Jero's hand touched the hand of Mama Sinta. The woman who raised him with great affection. The woman who never revealed it to her biological children.
Jero remembers, the first time Papa Denny brought him to Jakarta. Jero, who was still traumatized by the accident, was afraid to meet strangers. But Mama Sinta stretched out her hand. Her pretty face is smiling. Jero remembered the loving look in his eyes that made him immediately run and hug Sinta's mother.
"Ma, I'm sorry Jero. Mama must be sick because of Jero too, right? Jero's relationship with Finky is over, ma. Jero will live right. Jero had succeeded in persuading Giani that she would become pregnant. Pray for Jero to succeed, right? Jero also wants to have children. Giani is ready to get pregnant." Jero kissed Sinta's mama's hand with wet eyes. He really loves this woman. Loved her so much. Suddenly, Jero felt the hand of Mama Sinta who was still in his grasp move.
"Mah.....!" Jero looked at his mother's face. The eyes are still tightly closed with breathing apparatus still attached.
"Did mom listen to Jero? Mama's gonna pray for Jero?" Jero was very happy. He kissed the hand again. "I'm sure mom heard. Thank you, ma."
Jero's time in his mother's care room is over. He came out, undressed the green clothes he was wearing, handed them to the nurse who was waiting.
Clara, who was sitting with Giani, looked at Jero as she saw Jero's smiling face.
"What's up, Jer?"
"Mama's hand moved earlier."
"Oh yeah? That nice. This morning when my father came in, my right leg moved. I hope this is a good sign." Clara said gladly followed Giani's smile.
Jero stared at his watch. "It's almost 5 o'clock. We're going to Susan's doctor's now?" Jero asked while looking at Giani.
"Giani's pregnant?" Ask Clara curiously. Dr. Susan is one of the senior doctors at this hospital. He's a very famous gynecologist. To be able to consult with him, one had to make an appointment one week in advance. Fortunately the Prayunata family was one of the shareholders in this hospital so that when this morning Jero contacted the hospital, Giani was given special services.
"Yet, mba. We just want a program." Jeronimo.
"Oh.great. Good luck, huh? I'd love to hug your grandchildren. I'm the same Dion has been, Finly and Aldo have been. So it's you and Giani." Clara was excited. Mama Sinta has been confiding in her about her longing to see Giani pregnant.
"Makasi, mba." Jero and Giani answered almost simultaneously.
The two then decided to head to the second floor, where Susan's doctor's room was located.
Dr. Susan is the deputy director of this hospital. She is a 51-year-old hijab-wearing woman. But still looks beautiful and fresh.
Jeronimo and Giani expressed their desire for Giani to become pregnant. Jero also said that Giani had been using pregnancy-preventing pills.
Susan's doctor asked Giani to go up to the patient's bed to be examined. He did the USG to see where Giani's womb was.
"When is the schedule coming?" Susan asked the doctor after she finished examining Giani.
"Maybe in about 4 or 5 days, doc." Giani.
"Then from tomorrow we will carry out fertility checks for both of you. I will also give medicine for uterine fertility for Giani. But I do believe that you two are a fertile, quality couple." Doctor Susan said with a smile.
"What time is it, Doc?" ask Giani. He has an appointment tomorrow with Alexa.
"Four 9 am is here. The results will come out a few days later."
Giani and Jero nodded together. The two left the doctor's office, Susan.
On the way home, the two of them were silent. Arriving home, Giani went straight to the kitchen. Wash his hands and prepare the ingredients for dinner. Giani wants to prepare food quickly because it is now 7 pm.
"What can I help you with?" Ask Jero who is already in the kitchen. The man simply opened his shoes and replaced them with home sandals. He had already opened his suit and shirt, narrating the black singlet.
"I cooked it not for long. Take a shower first."
"I want to help." Jero said he did not want to be denied.
"Then please clean the carrots and potatoes. I'm gonna clean the chicken."
Jero nodded. He immediately did what Giani said. His heart is happy, Giani is still in this house. Even though they don't talk much but cooking tonight makes Jero happy.
Finished cooking and dinner together, Giani washed the cookware and the meal they used while Jero cleaned the dining table, swept the floor and even mopped it. Giani was quite surprised to see Jero doing all that. Usually also Giani who did or if Giani did not have time, he will ask one of the household assistants from the house of Mama Sinta to come clean the house.
"Is there anything else I can do?" Jero asked as he had already kept the broom and mop floor tools.
"Gi!" Call Jero.
Giani. "What's up, brother?"
"You're going to sleep in the basement?"
Giani was silent for a moment. Then he spoke. "I'm just taking a shower downstairs. I'm gonna take a shower later, I'm gonna go upstairs." He said before entering his room.
Jero smiled happily. He checked all the windows and doors, then opened the garden lights. Usually Giani does all that. But this time Jero did.
Half an hour later, he finished his shower. But Giani has not yet come to his room. Jero's restless. He was afraid that Giani would not come to his room. Especially now that it's 10 p.m.
Shortly after, the door opened from the outside. Giani came in while holding his phone. He was wearing a pajama trouser suit. There was no longer a thin and open nightgown like the one she used to wear.
"Not sleeping, brother?" Giani asked as he stepped towards the bed.
"I'm waiting for you."
Jero who was sitting on the sofa, now stepped up and headed to the bed. He sat next to Giani who was still on the edge of the bed with his feet still touching the floor.
"I'm waiting for you to pray together." Jero said slowly but enough to make Giani surprised.
"Couldn't you pray by yourself?"
"We're still husband and wife, Gi. So we better pray together. Can you?"
"Who's the big brother leading you?"
Jero nodded. "We pray now?"
Giani nods. Giani's heart was touched. Especially when Jero grabbed his hands and held them tightly.
When Jero closed his eyes, Giani also closed his eyes.
"Lord, thank you for your blessing today. We want to sleep, Your love will protect us so that we can wake up tomorrow morning with a healthy body. Please heal mama Sinta. Give us a chance to realize the wishes of mama Sinta. Bless me and bless Giani so that we may be given offspring. Amen."
Jero opened his eyes. "From tonight on, I'll change, Gi. I will learn to get closer to God. Thank you for rebuilding my dead faith." Jero kissed Giani's hand which was still in his grasp.
"Good night, brother." Giani pulled his hand slowly and immediately laid his body, turning his back to Jero. He did not want Jero to see his tears that he had been struggling to hold. He doesn't know what he's feeling right now. Giani's confused. But his determination to part with Jero has not been shaken. Moreover, he had promised his brother to return to their home. Alexa is also very happy when she finds out that Giani will be staying with them again. Giani knows, so that his brother can forget Finly, then Giani must release himself from Jero. Stay away from all the Prayunata families. The affection that Giani has for his brother makes him close the door of his heart for good. Even for Jero who Giani believes has started to like it.
2 Hours had passed since Giani laid his body. He hasn't fallen asleep yet. He also knows that Jero who is beside him has not been able to sleep because Giani can feel the movement of Jero who seems anxious. Occasionally the man was heard taking a deep breath and exhaling it slowly. It seemed like he was trying to bring out the tightness that was in his heart.
Giani turned his body. "Sister, haven't slept?"
"I'm thinking about mom, Gi. It was so sad to see my mom still like that. I knew the one that made my mom sick was me. I'm really sorry I was in a relationship with Finly."
Giani touched Jero's cheek. "What happened is unlikely to come back, brother. What matters now is that you want to change and get back on the right track."
Jero held onto Giani's hand which was still touching his cheek. "Thank you, Gi. Thank you for reminding me to get back on the right track."
"Sleep, brother. Tomorrow we have to do a checkup. Tomorrow is also our turn to take care of Mama, right?" Giani pulled his hand. He turned back to Jero.
Silent.......
"Gi, can I hold you?"
Giani nods.
Jero immediately wrapped his hands around Giani's waist. He buried his face on Giani's back while inhaling the fragrant body of Giani. His agitated feeling became calm. Jero slowly closed his eyes. Just by hugging Giani, Jero got a good sleep.
Duh.kok my sad heart huh...
