A Tale of Ary

42. Lunch

"Assalamualaikum.." said Ary on the first ringing. He raised the call because Bayu had sent a message before, that Bayu would call Ary.

When Ary came home from the clinic, there was an incoming message from Bayu. Ary came home late, because his patients are many today.

"Wa'alaikum hail... Already home, deck?" ask Bayu from across the phone.

"Sister, half an hour ago. That's why I sent the message earlier, this brother is stale! Stale tau!" ary replied while looking for a good position for the phone.

"Hmm, are you busy tomorrow?" ask Bayu.

"That's not certain, brother! It all depends on the patient, the more patients treated the more busy. If suddenly one of my patients had to be hospitalized, or suddenly my patient entered the ICU. I will be busy taking care of them. I don't know if I'm busy tomorrow. Pray that everyone will be healthy tomorrow" Ary explained.

"Tomorrow lunch with yuk!" bring Bayu.

"I can't promise, brother! Because I am a servant and the patient is king. Then I will be more priority to the patient, so if no patient can. But if many of my patients were at that time, please understand." replied Ary.

"Okay, tomorrow I come to the hospital! What time do I pick you up?" ask Bayu.

"Yes, brother! If you have a lot of patients, you eat yourself!" said Ary.

"I'll wait for you to finish." replied Bayu.

"Indeed brother Bayu does not work, why wait until finished?" ask Ary.

"I took 12 days off because I was sick" Bayu replied.

"Oh, okay! See you tomorrow, brother. I'm sorry, brother, I'm so sleepy!" ary said while grinning.

"Okay, see you! Have a nice dream." replied Bayu

"Assalamualaikum" Ary hung up the phone without waiting for Bayu to answer his greetings.

Ary closed his eyes to the island of dreams.

***

The next day, Ary returned to his usual activities. Wake up to take a bath, pray Subuh naji for a while then jog around the complex. After making breakfast, the bath went to the hospital.

Patient days are pretty much all, because doctor Fadli is on leave. All of Fadli's patients were returned to Ary. It's just that today wasn't as exhausting as yesterday. Without any fussy patients asking for first, make Ary calm work.

Until the hour has shown at one noon, there are still patients who have not been examined Ary. Ary has made an appointment to have lunch with Bayu.

Ary actually wants to reject her, but Bayu insists on waiting until Ary finishes the practice. Bayu had already contacted, if he would wait for Ary in the park near the hospital parking lot.

Ary feels uncomfortable working if someone is waiting for him. Because he didn't want to wait or wait.

Finally after the clock was almost close to two o'clock, Ary finished practice. The patient has been examined. Ary leaves his room to the park near the parking lot as promised.

From a distance, Bayu was sitting on a park bench. Ary walked over to Bayu.

"Sorry, brother! Long time is it waiting? Sorry yes!" ary said as he approached Bayu.

"It's okay, just calm down! Coincidentally there is also no event" said Bayu calming.

Bayu sat facing Ary, but next to his hand he put it back. Yes, Bayu brought a bouquet of roses and lilies Ary's favorite. Bayu deliberately brought a bouquet of flowers just to get the heart of a beautiful, intelligent doctor. Who else if not Ary, his first love since High School.

"Where are we eating in the hospital cafeteria or the restaurant across the street?" ask Ary.

Because Ary just stood up, Bayu also rose from his seat. Bayu handed the bouquet of flowers he brought earlier to Ary.

Ary was silent, he hesitated to accept it.

"It doesn't mean anything, does it, brother?" ask Ary suspiciously.

"If you give something, it has to mean that, right?" She asked Ary.

"No, it's not my birthday. Nothing special today either. Just astonishment!" ary said as he spread his shoulders.

"Take yes! Hold my hand waiting for you to take the bouquet!" bayu said.

Ary took the bouquet from Bayu's hand, thanking him.

"We ate at the diner across the street, huh?!" bayu said.

"Where you are, brother. The important thing is to be comfortable!" ary replied with a smile.

They walk to the restaurant. Both men love to move. In addition, it is also intentional to have a longer time to chat.

The moment they entered the restaurant, there was someone who noticed the two. Ary carried the flowers on his left hand, while his right hand stroked the flowers, and smelled the scent of his favorite flower.

Ary and Bayu chose the adjoining lesehan seat, because it is more relaxed and does not join other visitors.

"What does Ary want to eat?" ask Bayu while looking at the menu list.

"What yes, fish is my brother." replied Ary.

"Don't try anything else?" ask Bayu. Then Bayu ordered grilled fish and the mainstay menu at the restaurant.

"Kok all ordered anyway?" ask Ary.

Bayu's treatment has not changed for Ary. Sincere affection to Ary, making Bayu always patient to face Ary.

Ary who long knew Bayu did not cover his spoiled nature. Because it is used to the treatment of Bayu who snacked.

"Let you eat, you must be hungry. It's past lunch hour!" replied Bayu smiling.

"Where are you, brother! So much is!" said Ary.

"The cooking is not over? The end of the war must have eaten a lot! I think it used to be time out for practice, it must have eaten a lot" Bayu said while remembering the old school days.

"That big brother's a thumb!" ary said as he gave his thumbs up.

Bayu who saw Ary's behavior just laughed a little. His Ary turns out to be changing, still spoiled like he used to be. Bayu also hopes Ary remains as he once was, there is no girlfriend.

Ary and Bayu always laughed during their time at the restaurant. I don't know what they are talking about, fellow PNS in different fields it looks cool joking. Bayu in the field of taxation, while Ary in the health sector.

Someone who had been watching since felt jealous. Because all this time he knew Ary was a cold and cuckoo girl. Ary never responded to all of his actions.

Yes, that someone was Rendy who at that time happened to have an appointment with another girl. But the girl doesn't show up until Ary and Bayu come. Instead of meeting her sex girl, even seeing a painful sight.

"Huh, expensive selling! He is the same as the others. Wear the jaim in front of me again!" grouse Rendy.

Rendy felt very upset, annoyed that multiplied. The sexy guy didn't come and saw Ary walking with another guy.

"Look, I can definitely get you!" said Rendy while clenching her hands.
