Giving Birth to My Brother
87. Elin gave birth

Elin spent the night sobbing that she fell asleep in her new room. He does not know how to face tomorrow because from now on he can no longer meet with Ariel. In fact, he had once intended to leave Ariel's life. But apparently, it was so painful because he had to leave because he had been caught by his mother.

"Elin," call Maria the next day. He patted Elin's arm as he tried to wake his daughter.

"Mama" said Elin. He frowned and realized it was still a bit dark, maybe it was just dawn. He also tried to stand up. "Why, Ma?"

"When was the baby born?" ask Maria. He touched Elin's stomach. In front of him, Elin did not answer out of nervousness. "Mama's sorry if yesterday Mama was rude to you. But, Mama thinks this is best for you. Mom doesn't want you to be your sister's second wife. You deserve a better life."

It must be wrong, Elin thought. He knew what his mother was trying to say was that he was not worthy of Ariel and that Ariel had to achieve perfection in her life. But he is not a suitable candidate.

"HPLnya 2 more weeks, but now has often been fasted," said Elin.

"Let's call the doctor here, you'll be checked, so you'll be calm." Mary rubbed Elin's face gently. "You're a good and brave girl, you can definitely get through all this. Doesn't Ariel deserve to live well?"

Elin nodded. He did not want to argue with his mother. She just ... she wants to give birth smoothly without any pressure. He almost forgot, there was another life on his body. After a night he barely sleeps because his mind is full, he has to focus more and think about the baby.

"Will you come here if I give birth?" ask Elin.

"Yes. You take it easy, Ariel must be here to pick up the baby" Maria said.

Elin swallowed hard. It was a bit disappointing because Ariel had promised to accompany her while giving birth. He misses Ariel because he thinks about it. Usually, Ariel would accompany her for a walk in the back garden early in the morning after the dawn prayer, or accompany her morning gymnastics in the room.

"I want to pray first, Ma. I'm also laper. I want breakfast" said Elin.

"You just calm down. Mama will cook for you this morning" said Maria, smiling.

After breakfast, Maria presented some papers about universities in France. "You can go to school again after this. Gladis would love to see you. You stay with Mama tomorrow."

Elin read one by one from her mother. He nodded again even though he wasn't sure he wanted to leave. He kept it all on his room table. And when he stood up, he felt his stomach ache a little.

"Why you?" ask Maria.

"No mules, Ma" replied Elin.

"What is the birth forward?" mummy Maria. "You just sit down. The doctor will be here."

"It's just a false contraction, I'm not papa" Elin said. He wants to call Ariel. Unfortunately, Maria kept her phone.

***

For a few days, Elin was still in the house. Sometimes, he wished Ariel would show up, banging on the front door so hard that he could meet her, but alas, it was just wishful thinking. Perhaps true, Ariel will only come to pick up this baby, thought Elin.

Elin had just taken a morning shower when she felt her stomach hurt so much. He squeezed the door while breathing. A week before HPL. Will the baby see the world today?

"Oh, it's really sick," said Elin. He walked slowly to the door of his room. "Mama!"

Elin turned to her left right, but her mother was invisible. He waved from the top fence at Susi, the maid in the house. And Susi seems to understand Elin's code. Soon Mary ran up to the top.

"You sick?" ask Maria.

"Get in the room" said Maria. He was busy calling Fendi to get everything ready. "Hold, El. I called the doctor and the nurse."

"Well, Mama!" Elin bit her lip after whimpering. She looked at her mother when she was sitting in bed. "Mama .. I'd like to see Brother, plis."

Maria shook her head. "For the sake of you and Ariel, don't see each other again. You won't be able to part if it's like this. Sorry Mama."

Maria accompanied Elin who occasionally whimpered when her contract came. He was very upset and just paced back and forth and rubbed Elin's forehead.

"The contract is still rare, you hold it first" said Maria worriedly.

From the outside, Ariel had already observed the house. He didn't even go to work for a week because he wanted to know where his mother was taking Elin away. She also wanted to know when Elin gave birth. He had a strange dream since last night. He held a small baby who was so beautiful and very similar to Elin. So, he had a premonition that Luna was about to be born.

Ariel stared at the gate of her mother's rental house. He tried to enter several times, and during that time he also got eviction from the housekeeper. Now, Ariel's eyes widened when she saw the white car coming in. He clearly saw three women rush in. Is it doctors and nurses?

"Will Elin give birth?"

Ariel quickly got out of the car and ran to the gate that had not been closed. He sees the panic of the guard and he becomes convinced that the baby is about to be born.

"I want to get in! I want to see Elin" said Ariel as he mounted the horses in front of them. He didn't care if he had to fight, he just wanted to see Elin's situation now. He had promised that he would accompany Elin to give birth to their baby.

Meanwhile, in the room, the doctor had checked Elin's condition. "The opening is complete, ma'am. Please push according to my instructions" the doctor said.

Elin did what the doctor asked her to do, but the pain overcame her. She was repeatedly out of breath when straining until the baby did not come out. The doctor also installed an oxygen hose so that Elin could regulate his breathing more freely.

"Doctor, why so long? My granddaughter why wasn't she born?" maria asked in panic. On the one hand, he was worried if Elin was why, he was also anxious if he had to take Elin to the hospital.

"The baby's mother is not strong to push, I think .. You should be taken to the hospital alone," said the doctor.

"Elin, you can do it" said Maria, persuading Elin. He felt Elin squeezing his hand so strongly as he tried to push again.

"Mama ... sick .. I want Big Brother," said Elin languishing.

Fendi entered suddenly, he gave a report to Maria in a whisper that outside there was a commotion caused by Ariel.

"Send Ariel in. Choke." Maria looked at Elin expectantly. He couldn't bear it because Elin was in so much pain. Perhaps, if it was Ariel who accompanied Elin, the baby would come out immediately.

Before long, Ariel burst in. He looked at Elin who was struggling. As soon as he approached, he grabbed Elin's hand and kissed her forehead.

"Came ... My dear," whispered Ariel with tears on her cheeks. "You can, El. I'm right here."

"Silver .. sick," said Elin.

Ariel nodded. "I know, I know. Excuse me. Today ... we can see Luna. Come, El. You can."

Like getting strength, Elin tried to push again. The doctor gave him a cue and after twice straining with difficulty, a loud cry of the baby was heard.

"Elin!" isak Ariel's. He held onto Elin's body so tightly. He kissed Elin's forehead lingering because he felt so relieved.

However, the relief did not last long as Maria told one of the nurses. "Bring the baby out."
