ANTIQUE NURSE
Bonchap: The Most Beautiful Gift

A couple enters the hospital's IGD. A nurse brought a wheelchair to her sick wife. Her husband helped her sit in a wheelchair and then pushed her into the elevator. They will head to the fifth floor, the place where the maternity room is located.

The arrival of the two was immediately welcomed by Santi's doctor. The couple who were Rayi and Anfa went into the delivery room. A midwife who helps Dr. Santi immediately checks Rayi's condition.

“It's time, doc.”

“Come prepare the equipment. Ma'am Rayi get ready yes, sir here just accompany his wife.”

“Iya doc.”

The doctor and midwife immediately prepared the equipment. Rayi appears several times to pull and exhale in order to reduce the pain that afflicted him. Anfa also continued to give instructions to his wife, she was breathing like a pregnant woman who was about to give birth.

Outside the room, Rahma and Teddy have just arrived. Shortly after, the children and their daughter-in-law. Everyone sat in the waiting room. Abi continues to be by his wife's side, who is now four months pregnant. Sekar and Nadia did not go to the hospital, they waited for good news at home while looking after the children.

Astuti, who received news from Rahma, rushed to the hospital with her husband and brother. His heart pounded, impatient to welcome the birth of his first granddaughter who is female.

“Ehhhmmmmm.”.

Rayi started straining when the midwife gave her instructions. Anfa faithfully stood by her side. His hand tightly grasped the hand of Rayi who was struggling to give birth to her child.

Rayi's body drooped, the woman tried to gather her energy to remove the child from her womb. Anfa kept encouraging him. After taking a swipe he pushed back.

“Ehhhmmmm.. huf... huf... huf..... ehhmmmmm..”.

“Pull breath first, ma'am.. exhale slowly,” said the midwife.

“Ehhhmmmm.. huf.... huf.....”.

“His head has started to look ma'am. Come spirit.”

Rayi again spread her head, her strength was drained after almost forty minutes of struggling to remove the fetus in her stomach. He looked towards the husband. Anfa rubbed the sweat that soaked his wife's forehead.

“Capek pi.”

“Come on, mimi can definitely. Just make it strong, now it should also be strong dong.”

“Pipiiiiiiiii..”

“Iya mimi peri.”

“Pipi nyebelin.. instead of helping even make sprains.”

“Bantuin? Kan nggauh also, if cheek ngeden, later that came out even from behind.”

Doctors, midwives and nurses who were helping labor could not help his smile to see the debate unfaithful husband and wife. Anfa deliberately seduces his wife in order to divert the pain and increase the spirit. Usually Rayi energy will be greater if you are upset or angry.

“Pipe tuh.”

Rayi's speech stopped when she felt contractions again. The midwife gives instructions for the push. With the remnants of his strength, Rayi strained, but still did not succeed. He paused for a moment, took a deep breath then went back to straining with all his might.

“Oeeeeek.. oeeeeek.

The sound of crying baby instantly sounded when Rayi managed to get the baby out of her stomach. His body lay lunglai. It could not be described how Anfa felt at this moment. He continued to kiss the top of the head, forehead and cheeks of the wife while saying thanks.

☘️☘️☘️

Rayi's room was filled with visitors consisting of family and friends. Astuti did not stop looking at her grandson's beautiful face. It feels happy that Rayi can immediately get children in a fast time. Unlike him who had to wait until ten new years can only get a baby.

“You have a name ready for your child?” ask Astuti.

“Already ma. Her name is Hanna Batari Wisdom.”

“Hanna..beautiful name, as beautiful as her face.”.

Rahma stood up from her seat and approached Astuti. He also looked at the tiny baby weighing 3.2 kg without blinking. The two women were able to interact well. No more insinuations or spicy words Rahma intended for his besannya.

“Anfaaahhh.. Rayiiihhh. syelaamaathh yaaahhh.”

Syakira's voice congratulated her when she had just arrived with her husband. Seeing the arrival of Syakira, Rahayu's face immediately stiffened. He hurriedly searched for the inhaler from inside his bag. Vishnu chose to leave the room. The man could not hear the voice of men**sah Syakira.

“Still Yes Syaki,” replied Rayi.

“Radix where?”

“Radix also again waiting for Nabila lahiran.”

“Oh yes, where? Here too?”

“Iya. They just got in.”

“Yes feel twins yes later our children are the same as Radix children,” said Rayi.

“Iya twin different father same mother,” Gurit chuckles.

“Pipi.. I want to drink dong, haus.”

“Oath yes, I am still tickled by your calls, cheeks, mimi,” chirps Gurit.

“Rayi tuh ngefans very same mimi peri, so want to be called mimi,” replied Anfa sekennya who was immediately replied to the young mother's plot.

“Mimiiihhh periiihh h tuuuhh shiahh siiihhh?”

“Ngga to kepo, The. There is no benefit also tau mimi peri,” Gurit chuckles.

“You... can diem nda? My breath as soon as you talk ngik..” exclaimed Rahayu at Syakira upset.

Abi, Juna and Cakra went straight out of the room. As soon as they got outside the room, their laughter just broke out inviting the gazes of the nurses who were gathering at the nurse's desk.

☘️☘️☘️

Radix looked at the baby boy in his arms. His eyes stared unblinkingly at the face of the child who was sound asleep. Her feelings were uncertain, whether she should be happy or sad about the birth of her child. A pat on the shoulder surprised him.

“When you want to meet you.”

“Iya ma.”

Radix handed his son into the hands of the in-laws, then began walking towards the wife's ward. The steps were heavy to get there. As hard as he could try to strengthen himself. After taking a deep breath, he opened the room door. Seems his beloved wife is lying weakly on the bed.

The man stepped closer to the bed then pulled the chair beside the bed. With my eyes, Nabila looked at her husband's sad face. His hand moved rubbing Radix's jaw.

“Which son of ours?”

“Lagi sama mama.”

“You temenin me yes. Don't go anywhere.”

“Iya darling.”

“Sleeping here.”

Radix obeyed his wife's will. He climbed into the bed and laid himself on the side of his wife. Nabila hugged Radix's waist while burying her face into her husband's chest. Radix rubbed Nabila's back slowly. The sadness immediately hit him. I don't feel like I have to part with my wife.

After struggling to give birth to her child, the doctor said Nabila's condition dropped due to heavy blood loss. Actually the problem already exists in the early pregnancy of the woman. Because of the disease he suffered, Nabila risked to get pregnant. Doctors have already said the worst possibility is if the woman defends her fetus.

Without discussing with Radix, Nabila decided to maintain her pregnancy and hide her condition. It is difficult for the woman to keep her womb until entering the time of birth. Doctors say it is less likely that Nabila will survive because his physical condition is declining. His vital organs are also weakening. It was only a miracle that made the woman survive until now.

“You've got a name for our son?”

“It's been a pity,” Radix sounds raucous.

“Who?”

“Irvin.. Irvin Mahaprana.”

“Hmm..good name. I liked. Dix...”

“What?”

“Please say a good thing about me to Irvin later. Tell him I love him very much. Sorry for not being able to see her grow up. Sorry also can not accompany you anymore.”

No response from Radix. Only the man's back seemed to shake. His embrace in the wife's body grew stronger as her cries began to break. Even Nabila could not hold back his tears. Her decision to maintain and give birth to a child is normally done for the sake of her beloved husband. He wanted to leave fond memories for Radix before returning to the creator.

“Sorry... sorryin me..”.

When Nabila could not continue her words, her cries also broke just like that. The couple hugged tightly with tears unceasingly flowing from their eyes. Nabila's mother and Radix's mother could only look at them from behind the door. They are no less sad to see the situation of their children.

“I'm sincere if you want to marry again. Irvin must have a mother who can take care of and love him wholeheartedly.”

“I don't want another woman. I just want to be with you.”

“But my time with you is almost up. You should be able to let me go with sincerity.”

Radix parsed his embrace and then wiped away the tears that soaked his wife's pale face. Slowly he brought his face closer and kissed Nabila's lips that were no longer reddish. Lips that always look reddish now look pias.

“I love you. Thank you for being present in my life. Please take care and take good care of our children. I trust you.”

“Bil.aa.”.

“I forgive all my mistakes. I did you a lot of wrong,” Radix shook his head.

“I've forgiven you. I love you When.”

“Ultens me..”

“Do not leave me..”

“Ultens me.”

“I love you.”

“Ultens me..”

Radix looked at Nabila, the woman looking expectantly at him while still trying to smile. Radix cried again, but he was also unable to resist the power of the Divine who held the whole life of his being. With a heavy heart, he nodded his head.

“Thank you dear. Please tell my mom and dad Nay that I love them so much. Tell mom and dad I'm lucky to be their daughter-in-law. Kiss me for Irvin, tell me I love him so much. Thank you for being my wingless angel all along. Please guide me.”

Radix could say nothing but sobs that kept coming out of his mouth. The entire family who had seen from the outside immediately went inside. Nabila's father came forward and whispered God's words to help his daughter go. While Radix can only be silent while looking at his wife.

With stammering and weak voice, Nabila followed her father's direction. After that his eyes closed and his hands drooped. The monitor that shows vital signs began to sound indicating the owner of the body is no longer alive.

“Innalillahi wa inna ilaihi rojiun,” said Nabila's father with a vibrating voice.

“Bilaaaa!!!”

Radix shouted while hugging Nabila's body that had been stiff, her cries broke instantly. The man continued to hug Nabila's body, as if he was not willing to be abandoned by his beloved wife. Parents can only look on the grave, in the midst of the happiness of obtaining a grandchild, they must also let go of the child.

☘️☘️☘️

Radix stood in front of the navel that was still wet. His eyes stared pushyly at the gravestone that read the name of his beloved wife. He still does not believe, his wife who he married not even two years is gone forever.

She continued to be in the arms of her husband. The crying still could not stop. Nabila's sudden departure was so shocking. Similarly with Miss, who was shocked by the news of Nabila's departure. Kevin took Miss away before the funeral was over because the wife suddenly fainted.

Gurit can only stand glued next to his best friend. How much he entertained would not be able to dispel the grief Radix felt. Nabila's father approached her son-in-law and then grabbed her shoulder.

“You should take it. Nabila was calm there. You still have responsibilities. Irvin needs you, he's lost his mother. Don't let him also lose his father because you continue to grieve.”

“Iya pa.”

“Papa believes you are strong against all this. There are we who will always help you.”

“Bener bro, I'm the same others will also always be there for you. Pity Irvin if you long grieve. She is the most beautiful gift from Nabila to lo.”

Radix didn't say a word. But in his heart justifies all the words of his friend. Irvin is the most beautiful gift in his life. He was present through the long struggle Nabila. Radix promises to be a father and mother for the good of his son.

☘️☘️☘️

A year has passed since Nabila's departure. Radix still remains with his solitude. Mama, her sisters are also Naysila, Nabila's sister took turns to help take care of her child. Irvin is getting bigger now. A week ago, he had just had his first birthday. Sekar also misses frequent visits his best friend's son. As much as possible they try to keep Irvin from losing his mother's affection.

This afternoon, Sekar invites his friends to gather at his cafe subscription. Lately they rarely meet and gather because of their respective activities. Sekar came first, followed by Miss who came with her second child who was again a male. Before long Gurit and Radix arrived, they immediately joined the two young mothers.

“Anfa when to go home?” ask Gurit while sitting in a chair.

“Still another year he's there,” replied Sekar.

“How is the hot news of our widower?” longing Goda.

“Wiihh.. crazy, his fans are a lot in the office. Almost every day there is a greeting with him. From starting girls, widows to grannies hahaha.”

Miss and Sekar also laughed at Gurit's words which were believed to be half of it must be his boasting. Radix only smiled faintly, with no intention of retaliating. Since Nabila's departure, the man has been a little quiet.

“Come dong Dix, cheer up. I lost my old friend. I miss the cheerful Radix, the silly,” exclaimed Sekar.

“Iya Dix's.. Nabila must be sad to see you rich gini. You should be able to move on. Marry again, you are young. Irvin needs mom figure,” timpal Miss.

“Therefore I again dizzy,” finally Radix open the voice as well.

“Pusing why?”

“Nyokap with my in-laws to get married again. They even found the candidate.”

“Nah really. I agree with them. Btw who's the candidate? We-we know no?” cecar Sekar's.

Radix did not immediately answer him, he took a deep breath and exhaled slowly. He began to tell about the plans of his parents and in-laws who wanted to marry himself to Naysila, the sister of Nabila. No one loved Irvin more than Naysila.

Naysila who is two years from Nabila is very fond of Irvin. Even he put off working to be able to take care of Irvin. He thinks Irvin needs it now. Later when her nephew was two years old, the girl would focus on working.

“Agree.. I agree,” Sekar said while plucking his finger.

“Gue also agrees. No girl is more appropriate to be your wife than Naysila.”

“But she is Nabila gaaeess.”

“So what it is. There is no harm in getting off the bed. What matters is that he loves Irvin. About your feelings I am sure will grow over time.”

“Jiaaaahhhh wise really now lo, Rit.”

“Weh yes dong. I'm so hot daddy.”

“PRETT!!” sekar and Rindu together.

“Turutin deh advice parents ama in-law lo. For the sake of Irvin and for the welfare of adek lo also.”

“My add?” Radix looked puzzledly towards Gurit.

“Hooh.. adek lo the tuh,” Gurit pointed towards the bottom Radix.

“Bangk* lo!!”

“Hahahaha..”

Laughter Gurit and the others broke. Radix also no doubt smile. This friend is always Istiqomah with jokes that lead to perversion. But Radix is lucky to have a friend like Gurit who has always been able to make him smile since Nabila's departure. He was also moved by Miss Sekar's attention to her as well as Irvin.

“But inget Dix, if you marry again. See first the weather forecast, do not get the recipe for rainstorm again huahahaha.” Gurit held her stomach.

“Pastiin is also a healthy guardian in order not to be exposed to mulu ads,” exclaimed Sekar.

“What's Ad Se?” ask Gurit.

“Medicine laxative hahaha,” connect Miss.

Laughter was heard from all four. Radix shrank the corners of his eyes that were slightly watery from not stopping laughing. Behind his laughter, he also thought about what his companions had said. It seemed like he was going to consider his parents-in-law's proposal to marry Naysila.
