Hans did not stop praying so that the wife could give birth smoothly. As she grew weaker, the doctor acted quickly.
"Sorry, Sir. It seems like madam cannot be born in the normal way, we should immediately perform Cesar's surgery. We do not want to take the risk, if it is too late to do the operation" said the doctor while installing all the necessary medical equipment to Tia's body.
"Do whatever the doctor thinks is good for my wife and child, I support all the decisions of the doctor" Hans told the doctor.
"Good, Sir. We will do our best for the safety of your mistress and your baby" the doctor said.
The doctors and nurses rushed to prepare for the operation. Hans continued to encourage his wife until the wife was sound in anesthesia from the anesthesiologist.
The operation was carried out, Hans faithfully waited for his wife with a prayer that continued to say on Hans' lips. Only this first time Hans really felt very worried, all tired and tired he no longer ignored.
Hans remembered what he had promised his father-in-law to let him know if Tia was a lahiran. Hans took his cell phone to inform his father-in-law.
Pajo ....
Pajo ....
"Hallo, Assalamu 'alaikum, Hans. What's up?"
Hans's baritone voice was heard from the sebrang.
"Wa'alaikum greetings, Father. Tia is currently undergoing Cesar's surgery father, while checking the womb, suddenly he is in pain and his water ruptures. The doctor recommended immediate surgery. Can you come to the hospital right away?" ask Hans.
The man with the glasses minus looked worried, the operating lights had not gone out, a sign the operation had not been completed.
"Alright, Hans. I'll be at the hospital soon. Hopefully we still get a plane ticket" replied Gunawan who was also worried.
"Amijin ... May God conduct all our affairs" Hans said.
"Aamiinu. I'm ready, Hans. Don't worry, pray that Tia and your son are okay." Gunawan gave Hans support not to worry too much, surrender to God.
"God, Dad. Hans will be strong for Tia and Hans' son." Hans's voice weakened, he was unable to hold back the tears that were about to drip down his cheeks.
Hans hung up his phone call when the operating signal light went out. Hans was relieved, but his heart was not yet calm if he did not know the state of the wife.
"Sir Hans, please come in" called the nun to Hans.
"Yes, Sus." Hans fulfills the call of the nun. He walked towards the nurse into the operating room.
"Congratulations, Mr. Hans. Your son and daughter were born safe and sound" the doctor congratulated Hans.
Hans smiled in relief, he was so grateful that his son was born safely.
"Thank God, how's my wife doing, Doc?" Hans asks the doctor about Tia's condition.
The female doctor smiled and said, "Mrs Tia is still under the influence of drugs, will soon be aware. We'll continue to monitor the state of the madam, sir."
"I mean, Doctor?"
Hans was powerless, he understood the meaning of the doctor's smile. Hans took a step back, holding firmly on to the chair.
"Come, Sir. I'm going to the ICU. Madam's been moved there to get intensive care."
Hans could not hold back his tears, one side he felt happy for the birth of his son and daughter safely and healthily, the other he was sad to hear the condition of his wife.
With a shaky step, Hans walked towards the ICU room. After changing into sterile clothing, Hans entered the ICU room.
Hans heart felt pinched looking at the pale looking Tia, she was bleeding. Two bags of blood had already gone into Tia's body.
"Honey, hang on ... I am sure you are a strong woman. We are not ready if we have to take care of our own children. Tia, awake ... My mom and my son need you!" Hans clasped Tia's hand, staring expectantly for Tia's eyes to open and returning her gaze.
Hans' tears had already run down the river. A tough and great man who takes care of all his business looks fragile. Half of his life was fighting between life and death.
"Become ... Awake, Honey! Let's see together, our son is very handsome. He looks a lot like you, honey. Can't you see her growing up without a mother? Come on get up and fight all the pain. The three of us are waiting for you" Hans said near Tia's ear.
Two hours passed, Hans still faithfully sat next to the wife who was still closing her eyes. Hans continued to recite and pray that his wife would soon come to her senses.
"Hans, how's Tia, son?" asked Gunawan who had arrived at the hospital and immediately followed to the ICU room.
"Nrank ...."
Hans got up from his seat and immediately hugged his father-in-law. Gunawan returned the arms of the son-in-law, giving strength so that Hans could stay strong.
"Hans, don't cry. If you cry how Tia's gonna get excited about all the pain. You are Tia's encouragement, can't be weak like this!" gunawan said with a voice that shook because actually Gunawan himself also withstood the sadness.
Hans wiped away the tears and rubbed his face so as not to look wrinkled.
"No, Dad. Hans strong ... Hans is not a weak husband! Hans must be strong!" Hans continued to wipe away her tears that were still flowing without Hans consent.
"Yes, Hans. You are a strong husband and father. I'm sure Tia will come to her senses soon and say that her husband is a strong figure." Gunawan patted the son-in-law's shoulder.
The two men who were good at business were both looking chaotic, no one thought that they were actually weak figures.
Hans nodded, and soon he wiped all the tears and cleaned the snot coming out of his nose.
Hans smiled as if to say that he was a strong and strong husband. After Hans seemed to have mastered his emotions, a nurse came closer.
"Master, Hans. There's something we want to say. Your son continues to cry, maybe if carried by his father he will calm down" said the nurse.
"Good, Sister. I'll be there" said Hans to agree to the sister's request.
"Dad, Hans stayed a while. Please take care of Tia for Hans" Hans said farewell to Gunawan.
"Calm down, Hans. rest assured everything will be fine" said Gunawan with a firm smile.
Hans walked out of the ICU following the nurse. In Hans' heart there was no stopping to pray for the child to be okay. Hans stepped firmly, he wanted to show that he was a reliable father figure.
