Ayunda, Secret Wife of the President

Ayunda, Secret Wife of the President
Chapter 147 - The State of Darren



The man was still silent staring at the figure of the father who was lying weakly on the bed with a lot of medical devices attached to his body. Melisa rubbed the husband's shoulder, making the man turn his head and look at the beautiful face of the wife. 


"But, relax.." 


"Papi's heart can't calm down before seeing Papa wake up. Strange, now Papi misses when Papa nags deh." Said Arvin with his wry smile. Melisa also took her husband's arm. She feels that her husband needs her support right now. 


Behind Arvin, there are Naren and Ayunda who are both silent. In fact, Ayunda has caught Aif's eye. He could not bear it when he saw the state of a middle-aged man who was very good to him. It was so painful to see him just lying in bed with both eyes closed tightly. His lips looked deathly pale, his body also began to be thin. 


Even her distended stomach was no longer there, what a worrisome state Darren was in now. It has been two months since the accident happened until now. During that time, Darren was lying in a hospital bed in a coma. The accident made some of his sensitive points disturbed, which is what kept him in a coma until now.


"It hurts so much to see him like this." Narendra lirih. Ayunda looked up to be able to look at the handsome face of her husband. 


"Bag.." Ayunda rubbed her husband's arm slowly. 


"Grandfather will definitely wake up quickly, we just have to trust him. Don't give up hope, the doctor says every possibility can happen, right?" Ayunda asked with a smile, even though her own eyes were swollen because she could not help her crying when she saw Darren's situation. 


The middle-aged man looked thin, his body only had a bone wrapped in skin, that fast? It was only two months, but it was able to make Darren lose a lot of his weight. That is what makes us sad the most. 


"Grandpa's body is so skinny, baby."


"Hmm, because he doesn't eat. Just relying on infusions and liquid food." Java Ayunda. Not skinny how? Now, his life depends on medical devices, eating only liquid food that is inserted through a hose. 


"Mas can't stand it, baby. Go out first, yeah.." 


"I'm coming, Mas."


"We're going to the park huh, Mas wants to be in a rather quiet place." Take Narendra. Ayunda nodded her head, then clasped the hand of the wife and the two went together. 


The couple went to the park behind the hospital, where it was very spacious, beautiful and also a little quiet. There are only a few patients here who might be bored in their room, so to eliminate the boredom, they go to the park, even though the air is very cold. But it did not dampen their desire to see snow. 


Narendra and Ayunda chose a long bench for them to sit on. The two of them sat together, Ayunda grasped Narendra's hand tightly. He believes that Naren's goal to this place is to reflect on all his mistakes in Darren when the middle-aged man was still healthy first. 


"Bag.."


"Yes, honey. What's up?" Naren asked while looking at the beautiful face of the wife with a slightly different look than me. I don't know what it means, but Ayunda is sure something is wrong with her husband's gaze. He must be having an inner conflict right now. 


"Are you okay?"


"May I say no, baby. How can I be okay?" Behind asked Narendra, still with his strange gaze. This time, however, he was equipped with his wry smile. 


"Mas can tell the same story as me, not in the pendam. I'm Mas's wife, right?" Ayunda said, making Naren look at his wife. This time, he looked at Ayunda with sadness. His eyes were glazed over, indicating that he was not okay.


"Sorry, sweetheart. I feel like the saddest person here, but everyone is just as sad, not just Mas."


"Yes, Mas. No one wants anything bad to happen to the people closest to us like this, Mas." Answer Ayunda. 


"Mas only felt very guilty because before the accident, mas had a debate with grandfather. That's all that makes Mas' heart always hurt when looking at Grandpa." Obviously Narendra makes Ayunda finally understand that her husband must be haunted by guilt for Darren. 


"Everyone makes mistakes, baby. No one is perfect in this world, including you. Want to be as perfect as you are in the eyes of others, but you are still a human being who can make mistakes, Mas." Say Ayunda at length. 


"Don't blame yourself, Mum. This incident is not our desire and also not the fault of anyone. It's really a fate that can't be changed anymore." 


"Yes, honey. But Mas feels guilty to grandfather, if only before he left for this country, our relationship is fine, maybe the guilt Mas same grandfather will not be this big." Narendra. He breathed his breath many times. Talking to his wife can indeed make his heart feel a little relieved. However, that guilt still remained in Naren's heart. 


"It's not your fault, Mommy."


"Hmmm.." Naren just cleared his throat in response, the man seemed to be staring straight ahead with a gaze that looked far away somewhere. 


"Mas, don't be dumb. It's a hospital, you'll miss."


"Yes, honey. Where is Mas bengong." Narendra replied with a small smile. 


"It's good that you're not dumb, Mom."


"Darling.." Call Narendra. Ayunda looked at her husband's face with a small smile that looks very sweet for Naren who is already in the early bucin stage. 


"Yes, Mas. Wh why? Anything you want to tell me again?" Ask Ayunda.


"No, but I want to thank you, baby." Lirih Narendra makes Ayunda look at Naren's face with a difficult look at the meaning. 


"Thank you? But for what?"


"Because I've been listening to the story, Mom. You're always the one next to Mas whenever Mas needs you, baby."


"Don't thank me, Mom. It's my duty, I'm your wife and it's my duty to always be by your side, accompanying you under any circumstances." Ayunda answered that made Narendra smile. He also embraced the wife's shoulder with affection.


Again, he felt very lucky because he could have a whole Ayunda. He loved his wife so much, and so did Ayunda. Narendra's family was the first to make Ayunda feel her existence is greatly appreciated by her presence. Thanks to the Naren family as well, she felt given such incredible affection. Everyone loves and loves themselves. 


"We go inside again yuk? It's cold here, which."


"Come, Mas." Answer Ayunda. He complied when the husband took him back to the grandfather's room. Apparently, there are still two parents there. There, Arvin is seen sitting in a small chair near the gurney with his hands tightly grasping Darren's weak hands. 


"Fire.."


"Where are you two from?" Ask Arvino. He looked at the two people who had just entered the room with his eyes. It's clear, if Arvino gets those puffy eyes from crying. He was crying over the father's condition that is increasingly declining, as sophisticated as the equipment in this era, will not be able to block death and fate right?


"From the park, Pi."


"Hmm, don't take Mami's daughter-in-law out of the room for long, it's cold outside. Mami doesn't want ya, your wife is sick because you're playing outside, let alone snowing!" Melisa made Ayunda smile. Pleased? Of course, he was very happy because both of them loved him very much. Even the two are loving as much as their own children.


In fact, maybe, the two are more fond of their daughter-in-law compared to their own biological children, because it is proven when Narendra often feel jealous of Ayunda because according to her Melisa is rather picky. But now, Narendra is not like that. He was also happy because finally Melisa's day was destroyed and could love the woman who was her choice.
