"mas, I want to go for a walk". I feel tired because I have to tilt constantly.

"can you do it, baby?". mas bram keeps worrying about me.

"yes mas".

I slowly woke up, mas bram continued to help me and followed from behind.

"hmmm..... ". i kept breathing and breathing slowly.

"hurt, baby?". mas bram noticed me.

"a little mas. oh yes mas, mama and papa have arrived? ". because I haven't heard from mom and dad.

"it's a pity, but mama and papa go home first, maybe tomorrow will be here?". replied mas bram.

"yes, it's okay". I kept walking around the room.

"hooamm". mas bram looks tired and sleepy.

"mas, I want to sleep again".

"why, baby?  you've only been out for a while".mas bram led me to the bed.

"mas, you rest".

"definitely because I yawned earlier, right. I'm not sleepy baby, I still want to accompany you aja".

"mas, will you see what time it is.

"clock 00:15 babe".maus bram saw his watch.

"that means you have to rest baby, why you force it anyway mas if tired".

"okay, I'll sleep on that couch and if you feel pain or need anything else call me aja ya baby". finally mas bram listen to me.

"yes mas".

mas Bram went to the sofa and braided his body, he looked very tired but he tried to take good care of me.

"i'm sleeping, baby". mas bram started to close his eyes.

when mas bram fell asleep, while I myself could not close my eyes. I felt restless but I did not want to show it in front of mas bram, because I did not want to make him worry more.

"hhmm.. hhufft.. hhmm.. hhufftt". the pain started coming again and this time it hurt more.

"auuwwhh my stomach..it hurts a lot".my hand held the end of the bed.

the pain was overwhelming this time and I could barely hold it, it felt like the baby was about to come out.

"do I pee, how much water seems to come out.

after I checked, a lot of water came out and soaked my body.

"mas... ". i tried to wake up mas bram but mas bram didn't listen.

"aahhhhh is very sick".

many times I woke up mas bram but he did not wake up either. I also tried to press the emergency button but my hand and could not reach it.

"mas... it hurts so bad". I started to shed my tears.

hearing me cry in pain, mas bram immediately woke up and ran towards me.

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

"sick mas, it hurts my stomach". I cried because I couldn't bear the pain.

"for a while, baby, I call the doctor first". mas bram immediately out to call the doctor.

"fuck you, I can't take it anymore".

a little while later mas bram came with the doctor and some sisters.they started to check on me and said that the baby would be born soon.

"dok, the establishment has broken and has dried up". said the nurse who examined me.

"is the opening complete?". asked the doctor.

"dock already, the baby's head is already visible".

"alright, immediately set the position as comfortable as possible and prepare the tools".

"well doc".the sisters seemed to be busy preparing everything to help me deliver.

"karin, please set his breath and strain as long as possible, if you can just once strain.

"iyaa doc.

"honey, you definitely can. You should be excited huh". mas bram stood beside me.

"wait until it hurts a lot first, only you start to push yes, yes karin spirit". doctor jeff also gave support to me.

"hmmmm... ahhh.

"ayoo dear spirit ya". occasionally mas bram wiping my sweat.

"hhuuhh.. huuhh... hhuhh.. I can't afford mas". I feel like all my energy is drained.

"sadly don't say that, you can definitely love". mas bram unceasingly encouraged me.

"ayo karin, once again you are circulating for sure the baby is born immediately. try to set the breath first so that it can strain properly.

"emmmmmmppp... aaghhh".it felt like my life was floating and my whole body was shaking.

"oeekkk.. ooeekk.

"the baby is out, happy and healthy.

"honey, you managed to give birth to our child safely". mas bran looked so happy.

I could say nothing more, I could only smile broadly at the fact that my son had been born into the world.

"the baby is male and in perfect condition and safe.

"unfortunately, our child has been born". said mas bram very happy.

I could only cry, my tears were rushing unbearably.I felt so happy and relieved, I could hear the cry of my baby and see it born safely.

happiness that I cannot express with words, all I shed with tears.I also saw the same thing with mas bram, he shed his tears well.

"the nurse immediately put the baby in the incubator and take it to the neonate room (baby).

"well doc". immediately the nurse did as Jeff's doctor ordered.

"for a while we separate the baby from the special room, because the baby weighs 1300 grams so it must be put in the incubator".doctor jeff explained it to me and mas bram.

"yes I understand jeff, do your best for my son.

after Jeff's doctor removed the baby's placenta, Jeff's doctor gave me some stitches in the slightly torn birth canal.

"it's done everything, wait 2 hours for monitoring the bleeding yes.if everything is safe there is no bleeding, karin can be moved to the treatment room.

"well jeff, thank you very much". mas bram shook doctor jeff's hand.

"sama-sama bram, well excuse me first". doctor jeff came out leaving me and mas bram.

"mas, I am thirsty" said I, who was thirsty after struggling.

"oh, it's a pity to drink slowly yes". mas bram helped me to drink.

"how do you love?". asked mas bram.

"i feel relieved and I'm happy there's nothing else I need to worry about". I stared at the bram mas with teary eyes.

"i am also happy dear, thank you for giving birth to our child safely and thank you for your struggle dear.

"have you told mom and mom?".

"dear, mom will come later and mom will take alisya school first just come.

I continued to hold the hand of mas bram who was beside me. the feeling of happiness, haru, sadness mixed into one. the sadness when I could not see my son directly, I was sad, I can't even hug her yet.

mas Bram who saw me sad immediately wiped away my tears that flowed on the cheeks.

"don't be sad baby, we pray that our son is okay.

"iya mas". answered me with a sniffle.

I also hope my son quickly improves his condition, so that I can hug him and give him ASI directly.

"karin". mama came up to me and kissed me on my forehead.

"sorry, if my mom and dad are late.

"it's okay pa". I replied.

"have you given a name?". asked papa.

"already pa, his name is Abyan Alexi pa". replied mas bram.

"wahh what a cool name".mama likes to hear his name Good.

"papa likes his name, hopefully he can be a protector for his family". papa knows very well what the name of my son means.

"iyaa wants to, where is papa's grandson.

"there's a special room pa, let me take you there".

"mama wants to come along too". asked papa

"well, mom brought flowers and gifts for your child.

"thank you ma".

"your mother didn't come?". asked Mama.

"come ma, last night was here but mom came home to accompany alisya.

"mother.

mom came up to me and clenched my forehead.

"sorry baby, mom wasn't there next to you in childbirth".

"it's okay buk, after all there is a mas bram who accompanied me.

papa, mama, dad, mom and mas bram they sit on the sofa in the room, they are seen talking well.

it's been 5 hours since I gave birth, my breasts feel stiff and sore, sometimes I whine in pain.

mas Bram who saw me groaning in pain immediately approached me.

"why dear? ".

"it hurts so much my breasts, it looks like they're swollen".

"in a moment, I'll call the nurse first". mas bram goes out to call the nurse.

"why dear?". mother also came to me.

"sick ma'am". I'm holding my tits that hurt.

"ohh, this is because you don't give breast milk to your child, so it hurts".

the nurse called Mas Bram came to check on me.

"the mother of karin has inflammation due to ASI, so we will do an ASI pump so that the swelling is reduced.

"well sister, I can't stand it anymore.

"several yes ma'am, we pump her ASI". the nurse took a tool to remove ASI.

"hold on a little, baby". mas bram gave me spirit.

"has the baby been drinking breast milk?". asked the mother.

"already ma'am, we gave formula milk and this milk will also be given so that the weight quickly increases.

Inflammation Breast that I feel really aches and pains even in touch was sick, but after the nurse pumped my ASI, the pain was reduced and was no longer awake.

"it's finished ma'am, then once per 2 hours we will do the pump back so as not to swell again.

"yes sister, thank you.

"how dear?  is it okay?". asked bram.

"well, it doesn't hurt much anymore".

"do you want to eat?". asked the mother.

"no ma'am, later".

"yes, you take a break". Mom sat back with parents mas bram.

"what time is it.

"still at 9am, what's the matter, baby.

"i think of alisya mas".

"don't worry baby, I called bi nina to bring alisya here when I get home from school.

"he must have felt lonely because we didn't notice him and I missed alisya mas more and more.

it was only a few hours that I did not see alisya, I felt very long for him. Usually every day I was always with alisya and now we are separated between home and hospital.

"honey, don't think too much. alisya is fine and he must know dear.

when my mind is divided between alisya and abyan, mas bram always gives me his passion and support for me.

I am very grateful for being given a good husband and understanding like mas bram, even having a family that is always there and ready to help me.

"bram, papa and mama want to go to the office first yes.there is someone who wants to meet with papa.

"yes pa, be careful on the road.

"mama's gone for a while, mama's coming back here again.

"yes ma, it's okay".

however, papa still has shares in the company mas bram, some of the company's work is also held by papa. if papa has returned home, he will be a little busy with his business.

"is there a problem with the company.

"no dear, papa only met his colleagues from the Netherlands.

"bram, alisya what time is school?". asked the father.

"at 11pm yeah". replied mas bram.

"later let father pick up alisya ya".

"ohh yeah yeah".

"mother come with me". said mother.

"father just picked up alisya aja ma'am.

"all between shopping mothers to the supermarket well, I want to make lunch for karin and bram".

"no ma'am, let me just buy her lunch later". replied mas bram.

"eehh no, do not get used to all having to buy. mother will cook for you.

"already bram, let it be if your mother wants to make you lunch.

"yes father". mas bram also smiled.

that's mother, she does not like to eat ready-to-eat food.mother always pay attention to the quality of food eaten by her family. Therefore mother really likes to cook even though for some people it is very troublesome.

"indeed like that mother mas, understand it". I said to mas bram, I was afraid bram offended.

"yes dear is okay, mother also wants the best for her child". replied mas bram with a smile.

although mas bram rarely meet with the mother but mas bram can understand the mother.
