Not My Baby

Not My Baby
3. Gift and memories


"How did it go?" Viona immediately asked Aruna as soon as the pregnant woman came out of the consultation room to check her content.


Instead of answering Viona's curiosity the woman just smiled displaying a row of her white teeth.


Viona frowned as soon as she saw Aruna's mysterious smile.


"Well guess?" Aruna asks Viona to guess her baby's gender, yes! their visit to the hospital today was to check the gender of the baby she was carrying. Actually, they have long wanted to see the gender of the baby but because of the new cost limitations now they can check the gender.


"Most certainly men." Aruna immediately looked at Viona surprised how could her friend know?


"I right?" Viona laughs at the reaction of her best friend, while laughing she helps Aruna get into the Taxi they have ordered.


The pregnant mother pursed her lips in annoyance Because Viona's guess was correct.


"Kok you know?" Annoyed annoyed.


When they were in the taxi, Viona answered the pregnant woman's question.


"During pregnancy you never complain, even too independent for the size of the mother who is pregnant again, you are also very strong and brave, so I'm sure the baby must be a boy." Viona smiled as she said her answer, in fact she only had to answer but when considering how hard Aruna struggled with her baby she was sure her gender was male.


Aruna smiled, saying that Viona was not wrong because during the pregnancy of her baby she never had any trouble at all.


"I never complain because all your work is done." Aruna embraces Viona's shoulder hugging her best friend affectionately.


"Yes have to dong! why would I stay with you if it wasn't for that?" Sahut Viona returned Aruna's embrace was no less tight.


Aruna laughed amusedly. "This baby's got two mothers who'll look after her later, let alone her having a mother like you."


"We'll keep it together" Aruna continued smiling.


Both of them laughed so happily, The two friends were strengthening each other, in the world they lived there was no one who could strengthen them but themselves, that's why they only have each other as life boosters.


The taxi driver who delivered the two women was also moved to see how the relationship was so Harmonious, even though he knew if one of them must have been very badly hit by the situation that hit him, but the other one exists and always faithfully accompanies her.


"I hope you'll always be together forever." The muttering of the Taxi driver was soft, he did not want to disturb the harmony created between Aruna and Viona.


Unfortunately, the future no one knows what will happen to them.

A lie!


Aruna lied to her!


If all Aruna's words were true, he couldn't have been in front of the ER waiting for the operation to be carried out in there.


Now his best friend is struggling in the operating room for about three hours, when there has not been a week they promised to keep the baby together but how can all this happen?


How panicked he was when he saw Aruna lying on the floor with blood flowing out of her legs.


When he saw that he immediately rushed to call the taxi and immediately took the woman to the nearest hospital, unfortunately the doctor said if Aruna's condition is very critical and if the baby is not taken immediately the mother and baby will be in danger.


Without wasting any more time he immediately agreed to the words of the Doctor, and now the operation is running for approximately three hours.


The cost is indeed very expensive but fortunately Viona has savings that she did save since childhood, Everything is enough for operating costs in addition to her salary during her work at Caffe so far.


The operating light turns to green if the operation is done in there is finished.


Not long the doctor who handles the operation process came out with a look that could not be interpreted.


"How's doc?" Viona approached the Doctor.


"I want to give you good news and bad news Miss." His throat was dry when the doctor said he would give good and bad news for him, his feelings were not good on the way to the hospital and now the doctor made his feelings worse.


"The good news is that the baby that your biological friend could have been born safely, but unfortunately the bad news that I have to tell you is that your friend Miss Aruna cannot be saved," Obviously the specialist was full of regrets. The bleeding that Aruna experienced was very severe, in addition to the endurance of a girl of the age of Aruna who was very weak made her life not helped.


Viona closed her mouth in disbelief with the words of the doctor just now, her tears racing out when she heard her best friend could not be saved.


That's not right? Aruna couldn't have left her this fast


"The bleeding experienced by Ms. Aruna has been very severe in addition to the anemia that patients suffer increasingly makes patients lose more blood," The doctor explains to Viona as the only patient Aruna has.


"You must be sincere Miss." His words strengthen


What's he supposed to do? how can he live in this world if his best friend does not exist? all this time she endured through her harsh life just for the sake of Aruna then what if the reason for surviving was no longer there?


"Aruna .. w-what should I do?" Viona sat weakly on the hospital floor, her tears unwilling to stop coming out of her eyes.


.


.


Viona stared blankly at the still wet navel of her best friend, never imagined if Aruna would be this fast leaving herself alone in this world.


"Patient daughter, Aruna must be sad to see you cry like this." The mother of the parlour was also so devastated by Aruna's sudden departure.


It never occurred to her that Aruna would leave them this soon, even she was so shocked when Viona told her that Aruna died after giving birth to her baby, no one had told her about Aruna's pregnancy all along and suddenly she just got word after her daughter was gone.


The child he raised with both hands is now gone after leaving a baby boy who he was born to be full of struggle.


Viona looked at the homely mother


"Mother, Aruna just left us all, ... Then how can I take care of the baby alone, ma'am?" her tears broke as soon as the mother of the parlour took her into her warm embrace.


Thinking about the fate of that poor baby Viona was so sick how was her life without a father and mother by her side? what should she do to raise the baby with complete maternal and paternal affection?


The mother wiped Viona's tears gently.


"Don't worry son, the mother who will take care of him, you just need to focus on thinking about your marriage that will be held soon," said the mother of the house trying to calm the young girl in his arms.


For her to take care of a newborn like this she is used to, do not let because of worrying about the condition of the baby Aruna, Viona becomes negligent in her marriage later.


"Now we go home?" Take the mother home to Viona.


The girl said she stood up and followed the mother home home home.


.


Viona rubbed Aruna's bed the scent of the woman was still attached to the room that was not even that wide, this is where they always spent time together since childhood until they grew up.


Usually Aruna will treat him if he is injured because of the blow given by his father.


But all that did not last long because he was forced to move in with his parents after the death of his biological mother, even so their friendship still went well as ever.


Recollecting her memories with Aruna, Viona is attracted to the wooden box that sits on the nightstand next to Aruna's bed.


Just an ordinary box yet it was locked so tightly as if there was a secret in it, since when was the box there?


Viona stood up from her seat trying to find the whereabouts of the key to open the box


It is not difficult to find objects that are hidden by her best friend, because Aruna is forgetful if she wants to hide something she will put it in a place that is easy to find.


Meet me!


It's true if Aruna keeps the keys under the bed.


Clique


The box opened and it turned out that there was another gift box inside.


On top of the blue box is For Baby Arkana Kalinga.


Viona frowned wondering who Arkana was?


His question was answered as soon as he opened the box, it turned out that a pair of beautiful blue night baby shoes were inside.


In addition to shoes he also found greeting cards there.


Happy birthday to 1 little baby mom!


Viona's tears flowed again even Aruna had given her baby a gift and a name before the baby was born, the box was a little dusty already made sure if Aruna prepared it long maybe a few days before he found Aruna hiding in this parlour first.


"Basic ridiculous." Isak Viona could not be restrained.
