The Love of the Sinner

Chapters 2. Three Months Pregnant

"Miss' Village has entered three months, congratulations. Since it's a first trimester pregnancy, keep it in good shape, yeah." The obstetrician explained through the screen when Aulia conducted an examination through the USG.

Aulia's body trembled, not the sense of happiness she was feeling right now. He felt a sense of fear. How will Papa and Mama Rangga react? What about his Father who always reminds him not to get involved with the act of promiscuity.

Aulia now felt her mind was in turmoil. Although he had already prepared himself for this reality, it was still different in time when he saw that there was a small lump inside his stomach.

"Thank you doctor. We will take good care of this fruit of love," replied Rangga.

While on the way home, both Aulia and Rangga were both silent. Both of them were thinking, what about their future? Neither Aulia nor Rangga were ready to have children.

"Sister Rangga, now what should we do?" aulia asked with tears in her eyes.

"Do you better get out of town? Coincidentally going to college, right. I'll always visit you there, later." Rangga held the hand of his lover.

"So, I hid this pregnancy by going out of town?" ask Aulia with doubt.

"Yes, just tell me we're husband and wife to the people there. They won't know who we really are" replied Rangga.

Aulia looked at Rangga and thought of her idea just now. He did not expect this to be the answer. When she asked Rangga for accountability for her pregnancy.

Both agree with the idea. Though Aulia has been accepted at a favorite public university, now enroll in a private university in another city. He is willing to do this for the sake of his love for Rangga and for the baby in the womb.

Three days passed when Aulia was declared pregnant by a doctor. He still likes to vomit early in the morning. This made Yusril worried.

"Son, you we go to the doctor, yeah! You've noticed the last few days you've been vomiting constantly" Yusril asked as she stood in front of the bathroom door.

How shocked Aulia was when she saw her father there. His pale face was getting more and more.

"Lia might catch a cold, sir. Drinking ginger wedang also seems to heal quickly," said Aulia with a thin smile.

Yusril also dumped the garbage into the garbage tub that was in the street of his house. He threw out two medium-sized plastic bags. When he put the garbage there was a test pack that poked out of the scraping bag he had brought. His hand stretched out shakily picking up that long, blue-colored flat object.

"Why is there something like this in my garbage bag?" yusril gumam.

DEG!

Suddenly his body weak, he remembered his daughter who often vomited in the morning. Then he rushed back to his house and looked for Aulia.

"Lia! Lia!" yusril shouted as she walked towards her daughter's room.

"What's up, sir?" sahut Aulia walked over to her father.

"Whose property is this? Why is it in the garbage scraping bag of our house?" yusril asked with a sharp look towards her daughter.

Aulia widened her eyes, her heart rumbled and cold sweat flooded her body. His face turned pale and his eyes were teary. His tongue felt faint and he had difficulty speaking.

"Is this yours?" asked Yusril with a hissing.

"Who did you do it with?" yusril asked in a high tone as she started to ride the apoplexy.

"Say Aulia!" Yusril was very angry especially his daughter just kept quiet and instead cried.

"Say who's the baby's father?" Yusril clasped both of Aulia's arms.

Aulia nangis was stunned while bowing her head. He could not speak or only name the man who gave his seed and planted it in his stomach.

"alright. If you still don't want to tell me who that man is. I had to push you out of the house. Go to the man who made you pregnant. Sana holds him accountable" Yusril said, opening the door to her house, sending Aulia out of her house.

"Sir, Lia's sorry." Aulia sat down on the floor and begged her father for forgiveness.

"Say who is the man who impregnated you?" yusril asked firmly by looking at her son.

"She .. Kak Rangga," replied Aulia finally honest.

"You mean .. Rang-ga Mr. Abi's son-where?" yusril asked stammered in disbelief.

"Yes, Sir. Rangga's sister Pak Abimana," said Aulia confirmed.

"Astaghfirullahal. Lia, what has she done to you? Did he rape you?" asked Yusril with a huff.

"No, Sir. We've been dating for more than two years" Aulia replied with a sense of shame and guilt for her father.

"You …!" Yusril pointed her index finger at Aulia.

"Again, Sir. Forgive Lia. Lain and Kak Rangga love each other. We also do it because we like to like" Aulia said.

Yusril who could not hold back her anger anymore, slapped Aulia's cheek hard until her son fell to the floor. He could no longer forgive his daughter's mistakes.

"Lia, how many times have you said. Do not let you fall into that free association of sins! Every day I talk to you and you just think that the words of the father are the wind!" yusril shouted while trapping her own hair. He felt he had become a failed father because he could not keep his daughter from committing adultery.

Maybe if Aulia got pregnant from being raped, Yusril wouldn't be this angry with her child. This is her daughter saying she likes likes. They do it in a conscious state. Which father's heart will not be hurt and angry, knowing this.

"Did Rangga know you were pregnant?" asked Yusril with a hissing.

"Yes, Brother Rangga knows," Aulia replied as she nodded her head.

"Then what did he say?" yusril asked with an intense gaze on Aulia's eyeballs.

"Sister Rangga said, if you do not want to abort this baby. Lia has to move to another city. Where no one recognized Lia. Brother Rangga will often visit Lia there and claim we are husband and wife," replied Aulia slowly because she was afraid in the pressure of Yusril's eyes were so sharp.

"What's? Are you sure that he will really take responsibility for you and the baby in your stomach" asked Yusril with a slanted smile. He thought that Aulia was stupid because it was easy to be lied to by others.

Aulia was silent and thought about the words her father had said.

What will Yusril do? Will Rangga be responsible? Wait for the continuation yes!
