The Bride Pay
False contractions

Alex traveled long distances, even the time he expected to be only 4 hours, turning into 6 hours due to rainy weather and many areas affected by flooding.

At night, Alex just arrived in the rural area that he thought as the area where the Melanie family developed the tea garden business.

Over here, Alex found out to almost the entire village, asking everyone about the photo of the beautiful girl on his cell phone.

"His name is Melanie Rendra. If you like watching television, you must have seen it, he is also an artist writer. Please, her family owns the largest tea garden in the region, do you know about it?" alex asked some of the people who were gathering at a food stall.

"I'm sorry, we don't know" replied one resident.

Almost everyone who met Alex, as if evading, just answered not knowing and passed away.

It was getting late, and Alex had not gotten anything in the area, he decided to look for lodging or whatever he could stay to just rest, he would continue his search tomorrow morning.

While driving around, he found nothing until midnight, and decided to go back to his car and sleep in the car.

Until almost morning, Alex could not fall asleep, his mind was wandering, thinking of Melanie who was out of nowhere. But he believes, this area is the village in intent, the village where Mr. Gio developed a tea garden by employing all residents to lift the economy of the citizens.

There is something strange indeed, Mr. Gio is a big businessman, but no one knows the name, even they seem to hide something.

Until the third day, Alex did not also tell Hayley, the old pregnant woman was lacking rest and no appetite, Aaron was confused and did not know what to do.

"Has Alex not called yet? Hasn't there been any word from Melanie?" hayley asked in the morning, when they had not yet come down from the bed.

"No, I think our estimates are wrong, Melanie must have really gone abroad" Aaron replied.

"No way. Melanie's love dies with Alex, she can't be far from Alex."

"But why did Melanie choose to leave, shouldn't she be more than happy to spend her last days with Alex?"

"You men will not understand how strong a woman's heart is. How could Melanie let Alex know she was dying, that would leave a scar for Alex" Hayley said.

"You ladies are so complicated, so weird!" grunting Aaron.

Hayley uncovers the blanket and intends to get off the mattress, but suddenly she feels her stomach cramp and ache.

"Why, Sweetheart? does your stomach hurt?" aaron asked worriedly, he saw Hayley holding her stomach while grimacing in pain.

"Ah, yes. A little bit" Hayley replied.

"Wait here, don't move." Aaron got up from the bed and looked for his phone.

"Wait, Sweety. I'll call the doctor," said Aaron, he's in the fog looking for a cell phone that he forgot where to put.

"Oh my God, where my cell phone is," cried Aaron annoyed, he approached Hayley, groping his wife's stomach.

"Is it very painful? is it time?" ask Aaron.

"It doesn't hurt much, but it hurts down here." Hayley pointed at the bottom of her stomach. "I'm going to go to the bathroom for a minute."

"Slow down" said Aaron, he helped his wife get off the bed, but to his surprise, the bed that Hayley had just slept on left a patch of blood.

"Blood! the blood!" shouted Aaron hysterically, he did not lead Hayley to the bathroom but ran out of the room just wearing tight shorts.

"Lakshmi, Lakshmi!" shouted Aaron, his voice so loud that made all the servants run over.

"Where's laksmi? call a doctor quickly. My wife's bleeding!" said Aaron shouting.

"Oh my God, what should I do?" aaron asked confusedly, he rubbed his face rough and then came back to Hayley.

"What does it feel like to hurt so much? does he want to be born? is it time?" Aaron's question made Hayley smile, her husband's handsome face as panic and worry made her look charming.

"Don't smile. I'm afraid, Sweetheart, is it still sick?" ask Aaron. "Wait a minute, Laksmi will call the doctor."

Hayley's desire to go to the bathroom was finally reduced, she sat on the mattress while adjusting her breath, the pain in her stomach was not too often, the distance between contractions was still quite far.

With sweat pouring out, Aaron held the wife's hand, one of his hands stroked Hayley's big belly, he whispered softly. "Daddy please, come out without hurting mommy. Yes, Honey?" Aaron Pinta.

Hearing the husband's whisper to his baby in the stomach, Hayley shook her head slowly. How can a baby be born without causing pain.

"I don't mind even being sick, honey," Hayley said.

"But I object! how could I let you get sick just like that, you can't get sick!" said Aaron excited.

"How can our child be born?"

"I'm going to ask the doctor that our child be born without you having to feel any pain."

Hayley did not argue, she just smiled at her husband, but occasionally grimaced as contractions began to come.

"Is it still sick?" ask Aaron worried.

"Sickness, sometimes not."

"Huh? is our baby just joking. What does it mean to torture you like this" said Aaron annoyed.

A few minutes later, Laksmi arrives with a female doctor who is already a private doctor to Hayley.

"So, is it time?" ask Aaron.

"In the meantime, I have to check on you first" the doctor replied.

Aaron remained calm watching the doctor check his baby's blood pressure and heart rate.

"The baby's heart rate is normal, it's just that the girl's blood pressure is low. Did you not forget to take the vitamins I gave you?" ask doctor.

"No, Doc. I always drink."

The doctor just nodded slowly.

"Indeed the approximate day of birth is near, and what the lady is experiencing are signs of the imminent birth. This is called a false contraction. The race of pain and pain comes only at certain moments, and the distance between the current and subsequent contractions is quite far."

"If it is time to give birth, contractions will occur more often and longer. Fake contractions are very facial in the nature of old pregnant women, no need to worry," explained the doctor.

"But, there's blood, Doc," Aaron said. Hayley then shifted her sleeping position and showed blood spots on the bed sheet.

For a moment, the doctor thought. "Well, we'll check straight to the hospital. We do the ultrasound so that the results are clearer, "doctor's advice.

"What does this mean, Doc?" ask Aaron.

"Some pregnant women do experience spots before the day of delivery. But clearly, we should do a more detailed examination."
