Day change day. The moon changed months. It was time for Kanaya to give birth to her first child with Andre.
They had come to the hospital from midnight because Kanaya had complained of pain in her stomach. This dawn was over but their baby had not yet shown any signs of being born.
"Sick, mas," cried spoiled Kanaya.
Andre tried to calm his wife by gently rubbing the tops of his head and also rubbed his wife's stomach accompanied by prayers.
Every now and then Andre scrunched his forehead withstanding the pain in his hand due to the grip of his wife's hand which could be somehow that strong. Kanaya continued to cry making her husband so could not bear to see her.
"Istigfar, dear," whispered Andre affectionately as he lightly tucked his wife's cheek.
Kanaya continued to cry and screamed occasionally.
At exactly seven in the morning, the obstetrician who used to check Kanaya's pregnancy again examined the young woman.
"It's opening ten. It's complete. Come on, Kanaya ma'am, start pushing!" doctor's decree.
Andre patiently awaited the birth of their first child. Although not heart but it is like the process of giving birth. After all Kanaya had followed pregnancy gymnastics along with Alya a few months before HPL. Both of them were planning to give birth normally.
"Ooweekk!" a cute little baby was born into the world.
Kanaya immediately lay weakly with a long sigh. Andre kissed his wife's forehead affectionately, "Thank you, baby," he whispered affectionately. Kanaya only smiled weakly with a still irregular breath.
"Alhamdulillah, the baby girl. Beautiful as her mother" said the doctor.
"Alhamdulillah" said Andre.
Kanaya then did the IMD process a few minutes after that the baby was brought by the nurse to be cleaned.
The doctor then performs the last action after giving birth. Andre was waiting outside. Every now and then a small shriek from Kanaya sounded. What a lot of stitches are old. Andre.
By noon, Kanaya and the baby can be moved to the room. One by one the family came to congratulate him.
***
A few days later the family still felt the joy of welcoming their new family member. Kanaya's parents had just returned home to visit their grandchildren by late afternoon. Papi Kanaya seems to have started accepting his daughter's marriage. He was just like his wife who felt the happiness of getting a beautiful granddaughter.
The baby girl named Adelia was just bathed by her oma, Santi. As Alya and Kanaya notice the way their mother is taking care of them, putting clothes on baby Adelia, Alya suddenly complains of pain in her stomach.
"Amhkk!" shouts wail.
"Darling, what's wrong with you?" ask Santi to worry.
"My stomach hurts, bun," said Alya Lirih while enduring the pain.
"Is it time for the little guy to be born, Al?" ask Kanaya.
"I-I don't know, ma'am. But it's still a few days away" Alya said in a trembling voice.
"Mother call your father first, yes," said Santi then rush out of Kanaya's room after finishing with baby Adelia.
Santi then looked for her husband who was sitting relaxed near the pool. I don't know what her husband was thinking. He seemed to be daydreaming.
"Mas, Alya complained of stomach pain. Maybe it's time for the baby to be born" Santi said.
"What's? Where's kevin?" ask Anto in shock.
"Kevin is out of town, ma'am," explained Santi.
Anto became tense. They rush to Kanaya's room. There, Alya still looked in pain. His face was sweaty even though Kanaya's room was already wearing AC.
"Al, we're going to the hospital, yes!" bring Anto.
Alya nodded her head, "Hhmm, well," she said softly.
"You've got baby clothes in your bag, son?" ask Anto.
"It's in the room, yeah," Alya replied.
Anto immediately went to Alya's room.
"Kanaya, mother and father take Alya to the hospital first, yes. Mother calls Annisa to Alina to take care of you," said Santi.
"Yes, bun. Its nothing. Poor Alya must be quickly brought to the Hospital," replied Kanaya.
Santi then called out to the twins in their room.
"Mr Alya wants to give birth, huh, bun?"
"Yes, mother," said the twins.
"Mas Andre is on his way home. So Kanaya and the baby don't stay, yeah!"
"Good, mother."
After Anto put all of Alya's belongings into the car, she carried her daughter who was still enduring the pain into the car in the back seat.
"Honey, you are here as mother, yes," said Anto. Santi sat in the back seat with Alya.
"Pull your breath slowly and exhale. Repeat, yes," said Santi who was given a nod by Alya.
Anto drove his car a little faster.
"Mother, try Alya's phone, Kevin's phone!" anto's word to his wife.
"Yes, mas" said Santi.
Santi took Alya's cell phone and called Kevin. Unfortunately, the number is not correct.
"Kevin's number is not valid, mas," said Santi.
Anto breathed heavily.
Arriving at the Hospital, Anto again carried Alya and took her to the IGD room.
"Suster, help my daughter!" shout Anto.
"Yes, sir. Let's lay it down here!" nun's decree.
Anto then laid his daughter on a cage. Santi came closer.
"Please wait outside, yes," the sister said.
"I can accompany my daughter right, sus?" ask Santi.
"Where is her husband?"
"His husband is out of town" replied Santi.
Alya was immediately transferred to the delivery room.
Anto continued to contact her daughter's husband. Kevin had told me to call him if the baby was going to be born. But a phone call from Anto remained unanswered.
"Sick, bun," Alya complained.
"Prophey, baby. Try your attention, yes," said Santi softly.
"Mas Kevin, bun."
"Yes, honey. Your father has contacted your husband."
"Excuse me, ma'am. We check first how many openings," said the obstetrician who also handles Kanaya.
"Ohhh!" alya shouted as the doctor examined her.
"Hhmm, I'm sorry Alya. Now it's still four openings, yeah. I'm just being patient. Breathe in slowly and then exhale slowly as well. Repeat often, yes," the doctor said.
Alya nodded, "Hhmm," then started to catch her breath.
Alya continued to moan in pain. An hour later the doctor went back to check, apparently still four openings.
"Mother, don't go," Alya asked in a soft voice.
"Mother will take care of you, son!" said Santi gently.
Without feeling like the day has changed the night. Kevin still can not be contacted while Alya has opened six. Alya continued to moan in pain.
Anto waited in front of the delivery room anxiously. By midnight Kevin can be called. He immediately called back after reading the message sent by Anto.
"Assalammu'alaikum,"
"Alya's still in the delivery room. He keeps asking you. It's been over five hours. Can you get home soon, Kev?"
"All right, I'm waiting."
Anto turned off his phone. While Alya still has no signs of giving birth.
