Nadia welcomed the arrival of Eagle and Bella who had just returned from the Obstetrician. Nadia is excited to hear about Bella's pregnancy. So he can't wait to know the condition of Bella and her fetus.
"Where's Lang?? Bella's content is healthy, right??" The eagle that walked left Bella behind did not answer her mother's question. The eagle continued to walk towards his room with a sad face.
Nadia was confused to see the attitude of her son. Shouldn't he be happy to welcome his wife's pregnancy.
"Bella what's going on?? You're okay, right??" Nadia turned to Bella who arrived beside her.
"Everything is good Bun, Thank God the fetus is 6 weeks"
"But why is an Eagle so strange??" Ask Nadia.
"Let's Bella explain yes Bun, now Bella followed Sister Eagle first" Bella smiled faintly at Nadia before leaving her with curiosity.
Bella saw the Eagle sitting on the edge of the bed with elbows resting on both knees. The Eagle's head bowed with his eyes closed.
Bella approached the Eagle and sat down next to her husband. Gently rubbing the straight back belongs to the Eagle.
"Sister, you believe me, right??" Bella asked in a soft voice.
For a moment Bella had not received an answer from her husband.
"How can I believe it after the Doctor said all those possibilities!! What did he say just now?? Impaired pregnancy, hypertension, preeclampsia, eclampsia. That alone scares me" said the Eagle desperately.
"Sound me Brother!!" Bella grabs the Eagle's cheek to look at him. Then the other hand grabbed the Eagle's hand and carried it to his stomach.
"Here grows the little angel whom God has entrusted to us. He is your own flesh and blood. Would you choose me over the one who was just given the chance to live in this world??" Bella continued to look into the Eagle's eyes deeply and soulfully.
"But you also have to think about your health baby, even though the doctor says you are healthy even though you only have one kidney. But remember all those possibilities" Reply Eagle still with his fear.
"That's just a possibility, sister, it could not have happened to me. The doctor also told me that my condition was healthy. Surely being able to go through all this is fine"
"It's so heavy baby, I really don't want to see you lying helpless anymore" said the Eagle into Bella's arms. Make Bella's shoulder as her headrest.
"When I was desperate with my feet, you always encouraged me to heal. Always by my side until now I can walk normally again. But why not now??" Bella softens her voice, she knows talking together loudly will not find common ground.
"That's different, baby"
"That's the same sister, you did all that for the sake of the one you love right??" The eagle nodded giving Bella an answer.
"Now you also have to do it again for the sake of your loved ones. No, now there are even two who need love from you. He's in there looking forward to your love. He'll be so happy to have a father like you. And do you have the heart to make him leave before he feels that affection from you??" Bella's words hit the Eagle's heart hard.
Actually the doctor said that Bella and her fetus are in a healthy and strong condition. But the Eagle was already frightened to hear the possibility that happened for pregnant women who only have one kidney. Even the doctor has explained if most likely Bella will not experience it all. But the Eagle has his own fears.
"It's so heavy baby, actually I can't afford to pick any of you"
"If so, don't choose one. Maintain both!! I have you who will always protect and take care of me. And we have a God who will always work miracles for all his people. So don't be afraid anymore"
Bella rubbed the cheek of the Eagle that was already wet with tears.
"If you doubt the rich gini, then I must ask for protection of who else. Didn't you promise to always protect me?? Who else should I depend on?? Do I have to go back to what I used to?? Living in solitude until I had to change myself in order to protect myself??"
Again Bella managed to touch the Eagle's heart. He is the one who should be the back of his wife but he is the weak one.
"No, don't be like that. I'm the one who's gonna do all that. You got me, don't think like that anymore"
"So what's your decision, brother??" Bella stared at the Eagle expectantly, hopefully the Eagle did not hesitate anymore with the decision to keep her fetus.
"Alright, we take good care of our child candidates. Don't blame me if I'm overprotective of you baby, it's all for your good and the fetus in your womb" said the Eagle firmly.
"Every Papa, as long as it's for our son's sake I'll obey all your commands" Bella said with her spoiled tone.
Papa's call from Bella alone makes the Eagle's heart warm, especially if later his son who will call him like that. The eagle was impatient to hear it.

And sure enough, the Eagle proved his point during these few months. She is so strict in taking care of Bella, regulating everything that goes into Bella's stomach, should be nutritious and clean should not be careless. Eagles do not hesitate to do their work at home just to accompany Bella.
The eagle really became a standby husband. And Bella was not at all bothered by what the Eagle was doing because it was all for her good and her child-to-be who was less than a month away would be present in this world.
"What's our son in there??" Ask the Eagle to Bella. The eagle lay on his face in Bella's already huge belly.
Bella chuckles at her husband's strange question.
"Where do I know Sis, try asking her yourself" Bella gently rubbed Eagle's hair.
"What are you in there, baby?? Cepetan out dong, Papa already can't wait to see you" Eagle's hand that was in Bella's stomach suddenly felt a movement from within.
"Look dear he responded to my words" said the Eagle with eyes that reflected his happiness.
"Yes, she knew her father was talking to her" Bella felt warm in her heart to see her husband so happy.
"About when she was born dear, I was already impatient" Suddenly the Eagle put on his sad face.
"Sabar Kak, just count the days. Not lam__"
"Aduhhhhh" Bella grimaced with pain in the lower part of her stomach.
"Why you, baby??" The eagle panicked to see Bella in pain.
"No idea, sister, but my lower stomach hurts. It's like giving birth"
"Whataa??"
