Doctors ordered the nurse to transfer Laurence to the ICU as her consciousness declined.
"But, why is a papi like that Al?" asked Sena with trembling body.
"Calm down, let the doctor handle your papi first. You calm down." said Albert tightly hugging the woman.
"Why is it like this?" asked Sena in her tears.
After a while the doctor who handled Laurence came out of the ICU room. Without warning Sena stood up from her wheelchair and approached the doctor.
"How's my papi doc?" ask Sena impatiently.
"You're Mr Laurence's daughter?" ask the doctor.
"Yes, I'm his daughter. How's condition?" asked Sena again made the doctor sigh slowly.
"Maybe we better talk in my room, miss. Because I have a lot to explain to you" said the doctor.
"Okay doc" said Sena then followed the doctor's steps along with Albert.
in the doctor's office,
Sena, accompanied by Albert, was sitting in front of the doctor. Waiting for an explanation about Laurence's condition which was suddenly unconscious.
"So, this Mr. Laurence is my patient. He had a heart attack a few months ago. It should have been an operation a long time ago, but Mr. Laurence's condition is unlikely to undergo surgery. Because in addition to his blood pressure is always high, plus his old age makes us have to think again to do surgery on Mr. Laurence" said the doctor explained.
Sena was speechless to respond to the doctor's explanation. Her tears could no longer be contained. His hands had even been swiftly closing his mouth preventing the sobbing that might come out with a bang.
"Is there any other solution, doc?" ask Albert.
"While this does not exist, sir. All we need now is to lower Mr Laurence's blood pressure then we'll be ready for his surgery. But it was a little difficult because Mr. Laurence's desire to recover was small" replied the doctor.
"We're gonna try to get him excited to heal, doc. There's his daughter here, Mr. Laurence will definitely be trying to get well for his daughter" Albert said.
"Yes, I hope so too. Because as far as I know Mr. Laurence's daughter disappeared a long time ago. That's why I was shocked when this lady said she was Mr. Laurence's daughter. Hopefully with the presence of the lady, Mr. Laurence's spirit to heal is getting higher" said the doctor hoped.
"Darling, let's go back to the room. You need to rest." take Albert.
"I want to accompany you."
"Yes, later after uncle's circumstances it is better that we will be able to enter. Now's not a good time for us to meet uncle."
"But." said Sena.
"Dear, please. You also need to rest" said Albert lowering his voice and Sena nodded in agreement to Albert's wishes.
The next day Sena was let home by the doctor. It should be a happy time for him because he has been allowed to go home and return to country X. But things are different now, Sena has to postpone her return. It was impossible for him to leave the father in such a sorry state as he was currently.
"Bapi, Sena is out of the hospital today. Sena will accompany and keep papi here. So papi has to get up, okay." said Sena stroking the back of Laurence's hand gently.
Thankfully, Laurence's condition was better so the doctor again placed him in the usual care room, no longer in the ICU. So Sena and Albert can freely go in and out waiting for Laurence.
It has been two days since Laurence's critical state of consciousness declined. And Sena faithfully accompanied beside him. Albert, too, patiently encouraged and accompanied his beloved.
"Al, don't you have to go back to country X?" sena asked as soon as she saw Albert enter Laurence's room.
"I can put it off, baby. I'll keep you company longer" Albert said looking at Sena's face.
"Don't, you should go home. Poor dad if you have to take care of the company for so long. Dad needs a break, too, Al" Sena said.
"But....."
"I'm okay, really. When the papi state improves, I'll be home soon" Sena said as if she knew what Albert was thinking.
"Alright, let me think it through" Albert said, then walked out of the room.
"Sena?" call Laurence lirih.
"But papi is awake. Let Sena call the doctor first yes, pi." said Sena then ran out of the room. So happy, he even forgot if Laurence's room had a button that could directly contact the medics.
Shortly after, the doctor came with a nurse.
Doctors carefully examined Laurence's vital signs.
"Thank God, now Mr. Laurence can come out of his critical period. But his blood pressure is still not normal" the doctor explained.
"Thank God, thank you doctor" Sena said.
"I'll excuse you then. Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen." said the doctor to the nurse.
"Good afternoon, doc."
After the doctor died, Laurence opened his eyes again.
"Damn?" call Laurence in a hoarse voice.
"Yes, papi wants a drink?" asked Sena gently then in response to a nod by Laurence. Sena also gave water and petrified Laurence to drink it.
"Thank you, son." said Laurence after drinking the water in the glass from Sena's hand.
"Already, don't talk too much. Papi has to get back to rest" Sena said, then sat down next to her father.
"Where's Albert?" laurence asked because he did not find Albert around him.
"He's out, pi." replied Sena.
"But listen you're getting married."
"Yes, right. Therefore papi must be healthy in order to attend my wedding."
"But wants to see you get married before papi's time runs out."
"What the hell is that talking about. Papi will live a long time. Anyway, papi has to meet papi's granddaughter."
"Alnorld?"
kink, czech,
"Hee, how does papi know my son's name?"
"I told uncle. I'm sorry, honey. Even unbeknownst to you I've brought them together" Albert said suddenly after he entered the room.
"What's? Why didn't you tell me?" tanya Sena sharpened the matanyam
"Emmm, long story. hehehe. How's uncle doing?" albert asked to switch the conversation.
"The fire is past its critical period. Look, my papa is already looking healthy" Sena joked that the father was more eager to get healthy soon.
"When are you married?" ask Laurence.
"Fastly." replied Albert glancing towards Sena.
"But wants you to get married as soon as you get out of the hospital." Laurence asked.
"Alright, be healthy first. After that we'll get married" Sena said.
Sena did not realize, if the sentence she just uttered made a man standing nearby smile happily half dead.
