Beginning of Forced Marriage
BDP. Part 47's
I'm sorry I couldn't pick you up to come home, I have things to take care of.
That was the message from Arkan to Nayna this afternoon, after reading the message, the pregnant woman who was sitting on her back in the hospital bed, could only sigh deeply.
Yes, it's okay Om, hopefully Om's business goes well.
Fill in the reply that Nayna sent to Arkan, before he finally saved his phone to a small bag that will be attached to his shoulder.
"Can't you pick you up?" ask Winda who can see the uninspired look of his son's face.
"No Ma, Om Arkan said there was business" said Nayna to put a smile on her mother.
"Wouldn't your husband come here for a minute to pick you up, then he could go back to work" said Ferdi, who was not happy after hearing Nayna's words.
"Om Arkan, there's a job he can't leave Pa, if Papa and Mama can't anterin me, let me just take a taxi home" Nayna told her papa.
"It can't be, only your husband should be more attentive, after what happened to you. He's acting like he doesn't think the child in your womb is his only child!" cerca Ferdi who does not care about the delicacy of his wife.
Meanwhile Nayna clenched her hands with her head bowed to her stomach.
This was indeed not the son of Om Arkan, so it was only natural that he did not care about him either. Inner Nayna with a sense of tightness present in her chest.
For some reason, she felt sad about what her father said, plus Arkan's seemingly indifferent attitude to her, during her three-night hospital stay, the man never even came.
Though he deliberately asked his parents to come home, hoping Arkan would come to meet and accompany him so that they could spend more time.
"Had, don't listen to your Papa's talk, let's just go home now," said Winda, making Nayna start to lift her face.
"Yes come Ma" said Nayna again put a smile on her parents.
She did not want her parents to worry about her. Nayna began to get off the bed she walked with the help of her mother out of the room.
When he almost reached the hospital lobby, Nayna suddenly stopped him and wanted to go to the toilet first.
"Ma, Mum. Go first to his car, I'll go to the toilet first," said Nayna, making her parents' second steps also stopped and looked at him.
"" Why not just now, when in your room," said Winda.
"Now I want it to be Ma."
"Yes let Mama anterin."
"No need Ma, I can be alone, Mama and Papa first I won't be long anyway" Nayna refused to her mother.
"Alright, you be careful of the way." Vinda resignedly allowed Nayna to go alone.
"Yes, Ma." Nayna immediately walked towards the toilet which was not too far from there.
Because of the effects of pregnancy that is getting bigger, she also often goes back and forth to the bathroom to urinate. After finding the toilet he immediately fulfilled his wish.
A few minutes later, she was done with her toilet and soon returned to catch up with her parents who were waiting in the car.
The pregnant woman walked in light steps, towards the door of the hospital lobby, but her attention was distracted by an object that was able to make her stride just stopped.
"Om Arkan!" lirih Nayna with a whisper.
Didn't a few minutes ago the man said, if he can't pick her up because there's business, so this is the business he meant, delivering the child of the woman who always made Nayna not calm with her existence.
Arkan and Listi seemed busy with administrative affairs, not realizing his presence was only a few steps away from their position.
Seeing that, people who only look at a glance must think, if they are like a small family that looks harmonious and suitable in various aspects.
"Let's go directly to the pediatrician," said Listi with a worried look.
"Yes come," said Arkan accompanied by a light nod of the head.
Nayna sees only the interaction between the two men standing as a display, seeing Arkan who looks worried also with the child who is now in his arms.
The mummy felt that now he was an invisible creature, so that both Arkan and Listi, passed him by. Whether they were unaware of her whereabouts or the man who was currently her husband was deliberately acting as if he did not see her there.
Unconsciously his hand moved, holding his chest that felt tight instead of playing, as if struck by a large iron. With a step that felt drifting, he began to carry himself towards his parents' car.
It felt like he was meeting them right now, but what to say and do if he was already in front of them, did he have to scold them both, or he should curse Arkan for caring more about the child than the woman.
Nayna smiled wryly with eyes that seemed to be starting to heat up, what right he had to do all that, he did not have any right to it, because again and again he had to be slapped by reality, if the marriage between him and Arkan was only limited to status.
"Why do you feel uncomfortable anymore?" asked his unconscious mother who had now stood before him.
Because from that time walking while looking down, he did not realize, if there is a mother there, Nayna tried to smile at her mother, with a cautious mind, afraid that Winda or Ferdi saw Arkan earlier.
"It's okay Ma, I'm fine, come on Ma," said Nayna who did not dare to look at her mother for too long. He stepped back, heading to his parents' car.
"Why did you keep going long?" ask Winda who followed him up the car.
"So I mules, so all right." Nayna answered by looking to the side.
At least he could breathe a sigh of relief, because both of his parents, did not see Arkan there, because it was not a good thing if his parents saw the whereabouts of Arkan da Listi, let alone his papa.
"Old response" said Vinda, slowly the car driven by Ridwan began to leave the hospital area, Ferdi sat in the seat beside the steering wheel and Winda sat beside him, the back seat.
Nayna just kept quiet, staring down the road, her mind drifting on what she had just seen, the confidence in her heart was now getting stronger, if there was a special relationship between Arkan and Listi.
"You want to go home to your house, not to our house so that Mama can monitor you," said Winda made Nayna's attention diverted to her mother.
"No Ma, I'm just going home." Nayna shook her head at her mother's words.
"Well if that is so" said Vinda, after that she did not speak anymore.
Nayna who felt the notification on her phone immediately pulled the flat object out of her bag, she saw a message coming in.
I'm taking you home, I'm right behind you.
After looking at the contents of the message, he turned around and looked towards the back of his car, then his lips lifted, knowing that behind there was a car following him, it was Raffa's car.
