40 Days

Chapter 4

'' Dinah..Din..where are you ? '' Maura called her friend who had left earlier and had not returned.

A black shadow flashed in front of his bed, Maura tried to get up to observe who the figure was there.

'' Is that you Din ? '' sahut Maura, now he began to wonder about the state of the Hospital. He felt so lonely, it was impossible if only his self was in care but the situation was very quiet as if no one was in the ward.

No matter how quiet the state of the Hospital at least there are some patients or people waiting for their families.

Family ? Maura only realized that there is currently no family coming, if Jeni has been picked up by her family then why her parents did not come too.

It's impossible if they're not told.

'' Hiks.hiks.'' a crying voice was heard in the corner of the room. Maura's body jolted when she heard that heartbreaking cry again. Even this time, there was someone passing by running in front of her. Behind the slightly open curtains.

It was like a child but he could not see clearly because it was quite dark.

Maura's body trembled even more when she heard the sound of someone walking by dragging his legs, the sounds made Maura even more frightened.

'' Brother..' That faint voice sounded as if calling itself. He looked to the right and left of the room, with increasing fear. Especially when he saw clearly someone standing behind him, a boy wearing a flower-pattern dress.

He remembered a boy sitting right next to him on the bus. The clothes he was wearing were exactly the same as the figure that was before him at the moment.

'' You..'' Maura began to stammer, her throat seemed difficult to make a sound.

'' Follow me brother, the boy's voice trembled slightly, he turned around and stuck his arm towards Maura.

Sontak Maura was surprised to see the boy's shattered face. Next to his face is not shaped even barely recognizable, his skin peeled to show the cheek meat that filled with blood.

The boy's right arm extended towards him, while his left arm was like a broken and bent.

'' Pe-go.don't bother me.I don't want to come along. Maura shouted hysterically.

Now not only the child who was there but other terrible figures were popping up on each side of the room as if he was crowding and watching himself who was getting scared.

'' Go away from here, Maura kept shouting hysterically, seeing all the hands of those creatures sticking out towards her as if inviting her to come along with them.

Maura who was no longer able to see the appearance of the terrible creature was immediately closed his eyes and closed both ears because some of them continue to putty invite him away, somewhere.

'' Maura, Medina's voice again saved her.

'' Dina, Maura assured me that Dina was the one in front of her at the moment. He circulated a look looking for those terrifying figures that had suddenly disappeared the moment Medina appeared.

'' I'm scared, I want to get out of here. I want to go home, said Maura.

'' Yes, you should go home soon. Your family is waiting for you, Dina's eyes are glazed over. Now Medina's face turned deathly pale, as if there was no blood flowing in her body.

'' Maura suddenly Khadijah's voice sounded faint in the ears. Khadijah is Maura's mother.

Medina and Maura looked for the source of the sound, their sight wandering sweeping through the room.

'' My mother's voice, you hear ? '' mura whispered.

'' You mean ? '' Maura really did not understand Dina's words just now. Dina's attitude was getting strange, as well as the aura that emanated on her best friend's face.

'' Maura.'' again Khadija's voice called out to her.

This time Maura seemed to hear her mother was waking up while fast asleep and asleep in the dream realm. Sayup sounded the voice of Khadijah, as if carrying him to another place.

A dazzling ray of Maura's gaze, he narrowed his eyes as the light continued to draw closer towards his direction. Now he could not see around even Medina was blocked by the bright light.

.

.

'' Maura.'' said Khadijah repeatedly. He sat next to his daughter who was lying on the sick bed.

Maura is in a coma, and Khadijah accompanies her day and night. Reading the holy verse beside his daughter, he even ceaselessly prayed the tahajud prayer for the healing of his daughter Maura.

He began to call out the name of his daughter when he found Maura's wiggly finger moving slowly. Tears dripped from Maura's tightly shut eyes.

Several medical devices were attached to Maura's body, as if they were fighting off her weakened heart rate.

The doctor who handles Maura suggested that Khadijah continue to build chemistri between mother and child, to resuscitate Maura again.

After every effort was made to awaken Maura from her coma, only one way could possibly help her. With the closeness of loved ones who continue to accompany and pray for the healing of the girl.

I wish there was a miracle of God there. Do'a and trust and sincerity and patience are what they can do at this time when faced with Maura's condition. Maura's healing was very thin, only medical aids were installed making her still survive until now.

Khadijah, the Doctor and the two nurses stared at each other waiting for Maura's response following her. After before her move her fingers and let out tears.

The weakened heart rate is now starting to stabilize, they can see from the hemodynamic and saturation monitor located next to Maura.

The development of Maura is very significant thanks to the power of do'a, all that is inseparable from the Power of God which still gives him the opportunity to live.

Slowly Maura opened her eyes, and cries began to decorate the room.

'' MasyaAllah..Alhamdulillahot.. O Allah, said Khadijah lirih, tears wet the middle-aged woman's face.

The doctor and two nurses also expressed praise and gratitude for the recovery of their patients. Nothing is impossible in this world, if God has willed ' So it will be ' .

Maura was the only survivor of the accident, while the others on the bus were all killed. Truly a miracle that is difficult to digest logic when it comes to the greatness of God. A devastating accident that takes many lives can leave one survivor, Maura.

'' I-bu.'' Lirih Maura started to make a sound.

'' Oh, baby, this is Mom. '' Khadijah clasped Maura's fingers with warmth.
