"Ben, what's wrong?" dea asked confusedly as Ben took off his seatbelt to corner the woman.
Success made Dea feel intimidated. The woman gulped a few times violently, the first time she found Ben like this.
"I'll understand that you don't appreciate me at all, but your parents, De? You really don't have a heart?" The stern question that Ben uttered in a cold tone managed to add to Dea's confusion doubled. When the wife was about to ask further about the meaning of the sentence, Ben had already given a warning with great emphasis, "Don't ... never discuss the child again!"
"B—Ben?" Dea called out in a stern voice. His face was slightly pale, occasionally gulping at the saliva roughly. "What do you mean?"
Ben took a deep breath, holding it for a few seconds before exhaling slowly. Feeling that the blob of anger he held for a full night was already coming out through the carbon dioxide, Ben had calmed down somewhat. He rested his back without forgetting to wear his seatbelt again. The car was back on track.
"You're dying for the news of the miscarriage right now" Ben said.
Instantly, it managed to make Dea not wart. The woman glanced to the right-left, considering whether this husband already knew everything or just spoke carelessly?
"I'm disappointed, De, to be honest. But more than that, I'm more fed up with you who have no guilt at all already giving empty hopes to your parents," Ben continued, while glancing at Dea who could only glare in fear. "Make the news of miscarriage as soon as possible, if possible today. Don't make them love those kids who don't exist. You can forget because you never care about marriage. But for people who care too much about the slightest thing about you .. This issue is serious because it involves feelings and expectations, De."
Dea was completely at a loss for words, even to respond even to body movements, she was very confused. Only occasionally opened his mouth about to utter a sentence, but then returned tightly shut as his courage evaporated.
"Bbn ...." In the end, Dea could only call out her husband's name very weakly.
"Your desire to benefit from pregnancy let me quit my job at your successful papa company. I stopped, before I even said anything, De. So, already. Don't make our family more disappointed" Ben continued. It is no longer as passionate or as stressful as before. A bit quiet, but still implies a great disappointment. "For you, it's just a trivial matter. Son doang. You don't even care, because having a child is as simple as adoption. But, make your family ... for me. The news of your pregnancy is not just a new human among us." The boy is Ben's only hope to move on. However, since the child is gone, the same thing will happen to him.
"I ...." Dea confusion reply. He can only look down at the maximum, seeing his fingers squeezing each other on the lap. "Not pregnant that's not what I want, Ben. I. .. I also want to have children. But how? I haven't been loved."
"By the way, you can just ask me to come out, De, no need to use this alesan," said Ben. Once again, he took a deep breath as his scales regrouped within his chest. "I accept Mr. Kahar's offer for you too. So, if you want me to step down, I'll step back."
"For me, how? From the beginning I never asked you to accept papa's offer, not even support you at all. How's the story you said for me?" This time, Dea had already begun to find her reason to speak in response to her husband's remarks.
"Since you said the standard criteria for men you like is Dion .. I'm confused about what to do, De. To avoid, I can't. I can only try to make .. equate my self-worth with that standard. But no matter where I try, I'm just Ben, not Dion or at least Elvan. I'm not the same as them at all."
"Bbn ...." Dea called out in a soft voice. He paused for a moment when confused about stringing the right sentence, so that the man in front of him was not hurt worse. "I'm ... I lied about the pregnancy so you don't work at papa's company, but seriously for whatever reason, I didn't lie at all about what I said at the cafe yesterday."
Ben didn't chim in or respond at all.
"I don't really care about the same standards now, because what you love is more than I need" Dea said. She gave a pause to each of her words, in order to be more attentive to the change in her husband's expression.
However, Ben still flinching.
"I almost never ride a motorcycle, because I hate dust. But because of you, I'm comfortable. I forgot that principle" Dea said, seriously. "The standard that I certainly used to be, it's fitting I'm still not aware of the needs of marriage. I'm the standard pathokin of hardworking entrepreneurs, because I see it, those bosses are cool. It's just cool, Ben. And now, after I got married, I realized that the husband who was always next to me, was much better than the word 'cool' itself. I can't imagine following the standards I set yesterday. Because of the 'cool' bosses like Dion or Elvan, they have a flaw that honestly makes me uncomfortable: their arrogance and cunning. You're the one who makes me comfortable with all your traits now even though it takes adaptation at the beginning of the marriage first."
Ben was still silent, but his expression was more muted this time. Dea is believed to be a sign that the man is starting to believe her sentence.
Dea clenched her hands firmly on the black toad pants she was wearing, venting an uncomfortable feeling within her.
...*...
Ben was just pecking at the kitchen doorway when Dion passed by carrying Dea's body in a sling. The man seemed not to care at all, while Dion was so serious about playing the role of a brother who was very afraid if something happened to his sister.
In fact, this is a scenario that the brothers made themselves.
Ben just looked at their departure, then turned to go back into the kitchen. However, his shoulder was intercepted strongly.
"Where are you going?" ask Afifah, who happened to have watched the scene behind Ben's back on his tiptoes. "Your wife fell in the shower, Ben! Holy hooch! She's pregnant! Miss Dea's pregnant, Ben! You're haunting here! Suck, slow! Anjir, it's really good to be one husband!"
Ben was about to interrupt, but he was already pushed by the woman.
While his other coworkers, gave similar directions.
"Lo's work we can do. There, follow Miss Dea!"
Finding that he was not given the opportunity to enter the kitchen, Ben could only take a deep breath. Then follow their advice. He said goodbye, then walked out of the restaurant.
Using an online motorcycle taxi, Ben follows Dea's departure with doubt in the depths of his heart. It is heartless to see the disappointment of a big family in the hospital later, but as a husband, Ben must do this role. It would be very suspicious if it was not done.
The man arrived at the hospital Dea had told him about. He looked for Dea's nursery, and moved there. The man had originally intended to run away, merely showing his worries. However, the desire is void to be fulfilled when in the middle of the road, Ben experienced a tremendous headache.
Even for normal walking, the man had difficulty. He held his head, and tried to focus his eyes on the path he was about to walk. However, all the objects in front of him were like they were moving. The floor has its own shadow. The surrounding sounds changed faintly, creating a long buzz in his ears. Triggering pain like being stabbed repeatedly in the head, making Ben's power stock reduced drastically.
The man fell limp on the floor. Creating a human crowd surrounding him that had already lost consciousness.
...*...
"Doctor Vivin is out, ma'am, sir. But no need to worry. There's Doctor Tia who's gonna check on me."
The sentence issued by the sister, managed to make Dea and Dion look at each other with bulging eyes. After the sister's departure, Dea immediately pulled her brother's arm in panic.
"Where now? The one who wants to help us is just Dr. Vivin. How, Mas? Can I get that other doctor to help us?" dea asked in a low whispering voice.
Dion was just about to reply, but the arrival of the doctor in question made him cancel the intention. Especially when Dion was asked out, and the appearance of Diana followed by Kahar, immediately made the two unable to act anything.
Dea remains indoors with nurse and doctor Tia. Slightly doubt—for keeping the secret of her false pregnancy—Dea intends to do cooperation here.
"Dok," Dea said as she tried to prevent the doctor's attempt to examine her stomach. Yet failed. He was getting nervous and confused when the doctor had set his eyes on Dea while listening to the sound of a stethoscope. "I'm actually ... not pregnant yet, Doc. I had to lie because ..my husband really wants to have children. I so planned all this, so that my husband would stop for a while to ask my son to me. Can the doctor help me? Just saying that I miscarried, Doc, in front of my family. Plis, Doc, I don't want to disappoint them with my lies. Pwp .... Please, Doc."
The woman with the white blazer was unmoved, not responding at all to Dea's remarks, and remained focused on every examination at hand.
"Dok," call Dea expectantly. "Print ...." He squeezed again, but there was no change in expression on the doctor's face. "I'll pay you anything, Doc."
Only then did the female doctor glance at her with a cynical look. Make Dea instantly fold lips inward.
Pestilent. That was all Dea could recapitulate in her heart, when convinced her efforts ended in vain. Blame her for following Ben, hastening this miscarriage, so the deal with Vivin's doctor went awry.
To back off, it's too late. Dea could only lie limp and resigned when the doctor continued all kinds of examinations until a few minutes later.
Dea immediately woke up after the doctor finished with his activities. He tidied up his clothes, while continuing to string the sentence of apology for his extended family later.
However, however Dea pleaded even prostrate later, he was very sure that their anger would be the same as Ben was this morning. Dea was not ready, so she did not dare to leave the gurney when her family was invited in to listen to the results of the examination.
While his two parents sat waiting for an answer, Dea and Dion looked at each other. They share their worries without talking to each other.
"Mother and Father don't have to worry" said Tia's doctor, who made Dea cramp strongly and sneered inwardly.
No need to worry about your work! Dea will be lectured non-stop by each of his family, plus bonus silence Ben somehow. Dea ... not ready.
"Bu Radea Dasha's village is fine" Dr. Tia continued.
