Womb of Titipan

Farida's Coming.

"Spinal marrow transplantation is one method of treatment that is quite powerful and without side effects for a disease or certain medical conditions such as blood cancer or Leukemia, the disease that is now in the suffering of Dance," intan said as she and Sheryl talked together.

"Usually people who have a spinal cord match are members of the patient's own family" Intan continued.

"But Naina's half-brother, can it be?" ask Sheryl curious.

"Doctors will find out after the test, but the possibility is quite large, considering they are one-father siblings," replied Intan.

"Experts say if the spinal cord match will be greater between siblings than parents and children, the success ratio is 25% between a sibling and a bone marrow match between a parent and their child is only about 0.5." Dance explains more clearly.

"If forced to receive donor marrow that is not suitable, for example from parents to children, will pose risks and other problems that can endanger the patient's condition, such as, for example, the immune system will be disrupted to worsen the patient's condition because it will experience infections and other body function disorders" Intan continued.

Sheryl nodded in understanding.

"Usually after the spinal cord transplant procedure and it is successful then the patient's condition will gradually improve, the risk for relapse or recurrence of leukemia is believed to be very small for the patient."

"That means Dance will be completely healed?" ask Sheryl.

"We certainly hope so," replied Intan.

"What about the donor's fate? What about Naina's fate if she had donated her spinal cord to Dance?" ask Sheryl.

"The majority of spinal cord donors over 98.5% will recover within a few weeks, the remaining 2.4% of donors will experience serious complications due to anesthesia or nerve bone damage, or the muscles in their hip area."

"But it's very rare, until the percentage is small" Intan added.

"Is there a long-term risk?" sheryl asked dissatisfied with Intan's reply.

"Nothing at all because the amount of marrow donated is only about one liter. It's only a fraction of a person's total marrow so it won't weaken the body in a donor or even weaken his immune system because within a few weeks, the donor's spinal cord will naturally replace itself. Naina will be fine" Intan said to make Sheryl relieved.

"Thank God. I'm afraid Naina's gonna be okay."

"What I fear is that Naina refuses to be a donor" Intan said.

Sheryl saw her best friend.

"Cannot be. We know Naina, she's very kind, she's definitely going to help Tari who in fact is her own half-sister."

"yes too. But don't you wonder what really happened? How did her father Tari become Naina's real father?" ask Sheryl seriously.

"Maybe because of an illicit relationship" Intan replied surmisingly.

"It could have been like that, but I became sorry for Naina, all this time she was suffering in Panti, even though her father was a wealthy successful businessman," said Sherly.

"You're right. But I feel more sorry for him if it turns out that Mr. Vishnu is actually looking for Naina just to help Tari. But that's just my guess, hopefully not like that" Intan said.

Sheryl is silent at the words of her best friend, thinking that if in fact she also had such thoughts, Naina is only sought for the sake of healing Dance.

Next day.

Naina scatters around hugging Farida's mother who just got off the car, in her mother's arms Naina sobs.

"We go in first." Linda invited the two to come inside.

Arriving at the family room, Naina hugged her mother, Farida's mother who already knew what was happening from Ms. Winda, gently rubbed her daughter's back.

"What makes you sad? You should be happy to meet your father" Farida said with a smile.

Naina wiped her tears.

"Mothers. Tell me how can I stay at the Panti? Actually I never wanted to know, so I never once asked Mom. But this time I want to know everything. Mother was I given by my mother directly? Like Bayu, Ni'ma, Feri and many other Panti children who were delivered by his mother directly for various reasons," asked Naina curious.

"No Son. You're not the same as them. I found you at the Panti gate, someone left you there moments before I found you."

"How old was I then?"

"It's like two or three days after birth,"

Hearing Farida's reply made Naina sobbing, making Farida and Vinda feel sad, as well as Grandma who approached them.

"Why would my mother leave me there? Was I considered a burden to him so that he wouldn't take care of me his own biological son." Naina's getting sobbing.

"We don't know the real reason, maybe it's not like that, son. Don't make that conclusion." Winda hugged his son-in-law.

"But I heard for myself that my mother was only a second wife, or that maybe my father and mother were not married and I was just a child of infidelity."

"Naaina. Don't talk like that, son," Farida said quickly.

"How are you born, a child is still a pure and clean creature, no matter what his parents do, the child will not bear the sin of both." Farida's turn hugged Naina.

"What your mother said is true, son, you don't have to think about what your parents have done, no matter how you were born, you are still a child born holy." Winda rubbed his son-in-law's shoulder.

Naina wiped her tears.

"I'm sorry. I just feel inferior, I'm ashamed because of my parents' treatment, especially my mother who has become a third person."

"Don't think about it, no one thinks you're inferior, you're our dearest daughter-in-law. We all love you so much." Grandma said with a smile.

Everyone is smiling.

Next day.

Aaric and his two best friends had lunch together.

"How's your wife doing now?" ryan asked to see Aaric.

Aaric sighed.

"It seems like the arrival of Panti's mother yesterday who advised him made Naina start accepting Vishnu as her father, even she just called me asking permission to go to her father's house because Dahlia's mother picked him up."

Ryan and Dani looked at.

"Did she know if she's the sister of your ex-boyfriend's Dance?"

"of course. But he didn't talk much about it."

"You yourself? How do you feel now knowing that Dance is your sister-in-law?" ask Dani

Aaric smiled.

"Obviously. Our relationship is long over, everything will not make me uncomfortable or uncomfortable, my feelings have been fixed on Naina."

"Are you sure? Your feelings for Naina won't change no matter what?" ryan asked seriously.

"I'm sure."

"Good, maybe we should tell you now." Dani looked at Aaric's face seriously.

"Say what?" ask Aaric astonished.

Dani sees Ryan, then goes back to Aaric.

"Dance is very sick and only your wife can cure him."

"What?" ask Aaric in surprise.
