THE STRUGGLE OF A WIDOW

A STRUGGLE

"Oh, yes.. Thank you.." Said Rayan stammering because she realized from her daydream about his wife Ayana

"Mom, where's Mom now..?" Rayan asked frantically mixed with worry when she received news from her mother-in-law about Ayana.

"Mom is now in the hospital.. Your father is also here.. But Ayana's still in the delivery room.." Answer Lela's mom across there.

"Good ma'am.. I'll be home soon.. Please keep me informed mom..?" Rayan said ending her chatter and the in-laws.

Rayan rushed to the section chief for permission to go home first. Rayan tells Ayana's condition for the reason to go home. And all those involved in the humanitarian mission in the disaster-affected village understood and allowed him to go home.

"Bro, the spirit..? May his wife and baby be safe.. Heart on the road.. Remember there's a family waiting for your arrival.." Said Alfian classmate Rayan when he was in college, and now found back in the village.

"Yes bro.. Thanks yeah..? I'm leaving first, greetings to the others.. Assalamualaikum.." Rayan rushed out of the barracks to approach the ojek brother who was ready to deliver him to the terminal.

With a feeling of anxiety, Rayan feels impatient again to get to the hospital where his wife is struggling to risk their lives for their prospective baby.

While in the hospital, Miss Lela and Mr. Sultan were no less worried waiting for news from the doctor Retno from the delivery room. Both of them sat on the front bench of the room with their own feelings and thoughts. They pray for all good in their own way.

"Assynolajet.. Bye, Mother.. How's Ayana doing..?" Bu Lela and Mr. David reflexively stood to see Rayan standing in front of both of them with a face full of worry.

"Goddessalam.." Answer both at the same time.

"Thank God your child was born safe.. He is also healthy despite being born prematurely.. It's still in the baby's room.." Said Mr. Sultan patting Rayan's shoulder with a knotty smile.

"Ayana's still inside.. She was bleeding after the baby was born.. Mama you're still handling it, until now it's not out.." Continue bu Lela with a trembling tone.

Rayan took off the backpack on her shoulder and rushed to the door of the room where Ayana was struggling to live inside. Although Rayan is a doctor, but that does not mean he barged in even though his wife was critical inside. Rayan still follows the rules. He was not the doctor in charge of the hospital.

Now Rayan only realized what the reason for the mother when she asked him to pratek in the same place as him. Here's why. They can work together for their families.

"Yan, papa would like to talk for a second.. But to the mushola let us all wait for the magrib prayer there.." Mr. Sultan who saw Rayan was like a chicken lost its mother, gently invites the child to worship together so that the child is calm.

"I want to see my baby first.. Who is adzanin pah..?" Said Rayan approaching the Sultan and Bu Lela.

"The father of adzanin.. Your son is an understanding prince, son.. He was born quickly without having to make his mother linger long withholding pain.." Sultan said with a smile

Rayan was moved to hear the words of her father.

"Your son is very similar to Yuki.. Ayana's longing for Yuki will definitely be treated by the presence of your child.." Bu Lela cried sobbing in remembrance of Yuki who had passed away.

Rayan approached and hugged tightly bu Lela. Rayan continued to calm her mother-in-law attentively.

Somewhere, Susi, who has been busy working at the Queen's boutique since being recommended by Ayana, has been getting busy with her new activities for the past three months.

Ever since she worked in the boutique, her thoughts and feelings for Tristan have been forgotten. Busyness apparently makes Susi forget the sadness and disappointment that grows in her heart because of love.

While Tristan, months are busy with work in his family-owned company with his uncle with a year-end target. There was no time to relax like before.

In front of the special baby room, Rayan stared straight at her daydream.

His mind floated about Ayana the wife had fought for her son, really made Rayan's heart sliced to remember the struggle of Ayana's life as a widow. Whatever he did to his son Yuki, and how cruel the man who in the name of husband but with the heart to hurt his wife.
