A Tale of Ary

31. Renaldy Pratama

Renaldy Pratama is a son of a successful plantation entrepreneur, he is the first of 2 children. His friends often call him Rendy. A student majoring in computer at one of the public universities in Jogjakarta. He comes from outside Java, on the island of Sumatra, more precisely Medan.

Rendy has an intelligent but perverted brain. He's a player, every day there are always different girls who become his partner. Even in a day he can change partners, just like clothes. Although many girls have been made heartbroken, but there are still many girls who queue to be his lover.

Rendy has a pretty face, a thick nose, sharp eyes and clean white skin. Body height about 175cm, thin body dry because eaten by disease.

His brain intelligence and intelligence in interacting with others make him liked by women. He is good at operating computers, ranging from assembling to computer programs all mastered.

At a young age he was able to set up his own business. The talent of an entrepreneur is obtained from both parents. Rendy's parents are famous culinary entrepreneurs and have several branches in the area.

The busyness of both parents makes Rendy wrong association. Lack of attention and affection from both parents made Rendy drunk and smoking at a very young age at that time. Since sitting in Junior High School Class VII, Rendy has known cigarettes and liquor.

At the age of 18, he was diagnosed with bronchitis because he was a heavy smoker. No wonder if at the age of just 21 years, already affected by lung disease chronic bronchitis. Coupled with him who was lazy to take medicine made his illness not heal and even worse.

In Jakarta, she lives alone in the house her parents bought her. Not only houses, even motorized vehicles are provided by their parents.

"Not come! Why come if only for an hour. Send hospital fees to your account!" said Rendy while slamming her beloved HP into the mattress.

He was angry because again his parents chose to take care of his business than he, his son. He felt wasted, meaningless in the eyes of both his parents.

While Rendy is angry after receiving a call from her father, Ary goes into her room to check on her condition and to find out her health development.

"Good day, brother! How come his face is bent like that, again bad mood huh?" greet Ary kindly.

"It's none of your business!" answer Rendy briefly.

"What complaints are there today, brother? Still claustrophobic on his chest?" Ary as usual gave some questions to Rendy to find out the health development of Rendy.

"Still a little claustrophobic!" answer Rendy with a ketus.

"Let me check first!" ary said with a smile and approached Rendy.

Ary started checking on Rendy.

"Sure the medicine is not taken anymore, these are his lungs getting dirty? Is there cigarette smoke?" ask Ary.

"No!" said Rendy while shaking her head, in response to Ary's question.

"Last night or this morning?" Arys.

"Nothing! It says nothing yes nothing! You want to know the business of people!" Rendy ignited her emotions.

She had an emotional call from her papa, now Ary interrogated her.

"A visitor who visited Abang?" ask Ary again.

"Nothing!" answer Rendy briefly.

"Wait a minute, I remember!" Rendy seemed to think back to the events last night.

"Your friend must be smoking in this room?"ask Ary.

"Why am I a suspect like this!" ask Rendy angry.

Ary stays calm facing Rendy, the only patient who drains his energy and brain. Ary had to be extra patient with his patients, if his patience was lost then failed his efforts to go to medical school.

"Not a suspect, if you can tell his friend do not smoke in the hospital room of the patient. In the hospital it is prohibited to smoke, has been installed many warning boards are prohibited from smoking. Why do we still smoke? In the patient's inpatient room again!!" obviously Ary.

"If I forbid him to smoke here, who will accompany me here? You want to sleep here with me?" asked Rendy, her perverted brain has started to come out.

"Are you healing or not???" Ary had already been lazy in responding to Rendy's words.

"What if I'm cured, you want to be my baby?" challenge Rendy while squinting her eyes with a smile.

"Basic omes!!!" Ary left the room. Leaving Rendy alone.

During his time at the hospital Rendy was only accompanied by a friend named Brandon. When Brandon is free he will accompany Rendy, usually at night he just came. Brandon is a college friend and his men in managing Rendy's business.

Rendy laughed out loud at Ary's words. He was happy because he managed to prank Ary. Since Ary's presence in his life, Rendy feels more challenged. His self-proclaimed adventurer soul to conquer women rose again. Though all this time he has been bored with his life which is always monotonous according to him.

"I have to get a girl!'' said Rendy while clenching her hands.

Suddenly Rendy presses the emergency button to call the nurse because she needs help.

"Is there anything we can help you with? Or any complaints about your health?" ask the nurse.

"Gue wants to call the doctor who was assigned to take care of me!" said Rendy.

Rendy's attitude that does not know manners is well known in the hospital. Other than her being alone in the hospital for 2 weeks of being treated, the bossy attitude she always showed made her easily recognizable at the hospital.

"Sorry, if for that information you better ask directly to the administration. The section is intended to share information about the patient and the attending physician." replied the nurse.

"Where did I ask for the phone number!" said Rendy.

"Next to the emergency button has been taped, please contact if there is something you need." replied the nurse.

"OK! Thank you." said Rendy briefly.

"I'm sorry, if you need help, please push the emergency button back" the nurse said as she left the room.

"Freak! Squeeze the bell just for nanyain no HP doctor only! Kirain had an emergency, make a hanger!." the nurse grumbled slowly so that no one heard his words.

Rendy just shook her hand as a sign of "Sana go you!"

Rendy started keeping the hospital's phone number for information about Ary. Rendy is curious about Ary's attitude which is always indifferent to her.

"Now this time there are girls who are not affected by my charm! Usually the girl who snedeketin me, this mentang-about medical students are very arrogant ma me. I must have found you beautiful!" rendy muttered.
