If anyone says love can bring strength and courage. A line of words Darren blurted out like finding an oasis in the desert, restoring his faded spirit. The man's hand was able to pull himself who had drowned so far in the valley of slump. And a sincere smile curled from the corner of the man's lips, as if seeing the sunrise in winter. Making his eyes dim, shining brightly again.
"Can you keep going like this? I want to learn to be tough so that our story can be intact. I want to recover quickly as before so I can be with you to old." Karen still sobbed in her husband's arms.
"certain. Thank you for the effort you put in to stay by my side. In the future, I won't let you suffer on your own. So give me time to learn to understand you!" darren said after realizing that he was not sensitive enough all this time.
Darren rubbed the tears that were imprinted on Karen's smooth cheeks, then kissed her forehead gently. Pretty long. So deep and full of feeling.
For a near-perfect guy like Darren, Karen realizes there will be hundreds of women out there ready to snatch. Therefore, it was natural that he had time to have excessive fear and worry. Instead, the busyness of his work makes Darren underestimate the changes that have been seen in Karen. The man was too logical to be able to interpret it all.
To be sure, this moment made them realize that getting married does require a lot of preparation. Not just mental and financial preparation. Marriage must be ready to accept all conditions, ready to support each other, understand and evaluate themselves. Moreover, they are two people who are united with many differences. Starting from the difference in age, mindset, and of course born and raised with different upbringing and habits.
Darren walked out of the room, letting Karen rest her body and mind. She then met Valen's mother who sat down and called her husband. The woman who always appeared fashionable in all those situations also hurriedly stood up as soon as she saw her daughter-in-law.
"Where, Darren?"
"Karen wants to do a biopsy to check the type of tumor. We'll also seek second opinions from other doctors."
"Mami and papi can information if at one of the Malaysian Hospitals there is a non-surgical tumor treatment procedure by relying on the HIFU¹ method. How about we try this procedure?" Mami Valen showed me the information in her dress. "So little Karen was so scared of the doctor. He was also very afraid to see the syringe. Mami could not imagine she had to go through a scary surgical procedure," he continued with a sad face.
Darren skimmed through the procedure. "It is suitable for benign types of tumors. We pray that the biopsy results will only be benign tumors that can still be saved without having to take hysterectomy steps. I'm sure Karen is strong and able to get through all this."
"Mami trust Karen with you."
Karen's phone that was still in Darren's hands suddenly shook without a sound. On the screen of the phone, the name Oma Belle is seen. Instead of immediately answering, Darren chose to ignore him. A few moments later, now replace the phone that rings. The call came from Chalvin.
"Ren, you're with Karen again, aren't you? Oma told me to call you, because from earlier she called Karen not answered." Chalvin's voice was heard over the phone.
Daren stared at Karen's nursery for a moment. "Karen ... Just entered the hospital."
"What?" Chalvin was aghast for a moment, "why is he?"
Darren's breath was blowing heavily. "I ... can't explain to you now. To be sure, the situation is not possible to move for the next few days. But please don't tell Oma she's in the hospital again, okay? Tell him he's busy or something. Right now I just want to focus on Karen's recovery." Darren certainly understands Oma Belle's excessive response if you know Karen's condition so far. For that, he must make his wife avoid things that trigger stress.
"OKAY. I'm not gonna tell Oma."
Darren's words just made Chalvin instantly remember his conversation with Karen the other day. Moreover, Darren's voice sounded weak and uninspired. In his heart tucked in question, could it be that the illness suffered by Karen has been seriously devoured?
Chalvin's daydreams were spoiled when Oma Belle came into his room.
"Where? Did you call Darren Belom? Nih, from earlier Oma called Karen not raised. Though his promise to come here this afternoon," said Oma Belle.
Chalvin held his breath, muttering inwardly, "Wow, seriously, nih!"
Chalvin scratches his head while thinking of reasons so that Oma does not disturb the couple.
"A ... Darren didn't answer my phone, either, Oma."
"Why they're on the company don't answer the phone."
"A busy time, Oma."
"It's a break!"
"It's like trying to call Darren again! You see Oma wants to make Karen kebaya the grandson of Oma's friend who became a designer, so must invite him to make a body measurement," Oma Belle orders while ruffled waist.
"Can tomorrow - tomorrow's Oma."
"Can't! Oma made an appointment with the designer this afternoon. Come on, Darren's phone, Hp Oma lowbat, nih!"
Chalvin put his phone to his ear, as if he were calling.
"Heh, Chalvin, how does the phone want to get in if you don't press the call button."
Chalvin gasps and realizes that his phone screen only shows Darren's phone contacts.
"Buset nih parents can not be fooled!" inner Chalvin grumbled for a moment.
"Oh, yes, Oma have already bought my new candidate?" Chalvin then tried to divert Oma Belle.
Oma Belle looked at him endlessly. In the next instant, the old woman widened her smile. "You still want Oma to find a mate?"
"hey are. But don't model yesterday again, Oma!"
"Just calm! There are still many stocks of Oma's friends that are suitable for you." Oma Belle patted Chalvin's arm in excitement.
Instead, Chalvin felt his attempt to shift Oma Belle's focus had been successful.
"I want a beautiful and body Spanish guitar cake! Men with high specifications like I should get a woman comparable dong, Oma!" chalvin continued excitedly.
"Quiet down! That easy! But now you call Darren first!" the Oma Belle.

author notes ⁇ ️️
I have not entered 100 chapter gays. Yesterday I had time for this editor to finish until how many chapters? You see, the novel I wrote ended in chapter 100-160 on average. The editor did not give an answer.
I have often said, yes. This is a santuy novel, all the conflicts that are here are not to dramatize (although dramatic things are still needed in this novel), but more to the way the characters seek solutions to the conflicts that are present between them. Communication between newly married couples, and couples who have been married for years is certainly a problem.
Thank you for your support in this simple novel. Thank you for your rate and positive reviews for this novel. Sorry for the irregular updates, for loyal readers must have understood how I wrote to produce a chapter. Make a new reader join, say hello first dong same I do not secretly bae.
