When Love Should Determine
Chapter 125

Adhan magrib reverberated, calling souls who were tired after a day of struggling with the rigors of the world to find a mouthful of rice.

Larissa began to lose consciousness. His strength was drained from enduring the pain since last night. Hamzah patted his wife's cheek repeatedly to regain his consciousness. "Don't give up, Encus! you are a strong woman. Look at! our fight is one step away."

Larissa blinked, trying to stay awake. Forced doctors to take surgery on Larissa's birth canal before she completely lost consciousness, especially the position of the baby was also squashed in the birth canal, fearing her life would not be helped if left to drag on.

The next minute the contractions came back. The doctor encouraged me to go back. "Come, mom, spirit! A little more of his son was born. We'll help push the baby out."

Larissa took a lot of breath, gathered the remnants of energy and prepared to push back.

The doctor prepares in front of Larissa's birth canal, while the nurse stands beside her, preparing to push along. "Third count we start, ma'am!" said doctor.

The doctor began to count. "One...two...three....start!."

Larissa breathed as much air, and with all her energy she strained. "Huh......"

"Oeek..." The sound of the baby's cry broke, indicating he had been born into the world.

"Congratulations, ma'am!, your child was born safely without any shortage of one thing. The gender is male" the doctor said, showing her the baby's face.

Larissa is relieved, it turns out that the baby she contains is really a boy. Faintly he saw how handsome the face of the child, a happy smile was on his lips.

Amidst the sudden happiness of Larissa's phone reads, the name of the father-in-law is written on his screen. But the next second the phone even died because it ran out of power. "Ah stop! let me call you back later. Besides, right now I can't idle him" Larissa said in her heart.

The nurse took the baby out of the doctor's hand for cleaning. Hamzah followed behind on his orders.

While waiting for the baby to be cleaned, doctors began sewing Larissa's torn birth canal to save the baby.

The doctor prepared two injections, and without warning he injected them into Larissa, one in the thigh, and the other near the birth canal.

Larissa screamed loudly because she was not ready, it felt like she was sliced by a dagger, very sick.

The doctor ignored Larissa's screams and began sewing. He sticks a media needle and forms a special pattern to close the two torn parts.

Larissa grimaced with restraint as medical needles began to be stuck in the skin of her birth canal, occasionally she shortened as the thread was pulled firmly. "Dok, slow down a little" he said.

Instead of obeying Larissa's wishes, the doctor scolded her. "Patience, ma'am, this is also for the good of mother. After all, it's been injected with drugs, right! So it won't hurt too much."

"No pain in your nutmeg!" larissa groused in heart. It's true that doctors have injected dope, but still the pain is still felt. After all, it may not hurt when the thinnest and most sensitive parts of the body are pointed at with a needle. It was even more painful than being stabbed by thousands of knives.

The doctor continued to sew, Larissa back up. The doctor stopped his hand and again scolded him. "This mother can calm down? If you continue like this, then this will not be finished. Do you want your birth canal to be saggy? Later her husband even look for another woman because she is not satisfied with the shape of the mother."

"But it really hurts, Doc!"

"Here you go, ma'am, don't whine! It's not the first time you've given birth, is it?."

Being scolded like that of course Larissa was silent. There is no other option but to let the doctor complete the task. Trying to stay calm while enduring the pain even though it is very difficult.

After struggling with her pain during childbirth, it turned out that she still had to endure another pain. Now he still has to fight again. Yeah, true! struggling against his pain while being stitched up the birth canal.

"Yep, done!" say doctor at the end of the last stitch. Larissa breathed a sigh of relief. "Thank God, it's finally over."

The doctor just did the last task, cleaning the blood pooled under Larissa's body.

Deftly the doctor cleans the pool of blood and replaces the bedding with a new one. Occasionally Larissa idles her hips to make it easier for doctors to do their job.

Larissa pointed to the nightstand next to where she kept all her belongings, but the doctor could not find the item in question. Eventually Larissa got up and took it on her own.

Suddenly Larissa felt her head spinning violently, and her body collapsed because it was unable to support her weight. Fortunately the doctor caught her before her body actually touched the floor. "Be careful, mom! I shouldn't wake up yet."

"I'm going to grab a shirt, ma'am, but suddenly my head feels like it's spinning."

"That's because you just shed a lot of blood, so for now you can't wake up."

Unlike the previous labor that issued a lot of fluid, in labor this time, Larissa bleed more than before. The doctor thought he had bleeding

"Yes, let me help you find" he added.

The doctor also found a change of clothes for Larissa among the pile of things. And after meeting, he helped Larissa change clothes.

Slowly Larissa took off the clothes she was wearing and replaced them with new ones. Fortunately at that time the doctor who helped her delivery was both female, so she did not have to worry about doing it.

After all his duties the doctor passed away and let him rest.

After the departure of doctors Larissa revived her phone. And while charging her battery, Larissa dialed the father-in-law number back.

Compared to all families, only his father-in-law cared about him the most. Until he could not ignore it for too long when he knew he had contacted earlier.

"Hello, assalamualaikum" Larissa said when the phone was connected.

"Waalaikum salam. How are you doing now, son?" tanyanya direct.

From her tone Larissa could guess if at this time her father-in-law was very worried about her condition. Especially a few months ago Hamzah's sister gave birth by Caesarean section. Maybe he was afraid that Larissa would experience the same thing. Especially since last night he had not heard anything from her.

"Alhamdulillah, sir, the grandson of the father has been born safely. The gender is male" Larissa replied.

"Alhamdulillah!" said the voice across was full of relief.

"Is the operation or normal, son? How did you just tell me?" tanyanya back.

"That's perfectly normal, sir, even though it was full of struggle."

Larissa should be grateful, although she took almost a full day to successfully give birth to her child, but it was relatively faster than the first labor that lasted for three days and four nights.

"Oh yeah, I'm sorry I couldn't pick up the phone earlier, it just happened that the baby was just born."

"O that is, yes it is not pa pa pa, which is important you and your child are fine. Now where's your son? You want to see his face."

"Sorry, sir! But the baby's still the nurse, Mas Hamzah hasn't come back yet, maybe he hasn't finished cleaning it."

"O..ya already! Turn off the phone first, you take a break. I'll call again."

"Yes, sir!"

"Assalamualaik."

"Waalaikum salam." And the phone connection was cut off.

Larissa put her phone back on the nightstand and rested her tired body.
