Substitute Mother
Chaptre 91. Forgive, not Forget
“Jeff, su-already, please. ssh—sakit”
Tyona's voice faltered from the shock for the sake of the shock she received down there. Jeffrey is like heeding an ear, either not hearing it or Anna's voice is drowning in his own desires. What Jeffrey clearly looks like is still not going to stop. Though after work, Jeffrey had resolved his emotions by inviting—or rather force his passion to Tyona when his wife was taking a bath. I thought that was enough, but Tyona was wrong. Because of the night when he was struggling in a dream, Jeffrey flipped his body, showering him with a soft kiss that turned deeper and deeper. Their sleeping clothes ended up scattered irregularly on the floor along with a blanket that was not clear of its usefulness.
One last push made Jeffrey shout his wife's name. Both breaths are panted. Between fatigue and satisfaction after picking up white.
“I'm sorry, I'm sorry Anna. I'm sorry. forgive me”.
Jeffrey gave her a gentle peck on the forehead. Not just one, but many times. Shaking Tyona's heart again because it remembered the kiss was like a kiss from Jeffrey he longed for. With tears dripping down, Anna nodded faintly. The return of Jeffrey's embrace is still above it. The same hug he felt from his old Jeffrey.
Tonight, for the first time in a long time, Tyona finds her Jeffrey again.

Judith, Tyona, and Hannah.
Three women are different backgrounds whose hearts are swayed by a feeling called love. One struggles to cover up his feelings in order to maintain a precious little time with the man. One is struggling with fears of surviving a relationship tainted with betrayal, or going out to bring. The other was counting the days, as if to be executed. Which he thinks even a much better execution than having to spend the rest of the life with the man he hated.
After Helga turns out to be sensitive enough to see her sister's gesture change, Hannah becomes much more cautious. He continued to visit Mark, but no longer as long as the first. Just half an hour he had already returned to Helga's nursery.
“Good afternoon, dear.” greet Hannah gently. That afternoon was his last visit because Helga was allowed to go home tomorrow. That's why Hannah had to brainwash how she could find a reason to get out of the house so she could see Mark.
“How are you? Are your dreams today exciting? I bet, it must be so exciting. Because you're still comfortable to sleep”
“My face is bad, as always. But at least because of Helga's company at the Hospital, I rarely met Louis. It makes me feel a lot lighter, especially because I can meet you even though I have to steal time”.
“You know, Mark? The day Uncle said I was the only woman mentioned in front of Uncle and Aunt. Uncle also said that he approved of our relationship when they already knew that I was an erotic dancer. I'm deeply moved by the kindness of your parents, Mark. Now I understand why your personality is good, because you inherited it from Uncle and Bibi”
Hannah maintained her smile. “I'm sorry I haven't been able to impress my mother for your kindness. I'm ashamed, Mark. Your parents who incidentally are not random people, want to accept this lowly me. While Mom.. I just look at you like an ordinary, less impressive man. Sorry for not being able to convince my mom that you're the best.”.
“Mark, can you get up as soon as you can and take me away? I don't want to end up with anyone but you. I just want to share a blanket with you. I just want to cook you breakfast. I just want to pair a tie for you”
“I just want you to be my husband, Mark”
Hannah lowered her head, peeked at the back of Mark's hand, not forgetting his cheek. Two places that Hannah never forgot as welcome greetings and farewell greetings when the clock is over. After a few days of meeting Mark, Hannah's feelings were much more organized. No longer drowning in sobs, but more often invites Mark to tell stories. Whatever it is, the important thing is that Mark hears his voice, the important thing is that Mark feels his presence.
Just before the nurse came in and asked Hannah to come out. Without the sweet woman realizing, that there was a small movement of Mark's fingers that he held earlier.

Renatta is in ruins. Jeffrey ignored him again. Ignoring her messages and phone calls, hasn't been home for nearly three days. Making her think back to the beginning of her pregnancy is like making the man disappear swallowed by the earth. Renatta wondered if Jeffrey had not met him. Will it have anything to do with Tyona? Though Renatta believes he has checked Tyona some time ago in their last meeting. He thinks Tyona will surrender and release Jeffrey, but he still has to fight to take the man.
This is Renatta now. Choosing to check his content at Obsgyn Pelita Hospital, not Harapan Hospital as he usually did in previous months. It just so happened that the doctor was Dr. Kiran, who greeted him kindly.
Of course Kiran wasn't really friendly. He only did it because of professionalism. And of course Kiran knows who the patient is dealing with. The name Renatta Kendra is quite memorable and imprints on his memory as a selfless woman who became a thorn in the household of his friend.
“Wah your content is healthy. Heart rate is normal. Preserve, yes?”
Renatta nodded happily. After the USG process is complete, he then returns to the patient seat.
“Doctor, I seem to have been thinking a lot lately. Possibly after this will go to psychiatric poly. Is it safe if I take medication from here along with medication from a psychiatrist?”
Kiran smiled. “Depends on the type of medicine. Ah, I happen to have a colleague from a psychiatric specialist. He is quite competent and trusted many patients, his name is doctor Jeffrey”
The obstetrician was able to see clearly how the look on Renatta's face changed upon hearing Jeffrey's name. Seemed enthusiastic in depth, as if to ask more but hesitant.
“It just so happens that doctor Jeffrey is on the morning shift. So if you want to go to a psychiatrist, now is the right time. But don't be surprised when you see it”
“K-why?”
Kiran cupped one of her palms on the cheek, as if whispering. “Because he's so handsome. So many female patients fail to focus when consulting with her. Instead of telling the symptoms, instead of quietly enjoying the good looks of Jeffrey— I mean doctor Jeffrey”
“But he has disappointed many women, because his good looks can only be seen but can not be had” Kiran chuckled, while writing a recipe for Renatta.
“Why is that so, doctor?”
Kiran put her paraphrase in the recipe, then handed it to Renatta. “Because doctor Jeffrey already has a wife who is also amazingly beautiful. Both made others envious of their affection. Sorry to gossip like this, for the recipe you can redeem at the pharmacy. Always healthy, miss Renatta”
