One Night Without Love

One Night Without Love
05 - Pregnant


As he opened his eyelids, the look of an anxious face was clearly engraved from both of Jamie's parents. Jamie was already in bed, his parents standing guard at Jamie's side.


"Jamie, why did you faint like this?" ask Mr. Jamal, Jamie's father.


"Dad," said Jamie still in a weak condition.


"You must be tired of drawing in front of the computer" complained Mr. Jamal.


"Jamie, have some warm tea first," Liah gave Jamie a glass of warm tea.


Jamie sipped on a warm tea, the nausea making him find it hard to swallow.


"Do you feel better?" ask Bu Liah.


Jamie shook his head slowly. Mr. Jamal and Ms. Liah looked at each other.


"How is it, soon we will have to meet the Janis family," complained Bu Liah while repeatedly glancing towards the wall clock.


"Would it be best to cancel the meeting?" sir Jamal's Proposal.


Seeing Bu Liah's sour expression made Jamie feel guilty for her mother. Her mother had been so excited since long ago, looking forward to this day.


"Mom, Dad, it's okay, I'm fine. Just a little dizzy, definitely because I'm sleep deprived" Jamie said.


Jamie got out of bed.


"I'll get ready, Mom" said Jamie.


"Yes, Mom and Dad are waiting outside" said Ms. Liah.


Jamie rushes to change clothes as Mr. Jamal and Ms. Liah leave.


"Ughh! Nausea," complained Jamie as he closed his mouth.


Quickly he stuffed the therapeutic aroma wind oil into the nostrils.


Nausea and dizziness accompanied by yellow eyes experienced by Jamie increasing every second.


...*****...


Jamie sits next to her mother as soon as she arrives at the restaurant where she will meet the family of her future fiance.


Ms. Liah has been so busy contacting her best friend who is currently reportedly on her way to the meeting place.


"Jamie, what's wrong with you? How did you stay quiet?" ask Mr. Jamal.


Jamie did not immediately answer, at this time the dizziness and nausea he experienced increasingly become. But he immediately drew his smile so that his father would not have to worry too much.


Mr. Jamal is a father who is overprotective of his children, especially Jamie, his only daughter.


"Duh, what a pity, Janis and her husband are still waiting for their son to come" Ms. Liah delivered the news she received.


"Dad, it doesn't matter to wait a little longer?" ask Bu Liah to her husband.


"Well, what can we do but wait, ma'am" Jamal said.


It's been an hour Jamie and the family are waiting for the arrival of a potential fiancee. In the waiting situation, Jamie tried hard to fight the nausea that increasingly tormenting him. He tried to force himself to look okay, rather than making his parents again anxious. Jamie is also very curious about the figure of the man who will be his fiancee.


Ms. Liah also did not know the face of the man who would be her daughter-in-law. Janis, her best friend, said that her son did not like to be photographed.


...*****...


Slowly, Jamie began to move his head. His nose sniffed the hospital's signature carbolic aroma. And sure enough, as soon as she opened her eyes, Jamie was already on top of the bed with a green covering curtain surrounding her.


A nurse pulls the curtain over, along with the arrival of a doctor and Jamie's parents, who appear to be very anxious.


"So, what's the matter with our son, Doctor?" ask Bu Liah.


"The results of the examination show that your child is fine" the middle-aged doctor replied while correcting the location of his round glasses.


"It's fine but why fainting like that?" complains Mr. Jamal.


Hearing the answer from the doctor then made Mr. Jamal, Ms. Liah, and Jamie immediately froze.


"W-what?! Pregnant?!" Bu Liah woke up first.


The middle-aged woman's expression stiffened, followed by her husband who immediately set their gaze simultaneously on Jamie. Jamie's brain is still frozen, he can't even think because he's too surprised.


"That's impossible, Doctor! It is impossible for my child to become pregnant, my child has not even died..," said Mr. Jamal immediately stopped.


Plaque...


One loud slap from Bu Liah landed directly on Jamie's cheek. Anger was immediately apparent in the eyes that were now filled with anger.


"Mom-Mom!" Jamie held her cheek, her tears began to spread.


"Who is that man?!" Ms. Liah endured her wrath.


Jamie's lips twitched, she was really scared to see her mother so angry. Anger overflowed until the middle-aged woman's face reddened.


"Who is that man?! Who's the guy who dares touch you, Jamilah?!" raung Bu Liah was full of wrath.


Mr. Jamal immediately hugged and gently patted the middle-aged woman's back lovingly.


Mr. Jamal must do so to avoid the uproar that would occur in the ER room.


"Mother..," Mr. Jamal pleaded. "Let's talk carefully" asked Mr. Jamal.


"Well how, sir?! Our son is absolutely outrageous! She could be pregnant like this!" Ms. Liah still couldn't contain her anger.


"Mom, let's go out first" said Mr. Jamal.


"Doctor, am I really pregnant?" jamie asked with a trembling voice and tears in her eyes.


"The results of the examination showed so," the doctor replied briefly.


"There's no way I could get pregnant, Doctor," Jamie said.


"No way how? Do you feel what you did not?" ask the doctor.


"If you don't do it, yes, it's impossible to get pregnant right?" The doctor smiled kindly.


The speech made Jamie's tears run high.


She never felt like she had done anything that would make her pregnant.  But if you have to remember the incident when she woke up without a thread with a foreign man in a hotel room, it is clearly the only cause of Jamie's pregnancy.


Jamie is devastated by the fact that she is currently pregnant with the child of an unknown man. A foreign man who on that night had taken his chastity because he was under the influence of alcohol.


"Hiks.. Julie," said Jamie.


...*****...


The atmosphere of Jamie's home is gripping as Jamie's older brother, Jamil, has just arrived home.


"What's this about? How is everyone so quiet?" ask Jamil.


"Catch away! Anyway, I don't want to know! Bring the man here to account for what he did!" the Bu Liah toilet.


"Mom, what man do you mean?" jamil did not understand.


Jamie's looking deeper. 


"What's responsible, ma'am?" ask Jamil in astonishment.


"Jamil, this sister of yours is really outrageous and can't take good care of herself until she ends up pregnant like this!" answer Ms. Liah.


"W-what?! Pregnant?!"
