly his mobile phone rang.
Hurriedly walk to the corner of the room when making sure that the man who contacted at this time. “Ya, how?” dennis asked shortly after his black device stuck to his ear.
“No bright spots yet, Boss. The one who took Naina's mother to the hotel was a couple. Jack and his wife. It's just that until now, they haven't heard of who they work for.”
“There is information moreover?”
“Cctv hotel was sabotaged. There were some parts missing that night. And the hotel employee who was on duty that night had also resigned at the end of last month. Means two weeks after the incident,” continued Dennis' man.
“Ya, already. Find out more. I'm waiting for the next news."
“Oh yes, almost forgot, Boss. All this time ... Naina's mother was only close to two people. Pieter and Wira. It's just, Mr. Wira who visits Mother more often. Sometimes I go home at midnight. That's the information I got from the security housing complex Ibu Naina.”
Dennis was stunned for a moment, his brain was piecing together all the stories. His view turned to Rima.
“Alright, try starting the investigation of these two people!” tell Dennis, disconnect the phone and then pocket his phone back.
As Dennis walked closer to Rima, he began to smell something that was not right at this moment. He is very sure that the man who impregnated Naina is a person known to Naina. It happened at the hotel and was very well planned. Must not be just anyone. It could be two men who are called his man or one of his business partners in the company. It could also be one of the employees in the RD Group where Naina works.
“Rim, come here!” Dennis called Rima. The nanny he brought in to help Naina and Mbok Sumi was no one else. She's one of Dewi's schoolmates, her daughter Mbok Sumi.
“Who has been close to Mom for the past few months? Is there a man who visited this house besides Mr Wira?” Dennis Todong.
