The Sweetest Harsh
Episode-5 Pain

Alfa came home from her job off the island one day later. The man decided to finish his duties first, so that when at home, even though his cut was reduced, he could enjoy his rest and leisure time quietly without being haunted by the completion of the work.

“What did you talk to Mama about yesterday? Does he say something that doesn't make you uncomfortable?" Alfa sat leisurely on the sofa, enjoying the peaceful atmosphere in her heart with her hands continuously stroking the head of Tiara that was leaning on her arms. The television was left to light up just looking at those who were busy alone.

“Not-not what kind?” Tiara looked up, questioning something that she could actually answer, but, it was not up to the heart to speak.

“To have you do excessive things? Taking herbs, medicines or doing a pregnancy program?”

Tiara fell silent.

She was with Helmia on a casual talk show yesterday. But as usual, her mother-in-law asked her to speak in an intimidating tone, so that, like being hypnotized, what her mother said, she complied.

“Iya?” Alfa answered her question with her own question because Tiara was only silent and the possibility of the answer was indeed true as expected.

“That's because he wanted to show me his affection. Nothing is wrong, right?”

“Is there anything Mama gave you?” The man still continued to pursue the question, because he felt his patience was running low.

Tiara straightened her sitting position and tilted her legs on the sofa while facing the Alpha. “Why do you look so worried that you introgasiku like that. Hm?” His chin was raised with the support of his right hand.

“I'm afraid mama forced you to make you feel bad. Did Mama give you anything? Do not consume it first. We'll consult with Dr. Jeni. We don't know right after all, do we? your body condition with the medicine you're taking?” Alfa leaned forward to grab the cup of coffee that was on the table, then sipped it little by little as if giving a pause before returning to say, “I've booked an appointment with Doctor Jeni this afternoon. We will hold a consultation.”

The Alpha speech made Tiara stiffen and panic. His body began to be fed by a sense of heat that burned his chest cavity. It is true that he should not take the drug carelessly without looking at the dose first and what side effects he will likely feel.

Thinking about it made Tiara's head feel more throbbing, coupled with anxiety because of regret for his actions that he could not pull back.

The day before Helmia arrived, Tiara was ordered by her mother-in-law to take one of the fertilizers she was carrying after they finished eating lunch and dinner. This morning, he drank it again after breakfast.

So, is this the cause of the dizziness in the head that has been afflicting him since this morning?

Tiara massaged the base of her nose briefly while closing her eyes to slightly expel the discomfort lodged there, trying to neutralize the pain that sometimes appears and sometimes disappears unexpectedly.

“You why Tiara?” Alfa directly faced her body and frowned. Tiara looked a little pale in taste. His wife closed her eyes and frowned deeply as if she was feeling pain and holding it back.

“Tiara?” Deuteronomy.

“My head was dizzy and my stomach felt strange," she softened as she slammed down on the back of the sofa, with her eyes slightly open.

“You sick? Ah, did you wait too long for me?” Alfa also leaned back while continuing to look at his wife's face.

“By-by?” Tiara turned her head.

“Yes. You said it yourself yesterday, he said it was me who was tired and just slept on the bed. Right?”

Tiara smacked her hand into the chest of the Alpha field which she immediately responded with a contrived pained groan. The woman felt ashamed and ashamed. Maybe her husband was teasing her amid the discomfort that was dominating her.

“Come. I'll give you those gifts. Maybe it can ease your pain a little. Know it? Sports with your husband can relax you and cure dizziness in the head," he said with a annoying sneer.

Alfa got up from her seat and was about to step up. However, Tiara only smiled with one lip and did not respond to the implied invitation of the man who had stood up.

“Good. You don't want to be there?” Alfa raised her gaze towards the room.

“Then, here alone,” continued with a body that moved quickly to make Tiara scream small because suddenly Alfa was already face down on it with a seductive smile.

******

“Still sick?” Alfa shook her fingers at Tiara's two hands. After leaving earlier, Tiara was just according to his invitation and did not say much.

“Can we just go home? Queue is still long, right?” Tiara did not answer the man's question as she had expected to make Alfa cluck.

“Antar I came home Al ...” Alpha who caught something that was getting wrong turned his head to the left and to the right looking at the queue in poly next door and decided to take his wife to the general practitioner who did not have to wait longtime. Decided to postpone their meeting with Doctor Jeni. When Tiara stood up, however, the woman did not step in with him. It made Alfa frown and pay attention to Tiara's eyes intently. Only then did the man realize that his wife was staring at him anyway, but, with a blurred look.

“My head ... hurts,” he said getting smoother and his body collapsed losing consciousness.

The people who happened to be in one room were suddenly excited. Some of them ran for help and some of the others approached to help Alfa lift Tiara. However, in full force, Alfa carried her own wife, then walked towards the empty bed that happened to be located in the hallway not far from her.

Two nurses were seen approaching and together pushed her bed into the check room. Door closing. Make the patient and the officer on guard calm down and sit in their original position.

Tiara fell asleep quietly. Eyes closed. His face showed no pain like that. But his face was still pale. Alfa waited on him in a daze. He felt irritated not playing until he ruffled his hair until it was not funny.

What the hell is going on? Was it true that Tiara had taken the medicine as she had expected? What better do he do? Should he talk to his mother? He knew his mother was possessive if she already had what she wanted. Didn't Mama think to check on Tiara first? After all, later the doctor himself will give the best for his wife. How worried is Mama with Tiara? Afraid that Tiara would face the same thing as her?

The sound of shoes entering the room made Alfa look back.

The two pairs of eyes that met the view were meeting each other for a moment before being able to recognize each other.

“Doctor Jeni?” Alfa stood up from her seat to welcome the arrival of the female doctor.

“Ah, Gheo?” After recognizing the face of the man in front of him.

Alpha nodded his head thinly. “Iya. it's me," she replied.

Doctor Jeni smiled kindly then and stepped foot towards the desk in the room.

The doctor called her by her little name. Jeni has known this boy in front of her even since he was in her mother's womb. His age is getting older turned out not to make him pangling, considering that he had not met Alfa for a long time.

“Why are you here? Don't you have a consultation with me?” he said with a surprised tone. Earlier, he got information from the guard nurse that there was a patient waiting in the public check room.

Alfa looked back to her back where Tiara was put to sleep. “My wife passed out in the waiting room.”

Doctor Jeni then pointed with one hand towards the chair in front of her, allowing Alfa to sit down.

“Sit down," he ordered at the same time as himself who was also sitting behind the table.

Alfa sits lethargic with her back leaning.

“What's up? Your wife is pregnant?”

“I don't know. Actually I'm here just going to consult for the pregnancy program, but, it looks like Mama preceded the step.”

“Mu? Preceding steps? Whatchu mean?" Jeni's forehead wrinkled at the ambiguous words of Alfa.

“Ya. mama seems to be in too much of a hurry for her wish to give Tiara a cure without my knowledge.”

Doctor Jeni seemed to think for a moment, digesting the speech of this already niece-like boy carefully and deducing the possibility that had occurred.

“Good. Let your wife be treated here first. I'll do a blood check later.”

Alfa nodded her head in frustration, then weakly replied, “Ya ...."
