Chapter 40 Welcome Baby Jun, Jay, and Justin

“Yungi, it's the 35th week right?” Mina who just came out of the bathroom asked Yungi. At that time, Yungi was in the middle room chatting with children about the movie they just watched. Pregnancy with more than one baby will usually be born at 37 weeks. 

“Iya,” replied Yungi while looking towards Mina who walked up to him. 

“Uhm, weird huh! I'm freckin' it! Call the hospital!” Mina spoke calmly. 

Another thing with Yungi and the children whose faces were instantly tense. They immediately panicked. Yungi grabbed Hpya and dialed the hospital number. Juna and Zen immediately ran to his parents' room and pulled out the briefcase and Yuna carried a fan and fanned her mother who began to moan slowly. They sat on the sofa and Mina began to catch her breath.  

Everyone understood that if Mina entered this stage, everything would be silent and it was like a deal. Don't make Mina upset or angry. Just follow his wishes. Therefore, the children silently fanned while Yungi quickly prepared the car. 

“Come!” said Yungi and Mina just nodded while adjusting her breath. Yungi pushed Mina into the car.  Just as he was about to get in the car, Tetiba Mina growled and squeezed Yungi's hand as hard as she could. Both of them screamed in pain. One is due to contraction and the other is due to squeezing. The children watching behind the door along with Mbak Ade and Mbak Jun just grimaced, coming to feel. 

The panic moved into a delivery room and a hospital waiting room. Old man Mina went back and forth with a face filled with anxiety. Several times Yungi's parents also video call them and ask for news. Several times the nurses seemed busy, going back and forth to the room until finally the doctor came. She smiled at her Papa Mina and then entered the delivery room. 

“Let's see!” said the doctor while putting on gloves and checking Mina's bottom. Mina did not respond. He just kept breathing. His body was covered in sweat and Yungi greeted him quietly. 

“This is the quietest labor! Uh, but Zen used to be like this, Min!” the doctor deliberately fished for Mina to let out her emotions. It's much better than holding it. Mina ignored. He continues to focus on his activities. 

Mina and Yungi realized giving birth to three normally fraught with risks, bleeding and swelling of the uterus and fatigue were the main factors that put the mother's life at risk. Yungi had repeatedly persuaded her to give birth by Caesarean section alone. They even fought this battle. However, Mina remained on her decision, giving birth in a normal way because she was confident she could do it. 

“OK, it's ready,” said the doctor and before long Mina pushed hard and one baby came out and heard one cry. The nurse took it and took care of it. 

Mina took another breath.

“He doesn't want to go out yet,” moans Mina. Her tears wet her cheeks. 

“Come, Jay, Mother please,” whimpered Mina. The first child was named Jun, the second Jay and the third Justin. That's what the kids say. 

“Doctor!” Yungi looked towards the doctor as he became more and more worried. 

Doctor smile. He put one hand into the bottom of Mina fix Jay's position to be ready to slide and after the doctor's hand out, heartburn is so tight felt by Mina and she is ready to push again. Jay came out and just three seconds apart Justin also went straight out, as if impatiently following his brother.

All three babies cry at the same time. Mina and Yungi were crying too. 

The three babies were kept on Mina's stomach in the face down position and Mina immediately hugged her. 

“Hei, baby. Hi.” Mina watered with eyes that did not stop shedding tears. 

Justin slowly went forward looking for his mother's milk, followed by Jun, then Jay, after Justin released her. 

“Woah! The youngest is apparently a tough fighter huh!” doctor smile. 

“Congratulations Yungi, Mina,” says the doctor while looking at Yungi and Mina alternately.

Mina just smiled. He could not hold back his tears. 

“Min, thank you,” lirih Yungi while also crying. He kissed Mina's forehead and cheeks. 

“I'm going to sleep,” Mina. 

“Do not first!” said doctor. The blood is quite a lot and the doctors are still cleaning it. Mina had to be conscious in order for her condition to stabilize. 

“I'm not strong,” said Mina.

“No, you are strong. Just five minutes. Hold yes!” sahut doctor.

“You chat with his wife,” cried the doctor to Yungi who panicked but did nothing.

“Ah yes, okay!” yungi said and started chattering anything. Mina laughed a few times. The baby has been taken by the nurse to be taken care of as it should be. 

“OK, can sleep now,” says doctor.

Mina holds Yungi's hand while closing her eyes. As soon as Mina closed her eyes, Yungi immediately cried. Not because of sadness but happiness. Waiting for a wife to give birth is the first experience of her life. Now he knows something. How powerful was Mina to replace her waiting for Erika through this process and how could Erika go through this? No matter Erika gave birth by caesarean, whose name took out a mini-human from the belly of a woman it was a really big, exhausting, terrible thing but at the same time happy. 

Now Yungi thinks that women are the real heroes and then he thinks he will love Mina even more. He would apologize to his mother and love his mother as well and one day if he met Erika, he would apologize as well as thank her for many things. He regretted having considered the women who used to come to him asking to make love to him as just an object of empowerment. He promised, he would not do that again and the rest of his life would only be spent atoning for his mistakes by being a better person, being a good husband, father, and son. 

“No, we thank you for giving us cute grandkids. Please take care of Mina for us,” said Mama Mina. They hugged. 

“Still, Mah. Yes, I must take care of Mina, Mah,” said Yungi. 

“Still, Pah!” said Yungi while hugging his father-in-law.

“Fuck!” screaming children run with face sumringah towards Yungi who is still talking to his in-laws. 

“Uuh!” Yungi was overwhelmed by the strong embrace of his three children. Sesil standing behind him just smiled. 

“Congratulations Sis!” said Sesil while smiling. 

“Still, Sil!” answer Yungi.

“Sip. The children are eager to see their younger siblings and their mother too. So, Sesil bring it here,” explained Sesil.

“Yes, ga nothing. Thanks ya!” yungi answered while holding Yuna.

“Pah, where are Justin, Jay, and Jun. We want to see!” Juna looked at Yungi.

“Iya, come!” yungi said and they took their three children to the room where their three sisters were cared for. 

“We can't go inside. But can see from here,” said Yungi and pointed at the three babies who were being incubated. 

“Oh, waw!” The three children looked at the three babies with admiration. Their eyes sparkle. 

“They are so cute!” said Zen. Eyes glazed. Yungi smiled and stroked the soft Zen head.

“They're our sisters. Hahaha!” Juna laughed happily. There is contentment in it. 

“When can they go home, Pah?” yuna asked who also looked very anxious when she saw their baby sisters. 

“Maybe two weeks away.” Yungi.

“Oooh long time ago!” lirih. Their faces look sad.

“That's because they were born early, so they have to be checked on their health. If the doctor says they are ready to go home, even before two weeks, they will be allowed to go home.” Yungi. 

“That's yes!” The tone of the children is still sad.

“Hey, but you can come here every day with Papah, right?” Yungi.

“Yes, Pah!” they seemed to be happy again. 

“What now can we see Mother?” ask Yuna. 

“Yuna misses Mom,” she continued.

“Oh, Baby! Sure oes. But I'm sleeping now. She breaks due to fatigue.” Yungi looked at Yuna gently.

“Pah, we just want to see Mom kiss mom and go home. Can?” ask Zen.

“Iya, we want to thank you for giving birth to our sisters,” said Juna. 

Yungi looked at his three children alternately while thinking.

“Papah ask nurse first yes?” Yungi. 

The three children nodded with smiles and said thank you.
