Revenge Revenge Hanna
New Hope

The limp body rolled helplessly, his lips dry, his eyes puffy with a deathly pale face slumped into the pillow. Before long his hand felt up the nightstand grabbed the glass, then reluctantly raised his head. He looked at the empty glass in his hand.

The woman with the big belly, shuffled to the edge of her throat mattress stuck dry without a drop of water from night until the end of this afternoon.

The step he took forced as hard as he could to come to the door, while holding the stomach that seemed to be about to fall. He glimpsed the clock that hangs on the wall of his dim room. It was 3 pm, he hoped that the man had not come home so that he would not cross paths with him.

It had been a few days since the last conversation with her husband that they had been quiet with each other. Although repeatedly, the husband tried to open the conversation and tried to apologize. But, he seemed to have not been able to accept everything that happened.

Just realized Hendi, all this time has depended a lot on his wife. From waking up in the morning, there are shirts and pants and matching ties on the mattress. Then, in the kitchen breakfast complete with a glass of milk was held at the dining table. Not to mention, shoes that have been shaded kinclong lying on the shelf almost every morning.

Even with an enlarged stomach, Siska always prepared all the needs of her husband without a word. He tried to melt that hardened heart with all his devotion, except for his duty in bed that never had the opportunity to fulfill it.

But these few days, all the treatment and scenery was no longer visible to Hendi. Only the door of a guest room was tightly closed and locked from the inside, always he knocked every morning that greeted him. But there was no sound of anything to say, let alone go out to see him.

He tried to accept and realize, his mistakes were not easy to forgive.

This time it was the opposite, the husband who tried to serve the fatal mistake he did. A glass of milk for pregnant women is always provided on the table. Sometimes, he also made breakfast before leaving for the office.

Of course Siska will only come out if the sound of her husband's car has been heard away from their house. While crying he drank milk and bribed the breakfast lying on the table.

"If it hadn't happened, I would have been the happiest wife in the world to be treated this way" she whispered between sobs.

Siska slowly opened the door to the kitchen, for some reason her body was so limp today. Maybe because he ate nothing all day.

As he passed the dinner table, a glass of milk and a piece of sandwich Hendi had prepared this morning, still lying untouched. He just glanced at it and continued towards the white water.

After feeling enough, with a glass of water he returned to his room. However, only a few steps could be heard the sound of the front door being opened. Siska was aghast and rushed up her pace, she still did not want to meet the man now.

Unfortunately, his feet tripped over the table legs and the glass was released from his hands. It was fortunate that the large stomach did not fall because a hand quickly and swiftly propped up his body.

"Aren't you papa?" tanyanya looked worriedly at the woman in front of her.

Siska simply shook her head and intended to pick up the glass shards scattered beneath her.

"Let me," prevented Hendi from carrying his wife's body to the chair carefully. He glanced at the glass of milk and breakfast that was still intact.

"Wait here, I make milk" he said without waiting for an answer he immediately took a glass.

"No need, I'll go back to the room." refused Siska and was about to get up to the guest room.

"At least don't torture the boy! He's not sinful at all. I've made him suffer quite often at the beginning of his presence, lest he should suffer at the end of his parents' fault." hendi said looking at the wife who stopped right in front of the door of his room.

"He is indeed present above people's suffering, so let us get used to this."

"I'm sorry Siska" she whispered. Tears rolled freely in the corner of his eye.

"I'm sorry, for everything. Please don't torture her, just let me go and do as you please but not our baby. No matter what happens, the child is innocent. It's not fair for him to have to endure all this" he whispered in between his tears.

No matter how much the woman endured her pain, her eyes could not be lied to. His shoulders were shaken, his limp body collapsed in the arms of the husband. For a moment the two lovebirds dissolved in sobs, roars and screams of regret echoed in their homes.

After subsiding the two sat on the front floor of the guest room, with their bodies leaning against the wall.

"Honestly I don't want to lose you and I'm confused, what am I supposed to do about all this?" ask Siska.

"Just be here with me, and let me be the best father the rest of my life" said Hendi holding his wife's fingers in hope.

"Sounds very painful." The woman was downcast, the water still sliding from her eyes.

"Didn't everyone in the world have their own limits? We're just waiting for when and where that limit comes."

"But, if there is no cause the limit will not come as quickly as predicted."

"Whether or not there is a cause, death always lurks us. It's just a matter of time, Siska."

The woman fell silent, her eyes looking blankly. His world was gloomy, no hope and desire flashed through his mind. All he thought about now was, the pain of betrayal and loss in plain sight.

"Wait here, I'll make the baby's milk" she said, standing up and walking to the kitchen.

Before long he returned with a glass of milk and a plate of jam bread in his hand.

"Eat, after this we go to the doctor your face looks pale."

"I will change clothes, after this you can also prepare and do not refuse. There will be a time when you will no longer see me."

Siska glanced at the strapping back that had passed from beside her it was climbing up the stairs. His heart was still burning at his last word.

"You have to heal, Hendi" he said bitterly holding his stomach that had felt the kick of their future baby.

Then he drank the milk and ate the bread voraciously. Sure enough, the hunger had made him lose hope. Now after filling up suddenly his spirit is back on.

"I have to talk to Om Chandra and Aunt Viona to get the best treatment for Hendi's disease" she whispered.

"I will not let the disease rob me of my happiness, let's fight together for the healing of your father." murmured Siska while stroking her big belly.
