The Neglected Angel
Chapter 45. Aisha gives birth (1)

Chapter 45

Every night without Aisyah knowing that Andromeda sleeps in her room. Either on a mattress or in a chair while leaning against the bed.

But tonight, the woman woke up in the middle of the night. She saw her husband sleeping in a chair near her.

Aisha could only look at him in silence. Actually she wanted to touch her husband's sturdy arms and beautiful face. However, he was afraid that it would wake the man up. 

'Is there no love for me, Mom? Is there not one thing in me that makes you fall in love with me? You cheated, Mom! You managed to steal my heart, but not the slightest bit of your heart was given to me.'  (Disha)

Again Ayesha shed her tears. Ever since he dealt with Andromeda, the tears from his clear netra always produced a lot of clear fluid. Be it tears of sadness or tears of happiness.

Aisyah hurriedly closed her eyes when she saw the movement from Andromeda. Then, what he felt was the husband fixing the blankets, then kissing his forehead and cheeks.

Aisha's heart was beating fast. I don't know why she's happy with her husband's actions. He even hoped that Andromeda would move to bed and they would sleep in cuddles like they used to when they slept together.

Aisyah felt her bed creak signifying Andromeda to go up on her bed. Then, he also felt that the man rubbed his stomach gently and kissed her several times.

"Hopefully when you are born you can come out smoothly. Don't make it hard for your mom, yeah, baby!"

Aisha's heart rippled to hear Andromeda's words. He was upset himself for not being able to make the man fall in love with him.

'What is our heart made of, Mas! What is my concern, my attitude, and in nothing pleases in your heart.' (Disha)

The next day Andromeda stayed home to look after his wife . Moreover, her mother-in-law wants to visit Zahra who is still in the hospital. 

He saw the calendar there was a date circled by a red pencil. It was the date estimated by doctors for the birth of their daughter.

"Isn't this today's date?" Andromeda came to Aisyah in her room.

It was seen that the woman was asleep on her soft bed. Andromeda stroked that distended stomach.

"Innii u'iidzuhaa when wadzurriyyyatahaa minasy syaithaanirrajiim." (I ask for protection for him and his descendants to (maintenance) You from the damned devil).

Andromeda kissed back Ayesha's belly. The look on the face of the woman who always messed with her mind in recent months because of changes in her attitude. Gently grasped Aisyah's hand and let her slowly catch it.

"Hopefully the time will be smooth and you both healthy and safe. I don't want to lose you both" Andromeda said.

Andromeda monitors the restaurant's activities through a cctv camera connected to his laptop. Although from home he can still know the state of his place of business.

"Aisha, why? Where's that sick?" andromeda panicked, but could still control himself.

"My stomach, Mom! It hurts so bad," Aisyah's ballad groaned in pain.

Andromeda held and stroked Ayesha's stomach. He recited a prayer so that the pain disappeared or lessened.

Walhamdulillahi Rabbil ‘lamn.

("O Allah, take care of my son as long as he is in the belly of my wife, so that he is, indeed You are the Most Healthy, there is no health except that of You, health undisturbed by disease. O Allah, who is in the belly of my wife in a good image, establish in her heart the faith in You of Your Messenger. O God, get him out of my wife's belly at his birth easily and safely. O Allah, make it whole, perfect, reasonable, intelligent, knowledgeable, and charitable. O Allah, extend his age, so that his body, make it look good, and eloquently recite the hadith and the Qur’an the Great, with the blessing of Prophet Muhammad Shalallahu alaihi wasallam. Praise be to God, the Lord of all existence.")

"We're going to the hospital, now! Maybe you will give birth," said Andromeda invites Aisyah while carrying the body of the pregnant woman.

Aisyah, who had her hands tied to Andromeda's neck, occasionally grabbed her husband's hair if the wave of pain came. Even when Aisyah was seated in the passenger seat, she firmly gripped her husband's arm as if he did not want to escape.

"Take it easy on you Aisha. Everything's gonna be fine. Pray and ask God for ease in giving birth later" Andromeda said slowly and the woman complied.

During the journey, the two did not stop praying and reciting. Andromeda felt pity when she saw the condition of Aisyah who was about to give birth. His wife groaned, screamed, and broke into tears.

Fortunately the obstetrician was prepared for the birth today. The special room for the family of the hospital owner is now ready for use. 

"This is the sixth opening" said Dr. Sarah.

"So, when is my wife going to give birth?" ask Andromeda. 

Something that is clearly unquestionable. If panic strikes a weak person it can become strong, a smart person suddenly becomes stupid.

"Most likely today. We recommend that Ms. Aisyah take a walk in this room or around here, to help speed up the opening process" said Dr. Sarah with a thin smile.

"Why should my wife take a walk outside the room? What if Aisyah suddenly wants to give birth?" ask Andromeda again to the obstetrician .

A walk in the vvip room was chosen by Aisyah. He did just that to keep Andromeda quiet. Ever since he felt heartburn earlier, the man had become extremely chatty.

Will Aisyah and their baby survive? What about their husband and wife relationship? Divorced though? Wait for it to go, yeah!"
