“How are you?” Doctor Jeni greeted as she waited for Tiara to lie down and prepare for the ultrasound examination.
“I feel good and healthy,” she replied with a smile.
“Good.” The doctor then began to concentrate on the monitor screen in front of him and carefully observe the display that can only be read by him with the right hand that moves the transducer.
Alfa, who was sitting beside the bed where Tiara lay, clasped his wife's fingers tightly. Likewise the woman who also linked her grip. Strengthen each other in silence. Waiting for the results of the examination being observed by the doctor in front of them with happiness and anxiety that clashed with each other in the heart.
“No changes yet.” The woman in white clothes opened a voice that immediately made the husband and wife's heartbeat pumped quickly. “Tiara, your baby is in a breech position, as I worried about the previous meeting,” he said by folding his lips and still continuing to pay attention to the screen with a wrinkled face. “Looks like you should get ready for a cesar surgical procedure.”
The two pairs of shocked eyes threw one another a glance. I looked at each one with the same surprise. Alfa's heart beat faster, as well as Tiara who showed her hardness with the shoots that are getting cold.
“The fetal head position is still on top. Can you see this?” Jeni flicked her fingers on the keyboard to perform a series of typing commands, and now, it can be clearly seen that their baby was still in the state they were when they saw her two months ago. “At normal circumstances, it should be at this gestational age, the position of the baby's head is ready to be below, rotating automatically to prepare for his birth,” he explained.
“What is the reason my baby can be in such a breech? Is it dangerous for my wife and for her?” Alfa frowned with a nosebleed that she could not cover. The man occasionally looked at Tiara who did not take his eyes off the black sketches on the monitor screen that sometimes showed those abstract movements. Look at him with sadness.
“Your baby is wrapped around the umbilical cord, so he has trouble turning his body in time,”. “The condition of the baby that covers the umbilical cord is common and not all result in breech position, but, there are also those that can cause something like this,” he added.
“Then, what about his cervical cerclage procedure if Tiara has to undergo a cesarean section?” The man looked frustrated in his words. Leaning his back on the back of the chair he was sitting on.
“We will do the sewing thread removal before doing the surgical procedure,” he replied. “Tiara, do you often experience tightness in your stomach and breathing?” The doctor looked at Tiara.
The woman, who had been silent before, finally looked at the doctor and replied. “Iya. Upper abdomen ... feels full,” ringisnya. “Is it because the position of the head is still above?” Unknowingly, Tiara touched her hand to her stomach, as if to reassure what she was feeling.
“Can be said so,” he said. “Hemoglobin test results will be out in a moment. I hope you're not bored with the food menu I advised you on.” The doctor clapped his hands on Tiara's arms with a sympathetic look and nodded his head at the assistant who was preparing to wait on the sofa chair opposite the examination hall.
Tiara smiled. “Of course I'm not bored. I've been an extreme foodie since I was pregnant. The food prescribed by you I never miss every day,” he said with a smile and tidied back his revealing dress and sat back down.
The door that opened without a sound became the pause of his third conversation. A nurse who entered the room carrying a piece of paper was a major concern. After the woman in light blue put the paper on Jeni's desk, she immediately said goodbye with a wordless nod, feeling no need to mince words at her usual duties.
The doctor opened the folded sheet of paper and read it at a glance. “Good. Your hemoglobin is in a pretty normal state,” he said, not releasing his eyes from the white paper. “Preserve yes, may you always be healthy,” he concluded with a warm smile on his back there.
“Thank you.” Alfa then stood up and sighed Tiara, who was sitting on the edge of the bed, preparing to go home.

“Completed ..” The man smiled and tilted his body towards Tiara's stomach. Hugged his wife's back and kissed with intensity for so long with his eyes closed. Exposing all his affection that he was unable to say how great it was with words. “You heard father Nak's story?” Alfa kissed once more and opened her eyes. “Dad promised, will often tell you when you are born and grow up later,” he said.
Tiara stroked her husband's head. Gently rubbing her husband's hair with a full smile. He's happy. The woman felt a burst of joy that the man lavished on her son. His heart was flowing with no regard for what they were in the present condition, nor for all the threats and pains that would befall him when he would come in time to give birth. To be sure at this time, Tiara wants to go on like this, with the super man God sent to be her husband. Although he knew, the morning of tomorrow would lead him to the moment where he had to part temporarily with Alfa, letting the man carry out his final plan to free Helmia from the shackles of his hardened heart.
Alfa rose from her sleeping position, confirmed the position of the pillow and placed her head there. Lying down to his wife who is still in a sitting position. “Come.” The man spread out his hand, allowing his wife to lie down with his hand. Slowly, the woman moved closer and comforted herself by distancing a little of her stomach which was now filled. Tiara put her face right on Alfa's neck, kissing her with heat.
The man who got an injection of passion with his wife's attitude, closed his eyes for a moment. Feel the gelenyar that begins to creep on the body and sensitive parts. His sleeping position still lying on his back gave Tiara full access to kiss the niche of his neck.
The woman frowned to find Alfa who did not respond to anything. Just enjoy the touch with the heart that starts to flutter and eyes closed. “You why? Don't you want me anymore?” She shrieked in an annoyed tone and a frowning expression. In the days after the cervical procedure, the doctor did not allow them to reap pleasure as a married couple until the stitches were healed, but, only this time the man was able to hold it until a long time after his recovery not to touch it.
Alfa opened her eyes and turned to the side, then positioned her sleep facing the wife and grabbed the tiny body in the arms. “What are you talking about?” he said as he slowly rubbed Tiara's head. “I was trying my hardest to resist my desires and you asked me if I no longer wanted you?” the man's right hand led his wife's left hand to touch something that was in pain down there.
The man grinned. “You can feel it?”
Tiara pressed her face back to her husband's chest with a face of embarrassment that had turned completely red. “Why are you holding back?” whispered.
Alfa raised the woman's face until their sight met. “I'm afraid of hurting you.” The man kissed his wife's lips briefly. “It still looms in my head how the process of binding the uterus was done, although I dare not see anything at the doctor who was doing something to you, but, I'm really afraid that my treatment will make you uncomfortable later.”
The woman scrunched her forehead. Her heart was touched by the attention of her husband, whom she did not expect. Alfa worried about him more than she knew. And that makes him full and happy.
“I still don't understand why God created such a beautiful groove. However, complicated.” Alfa stared unblinkingly into the depths of Tiara's eyes. “A woman should go through a period of conception and conceive happily, even though there are times of tormenting morning sickness like you experienced some time ago, but you are happy right?” He asked by rubbing Tiara's cheeks gently. “However, why should God give a test with the birth process with life as a bet? It's the same as giving unparalleled joy with excruciating pain at a time isn't it?” The man frowned with an indecipherable expression.
“Because that's what it's like. Men need not worry because we women expect it to happen. The pain can not be compared with any pain, but, believe me, we are very much looking forward to it,” she also touched the hand on the cheek of her husband. “The only pain I adore for her arrival is the pain when I can give birth to my baby safely, no matter how the process is.” Tiara shifted her eye polishes, not wanting the clear liquid from her eyes to melt. Recalling Doctor Jeni's words about her having to give birth by cesarean section.
Alfa kissed Tiara's lips again, making the woman look back at her. “I really appreciate your hard work as a mom-to-be. No matter how small, including your growing tiredness. I don't care how the birth of our child will be, for sure, you and our child are safe and sound.”.
Tiara nodded her head with a smile.
“So ... You want it?” seductive Alpha with an impatient attitude, reminding them of the initial topic of conversation. The man kissed his wife's lips with passion. Tuck the tongue between Tiara's open lips, deepening their connection.
Half-gasping, the woman forcibly removed her lips, only to answer a rhetorical question that she did not need to answer again with a speech. “Ya .. I want to,” he replied shamelessly again. Looking at the face of Alfa and her husband's two eyes that had been filled with a thirst for satisfaction.
Tiara again clenched Alfa's red lips, continuing the pleasant second after second that would end in their unbearable release.
