To be the Second

To be the Second
In Jahili..


...“If Meyta hadn't come back, I would have been so happy to take care of Rara and Arka forever.”...


Anna was silent for a moment. The woman was shocked at the content of her mind. Anna shook her head tightly.


“I'm sorry God, I didn't mean it that way. Please heal Meyta. Children must feel sad if their mother is constantly sick,” he said.


However, it seems that the universe supports the do'a that Anna accidentally proposes.


The higher sugar levels, making the wound on Meyta's leg does not dry out. In fact, after two weeks post-surgery, the wound on the woman's leg gave off an unpleasant smell. A second operation was performed.


Even after the second operation, the woman's legs did not improve. The doctor also suggested amputation of the woman's leg.


“What no other way, Doc. My wife would definitely not want her leg amputated,” Wirra said as doctors asked the man into her room.


“The wounds at Bu Meyta's feet continue to rot, sir. If not amputated immediately, we are afraid that the decay will continue to seep until we have to cut the leg up to the groin.”


Wirra let out a long breath. The man was confused. He didn't know how to get the news to Meyta. Wirra also told his disquiet to his mother. Wirra hoped her biological mother could give her advice and make the unrest in her heart decrease.


However, of course Wirra won't get the mother thing. Instead of giving advice, the mother made fun of Meyta.


“Hahaha ... Feel it! That is the punishment for him! Tell the doctor, do not just cut his legs to the knees, times can get to the waist so that he does not carelessly sleep with the husband of people!”


After laughing at Meyta, Yulia decided to unilaterally cut off the phone call. Wirra could only sigh deeply.


Eventually Wirra decided to seek the opinion of Anna and her in-laws. When Meyta had just fallen asleep, Wirra left Meyta to a nurse at the hospital. The man will return to his residence to discuss the amputation with the in-laws.


Upon arriving there, Wirra asks Pearl to keep Arkana in her room. He did not want the child to be sad when he heard the conversation. When Pearl was in the room, Wirra invited his wife and in-laws to discuss in the living room.


“Meyta definitely won't want to be amputated. I know Mey.”'s habits


“But, if not amputated, Mey's leg condition will get worse, Mom. The doctor said that amputation was the only way because we were late in getting Mey to the hospital. We went to the hospital after his leg had a little decay,” Wirra explained.


The in-laws seemed to nod their heads. He doesn't want the child's life in danger. If doctors say amputation is the only way, then they should work on it.


“Then you sign the amputation approval letter, Wir,”, the elderly woman said.


“Mom sure Meyta wants amputated?”


“He doesn't need to know. We'll let Mey know after the postoperative recovery period. The doctor said, can be installed prosthetic legs right?”


Wirra nodded, “iya, Mom. We can order fake legs for Mey.”


“Then, just order the fake foot. So, after Mey recovers, we already have a solution for her.”


Wirra nodded her head again. The man agreed with the opinion of the in-laws. And so is Anna.


“You still want to help me take care of Rara and Arka, right, Nak?” ask the old lady to Anna.


“Of course, Mom. Anna was happy to be able to take care of Rara and Arka" replied Anna.


“But, this time, it looks like you have to take care of Rara and Arka for a long time. You don't mind, do you?”


“I also want to ask for help An,” Wirra said. Anna looked over and looked at her husband.


“Please tell Rara yes, An. I can't bear to pass this news on to Rara. She must be the one feeling the most sad.”


Anna breathed a heavy sigh. The woman could already imagine the sadness that the Pearl would feel when she found out that her mother's legs would be cut off.


“I will work hard so that Rara is not too sad,” wilted Anna. Wirra nodded her head and smiled faintly. The man said goodbye and rushed back to the hospital.


When Wirra just got into his car, with lightning fast, Pearl ran and got into the car.


“Rara?!”


Wirra was so shocked when Pearl suddenly sat next to her. “You want to come to the hospital?”


The pearl shook his head.


“Then?”


The pearl could not hold back her crying. “What's Mama's leg really going to cut, Pa?” tanyanya sobbing.


Wirra let out a heavy sigh. But he avoided this. He could not see the sadness in his daughter's eyes.


Wirra turned off the car she had started. The man changed positions and sat on the same bench as the Pearl. Wirra clutched tightly to the stepson.


“Rara just pray yes. Pray for the operation to be successful and mama quickly recover.”


The Pearl's sobs are getting heard. The teenage girl nodded her head.


“Papa ..can Rara ask one thing?”


“Bby darling," replied Wirra.


“What papa—” Pearls choked. The little girl seemed unable to continue her question.


Wirra further tightened her embrace, “let's just say dear. What do you want to ask?”


“Papa won't leave mom, right?” ask Pearl. The little girl was even sobbing. “If mama's feet are cut, papa still loves mama, right? Papa won't leave mama, will he?”


Wirra let out a long breath. The top of the child's head.


“Not going, baby. Papa will never leave mama,” promise Wirra. While saying thank you, Pearl kept crying in Wirra's arms.


“Already, papa wants to go back to the hospital. My mom is awake and looking for Papa. Papa is afraid mama is angry. You know for yourself, mama if angry very creepy,” said Wirra. The pearl laughed a little and nodded its head. The teenage girl finally let Wirra go to the hospital.


The date of the amputation was finally determined. Wirra asked the hospital to keep the matter a secret to Meyta at Wirra's request. The man wouldn't want Meyta to refuse surgery. Wirra did not want Meyta's leg condition to get worse.


Meyta was in the operating room for a long time. Wirra, Pearl and her grandmother waited right in front of the operating room. They're so worried. Not worrying about the operation process running smoothly or not. They were all more worried about Meyta's reaction when she learned one of her legs had been amputated.


And sure enough, their worries were evident. When the effects of the dope disappeared and Meyta realized that one of her legs only existed to the knee limit, the woman was hysterical.
