To be the Third
Muhammad Alwi



Happy Reading😘😘


Ikbal was still waiting in front of the delivery room anxiously. He could not even sit, continued pacing back and forth there. 2 hours had Eve in there, but there was no sign of the birth completed.


Then Ikbal soon heard the sound of baby crying. '' Alhamdulillah, O Allah.'' Ikbal murmured while rubbing his hands to the face.


The nurse came out soon.


'' Sus, how are things, and her baby sus?'' ask Ikbal


'' Alhamdulillah sir. My wife and father survived! And, the boy sir.. Congratulations yes!'' the Sister thought Ikbal was Eve's husband.


There was a strange rustling feeling, when the nurse called Eve his wife. Ikbal felt a sense of happiness, when he heard that.


'' Yes Sus, thank you. Can I come in?''


'' Please, Sir.''


Ikbal enters with Eve still lying weakly in the gurney. Ikbal saw the baby in Eve's arms, then stroked her tiny cheeks.


'' Sorry, sir. The baby should be in the adzzanine first.'' said the doctor who was there.


'' Yes, doc.'' Ikbal replied.


Ikbal looked at Eve. '' How's Wa? Do you want me, or Adam? If you want Adam, I call.'' asked Ikbal for approval, because Adam is his father after all.


'' Just brother Ikbal!'' Answer Eve


Finally Ikbal took the baby, clutching her in a sling. And then pity her for the baby's ears.


Eve who saw it had no power to hold back her tears. She was sad when she saw Ikbal pitting her son. Adam should be doing that right now, but someone else is doing it.


Eve always imagined herself giving birth to a child accompanied by her husband. Clasping her hands, bracing herself as Eve struggled to get their child out.


' O God, that beautiful shadow is now extinct. I always wish I had given birth by my husband's side? But fate says something else? God, if my destiny is to be like this. So I ask you to strengthen me and my son in each of your trials. May Bang Adam also be happy, with his choices.' Inner Eve


'' Wa, why are you? How's crying?'' Ikbal asked when he saw Eve crying.


'' No papa kok Kak. I just dusk, can give birth safely said Eve while wiping away her tears.


'' Lying! You must be sad, right, because Adam is not here?'' guess Ikbal


Eve smiled faintly. '' This sister, a psychic kayak.'' Eve kekeh.


'' Darling for you mah, no papa.'' Ikbal's tease.


Eve smiled sweetly. For him the temptation of the ikbal, was common and Eve considered it an entertainment. Because Eve realized, Ikbal might like her.


'' Wa, are you still going to continue your divorce?'' Ikbal asked as he put the baby in a baby box.


'' Yes, brother, but I'm afraid?''


'' Afraid why?''


'' I'm afraid Brother. If Bang Adam, it slows down the process! He even denied all of her.'' explained Eve in a fearful tone.


'' You calm down! I've got evidence, which would incriminate Adam. And he can't dodge. So that the process will not alot.''


Eve shone when she heard that.


'' Is it serious?'' answered Nod by Ikbal.


'' Thank you, sister.'' said Eve.


'' Same same..''


'' Oh, yes, brother! thank you too, Brother was willing to help me earlier.''


'' Same same as. But I didn't expect Wa! Are you in surabaya? Deserve Big Brother around town but do not find you?'' ikbal.


'' Yes Brother, after my departure from the house of Bang Adam. I stayed at the hotel last night. And it was Nisa and me in the afternoon to this town, because there was Nisa's aunt and uncle here? And thank God, Nisa's family nerima us.'' explained Eve


'' Keep on, you live with her uncle and Aunt Nisa?''


Eve shakes. '' Only 2 nights, brother! After that, Nisa and I contracted. It just so happened that there was a rented house not far from her Aunt Nisa's house.''


'' Oh, so... What matters is that you are healthy! You know, Ummi and Abi are very worried about your situation. They keep looking for you Wa? You are difficult to contact.''


'' Yes, brother, I intentionally. I don't want to be bothered with Bang Adam. So I changed no deh.''


Eve nodded. '' It's Brother. I called and told them! Astagfirullah, they came here today brother? Where did my phone miss at home? They've reached the ballom huh?'' anxious Eve.


'' No, no need to worry! I called Umar first, said Ikbal and pulled out his phone. But just wanted to call, arrived to try the door of the room open.


'' Eveaa.


Ooeeeeeeekkk oeeeeeeekkk


Eve's baby cries as Nisa screams.


'' Oops, sorry.'' whispered Nisa while covering her mouth.


Eve hit the baby's ass slowly, to get back to soundness. Soon the baby went back to sleep. Then Eve asked Nisa to put her to bed in the Box.


Eve looks happy when she sees her family in front of her now. She immediately embraced Eve. '' How are you doing, son?'' mother asked while rubbing Eve's head.


'' Alhamdulillah, Eve good mom.''


'' Deck, you don't papa do you? I'm so worried about you!'' clearly Umar rubbed Eve's head


'' I'm not papa Brother. Good thing there was Brother Ikbal, so I came to help him?'' clearly Eve


Umar turned to look at Ikbal. And hugged her. '' Thanks, yes Bro! It is nolongin adek me.'' said Umar while patting Ikbal's shoulder.


'' Yes, same thing! Just relax..''


'' Wait, wait. How could Ikbal be there? Will we go to this city, not telling anyone?'' confused Nisa


'' Coincidentally, I have a job in Surabaya these few days. I had a meeting with a client this morning! And looking at the crowd, when I saw Eve, Ikbal explained


'' Ooohhhhh.


'' Oh, yes, my boy. What name do you want your child?'' ask Mom


'' Muhammad Alwi. Later called her Alwi...''


'' Why is that.'' Umar wondered.


'' Hehe, for I love the grandson of the prophet Muhammad..Alviv Aseggaf. So I named Alwi deh.'' replied Eve


'' You have a crush on him?'' ask Nisa


'' No Nis, just amazed by his personality and religion! I wish my son would be like him. In morality, religion too? And also, the penghapal al qur'an....''


'' Aamiin..'' said all in unison.


Then they chatted. Even the mother kept holding the baby Eve, looking very happy. Eve who saw the look of happiness on the face of the mother, immediately pensive when remembering the father.


' Well, if Dad were there now? Maybe Dad's gonna be just as happy as mom. Look Well, my granddaughter is very handsome.' Inner Eve


Ooeeeeekkk ooooeeekkkk


When the baby came crying, he seemed to be very thirsty. '' Son, it looks like your son is thirsty and hungry. You milkin first yes!'' ucao Mother handed the baby to Eve.


'' Yes, ma'am, but Brother Ikbal and Brother Umar came out first.'' replied Eve


'' Umar, Ikbal you guys come out first! Eve wants to give love to her child.'' explained Mother


2 The man came out of the room, and sat down in the waiting chair. Umar asked Ikbal.


''Bal, I want to hear about the Eve household! And when he caught Adam, '' asked Umar


Ikbal looked at the man. Then throw his breath out violently. Then Ikbal told me about Adam who went into cheating, without being spiced at all.


Umar clenched his hands, his jaws hardened with clashing teeth. His eyes highlighted sharply full of lightning anger that had been in the ubun ubun.


Ikbal who saw that, really understand if Umar must be angry with Adam. Which brother won't be angry when his sister gets hurt. Because Ikbal was in the same position as Umar.


'' I know you're angry, but for now it's quiet. Eve will also sue Adam.'' Ikbal explained


'' Yes, I agree with Eve's decision! And that's why I gave Eve to you? Because my Fealling says, if Eve will be hurt again.'' explained Umar.


Then Ikbal said goodbye to Umar, after talking. He had to check the supermarket again. Umar walked to the cafeteria to buy coffee. He needs to calm his mind.


Watch out for you, Dam. I'll beat you up, when we meet.


Seriate......
