A Wife's Heart

CHAPTER 3

It's been a week Mr. Martin has been in the ICU. Reza and Mrs Irma are still waiting faithfully for Mr. Martin. Sometimes if Reza has an operation schedule, then Mrs Irma is waiting for her husband alone.

Mr. Jono has been awake for two days and has been transferred to the VIP treatment room. Reza had deliberately asked the Hospital for Mr. Jono to be treated with the best facilities, because Reza already considered Mr. Jono part of his family. Mr. Jono has been a personal driver of Mr. Martin since Reza was a child.

Reza entered the ICU using a special suit. Reza sat next to the patient's bed. He held the right hand of the man he loved dearly. The hand always led her to walk, embrace, and embrace her body with pride. Now the hand looks very weak helpless.

A clear thread flowed in the corner of his sharp eye. His chest tightened with tears seeing many medical devices stuck in his father's body that was starting to age.

Reza is weak when it comes to dealing with his father. His love for his father was more than anything.

"Pa, wakeup. Papa is not tired of sleeping. Reza Kangen talking to Papa. Discussion with Papa. If Papa wakes up, then we go fishing. Sorry Reza never had time to catch Papa fishing. But Reza promised, if Papa is awake and healthy, Reza will nemenin Papa. Reza also promised to get married like Papa would." Reza whispered in his father's ear, sobbing.

Every day Reza always invites her father to tell her, both about her childhood and about the flirtatious women who try to approach her. Reza occasionally chuckles when remembering funny memories of him and his father.

Reza saw tears flowing from the corner of her father's eyes. Her father's fingers, which were still in his grasp, began to move, and Reza quickly pressed the button to call the doctor. After that the doctor came and checked Mr. Martin's condition.

"The patient situation is now quite good. He began to respond to what he heard. He often told me. You know what I mean, don't you?" Said the doctor.

"Yes, I get it. Thank you very much, Doc!" Reza.

"Either. Then, excuse me first."

"Please, Doc."

Reza looked back at his father's face. The feeling of anxiety still enveloped his heart. He asked his father again, then Reza started to tell him back. Reza hopes that his father will soon come to his senses from the coma.

At 10 p.m., Lira came home from work. Today the stalls where Lira works are very crowded, so Lira can go home early. It's been a week since Lira kept thinking about Mr. Martin's situation. The shadow of the middle-aged man's face was always present in his dreams.

The plan is after work, the Lira will visit Mr. Martin. But his fatigue overcame his spirit. Lira had to postpone her intention. Lira's going to see Mr. Martin tomorrow afternoon.

Lira decides to go back to her boarding house. Lira walked while carrying a plastic bag containing eating the rest of the sale at the Lesehan stall where she worked. Good for breakfast tomorrow morning. As usual, if there was any leftover food, the Lira would take him home. That makes it a little bit cost-effective. Lucky the owner of the lesehan stall was very good and understanding to him.

Tonight is very bright again. Lira felt grateful because she did not have to deal with the flood if the rainy season arrived.

📞"Hello! Assalamu'alaykum, Neng ?" There was a soft voice of a woman from across the street.

📞"Wa'alaykumussalam. Mom, how are you?" Asked Lira while developing her sweet smile.

📞"Alhamdulillah, Mom healthy. If Neng how are you? Neng is in good health. Neng ate it?" Ask mom streak.

Lira chuckles.

📞"Hehe....Thank God, Neng is healthy and Neng has also eaten. Don't worry, God willing, take care of yourself. Take care of your health, don't forget to take your medicine." Obviously Lira was convincing.

📞"Yes, if that Neng rest there. I'm tired of work." Declare mother.

📞" Yes, Neng sleep first yes, Mom. Assalamu'alaykum."

📞"Wa'alaykumussalam, Neng."

Tut Tut's..

After calling his mother, Lira began to read Al-Fatihah once, Al-Ikhlas three times, Al-Falaq

three times, and An-Nas three times. After that it is blown into the hands and then rubbed all over the body. Lira began to close her eyes. Drowsiness and fatigue so fiercely attacked him. Eventually, Lira fell asleep.
