Dikta POV's
Australia, I remember very well the purpose of my existence here. Not for sightseeing or enjoying the beauty of this country. I'm here because I want to see Nico's doctor and do medicine so I can recover so I'm not afraid to leave Aurora.
I know for a fact that my departure to Australia caused a misunderstanding. Especially when I'm here, my phone really can't be reached.
Not intentionally but, indeed doctors advise to focus more on treatment and must rest a lot.
Until the fifth day in Australia, I began to feel that all the treatment would be in vain. Why ? Because Nico's doctor suggested to do a heart transplant surgery. If, it was easy to do without being asked.
Unfortunately, finding a donor for the heart is very difficult to get. If I wait until there, I can't do it either.
Having already had the feeling that everything was going to end, I decided to prepare everything.
In the hospital room, tonight, I asked the nurse for a pen and paper. I decided to write a letter that I will direct to my dear wife — Aurora.
Actually, I really hope that the letter I wrote will never reach him because if this letter can get to Aurora it means that our world is different.
I wrote everything in the letter, everything I felt as well as apologies and birthday greetings to Aurora.
After writing this, I contacted Tasia who happened to be busy taking care of all kinds of engagement events. Again and again I have to trouble Tasia.
I asked to meet him. Despite being busy, Tasia still wanted to see me. Finally we met at one of the rooftop restaurants nearby from the hospital.
At this meeting I left a letter I wrote to Aurora. Initially, Tasia did not want to receive this letter at all. He even asked me to give it to him myself.
But, after we got involved in a conversation Tasia finally wanted to help me.
"You're definitely healing. Why prepare a letter like this ?" Ask Tasia.
"Finding donors is not that easy. I also feel that the time I have will not be more than two months." I answered casually.
"Why did you say that ? Do you have no faith in healing ?"
"I want to be healed but, if God has asked me to go home, what else ? Forcing destiny ? It's impossible." My words sound resigned.
"So, just a letter ? There's nothing else ? I'll help you." Tasia said.
"There's more. But, I'll tell you later. Not yet."
After handing over the letter to Tasia, I felt a little relieved. At least if later I have been told to go home, then I do not have to worry because I just leave without saying goodbye.
Me and Tasia didn't meet for too long at that restaurant. Tasia had to hurry home, her fiance was waiting while I had to go back to the hospital. Doctor Nico has asked me to come back.
During the treatment, exactly the tenth day I was in Australia, doctor Nico suddenly asked me to be here for a longer time. In a sense, I was not allowed to return to Indonesia according to the time I had promised Aurora.
When told like that, of course I strongly disagree. There's no way I'd break my promise to Aurora and say I'd be here any longer. I'm trying to defy doctor Nico. I told him I couldn't stay in Australia too long because someone was waiting for me to come home.
At first Nico's doctors didn't approve. He kept forcing me to stay on medication here but, my will won.
Although a little reluctant to give his permission, Nico's doctor still allowed me to return to Indonesia with a note in the following month I had to return to Australia and undergo treatment.
I agreed to that and finally got home in a bad condition. All I do is for Aurora. I knew the girl was waiting for my return.
You should know how happy I am when I can set foot back in Indonesia. At that time I felt so excited and happy. The sense of impatience because it will meet with Aurora is mounting.
Just landing and getting out of the airport, I immediately ordered a taxi and asked the driver to drive me home to Aurora.
Because indeed I did not take the earliest flight schedule, I arrived in Indonesia when the sky was about to darken.
I imagined, when I came home later I could immediately see a smile on Aurora's pretty face coupled with a hug she gave me to express all her longing but, everything I imagined turned out to be wrong.
Just now, he looked at me in a different way. I saw from the look in her eyes that Aurora was feeling so disappointed in me.
I can tell you that Aurora did smile at me but, that smile contained a sense of disappointment.
He said that if he would let me be happy with Tasia then, therefore, he dared to ask me to sign the divorce papers. He always does if he wants to see me happy but, how can I be happy without him ? Keep in mind that now the only person who can make me happy is Aurora.
People who succeed in being happy and passionate ask me to find happiness through others. Is that a deacon ?
I know that right now, he is misunderstanding. Therefore, I tried my best to explain but, he would not listen to her. Aurora is absolutely adamant about her decision to divorce. He chose to let go on the pretext that this divorce could make me happy.
As Aurora continued to force and urge me to sign the divorce papers, it felt like my chest was starting to claustrophobic and I had trouble breathing properly.
Sometimes I clap my chest hoping that it can reduce the pain but, in fact, the pain can not be controlled.
I didn't think any longer because of this pain. So I signed the divorce papers.
I am just a weak man who is so selfish as to want to have a lot of time with someone who is loved.
After telling Aurora to take care of her condition, I got out of the house to rush to the hospital.
In short, I was in intensive care for months in this hospital. Doctor Nico even took his time back and forth between Australia and Indonesia just for me. Tasia is also so, in the midst of her busy arranged marriage plans she still wants to take good care of me.
As my condition continued to improve, I began to think about quitting. Yes, I just feel bad for Nico and Tasia who have been patiently taking care of me. I am troubling them both too much.
"It looks like it's done." I said that sounds so lethargic because I don't have much strength left.
"Done what ?" Tasia asked while injecting the medicine into my infusion.
"I want to rest. It's been so exhausting." Answer me honestly.
"What should now ? You don't want to see Aurora anymore ?" I know that Tasia is still here hoping that I can survive.
"Now he's fine. He can live without me." My words sound pretty resigned.
"Two days away, Aurora's birthday. Don't you want to come to her birthday ?" Tasia tried to remind me of that important day.
"Just relax, I've prepared everything for Aurora's birthday. Gifts and speech."
"Aurora needs a gift and a greeting every birthday. So, you have to heal to do that." Said Tasia who kept asking me to endure the pain that I felt like ending soon.
"Every Aurora's birthday, she will continue to receive gifts and congratulations from me. I've prepared everything." My speech.
"What do you mean ?" Tasia asked who apparently still did not understand.
I let out a heavy-sounding sigh and then stared at the ceiling of this hospital room for the last time.
"I won't miss the most important days of Aurora's life." I said, closing my eyes slowly.
"If you don't want to miss it, then you have to heal first."
"Now I want to rest. Don't wake me up !" Last love.
