Chapters 11. The Dancer



"where's bram?  I want to meet him". shouted madam lidya.


"sorry ma'am, mr. bram is not at home.the master is on a business trip abroad.


"tell Bram, I as Grace's mother or Alisya's grandmother don't approve of this woman as a mother to my grandchild".


"mom, calm down. this non-karin is the choice of mr. bram and no one can oppose it".


I was just speechless hearing the debate between bi nina and lidya's mother.I didn't dare to answer her words.


"alisya is afraid of mother". alisya looks at me with a sad face.


"don't be afraid baby, there's a mother here".


bi nina still continues to try to calm lidya's mother, but it seems that lidya's mother didn't listen to her.


I kept staring at them, until I could no longer hear what they were talking about, all my eyes blurred and blurry, until it looked dark.


"mother.. ". I heard the cry of his eyebrows.


"non, wake up non........ ".

bedrooms...


I opened my eyes and my vision was a little blurred, I saw alisya sleeping beside me, I was thinking when I could fall asleep.I saw the clock was showing at 23:20 p.m.


"alisya.". I called out to alisya in a soft voice.


"you're awake".I'm surprised to hear the sound of mas bram next to me.


"aggh geez mas, why surprise me". I held my chest that was stubborn in surprise.


"you who surprised me, you must have passed out for hours and hours without waking up".


"me?  passed out?  when did you?". I tried to remember.


"you don't remember anything, 'let's see your face is hurt". mas bram approached and gave me a mirror.


I looked at my face in the mirror


"ahhh this.... ".


"ahh this you say. Your face is hurt and you faint oh this is your reaction". mas bram is a little angry at me.


"mas, I'm fine, it's just a small wound right".


"you... ".


"sssttt don't shout mas, see dong his son sleep". I glared at mas bram.


"just a few days you've been like this, can't you take care of yourself".


I was upset to hear mas bram say, as if he was blaming me for everything that happened.


"gold!!  you think I was intentionally hurt, and you think this is my will. Why the hell from earlier you said it was as if you blamed me. can't you ask how I am?  how do I feel? .Do you have to be angry like this".


bram was silent for a moment hearing my words.


"it's not so karin, I just.... ".


"ahh already mas, I don't want to discuss it anymore. I'm in no mood to quarrel with you". I immediately pulled the blanket and hugged his eyebrows.


mas Bram approached me and tried to explain everything.


"it's not like that baby, I'm just worried about you".


I turned my body facing the bram mas.


"so on what mas, I should be angry with you.several days, invite you to Singapore very difficult I call, even no you can not be on the phone".


"sorry baby, I was wrong but it's all because I forgot to change the sim card". mas bram gave me an absurd reason.


"we're the mas, I'm badmood again".


somehow my mood changed when I saw the mas bram in front of me, even before I missed it a lot.Is it possible because of my pregnancy, my mood so not because of.


"honey, I'm sorry. I'm just worried, not angry with you".


"sstttt.. please mas, yes, I don't want us to argue in front of alisya".


mas bram's face looked lethargic, I knew he was tired because of his business but I was also disappointed with his angry attitude without asking anything first.


"y uda, you rest first yes. tomorrow if you have calmed down our minds omongi again". mas bram go out entaha where.


in an instant I immediately shed my tears, I turned rude to mas bram, I shouldn't have snapped at mas bram like that.


"pardon me mas".I cried while hugging his alisya.

the next morning....


like the morning before, it was difficult for me to wake up early because I always felt nauseous and wanted to vomit, even some days I often felt a great dizziness.


"i feel nauseous again.. hueekk... huekk".


I ran to the bathroom and vomited out everything I could.


"hukk... ".


"honey, what's wrong with you?". .


I shook my head, hinting that I was okay.


"you've been like this since I left for Singapore right, what's the matter baby.don't you get pregnant huh?".


bram immediately sensed what happened to me, could guess that I was pregnant.


obviously, the truth is that she already knew about pregnancy.


"yes, I'm pregnant".


mas Bram looked so happy to hear the news of my pregnancy, he immediately hugged me and gently rubbed my stomach.


"happy baby, we finally have another child.I'm so happy baby". mas bram did not stop yelling happily.


"gold you go, I'm getting nauseous when you shake my body.


"sorry dear sorry. cup.. ". mas bram keeps kissing my cheek.


"hhh mas, geez really yeah, dong already".


"have you been to the doctor?".


"yet".


"why?".


"why do you think mas?". I frowned at me.


"hehehehehe yes dear, today we go to the doctor together ".


I just answered by nodding my head.


"okay.ok, baby, I'll take a shower".


"don't wait a long time, we have breakfast together".


"okay my dear, mmuaach.... ". again bram kissed me.


after I prepared the bram mas clothes, I walked towards the kitchen to help bi nina prepare breakfast.


"morning non". said bi nina.


"morning is also bi, it's finished bi breakfast".


because I was still a little weak, I chose to sit in the kitchen chair.


"how is it not? geez, the face is not until scratched".


"i'm fine bi. o yaa bi, which yesterday was her mother grace.


"iya non, his mother non grace is a little rude non, and the mother lidya who used to force the master to quickly marry non grace".


"why is that so bi?".


"in the past, the great master (papa bram) did not approve of mr. bram to marry too soon non, because mr. bram was still doing his first and not so great effort, once lidya's mother knew that Mr. Bram was the son of the richest man in the country, mother lidya immediately forced the master to get married".


"then, mas bram agreed bi?.


"yes non, want to not let the master agree to it than the master must lose non grace, that's the beginning of a great quarrel between non grace and his mother".


"but why did mas bram never want to tell ya bi and problems yesterday, did mas bram know that lidya's mother who hit me bi?".


"tau non, not long when non fainting. because at that time the master got home and the mother lidya still here non. the master was very angry non with mother lidya after aunt told me everything".


"even the master is more furious when you know that non is pregnant. the master immediately threw out the lidya bu. It's possible that if the lidya bu is a guy, it's been battered in the face of the non lord".


after I thought something was strange, bi nina said that mas bram was very angry because she knew I was pregnant. But why this morning she pretended to be surprised after knowing I was pregnant.


"so mas bram know that I'm pregnant from last night bi?". I still can't believe, actually what's with mas bram.


"yes non, but.... ".bi nina pronunciation stopped when you see the bram turin mas from the top floor.


"what the hell is it?  how exciting it seems to be the chatter". asked mas bram.


"it's nothing mas, regular chat girls".


"the story will be continued later again.I have a very dear laper". mas bram holding his stomach.


"yes it's bi, please call her alisya yes".


"good non".


I stared at mas bram's face, like a lot he hid but his facial expression looked relaxed.


"honey ,hey..why daydreaming".


"ahh it's okay mas. seguini nasanya mas, enough?". I poured rice into a dish mas bram.


"honey, thank you".


"why do you wear casual clothes?  do you not go to the office? ".


"dear, today I'm taking you to the doctor for a check-up".


"i can go by myself".


hearing my words, Bram stopped his eating.


"honey, I'm your husband so I have to take responsibility for the safety of my wife and my future child.I also want to know the progress of her pregnancy problems".


I smiled and looked into the eyes of Mas Bram


"that's very kind of my husband".


"mother...... ". shouted alisya.


"good morning dear, kiss your mother first". alisya immediately kissed me without saying no.


"papa wants to too".


"mmmuaach.... ". alisya kissed both cheeks mas bram.


"thank you for your love papa". mas bram stroked his alisya hair.


at first I was a little afraid to see the state of alisya this morning, because kamaren he watched me hit by mother lidya. I feel guilty, because it makes alisya witness violence directly.


"eat a lot baby.


****


the journey to the hospital.....


"wear the seat belt baby".


"yes" I'll wear it soon.


the atmosphere was a bit awkward when in the car, a lot I wanted to ask but my lips seemed to be silent can not say it. occasionally my eyes continue.looking at maa bram who was driving the car.


"what's up, honey?  why look at me like that".


"it's okay, man".


"let's say something if you have something to say, baby".


for a moment I thought, when else would I have a chance to ask about something that made me curious.


"gold".


"why dear".


"actually you already know that I was pregnant from bi nina last night when I passed out. Then, why did you pretend to be surprised this morning?".


bram was a little surprised because I knew it.


"ohh.bi nina it can not keep a secret really". said mas bram while laughing.


"answer mas".


"yes dear. yes really, last night bi nina told me all about your problems pregnant, problems for a week you resist nausea, your problems in being beaten, I know everything from bi nina".


"why act like you don't know anything?".


"because I know your struggles dear, you hold everything for the sake of surprise for me. You feel nausea and pain just because I want me to take you to the hospital to check the womb. so I'm acting like I don't know to make you happy. I don't mean anything else baby, really".


I lowered my head and played my fingers.


"you shouldn't have to pretend".


mas bram took my hand


"forgive me, baby".


"then the matter of bu lidya mas".


"you don't think about it, yeah, it has nothing to do with you, let me finish it".


"but why mas?


"sssttt..already yes dear do not discuss anymore. I do not want you too much thought".


"yes mas".


maybe there is something that can not be explained, but yes, I also have no right to ask badly.


"we've arrived baby, wait a minute let me open the door". mas bram quickly get out of the car.


"no, I can do it myself... ".


"please get out, baby".


I smiled at the behavior of Mas Bram who was so attentive to me.


"i'm a little worried mas, I'm nervous to see a doctor.


"don't worry baby, this gynecologist is my friend, everything will be fine".


I shouldn't have to worry, because there was a bram mas by my side. With him, I became excited.


"thank you, I'm gonna go get me".


mas bram rubbed my head


"it's my duty, baby".


as we headed to the doctor's room, there were some people greeting mas bram.


"good morning, Mr. Bram, there's something I can help you with.


"morning too. ahh it's okay, I can be alone".


"honey, this is the executive director of this hospital".


"greetings to mom".


"salam knows you again sir".


"alright sir, I want to see Doctor Jeff first.


"good sir, please".


no wonder, if all the agencies in this city know mas bram.so popular mas bram among the higher ups.


"you're like an artist, you know, everywhere you know".


"those who know me for working together often dear".


"including this hospital mas?".


"hmm yeah baby, even my shares have reached 54% in this hospital".


I was shocked to hear what mas bram said and stopped my steps.


"what? it's called this hospital is already yours mas".


"you're surprised, yes, this hospital is ours, baby".


I did not realize that mas bram was so rich, because as long as I was mas bram's wife, I never asked about her property or what she had.


I just thought that mas bram was just a director at his parents' company.
