THERE IS AN INJURED HEART

The sound of the tiny baby crying sounded very loud. Nara and Septian endlessly gave thanks. Waves of happiness seemed to hit them in tubes. Finally after the struggle, they feel the happiness of being parents.

But it was different with a woman who was checking and cleaning the tiny baby. His heart is throbbing pain. He smiled looking at the handsome baby, a bitter smile that expressed his current feelings.

This is not the first, Nurul has many times helped people give birth. And every time he looked at the newborn, he felt the happiness of his parents. But not this time, staring at the face of the baby who was very similar to the former, made her heart like squeezed into something, tight.

He's very handsome, like you Sep, inwardly Nurul.

"Law... " Nara grimaced as Ms. Linda sewed hers. It seems to hurt a lot. He thought that after his son came out, he would no longer feel pain, but still had to feel the pain of being stitched.

"Hold a minute." Said Ms. Linda while continuing to do her job.

"Uh.. Mommy's sick." Nara gripped Septian's hand while grimacing.

"It hurts a little, later if it's 40 days, guaranteed to be a virgin again." Entertain Ms. Linda. "Si Asep immediately smiled a smile tuh tuh said back to the virgin." Continue to tease the Septian.

"It can be mom." Septian Sahut.

"But don't forget about KB after 40 days. Ntar Asep play nyosor aja, immediately become his sister."

Nara and Septian immediately laughed. They laughed like no burden. Very much inversely proportional to what Nurul felt at this time.

Nurul Buru hurriedly removed that feeling from his heart. He took a breath and threw it away slowly. He must look professional. Do not let Nara especially Septian know his inner turmoil at this time.

"Everything is normal, weight is 2.5kg and length is 49." Nurul just finished checking.

Septian and Nara breathed a sigh of relief. They had worried because their child was born too early, still 37w more a few days. But thankfully, everything was normal even though she weighed only a little.

Nurul holds the baby to show Nara. He could see the twinkle of happiness on the new mother's face.

"Your baby is very handsome Ra."

"Of course, because his father is so handsome." Sahut Nara while looking at Septian and smiling.

"It's time for IMD." Nurul.

"What's that?" Septian as a new father did not understand that term.

"Initiation of early breastfeeding. It's time for baby to learn how to sniff." Nurul Terang.

"Ooo... " Septian ber o ria. Nara immediately undressed. Nara understood that term. She read a lot of articles about getting pregnant and giving birth this late.

Nurul put the little baby who was still red in Nara's chest. The baby immediately moved in search of the source of his life. And once he got it, as he understood, he sucked immediately.

"God." Nara was amazed to see it. The baby's face is very similar to Septian. And her tiny mouth looked so cute when she hit meenyu.

"Pinter is really debaying." Said Ms. Linda who was watching. "Kuak it if nen, surely cepet go up later bbnya."

"His life is out, right?" Septian asked curiously.

"It seems not yet, but it will also come out later. Keep breastfeeding." replied Ms. Linda.

Septian stroked his son's head. It was still like a dream to be a father. Like just yesterday she dragged Nara from the abortion clinic. But today, that tiny baby was already born into the world.

"That's very strong if nen." Said Septian whose eyes never separated from staring at the two people he loved.

"Year you. Like father like Son."

Septian immediately chuckled.

"Well, can his father not get part of the ration." Canda Septian rubbing his son's cheek.

"Our son is very handsome, like you. The happier I am, now surrounded by cogan."

"The one who feels the most beautiful." Ledek Septian while blinking lips.

Nurul's heart felt torn. Both of them seem to have forgotten their existence. No shame in indulging the romance that hurt his heart.

Ms. Linda came out to deliver this happy news to the Nara and Septian families. While they have not been allowed to enter so that Nara is more comfortable when IMD.

Bu Lastri seemed very enthusiastic considering this his first grandchild. Soon he grabbed the baby in the box into his carrier.

Mama Tiur was no less enthusiastic. But he still had to wait his turn when he wanted to carry.

"God, what a great granddaughter. It doesn't look like Sep, but it's exactly the same as you." Said Miss Lastri who was amazed by her grandson's face. It could be exactly with Septian.

"Yes Mom. I think it's just passing through Nara. There's nothing similar to him. He said that boys look like his mother. It's like all Septian." Mama Tiur commented.

"Waduh Ra, if it's like this, papa's handsome face will be nothing serious. Stop till you doang."

"Haha... " Papa Satrio's silliness was immediately greeted with everyone's crisp laughter.

"Whose handsome niece is namamya?" ask Sarah.

Nara and Septian looked at each other. They haven't thought about names at all.

"Just name Arjuno." Papa Satrio's advice.

"About his father's name Satrio, his grandson Arjuno Gitu? nara did not like it. Less current."

"But it's good that's Ra." Miss Lastri was supportive. "He will be as good and handsome as Arjuna. Waduh waduh, will be a knight who is hailed by my granddaughter later."

Septian chuckled at Nara's annoyed face. He knew his wife did not like the name that impressed the old man.

"Arjuno, called Juno. Cool, brother." Sarah was supportive.

"Let her father give her a name." Mama Tiur gave her advice. He could see the annoyance on Nara's face.

"The father only gave me advice. Be used alhamdulillah, neither papa." Papa Satrio.

"Later Nara and I will think of her name." Septian.

Since it was already midnight, mama Tiur and papa finally came home. So did mom, Sarah and Shaila. Septian is now the only one who accompanies Nara and their baby.

...******...

Oh why should I see you with her

Injured but not bleeding

Azizah maliciously even sang a piece of Arvian dwi's song titled teach me, when Nurul just entered the room.

Nurul immediately clucked and threw a rough breath. He knew Azizah had intentionally mocked him.

"Racid?" Zizah asked as she looked at Nurul who was sitting languidly by the side of the bed.

Nurul did not answer, he chose to raise his legs on the bed while leaning his back on the head of the bed.

"What body is tired?" Zizah is still getting stuck. Not only did he know how broken Nurul's heart was right now.

"Why do I have to be Zah? Of the many people, why should I help with Nara's delivery?" Nurul's eyes began to glaze over. Since then, he has been trying to be strong. But now, his defense broke down, he was crying.

Azizah felt bad. He felt guilty for spitting on Nurul without feeling. He thought Nurul wouldn't do this.

"I'm sorry, Rul." Azizah approached Nurul and hugged her best friend. "Gue thought, you've moved on from Asep."

"It's not that easy, Zah. Septian was my first love. He's the only person I hope to be my soul mate. It is the name that I keep every night. Me and Septian, once dreamed of walking together. But the road we take has a different purpose. He's just present, not destiny for me."

Azizah felt guilty. He could see the wounds on Nurul's eyes. The wound that Nurul tried to heal, but instead bled again today. And none of this would have happened if he hadn't forced Nurul to stay at his house tonight.

"I'm sorry, Rul. This is all because of me who makes lo Nginep here."

"It's not your fault, Zah. Maybe this has become God's decision. Let's just take the silver. It seems that God rebuked me in this way. Admonish me who still keeps the taste for men who have become the husband of other women. This feeling shouldn't still be in my heart. I don't think this is right, it's wrong. And God wants me to open my eyes wide, if Septian, is happy with his new family."

"Lo's a great woman. I'm sure God will send you the best soul mate."

"Amen.... "
