Young Single Mom's
Raden Volker
I still can not move much, at this time the pain of the former surgery is increasingly felt because the effects of the anesthetic have disappeared completely.
Mother and Aunt Nda always patiently take care of me and my baby. They take turns resting, always alert when I need something. In fact, to eat alone I can't do it alone. Making Mother and Aunt Nda have to take turns to bribe me with patience. They don't even care about the tiredness they feel.
"You've already got a name for Thole (Call for a Javanese boy) yet Ra?"
"Udah ma'am, do you want to give up your name?"
"Yes dong, give me the name Raden ya Ra!"
"Okay Ma'am, Raden Volker is good not to Buk?"
"It's good Ra. Raden Volker doesn't have a papa."
Raden Volker's. It means a Javanese nobleman who protects the people.
His birth as the son of a Javanese mother made him suitable to get the name Raden. While behind the name Volker which means to protect the people, there is a reason. His father was a state official who protected the people. But, in fact it is not so. Aryo, Raden's father leaves Ara pregnant with Raden for 3 months and runs away from her responsibilities. In fact, Aryo got married to coincide with the birth of his son.
He is more concerned with his profession which he said 'duty to protect the people' it. Protecting people? Haha, isn't it ridiculous to just hear the term? Admitting his flesh and blood alone would not, it was doubtful how he would maintain his profession.
That is the reason why I decided to name Volker which means protector of the people, the hope that my son will be able to be the one who can protect the people. Unlike his father who only disguised his profession to protect the people, but in fact not.

I was expected to stay in the hospital for 3 nights. Lucky every day I got a good service, coupled with the presence of Mother and Aunt Nda beside me. Every day there are 2 doctor visits.
"Come with a motion Mom! leaning to the left right slowly let the chips recover." That's what the doctor always says in every hour of his visit.
"If you've farted say yes Mom, then the infusion can be removed." The nurse who came with the doctor gave me the info.
"Good Mba."
I, who was still lying weak and unable to move much, just agreed with the words of the doctor and nurse every time they came to my room.
I have never been in a hospital in my life feeling very uncomfortable. This was my first experience feeling there was an infusion attached to my hand, not to mention that the catheter attached was also no less making me uncomfortable.
***
That night I was restless thinking about the cost during my labor which totals over 10 million. That much money to me is not a small amount. Not to mention the other costs, plus the need after that will certainly be a lot.
Although my family will help with the cost, but I can't take it for granted. Seeing how much they sacrificed for me, I was so grateful. Moreover, having to bear my skills, I really can't continue to burden them.
"Mom, Ara's car is sold only for its operating costs?" I tried to persuade Mom to sell my car. Although my butut car does not do much, but at least it can help the cost of my life. Right now, that's the only treasure I have.
"Not kid! I have money to pay for the operation." Mother still insisted on refusing. He did not have to see his son in distress.
"Ara please be with Mother. Ara also needs the rest of the money for Ara's needs with Ara's children later as long as Ara has not worked. Ara doesn't want to keep burdening Mom as long as she hasn't worked." She just kept quiet, like she was thinking about something. He knew the nature of his son who never wanted to be in a situation that made him uncomfortable and stubborn. For example, like when the Aryo family gave him an offer and he chose to keep raising his own child because he felt more comfortable. And when he lived in his parents' house with environmental conditions that made him uncomfortable and he chose to live outside the province.
Yeah, that's what Ara is like. At this time he would also be uncomfortable if the entire cost of delivery was borne by his family. Mother then came out leaving Ara in her room, it seemed like she wanted to consider Ara's request.
He still remembered how happy Ara was when he managed to buy the car with his hard work. Although not as good as his friends' cars, but at that time Ara looked very happy. Ara was comfortable buying a car with her own money rather than buying a nice car with her parents' money.
Shortly after, Aunt Nda came in with food after Mom came out.
"Where's Ra?" Judging from his words, it seems like Aunt Nda did not cross paths with Mother outside.
"Should get out Te, Te?"
"Yes?"
"What?" Aunt Nda who had memorized the expression of Ara who must have wanted it, seemed to ignore it. He was busy opening his food.
"Please persuade Ibuk."
"Make?" He still doesn't care about it.
"Sell my car, make me pay for my operating expenses the same as the rest of it for my living needs."
"Raaa?" Aunt Nda put down her food, she ruffled her waist and looked at Ara with an annoyed look.
"Please Te, I can take a Aunt anyway!" This time Ara really had high hopes for her aunt.
"Hemmmh, yaudah later Aunt try to say the same to Mom. But you eat first!" Aunt Nda finally gave up, she took a deep breath in restraining her anger.
***
Mother was sitting alone in the waiting chair which was located quite far from Ara's room. The place was quite quiet, Mother sat facing the window. He looked out, his mind was not lost.
"Yeahahoo!" Aunt Nda suddenly approached her, she screamed because she had gone around looking for her brother everywhere making Mother who was daydreaming surprised to hear his voice.
"Why is he left?"
"He was sleeping, he had eaten. Raden has also been brought down by the nurse."
"Oh." Mom nodded her head.
"Mba, Ara told me to say this to you." Aunt Nda said it just like that because she was sure that Mother must have understood her point.
"See Nda? now Ara is suffering. He had to sacrifice his life for the sake of that irresponsible man. Hmh! 2 Million to check it billed. Look tuh! 2 Million is nothing for his son's surgery costs." Mom folded her hands in front of her chest. He looks very upset.
"Already Mba. Take away from this incident." Aunt Nda rubbed Mom's shoulder to calm her down. He felt what his brother felt.
Seriate...
