Possessive Love
A Couple of Twins

"The baby was born. A pair of baby boys and girls, Congratulations, Ma'am" Dara told Aretha with a smile.

"Ahamdulillah .. thank you, Doc," said Aretha who began to glaze over.

Aretha seemed to grin happily, when she heard the good news. However, she was a little surprised, because she gave birth to twins that she did not expect before, because indeed Dara also never told her about it, even with him who never thought to ask that, despite having done the USG repeatedly.

With great enthusiasm, the woman immediately asked the health condition of her two babies. After a few minutes, the two babies were stored on his chest.

Truly, it is the happiest pleasure for a mother, even more so for that woman who is indeed the first time. Aretha unceasingly reviewed the smile on her face. Sometimes he gives a soft swab on the back of his baby twin.

The fear and worry that had made him unsettled, finally completely disappeared in an instant.

After a while, a paediatrician brought the twins together to perform several checks regarding the physical condition and health of the babies accurately.

***

It had been almost an hour of waiting, making both Aretha's parents and in-laws even more worried. They really can't wait to hear the good news from a doctor.

Waiting in such circumstances made them unable to think clearly. Only bad thoughts filled his brain memory. Moreover, Carmila who had earlier seemed to be pacing back and forth unsettled.

However, after a while, the indicator light dimmed, a sign that the operation was completed. Carmila immediately stopped her activities, then looked at the indicator light that was directly above the door of the operating room.

Like Carmila, Anton and Maria did the same. There's a little relief. However, they still could not calm down completely, before the doctor gave a definite news about the condition of Aretha and her baby.

"Yes, Lord .. May Aretha and her baby be well" Carmila said.

"Already, Mi ... Aretha and the baby must be fine" Anton said as he approached his wife.

"Yes, Pi .. but you still can't calm down" Carmila replied.

Seeing the wife who was really unable to stem his anxiety, made Anton very unbearable. He had never seen his wife that hot before.

The door of the room opens. Dara came out of the room. Quickly, they approached her, while Dara could only widen her smile.

"Dok, how's my daughter and the baby doing?" ask Anton.

Dara again put on her smile. "The condition of the baby's mother and the baby is fine. The babies were twins with both male and female sexes," she explained, which surprised them. Between joy and disbelief, he somehow had to react to it, besides being a little flabbergasted at the news.

"That's it, Doc?" ask Carmila to make sure.

"Sure," answered Dara briefly.

"Thank God ...."

"Oh yes, the patient is in the process of recovery, it may take a little while to wait until transferred to the treatment room" Dara said.

"Good, Doc. Thank you," replied Anton.

"Okay, then I'll excuse you."

Dara immediately rushed from the place to carry out his duties as a doctor at the hospital.

"Jeng .. we have twin grandchildren" said Carnila happily.

"Yes, Jeng. I'm happy to hear it, too" replied Maria smiling knots. However, it could not cover the expression of anxiety that was still clearly visible on his face.

Anton, who realized his iron expression, immediately intended to contact Kris, just asking for David's true condition.

"I'll call Mr. Kris first, excuse me" Anton said with a gaze fixed on Maria.

"Please, sir," answered Mary.

Like Anton, Carmila also seemed aware of the anxiety on the look on Mary's face. Suddenly his happiness returned. Without him denying that he was still very worried about David at that time.

However David is the husband of his daughter and the father of his two twin grandchildren. How could his daughter not be slumped, when she heard her husband was not doing well, when he had just finished the labor process.

"Jeng .. We have to be sure that Dave's son is okay, nothing will happen to him" Carmila said.

"Yes, Jeng. Hope so," Maria replied.

Elsewhere, at the same time, Richard and Kris are still waiting for a doctor's answer about who the unconscious patient is between David and Rangga. With a feeling of anxious expectation, they were still faithfully waiting for that answer.

"The unconscious patient was named David Wijaya, sir," the doctor replied. "That's based on the identity card we found in the victim's wallet.

It was a shocking and painful news for Kris and Richard. Why would David have to go through all that? Their minds ask.

"So, what's the worst chance that's gonna happen?" kris asked with a trembling mouth.

The doctor paused for a moment, before finally responding, "Many possibilities will occur. It could be that the patient has a stroke, concussion, amnesia and other bad possibilities. However, it is only a possibility. It does not rule out the possibility, the patient will recover completely. It's just, it took a while. Pray for the best for the patient. Later, I will recommend the best doctor. Just calm down."

Chris and Richard were silent. His mouth was muddled, unable to say anything. Somehow have to accept the harsh reality. David's condition is certainly bad and not necessarily able to recover as soon as possible with all the explanations they get from the doctor.

The thing that made them most anxious was Aretha who was struggling desperately. It is certain that Aretha will be very bad, if you hear David's condition is very bad, whether the man will realize when.

"Yes, God ...." Kris covered his face with both palms. He has absolutely no power to hear all of that. The son he had always considered strong, just at that time was lying weak, fighting against a bad destiny that could happen, sooner or later.

"Why do you give this kind of trials? They are too young to face such a tough test" Kris added.

Without realizing it, her tears had washed her cheeks. Although he was not a doctor, he knew very little of the terrible possibilities that could happen to his son, and he was very powerless to imagine them. Meanwhile, the son-in-law was both struggling there.

"Om, trust me that Dave will be fine. We know he's a strong man, right? He is not a person who gives up easily, I think for now the principle is still valid, especially he knows that there is someone he is waiting for in his life," explained Richard trying to calm down.

Even so, still Richard himself could not shake his worries. In fact, if asked who is the most regretful person among them? The answer is Richard.

If only he hadn't told David that quickly, it probably wouldn't have happened that way. Because, he believes that the accident occurred because of panic when David was driving. He knew very well what David was like and he deeply regretted what he did without thinking long, without thinking about the bad possibility that would happen.

However, Richard did that precisely because he was also in a state of panic, because he saw Aretha who was bleeding quite a lot.

Yes, Lord .. Why am I so stupid? I should have known that it would be bad. Sorry, Dave.

Richard constantly cursed himself in his heart. He was truly sorry, for doing all this. Although most of the incident was due to fate, still he felt guilty to David and Aretha who at that time needed the figure of David was beside him to accompany the delivery process.

***

Kris and Richard have just finished their administration to remove the accident patient from the hospital, so that the transfer of David and Rangga to another hospital can be processed immediately.

Fortunately, the doctor who handled David at that time recommended a doctor who served in the same hospital with Aretha maternity place. At least, it would make it easier for the couple to meet.

After all, Kris and Richard immediately approached the two men who drove David and Rangga to the hospital, just to say thank you. Because, if without them, either the fate of David and Rangga will be like what.

"Sir, I am very grateful for your kindness, for helping my son and his partner. If there are no two of you, either my son will have the fate of what it is," said Kris with a sad look to hold the sadness.

"Together, Sir. I hope your son and his partner are okay. Although the doctor has sentenced them, but believe me nothing is impossible from the miracle of God. Believe that all will be well" replied one of the helpers known as the Word.

"Yes, Sir. Thank you, may God repay all your kindness," said Kris, widening his smile.

Not only did they get there, they also talked about other things about truck drivers that turned out to be directly handled by the police and indeed there was no further information about it.

After all was taken care of, David and Rangga were immediately rushed to the hospital which became the recommendation of the doctor who handled them. They were apparently carried by an ambulance, while the car driven by Richard seemed to follow from behind.

That night, the streets looked empty. However, there was heavy rain, so the atmosphere felt a little gripping. However, at least their journey was not too hampered by the congestion.

The longer the ambulance was getting faster, so that made Richard a little overwhelmed chasing after him. Moreover, in the midst of such heavy rain.

BRACKET!
