The sound of crying babies echo in the delivery room. A single tear soaked the husband and wife's cheeks. Only the two of them were in the hospital and strengthened each other. Who else if not Hanif and Kinan. No one knows if they are in the hospital.
Especially with Kinan who has just passed the delivery period. When they find out, they will be angry. However, Hanif was grateful, everything passed well and quickly. They had been going to Mama Aisyah's house, but on the way Kinan felt his heartburn.
Just heartburn a few seconds later no longer and heartburn returns. And so on, until long ago made Kinan unable to stand it. Hanif took the wife to the hospital where she usually checks. Both believe that the doctor who treated the woman knew more about her condition than any other doctor.
When examined, it is time to give birth. The doctor suggested that Kinan walk around, it was to speed up the opening. It is true that not until one hour, their baby who is female is finally born too. Hanif also did not give any news to his family, fearing that it would make them even more worried.
Moreover, Mama Aida who is always excited about anything, which happens to her son and daughter-in-law. Luckily Kinan was fine, and so was their son. Hanif hugged his wife so tightly. He was proud of that woman for being able to get through all of this well.
Seeing Kinan's extraordinary struggle, made the man feel guilty for Mama Aida. During this time sometimes he likes to argue what his mother ordered. Now Hanif could see for himself, that giving birth was really risking his life. Wrong for a little, life can be lost.
"Thank you, honey. Thank you very much" whispered Hanif quietly, accompanied by flowing tears.
Kinan only gave a small nod, without being able to say anything, his throat as though it was choked. He was so moved that he could not say anything.
"Sir, this is his son please in Azani," a female nurse told Hanif.
The man broke his embrace to his wife. Hanif received the little baby with tears still continuing to drip. He had not expected that he would carry such a small baby. The man abused his daughter in the right ear and Iqamah in the left ear.
Hanif is happy. He didn't expect to get through all of this so easily. Though the man heard a lot from outside about the process of giving birth that is so difficult. However, it was not experienced by Kinan. Hanif is so grateful for that.
"Darling, look at our baby. She is very beautiful, just like you," said Hanif, who brought his daughter closer to his wife. Kinan also smiled to see her.
"Yes, Mas. She's very pretty. She'll definitely beat my beauty, yeah!" sahut Kinan jokingly. The two chuckle together.
"Sorry, Mom. Let me help you with early breastfeeding initiation!" said the doctor who helped deliver Kinan.
Hanif handed back his daughter to the doctor. He let the doctor help Kinan to process the IMD. The man just looked at it, without commenting. Hanif was so happy to be able to feel every process as the wife went through labor.
After his wife gave birth, it turned out that his struggle was not over. It may never even be finished. Now breastfeeding, there will definitely be more, again and again. When his son is married, his job is done. Even sometimes some children also, still need their parents even though there is a husband nearby.
The role of parents is never replaced by anything. So is Hanif who always needs Mama Aida and Papa Vishnu despite already having a wife.
Hanif remembered his family. The man was also willing to come out. He will contact his family and his in-laws. Surely later he will get a long scolding because no, giving news when Kinan feels pain. He gave me news when his son was born.
The man is ready if he has to get a scolding from the parents. Let it be that way because he is guilty. The most important thing for Hanif at the moment was that Kinan and his daughter were safe and in good health. Hopefully next is like that too.
After a few minutes, Kinan was transferred to the hospital room, while the baby was still under the doctor's observation. The baby is in the baby room. Tomorrow can only be gathered with his parents, it was after the doctor declared his condition healthy.
"You told the family, Mas?” ask Kinan with his weak voice.
"Oh, just now. You know how they react. You just wait later," Hanif replied making Kinan smile.
Hanif sat next to his wife's bed. The man clasped the palm of the woman, who had already given birth to a daughter for him. He's really happy today.
"Thank you for fighting this far. I'm honestly very proud of you. At first I doubted that you could go through the process of giving birth like this. Especially when I know that giving birth is so painful. There I'm not sure about you, but whatever it is I will always support you. It turns out I was wrong, you're a great woman, very very great. I can't say anything more, to describe how impressed I am with you."
Hanif kissed the wife's hand with tears. Kinan was also crying. Let alone others, he alone never believed, if he could go through labor so easily. Before that, the woman was afraid to go through the process.
Especially when hearing the story of Zayna's previous childbirth. It made her so scared. As much as she could set her heart, that everything would be fine. Finally everything was like what the woman believed, everything went smoothly even though it initially felt difficult.
"Mas, remember our promise, that we will not distinguish between Adam and our daughter. Both are our children, there is no difference" said Kinan who suddenly remembered his son.
"Of course, I've said before, that Adam was our first child and our daughter was our second child. By the way, have you found a suitable name for our daughter? A few days ago, we have thought of several names, have you determined, want to choose which one?”
"Already, Zea Sadiya Arkham.”
Hanif recited his daughter's name. "Good! I agree with your chosen name. Who's calling, honey?"
"Zoe."
Hanif Asks his wife to rest. The woman's face was very tired. The doctor asked Kinan to sleep first. There will be a nurse who will help him give ASI.
Not long after, the entourage of the old men finally came as well. Hanif chose to back off and sit on the sofa. Of course the man could not be separated from the nagging Mama Aida and Mama Aisyah. Both of them blamed Hanif for acting at will.
Even to the point of not giving news. Though all of them are also requests Kinan who does not want to trouble the parents. They have enough with everyday thinking problems. Do not be bothered with his condition, which is actually fine.
"Now where is your son? Why isn't it here?" mama Aida asked while looking around.
"Now it's still under the doctor's eye, Ma. So placed in the baby's room, tomorrow can only be brought here. Later there will also be nurses who come by bringing baby here, to help me give ASI," replied Kinan. Actually, he also felt sorry for the husband, who was blamed continuously.
"Where is the room? Mama wants to see."
"There's at the end, Ma, but you can't go in, you can only see from the window" replied Hanif who again got a scolding.
"It's all because of you! Just try you say the same Mama from earlier, surely Mama can also see your granddaughter. If it's like this, you can only see it from afar," grumbled Mama Aida who then came out of the room, followed by everything.
Hanif could only let out a rough sigh, upon seeing both his parents and in-laws coming out of the room. Kinan smiled at the frustrated husband.
