Episode 131: The Regrets of a Mother.
***
The beating heart is hunting, the hands are inexplicably cold, Love does not know what he is feeling, the feeling of fear, pleasure but also worry.
He finally ventured to ask the nurse who happened to pass from the hall, how the procedure to be examined by the obstetrician.
Incidentally, the obstetrician who is on guard does not have a busy schedule, so Cinta can immediately do an examination and for administrative costs can follow.
Nurses and doctors who immediately welcomed Cinta warmly immediately performed examination procedures that were in accordance with the protocol at the hospital.
After a few moments of examination, the doctor advised Cinta to sit back in a chair that is already available in the room.
Love could not stop clenching her hands, she was tense and her heart was beating so fast, she was waiting for what the doctor would tell her.
"How's doc? this month I did not have menstruation, whether my health was being disrupted or perhaps .." with hopeful eyes and a curious frowning forehead, Love hurriedly asked the doctor who had just sat before Love.
"Congratulations Mother Love, you are pregnant and your gestational age has entered the age of one month,"
"You are in good health and there are no problems, in the future it is recommended to do periodic checks,"
The doctor gave happy news but also surprising to Love, Love widened his eyes and he was speechless.
For a woman who is just the first to know she is pregnant it feels indescribable, it feels very happy but at the same time also scary and thrilling.
No matter how hard a mother's responsibilities are, Love doesn't want to be like her father and mother.
So Love calmed down and calmed herself first, she rubbed her wailing belly and smiled.
He involuntarily shed tears, "Why should I be afraid? I'll have your father," muttered Love rubbed his flat stomach.
She brushed aside all her fears and anxieties, believing Keenan could take care of her and her baby, unlike her father.
"Well doc, are there any restrictions I should avoid,"
"Like food, or maybe I should do what routine do you do in this young pregnancy?"
Love asks a lot of things, like a mother who is first pregnant, a lot of which she does not understand.
The doctor immediately explained well, if Love should not be too exhausted, he can eat the food he wants except the food is too spicy or acidic, nothing else was too heavy for him to do.
After hearing all the explanations and getting some answers with his questions, Love immediately happily and heart thumping excuse me from the room.
"All right doc, thank you, I'll excuse you first," Love went politely, then made payment at the cashier where the nurse who had accompanied the doctor immediately led Love.
But when he turned his back, it was like he was looking at someone he knew, looking so pale, thin and his eyes blank.
Love's heart was squeezed, her hands were shaking and she couldn't hide her aching heart from seeing that person.
"Mother ..." her voice was slow and slightly trembling, among the crowd, she saw the thin woman whose mother was stepping on a walker, it seemed like he was about to be moved to another room, seeing that there were several nurses around.
Love a little far from his mother immediately ran closer, maybe then Love was angry and disappointed, but he still could not hide his affection for his mother.
"Mother" Love called her mother again, the distance was near and Layla could hear her daughter's voice.
When he saw that Love was in front of him, Layla who was immediately nervous was about to run away, he felt inappropriate, all this time he blamed himself for everything that had happened.
Thought she was unworthy to be a mother until her ex-husband sold her own daughter for wealth, the daughter he considered a child had been sold out of selfishness and for her heartache had been betrayed.
"Mother, please don't go, I want to talk," Love grabbed her mother's trembling hand, she wanted to talk to her mother, she said, there are many things that Love wants to ask and also wants to know why his mother can be sick and whatever the circumstances are now.
After that, as Layla was already unable to leave, the two finally decided to be able to talk together in the park near the hospital.
"Why is Mom so skinny? why didn't you tell me that Mom was sick? What's sick mom?" Love speaks with great trembling, she tries to see her mother but Layla keeps her head down.
Hearing the trembling voice of Love, Layla, whose face was pale, looked at Love and cried.
"Mom doesn't deserve to be your Mother, I'm sorry Mom, Love, because of Mom's selfishness and heartache, I let you here alone, assuming that your father can take good care of you, but it is actually ...."
"You must have fought alone because of my selfishness and your father's, every thought that your heart felt torn and hurt, how could I possibly contact you again after what you did,"
"How could I want to be happy when you're suffering because of Mom,"
Layla was crying and her voice was shaking violently, she was looking at her daughter who must have felt more pain, but she felt unworthy to embrace her.
Layla will not defend herself, she is wrong, because of the pain of the affair of her husband first, she felt she will no longer be able to take good care of Love, every look at Love, every look at Love, he will remember Rehan.
Not because Layla hates Love, but Layla is afraid that if she is near Love then all her anger will be directed to Love who has nothing wrong.
That's why he left Cinta with his father, because Rehan had enough funds to finance Cinta.
While Layla chose to go to a remote village to serve and treat people in need for free, she wanted to spend her time without thinking about what would drive her crazy.
If he hadn't gone to the other side then he would have gone crazy, because of the infidelity of the man he trusted so much.
