THE DOCTOR'S LOVE TRAP

48. A glimpse of the past

"Sister, I'm pregnant."

The soft voice greatly shocked El, he wanted to be angry but he was also touched and heartless. He did not know why something like this he had to face in a moment would bear the status of Doctor.

"I'm sorry, brother. I've made everything runyam."

El sighed slowly, swallowing the saliva heavily. The fact that Pevita is pregnant is a kind of heavy lash for her life.

"Sister, answer me, brother. Don't just shut up! Or give me some advice, how should I face my life ahead of me!"

Pevita cried bitterly. Things that make El fed up, annoyed but still feel full.

"I'll accept you, but throw the baby away!" said El coldly. He got up from there, leaving Pevita with a problem that could be said to be quite heavy.

El's feelings raged, he lectured unsettled. Shortly after asking Pevita to abort her womb, El regretted. Deeply sorry. This is not in accordance with his conscience, but he is also unlikely to be responsible because the title of Doctor is waiting for him before the eyes.

El has been in a relationship with his younger brother, Pevita, for about two years now. He loved that girl very much. But Pevita's pregnancy, she couldn't accept.

After arguing with himself, El decides to go back to Pevita. All right, he'll take all this. Pevita is his responsibility. Anyone would blame him without knowing the problem.

Ever since knowing the girl he loved was pregnant, since then he had to suppress his self-ego deeply. He has to give up. Let go of all his achievements for the sake of the girl and marry Pevita. But, before that, he had to know something from the girl. Something that has been entrenched since, in his mind but he did not dare to ask when he saw Pevita.

Unfortunately, once El arrives at Pevita's parents' house. He was showered by blasphemy, mockery and swearing.

"Based on breng sek! You got Pevita in big trouble and you want to wash your hands?"

Plaque!

A hard slap landed on El's cheek, it was a gift given by Claire, Pevita's sister.

"What do you mean, Claire?"

"My sister's pregnant, El. You know that, don't you?"

El nodded. He came back here to make a decision to marry Pevita.

"Bia dap! You asked her for an abortion, right?"

"What??"

"Yes, you asked her to drop her womb and Pevita did what you asked, Bo doh!"

"I-I just wanted to pull my words, Claire!"

Claire looked at El Nyalang. "Now Pevita is critical! You're satisfied, right? So you can escape your responsibility!" blasphemy.

"Where's Pevita? Where's she being treated?" El panic.

"You don't even deserve to see my sister again, El! Go you, to the rat!"

"You don't deserve to be a doctor!"

"You have no conscience!"

"You're a human scum! It's useless! You're destroying my brother's future!"

Two days El searched for Pevita's whereabouts in every hospital in the city, but the girl he could not find anywhere.

On the third day, El decided to beg, if necessary he would bow at the feet of Pevita's parents to get news about the girl, but what he got there was to witness the ceremony of her lover's death. Pevita died from the abortion the girl had. Buried all hope of his future with Pevita, and could not answer the questions that entrenched him since he knew Pevita was pregnant.

The oath of grace was given Pevita's parents to him.

"Based on breng sek! Men don't know themselves! I'll charge you to the court table!" as for Isaac, Pevita's father.

From that moment on, El loved trauma. Love is a trap that takes it. He regretted asking Pevita to abort the baby. She also regrets not being able to meet her lover until Pevita is completely picked up by death. But, what he regretted the most was that the one Pevita conceived was not his son! He never touched Pevita that far. He appreciates his girl. What's wrong if he doesn't accept the child from Pevita's affair? This is the main factor he does not trust love anymore.

That makes it difficult to open the heart, assuming that love never existed. How many times did Pevita say she loved him? The proof is that he betrayed. Pevita is pregnant with another man who until now El never knew who the man was, when that was what he wanted to ask Pevita. Who is responsible for the pregnancy? Why was El held accountable, just because he was Pevita's lover?

He was exposed to the sap, but I don't know who enjoyed the fruit.

Life is so funny sometimes. The universe is playing with love.

However, El still regretted and blamed himself because he had mispronounced Pevita at that time, although he changed his mind and finally wanted to marry Pevita even though he was not the one who did, he said, but in reality Pevita died from abortion and it was still her fault.

Every day, El blames himself. He lost Pevita, but he lost his identity as well.

She had already explained to Claire and her parents that she did not impregnate Pevita. But all his words were considered nonsense. Only three people believed him at the time. The first is her father, Elena and Xander, her best friend.

El even had to accept the moment he was beaten by Isaac. He also faces the police. But, because Pevita came to the abortion clinic without her knowledge and was not with her, she was free from the demands of Pevita's parents.

His life was almost ruined, his college was in disarray, his father even had a heart attack. But, Xander did do a lot of meritorious to him, encouraging him and making him have a purpose in life.

"I believe it wasn't you who impregnated her, I would say so if my lover became pregnant with someone else and then held me accountable. Forget it, forget it, keep on with your new life. You're a good man, El!" Xander supported him until he joined the ranks and entered the world of surgical specialists.

Pevita's parents' curse didn't happen to her, now that El has married Abrine, but would Abrine believe her if he found out about it?

El hugs his wife, since meeting Claire again and hearing Pevita's name called again, she is getting more upset. He remembered his past. Not to mention the problem of origin that Erika had mentioned.

His head almost broke from thinking about all this. But, looking at the shady face of his sleeping wife, he regained his calm. He found peace when he saw Abrine's face, though he denied it but now he believes it.

"El, haven't you slept all night?" Abrine moves. He looked at El Lekat. "El, what's wrong with you?" tanyanya began to realize her husband's sad face.

"Darling, do you believe me?" el asked with teary eyes.

"Yes, of course I believe you, El. Why are you asking that?"

Elrich hugged the body of his wife who had been sitting but still in their bed.

"Can you ignore what other people say about me? I can't if you leave me, if later you find out the big mistake I made in the past."

"What mistake?"

El told Abrine everything. He tries to be open so that his wife does not misunderstand him someday. Let his name be ugly in the eyes of others, but in front of his wife, he still wants to be the best.

"So, they're all accusing you of impregnating Pevita and running away from responsibility?"

El nodded. "Yes, my mistake was to tell her to drop her womb. I didn't expect him to actually do that. I've become an indirect killer, Brine!" El continues to blame himself.

Abrine cupped the side of the husband's face. She shook her head. "No, El. Don't blame yourself. Everything that happened was the way, including Pevita's death. Her life is not your responsibility, El," Abrine said in a statement.

"But I told him to do it even though I changed my mind."

"I knew. But, Pevita should also still be able to choose the best for her, that is her life, El. He can determine the best path for himself."

"Everyone blames me."

"You must have been through some tough days all along." Abrine hugged El very tightly. "I believe you, El. My husband is an optimistic and strong man."

"Thank you, you want to trust me, baby. But, after knowing this, should we indeed delay having children first?"

"Why?"

"I won't burden you...."
