The Second Wife's Secret
Chapter 3 The Offer

Resa felt a little relieved, finally he could pay for the administration of treatment of his mother, now the woman in her 50s, got medical services. Infusion was installed on his wrist, I don't know how many injections as well, the drug that was injected by the nurse on the body of the woman who was still unconscious.

A nurse came near Resa. "I'm sorry, Miss Resa, which classroom do you choose, for further treatment?"

"The cheapest room, sus" said Resa.

"Well, in a moment, your mother will be transferred to room B10, number 102, third floor" the nurse said.

"Yes sus," said Resa, her voice, sounding so limp.

"One more time, Alvian's doctor asked you to see him" said the nurse.

Resa took so deep in her breath, she began to guess what Alvian doctor would talk to her about later. "Yes Sister, thank you." Resa immediately got up from her position, she stepped her feet towards the room of the Alvian doctor.

Doctor Alvian, a 35-year-old young doctor, the doctor who has always been in the habit of seeing Resa and her mother, but one month ago, Resa and Hayati did not come to see her again.

Tokkk tok!

Resa knocked on the doctor's door.

The ceklakkk!

A nurse opened the door of the doctor's office. "Please come in" said the nurse.

Resa carved a smile on her face, lowered her face slightly, she stepped her foot into the doctor's room.

"Good night, doc." Sapa Resa's.

"Good night, please sit." Doctor Alvian gestured with his hand, pointing at the chair in front of his desk.

Resa immediately pulled out one of the chairs, then sat there.

Doctor Alvian looked at me towards Resa, his hand thrusting something, towards resa. Resa immediately grabbed a large brown envelope, which Alvian's doctor had given her. His eyes glazed over as he looked at the report written on the paper he had taken from the large envelope earlier.

"Your mother must immediately undergo a surgical removal of the uterus, the operation that your mother underwent before, it was successful, but there are still cancer cells left, currently the cancer cells are growing," said doctor.

Resa just looked down, looked at the paper, but she didn't read it anymore, only tears kept dripping.

"Five years ago, your mother was diligent in treatment, why have you two years ago rarely come? Just come at a moment of urgency like this?" Ask doctor Alvian.

Resa could not answer, it was not the doctor's business about the family problems that befell him and his mother.

Doctor Alvian began to understand the difficulty of the girl, because from earlier only tears could be seen coming from the girl's eyes.

"My advice, talk to your family, even after this operation, your mother still needs other medical services" said the doctor.

Only Resa's breath was heard, she was unable to say or reply to the doctor's words, how she promised to have her mother's surgery, if money alone did not have it.

"Well, I'm done, you can go" said Alvian.

Resa stood up immediately. "Thank you doc, I'm sorry." He said, he immediately left the doctor's room.

With such a claustrophobic feeling, Resa dragged her feet to keep going, she did not return to the ER. But he stepped into the garden of the Hospital, a lighted park bench, which adorned the garden, becoming Resa's choice to sit down, spilling the tightness in his heart.

He sat on the bench, raised his legs, his hands hugged his knees, and drowned his face resting on his knees. He shed his tears.

"Should I sell myself, for my mama's treatment? Where else would I look for this much money, to treat my mother, the wage of washing a year would not be enough to pay all the medical expenses of my mother," he said, mixed with his sobbing.

Unbeknownst to Resa, there was a woman who was the same age as her mother, sitting on a park bench, which was not too far away from her current position. The woman briefly heard Resa's sobbing. He stepped closer to Resa, while Resa was unaware that someone else was approaching her.

"Why you?" Sweepings.

Resa straightened her face, as she felt a hand land on her shoulder. Resa immediately wiped away her tears. "It's okay, madam." Resa tried to cover up her pain

The woman smiled, rightly guessed, this girl had a pretty face. "Sorry, I just heard a bit of your sobbing, why are you thinking of selling yourself? What's your problem? Maybe we can help each other." The woman continued to carve a smile on her face. He immediately sat down beside Resa.

Resa was still silent, she was confused, how is it possible to tell a story with a foreign woman, who is now sitting next to her.

"My name is Ramida, what's your name?" Ask the woman.

"My name, Moresa, I'm called Resa."

"Resa, sometimes meetings, partings and so on, are God-ordained, is our meeting one of destiny? So we can help each other?"

Resa is still tight.

"Tell me what's your problem, hear your sobbing, it doesn't feel like an easy matter, want to share it with me? Even if I can't help later, who knows I can help you find a solution to your problem" Ramida said.

Resa steadied the heart, to tell what problems befell him. "Actually mama has long had cancer, all this time mama always undergo treatment, but the last five years, mama's treatment is not maximal, let alone the last year, for painkillers only, for painkillers only, I couldn't afford it, but my mom needed it" Resa said.

Resa looked at the woman, saw the woman heard and listened to her story. Resa continues his story.

"Because of her illness, my mother married my father to our maid, but instead of helping me to make my father happy, she kept us out of the house. She doesn't want to share her husband with her mom. After being evicted, my mother and I moved into a small contract. One year we suffered, apparently our pain is still lacking, now my mother must be demanded to undergo surgery," complained Resa.

"You sure you want to sell yourself, for your mother's treatment?" Ask Ramida.

"If my mother's recovery is the main thing to me, I don't care about me." Answer Resa.

The woman continued to look at Resa, she admired the facial line that Resa had.

Beautiful woman, it is appropriate to give birth to the successor of our family. Ramida's grouse of heart.

"If you have surgery, it's not finished, you have to undergo a series of other treatments" Resa continued.

"I can help you, but you have to help me too."

"What kind of help does the Madam want with me?"

"Being my son's second wife, but maybe forever you're just an undisclosed second wife, it's not a contract marriage, if my son wants to let you go, then you can get out of this bond, you know, if he does not want to let you go, then forever you will be the second wife who is kept secret" said Ramida.

Resa pecked, his face seemed shocked to hear the offer that Ramida gave him. How can any woman want to get married, but if her marriage becomes second, and kept secret. How is his future.

"If you want, I'll guarantee your mother's life, guarantee her ongoing treatment, you just have to tell your mother that you're working as a babysitter, looking after an ex-baby, sorry ... I mean look after my in-laws."

"It's not just that. I'll give your mother a home, give you money, just can't give you marital status in the eyes of the public. You also cannot delay pregnancy, if our daughter-in-law does not refuse to become pregnant, I will not ask my son to remarry."

Resa looked at Ramida's face, the woman's face was really serious about her offer.

"If you're willing, then your mother's surgery will be done soon, think Miss. But before that, I want to ensure your health first. If you agree, meet me in front of this Hospital lab." Ramida gently patted Resa's shoulder, she immediately left the park.

Resa pecked, his eyes constantly staring at the woman's back, which was getting away from the sight of her eyes.

"Is this karma because I hate papa's second wife so much? Now that I'm cornered, only this choice can help you."

Tears again wet Resa's cheeks that are so white and smooth.

"Is this a punishment for me? I'm even more despicable than that witch, the witch became papa's second wife at my mother's blessing, but me? I'll be the second wife in secret. Unfortunately my fate." Resa immediately stepped foot towards the ER.
