The Dream of the President

Riled

News of the birth of a new member of the Gusta Family began to spread among the company's top brass. Bouquets and flower boards began to arrive. However, Commissioner Gusta asked Niko to restrict the guests who came. No guest is allowed to meet his granddaughter or son-in-law in person. Commissioner Gusta wants to give Shasa privacy to enjoy her time as a new mother.

Another case with the conditions outside the treatment room Shasa who is quite busy with strict guard, in the treatment room it feels so peaceful. Commissioner Gusta and Lady Sofia were never satisfied to look at this first grandchild.

“Ma, does the room have to be decorated this much?” Leo asked in surprise because Lady Sofia brought some people to decorate Shasa's treatment room. There are balloons beautifully arranged, dangling ribbons and some vases containing blue and white roses that look so fresh.

“Leo, your child should be accustomed to seeing the beautiful. From today, no bad thing comes to him.” Lady Sofia replied leisurely without turning away from the baby before her.

“You can entrust your son to us, Leo. You better watch Shafira more. He needs your attention.” Sahut Commissioner Gusta.

Leo shook his head in disbelief. The presence of this little baby has distracted Commissioner Gusta and Lady Sofia to the point that the two are only concerned about the baby even forgetting who the father is.

Shasa chuckled at the great happiness that enveloped these dear ones. Shasa was truly grateful that the presence of his son brought happiness and satisfaction to many people. “Honey..” Shasa calls Leo a little whisper. His hand tried to hint to ask Leo to come closer.

Leo approached Shasa with a smile. He kissed Shasa's forehead for a moment. After removing his kiss, Leo looked at Shasa's face. Somehow Shasa looks many times more beautiful than usual. It was as if a new mother aura was emanating from her face.

“Darling, you see, how they treat our baby?” Leo asked with a smile towards his two grandparents and granddaughter who were chatting.

“That's a natural thing, baby. They are his grandparents. Let our child get acquainted with his grandparents.” Answer Shasa. “I think you're the only winner in this family. But now, there is a new winner who will beat you.”

“What do you mean, baby?” Leo wonder.

“Mama and Papa love you very much. You've always been the champion who wins at home. Mom and Dad can do anything for you. But I think our son will take that position from you.” Clearly Shasa with a mocking smile on his face.

“It's okay if it's our son. I'll win his mother only.” Leo's Temptation on Shasa.

“You are confident once.” Reply Shasa slightly mockingly.

Leo and Shasa laughed.

“Ah!” Shasa.

“Why, darling?” Leo was worried.

“It's okay, baby. A little pain.” Shasa hurriedly replied. He was worried that Leo would act foolishly just because of Shasa's pain. “Honey, I haven't breastfed my son since. How do I do it?”

“You think I know how?”

*****

Four hours after Shasa entered the treatment room, a nurse entered Shasa's room. The nurse came to teach Shasa to breastfeed the baby.

It has been almost an hour, Shasa has not yet released his ASI. The nurse said that the first mother gave birth, it is natural if it is difficult to remove her ASI. The baby also seems restless because it never gets ASI from its mother. Two things Leo noticed. One, the baby looked agitated. Two, Shasa is seen grimacing in pain that either Leo does not know the reason for.

“Suster, why does my wife look in such pain?” Leo wondered with his furrowed forehead.

“Sorry, Sir. Mother who has just breastfed the baby for the first time, may feel pain when trying to remove her breast milk.”

“Ah, pain!” shasa's scream shocked the people in the room.

Lady Sofia rushed to open the closed curtains to see Shasa's condition. Inside the closed curtain were Shasa, Leo, the baby, and the nurse.

“Shasa, relax. Breathe in slowly. This pain is only first of all. Calm down.” Lady Sofia tried to calm Shasa down.

“Ma... hurts once.” Shasa sounded like crying.

“Suster, can we consult a lactation doctor?” lady Sofia asked as she stroked Shasa's back to calm her down.

“Of course you can, Madam. We've scheduled a lactation doctor for the afternoon. Lactation doctor asked us to help Mrs Shasa stimulate her ASI first.” The nurse explained politely.

“Why wait for the afternoon? Bring the doctor now!” Leo began to lose patience. He is also upset to see Shasa in pain but he also does not know how to be angry or how.

“Shasa, relax. Don't worry, we'll ask the doctor the easiest way to get your ASI out.” Lady Sofia glanced at Leo and hinted for him to follow Lady Sofia. The two of them briefly move away from Shasa and the baby.

“Leo, control your emotions well.” Lady Sofia whispered softly to Leo. “Shasa should be calm and should not be stressed. You should encourage him, not even add to the tense atmosphere.”

“Ma, how can I calm down? Shasa was in such pain that even I never wanted any pain to land on her body. I took good care of it until this morning and now I feel like a failure.”

“Leo, God created women with extraordinary powers. That is why women give birth and women breastfeed their children. Of course, God has given that power to all women. It's just that, what distinguishes the magnitude of the strength is how women are able to be patient and sincere about their pain. Last night Shasa gave birth to your son with all the pain he was in. You see? He's capable, right? She was able because she was sincere that pain was for the sake of seeing her child born into the world. Right now, Shasa just needs patience to breastfeed her child. We have to help him be patient.” Madam Sofia explained at length.

Leo took a deep breath. “Alright, Ma. I'll help encourage Shasa.” Firm Leo. Lady Sofia nodded in agreement with Leo's statement just now.

After consulting with a lactation doctor, Shasa must get some special care to smooth her ASI. Doctors also regulate the foods that Shasa should consume over the next few days.

“Ma, I can be frustrated like this.” Leo grumbled in front of Lady Sofia. The two, along with Commissioner Gusta, sit on the couch in Shasa's nursery, while Shasa rests with her baby. “Shasa continues to cry because he has not succeeded in removing his ASI. In fact, she said that she failed at being a mother. How could, Ma, just one day he have said he failed? What I hate the most, she cries every time she sees her baby.” Leo continued his grunt.

Lady Sofia's brainwashing. Since this is Shasa's first experience as a mother, it feels natural that she feels depressed, especially because of confusion to meet the needs of the baby.

“Leo, have you notified Shasa's mother? Maybe his mother can help Shasa.” Mrs Sofia's Proposal.

“Ah, yes! I forgot to ask Haris to tell mom. My mind has branched out somewhere.” Leo immediately took the phone in his pocket and typed a message for Haris' assistant.

A few hours later, four nurses entered Shasa's room. They would start teaching Shasa to slowly sit down. Shasa was seen grimacing several times, making Leo who was watching him not far from Shasa's bed, clenching his hands as if holding back the pain that Shasa felt.

Patently the nurse helped Shasa to sit down. Finally, Shasa was able to sit normally. Some of the nurses were seen talking about something with Shasa. After that, the four nurses came out of the room.

Leo immediately approached Shasa. “Still hurt?” ask Leo worriedly.

“Slight, darling. Just a little. It hurts even more when I'm trying to breastfeed our child. I'm almost desperate.” Shasa replied sadly.

“Honey, if you give up, what about our son?”

“I didn't give up. I just hate myself.” Shasa was getting riled up.

Leo immediately hugged Shasa to calm her down. “Sstt. Be patient a little more.” Leo stroked the back of Shasa's head. Leo realized his shoulders were getting wet. He also let go of his embrace. “Darling, you know what? I hate you crying like this. Don't cry anymore. We have gone through a lot easily. We will also pass this together.”

The sound of the door sliding. Assistant Haris arrived at Shasa's room with several people following behind him. They walked over to Shasa's bed.

“Mother!” Shasa was surprised to see Mother present in front of him.

“Shasa my son...” Mom went straight to Shasa and hugged him. I looked to the right side of Shasa. There was a small bed in which a little baby fell asleep. Mom looked at Shasa with satisfaction and happiness. “You've been the perfect woman today. From today on, there are lives that depend on your heartbeat. You have to live for your son. She needs you.”

“Mother.. I...” Shasa cried again.

“Sha, a mother is a strength to her child. You must be stronger than your son. The greatest power in a man's body is his mind. Therefore, think carefully, then your body will respond well. It's natural for a new mom like you, to have trouble breastfeeding. Its alright. All the new mothers do that. But make sure you only think about the good things. Think about how happy it is when you breastfeed your son.” Mother lectured Shasa and made him to stay firm.

“Kak Shasa, what is the name of my handsome nephew?” chirps of Shabila who looked at the little prince in the room with a sigh.

“She has won my heart even a moment after I saw her. He was born a winner.” Shasa smiled looking at his son.

“Niel. I'll give her the name Niel. He will be a winner wherever he is.” Sahut Leo's.

“Niel Gusta.” Commissioner Gusta completed the name of his eldest grandson. “Haris, tell Niko to take care of her birth documents, after that send her name to the company secretary's office. Register his name as my heir's name. Redirect the assets I have prepared on his behalf. Call my colleagues, soon I will introduce my grandson to the board of directors.” One Commissioner Gusta's order is like a hammer knock that certifies a little baby who still doesn't understand anything of it, as a list of the son of a new conglomerate in the country.
