The presence of Kevin in the house makes Ardi a little forget his problems, both at the office and at home. Zahra keeps saying that if she is not a perfect wife, she even told Ardi to get married again.
Ardi had no idea what to do, all the ways he had done to persuade his wife not to discuss it again, but every time they wanted to chat together, both of them, Zahra was always talking about her not being able to give him offspring.
“Honey, when do you want to talk about it? Didn't I tell you, I don't want any more children. I just need you baby, don't you know that?”
Zahra drooped limp on the floor, she could not even support her fragile body anymore, “do not have to lie to me, I know you really want children, I know you really want children, but I can't give a child to Ardi,” she said in between her tears.
“I'm sure you can get pregnant dear, it's just that we haven't been given any trust for it.” Ardi tried to help his wife to stand up, and sat her down on the edge of the bed, “sayang, look at me,” his door while sitting crouching in front of Zahra.
Zahra looked into her husband's eyes. Ardi clasped his wife's hand and then kissed her, “all I need is you dear, not another. If we don't have any more children, I don't care about that, because what's important to me is that you're always there for me. The doctor will tell you, too, if you can have children, so you don't despair,”.
“But when, Brother. Kenzo's sister has a child now, but I.”.
“Darling, you still have Rasya and Kevin, they are my children, and that means they are also your children.”
Zahra then hugged her husband very tightly, “I love you, sister. I don't want you to leave me just because I can't give offspring to sister,” she said in between tears.
“I will never leave you, I promise.” Ardi let go of his embrace and then kissed his wife's forehead.
“Kak, there's something I want to talk to brother.”
Ardi stood up, he sat down next to his wife, “what is dear?” tanyanya.
“I spoke yesterday with Kak Kay, I asked her opinion about my body condition.and I also asked how I can get pregnant fast.”
Ardi scrunched his forehead, “why are you asking Kay the same, will not be a doctor?” tanyanya's confused.
“Yes, Sister.but Kak Kay now has two children, who knows what he said could be useful.”
“Then what did Kay say?”
“Kak Kay said maybe this is also because of the factor of fatigue, my body condition is declining, my mind is stressed, all of it can affect why I have not been pregnant.”
Ardi smiled, “ makes sense too anyway, then what are you going to do? I always persuade you not to think about all that, but you instead ngeyel,” his scolding.
Zahra pouted her lips, “I've thought of this, maybe this is the best, but I also want to ask my sister's opinion,” he said.
“What is it about?” ask Ardi curiously.
“I want to focus on the pregnancy program we've been doing lately, so I decided to stop working. I know my job has been very draining and also my mind, so I want to stop working,” said Zahra by keeping her smile.
Ardi clasped his wife's hand, “sayang, are you sure of your decision? Isn't being a doctor your dream all along?” tanyanya surprised.
Zahra smiled, “that was my dream for a long time, Sister, but I also cannot be selfish, especially now that I am married, I also want to immediately have a child from Ardi. To realize my desire, I can even give up anything,” he said.
“I will support whatever decision you make dear, if you want to work, I will not ban you, but if you want to stop working, I will also not forbid you to do that, because I just want you to be happy.”
Zahra smiled happily, “thank you yes, Brother. tomorrow I will talk to Brother Samuel,” he said.
Ardi nodded his head, then told his wife to sleep because time was getting late.
Ardi deliberately did not go to the office, because he wanted to take his wife to the hospital to take care of her resignation. When they reached the hospital, they headed straight to Samuel's room.
“Do I bother brother?” zahra asked and sat down in the chair in front of Samuel's desk. Ardi sat his body next to his wife.
Samuel shook his head, “you're not on leave, then why did you come here?” tanyanya.
“I want to resign from this hospital,” said Zahra.
Samuel's eyes were perfectly rounded, “what did you say? You're kidding me, right?” tanyanya surprised.
Zahra shook her head, “I'm serious, sister. I want to stop working, I want to focus on having children,” she said.
“But wasn't becoming a doctor your dream long ago?” samuel did not believe what he had just heard.
“That was my dream, sister, but now that I have another new dream, which is that I want to have children, I want to know what it's like to be a mother,” said Zahra by looking at her husband who is currently sitting next to her.
“But you can still get pregnant even though you keep working,” said Samuel as if not willing if Zahra had to give up her dream just to become a mother.
“I have also persuaded Zahra, but it seems his wish is round,” said Ardi.
“But, Ra...”
“I beg you, Brother. Allow me to stop, I want to focus more on taking care of your two children.” Zahra even clenched her palms together pleading.
Samuel let out a long sigh, “are you sure of your decision?” the question was again to make sure, he hoped Zahra would change her mind.
Zahra nodded her head, “I'm so sure,” she said with a smile on her face.
Samuel also finally nodded his head, “but if you want to go back to work at this hospital, then the door of this hospital will be wide open to welcome you,” he said.
“Thank you, Brother,” said Zahra pleased.
After saying everything to Samuel, Zahra and Ardi resigned, and they left Samuel's room. Samuel regretted Zahra's decision to stop working, even though Zahra was a very popular and talented doctor at the hospital.
Ardi and Zahra set foot in the car, they wanted to pick up Rasya, because it was time for Rasya to come home from school. On the way Ardi saw the look on his wife's face that looked very happy.
“Why can you be that happy?” ask her while continuing to focus looking ahead.
“Because I can focus more on the pregnant program that we are doing, I can also focus more on taking care of the house,” said Zahra with a smile on her face.
Ardi holds his wife's hand, “you don't have to take care of the house, because there is a aunt who will take care of everything. You better focus on your body condition, don't you want to get pregnant soon?” ask her and get a nod from Zahra.
Ardi looks very happy, finally he can see again the sweet smile of his wife, ‘hopefully there will be no more sadness in your eyes dear,’ murmured in heart.
