Episode 83



After shopping, the two women intend to return, and when they are about to step out of the boutique, they are shocked by the arrival of Beni, the man standing right in front of the two, as if intentionally blocking their path.


“ What are you doing here?” asked Lika cynically.


Be honest! After Lika heard the story from July, she became upset at the man named Beni, especially at the attitude of Beni who seemed to dump July after tasting the sweet body of the beautiful secretary.


“ Of course pick you up” Beni replied casually, trying to stay relaxed more precisely, whereas in her heart she was scared to death, afraid of the look of hatred that Lika was pointing at her.


Lika and July throw each other a glance for a moment, then turn back to look at Beni, implying a deep curiosity, about what the man really thinks, why did Beni pick them up? Even though there is currently a driver who accompanies them, or if there is something that happens that Beni cannot reveal.


Beni knew and understood the thoughts of the two women before him, as their faces implied everything, but the man chose to turn away, turning the topic away with his crisp joke.


“ Please switch your eyes ladies! I know that I'm handsome, your edge doesn't need to look at me like that, I feel a little uncomfortable” Beni replied with an intonation that sounded so confident.


The two women before him clucked at the answer.


It's hard to believe!


A beni whose incident is always taking life seriously, can say such a bad thing.


Lika who was already upset so even more annoyed.


July was not even out of thought with Beni's attitude that was like asking jokes with her serious face.


“ tell me the truth! You came on your own initiative ? Or my husband who told you to?” ask Lika


Lika's tone of voice still sounded unfriendly, and this time even seemed to urge Beni to tell the truth.


Beni seemed to think, he did not know to tell the truth, or even lie to the two women in front of him, the words of the handsome president was as if ringing in his ears, the incident some time ago was again imagined.


Some time ago, precisely before Beni approached Lika and July at the boutique, Arjuna suddenly barged into his room, approaching him, with the president's panicked face suddenly pounding the table quite fast, with a panic, his gaze was so serious, the president then said...


“ Ben please help me this time only, keep my wife busy for a while, do not let her go home or return to the office before I return, there are urgent matters that I have to deal with, but don't let Lika know that if I ask you to do this, MY DEAD LIFE IS IN YOUR HANDS, MY BROTHER!”


Beni could not bear to refuse, especially Arjuna emphasized the intonation of his voice at the end of the request, and again, Arjuna spoke with life and death.


Beni is weakest if for problems that concern one's life, it is very important for him, especially when it comes to the lives of his family and those closest to him.


Returning to this moment, Beni regained her senses from her daydream.


Amidst the turmoil that struck, his eyes caught something interesting, let's say Beni was captivated by July's elegance, the man even smiled without him noticing.


July's appearance is indeed different from when they went to the boutique, currently July wearing a beautiful dress that was deliberately bought by Lika as a gift, Lika also changed her makeup a little, who usually wear thick formal makeup, now dress more simply to seem natural.


And apparently! Beni likes the appearance of July who seemed more relaxed.


Lika nudged July's arm when she saw Beni's blatant attitude staring at July, she forgot her completely unanswered question, and felt happy to see Beni's gaze that seemed like it wanted to pounce on July.


July smiled shyly, lying if his feelings did not soar, but a moment later July realized because he remembered Beni's words, rejection speech that July could not ignore.


July cleared his throat to wake Beni up, July was quite aware that the idol of his heart was fascinated with his new appearance, but he did not want to dissolve in hope and again injured by the same man.


A question terbesit just like that in the mind of Lika ‘ maybe the creator deliberately brought Beni to improve Beni's relationship with July?'


Lika looked at Beni and July alternately, Lika knew the two men were trapped in an awkward atmosphere.


An idea also flashed on the mind of the former beautiful doctor, he also said “ what if we go to the cafe first”


Not wanting to waste the opportunity that might not’ coming again, Lika seems to be stealing the busy time of the two (Beni and July) to make them alone, spending time casually, and, get closer to each other in order to get to know each other better, in a personal context.


“ ti..


“ that's a great idea!” sergeant Beni before July finishes his rejection sentence.


“Have followed his mother boss, it would be innocent” healing whispered Beni who finally made July nod, the secretary agreed to the invitation because she was hypnotized by Beni's flirtatious eyes and a smile that Beni rarely showed her.


After all agreed, the three men also went to a cafe, they decided to walk because it was not far from the boutique, Lika walked first, and then, july and Beni walk in tandem behind Lika, like a bodyguard escorting the queen.


Lika noticed Beni's attitude from the glass wall along the road they went through, their smile beautifully when they saw the attitude of the man one, Beni repeatedly seen stealing glances at July, and the former doctor was quite satisfied to see July's indifference.


Lika doesn't know! July is too nervous to respond to Beni's current attitude, because July prefers to be quiet, and pretends not to know.


It didn't take long for them to arrive at the cafe, but what happened? Lika instead banishes July and Beni from before her, but when they just want to sit down, the woman asks Beni and July to sit separately with her.


“ go from before me, I do not want to sit with you, you better sit alone there! I want to sit alone and reflect on”


Such is the reason that Lika said, when in fact there is nothing that Lika wants to reflect on, the former doctor was deliberately to make Beni and July sit together, together, he raised a cold gaze so that the two men did not reject his words.


Lika sits by herself at the window, while Beni and July finally sit down at a table following Lika's orders, July feeling happy, but not with Beni, the man was agitated at the thought of what his sister-in-law was about to ponder.


Silence is created at Beni and July's table, the two men continue to throw a clumsy smile, want it to feel like July invites Beni to talk, but do not know what to talk about? don't know how? And don't know where to start the conversation.


July's heart continued to thrash, it felt like he did not want to waste the opportunity, in his heart he cheered himself to invite the man in front of him to talk, whether it was just a stale, stale, or talking about something that doesn't matter is okay.


Lika was really anxious to see that situation, she did not bring them closer to each other like this, repeatedly, Lika let out a long sigh, again.... And again... Frustrated to see the two people he tried to unite turned out to be just silent to each other.


And finally, Lika chose to try to enjoy the atmosphere around her, the woman gazed out at the bustling streets, while enjoying the bitter coffee and dessert she ordered, with a presumption wrapped in desire, ignore with a hope that later they will talk to each other if he no longer pays attention.


The sirens of ambulance cars rang out loud in the ears, Lika saw an ambulance trying to break through the crowded and crowded streets, some people pulled over the vehicle willingly, Lika said, but there are also those who still maintain their position, reluctant to be in the slack.


The ambulance driver continued to press the horn, but the car was still reluctant to give way, some motorcyclists even made things worse by overtaking the ambulance, making the road completely jammed.


The atmosphere of the road at that time was more crowded than usual, and it happened due to the closure of the road after an accident at the intersection.


The ambulance stopped, unable to move forward, or back to turn around, upset by the circumstances, the ambulance driver grabbed a loudspeaker, pulling his head out of the car.


The ambulance driver said “ sedan cars with xxx numbers and you bikers, please give us the road, we are bringing critical patients, otherwise! You all have to take responsibility if something bad happens with the patients I bring”


Lika saw and recognized the ambulance driver, the former doctor's heart was filled to see the situation, his soul's call as a doctor immediately rose again, as if suppressing everything that used to make the desire just buried, buried in the heart.


A bad memory also stuck in the memory, just remembered, he remembered the past when he became a doctor, precisely on the birthday of a malik doctor, he remembered, the day after Lika finished all her study-related affairs, on the first day of Lika, the beginning of the career of a doctor Malika Gunawan's daughter.


Once there was a story, when heavy rain flushed the surface of the earth, in a hospital, in front of the ER room Lika waited for her first patient restlessly, shortly, before, an ambulance stopped right in front of him.


Lika rushed to check on the patient shortly after the patient was taken down, but the hand that Lika was holding suddenly dropped just like that, the young doctor's steps slowly came to a halt, along with the loss of opportunity.


The patient died even before getting treatment, Lika who was upset to curse the ambulance driver, because he thought the patient might be able to survive if the ambulance driver could take him faster.


Lika realized from her daydream, the ambulance driver who was in front of her, was the same person Lika Maki had been, regret made her get up and run out of the cafe, rushing up to the ambulance driver who was driving like a snail, walking slowly, upset the driver could only continue to honk.


“ sorry!” the word was thrown just like that when Lika confronted the ambulance driver.


“ Doctor Malik!” the ambulance driver


“ yes!” exclaim Lika while nodding


“ Please help the patient in” said the driver with a clear face


The driver then got out of the car, he did not care about the situation of the road getting stuck because of his actions, because for him the patient in his car is more important.


The driver opened the back door for Lika. The former doctor got into the ambulance without hesitation.


Lika directly examined the patient, helping to treat him with makeshift equipment, the important thing is to reduce the risk of death of that patient.


Maybe no one noticed, Lika's eyes sparkled as if getting something she wanted so much in her life, even though she only bound one network of arteries to stop bleeding in the patient's head, but one action is enough to water his heart as if dry to come back to life, and again expect the dream that has run aground, return to play an active role to save the lives of others, return to treat patients, and, back to being a doctor, a dream he thought he would never be able to achieve again.
