Look at Me, My Husband
S2 Mother of my son 65
Wira and Dennis sat on a long bench right in front of the ICU room. The two did not speak, immersed in each other's thoughts. Dennis leaned back with his eyes closed. Instead, the Hero sits with the body leaning forward, both hands clasping each other on the lap. Her eyes looked distant.
Wounds on the face and all over the body seemed just a mere decoration, sister brother forget the pain when he heard the words of the doctor who handled their Mama.
Mrs Wirayudha suffered a heart attack and was declared in a coma. Medical teams are struggling to resuscitate a middle-aged woman who was taken to hospital unconscious.
"Maas ...." Naina has just returned from Guardian, a Southeast Asian beauty and health brand. The young pregnant woman was seen carrying a plastic package containing red medicine, alcohol, and cotton.
The hero turned his head, smiling faintly at Naina. "Where are you from?" ask the hero slowly.
"I bought medicine for you, Mommy." Naina showed me the package in her hand.
Without saying much, Naina had already positioned herself in front of the Hero. "Mas, lean. I'll treat your wound." Naina pushed the woman's body slowly to lean on the back of the chair.
Deftly rub the wound around the face of the Hero with alcohol. "A little pain, a pain."
"Yes ...." The hero answered slowly.
"Shhh ...." Not yet had time to finish his sentence, Wira sighed softly as the wet cotton hit her injured skin. "It hurts, Nai." Hero cringing.
"hold. If you know pain ... should not fight, Mas," Naina's scolding, frowned as if to feel pain.
Smiling hero. After a long time, he saw Naina's side earlier. Naina who often protests and nags him.
"Don't smile, Mom! Tomorrow ... I won't care anymore," Naina grumbled, rubbing the temples and corners of the Virus' lips with red medicine.
Wira chuckled as she stared fixedly at Naina's flat stomach area. "How many weeks are you pregnant?" ask the woman, as if forgetting how the pregnancy happened. In fact, the pain disappeared while remembering Naina's pregnancy.
"Seven weeks, Mum."
"Is our son cranky?" ask the hero again. Her happy feelings were already unstoppable. In the midst of the grief of her mother's news, Naina's pregnancy was able to divert the world of the Hero.
Naina shakes. There was a bit of sadness on Naina's face.
"I'm sorry, Nai" Wira whispered. With trembling hands, he dares to rub Naina's stomach. This isn't Naina's first pregnancy, and Naina's unborn baby isn't their first. However, everything feels new to the hero.
Naina was silent, not talking at all. He let the hand of the Hero touch the belly of his queen.
"Wait for Mama to be left, we go to the gynecologist." The hero said slowly. His head bowed, looking at Naina's stomach with a twinkle of happiness.
Have you done the check?" ask the hero again.
Naina shut up, her tail glancing at Dennis. The man was still leaning with his eyes closed. As if I didn't care about the two. Naina was so sure, Dennis heard everything. The distance between the two brothers was only one empty seat.
"Not yet, Mas." Naina is lying, not wanting Wira to be disappointed.
Smile etched on the lips of the Hero. He was happy, very happy. I wanted to scream, and share this good news with the world. However, when he remembered in his despicable way, he regretted. The face dimmed, the happy was stifled. The hero clasped Naina's slender waist, then hugged the woman tightly.
"I'm sorry, Nai." He was hit by the guilt he had been trying to hide all along.
"Stop working and focus on your pregnancy" Pinta Wira.
"Yes, I'll see how it goes, Mas. I haven't thought that far."
There was a heavy sigh, the next sentence that came out of the lips of the Hero was often spoken by the man.
"Go back with me, Nai. I promise to make you happy" whispered Wira, holding Naina's hands. Wira hopes this pregnancy makes Naina melt a little.
Naina did not reply, but there was no rejection as usual. And Wira knew, one more step Naina would go back into her arms.

Netra Dennis opened, staring at the face of the woman sitting next to him with her fingertips clamping down on a cotton swab soaked in alcohol.
"Go home, Nai. It's already night. Take care of your womb, you also need rest." Dennis takes the cotton out of Naina's hands.
"Let me alone." Dennis put a smile on his swollen lips.
"Mas sure?"
Dennis nodded.
"It's night, pity Vienna. After all, here also could not do much. Just waiting for word from the doctor." Dennis explains.
"Nai, go home with William. He's on his way." The hero interrupted the conversation.
"Yes, Mum." Naina turned to look at Wira, who was sitting on her left.
"Go home and rest." Smiling hero.

The night grew late as the two sisters sat side by side without speaking. Since Naina said goodbye, only silence was created between the sister who had a restless adornment on the face.
"I'm sorry ...." Suddenly Dennis made a sound as he rubbed his swollen forehead and began to throb.
"I couldn't control my emotions when I saw Naina crying" Dennis continued. His eyes glanced ahead.
Wira turned his head, since he had chosen to give distance, he tried to reconcile after Dennis did the same.
"For the past, I admit it was my fault. But today ... I didn't expect a nice guy like you could use such a cruel way to get him back." Dennis said slowly.
The hero is bowed when reminded of his mistake.
"Divorce from you .. is not easy for him. Whatever the reason for the divorce, I know .. I'm to blame. Although actually ... you're not entirely right either" Dennis bit his lip.
"I used Stevi's love for you. And Stevi really made it all right. I just need a little work and end up watching on the sidelines. Mom and you work together on this. Mama is urging you along and you are deciding your path by agreeing to follow this game. Without good cooperation between the four of us, none of this would have happened" Dennis continued.
The hero again just listened, digesting the strands of sentences that came out of the lips of the brother.
"The only victim was Naina, as she stood outside and was hit by the most incredible impact. Until the divorce, he still has to ...." Dennis did not continue his sentence, turning to look pushyly at Wira.
"Being the widow of Pratama Wirayudha, Naina's life is inversely related to yours. When you are a widower, maybe you do not feel that the divorce is so heavy. Your life is full of treasure, supported by those who love you. And you're being chased by a lot of women. How many women want you to be their husband. And Naina is the opposite ...."
"He was pregnant in a state of worry. The weak content often bleeding. He fought hard to get Vienna. Her life is miserable, a widow is pregnant without a husband. You can imagine how people around you look at it. Being a widower, you are hailed by everyone, widowed, pregnant without a husband ... Naina must be willing to be humiliated. It's even the stuff of people's chirping."
"Why hide it from me?" The hero asked slowly. This time there was no anger in his tone.
"I never hid it. Over and over again, I offered him to come back to you. I saw for myself how hard she was pregnant alone. Of course you know what Naina's answer was at that moment ... He refused."
"He doesn't know the truth yet." The hero stared intently at Dennis.
"If he knows, are you sure ... Naina still wants to come back to you. Wouldn't it make things worse, Naina could have been hiding from me. And we're gonna lose him. I hurt you, but you hurt him. Be pretend or be real, no one wants to be cheated on."
"But, Naina forgives you. It's been a long time.he forgave you. Maybe this mistake started with me, but you took the most important role. You directly hurt him. You made it all come into existence. You decided to sue him by marrying Stevi. No one can force you if you don't want that marriage, right?" Dennis Todong.
"All my grudges, Stevi's foul intentions wouldn't have gone smoothly without you, Wir. Learn to understand Naina. He's changed a lot now. These three years made him look at life from different glasses."
