NO DIGAS ADIOS (Don't Say Goodbye)

NDA -126-S

"Bat! you why?! heh wake...!" Miss Lisa jumped in shock at the sound of Adam mentioning Selenia's name in her sleep.

Too tired to weep for his wife's fate, not realizing Adam had fallen asleep leaning on her shoulder. Miss Lisa patted Adam's cheek, whose eyes were still closed. Similarly, Mr. Fendi and Mr. Edwin who were not far from their position, also jumped in shock to hear Adam who was delirious.

Adam opened his eyes and straightened his body instantly. Breath hunting.

"Selenia.." sizzled Adam. He covered his face for a moment and sighed. Turns out he was just a dream.

"You why Dam? You're dreaming huh?" lirih Bu Lisa while stroking her son's back.

"I had a nightmare ma. I'm afraid something happened to Selenia... I takuuuut really ma..."

Miss Lisa pulled back Adam's body carrying into her arms.

"You are calm. Don't think weird. The doctor will definitely do his best for your wife" Ms. Lisa said calmly.

The time had already shown 2 o'clock in the morning, and everyone in the place was still awake. Only Adam could have fallen asleep for a few minutes. Hoping while asleep his anxiety can be a little reduced, but in fact the nightmare again adds to his worries.

"Ma, I went into Selenia's room first huh," Adam pulled out of Lisa's arms.

Lisa nodded slowly.

With heavy steps, Adam enters the ICU room. Her breathing was restrained while looking at the still unconscious Selenia. The bedside monitor continues to show active movement of Selenia's heart rate, pulse and blood pressure. Adam looked at his wife's calm face with those closed eyes deeply. His outstretched hand grabbed Selenia's limp-thumped hand with the infusion hose connected there.

"Darling, what happened to you?" whispered Adam lirih. "I'm sorry I can't take care of you, sorry I love you.." I don't know how many tears she's shed tonight. His heart ached at the sight of Selenia's condition.

...🌺🌺🌺...

The next day, Bi Iyah was cleaning up in Selenia's room, cleaning up the broken milk glass that she had not cleaned last night because she was already panicking, when she heard a loud ring coming from Selenia's phone.

Bi Iyah dyedukan find where the phone is located.

In the drawer, nothing. On the bed, nothing. At the study table, there is also nothing. Bi Iyah was getting confused. Where did Non Selenia put her phone?

After going down the place that he felt normal to put the phone, finally Bi Iyah actually found the phone under the bed.

"Why can it be here anyway?" Bi Iyah fell on her stomach and reached out to grab the phone that was still ringing.

Cia calling's....

The name was on the screen. Immediately Bi Iyah swiped the green button upwards.

"Hello Mbak Cia," said Bi Iyah.

"Well, how did Bi Iyah pick up? Where's the selenia Bi?" there was an astonished tone from Cia's voice across.

"E.. anu mbak.. in fact. e.. non Selenia... that's.." Bi Iyah was nervous.

"What the hell is a Bik? Aunt why are you so nervous? Selenia's still asleep? Forgive the child. Wake up, it's eight o'clock. We promised to get out..."

Bi Iyah let out a long breath. "Sir, but Non Selenia again. She's..."

"Huh??? Is he out? Is his phone still on? Dih...how the hell is this kid?!" sahut Cia hunted down before Bi Iyah finished talking.

"Not Mbak, non Selenia in the hospital. She fainted last night..."

"WHAT BIK???!!!" shouted Cia in shock.

The shout made Bi Iyah reflex to keep the phone away from her ears.

"Haloooo?? Which hospital is Bik??? A helloooo??!!" yelled Cia again because Bi Iyah did not respond.

Bi Iyah brought the phone back to her ear carefully. After she mentioned the name of her hospital, Cia immediately closed the chat.

Meanwhile, Bi Iyah returned to clean up Selenia's room with an erratic feeling. Actually he himself was also very anxious thinking about Selenia's state.

...🌺🌺🌺...

After getting information about the location of the ICU room from a guard nurse, Cia immediately ran down the hallway to the ICU room is located. So panicked after hearing news from Bi Iyah this morning, he immediately rushed off alone to the hospital without inviting Marvin. Though this morning the plan he and Selenia want to take a walk out-barung Marvin as well. Last night the two of them had already sent each other chatt to plan today. And when Selenia never returned the message, Cia never thought that something had happened to her best friend. She thought Selenia was busy with Adam, that's all.

Cia arrives in front of the ICU room and finds Adam and Selenia's parents sitting there in silence. The tired faces of the three of them. Must be because I didn't sleep from last night. But where is Adam?

Ms. Lisa welcomed Cia's arrival with a small smile. He stood up and waved at the boy to sit next to him. While passing Mr. Edwin and Mr. Fendi, Cia lowered his head politely.

"What happened aunt?" ask Cia lirih.

With a hoarse voice, Miss Lisa also told Cia what happened to Selenia and her current condition. Cia nodded weakly. His breath was stifled and he smothered his own mouth. Why would Selenia have to experience something like this?

Cia was afraid that something bad would happen to her best friend. About a year ago, her aunt, who lives in Bogor, also experienced the same thing as Selenia when she was pregnant and finally could not be saved.

"Oh Allah aunty...." Cia sobbing. "Why can this happen to Selenia???"

Seeing Cia cry, Lisa also cried. He turned his face up and wiped his tears.

"Doctors say, pregnancy at an early age is vulnerable to experiencing conditions like this. Auntie no longer knows what to do. All you can do is pray and pray."

"Indeed that's all we can do right now auntie," Cia squeezed Bu Lisa's arm gently.

The door to the ICU opens from the inside. Adam came out with an impatient face. He turned left and right. Shortly after, a doctor and two sisters came half-run from the end of the hallway to the ICU room. Lisa and Cia stood together. So did Mr. Fendi and Mr. Edwin.

"What's up, Dam? Why did you call the doctor?" ask Miss Lisa worried. "Selenia why else, son??"

"So I saw Selenia's hand moving, and her eyes opened slightly. That's why I called a doctor" Adam replied.

"really? Thank God then," Miss Lisa stroked her chest in relief.

Cia smiled in her stuffing. At least it is a positive response from people who were initially unconscious, right?

For nearly ten minutes Adam stood in front of the ICU room, impatiently waiting for the Doctor to come out. He was confident and firmly believed that Selenia would be fine.

"How's my wife doing Doc?" assault Adam as the new Doctor emerges from the ICU.

"Alhamdulillah sir, Ms. Selenia has made it through her critical period," said the Doctor as he threw a smile. "Then from that, we will arrange the delivery schedule immediately. We'll wait until it's completely stable, sir."

Reflexively, the news made Adam immediately prostrate to the floor. He felt very relieved, as if the burden of thousands of kilos that had been squeezing him since last night was lifted very lightly and simply disappeared.

"Alhamdulillah.." was heard from Ms. Lisa, Mr. Fendi, Mr. Edwin and Cia together.

As a doctor, delivering happy news to family members of patients is one thing that makes him personally happy too. The doctor then squatted down and stroked the back of Adam who was still prostrating.

"Selenia's mother kept calling her father's name, I beg you to go inside and see him" she whispered.

The words made Adam rise. After saying thank you, he immediately went back into the ICU room with a happy feeling. Others wanted to come in, but were not allowed. Because according to hospital procedures, patients in the ICU room should only be accompanied by one person.

"Darling, thank goodness you're sober, dear" Adam kissed Selenia's forehead and cheeks alternately. He also held his hand tightly.

"D-Dam... w-why am I.. w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-why here??" selenia asked softly and flattered.

"You passed out last night, baby. You are unconscious, so I brought you here." replied Adam with tears. "I'm not really happy, dear."

Selenia blinked her eyes slowly. Tears flowed down the side of his eyes looking at Adam who was so afraid of losing himself.

Selenia couldn't remember the whole thing that happened to her last night. All he remembered was that he wanted to go out of the room to see Adam but suddenly he felt his heart ache and his head spinning. After that, he doesn't remember anything.

"Continue.. a.. our son gi.... how?" Selenia felt her stomach slowly. There was a slight feeling of relief at the shape of his stomach that was still bulging.

Adam looked meu into Selenia's eyes. She was puzzled as to how to explain what the Doctor suggested - about labor that should be accelerated from a normal age.

"Darling...." Adam stroked Selenia's head gently. "The doctor said, baby should be expelled now because..."

Selenia shook her head quickly. "No Dam. a. I don't want to. a. I want to..."

"But baby..."

"I don't want Daaam... I want to give birth. sam.

Adam shakes. "That's impossible, baby. Your condition doesn't allow you to wait until that age."

Selenia. Adam could not bear to see that cry. He buried his face beside his wife's arm for a while then looked up again. While sighing deeply, he tried to compose a word to persuade Selenia so that she could better understand and not force herself.

"Please follow what the doctor suggested, baby. For all, for you and for our children. Yeah.." look at Adam begging.

Selenia is getting sobbing. "This is se.. all because of. a.. I. I can't take care of our son...."

"Ohhhhhhh...." Adam stroked Selenia's cheek using her thumb. "You can't talk like that. It's not your fault. It's already destiny. I would love to follow the advice of the doctor. I promise, I'll keep you in the operating room. We fought together" he said steadily.

Adam did not want his nightmare to come true. He wanted to be on Selenia's side when his wife was struggling to give birth to her child.

Selenia was weak. There was a speck of strength that brushed off his fear. Adam's attitude is so alert and calming.

...🌺🌺🌺...

Outside the ICU room, Cia walked away to the corner of the hallway as her phone kept ringing. It was a phone call from Marvin.

"Hello... Marvin I'm sorry I didn't know you first. I was in a hurry."

"You're in a hurry why the hell? Pantes I was looking at the house, Mama you said you were out, when I asked, mama you said he also did not know. I'm getting confused. I'm ready if I want to walk. Where the hell are you going?!" namel Marvin streak.

"That's a pardon. Maaaaaf. I rushed him to the hospital, you know..."

"Huh?? The infirmary? Why the? You sick?" cut Marvin. The tone of speech that had sounded nagging changed anxiously.

"Open. Not me, I'm fine. But I went to the hospital because I saw Selenia. Semalem said he passed out..."

"Huh??? So how is he doing now?"

Cia told Marvin everything he knew. Lucky the guy can understand and not fuss their travel plans that must be delayed.

"I'll tell you again when I'm home. You don't have to come here. Here were many people - the Selenia and Adam families," Cia stole a glance towards Bu Lisa and the others.

"Yes, that's it, okay. That's why I met no pa-pa ya."

"It's not pa-pa."

"Yes, bye baby. See you's. Mmuach..."

"Okay dear. kiss you too."
