The Part 76 S 2



I heard a voice coming from the device beside me. The sound of a heartbeat, I slowly opened my eyes. Seeing the white room. Obviously if I was in the hospital.


"You're all human?" ask a nurse with a friendly smile.


It was hard to move my right hand. I nodded slowly, wanting to ask but it was still difficult to speak.


"You must want to know what space this is in?” The nurse held my hand, "We're now in the USG room, look." The nurse pointed to my right.


I followed the direction where the hand was pointing. A large screen with black and white images.


"It's the mother's fetus" the nurse said again.


Mercifully. I was happy to hear that my son was still there. I didn't expect after what Aqil did, my son still survived.


After you finish checking the contents. I was put back in my ward. There was Zefan sitting there.


"Honey. Are you awake?" Zefan came straight for me. He held my hand tightly. His eyes look teary.


I smile.


"Sir. Your wife is fine, the fetus she contains is also good. For now, we'll just recover it." The nurse gave Zefan the ultrasound results.


Zefan stared at the black-and-white image, "However, Alisha is bleeding. Is there no other effect?"


"Until this moment. Still fine, for the continuation. The doctor will explain everything."


"Then. What about the stitches on his arm."


The nurse smiled again, "Nothing is dangerous. It's just, for a while don't get exposed to water."


Zefan nodded. Now the sister is out, just me and my husband. I want to hug her and tell her everything. However, it remains that this body has not been compromised.


"How are you feeling?" ask Zefan.


"When did you come home from out of town?” askaku. I don't want Zefan to worry too much about my situation.


"You're this. After I get your message. I'm going straight home."


My smile expands on my lips. I stared at Zefan's face. His worries have diminished.


"I want to rest for a little while. What can?"


Zefan's hand rubbed my head slowly, "Sure. Rest, I'll take care of you here."


I closed my eyes again. Maybe a short break will make me more energetic. I'm still tired.


💝💝💝


Zefan took me for a walk in a wheelchair. In the park many people are also accompanying patients in this hospital. Actually I don't want to go for a walk, it's just that I see Zefan daydreaming a lot when I wake up.


"Fa. I want to eat mango-flavored ice cream."


Zefan gave me a smile. Without saying he Zefan went towards the ice cream vendor.


"Is this all you're asking for?"


"Yes." Yeah."


I've seen Zefan daydream more. I don't know what's going on, but there's definitely not a good thing.


"Fa. What was? just tell me?"


Zefan held my hand slowly, "I feel bad. Like something's going to go wrong."


"What do you mean? can't we just calm down now."


I and Zefan should have calmed down. Aqil has been found guilty, he is finally in prison. Like a dream, I got the news straight from the court.


"Yes. We need to calm down." Zefan said with a face that still did not change.


I hugged Zefan's warm body. This might make some people look at us. But this is all I can do.


"I know you're still scared. We have to trust the court."


"Are you sure? it was impossible for Aqil to easily enter the prison. He is an important and respected man. He has power too."


Zefan took his opener off me, "I'm afraid it's just a trick. You're the first one he'll look for."


"There are you beside me. He wouldn't dare to come any closer."


"Yes. I have to tighten up the guard. I don't want to lose you and our future son."


I finally saw the spirit in Zefan's eyes. I would also be desperate if in his current position. Aqil was not an ordinary person and others would not believe what he had done all along.


💝💝💝


I felt a touch in my stomach. Slowly I opened my eyes.


"Zefan what are you doing?" I asked because I saw Zefan holding a knife in his hand.


I knew it was my knife. Maybe Zefan will peel the fruit for me this time.


"I want to eat oranges" I told him.


There's no answer. Only, he brought his face closer to me. Now everything seems clear. I pushed hard enough. Although my arm actually hurt.


"What are you doing here?"


Aqil only gave her demonic smile. He threw the knife at me. I feel so strange, why is Aqil here? isn't he in jail.


"Now I don't want to do anything to you. I just want to look at you longer." Aqil moved her legs closer to me.


"Ja..don't come near."


Aqil pulled my hand and directly kissed my lips forcefully. As hard as I can try to fight. Aqil still kissed me until one of his hands gave me an injection.


"Sorry, Al."


Slowly my eyes twitched. I just faintly stared at Aqil. He kissed me slowly.


"I'll take you."


Darkened.


💝💝💝


My body hurts all. I woke up with my body lying on the bed. My hands and feet are tied. I try to remember what happened to me.


"How are you doing?"


I looked towards the voice. Aqil, he's carrying a tray of food and drinks.


"You're pregnant, aren't you? this is food for you."


Aqil is crazy. In this condition how I can eat. No longer knowing why, however, Aqil kidnapped me.


"Why did you bring me here? aren't you in jail?"


Aqil does not answer. He took a spoon and was about to start bribing me. I keep closing my mouth. I will choose pain rather than be pitied by Aqil.


"Do you want to hurt your future son?" Aqil stared at my stomach covered in clothes and blankets.


I just remembered that I was pregnant. Maybe I can endure hunger and thirst, but can the child in my womb? we just went through a critical period together.


"Well if you don't want to. I'll bring him back." Aqil is ready to leave.


"wait. I'll eat it."


Aqil gave her smile to me, "It is good that you now obey."


"But I want to eat alone."


Aqil shook his head, "I'll bribe you. If you don't want to, I'd better see you starving and losing your fetus."


I just resigned. This time, I must not be selfish, I must be able to get out of this place safely. I'll think of a way later. For now, I will keep Aqil's feelings from hurting my baby.
