Prayers continued to come from the lips of a man sitting in front of the operating room. He sat alone on the long bench, his arm wrapped around a bandage to cover the wound he had just finished sewing.
Aji's head bowed, his fingers interlocked. He was restless because it had been an hour Intan was in the operating room. From the results of the doctor's examination that was done earlier when they arrived, Intan had a mild brain stutter and a crack in the cranium. The doctor also decided to perform surgery because the fractured Intan bone was inside, the doctor also had to rearrange the bone structure.
"Jn ...." Aji immediately straightened her body when she heard the voice of her eldest brother, Gus Sholeh. He looked at Gus Sholeh who was just sitting next to him.
"Tomorrow morning you have to come to the POLICE, you have to make a police report" said Gus Sholeh.
"Can't this case be closed, Mom? to be honest I'm reluctant to deal with the police, Mas. I want to focus on taking care of Intan." Aji looked at Gus Sholeh expectantly.
"Yes tomorrow, try to get this thing done. Your car is still there, there's some missing tools" Gus Sholeh said as he opened his leather bag, "this is your phone and Tata's, right?" Gus Sholeh hands over two cell phones to Aji.
Gus Sholeh averted his gaze when he heard the footsteps of someone, it turned out that Gus Aslam, the second son of Kyai Yusuf who was pushing a wheelchair Umm Sarah.
"Ummi's healthy?" gus Sholeh asked when Ummi Sarah was between himself and Aji while Gus Aslam stood behind Ummi Sarah.
"It has. Ummi is healthy, only Ummi's legs are sick," said Ummi while staring at Aji who was only silent with a straight forward view.
Umm Sarah just wanted to cry when she saw her son's face. Some of the bruises were clearly visible on Ajiโ's white face and the most stifling was when Umm Sarah saw the sadness that emanated from Aji's eyes.
"Why is Intan so badly hurt, son?" ask Umm Sarah while looking at Aji.
"It should be Aji who is in the position of Intan at this time," Aji regretted that made her two brothers turn their eyes towards her, "Intan grabbed Aji's body from behind when one of the criminals was about to hit Aji's head with wood" Aji said with his head bowed, his voice trembled because of the feeling that erupted when remembering the incident that befell Intan.
Ummi Sarah smothered her mouth after hearing the story told by Aji. He felt even more guilty to Intan, because he had looked into the eyes of the tattooed girl.
"Yes Allah ..." murmured Umm Sarah with a roaring sobbing.
Both of Aji's sisters could only sigh after hearing the story. They were also sad to imagine how the current state of Intan. Everyone was pensive in each other's minds.
A few dozen minutes later, the red light that was burning above the operating room door had been extinguished. The operating room finally opened wide, two nurses pushed Intan's gurney out of the operating room.
Aji stood up from his place, nursing the two nurses to the ICU room. However, Aji's steps must come to a halt right in front of the ICU room.
"Sorry sir, you can't go in. The patient has not passed his critical period. You can monitor the state of the patient from the glass that is there," said the nurse guard the ICU room.
Aji finally went to the place appointed by the nurse. He stood there staring at Intan's weak-looking body, his head wrapped in bandages, some medical equipment was attached to the helpless body
"Son, how's Intan doing?" ummi asks Sarah after being behind Aji.
Umm Sarah gave the code to Gus Aslam to help him stand. Ummi Sarah wants to see firsthand how the current condition of Intan and finally Ummi Sarah can stand with the help of Gus Aslam and Gus Sholeh.
"Yes Allah .. Forgive me O Allah!" Ummi Sarah was hysterical when she saw Intan lying weakly inside the ICU room.
"Mi, don't be hysterical Mi! it's the middle of the night Mi" said Gus Aslam as he grabbed Umm Sarah's body.
"Mas! Take Ummi home, let Ummi rest at home! I want to be here by myself" said Aji, looking at Gus Sholeh with a meaningful look.
The three handsome men also persuaded Umm Sarah to want to go home. Ummi Sarah is still fascinated in the arms of Gus Aslam because she is truly sorry for all her attitude today.
"If Intan is conscious, Ummi can come back here again" said Aji while looking at Umm Sarah with dewy eyes.
After a few minutes of persuading his Ummi, Gus Sholeh and Gus Aslam finally managed to bring Ummi Sarah home. The atmosphere of the hospital was increasingly quiet because the time indicator was right at twelve nights.
Aji threw herself in the long chair in the ICU waiting room. He threw himself in the long chair because his body began to feel pain. The stitch wound on his arm was painful and hot.
Aji reached into his pants pocket when he felt a vibration in the pocket. Aji sees Tommy's name written on Intan's phone screen and finally Aji decides to answer the phone.
"Tan! Intan!" there was a sense of worry there.
"Bang, this is Aji. Right now Intan is still in the ICU room!" said Aji in a soft voice.
Aji also tells Tommy about the events that just happened. Aji tells Tommy how the current state of Intan is, of course what Aji conveyed managed to make Tommy furious.
"Intan was treated at RSUD Jombang, Bang," Aji said before the call ended.
