69. What's Wrong With Silvia

"Lucky…. He's busy!"

Hearing Silvia's reply, Tristan remained silent. He knew how busy his friend was. Among the three of them, Lucky who always had the most free time. She should have had plenty of time to take Silvia if she was just dropping off at the doctor.

"Lucky has a new business?" tristan asked after a moment of silence.

"Yes…. That's it." Silvia's hesitant reply again made Tristan speechless.

"I'm in first, yeah!" Silvia moved when she heard her name called.

Kirana and Tristan nodded.

The two look at each other as Silvia disappears behind the doctor's office door.

"Silvia is sad again, isn't she?" Kirana's question was answered with a swipe at her arm by Tristan.

Undisclosed, Tristan certainly understood the same thing. He knew Silvia better than Kirana. Silvia would easily express her mood. Silvia's face that looked more thin and a little pale. Eyelids that look sunken. Suffice to describe if Silvia is not in good condition.

"Mas, you don't think Silvia is happy with Lucky?" Kirana is not asking but she is guessing about the household life of Silvia and Lucky.

"Mas doesn't know. Ever since they got married, I've never seen Lucky."

Lucky was avoiding Tristan. At first he thought it was because of the condition of his body that it was not possible to hang out with his friends. But after Tristan recovered 2 weeks ago Lucky was never heard from. Daniel who often visited him never mentioned about Lucky.

He also took the phone in his pocket. Attempted to contact Lucky but several times his calls were ignored. Tristan got that thing back. Something wrong has happened. Lucky always responds quickly if Tristan contacts him.

"Mas, Kirana, I go first!"

Kirana and Tristan turned their heads towards Silvia who had just walked out of the examination room. The two nodded again then looked at Silvia who was walking further and further away.

The call from the nurse made them gasp. Kirana and Tristan moved out of the waiting chair.

Kirana settles down on the examination bed. After being smeared with the gel, Kirana felt an instrument twitch over her stomach skin. The sound of the baby's heartbeat in his stomach always makes him touched. Despite having done the examination for so many times, Kirana still glazed over to see the fetal recording on the screen.

"Dok, I want to see the gender," said Kirana who suddenly made Tristan surprised.

Kirana's heart rate seemed to race faster when the female doctor agreed to Kirana's request. Likewise with Tristan who looks so serious staring at the screen. Kirana felt her husband's hand grip tightening.

"Her gender."

"Yes!" Tristan's call made the doctor who was examining Kirana turn and chuckle.

"His father was very happy to have a friend" the doctor joked.

"Yes dong, Doc. The first one is already a girl" Tristan said in response to the doctor who examined her first wife's pregnancy.

Despite being sitting in the waiting room of the pharmacy and there were some people waiting for the medicine, Tristan did not awkwardly wipe and kiss Kirana's stomach. Unwittingly if some bar behind them there is Silvia observing all the treatment of Tristan on Kirana.

Until the name Silvia was called both only knew that Silvia was waiting for the drug. Tristan saw a lot of changes happening to Silvia, more reserved, as if shutting himself up. The woman even just nodded from a distance as her matters with the apothecary were done. And he left the drug room.

But when Tristan and Kirana were about to exit the building, they found Silvia sitting in the lobby. His face was pale and looked lethargic.

Kirana who suddenly felt sorry rushed over.

"Sil, are you ok?" tanyakanya.

Silvia nodded. "I'm okay."

"But your face is pale, you know."

"I'm fine" said Silvia accompanied by a bland smile.

"So what did your doctor say, Sil?" This time Tristan asked.

"It's okay, Mom. All good. I'm just a little tired."

Tristan was very sure, Silvia was hiding something to look fine.

"You're here to bring your own car?" ask Tristan again.

"Taxi's up."

"Then I call your husband."

"No, my mom!" answer Silvia instantly.

Tristan stared at Silvia, who lowered his head, preventing him from contacting Lucky. The woman looked so nervous and her face grew pale.

"Why?"

Silvia was silent and still lowered.

"Are you the same as Lucky?" tristan Cecar.

Silvia is now glassy. Then her crying broke. Kirana, who was sitting next to Silvia, grabbed onto the shoulder of the man she once hated so much for trying to ruin her relationship with Tristan several times.

Silvia could only sob in Kirana's arms. It was as if a burden was being shed.

That made Kirana confused. No matter what Silvia was feeling, she just wanted to give back to the woman who was looking very fragile.
