SURVIVORS
Chaptre 336. I Want to Stay
"So, it's been a week. He still refused me to come closer" Dean lamented as they rested in the wheat field.
"Patience. It will be common again" said Dr Chandra.
"How long will he be?" ask Dean to know.
"It's usually just the first trimester" replied Dr. Chandra again.
"What is a trimester?" dean asked confused.
"Pregnant people are usually nine months old. Nausea usually appears in the first three months of—"
"Three months?" Dean cut off Doctor Chandra's words in shock. "For a long time ...." He's looking down lethargic.
Seeing that, doctor Chandra smiled knot. "Pregnant women, should be very guarded in those first three months. Your baby is very small. He's very fragile."
"Widuri really needs your attention and understanding right now. His heart is sensitive too. Don't make him sad" doctor Chandra said.
Indra walked over from the wheat field. "When do we plant this?" tanyakanya.
"Tomorrow. After a good rest we pick tomatoes and chili there. It's starting to mature.
"okay! So this farm doesn't have to be built anymore?" ask Indra again. They've been looking for livestock manure in the pasture, to mix with this wheat field.
"Sore after picking vegetables, we water first until it is quite wet. So tomorrow it's easy to plant the seedlings" Dean said.
"If you want to water, you better use sea water to water it. A little extra salt in the soil, it would be good to enrich this land," said Dr Chandra.
"Sea water? Where are we going?" ask Indra astonished.
"Actually, the view behind this hill leads to the sea. Only, after a long time, the trees there became shocking. The beach is covered" explained Dr Chandra.
"Waahh it's so fun. We can swim again on the beach," said Indra happily.

That afternoon, Dr. Chandra invited Widuri and the others to play on the beach. Hopefully, that way, Widuri's mood can come back good.
While others were playing on the beach, Dean and Indra took sea water several times to water the wheat fields. They watered until the soil began to saturate the water and was somewhat inundated in some places.
"That's enough. Leave it overnight until the water seeps. Tomorrow we spread the seedlings" Dean said.
"good. I can't wait to swim in the sea" Indra said. He flew right away leaving Dean.
The team enjoyed a beautiful afternoon by the beach. They play happily. Except for Widuri and Dean, who had to keep their distance.
Hey, I found a lobster here!" yelled Indra from the middle of the sea.
"Asiikkk .. bring it here!" shouted Niken happy. "Find a lot for dinner!" his screams are encouraging.
Indra soon returned with some big lobsters to the beach. At a distance of ten meters, Widuri already felt nauseous and ran away.
"That's fishy. Take it far away!" exclaims Dean angry. He wants to take Widuri away, but Widuri refuses. His nausea is getting worse.
"Let me bring him back," said Chandra sage.
"Dean, I'm coming" cried Marianne.
The four of them returned to the cottage by the waterfall pool. Doctor Chandra lowered Widuri to the ground.
"Thank you, Doc. The air here is much fresher" replied Widuri. He saw Dean lowering Marianne further, so as not to make her stomach nauseous.
"I'm sorry, Dean. I also don't know why this is so," Widuri's mind was sad.
"Don't grieve. He understands, really." Marianne patted Widuri's hand.
"Let's go in. You've had the wind from before. Come, I'll make you your favorite porridge" Marianne took with understanding.
Doctors Chandra and Dean watched the two enter the house. Dean could only take a deep breath and exhale it slowly. It was as if that heavy burden could be lost with his breath.
"I feel like a useless husband, Doc." Dean threw a pebble into the middle of the pool.
"Eh, I just saw an apple and a pear in the forest, it's getting ripe. You'd better pick it up for him. The sour taste is sweet and fresh, can also change the mood of pregnant people."
Doctor Chandra ignored Dean's complaint. Because he doesn't know what else to persuade. At a time like this, Dean could only be more understanding. Because actually, it's not just him who's sad. Widuri was also feeling sad.
"Tomorrow I'll pick for him" said Dean pleased.
"Good Dean. The only way for you is to continue to show even greater love and attention, so that Widuri does not feel sad. The burden of his mind is reduced. Can you?" ask doctor Chandra.
Dean nodded. "Can, Doc."

At dinner.
Widuri's resting upstairs. But in the dining room, a new discussion began.
"We've been here two weeks. So what's the next plan?" ask Sunil.
"Can we just stay here?" Niken asked Indra.
All eyes looked at both.
"You sure?" ask Indra.
"I think this place is perfect. There are hills, gardens, livestock, forests and the sea. We can live independently here. Then have a baby, like Widuri," Niken said.
"But then our baby can't get married, because there's no one else but us, here!" indra Debates.
Niken speechless. "Yes too!" muttered. "Why haven't I thought of that before?" polo said.
"Hah .. You are this!" Indra hugged Niken with anxiety.
"But, if Widuri wants to stay here, we can marry our child to their child. That must be good. Hahahaha," Niken laughed happily.
Now all eyes turned toward Dean, as if asking the question, "Are you going to stay here?"
Dean was confused himself.
"Hey, that's something I can't decide for myself. Widuri should also be asked, "elak Dean.
"Then, how are you?" dean asked Sunil and Robert.
"If you guys stay, I want to stay too!"
That sentence was surprising. They're looking. Marianne nodded with confidence.
"If anyone wants to stay here, I'll stay too. This place is so beautiful. As the Lord said, this is a perfect world. Basically, a simple life like this is my dream to enjoy retirement" Marianne said.
It seemed, Marianne already knew what she wanted. He was just waiting to arrive at the right place, as well as waiting for a friend. He couldn't have lived alone, no matter how good the place was.
So now it's just to ask yourself. What each wishes.
"I want to stay here too, if Niken and Indra are here!"
The sound surprised them. Widuri sat on the stairs, listening to their discussion. Dean was surprised to hear that. He already knows Widuri's wish. But Dean himself felt responsible to the Ruler. He wants to go wherever the Sovereign goes.
"Honey, there's no hospital here. There's no Doctor. How are you going to give birth?" ask Dean worriedly.
"No! You hear that?" indra on Niken. "If you're sick, how?"
Niken and Widuri fell silent.
