Behind the Veil (Aisha)

New Doctor

This morning.

After seeing the state of Zayn, Alvian immediately rushed towards the operating room as there were several operations that he had to handle today.

Arriving there he was surprised that some people seemed to be surrounding someone, after looking around it turned out they were welcoming the arrival of a new surgeon.

Alvian just remembered that a few days ago the director of the Hospital said that he would add one more surgeon to compensate for the increasing number of patients who came to their Hospital.

Alvian walked up to the new doctor with a little spirit, to be honest he was happy because the arrival of the doctor would slightly reduce his busy schedule, he can do various tasks with him so that Alvian can have a little more time with his wife especially at a time like this, while both are waiting for the birth of their first baby who lives soon.

But Alvian was taken aback after learning who his new doctor-mate was. His intention to give a welcome he paused after finding out if the doctor was Indira, his college friend first.

Alvian still remembers the incident a few months ago when he attended a seminar outside the city, Indira almost made Aisha his wife misunderstand.

"Doctor Alvian how are you?" Indira greeted Alvian who was walking past him.

"Well," Alvian replied as he picked up a map and looked at his operating schedule today

Indira approaches Alvian.

"Aren't there any welcome from you?"

"Oh Yes. Welcome to this Hospital. Hopefully we can work well together," replied Alvian still by continuing to see the map.

Indira held back her laughter seeing Alvian who still remained cold to her.

Indira used her first day of work to get around the Hospital, before tomorrow she would start busy working she wanted to get to know her new workplace first.

After being satisfied to go around and greet some doctors who used to be also his college friends he will have lunch with one of his friends who had long been a doctor at the Hospital. They chose to have lunch in the general canteen after seeing that the canteen for Hospital employees was crowded by most nurses who were also taking lunch breaks.

While eating, he saw Alvian who seemed to have run out of surgery approaching a table where there were two veiled women there.

"That's his wife" said his friend smiling as if he knew Indira was curious about the figure of the woman approached by Alvian.

"His wife?" ask Indira not to believe it.

Doctor Silvi nodded.

"So it's true she didn't marry Anita?"

Silvi shook her head.

"If you don't hear wrong, Alvian's doctor married the woman of his parents' choice."

"Oh yeah?" indira asked in disbelief as she continued to watch Alvian and his wife eating together. He then smiled to imagine Anita who must be sad and languish because she did not get married to Alvian.

In her heart, she felt grateful to know that Anita was not a match with Alvian. He still remembers how he was run over by Anita because he was caught having a crush on Alvian secretly. Given that Indira became upset. He was vengeful with Anita who had humiliated him back then.

"Why? Do you still have a crush on Alvian?"

"Do you intend to take Alvian from his wife? Are you going to use your beauty to seduce her to fall into your arms?" Silvi jokingly looked at the face of her best friend.

"If yes. This is the right time because from today you will often meet and communicate. This is the time for you to vent your pending desires after a long time," Silvi said, ending with a laugh.

Indira laughs, she hits her friend's shoulder slowly.

"I'm not that crazy. Like there are no other men. There are still a lot of single men who are more handsome than Alvian who will queue up to get me."

Silvi and Indira laughed again.

"Oh yes. How's Anita doing, by the way? Where is he now?" ask Indira suddenly.

"Doctor Anita?"

"Yes." Yeah."

"He doesn't work at this hospital anymore."

Indira held back her smile. Of course Anita will no longer be able to work with Alvian. He thought for sure Anita resigned and went as far away from Alvian. He had imagined that Anita would be frustrated and languish because Alvian, the lover she loved so much and was proud of, did not belong to him.

"Well. That's Anita." Suddenly Silvi pointed at a veiled woman walking towards the table Alvian and his wife.

"Who? Doctor Anita?" Indira surprise.

"Yes. The person you asked just now. Anita Alvian's ex."

Indira widened her eyes looking at Anita's appearance. Increasingly shocked when he saw Anita chatting with his wife Alvian familiarly.

"It's Anita's husband." Silvi pointed at a man passing by.

Not yet out of shock to see Anita, Indira again surprised by the fact that Anita was married. Seeing her husband Anita, Indira was even more shocked if she was no less handsome and dignified like Alvian.

Indira is speechless. He was just stunned trying to understand the circumstances that were going on.

"Why did Anita get along with Alvian and his wife? Why can Anita marry a man who is no less handsome than Alvian?" indira's murmuring couldn't believe it.

Silvi who slightly heard Indira mutter just smiled.

Next day.

Zayn and Lela had prepared to leave the Hospital, they were waiting for Zaidan to pick them up.

But suddenly both were shocked by the arrival of Ammar and his parents entered their room.

Ammar looked down embarrassed on a wheelchair pushed by his father.

"You must have known what it meant to come here."

Lela her husband was stunned not to answer.

"We want to apologize" said Ammar's father.

"And retract the report?" zayn said suddenly.

Both of Ammar's parents did not answer.

"No. I don't want you guys retracting the report. I just wanted to apologize." Ammar spoke up, leaving Lela and her husband shocked.

"I deserve punishment for everything I've done to you."

"Son." Ammar's mother saw her son. She was astonished that they had actually come here to want Lela and her husband to retract the report.

"I'm sorry mom. I just want to ask forgiveness from them. Regarding the police report, I've resigned. I deserve to be punished." Ammar looked at his mother sadly.

Ammar's mother was crying. He could no longer see his son in prison.

Ammar's father sighed. Actually he was quite shocked by the wishes of his son.

But he was even more surprised by the thought of the son who this time was quite mature because he wanted to be responsible for all his actions.

"Your son is right. Let him get punished for his actions this time." Ammar's father saw his wife.

Zayn glanced at the wife who had been standing next to him while looking down.

"I've forgiven you. But if my wife.." said Zayn glanced at his wife again.

"I've forgiven you too." Lela voices.

Ammar looks relieved.

"Alhamdulillah."

Lela raised her head slowly.

"The worst of your treatment. My wounds. My painfully. From now on I will not keep remembering those wounds, pains and pains. I'm not the person you hurt on purpose just turns out to be happy for me not your job. Thank you for teaching me so much in my life."
