Two weeks later ....

As per Hannah's request, I'll go to the doctor and check my uterus. Hannah managed to get a pretty good and professional obstetrician recommendation. Yes, that's according to the judgment of some people.

I want to appreciate Hanna who worked so hard. Therefore, I did not refuse and did not like my trip to the clinic this time. Somehow my heart felt empty, like an empty room without any furniture and other stuff filling.

Hannah has been staring at me ever since we left. I pretended not to see, I chose to look at the path that many people go through. Until the time came he rebuked me with his soft voice.

"You all right, Lora? Do we need to cancel our meeting this time? I'll reset the schedule for you if you can't. I'm not gonna force you." Said

I turned my face to her, "I'm fine. You're busy, I can't keep bothering you. I can't take a day off either, can I. Everyone has their schedule. Let's just get this over with quickly." I replied. I just said everything without thinking about it.

"Oh, ok." she answered briefly.

From the answer, I'm sure he's in a state of good faith. He would have been more careful knowing I was not feeling well. I know Hannah is anxious and agitated, because I'm going to take extreme measures.

In my mind, I'm sure I will. But I don't know why this heart hurts. This fetus, I did not expect his presence. To me, this fetus is a mistake and my inhibitor. My mind is narrow. Yeah, how else. I can no longer face the scorn.

If kuprtainakan. Just the shame I'll get. Whether it's from the neighbors around Hannah's house or my job. Especially my boss. What am I gonna say? what reason am I using? in my cover letter and identity card, my status is that someone is unmarried or unmarried. Which means I'm a woman without a husband. Then, if everyone knows I'm pregnant. What will they think?

Maybe I will not only get scorned, but also directly exiled. Those who are narrow-minded will definitely consider me a sampa woman that can be worn and thrown away.

Ah .. I think my head is going to explode. I can't think of anything anymore right now. Hope it's over soon, this is all I want.

I was so late in my mind. Until I didn't realize that Hana and I were in the clinic. To be exact, we were already in the waiting room. Waiting for the examination turn according to the Queue number.

"You want a drink first?" haggar Hannah.

"Yes" I replied.

Hannah gave me a bottle of mineral water that was opened. He would have wanted me to drink straight away, without any trouble opening the lid again.

"Thank you," I said.

Hannah smiled faintly at me, "Yes, the same." she replied.

I drank and drank the water in a bottle. I spent almost half the bottle. Hannah hastily takes over holding the bottle and closes the bottle back.

"If you want to go to the restroom, say so. I'll drive you right away" Hannah said.

I nodded my head slowly, "Yes" I replied.

We sat quietly and waited. About ten minutes later, a nurse came out of the room and called my name.

"Miss Flora Elvise, please." call her.

"Yes" I replied, standing with Hannah.

Hannah and I walked into the room. Inside the room, there was a beautiful female nurse and doctor. Although the age of the doctor in front of me was not young anymore, but his friendly smile made me comfortable. I feel pretty calm now.

"Hallo, good morning." he said to me and Hannah.

"Hallo doctor Patrick. How are you?" greet Hannah.

"Oh, Hello too. Good news. Hannah, you're growing more beautiful now. How old are you, son?" ask the doctor about Hannah.

"You could have been mocking, yeah. This year is twenty years old." replied Hannah.

"I never thought I'd see you again. You look so much like your late father, yes" said the doctor again.

"Thank you, doc. Oh, aye. This is my schoolmate in France. Called Flora. He's the one who's gonna do the check" Hannah said, introducing us.

"Oh, Hello. Nice to meet you." said the doctor to me.

"Hallo too, doc. Please help me." I replied.

"Yes, please sit down." she asked.

We also sat. Hannah and I looked at each other. Hannah smiled at me as if nothing was going to happen, or bad.

"So, please explain. What complaints have you come." asked the doctor.

I nodded my head. I began to tell her my reasons and also my intention to come to that place. At first, the doctor was shocked to hear my story. Even with not knowing the shame, I said the truth. If this is a fetus the result of a relationship outside of marriage. I also briefly explained the incident I called the mistake of one night to the doctor.

Hannah spoke up. He conveys what he wants. From Hannah's voice I caught for sure, she was completely unwilling and did not like me to throw this fetus away.

"alright. I will do the examination first. After that, you will easily make a decision. I'm actually very sorry if you're willing to abort the fetus in Your womb. Besides it harms your health, it will also affect the psychological. Your age is still very young, Miss. However, it all comes back to you who made the decision." explained the doctor.

"Yes, I understand." I replied.

I started to run a series of checks. I keep hoping it'll be gone soon and it's done here. However, what I think and what I want, deviates far from reality.

At the time of the examination, the doctor said that I was pregnant with twins. That means there's more than one foetus. When examined more closely, the doctor also said again the thing that made me and Hannah stunned.

"Congratulations, Miss. There are three growing fetuses in your womb. Jannin's condition is healthy and normal" the doctor told him and explained.

My heart was beating fast. Not just one or two children, but three. I'll have no kids at once. It's like a dream, but it's also very real to me.

Hearing that, Hannah immediately cried. I didn't know I had to interpret Hannah's tears as a happy expression or vice versa.

When I found out I was pregnant with twins. I don't know why my mind changed. I wondered what I would be with my three children.

"You're still gonna do that. The lora? please don't. I want to be the foster mother of your three children. It's okay, you can get busy working and let me take care of her" Hannah said.

I looked at Hannah, her sincerity is irreplaceable. I also smiled and said I wanted to take care of this fetus that I had until later they grew up.

"If so, I will give birth and raise them. Thank you for helping me, Hannah. I'm sorry." I said.

All of a sudden, my tears were unstoppable. I was filled with deep regret. I immediately hugged Hannah. I repeatedly apologized to him. Hannah welcomed my embrace warmly.

"Let's take care and raise it together. Don't worry, I'm always by your side and on your side" Hannah said sobbing.

Really, I feel ashamed. I feel stupid because I'm narrow-minded. I was blinded by my selfishness.
