My soul mate

My soul mate
CHAPTER 160


Afternoon on an island surrounded by the ocean. A man plays with two toddlers who are over a year old. The three of them were playing in the sand in front of an inn.


"Dirga.. Deities.. Let's go home, kid, take a shower"


A woman came out of a house located right next to a health clinic for lodging guests. The woman called her two little sons who were playing with sand.


Hearing the sound of his parents, the man immediately carried his two sons to enter.


"Okay, your son smells of acem"


The woman took one of her twin sons.


"His father also asked to bathe his mother"


Giving up one of his sons, he kissed his wife's forehead.


"Bring three dads, son. Let mommy be with grandma for cooking"


"It's four mothers"


"That's what your father wants. Let's bathe the twins, mother help mom cook first"


The three men entered the bathroom.


There was a sound of water playing in the bathroom.


"The twins have had a bath?"


The old lady who was cleaning the fish turned her head when the young lady entered the kitchen.


"Together with his father ma'am, an hour was just finished. We can cook in peace"


The old woman and the young woman laughed together. There was happiness on their faces behind that simple two-story little house.


---------------------


Two and a half years ago..


"Captain, I'm pregnant. Can you hear me, captain? wake up, accompany me to take care of this boy"


The body that was lying down did not move at all. Then the body reacted to make my heart beat faster. The sudden reaction of Mandala's body unable to breathe caused me to faint and eventually find out about my pregnancy.


When I was treated for my fainting, Mandala was intubated by the doctor who treated him to keep the airways open so as not to occur again respiratory failure due to lack of oxygen.


I am happy with my pregnancy, but I am also sad because of the state of Mandala who is still in a coma.


"Good day mom. Sorry, I'm back to interrupting"


I was surprised by the voice of the man who suddenly appeared beside me. I remember this man who yesterday gave me the ownership papers of a house and lodging on an island.


"Sorry, what's your father's name?"


"I'm Ardi ma'am"


"Sir Ardi, is the inn operational?"


"Already ma'am, there is only recruitment of employees"


"Can Mr Ardi help me?"


"I'm ready to help mom. Mandala is a friend who always helps me"


"You just call me Ega, not mom"


Ardi laughing.


"Call me also Ardi if so, not father"


"alright. Ardi, I want to build a house for where we live. Is the land enough?"


"Enough if it's just a simple house. We're making it rise to the top"


"Please design. I want to move there to bring my kids later"


Ardi nodded.


"I see, how many rooms are needed?"


"For my elderly mother, for me and Mandala and for my son"


"What about the budget?"


"Adjust to your budget. Don't be expensive, don't lose money"


Ardi laughing.


"I get. I designed it first. After that I'll come back here. What about the inn?"


"I'm going to find someone who can manage it. Please announce to the local people there that the inn needs employees"


Again Ardi just nodded.


"I'm back in a week. I hope to meet the person who will manage the inn"


"All right, we'll see you in a week"


Ardi said goodbye to me. I kept the papers that Ardi gave me.


"Captain, did you hear that? The accommodation you have prepared for your retirement will be finished. I'll ask people to manage it. Once you realize, we'll stay there with our kids"


I held Mandala's hand. Again the hand did not respond. I cleaned Mandala's hands. Sorting it slowly so that it launches its blood circulation.


I was determined, conscious or unconscious of Mandala, that I would stay there, taking my son away from the city where his father and his mother were unhappy.


A week later Ardi came back. Ardi and I agreed on the design of the house and the budget that must be spent. I asked some relatives to sell the house that Mandala gave us when we got divorced. I used the money from the sale to build a house on the island.


I want to get away from the city.


I want to forget all the stories of my past and start a new one with my son.


For the inn, I called his sister Ayu to be the Manager until my family and I moved there. I asked Ardi to help his sister Ayu in the field during the preparations before the inn was actually opened.


---------


Today I am eight weeks old. I did a checkup on Dr. Mia, the obstetrician who used to take care of Sarah.


"Doctor Chintya.. Did you see him?"


"What's the matter, Doctor Mia?"


"The bag has two. Look at this"


I looked at the monitor in front of me. Suddenly my tears came. If Mandala had seen this.


"Don't be sad, watch the baby"


"What's my baby twin?"


Doctor Mia nodded.


"Your long wait. You finally have twins"


"Yes" I'm back sobbing.


"Always pray, be assured that miracles must exist. Sure that his father will come back to his senses"


"Thank you doctor Mia"


"Jaga. You have to be strong and patient. You've been waiting for this for a long time".


Doctor Mia and I hugged. For a moment I felt the burden on my heart decrease.


"Don't forget to eat nutritious food. Remember, there are two people in your stomach".


I nodded with a smile and said goodbye to Doctor Mia.


-----------


I sat down on the side of the Mandala bed. As usual since Mandala was in a coma, I asked her to speak while noting what happened that day. So that later if Mandala is aware, she will read it and know every event that occurs as long as she is unconscious.


While writing, I was talking.


I saw Mandala's hand move. I stopped my writing activities. I clasped Mandala's hand, it responded to my grasp. Instantly I pressed the emergency button while letting my hand stay within the grasp of the Mandala.


The doctor who came saw the Mandala reaction. Ask Mandala to continue moving her hand even though the eye is still closed.


"It's good progress ma'am, keep talking. Most likely, Mr. Major will soon be aware"


I just nodded in response to the doctor's words. My tears are dripping. I kept letting my hands hold Mandala's. When the doctor and the nurse came out, I asked Mandala again.


"Captain, you heard me. Move your hands if you hear me."


I kept kissing mandala's hands because of my happiness. Then I put my stomach in that hand.


"Captain, I'm pregnant. There's our son here"


The mandala moved her hand. Water came out of the Mandala Eye. Mandala cries. I immediately recorded everything. What time does the Mandala move and what time does the Mandala cry. I want all Mandala activities to be recorded and I remember as our memories later.


Today was a good start for everyone. May the Mandala wake up tomorrow and wake up from her long sleep.


---------------------


"grandmother"


"Mother"


The sound of two little boys making me and mom look over.


"Have you finished the bath, baby?"


I hugged them both.


"I have to go to the dock baby, pick up Melky and the kids"


"They're gonna come here?"


"Yes, Princess Kangen said with a double D"


"Remember mother Ga, there were butterflies this morning. We want guests"


"Mom still believes that"


I went out of the kitchen holding my twins.


Mandala kissed her two sons and kissed me on the forehead before getting into the car.


"Be careful, yeah"


Mandala nodded and took the car away from the house.


We lived on this island for two years.


When I was five months old, we moved here. At that time Mandala was still not fully healed. This is where I take care of Mandala. Train him back to walk and make him return to normal activities.


Mandala filed for early retirement and began to manage this place into a tourist area. I stopped working at the hospital and opened a small clinic here. My big clinic in the city is still running and that's also one of our sources of income right now.


I also brought you here so I could easily take care of you. And now, everything returned to its original state. The mandala has healed completely, although sometimes the chest often hurts when too tired.


We have two twin sons who I gave birth to normally even though I fainted after giving birth.


Mandala wanted one of her children named Dewa, to remind us of the past story, how the happiness that we now get.


And Dirga was taken Mandala from Dirgantara. Reminds him that his father was an aviator in the Air Force.


Our relationship with Melky and her family remains intertwined. Mandalas and I visit their homes sometimes. Melky and Mandala agreed to sell the big house and divide justly all those who were entitled to the house. Now Melky has her own home with Nia and her two daughters.


Mama and Brother Dali were visiting the island when the twins were born. Mama looks happy to see her twin grandchildren. Mandala and I agreed to hide all our stories from Mama and buried them in the ground. So that the story can no longer appear in our future.


--------------------


"Honey, let's get up. Kasian grandma has to take care of the twins alone"


Mandala hugged me from behind.


Instead of answering Mandala, I ran to the bathroom.


"Huek.huek" I suddenly felt nauseous and my head was dizzy.


"Why you, baby?" Mandala pinched my shoulder while handing me the eucalyptus oil that I have been carrying for one week.


I rubbed my stomach with eucalyptus oil and inhaled its aroma.


I stood in Mandala's aid and returned to bed.


"Please take care of the twins. I'm going to sleep again"


"Should I call a doctor at the clinic?"


I just shook my head.


"You sure you're okay? did I call auntie a massage?"


I shake again. I took Mandala's hand and held it.


"How old are the twins?"


"You're the mother, you don't know the age of her child?"


"I'm asking you Kapteeennn"


"Alright, it looks like it'll take eighteen months"


I put Mandala's hand on my stomach.


"The twins want to have an ade"


Mandala looked at me and looked at her hand that was in my stomach.


"Seriously dear?"


I'm nodding. Mandala hugged me. If the time of twin pregnancy Mandala was conscious, Mandala would react the same as this.


"Thank you dear. Thank you for this happiness"


Without me noticing Mandala sobbing. I also sniffled.


The twins entered the room while running towards the bed.


"Dad. mother"


Mandala took off her arms at me. Grabbing her twin sons and sitting with me on the bed.


"Holding your stomach. There's a little sister here"


Mandala pointed the hands of her two sons to me


"Related girl?" I looked at Mandala


Mandala nodded


"Related, God willing women"


I'm just smiling. Mandala hugged me back.


Protest and embrace me.


The four of us hugged together.


Lord, please do not separate us.


Give us happiness.
