THE STRUGGLE OF A WIDOW

PROTECTIVE ATTITUDE

After 30 minutes passed, Tristan just finished taking care of the administration as well as the treatment room for Susi.

Tristan, who still could not believe what he heard from Retno's explanation, sat pensively on a bench in the corner of the hospital corridor not far from the administration room.

When Tristan accidentally threw his eyes to the left, Susi was being pushed by one of the nurses to the obgyn room using a wheelchair.

Tristan hurriedly followed with hasty footsteps.

Arriving in front of the entrance, Susi saw Tristan had been behind the nurse who pushed her wheelchair through the reflection of the glass door.

Susi looked back in panic.

"Playing here..?" Susi asked slightly raising her voice.

Sister and Tristan were equally surprised to hear Susi's shrill voice.

"You're not my husband, so why here.." Said again.

Having said that, Tristan got upset.

"I'm not your husband.. But I've taken care of you here.. So I don't care if you agree or not I'm here. You owe me this time.." Tristan said with great emphasis.

Tristan didn't really mean to say it all. But he was forced to say that Susi no longer dared to expel him.

"What does he really want..? He's just a new stranger who's always been the same as me.. " Susi's Monologue in the heart.

Seeing Susi's silence, Tristan takes over the wheelchair from the nurse and pushes her into the room quietly.

Susi, who was upset, was forced to stay silent because she insisted that Tristan would not care about her rejection.

"Sorry, please excuse me for a moment, let the patient be examined first.." The nurse asked Tristan who was standing next to Susi.

Making the sister not free to do her job.

Tristan who saw Susi's stomach shirt in the window and showed her smooth stomach, suddenly turned her face in any direction.

While Susi who was also surprised by the suater without permission revealed her clothes suddenly looked towards Tristan.

Susi breathed a sigh of relief seeing Tristan turn her face to avoid her sight.

After finishing applying the gel on the stomach Susi by the nurse, Retno doctor began his examination by attaching an ultrasound device to the surface of the lower abdomen Susi.

After a few minutes the Retno doctor observed the monitor screen in front of him, the examination was finally completed.

"Okey is done.." Retno doctor smiled

"It's a shame we stopped by for a while to the beautiful pelita hospital.. Let's check your content first to mama.. Last night, your mom said you had complained about the cramps.." Rayan stroked Ayana's head.

"Why aren't you here..? Let's go straight home and rest.." Ayana.

"But I want my dear mother.. Let your mother know the condition of your womb directly.." Rayan.

"Mmmm it's ok what drive there and the prince again went home..? Rayan is sick again, dear.." Rengek Ayana because she was worried about her husband's condition.

Seeing her Husband busy exchanging messages with someone Ayana did not know, made Ayana feel neglected.

Rayan smiled sweetly looking at the face of his beautiful wife. His hand stretched out across the wife's arm.

"What a hell, baby.. I just have a normal fever.. The medicine I've been taking..?" Rayan's words convinced Ayana.

"Here, I'm strong.. Let's not go out into the night.." Rayan said pulling Ayanas hand slowly out of the hospital dispensary to the hospital where the mother worked.

"Mas, I'm the one driving.." Tawar Ayana after they were in the car park.

"Darling.." Seeing Rayan's flat face, Ayana relented and chose to get into the car beside the steering wheel.

Seeing Ayana sitting expressionlessly, Rayan stroked her head. Rayan knew his wife like that no other because she was worried about her condition.

"So you've been married..? Or are you still the wife of someone..?" Tristan asked expressionlessly as they were already in Susi's treatment room.

Susi just kept her head down to hear the question from Tristan.

Susi who initially wanted to remain silent covered her life story on others, forced to explain who she was and what her current status was when she saw Tristan continue to be by her side until she prepared the treatment room in the VIP room for her.

Indeed Tristan returned from the city of Dad he continued with the mother, it was because asked by his uncle to help him in the company.

His uncle, who has a loan from Tristan's father, has been able to develop the company slowly to develop and start being able to compete in the business world with other great entrepreneurs.

It was from there that Tristan began to have a decent life. And from the life that began to deserve it was also his mother again attacked Ayana at that time so as not to connect with her son again.

Susi looked at Tristan's face. To be honest, he has not been able to open up his identity.

Seeing such facial features, Tristan realized that Susi did not want her privacy forced.

"It's okay.. I'll wait until you're ready for the story.. It's late at night, you're now a wife.. I'll go home first.." Tristan said as he stood up to get out of Susi's nursery.

Until when the door is opened and closed again, Susi Masij in the unmoved position.

"Our first yes ma.. Assalamualaikum.."

Arriving in the hospital lobby, Ayana accidentally sees Tristan who just got out of the hospital to the parking lot.

I want it to feel Ayana approaching her best friend but in her speech.

"Tristan drove the car..? Whose car is that..? What exactly is he doing in this hospital..? Who's he wading into..?" Monologue Ayana looks at Tristan's car which is no longer visible.

"Darling..? Ko bengong..? Who's that in the car..?" Rayan asked to look at Ayana, who had been staring at Tristan's car, which was out of the parking lot until it disappeared from their sight.
