Just Just Marrying
Really not able
"My stomach hurts so much..." Isak Kyara in Gerry's arms.
Gerry carefully helps Kyara to lie back on top of the gurney. The doctor came in shortly followed by the nurse. Doctors began to re-examine Kyara's condition.
"The opening is complete. The baby is ready to be born." Doctor Say. The nurses began to help Kyara deliver.
"Gerry... I'm not strong anymore..." Kyara said with a voice so heavy. Her bones felt pulled together when the baby had started to force it out. It feels really painful.
"You must be strong for our child... Fight for her to be present in the world soon. Don't you want to raise him to adulthood. Please fight for him." Gerry said as he wiped the sweat grains on Kyara's temple. Gerry was also incessantly whispering words of encouragement to his wife. Gerry's tears just fall to see Kyara struggle to give birth to their baby.
Doctors began instructing Kyara to push when the baby's head was already visible.
"Akhs..." With all her might Kyara pushed to get the baby out.
Gerry also let his hand which is currently gripped tightly by the woman to channel her pain. Not even Gerry's hand escaped the bite of the wife. Gerry's body immediately squeezed when he heard the sound of a birth canal tear to make it easier for the baby to come out.
"Gerry... I'm not strong anymore..." Kyara's tears were flowing with extreme pain. "I really can't..."
"I beg you to fight... Pity him who has waited too long to see the beautiful world..." Gerry immediately kissed Kyara's forehead which made the woman's spirit rise again. Kyara also pushed back according to instructions from the doctor with the remnants of her strength.
Oek
Oek
"Congratulations Miss Kyara. Your baby is male. Healthy and nothing less. And he's also very handsome." The doctor smiled, showing the crying baby to Kyara.
Kyara smiled as she shed her tears looking at her baby for the first time. The pain she felt all along paid off already when she saw her baby born safely. Kyara's tears are not flowing. He really feels happy right now.
The nurses brought Kyara's baby to clean. While the doctor continued his work sewing the core part of Kyara that was torn during labor earlier. Kyara doesn't feel any pain anymore. The pain was not worth the happiness of seeing his son's face.
"Thank you for giving birth to her safely. You're a great woman..." Gerry held Kyara's hand.
Kyara was silent with tears. But the smile on the tip of his lips returned Gerry's words.
While outside the room, Grandpa Surya, Mama Riana, Papa Johan and Rania seemed to wait anxiously. They are constantly praying for the safety of Kyara and her baby during labor. Their faces looked tense waiting for the birth of the successor to the Bagaskara family. But the look of their tension faded when they heard the sound of baby crying from inside the room.
"Our grandson is born, Pah..." Mama Riana nodded at her husband.
"Alhamdulillah..." Mumam Rania gave thanks. Same with Grandpa Surya.
Before long the door of the room was open showing Gerry's face there.
