The Passion of the Segara
Eps. #43 Two Red Lines

Genta had returned to the city, his arrival was immediately greeted with questions tiled by Arkha

"Genta, how's Pearl doing, is she okay there?" ask Arkha. He was very impatient to know the news of his beloved.

"Miss Pearl send greetings to you, Boss," said Genta.

"I also miss you so much, my Mutiar," Arkha's inner.

Hearing the longing greetings that Pearl entrusted to him through Genta, making a happy smile just glimpsed on his lips, imagining the innocent face of Pearl made his longing even more stirring.

"Only, it looks like Miss Pearl is a bit unwell at the end of this, it seems like she is too tired to work," continued Genta.

"Ah, she must have been too good at her job, all this time I've always helped her, but now she has to do all her own work." Arkha grumbling.

"Then did he ask me that kind of question, Genta?" ask Arkha again.

"Oh that's for sure, Boss!" sahut Genta.

"But don't call me Genta if I'm not good at lying" Genta said confidently.

Arkha only raised one end of his lips to hear Genta's statement, but he was very confident that Genta could definitely find a reason to answer all the things Pearl asked about him.

"Ok, next week you should go to the island again, Genta. I'll give them more money" Arkha said.

"You better not give too much money to Miss Pearl first, Boss! he'll be even more suspicious of where Segara can get that easy money!" sangkal Genta, he strongly disagreed if Arkha left a lot of money for Pearl because it would make it difficult for him to find a reason again if Pearl asked him.

"If I don't give him a lot of money, that means Pearl will continue to get tired of working. Do you think I can let him sweat and live hard there!" arkha protest defended his opinion.

"It's not so, boss! yesterday you gave him that much he was very suspicious, especially if you add it again, surely Miss Pearl will be more suspicious of where you can get that much money in a short time." tampik Genta remained steadfast with his thoughts.

Arkha only shook his head at Genta's rebuttal, his heart also confirming what his trusted assistant had said.

"Yes, now you can go, Genta!" arkha said as she raised her hand gesturing for Genta to come out of her apartment.

Arkha leaned his back on the back of the sofa, the shadow of the Pearl flashed so clearly in his mind.

"Pearl, I hope you're always healthy there, baby! I miss you!" Arkha continued to bathe with a smile still lingering on his lips. The longing was growing in his soul,

Day after day goes very slowly for Pearls. Without Segara with him it was as if the clock ticked very slowly on that remote fishing island.

His health condition is also increasingly erratic, every morning he feels nausea and his appetite is also no so that his body looks thin and weak.

The next morning when Pearl had just woken up from her sleep, she rushed to the bathroom.

On his face was a trace of uneasiness and his heart skipped a beat as he looked at the pregnancy test kit in his hands, faintly faint he could see two red lines on the thing, he said, the longer the two red lines were visible the more clearly, which instantly made her clean tears drip down her cheeks. Whether happy or upset she is feeling, she must be feeling a little shocked to realize that she is currently positively pregnant.

Pearl returned to her room and sat on the edge of the bed rubbing her flat stomach, her tremor hand squeezing the pregnancy test device she had been holding.

"Bang Segara, I'm pregnant, Bang. There was a small country growing in my womb." he muttered with a happy smile, but there were still some sweet tears that also dripped from his eyes.

"But how will I share this happiness with you, Bang. While I don't know when you're going home" she continued to mutter.

There was a turmoil that also filled her heart when she realized that she was going to live her day with her belly that would get bigger while her husband was not with her. In addition, he also remembered that all this time he and Segara had not wanted to have a child, in his flexible mind there was a sense of worry if later Segara would be disappointed after knowing his pregnancy.

"Pearl, open the door, son!" there was a knock on the door and Imran called out to him.

Pearl wiped her cheeks to wipe away her tears and rushed to open the door of her room.

"How's the test, Ra? are you really pregnant?" imran asked with a hopeful smile.

"Positive, Sir!" replied the short Pearl while lowering her head hiding her tears.

"Good, thank God, you're finally going to be a grandfather!" imran girang. She was very happy when she found out that she would soon have a grandchild.

"Bang Segara doesn't want a child from me yet, sir! how about I tell him everything, I'm afraid he's disappointed, sir!" pearl said doubtfully.

"Don't think like that, Ra. Every married couple wants to have a child. It's God's gift, Ra. I'm sure if Segara knew you were pregnant, he would be very happy!" imran said with a smile and tried to dispel his daughter's doubts.

Without the Pearl noticing, the tears had trickled back down her cheeks, and for a moment, said Imran was able to make her feel calm.

"Today you don't have to go to the shop first, Ra. Just rest at home, keep the baby in your womb!" firmly Imran while stepping leaving the Pearl in his room. Pearl just nodded and closed the door again and then returned to lay her body on the bed. A happy smile was still on his lips.

"Bang Segara, soon you'll be a father, Bang."

Pearl again stroked elus stomach, he now seemed to be able to feel a new life is developing in his womb, the fruit of his love with the man he loved so much.

"Your father is struggling to find rupiah in the region, dear. You don't fuss, I'll always take care of you until you're born into the world."

The smile continued to expand on his face.
