Akara Longs for the Waiting

61. Thinks

In the hospital room of a well-known hospital. Kai who had an accident some time ago is seen lying in a banker.

The body wrapped in the patient's nursing clothes lay helpless after being unconscious. On his neck appears attached a buffer device, or in medical language called cervical collar, which is a tool used to support the neck and protect the back from movement that can cause more severe injury.

The accident that Kai had experienced caused several injuries to parts of the body. Among them are torn wounds on the side of the abdomen due to exposure to road barriers. The spine to his neck was injured due to bouncing from the motor with a somersault position. There are no other injuries, but it is quite said to be serious and needs intensive care.

Luckily Kai's friends and riders who saw the incident were quick to do a roundup and contact the ambulance as soon as possible.

Kai's motorbike also suffered considerable damage due to a single collision that occurred due to his negligence.

Kai's family who heard that came straight from the village after being told by Alby.

Alby himself was only informed by Satria when he was almost at the hospital.

While Kai who is sick can be seen grimacing hearing the scolding from the mother. Yes, so are most mothers, their children are sick not given attention and affection but instead given a scolding. As a result, Kai who can't do anything just quietly heard a lecture from Mother.

“That's when riding a motorbike algal-ugalan, many styles go touring!" observed Mother still continues her tirade since some families who came to visit Kai began to go home one by one.

Stay Father, Mother, Syaqila, Kai's youngest brother, also Alby, Tiwi, Alby's wife and Azka his son. Everyone is gathering there. While the 2-year-old boy looks busy checking the parcels of people who visit Kai.

“The name is also calamity, mother!" timpal Tiwi uses their local language, Malay.

“The holiday he was looking for himself!" continue Mom while looking at Kai who looks closed his eyes. Her ears were hot hearing Mother's endless scolding.

“Try if the holidays do not have much style here and there."

“Libur ya rest, why even wander until Sumbar!"

“Udahlah Mak, sick child instead of loved even diomel. Kasian!"

Ah, it feels like Kai wants to hug the father who defended him. Like a God of salvation, Dad always was. However, it is not the mothers of his name if anyone succeeds in stopping. Usually the mothers or one of the strongest creatures on earth will just stop nagging by themselves, without being asked.

As a result, Kai had to let go of his ears served with Mom's nagging. If Mom knows her phone is missing, it is certain the nagging will increase.

While through the door gap, Satria was seen peeking. He who was about to go in and give Kai a cell phone so he could contact Meysa was hesitant to step inside when he heard Kai being iiomeli. So he decided to go back to the boarding house first, to clean himself and change clothes before returning there.

....

“Pick the yam leaves that are behind it, Mey!"

The middle-aged man who had just come out of the room looked neatly dressed in Muslim clothes complete with sarongs and peci.

As usual. Rusdi, the father of Meysa and Faza was indeed every time to pray in a mosque not far from home.

Mr. Rusdi, who happened to want to eat dinner using the vegetables of sweet potato leaves, immediately gave orders when he saw his youngest son who was busy all day at the house Rena was finally home.

“Iya, sir! Later!" sahut Meysa without looking at it. He prefers to go straight into the room.

While the father whose order has been confirmed immediately out of the house, went to the mosque using his duck motorbike.

Without knowing if her daughter will not do as she is told.

How not? Meysa, who was hit by anxiety and sadness after getting news about Kai's condition, was immediately not eager to do anything. Even after finishing communicating with Satria, Meysa immediately decided to go home next to Rena's house without saying goodbye to anyone in the house.

In the room Meysa cried as much as she kept looking at Kai's photos and videos. Longing and anxiety have melted into one. Meysa is still waiting for news from Satria who she says will call her back so that she can see Kai's situation directly.

However, until now the awaited never gave any news, even though the time isya has also passed.

Earlier Mr. Rusdi even had a nag when returning from the mosque even did not find any food served in the kitchen. His daughter did not do as she commanded. The middle-aged man decided to cook for himself. If he waited for Meysa, he might starve to death.

“Meysa this if told to make nothing is never quite right!" omel Bapak's.

However, Meysa paid no attention at all. Likewise with the phone and messages from Rena that he deliberately ignored. Meysa was not excited. He is still not calm if he has not seen Kai's condition.

Crying while waiting for news from Satria finally made Meysa sleep in a state of sadness.

And when morning comes. Meysa wakes up in a puffy face. The first thing I checked was his phone. He was expecting news from Satria or whoever it was. However, nil. No phone or message, except a notification from Rena.

Meysa is confused as to who else to contact besides Satria. He could have contacted Bang Alby through his social media accounts, but Meysa was too reluctant to have to explain at length about who he was and what his relationship with Kai was. Besides being difficult, he was also still reluctant to introduce himself to his future sister-in-law.

“Try Satria's phone again!" lirih Meysa while trying to contact Satria, connected but not picked up, even after several calls. Hmmmnt, it looks like Satria is exhausted to forget to report.

Meysa kept pacing back and forth like an iron in the light green painted room. There are many pictures of Meysa there.

“ Yes Allah, bee!" Meysa said softly, sighing at the thought of her helplessness that could do nothing. Even boukat florist shop and clean the house he did not do.

After thinking of ways and solutions what he can do to find out Kai's state. Meysa finally made the decision to visit her lover directly to Pekanbaru.

“Yes, I think the only solution is that." Meysa reconsidered while biting her lower lip. One hand hugged his stomach, while the other refuted his chin with his index finger constantly tapped on his cheek, He was thinking of an idea.

“But how do I ask permission to father and Faza?" Meysa breathed a heavy sigh. His life is not as free as the life of a celebrity who is free to go anywhere, even with a girlfriend.

Going out for a while he had been interviewed by the Father, even Faza who was far away every day called just to ask where and what. He has two bodyguards who are so possessive and keep them tight.

About the cost of leaving Meysa didn't think about it. Because this way, he has enough savings. Money from the results of hammering on the online novel writing platform, the results of online sales and florist sales and pocket money from the father is enough to make his savings fatten. Besides not being wasteful, Meysa is good at saving. So, he did not think too much about the cost to go see Kai. You could say Meysa does look like unemployment, but his income is enough to finance his own life.

“I miss you, bee! I want to see how you are!" lirih Meysa, tired of pacing back and forth finally she sat on the bed.

He and Kai had not met for more than a year making the longing can no longer be expressed, not to mention the calamity that befell Kai really makes him not calm.

Finally, after pondering and thinking carefully, Meysa still chose her plan to visit Kai. He also found a good reason to ask permission. About Faza, Meysa doesn't want to get dizzy. He will also use the same thing on his bodyguard.

Meysa has packed some of her clothes into a green suitcase, medium size . After that he immediately went out of the room, looking for the whereabouts of the Father, hoping that the Father was at home. Because usually Mr. Rusdi always goes to the garden at hours like this.

Meysa breathed a sigh of relief when she saw you were busy taking care of her fishing line on the front porch. Mr. Meysa is a hobby fishing, he even has a Strike gang association. Understandably, widower gaul.

“Pak," call Meysa to his serious father, minus glasses perched on Mr. Rusdi's nose. It turns out that Meysa's nose is descended from the father.

“Hmm!" He answered without looking.

“What Meysa?" asked the Father when he saw Meysa was silent, never conveying his wishes.

“Anu..."

Meysa hesitantly expressed her intentions. Because what Meysa wants to convey is a policy that he has designed in such a way. Meysa is afraid of being scared of lying, but she is also afraid of being caught.

”Anu what?" ask the father again.

“You request permission to go..“

“Where to go?” ask the Father without looking

“There's a friend of mine getting married in Sarudu!" meysa said by calling the name of the district city in his area.

“Who are you going with?" I was busy putting on the hook.

“Sama Arini!" meysa said one of her friends was a year older than her.

“Rena not coming?"

“No sir, Rena has been proposed. Where can go far!"

Mr. mangosteen heard the words of the child.

Meysa was so nervous, this was the first time she had lied to her parents just for the sake of visiting Kai who was sick.

Finally he gave permission as Meysa set time, which was one week. Even my father gave me extra money.

After the Zuhur Meysa immediately set off for the hammer and will fly from there to Pekanbaru.

Meysa went using a subscription travel car that often people use when they want to go to the city of Palu.

During the trip, Meysa took the time to book airline tickets via online. Many night flights to Pekanbaru are empty, only available for flights tomorrow at dawn. Meysa who did not want to wait too long did not give up just like that, the girl continued to look for a plane that could fly tonight. And fortunately he found what he was looking for, as expected even though he had to use a smaller plane. That's fine! The important thing is to be able to fly and the destination to Pekanbaru. Meysa smiled happily, impatiently wanting to meet Kai soon.

Just as he was about to take a break, his phone rang again. When viewed, the name of the contact with the inscription 'Mamakku' is listed there. Meysa sighed as Ms. Samsuri called her.

“Halo, Assalamu'alaikum."

“Yes, why?"
