Still Jefri POV's.
Three hours after the operation. I can control my emotions again. I've erased all the tears that had poured soaked the two corners of my cheeks. Trying to clear my head.
Max also gave me a paper bag, inside which was a piece of clothing I could wear. To change the shirt that now looks very dirty on my body. There's a lot of blood on this shirt. Tika's blood started to dry up as I lifted her up.
With a shaky step I walked towards the restroom not far from there. Then change my clothes. Then I looked at my reflection in the mirror in front of me. I really look fucked up right now. I sighed, then washed my face in the washbasin.
Again in my brain a question was asked, how do I say all this to Tika? He's gonna be really bad. How do I explain it to her?
On the one hand, I broke my promise to him.
My hair, I wish all the problems in my brain would disappear for a moment, but it seems like all just my wishful thinking. Just as I was about to return to the door, suddenly knocked open, Max's head came up from behind the door, then said that Haikal allowed me to enter the room, the place where Tika was lying was yet unconscious.
"Jef, you're allowed inside now."
Spontaneously I pulled a piece of tissue from its place against the wall and rubbed the fine sheet over my face. Immediately I ran small towards the front door of the operating room, where Haikal was already there waiting for me.
"Can I see my son first?" I asked padanga before I saw Tika's condition. I need to see my two children.
Scattering my teeth I can no longer hide accompanied by a tear that re-wetted my cheek. I violently removed the circle, waiting for the answer Haikal would tell me.
I know this is a tough request for him, because I'm his sister-in-law. But I have to see my own son, even if it's in a lifeless condition. And I must be able to let go of all that, because I realize in this world nothing is perfect what is happiness.
"They're being cleaned up" Haikal said slowly.
"I want to bathe them. I beg you." My tears came back, I could no longer stand it. I have long been waiting for their presence.
Haikal finally nodded slowly after he tried to take his breath heavily. Then he took me to follow his steps into the operating room and took me to the delivery room, where my two children were.
My knees are weak. Haikal held both of my shoulders. Behind a large glass I could see both of the boy's faces. He was bathed to wash his body, before a cloth again covered their entire limbs.
A pair of twins, boy and girl. Their faces were so similar to Tika's. His eyebrows, his pointed nose and the two dimples on both cheeks, look so clear without them having to smile first. I just inherited my lips on them. It was all dominated by Tika.
My sobs broke again, my dream of raising them was gone. I have to swallow this bitter pill. Want not.
"You can go inside, because after they're clean. We still have to take them to see Tika, even though Tika is not conscious." Haikal patted me on the shoulder as soon as my hands were propped up against the wall of glass that was the barrier between me and my two children.
I went back to wiping my tears. Trying to control my feelings right now. Time and time again trying to breathe oxygen that I felt more and more sedentary around me. Then slowly breathe through your mouth. And it worked well enough to make me feel calm. The direction of my two eyes still can not be separated from the two of them who are currently being wiped.
"Can I come in?" liriku asked for permission to Haikal who was standing behind me, without looking at him.
"certainly could. Come with me." Haikal allowed me to touch my two children directly.
In a hurry I followed his footsteps. Then we went into a room that called us back to the other door. A nurse came to us after Haikal had given her a code, when we stopped at one door.
The nurse gave me a pair of rubber gloves and thrust them at me. I was confused, because I had previously used a special suit to enter the operating room. "Can't I touch them directly with my hands?"
Haikal seemed to think as I said that sentence. And for some reason, he suddenly grabbed the glove and lowered his head with his hand pushing the door in front of me.
"Come in," she said without looking at me.
I slowly spread my legs. There was no sound of crying in this room. Only the voices of the nurses bathing my two children. They noticed my presence and one of the nurses picked up one of them and thrust it at me.
I nervously welcomed the baby, one of my little angels. I never knew how to hold a baby, only I had time to see the way this nurse held them, and then I practiced.
I can recognize that this one in my hand is my baby boy, our little son. I strengthened this heart to kiss her forehead. I immediately returned it to the nurse.
I don't think I can.
If I could ask, just substitute my life for those two. So that they could breathe fresh air in this world with their mother. I'm willing.

I sat on the floor and leaned against a wall that separated me from my wife. Yes, Tika is now behind the wall behind me, yet unconscious.
After coming out of the baby room, I felt really tired. I no longer cared for the nurses and doctors who passed by and saw me crying. I stopped many times, but many times the tears came back.
Until the moment where I saw Haikal and a nurse who had pushed a baby carriage. "Let's go in." There's not much Haikal said. But I can see his eyes which are also the same as mine.
I stood up from my seat on the floor, then saw my two children who were in the carriage behind Haikal. With a limp step I followed back Haikal's steps which led me into Tika's room. Without thinking, it turns out Tika has been sitting on her bed neatly and her eyes open.
I ran to him and grabbed his body. Bring him into my arms. I poured my sadness back on him. I can't stand to tell the truth. Eventually Haikal patted me on the shoulder. Hinting that I immediately give her space to see her two babies who are no longer breathing.
"The conditions are stable" said a doctor who I had seen examining Tika earlier. He said that to Haikal then Haikal smiled looking at his sister.
"Where are my twin babies?" tika asked quietly while looking at Haikal then looked at me who was trying to wipe away my tears. "You why? I'm fine now. Where are they, Kal?" Tika grabbed Haikal's hand and shook it slowly.
Slowly the nurse who was behind me, pushed a carriage that had previously been sudsh in the room. Approaching him to Tika. He seemed happy to see his twins in the car. Then with the help of the nurse, Tika held one of the babies. Then bring him into his arms.
"Can I hug them both ... simultaneously?" pinta Tika looked at the nurse. The nurse turned to Haikal.
"Yes, can. Help him." Only that was Haikal's answer who then stood up from his original seat on the edge of the bed. Now he chose to stand beside me.
I, Haikal, the doctor and the nurse, did not say a word as soon as Tika managed to anchor her two babies in her arms. He held our baby tight, then glanced at me with a happy smile as well as tears that suddenly appeared in both corners of his eyes.
I turned my body around, unable to feel like I was telling the truth. His happiness, which he had just had a few minutes to feel, should not have been appropriate for me to take back. I covered my mouth with one of my palms. Holding back my crying so as not to break back.
"Are they sleeping?" lirih Tika while grimacing softly, I can still hear her complaint. But it seems that I really can't afford to see it when I listen to the fact that our two hearts are no longer alive.
Suddenly Haikal clasped my shoulder again, asking my permission, so that he would say all that. I nodded slowly, then he stepped forward to confirm his true condition.
"You gave birth by caesarean and they were born with a condition that is no longer berβ"
Oweee ...
Oweee ...
The two babies suddenly burst into tears, so loud that I gasped in shock and immediately turned my head. Not believing what happened. Haikal fell silent, all stunned by the incident.
I walked over, saw the two babies crying and slightly moved their heads and bodies wrapped in cloth. Miracle.
I had a miracle and Tika cried to find her two children who suddenly cried loudly. Very loud. There was nothing I could do but thank me in this heart and then kiss my wife tightly on the forehead.
Smiling in tears of happiness that previously seemed impossible to get.

Don't forget to give your likes and comments after reading ...
Oh yes, I made this story based on research and I found this miracle that really happened and was experienced by a family.
Their baby was declared dead after giving birth, then after two hours the baby was in the arms of the mother, suddenly the baby immediately rebuked which automatically also returned to life.
Thank you to a family in Sydney, Australia. With the name of baby Jamie Ogg who inspired me in writing this very tense scene.
There is a little bit of embarrassment that I added in this episode to make it more drama π
I wrote it was already in tears and spent a box of tissue and this is not more, really π€
Thank you to all of you readers.
With love, though,
Tica.
