Attempts to Contact Firhan Again
Prospective mothers will certainly feel happy to see the baby that is seen in her womb. However, there was sadness surrounding Ervita's heart. When she is happy to see a fetus that will grow every day in her womb, there is sadness because the child she is carrying now does not have a father.
When Midwife Sri explained fetal growth at the age of seven weeks, Ervita smiled bitterly. No husband, no father of the baby can see the growth of the fetus in his womb.
"The fetus is 7 weeks old yes Ma'am Vita .. when seen this is still small, the size of a cherry. At the age of 7 weeks this baby's brain develops rapidly, the skin is still a transparent membrane. Later along with the age, the baby will continue to grow," explained Bu Midwife Sri.
"Yes Ma'am" replied Ervita.
"Sama Mbak Vita is fairly low blood pressure well, so try to get enough rest, eat nutritious, and later Mother gives blood enhancer well," replied Midwife Sri.
Ervita nodded her head weakly. However, presumably to be able to enjoy healthy and high-nutrient foods should Ervita hold for a while. All that because the money that Ervita has is increasingly brushed aside. In fact, Ervita thought to start looking for a job, so that Ervita could survive and also save for the cost of delivering her baby later.
"There's still something you want to ask Vita?" ask the Midwife.
"No ma'am, I'm clear, '" she replied.
"Alright, this is the cost of the examination and the cure, Ms. Vita. May it be healthy always, next checkup next month. Remember enough rest and also eat foods that are high in nutrition, Ma'am," said the midwife again.
Seeing the examination and the medicine he had to redeem for Rp. 180,000, Ervita sighed slowly. "This cost is much cheaper than checking with an Obstetrician. Forgive Mom yes Dik .. can only check you to Midwife. Mother's prayer that Sister here is healthy always" he said in his heart.
After returning home, Ervita looked at the pink Mother and Child Health Book given from the Midwife, and saw a photo of the USG results, seen a small speck on the black photo paper. Ervita's hand moved and rubbed the results of the 2-Dimensional Ultrasound.
"Here you are at Baby. However, I am confident that you will continue to grow every day. Should I go back to Solo and try Nak? It's possible to see a photo of your USG, your Biological Father wants to take responsibility for you and also you get forgiveness from both parents."

The next day ...
Armed with the KIA book and his first USG photo, Ervita decided to go home to Solo. The woman chose to return to Solo by riding Prameks Train (Prambanan Ekpress) which connects Solo City with Jogjakarta City. After all, the previous experience of more than two hours of traveling by motorcycle made Ervita's stomach feel so painful when he arrived in Jogjakarta.
Ervita's goal now is not to go home, but to meet with Firhan. Yes, who knows Firhan's heart was moved after seeing the KIA Book he brought and a photo of his own baby ultrasound. Even Ervita had already devised a plan that she would go straight to her campus, and wait for Firhan there.
Once he arrived at the Faculty of Economic and Business Sciences, Ervita asked some friends about Firhan's whereabouts.
"Look, Firhan isn't?"
"Sorry, would you like to ask Firhan, don't you?"
Some students he asked, until finally Ervita saw the figure of Firhan who was in the faculty cafeteria. Without hesitation, Ervita approached and approached the man.
"Firhan," greeted Ervita with a heart that was raging with anxiety.
Seeing Ervita's arrival, Firhan looks reluctant. However, the man just kept quiet and did not respond to anything.
"Firhan, I want to talk, can we talk to each other for a minute?" ask Ervita.
"Talk here," Firhan replied.
Ervita looked around. In the faculty canteen, however, it was quite crowded. However, what else if Firhan only wanted to talk there. Although hesitant Ervita showed KIA Book and USG results that he got yesterday after checking.
"Firhan, this is a photo of your son, our son. She was already in my womb and she was 7 weeks old. She grew up here Firhan, don't you want to take responsibility for our son?" asked Ervita softly.
Firhan stared intently at Ervita. Really, the word responsibility is never on his dictionary. Being responsible and marrying Ervita is tantamount to ruining her future to become an auditor after graduating from college.
"At least, there's no need to take responsibility for me .. Take responsibility for our son only, Firhan. Do not let our children be born and have no pith" said Ervita.
Indeed, Ervita could not imagine the truth if pregnant out of wedlock and without a husband. Not only a disgrace, but imagining that his son will only pester on the mother's family is heartbreaking. Moreover, it is certain that people will assume that his son will be the result of adultery.
Oh my God, Ervita who tried to imagine it was so tight in the chest. He came and met Firhan not for himself, but for his son. The stain Ervita will carry to death, but even for her unborn child if it is true that she was born without a father, it is certain that the child will bear the reproach of being a child without piety.
