98. He remembers you

Ms. Ratna was a while checking Kirana's condition. Galih saw the worry on his mother's face especially Galih saw his mother biting her lower lip a sign of doubt, “Bu, Kirana why? My wife is fine, right? How's my baby?” ask Galih.

“Sabar first. We took Kirana to the hospital first to make it at USG. The problem is that I can't find your baby's heartbeat,” said Ms. Ratna slowly.

Although Ms. Ratna said it very slowly, but Galih who heard it was already too shocked. His grasp tightened on Kirana and Galih began to cry. He fused his forehead and the wife then kissed the face of his wife who was still delirious.

“Yes Allah protect my wife's child, please,” Galih's mind while peeping Kirana's forehead full of meaning and hope.

Ms. Ratna took Kirana to the hospital in her car. It was Mr. Aji who drove and took them to the hospital where Ms. Ratna worked. Once there is already a coworker Bu Ratna as well as the doctor in charge of Kirana who stands by waiting at the door of the ER.

It took more than 2 hours just to make sure Kirana and the baby in her womb were okay. Although Kirana had to be treated, at least Kirana and the baby were not injured. It's just that Kirana's psychic condition must be treated immediately. If not, the content will be directly affected.

Hearing the doctor's words made Galih's heart melt. His entire power just disappeared like a wind. Galih who was unable to stand began to walk slowly and sat himself in a row of waiting room chairs.The two parents still remained there. Ms. Ratna accompanied Kirana while looking for a room to stay for her daughter-in-law while Galih was invited by Mr. Aji to calm down outside the room.

“You haven't eaten yet, have you?” ask Mr. Aji to invite Galih to eat. It just so happens that Pak Aji has not eaten yet and the street food stall selling meatballs across the street looks tempting.

“No more appetite sir, Mr. I'm here alone no papa,” said Galih.

“Same with you, Father. Here you tell me why your wife can like that and how you have to deal with it,” said Mr. Aji.

With the lure of it finally Galih want to be invited to eat. He quickly spent his meatballs and immediately demanded Mr. Aji to tell a story.

“No patience you are exactly rich your mother,” said Mr. Aji.

Mr. Aji first sipped his meat sauce and devoured the crackers in his hands until only half was left. Mr. Aji deliberately made Galih wait for him to chew, “gini gini, earlier I've heard the story from your brother-in-law. Adnan said Kirana met again with the perpetrator who hurt her first. He just got out of jail some time ago and Adnan said he was vengeful,” said Mr. Aji.

“Yes Allah deserves that he always complains that his body is dirty,” said Galih.

“Your wife was once traumatized so deeply and you became convinced after seeing what happened today. The trauma never healed. He only forgot because there were a lot of people helping him. But because the trigger was present he so remembered back,” explained Mr. Aji.

“Then I return sir, do not have the heart to leave him alone,” said Galih.

“Ehh patiently first. Listen first, Father spoke. Really rich Ratna you are not impatient,” said Mr. Aji.

“Moreover the heck Sir,” said Galih.

“Bapak wants to say. My father realized something. Kirana never remembered any man. He doesn't even remember his own father and brother. It was even the same. He rejected Adnan and his father's presence but he could say your name. He remembers you,” said Mr. Aji.

“Whose word sir, he can enter the gini hospital also because of me,” said Galih.

“He'll call you ‘aa’ earlier. When you don't hear,” said Mr. Aji.

“Ya kept her relationship what Mr. she still hurt,” Galih finally greget too.

Galih realized that she had made Kirana even more panicked with her attitude. The shift that had been moving now sat back down. He deliberately ordered one more glass of warm tea and sipped it slowly. Mr. Aji who was sitting in front of him smiled and then resumed his meal.

“So another laper I Sir,” said Galih.

“Eat again. Mr. wis who treat.”

“gener yes Sir?”

“Iya. Wis there eat o sak satisfied you,” said Mr. Aji.

Galih was getting excited about receiving a call from Bu Ratna. Ms. Ratna said Kirana was fine and she was complaining of hunger. Ms. Ratna also asked Mr. Aji and Galih to bring dinner for them on their return.

Kirana is receiving a rant from Lucy over the phone when Galih and Pak Aji arrive at Kirana's room. Seeing the presence of her husband, Kirana immediately hung up her phone and put down her phone just like that.

“Mother out first for a while yes,” say goodbye to Bu Ratna on Kirana considering Kirana must still panic if you see there are other men around.

“Mother here aja,” says Kirana.

“Ma, pity you alone outside,” says Galih.

“Bapak tell me to come in,” Kirana said.

“You really aren't papa?” ask Mommy.

“Iya.”

The wider grin. He put down the package he was carrying and then walked closer to Kirana. Not forgetting he asked his wife for permission to embrace him and Galih hugged his wife tightly. Kirana tried to sit herself down and reciprocated Galih's embrace also putting her head leaning on Galih.

“Don't go anywhere yeah, I'm scared,” Kirana told Galih.

“Iya I will not go anywhere,” replied Galih.

Not far from there, Mr. Ratna and Mr. Aji observed. Both of them were relieved that Kirana was already fine. The two became calmer and Pak Aji deliberately photographed Kirana who was being embraced by her husband then sent it to Kirana's parents. He believes his co-worker and his besi must be waiting for news from the hospital even though he knows for sure they have heard it from Bu Ratna.

“Dek, Mas so miss you,” whispered Mr. Aji in the ear of his wife.

“I remember first, when my sister Princess was not there, you also treated me as sweet as Galih treated his wife. I miss my husband,” replied Ms Ratna.

“Yasudah because we both miss we kangen-kangenan yuk,” invite Pak Aji.

“Judah Same father Mother just go home. I take care of Kirana here,” Galih apparently heard it and with a smile he spoke, “Pak, Mom, no papa if you want to go home. Thank you for helping me and my wife,” said Galih with a smile.
