Suddenly Ale sobbed in his sleep, Melva who was by Ale's bedside became anxious. So she tried to hold Ale's hand and caress him and say a word of comfort so Ale would realize that what she was going through was just a dream.
" Wake up Ale you're just a nightmare. Don't cry anymore! You're just having a nightmare" said Melva trying to calm Ale who was still crying in her sleep.
Melva was aware that perhaps this was one of the forms of trauma Ale had experienced.
So Melva tries to wake Ale up and realize that what she is going through is now just a nightmare.
" Agh.."
"Ale, are you conscious? Relax there is me standing guard here." said Melva again while still holding her best friend's hand tightly.
" Thirsty." cried Ale with a voice barely audible to Melva's ears.
" Yes, you will be thirsty! You're crying even though you're sleeping" Melva said in a slightly teasing tone to Ale so Ale didn't think too much about the trauma she was going through.
" I'm sorry, if I'm always troubling you!" continued Ale with a soft voice.
" That's it! We are brothers. There is no way that you are troubling me. That should be how it is. A brother will be next to his brother in need. So you don't feel sorry for me like that" Melva said in a comforting tone.
" How's Ray doing? Can I look at him now? I'm worried about his condition!" ali said in a weak voice.
" Let's calm down! Gani is currently with Ray. What is more important now, all you have to do is take care of the child in your womb. I understand, with your feelings for Ray, but you also have to take care of the child in your womb so that he grows amazingly! I won't stop you from meeting Ray when you're really strong and healthy. Hence, all you have to do now is to improve your condition so that you are healthy quickly." Melva advised in a soft voice because she realized that Ale actually still loves her husband.
How not? they are related not just 1 or 2 months but many years. And from their intimate relationship has produced 1 boy and 1 child who are still in the womb Ali today.
Ale could only sigh weakly, he realized that Melva and the others would continue to protect themselves from coming to Ray at this time.
According to her feelings, Ray is currently in a condition that is not okay, which is why her best friend forbids her to be able to see the condition of her husband.
Maybe to keep his own feelings and health. But curiosity about her husband's condition makes Ale even so difficult to focus his health. He keeps thinking about Ray's condition that he doesn't know how it ends.
Melva could guess what Ale was thinking at the moment, so she then continued her words so that Ale, her best friend and cousin could get some peace at least for today.
" Gini, if today according to the doctor's examination you are fine, I promise to take you to see Ray. But you also have to promise, to maintain the condition of your body because not only you need strength but also the child in your womb. He really needs you to be strong in your womb, so does Ray he needs you to always be strong and strong to face all situations that may be a little stifling. Remember that you still have us. Gani and I will always be there to be a strong milestone to sustain you" Melva said with a smile, leaving Ale feeling calm.
Indeed, these two people have always been there to be a helper as well as an advisor who is often needed by Ale in living this life without parents.
Ale nodded his head vigorously, for some reason the words of Melva injected a lot of strength into his body. So Ale felt the strength and passion to live his life.
He remembered the child in his womb who was soon born and the problems of his life that had not been completed until here. There is also still Alex who desperately needs her presence as a mother who leads her way to the truth until she grows up.
" Now, that's dong!" melva said with a wide smile as she was happy to see her cousin rise again.
" Now you eat first, so that you may be stronger in facing this life. I just brought you a snack, but this is your favorite food" Melva said as she opened a paper bag containing Ale's favorite food.
" Dimsum?"
" He he he looks yes from the smell?" asked Melva with her special laugh.
" Huum, it smells tempting."
" I know, these are the foods that became our mood boosters. I can't bear to buy 50 of your favorite seeds" Melva said cheerfully.
Ale's eyes were round to hear that Melva brought her favorite food in very large quantities. The happy sparkle was inside Ale's face.
Imagine that, the happiness of his friend and cousin is very simple. Only by being able to enjoy favorite foods, has become his happiness now.
Melva could only smile as she had already served the food before Ale, and instantly her cousin devoured the food like a starving person, like a person who had not been fed for several days.
" Good?"
" Banget!! The black pepper saos are delicious!!" even without realizing Ale was already trying to enjoy the 10th dimsum.
Melva could only smile seeing the greedy-looking Ale enjoying the food available before her quickly.
" Eat a lot. At least if you can't eat, heavy food. The food in front of it can replace some of the nutrients for your child.I choose the taste of chicken mushrooms and also chicken carrots, your favorite." said Melva while looking at her best friend with a happy look.
" Gani how long? " ask Ale with his mouth still full of his favorite food. Making Melva become a little amused at Ale's child-like behavior.
" When you're done eating, I'll find Mas Gani. In the meantime you spend it as much as you do! Instead of later you wrestle with Mas Gani!" milva said while giggling amusedly, because considering that her husband and cousin had the same taste.
As if afraid that if the food was taken by Gani, Ale immediately moved the food beside him, so that if Gani later came could not take the food. His behavior made Melva laugh out loud.
