A Star

Thirty-one

It has been two weeks since the accident, Dr. Rendra is lying in a coma in the VVIP room of a renowned hospital in the city of B.

At the request of Mr. Deva, Dr. Rendra's older brother, that he be treated intensively in the best hospital in my city.

Not spared a day I visited him, alternating with Mamah Rena.

"mah. mamah go home and rest at home, let me here take care of him" I said.

"are you not working?"

"i have asked Mr. Deva for permission to do my work from here while looking after Dr. Rendra" I replied.

"alright, thank you for wanting to replace your mother to take care of her" said mamah while staring at the direction of Dr. Rendra who never realized.

"saw... Dr. Rendra is like this because Dara, sorry Dara mah" said I bowed.

"it is not wrong who is son. This is already the destiny of the Power" said mamah.

I hugged mamah Rena who began to care because for two weeks eating and sleeping irregularly.

"you do not forget to eat and rest enough, do not let Dr. Rendra sad to see the state of mamah when he realized later" I said.

"yes.." looks mammy tears escaped wetting his face.

I gently rubbed the tears, I would actually cry too but I could bear to make mamah Rena not feel more sad.

After my mother's death, I sat beside Dr. Rendra's bed,

"Dok... aren't you tired of lying down? open your eyes." I said as I gently rubbed his pale face.

"didn't you miss me? you say you can't stay long without seeing my face? look at me now here, in front of you" I continued.

There was no movement at all from him, he remained in his position, stretched stiff with his eyes tightly closed.

I shifted a bit away and took out my laptop, as promised to Mr. Deva if I would finish my duties while looking after Dr. Rendra, his younger brother.

I'm struggling with financial statements that seem to be manipulated by irresponsible individuals to cause huge losses to the company, now this company is on the edge.

If Mr. Deva had not asked me myself, I would never have moved to this city again, I would not have recalled the bitter memories of my past.

So busy with work, I did not realize it was dark and mamah Rena has come again,

"you should go home, son, your face looks very tired" said mamah.

"i'm tired because my job is not because I take care of Dr. Rendra even I'm happy to keep him here" I said with a smile.

"thank you for your concern." said mamah sincerely.

I also say goodbye to mamah, when down the aisle of the hospital that was a bit quiet because the visiting hours alan ended, my eyes caught the figure of someone who seemed to me to know,

Degh's....

Instantly my heart seemed to want to be dislodged, when it could see clearly the face,

"Ride???"I was barely heard.

I wanted to avoid it but this hallway is straight there is no alley that can be made to turn, I tried to cover my face with a laptop bag, hoping he did not recognize me.

We passed by the face I kept hidden behind my laptop bag,

"alhamdulillah.." My inner self after passing through it, it seems that he did not see me.

Once I felt safe, I went back to normal walking and took the laptop bag off my face,

"long time no see." the voice echoed in the quiet hallway.

"matiiiii me.." I cried inwardly.

I pretended not to hear it, and just kept walking away from it, but suddenly he blocked my wrist firmly making my body turn face to face with him,

"i've guessed, it must be you." he said with a smile.

I'm quiet not shaking, though,

"how areyou? Andhara Bilqis's? MY EX-LOVER" Pandu said with great emphasis at the end of his sentence.

"why are you squealing? that's reality, isn't it?" said again.

"it's just a part of the past that I've been throwing into the sea for a long time!" I said with ketus.

"sure you can throw it away?"

"believe.." I murmured.

"then what about that fetus, I'm not sure you threw it away?" pandu.

Degh's...

Again I had to do heart exercises a second time, how did she know I was carrying her child? my inner.

"why did your face turn so pale?" he asked me again to see my face change.

"ck..." I clucked trying to divert my nervousness.

"you won't answer?" he asked.

"i don't think I need to answer anything!"

"you really don't want to explain anything about my son?"

"your child? which child?" I pretend I don't understand the direction of the conversation.

"of course it's my son you were born with 5 years ago!"

"cih.I don't feel pregnant with anyone!"

"don't give it up or I'll take it away from you!" threaten her.

"that's enough!!!!!" I screamed because I was sick.

"why? you scared huh?"he said it was full of victory.

"don't ever mess with my personal life again! still good thing I didn't report you for raping me!"

"rape? you even enjoyed it!!!"

"basic asshole! if you don't frame me, I won't sleep with you!!!" I grunt with tears.

"ck.. everything has passed and the fact is that you are now the mother of my son" she said in a soft voice.

I keep crying, though,

"please tell me, where is he?"

I remained silent, though,

"i'm his father, I deserve to know about him"

Maybe this is the time, I thought, I could not hide this secret from him forever, he would know.

Finally, with a heavy heart, I replied, "he is home with my mother, she is female and is now 4 years old"

Pandu, who was originally a rogue, now turned sad, even she shed tears when I told her about Mela.

"name's Mela.." I continued.

"hiks... hiks..can I meet him?" he said in his tears.

"yes.." lirihku.

Slowly Pandu took off his hand, and I quickly passed from before him, I did not want to turn melancholy because I saw him cry.

While Pandu, I saw him fall to the floor shortly after I left him alone, I had a quick glance at him.

I was wondering why Pandu could be in this hospital, who's sick? or is he visiting his friend? all yawned just like that after she talked about the fetus that made me feel too good to answer.
