EPS 51 BIRTH OF THE BABY
A disturbing night. Suddenly the weather changed. The full moon that was shining brightly at night suddenly turned dark. Black clouds appear to surround the sky above the hill Kethileng. The storm blew knocking down the trees. The birds fluttered around as if they were losing their way. The animals in the forest came out of their nests and ran aimlessly.
It feels like a powerful storm will sweep the hills of Kethileng and surrounding areas, including the Megapolitan area that is below. All the workers were terrified and chose not to get out of their bicycles. Security guards, mercenaries hired in the business district, were seen on alert. Megapolitan City's large office building also appears limp because the ground is shaking violently
At the bottom of Kumitir's joints, Ken Darsih who was solemnly meditating also opened his eyes. Like someone was tapping his heart, calling his name. Then his two eyes looked at the wild nature around him. Strong waves of water make the creatures of the inhabitants themselves frightened. The walls started falling and falling. Even the Kumitir water itself roiled violently and swirled in an uncertain direction.
“Miryam,” murmured. “Why did I suddenly connect with him?”
The girl suddenly felt uneasy. His eyes were wildly staring back and forth. Like someone told Ken Darsih that something was going on with his nemesis. But he doesn't know what. There was a very strong supernatural force enveloping Miryam's body, so that her inner eye could not penetrate it.
Anger began to rise in his heart.
There was a dilemma in his heart. His original intention was to finish his ascetic until the full moon was over and wait for Dandung to pick him up. But his desire was also so strong that he wanted to immediately complete his revenge with a woman who had a face and body similar to him. I won't let you live quietly, Miryam.
“If people say you are my mother, but I will not admit it. I was only in your womb for a few days. My mother is Daningrum,” whispered.
Slowly his body came out from within the joint, and watched for itself the turbulent surface of the palm. Falling trees and some parts of the land that suffered rifts. The last time she saw Kecipir's pedestal fall apart was when she saw the anger of her adoptive mother Nyai Nagabadra when she learned of her husband's affair.
Ken Darsih is getting curious. Finally he sat down on a large rock, then closed his eyes. He wanted to ask his lord, the Queen of the South Coast.
“What is going on Nyai Queen. Why is my heart so agitated?”
“That's what Darsih's inner bond is. Even if you don't admit it, but you'll still feel it.”
“What do you mean?”
“Tonight your sister will be born into the world. Baby covered in Tirtanala power, Geni Sawiji, the Gift of the Eye of God in the womb of your mother for five years. Candidates for knights who will be our enemies, the nation of jinn and demons.”
“What?”
Ken Darsih was surprised not to be a bitch. Will he have a new sister? Does that mean Miryam will have children? And the baby's been in it for five years? What do you mean when they were alive in Jalatunda?
“Hm, can't be left. I'll stop him! Thank you Nyai Queen!” said it.
Slowly from the tip of his head and all over his body came out red smoke. The smoke kept billowing longer and thicker. Covering the surface of the Kethileng hill, before flying freely into space. Like a cluster of moving clouds, the red color slowly covers the face of the moon. It dimmed its light, so that the landscape of the earth turned dark, while the face of the full moon of the night became as red as blood.

Miryam is waiting for the birth of her love for Santika. As predicted by Andika, the birth of a baby in the stomach of Miryam just waiting for the day. It's been more than nine months of Miryam's pregnancy, and now it's the fifteenth or middle of the month. Coinciding with the emergence of a full moon that often shows mystical things.
“Aduh why my stomach hurts so much,” said Miryam with a happy smile. “Am I going to give birth?”
She staggered closer to the glass box, where Santika's body was resting quietly. Ah, had Santika's brother known, their baby would have been born, he would have been very happy. She looked at her husband's face deeply. I didn't feel like both of his eyes were dewy.
“Auwh!” he screamed while reflexively holding his stomach.
His stomach feels more and more wrapped. Ah, it feels unbearable anymore. In the building where he lives, there is no one. Since checking it out two days ago, Andika had not yet visited him. While the santriwati who took care of her was coming home to see her sick mother. He refused when offered another maid.
I have to be strong, he said. The snyum still expands to decorate her face that is as beautiful as an angel. I don't need anyone to give birth to my own child, her mind again. Ah, he knew he had to fight on his own. Struggling to give birth to a baby baby that he contained beside the body of her husband who was stiffened.
“Kakang, only you will witness the birth of our son,”.
After kissing Santika's forehead, Miryam finally laid her body on the large bed provided for her. Both hands were holding on to both sides of the bed. Then in the deep breath, after that pressed the fetus in his womb. Slowly the baby in her womb moved out.
“Bismilbornrokhmanirrokhim. Hyang Jagad Dewa Batara, help me,” Miryam prayer whose beliefs are still mixed.
The birth of the baby is approaching. Miryam began to feel gentle movements inside her stomach. Apparently the baby was impatient to see the world. The movement is getting faster and faster. If there is a baby shaman or obstetrician who helps him will surely know baby Miryam is a very strong human being.
Miryam did not care about the atmosphere in her room that was slowly dimming. He also did not feel when the freezing cold suddenly ambushed the earth Ksatryan Santri. Even the light of the full moon, which had been bright, suddenly turned red, he did not notice. For him it is more important to think about the birth of his baby than anything at this time.
On top of the bed, Miryam endured her pain. His eyes were closed, and he bit his lower lip. She had to fight alone to give birth to the baby, only with her husband beside her. He laid his body as comfortable as possible. Again, his breath deep. Then his hand gripped the side of the bed while blowing his breath out loud.
Hugfts!
Oh.oaa...oaa..!
The cry of the baby screeching high broke the silence of the night. Repel the cluster of red clouds that cover the face of the moon. Returns its bright light to re-illuminate the world.
