The Regret of the Wife

The Regret of the Wife
Lia Containing


The wise say 'try without prayer is arrogant and prayer without effort is a lie'. Yes, we hear that phrase a lot around us. The two complement each other in order to fulfill their own expectations. Therefore, as a religious people, praying must be accompanied by faith.


Located in the residence of Mr. Mamat. Lia held a dinner to celebrate her 21st birthday. To enliven the atmosphere he also invited his fellow courses including Winda. The event was very lively and many of his colleagues congratulated Lia. It was a happy day for Lia where it was a day of gifts.


In the evening, followed by a family event. Lia chose to chew along with her father and mother. When you want to eat your favorite food is fried chicken. Suddenly his stomach felt nauseous.


Huiks..huiks... Again the nausea came back. Worse, he could not continue the dinner with his parents.


Ms Sulastri who knew the condition of her son who was not feeling well took the initiative to buy ulcer medicine to a nearby stall. While Mr. Mamat gave warm water and poured eucalyptus oil to Lia to be rubbed into his stomach and chest.


On the way back home, Ms. Sulastri met with Agus. Momentarily, Bu Sulastri's steps slowed down and stopped right in front of Agus. Although the divorce lawsuit has been filed by the Lia family. However, Agus still wanted to meet with Lia. He asked Ms Sulastri for permission to meet her. Of course Agus still has the right to meet his wife. The divorce has not been processed by the court. Automatically, the status of Agus is still a husband for Lia and vice versa.


Upon returning from the stall, Bu Sulastri walked towards the main door of his house followed by the steps of Agus who followed him from behind. Before entering the house, Ms. Sulastri did not forget to say hello.


"Assalamualaik."


"Wa'alaikum salam." replied Mr. Mamat and opened the door.


"Mom, Lia is getting worse. The nausea hasn't stopped. He's been vomiting." Obviously Mr. Mamat.


"Keep, now where's Lia sir? I want to give you medicine first who knows this medicine works sir. It just so happened that the medicine from the clinic back then was up." Ms. Sulastri explained.


"Sir, I met Agus." Strike Miss Sulastri slowly.


"Keep." said Mr. Mamat briefly.


"Keep mom allows."


"Yes sir."


"Where is Agus now?" ask Mr. Mamat.


Ms. Sulastri approached Agus and brought him in front of Mr. Mamat.


"Sir, if I may ask permission to meet Lia." Agus exclaimed with a gesture mode.


"Can't." Said Mr. Mamat by crossing his hands.


"Sir, have pity on Agus. Let him meet Lia. Status he's still our son-in-law sir." Ms. Sulastri gave advice.


"No yes No." Said Mr. Mamat insisting. They are busy arguing. There was a sound coming from Lia's room. Someone is trying to call for help.


Hearing that, they stopped arguing and hurried away towards the direction of the voice. Agus followed the two from behind.


"Astagfirullah, Lia." Say both at the same time. They all panicked to see Lia lying on the floor unconscious.


As a husband and daughter-in-law, he helped bring Lia to check into the nearest clinic. Arriving at the Clinic, the doctor examined Lia carefully and thoroughly. He found out the reason for the nausea Lia was suffering from at this time. Then, the doctor ordered a nurse to take blood for testing to the laboratory.


An hour passed, the results of the laboratory tests had come out. They were all called into a special doctor's room. There, they were explained by the doctor that the nausea suffered by Lia is a natural thing for women who are pregnant. Everyone was spontaneously surprised to hear that. After giving an explanation, the doctor congratulated everyone on their daughter's pregnancy.
