I'm his mother

"Why are you doing this, son? Is there no other way? Why bring another woman into your household?" lirih mama Wanda stared fixedly at her son's lethargic face.
Abra again sighed, then changed his sitting position to lesehan in front of his mother. Abra who was originally sitting crouching now changed his seat to cross-legged.
"Alma, she'll never be able to conceive Ma. That's why I'm looking for a surrogate mother so Mama can have grandchildren soon and I have children. I thought, Alma will accept and love my son later even if it was born from another woman, so I look for someone who is willing to get pregnant and carry a child for me. Until finally, I also did a contract marriage to present children and grandchildren to Mama, because all I thought at that time was Ma. Moreover, the condition of Mama who kept dropping made me have no other choice but to do a contract marriage with another woman so that I could have a child. A granddaughter that Mama so longed for," explained Abra with glassy eyes.
"Then, who's that woman? Are you sure she's a good woman? Are you sure that he won't demand anything someday?"
"His name is Namira Syahra Ma, a simple and hardworking woman. I know, Mama would think like this. But I'm sure, once Mama sees her and knows her, Mama will definitely change her mind just as much as I currently don't want to lose her and also Darren our son,"
"Why can you be so sure? Could he just use you and your son?"
"That must have happened if the woman was like Alma Ma. But not for Namira, as long as Mama knows. In the past, he even left his son when he had not seen how the child looked like. The child she conceived for 9 months, which she was willing to endure pain for hours for the sake of giving birth to the child. But Mam knows? What did she do after giving birth to Darren? he went straight away Ma, he just left because he wanted to carry out his obligations in accordance with the contents of the contract we had agreed. Over the years she also had to hide all these facts from her late mother, for many years also she had to endure longing for her son whom she could not meet just for following the contract of the deal. Mama can imagine, how suffered Namira all this time. But he never came to me Ma, he never demanded anything from me, he even swallowed all the bitterness of his life. Now, the woman is lying helplessly in the hospital due to Ma's gunshot wound. Even he was willing to lose his life to protect Darren from the people who intended to kill him." explained Abra with a trembling voice telling how Namira had sacrificed all this time.
Mama Wanda could only be speechless hearing all the explanations given by Abra at this time. All this was too shocking for him, but it had already happened. And right now, making things clear may be the best course.
Mama Wanda will make sure for herself, how the woman chosen by her child. The woman chosen by Abra to be a surrogate mother, in order for her to have offspring. The prospective heir of the Adhijaya corp empire.
"Where is the hospital?"
"Where is the hospital the woman is being treated at? Mama wants to meet her. Mama can I meet her?"
Abra was silent for a moment, trying to review the statement from Mama Wanda. Honestly, there was a fear that the mother would do something that would hurt Namira.
See how dear Mama Wanda used to be to Alma. It does not rule out the possibility that Mama Wanda will do things that might hurt Namira.
Until the word 'iya' was so difficult to say from the mouth of Abra to answer the question of the mother who wanted to meet Namira.
Looking at the strange gaze from her son, Mama Wanda could only sigh long and heavy before finally returning to continue her words.
"Calm down, don't worry like that. Mama just wants to see how the face of the woman who's given grandchildren to Mama,"
"But promise first. Mama's not gonna do anything that's gonna hurt her,"
"Oh my goodness, this boy, is possessive. Mama is a wicked witch what? How outrageous of you is Ham," his rickshaw hit Abra's sturdy shoulder.
