Because of the dense events in the Air Force Environment both in the Dormitory where we live or at the air base, in order to welcome Independence Day.
Me and Mandala could only visit Mother Arin's house three days after our meeting at the Palace at that time.
We arrived at a house, in one of the Navy officers' compound.
"Baby, let's eat first. Your father's waiting inside the Mandala."
"Good Mother".
When we arrived at the dining room. I saw a man sitting quietly and elegantly. From his face was a resolute and authoritative figure.
But when he saw Mandala, and when Mandala kissed the back of his hand. That resolute face turned soft and gave off the aura of a loving father.
"Dad, how are you?"
The man hugged Mandala.
"I'm good, what about you? where's your wife?"
Mandala turned to me, I approached and kissed the back of her hand like a Mandala.
"These years have been busy at the United Nations, your people have been busy. Fortunately, I was able to go home this year. Last saw you at your wedding that time".
"Yes Dad, after the wedding I never saw my father and mother again."
"Let's eat first, after this you two are free to chat. I still have business with Mandala's wife. Come on, you two sit down".
"Good mother".
We also had dinner together. Characteristics of the soldiers, do not talk to each other when eating. Even though I know Mandala didn't apply it at home with me. But when dealing with seniors who have better experience of age, rank and position in the Force, inevitably Mandala must follow the existing rules.
After eating, Mandala had already moved from the dining table with her foster father. And I helped Mother Arin clean the dining table.
"Come, let's talk in the room. You brought me what I asked for that time?"
"Yes Mother".
I followed my mother to a room.
It turned out to be a work space that doubled into a small practice space.
"Sit down".
Mother Arin sat at her desk and asked me to sit in front of her.
Mother read seriously the medical record of my pregnancy. From my first miscarriage five years ago to my last one with Yasmine's doctor.
"lay there, I'll check on you for a second. Sorry, I'm not menstruating, right?"
"No mother".
"All right, wait a minute".
I saw Mother washing her hands, wearing new gloves approaching me.
"Lay relaxed".
I just nodded.
Mother did an ultrasound on my stomach. Researching for longer. I also watched the screen.
As a doctor, I only know the basic science of this gynecologist. So more or less I do not understand much about what is seen on the screen hehehehheh.
"Ega".
"Yes mother".
"Mother should examine the inside of your womanhood with tools, are you willing?".
"I mean mother, put into my female organs?".
Mother nodded
"It doesn't hurt, like it was during a relationship with your husband. It's just a small device, bigger than your husband".
I smiled at the mother's words.
"It is what Mother needs. I'm ready".
"Okey, you need to undress downstairs right now".
I followed all of Mother's instructions.
"Rilex yes.. Take a deep breath".
I felt something enter my female organs. The deeper the entry.
"Calculate, if it hurts to breathe. Don't look over here. I'll record it and show you the results."
I just nodded without making a sound, trying to regulate my breath and heart to beat more calmly.
Fifteen minutes later after the silence between me and Prof Arin.
"It's over, I'll pull it back. Relax yaa".
Again I just nodded.
"That's the bathroom, you can go there if you feel uncomfortable".
I also went to the bathroom that was appointed by the mother.
I felt more comfortable after I cleaned and dried with the wipes in the bathroom.
Mother Arin again asked me to sit in front of him.
"Well, if you want me to help you, then you have to follow the program I created and comply with".
"Yes mother.".
"In addition, I also submitted three conditions to you before starting this program".
I listened to Mother Arin seriously.
"One, don't stress. Don't be the one who always thinks strangely".
I smiled shyly. Mother Arin apparently knows that I like to meet the Black and White in my mind.
"Two, eat a healthy diet. You doctor, time can't tell which foods are healthy and which aren't".
I smile again embarrassed.
I do prefer to buy ready-to-eat food than I bother cooking π
Often Mandalas who take a lot of initiatives to cook for me.
"Third, stop working because the program can't keep up with your busy work hours that make you tired".
This time I was silent without expression.
Quit working??
"Only for one year.it is impossible for you to take a year off work. After a year, you can go back to work."
"I'll think of Mother".
I said slowly.
"It turns out that your desire to have children is no greater than your desire to work".
I was surprised by Mother Arin's words.
"It's not like that Mother."
I realized my mistake.
"All right, decide quickly. I'll be in Singapore for a month. If you want to hurry, visit me there. If not, wait another month".
"Good Mother."
I nodded slowly.
What if Mother Arin told Mandala that I work harder than pregnant.
Aaarrrgggghhhh I should have immediately agreed to stop working, so that Mother Arin immediately believed in me.
But let it be, it's all happened.
I already have a clinic in the area, I earn monthly income from the clinic. I also always receive Mandala's salary and income from Melky's company.
It should be enough for me not to think again if I want to get pregnant quickly.
But Mother Arin was too sudden to give me conditions, so I did not expect it at all.
We say goodbye to Daddy and Mommy Raise Mandala.
"How long has their child been dead?"
I asked Mandala when we were in the car.
"Eight years ago, a TNI plane crashed in the woods. Copilot that time was Rendy".
"You guys are so close?"
"We're a class, a class, although Dad's in the Navy, but Rendy chose the Air Force. We used to spend the night at Rendy's house on holiday".
I saw Mandala's face a little sad.
"We are like brothers, there is nothing I hide from him and so is Rendy. If when I met you Rendy was alive, she would have been the first to be happy for me".
I gently stroked Mandala's hand.
Come to feel the sadness of Mandala because I have felt sad in someone's stay.
"How was the examination with the Mother? what result?"
"Mother will go to Singapore first. After that I'll start the program"
I then looked at the Mandala..
I will not tell you now about the terms of Mother Arin.
After I make my resignation letter to the new Hospital I'll tell Mandala.
Yes, I've decided. That I'm gonna quit my job for a while until I get pregnant and give Mandala a baby.
