Black Swan's
"The Voice" Sian Story (Seventy Three)
“Hahh... hosh hosh!”
Olivia gasps in shock from her nightmare and soon wakes up from her sleeping position. The siren sounding so noisy outside Sian's house made him feel anxious and immediately walked towards the window to peek at what was going on. Unfortunately only darkness was presented in front of him other than the sound of sirens
who continued to roar through the streets in front of him. He decided to go down and wet his throat with a glass of water. The nightmare that came into his sleep managed to keep him awake and could no longer sleep out of fear. In his dream he saw both his parents and Sian
slowly move away from him. They all walked out of his life and left him alone who was busy roaring to call them all back. I don't know what the dream means, Olivia doesn't want to think about it. What he wants now is to calm his feelings that feel anxious and wet his throat that is quite choked due to nightmares that have disturbed the tranquility of his sleep.
Tong Ting
Olivia frowned in surprise and immediately walked towards the front door while dragging her aluminum wand. The rhythmic sound of the knocking of the stick sounded so contrasted with the sound of Sian's house bell continuously being rung brutally that it felt like Olivia wanted to yell at anyone who had been disrespectful and disturbed her calm tonight.
“Shortly.” shouted Olivia a little loudly while turning the metal lock hanging in the key slot. In one pull he managed to open the door wide and made the two guests standing in front of him frown in wonder.
“What is this true host Sian?”
“Yes right, sorry there is need do you come nights like this?” ask Olivia wonder. A speck of fear suddenly infiltrated his heart when the man who knocked on the door of Sian's house did not say anything and whispered about his blind condition.
“Master, are you still there?”
Olivia looks furious because the man did not say the purpose of coming to Sian's house just because he saw her blind. Indeed, he could not see how the appearance of guests visiting the house Sian nights like this. But he could feel if the guest was coming because it had an important purpose.
“Sorry, we just want to let you know if Mr. Sian had an accident.”
Suddenly Olivia's heart felt squeezed and spontaneously she held on to the door leaf
in front of him because both of his legs were feeling limp instantly. The news brought by the man in front of him managed to make his world feel spinning and make him dizzy. But he quickly regained his consciousness and tried to control himself from falling unconscious in front of the unknown guest.
“Whose side are you?” ask Olivia stammered. The two guests looked at each other and firmly said that they were the traffic police who handled the accident that hit Sian.
“Currently the state of Mr. Sian is quite critical in the hospital. Can you come with us as one of the family members of Mr Sian?”
“Tte sure. Wait a minute.”
Olivia immediately ran to her room and grabbed her jacket hanging behind the door. Feelings of fear and anxiety continued to haunt him until several times he stumbled on a chair because he could not control the pace of his hunting run.
“Let's go sir. Please take me to Sian.”
The three of them then rushed to the patrol car parked in front of Sian's house. The sirens sounded loud as the car slowly drove away from Sian's house and made Olivia's heart feel even more squeezed. He was afraid that something bad might happen to Sian. Moreover, he had just had a bad dream about Sian who was going to leave him with his parents. He did not want to lose Sian. He likes that guy. And he had not been able to repay the kindness of the man all this time. Then he begged God
in order to save Sian and give him the opportunity to repay all the good he had never done so far.

Four days in the hospital, Olivia felt her body was quite tired. But he still had to be there to help Sian take care of himself who suffered a broken leg and some ribs to his right. Now they both look so compact and complement each other. If Olivia doesn't have
eyes, then that Sian will be eyes for Olivia. While Olivia who will be a leg for Sian during Sian must be in a wheelchair due to the accident she experienced.
“Sian time to eat.”
Olivia groped the small table next to her and began to pick up a plate of rice that had been prepared by the hospital. Reluctantly Sian sat down a little and prepared to accept every mouthful of rice that Olivia would give her.
“I miss your cooking.” said Sian slowly when the food was already in his mouth. Being in the hospital for four days and continuously getting hospital food that feels bland makes it careless. He wants to eat Olivia's delicious food and is soon freed from the wheelchair that holds him.
“You're sick, don't want weird things. After all, hospital food is in accordance with the condition of your body that really requires a healthy nutritional intake. Be patient, if you recover later I will cook whatever food you want.”
“Appointment?”
“Hmm. I promise.”
Olivia nodded enthusiastically and smiled brightly in front of Sian. A warm feeling slowly infiltrated Sian's heart after he saw Olivia's sweet smile in front of him. Moreover, the woman had always accompanied him since he was sick, and perfected the disability he experienced due to the accident.
“Olivia, do you want to see again?”
“What? Of course, but I have to be patient because there is no donor cornea available for me.” replied Olivia as is. Sian was stunned and looked at Olivia inside. He then looked at his two legs covered by casts and also his body that had to use a buffer due to a broken rib he experienced. He's defective. Although the doctor said if all of it could be cured but still he would be disabled. At least for months to come he will continue to use a wheelchair and will depend on Olivia. It seems pointless that he is alive. It was a miracle that he survived and passed his critical period quickly after the doctor took action. But living with a lot of tools attached to his body makes him frustrated and also sress. He is not used to all the flaws he has right now. To him now he was just a useless man who was very troublesome.
“Sian, why silence? Let's eat again.”
Olivia held her spoon in the air when Sian never welcomed the food she gave. He then placed the spoon again into the plate and gently stroked Sian's face.
“What's up? Tell me.” said Olivia softly. Sian smiled faintly and brought Olivia's palm to her lips and kissed her gently.
“It's okay. Just bored.” replied Sian sounded dubious. But Olivia tried to get rid of all the bad prejudices that filled her mind by thinking about the fun things she could do with Sian during her illness.
“Sian, do you want to go for a walk? I'll push your wheelchair into the garden.” bargain Olivia
eager. Seeing Olivia who is so cheerful and can live her days with a tough make Sian envious. When compared to Olivia, her suffering was not comparable at all. Olivia, the woman lost
his vision function when both his parents had died and he had no one to complain about. It should be able to learn from the rigor created by Olivia. Unfortunately it's really not easy. Accepting what had never happened before in his life was really difficult. Moreover, all this time he had been accustomed to the ease God had given him, he could not pass through this ordeal easily. She cannot be like Olivia who can stand up to the bitterness of life that feels so bitter to her. He wanted to give a gift to Olivia. For the rigidity that had been done by the woman. And to thank you for the woman who has been with him all this time. Saving him from the void that had been shackling his soul.
“Good. Keep me entertained today.”

“Doctor, is this real?”
Olivia smiled when this afternoon doctor Hermes told her that he had gotten a donor who would give her corneas. The middle-aged doctor smiled happily at Olivia and nodded his head in response.
“Your operating schedule is the day after tomorrow. You should be completely healthy before surgery. Don't get too tired.” Hermes' doctor's message to Olivia. Olivia nodded her ass and immediately resigned to retreat to return to Sian's nursery. Today he would tell Sian if he could soon see a beautiful face
“Sian!”
Olivia screamed from the doorway and immediately startled Sian who was reading a book. The shady-eyed man looked at Olivia in surprise and immediately told Olivia to go inside his room.
“Sian, I have good news.” says Olivia spirit. He seemed to be impatient to say the good news he got from the doctor Hermes until he almost fell down because he tripped on a chair.
“Be careful Olive. You almost hurt yourself.” rebukes Sian worried. He helps Olivia get rid of the wooden chair that slightly blocks Olivia's long stick.
“So what's up? You look very happy.”
“Sian!! I got a corneal donor.” Olivia said girang. The woman jumped up and down happily in front of Sian and made Sian look up to Olivia's childish behavior.
“Hey, you can fall and fall on my broken leg.” Sian remembered when he saw who kept jumping around without heeding the circumstances around him. At once Olivia stopped jumping and immediately looked for an empty chair for her to sit on.
“Sian I'm really happy. Finally after all this time I waited, I was able to get that corneal donor as well.”
“Thank God then. After this you can see my handsome face with your clear round eyes.”
“You're right. It's been a long time I've wanted to see this handsome face of yours.”
Olivia stroked Sian's face and smiled sumringah in front of Sian. Seeing that Sian also smiled and slightly pulled Olivia's body to get closer to him.
“If you've got it, you should take good care of it.”
“Of course, I will definitely take very good care of it.”
“Do not use it to see things that are not not.” chuckle Sian. Olivia immediately pouted her lips and showed a sullen face in front of Sian. It made Sian could not help but kiss Olivia's pink lips which this afternoon looked really tempting in her eyes.

“Hold your promise.”
Olivia gaped in disbelief as she stared blankly at Sian. Just now he felt a soft latch on his lips. And he was sure if it was Sian's lips because a few seconds ago when the chewy thing stuck to his lips, he could feel Sian's warm breath blowing on his face.
“Sssi Sian..”
“I love you Olivia. I hope you have the same feelings for me because I don't like rejection.”
“Ssi Sian.. but I..”.
Olivia looked speechless and just stared at the place blankly. He did not know what to say to Sian now because he was still quite shocked by all the sudden things that happened to him today. But it is undeniable if he really likes Sian, loving his rescue angel who all this time only he heard his voice without ever seeing his face. If possible, he would like to give an answer to Sian after he gets his sight back. He wanted the moment to be the most memorable moment for him because on that day besides he would give an answer to the statement of love of his guardian angel, he would also see the face of his guardian angel for the first time.
“Give me time. I promise I'll give you the answer soon.”
“No problem. Because I'll wait.”

The day Olivia was waiting for finally arrived. After he had corneal graft surgery and rested for two days to wait for his condition to stabilize, the doctor will now open the bandage in his eye. Since waking up from her sleep this morning, Olivia has been looking forward to welcoming her new life after this. Life with
a world that would feel more colorful to her. He will no longer see the darkness in his life.
“You ready?”
Olivia nodded enthusiastically as she held the growing pounding in her heart. The sound of scissors slowly tearing apart the bandages covering his eyes sounded like the sound of a party trumpet that felt so exhilarating to him. Soon he will see the world. Soon he will see his angel.
“Well, not your eyes slowly.”
Olivia began to blink her eyes slowly and began to adjust to the light of the lights that felt dazzling to her new eyes.
“Olivia..”.
Olivia felt familiar with the voice and immediately turned to the side. With a furrowed forehead he looked at Sian as he let out his sad tears towards the man.
“Sian.. you...”.
Sian smiled. Staring at Olivia from the top of her wheelchair as she spread her hands to the side.
“Help me.”
Wiping her tears, Olivia jumped down from her bed and welcomed Sian's burly body that felt so warm to her.
“Sian, why are you doing this for me?”
Olivia sobbed in Sian's arms with increasingly heavy tears flooding her face. Now he could see how handsome the face of his beautiful angel was. Even in addition to having physical good looks, his angel also has good looks because he wants to donate his corneas for his happiness.
“Now we are the same and can complement each other. Please use one cornea of my eye well. Sorry I can't give you both.”
“No Sian, this is more than enough. Thank you for letting me see the beautiful world. I promise, I will always take good care of her.”
“And what about your answer? After you see me who is full of flaws like this, do you still want to accept me?”
Olivia closed her mouth which let out a sobbing and hugged Sian even tighter. Inside Sian's embrace he nodded his head many times and took pains to try to say yes with a more domineering, unwilling voice.
“Aak I accept you Sian. Ilove you. There is no perfect man in this world. I am not perfect either. But even so you have a perfect heart. Ilove you. I love you my angel.”
Together they will complement each other to face every obstacle of life they will face in the future. Although living with only one cornea and a wheelchair, it does not matter. As long as they are together, everything will feel complete and complementary to each other.
