Bento: The Real Bright Star

Times - Difficult Times

Arriving at the hospital, Betrand was immediately treated by a doctor. I was endlessly crying seeing my sister's state of concern.

" Of... Don't blame yourself ! It's not all your fault, Betrand will be fine ! " comfort Thoriq while sitting near me and stroking - elus my back.

I was silent, but my crying eased a little.

" It is yes ! We pray so that Betrand does not matter - napa " continued Thoriq with a big smile.

I just nodded.

Thoriq and his father kept comforting me and made me believe that Betrand would be okay.

Shortly thereafter...

The door to the IGD room opened, and the doctor who treated Betrand was standing near us.

" Doc... How is my sister doing ? " me ask while getting out of my seat.

The doctor exhaled slowly and said seriously...

" Thank God your sister was brought here as soon as possible. He's barely helped anymore...! " answer.

I just looked at the doctor while waiting for the next word with glassy eyes.

"...It is with a heavy heart that I say he had a concussion due to a violent impact on his head. But calm, the concussion experienced is relatively mild. Even so, he is currently going through his coma period "he continued.

" I'm sorry "The doctor passed.

Without a second thought, I immediately ran into the IGD room. My tears were unstoppable, as I stared at my sister lying limp with the infusion attached to her left hand accompanied by a breathing apparatus covering her nose and mouth.

I clasped Betrand's hand and stroked his hair while kissing his forehead.

" Bethan...! The strong dear "my whisper slowly.

I kept staring at the innocent face of my sister who was going through her critical period. In my heart I kept asking...

' Why is Betrand like this ? What's the matter exactly ? '

🌺🌺🌺

" Of... Already adhan Maghrib nih, pray first yuk ! " take Thoriq who from earlier turned out to come in this room.

" Uh... Yes Riq "I replied.

" So quickly wake up to deck ! Brother stay a while "my words while peeping Betrand's forehead.

After taking ablution, we also prayed together at the hospital mosque. After the prayer, I prayed fervently with tears, pleading for healing for my sister.

Thereafter...

" Of... You must not have eaten since noon, huh ? You go to the hospital first, I'm the same Dad went to the front to buy food" Thoriq said when we got out of the mosque.

I just nodded.

After Thoriq and his father went to the stall, I immediately rushed to the hospital.

Arrive - arrive...

When I was in front of the IGD room where Betrand was being treated, I heard a familiar voice in my ear.

" Mother." his words were so soft and anyone who heard them would definitely feel the pain in his heart.

" Mother... "

" Mother..."

" Bethan...! Why deck ? " reply with me while stroking her hair.

" Mother...? " quietly he held my hand.

" It's dear brother "I replied as he held her hand tightly.

Betrand immediately blinked - rubbing his eyes and he looked at me very shady.

" Sister...? " said.

Thank goodness...! Betrand.

" Yes, baby, why ? " i replied while looking at him affectionately.

" Mother...? Mother where is Brother? " he asked with a sharp breath - nasal.

I'm speechless.

' Oh my God... I have to how, it turns out my sister misses the presence of Mother at her side' my mind while looking at Betrand with no heart.

" Mother is busy. But I will definitely be here ! " please comfort me while stroking - elus his hand.

Shortly thereafter...

The doctor came in and checked Betrand. After that, I saw Betrand's breathing apparatus replaced.

Then I went out of the room to talk to the doctor.

" Thankfully, she made it through her critical period. And gradually the situation is much better than it was "he said.

" Thank God...Thank you very much Doc "reply me with a smile.

🌺🌺🌺

After that, I went back into the IGD room and shortly thereafter Thoriq and his father arrived.

" Hello...! Betrand realized "greet Thoriq with a friendly smile to my sister.

Betrand just stared at Thoriq limply.

" Yes Brother...! Betrand was already aware "my words representing Betrand answered Thoriq's question with a smile.

Thoriq went straight to Betrand and kissed her forehead.

" Oh...! Brother Thoriq until it comes far - far away to see Betrand "typalku.

Betrand just nodded.

" Oh yeah... Betrand eat first yes, let the spit heal ! " thoriq said while taking the food he had bought.

" Whoa...! Thank you, brother "said me again - again representing my sister.

" Absolute...!"

" Let the brother who bribes you" I said, and Thoriq offered the porridge to me.

' Oh my God...May this be the first and last time I see Betrand lying helplessly like this 'my inner self while feeding my sister painstakingly and affectionately '
