Love Does Not Come Too Late

You are not alone

Nina smiled faintly at Ghea's reaction. The stronger the guess is that there is something between Erik and Ghea.

After all the farewells, there was only Nina and Lea in the room. Erik has not returned from driving his co-workers to the hospital lobby.

"Haaiii, chayaankk again emiiik yaa ..." Nina Menoel-noel Maura's cheeks are fun to enjoy the source of her life.

"Want?, make yourself dong." Lea seduces Nina.

"If just make a small thing for me anyway, the problem is there is no candidate who deposited superior seeds."

"If superior seedlings certainly want to choose in planting and growing in fertile and cool land, if the barren land is located on the edge of the dam where it wants to grow as well even though the seeds are superior."

"Yeeiii my land is certainly fertile, once spray crooott .. so." Nina demonstrates shooting movements.

"Yaaaksss, what are we talking about?" Lea frowned in disdain.

"Entah ... What are we obrolin about?" The two chuckled together, laughing at each other's silliness.

"Where were you married to Brother Erik?" ask Nina carefully.

"Well .. uh, what does Nin mean?" lea asked slightly not understanding the direction Nina spoke.

"I mean, does Brother Erik treat you as well as you used to?..mm, he means that people can change that."

"Well the hell ...." Lea slightly hung up her sentence with a slight silent contemplation,

"Sister Erik was good .. very good," Lea continued.

Within seconds, Lea's face turned cheerful and smiled again.

Nina did not continue with her question about Erik, as it seemed that Lea was still unwilling to open up to him.

"Whose yesterday took you to the hospital?, who wears glasses is really a doctor?.. Doctor psychiatrist said the bewok friend was right?" Nina recalled the two men accompanying Lea.

"Oww .. mmmm yeah, that's a friend." Lea shies away from the pursuit of Nina's questions by pretending to be busy with Maura.

Nina feels there is something Lea has hidden from her, but Nina respects Lea's rights if her friend is not ready to share with her.

...🔹️...

One month later, Lea became a mother. With his young age, Lea found it difficult to regulate his emotions.

Caring for a newborn alone without experience, in a new area without close family who can provide support makes Lea experience baby blues syndrome.

His emotions were often uncontrollable, suddenly crying out for themselves, then angry for no apparent reason.

Especially if Maura fussy crying can not be stopped and it lasts almost every night.

Lea and Erik's relationship is getting less harmonious. Lea is depressed because she can't be a good mother, while Erik feels neglected since Maura's birth and he is also often the target of Lea's anger when his wife is frustrated.

Like this morning Lea who suddenly roared, because she felt tired of lack of sleep for the past few days.

Erik who was saturated with the emotional changes of Lea, back on the black heard the sound of Lea's cry that could only sob and scream without wanting to explain what happened.

"Why are you??!" Erik's voice broke the morning silence.

Lea was sitting in the kitchen hugging her legs and drowning her face between her knees, staying still and continuing to cry.

Erik began to get impatient, he approached Lea and pulled both Lea's shoulders to stand up.

"If there's a problem .. say!!, I can't understand the meaning of your screams!!" Erik said in a loud voice while gripping Lea's shoulders.

"Akhuu chapheeekkk brother .. huuhuhuaa ...."

"Khepalakuu shakiuitt ...."

"Ma .. mau .. ra nangiss continues hhhuu .. huuu .. ga wants to stopii, akhuu .. binguuungg .. hhuuuhhaaaa ...."

Lea continued to cry and continued squeezing her hair as well as pounding her chest repeatedly.

"Want I can whataa Leaaa?!"

"You're his mother!!, you should be able to calm your own child!! Not that I can just cry!!"

Erik's voice grew increasingly high and full of pressure.

"Khakak .. hhuuhuu .. shelaluuu only bhisaa maraaahh ga mau bhanntuu aa .. akhuu take care of khitaaa's son." Lea's voice grew more and more raucous and with a stinging breath.

Lea snapped at the sharp and loud voice from Erik. Instantly her cries stopped changing with Maura's screams from inside the room.

A few seconds they both look at each other with two different kinds of highlight.

Erik looked at Lea with emotion still high, Lea looked at Erik with a blank look.

Lea inched wordlessly into the room, as hearing the sound of Maura's cry grew louder leaving Erik still standing tall before her.

"Be*jerk!." Erik kicked the chair then rubbed his face violently.

He just passed from the kitchen to the front door, about to go to work immediately without the intention of saying goodbye to Lea.

Erik's steps came to a halt in the living room when he saw Nina standing looking at him sharply.

Erik continued to step out past Nina without saying anything.

Slowly Nina opened the room door, she saw Lea sitting facing the window against the room door.

Lea was breastfeeding Maura still with a cry and a stingy breath.

Miris Nina's heart saw her best friend in such a depressed state.

"Nova ...." Nina touched Lea's shoulder slowly, while giving a smile to strengthen.

Lea's cry broke out instantly seeing who was nearby now. Nina clasped Lea's shoulder tightly without saying anything.

The two of them dissolved in tears with Maura asleep in Lea's arms.

"There's still me Lea .. You forgot? I'm still your friend, I'm still here Lea." Nina hugged even tighter as Lea's body trembled withstanding the cries.

Nina took Maura from Lea's embrace and laid her on her bed.

"You want ... to contact Dr Lukman?" ask Nina slowly.

Lea raised her face looking at the same Nina with tears.

Lea nodded, "I .. want a story." Lea clasped Nina's hand tightly.

Nina leads Leah towards the kitchen, taking her to drink for Leah as well as for herself.

They sat quietly together trying to calm themselves. Nina tightened her hand on Lea.

"I'm ready to listen."

"Maura is not brother Erik's son .. Mr. Beni's son." Lea started crying again, but continued her story.

Nina tried to calm down not to interrupt Leah's every word, despite the many questions and anger in her heart.

"Sir Beni knows you're pregnant?" Lea shook her head.

"Then what's your problem with Brother Erik?, instead of him offering marriage?" Lea shook her head hard.

"Maybe Brother Erik is tired of hearing me always moaning?," or maybe ... Brother Erik .. regret it?" Nina looked at Lea sadly. He remembered the events that took place when Leah gave birth.

Nina arranges all the events she caught with Erik and Ghea in the office before Lea gave birth.

The two did look close, often eating together even though only in their office cafeteria.

At first Nina did not think too far, because the Erik she knew loved and adored Leah very much. Especially at that time they were waiting for the birth of the baby.

But Nina's suspicions grow stronger when she discovers the awkwardness of Ghea and Erik's attitude when Lea gives birth.

"You want me to call Dr Lukman now?"

Baby blues syndrome is a mood disorder experienced by mothers after giving birth. This condition causes the mother easily sad, tired, irritable, crying for no apparent reason, easily agitated, and difficult to concentrate.
