Satya, Syaida and Gio were still waiting in front of the operating room. It's been a half hour after baby Salwa was born but the doctor hasn't come out yet.
Shortly after, the doctor and several other nurses came out. Gio frowned when he saw doctor Rini who also came out of the operating room.
"How's my wife doing, Doc?" satya asked impatiently
Rini and Sinta could only sigh. Gio whose profession is the same as theirs certainly knows something is going on with his patients.
"Why is Doctor Rini here?" asked Gio who was already unable to hide his curiosity.
"Salwa is my patient" Rini said
"What?" Gio was shocked
"Doctor Rini Salwa has cancer?" asked Gio in disbelief
Duars
Like being struck by lightning in broad daylight Satya and Syaida immediately limp. Syaida felt her head dizzy, her vision began to blur and became dark. Syaida fell unconscious, fortunately Gio quickly held his body that almost collapsed to the floor.
"Great darling" Gio patted Syaida on the cheek
"What I brought my wife first. Lo must be strong Bang for the sake of your child" Gio immediately held Syaida and brought her to the ER room to check her directly.
Meanwhile, Satya was still quietly waiting for the doctor's next explanation.
"Are you Salwa's husband, sir?" ask Dr. Rini
Satya just nodded with a blank look.
"Let's go to my room" Dr. Rini walked along followed by Satya who was still trying to gather her consciousness.
Satya had arrived in front of the room doctor Rini who on her door was written 'Cancer specialist doctor' Satya felt his chest tight and his body weak. Satya limped into the room and sat in the front seat of Rini's doctor.
"So are you ready to hear everything sir?" asked Doctor Rini to exhale violently
"Yes my Dok is ready" Satya looked blankly as if ready to hear the worst reality from the doctor.
"Salwa has been suffering from leukemia for a long time. Even when she was pregnant her illness had reached stage 4"Doctor Rini breathed in
"I've told Salwa to abort her womb. Because it is very risky for his condition. What Salwa suffered was blood cancer and if He gave birth then He would have severe bleeding like you saw earlier" Dr Rini explained
Doctor Rini breathed heavily and threw her body on the back of the chair.
"I still remember Salwa's phrase 'This baby is my hope' that's what Salwa said. As a doctor, I cannot force my will. Salwa is a strong and tough woman facing all her own problems" said Rini again
"Then how's my wife doing now Doc?" satya asked already with glassy eyes
"Salwa is still critical and unconscious. Salwa must immediately get a spinal cord donor. That was the only way he could save his life. Salwa has never done any treatment other than the drugs taken. I don't know what reason Salwa did not want to just do chemotherapy " explained Dr. Rini
"Do what's best for my wife doc. I will pay whatever the cost" Satya pleaded
"It's not a matter of cost, sir. But we have to find people who want to donate their back sum sum bones and who match Salwa" explained Dr. Rini again
"I just doc, I'm willing to donate it to my wife" said Satya
"Well later I will have the nurse check her match so that she can quickly donate to Salwa" said Dr. Rini
"Can I see my wife doc?" ask Satya
"It can, but only one person yes because Salwa is now in the ICU room" said Rini
Satya nodded and walked outside the doctor's room and headed for Salwa's room.
Satya stared wistfully at the hijab-wearing woman who was lying weakly with several medical devices attached to her body parts. Salwa's beautiful face looks pale, lips that always smile kindly now look very pale.
Satya sat on the bedside chair with her hands clasping Salwa's hands and placed them on her cheeks.
You're such a fool. Why let your disgusting blood drip in here huh?
If you're sick, thank God for dying so quickly. So I can be free of you
All his vile remarks to Salwa came back to Satya's mind until He was sobbing.
"I beg you, don't punish me like this. I won't be able to if you leave me. Honey hold on, I'll find a donor for you. I'm not gonna yell at you anymore... Hiks.. I was wrong to say that, I wouldn't be able to do it if you go, baby" Satya cried sobbing and kissed Salwa's hand many times
I'll forgive you if our son is born. I hope I can still see you after this child is born
"Darling I beg you to be able to see me and our dear child. You have to be strong for our children, baby. Riza still needs you dear" cried Satya back to being
Satya kissed Salwa's forehead, cheeks, eyes and lips. Satya really condemned his stupidity because he was not aware of Salwa's disease. Though Salwa used to often nosebleed, but stupidly Satya did not pay attention to it. Satya was stupid and now there is regret that covers her heart.
