Me, You And Mother-in-Law

Fahri's Offer

Anton is on his way back home to his town, due to the news that Riri has fainted, and most shockingly that the one preaching him is his own mother.

Anton could feel a tremendous anger heard in Riyanti's voice while making the call earlier.

knowing the fact that there was another child who was the son of his son made Riyanti unable to think clearly, moreover, seeing how the woman he knew was named fitri told that he was the same person, who used to be between Riri and Anton.

The smell of drugs and coldness spread in Riri's body, the glare of light in this all-white room made Riri squint his eyes when he woke up from his stupor, the tiny hand he felt grasping the fingers of his right hand that had been attached to an infusion needle.

'i'm in the hospital, where's Mama??' Riri looked deeply when she did not see the figure of her mother-in-law there.

Reza woke up when she felt Riri's hand move slightly and could be seen in the corner of her eyes as tears dried up.

"mother..." Reza stood up from his seat while holding his mother's hand, the little boy could already feel pain when he saw the mother who was always there for him and never left him lying helplessly on the hospital bed.

Riri smiled at his son with a look of worry, really Riri really hope Reza does not follow in his father's footsteps and can appreciate and love the women who accompany him later.

"mother thirsty.can get a drink" Riri's voice felt so weak, whether it was time Riri had to agree to the doctor's advice for surgery, if it was time, indeed this is the best but Riri is afraid of the pain of chemotherapy that he must go through.

Reza immediately took a bottle of mineral water on a small table and helped give the drink to Riri.

"granny where?" asked Riri again after it felt enough he drank the mineral water earlier.

"so grandma and doctor bund, I was told to take care of the mother here" Reza wire explained where her mother-in-law went

"Reza bring your mother's phone?" riri asked his son, he wanted to contact Ms. Ratna, to inform him that she was here, because as he remembered earlier he had promised to meet with Ms. Ratna and also her son at the cafe.

"it was like she was taken with her grandmother" replied Reza

clack.....

"Sore Bu Riri.." said the doctor who did handle Riri and who explained that Riri had cancer, behind the doctor he saw his mother-in-law coming into the hospital room.

"dock afternoon" said Riri and tried to smile.

"i checked for a moment" explained the doctor to Riri and began to check on Riri's condition.

Riyanti embraces her grandson to provide calm, she has just learned the fact that her daughter-in-law is suffering from a non-playful illness, she regrets why Riyanti did not say anything about her pain to her.

"sorry Mom, sir.mba Riri it was not able to come, I just got word that Mba Riri entered the hospital, he had passed out" obviously a young girl named Sinta and is an employee of Riri at the cafe.

"well mba, it's okay, then we will visit Mba Riri in the hospital" said Ms Ratna softly.

yes, now that Ms. Ratna and Fahri are at the cafe Riri, at the request of Riri this morning, they finally say goodbye and plan to come to Riri at the hospital.

"mama went home first yes, it was not a chance to bring your change of clothes at all, he said you must immediately in surgery" Riyanti rubbed the arm of his daughter-in-law trying to give strength

"yes mah, I'm sorry mah so ngerepotin mama" said Riyanti, feeling bad because it makes her mother-in-law have to take care of it instead of Anton should take care of it.

speaking of Anton, he has been told by his mother the reason Riri was admitted to the hospital and that caused Riri to faint, he really does not understand with the fitri that can-can his come without telling first.

indeed, he will be responsible for the child who has been born, but Anton plans to talk about it first with Riri and hope Riri will understand that actually Anton does not want this to happen.

indeed, he was so eager for Fitri because of his meekness and always spoiled for Anton made Anton feel needed, and always wanted to please Fitri, Fitri, namu Anton is now made aware that Fitri is no better than his wife, although Riri looks indifferent and unattentive, but all this time Riri always relented and almost never demanded anything except the attention and affection of Anton.

tock...

the door of Riri's nursery which happened to be Riri getting his own nursing class quota since he felt financially better, Riri upgraded his health facility to get the best place.

reza who was playing with Riri's phone immediately stood up and opened the room.

"honey..may we come in" Ms. Ratna rubbed Reza's head gently.

Fahri who had been standing next to Ratna only smiled at the treatment of his mother Riri.

"ayo eyang" took Bu Ratna's hand into the room.

"mother.." Riri who saw who the guest who came was giving a smile

"boy..how are you doing" asked Ratna's mother while beside the hospital bed.

Fahri puts the fruit on the table and invites Reza to eat the fruit they brought, allowing the two women to talk.

it also did not escape Riri's observation, he was happy Reza and Fahri could interact quickly.

"what makes you faint again, not soon you will undergo surgery" asked Bu Ratna as she rubbed the head of Riri covered in maroon hijab.

Riri took a deep breath before explaining what was the cause of her return to be treated in this place.

"the woman came back, ma'am, and she took Anton's son". The clear, powerless circle escaped from the corner of Riri's eye, indeed she felt great pain knowing her husband had committed a great sin to have a daughter of a woman who was not lawful to her.

"astagfirullah" Ms Ratna was surprised by what she heard, it was really a tough test for Riri.

"it's okay, ma'am, God willing I'm sincere, I'll let go, can you help me?" asked Riri expectantly.

"god willing, I will help my son, what to do" asked Ms Ratna

"maybe in the next few days I'm going to have surgery ma'am, I want a notary to make this" Riri handed him a piece of paper in his hand, where it was too late to be written about inheritance rights in case something happened to him.

Ms. Ratna read the contents of the letter and was surprised to find her name and also Fahri's name in there.

"it's not right son, I'm nobody to you, how can you give this to me" Ms Ratna asked Riri.

"mother is no one to me Mom, but I depend on my son's future to mother, and I believe that mother is a person who is able to carry out trust" explained Riri full of confidence.

in the letter Riri explains that part of what Riri has will belong to Reza after Reza turns 23, a sufficient age after Reza completes his academic education.

and Riri also asked Fahri to help run his current business until it could be handed over to Reza.

Fahri who accidentally heard it also stood up after he felt Reza had started to cool with his game on the phone that he loaned to Reza to play.

"i'm willing to help you whatever it is, until you recover, never think this surgery will not work, many of my friends who have made it through a critical period and also have this surgery safely" fahri obviously to Riri.

"thank you" lirih Riri felt grateful there were still many people who gave support for her.

"but I have a request" Fahri bargained.

"Saturday..!!" Ms. Ratna put a little emphasis on her call to this child.

"a..what is it" asked Riri stammeringly.

Fahri also expressed what he wanted, and he felt this was the best for Riri as well, because after he learned of the disease suffered by Riri, Riri, Fahri who does have many connections outside and within this country, immediately find out about the handling and healing methods of the disease suffered by Riri.

luckily, Riri's cancer was detected early, with only one ovary involved, it was possible to retain the uterus and one of the unaffected ovaries.

However, treatment should be very careful, as chemotherapy can damage the remaining ovaries or increase the risk of early menopause. Therefore Riri had to do a more intensive examination.

finally Riri agreed to what was said by Fahri, and gave everything to Fahri, but previously Riri said that he had to finish his business with her husband, her husband, Riri wants to focus on his recovery and he does not want to have any other burden besides his recovery, this he did solely because there is still Reza who needs him at this time.
