Buih Becomes a Tapestry
Chapter 74



3 Hours later, the doctors and nurses were in the operating room. Then the color of the lights in the room turned on differently, it was a sign that the operation was complete.


A number of medical devices attached to Kevin's body are no longer there, but the man is not self-conscious.


While Arjun's body was immediately buried in the TPU area around. Alula and Kevin's parents came there.


After the funeral of the body was completed, a group of people there began to leave the TPU. Unlike Lula who still wants to be there by herself. On top of the red tomb, Alula was reciting and praying.


No one wants to lose someone close to them. Most of the people around her would not be prepared to deal with the event, although Alula also knew that death would not be preventable.


The death of a precious person like Arjun would leave sadness as much as a sibling would. Although not related to blood, Arjun is another family in life that he can choose.


Accepting his departure will be difficult as Arjun has a strong influence in Alula's life.


Then Alula put her hands together and began to pray "O Allah, forgive her and grant her mercy, save her from some things she does not like in nature. Forgive him and put him in the best place, and also begin your paradise. Expand the grave and bathe it with snow and ice water. Cleanse him of all the wrongs he has done. Goodbye, my friend!"


Seeing Alula's earnestness in prayer made Rita unable to hold back her tears again. He approached and shook his shoulder, "Alula, the more you are here, the more sad I am to see you. Let's go home, let Arjun rest in peace in nature!"


Alula swept her hands together and looked up at Arjun's mother. "I know Auntie. But please don't forbid me to visit Arjun's grave often!"


Rita shook her head and helped Alula stand up. "His life he never told me about you. And in the last moment of his life, I realized that he really liked you. It's worth letting some of her body live in the body of someone you love."


Then they left the funeral.

Vivi who should be happy to know that Kevin got a healthy heart but no, not the least he was happy. Instead, he feels slapped with Arjun's attitude that shows considerable love for others.


"I and my broken heart have agreed that we can never be together. Therefore it's as good as I can try to let you go." Vivi said as she lifted her leg leaving the funeral. His steps came to a halt when Nabil was right in front of him.


"Na-bil,"


"Splitting up only applies to those who love through the eyes. For those who love with heart and soul, there is no such thing as separation. You know what I mean by this phrase?" Nabil brought his umbrella closer so that Vivi's head was not highlighted by sunlight even though it was only 09:00.


"Are you mocking me?" vivi protests that feel cornered right.


Nabil shrugged his shoulders, "No, I'm just talking."


"But your words sound the same,"


"Different. I knew that the opportunity we made would be on my side. So, I won't be commenting much anymore."


"Nabil, you have no doubts about our relationship?"


"Why doubt? I'm sure you won't get close to my boss again."


"What if your guess misses?" Actually Vivi did not seriously say so, she only tested Nabil only.


"That's not my fortune."


Nabil's answer silenced Vivi and Vivi finally gave up on arguing. "It looks like my skin is burning."


"Let's go!"


"Hem,"


They're headed for the parking lot. Nabil opened the door for Vivi.


When both of them were in the car, Vivi held Nabil's hand so as not to start the engine first. Nabil looked over and looked at Vivi.


Nabil knew that Vivi was actually a good woman who only felt jealous. And he knew what Vivi meant to ask that.


"He's grieving right now, and he needs someone who can comfort him. Moreover, she is pregnant, very bad if she gets a lot of pressure. I'll take you to see him."


"Are you sure if he'll accept me ?"


"I know Alula, she must be very happy if her sister comes to visit."


"I'm not ready yet." Vivi is still hesitant to meet Alula.


"alright. Prepare your mind and mind. Whenever I'm ready to drop you off if you're afraid of being alone."


"No, I'll try to come by myself. Thank you Nabil!" then Vivi let go of Nabil's hand, letting the man touch the wheel.


Nabil doesn't mind Vivi's decision. At least that woman has changed a lot. To make Nabil steady and put in his heart the name Vivi there, to make Vivi as a life partner.

Slowly Kevin opened his eyes, felt his chest and clearly felt the stitches on his skin.


"Is the operation going well?" Kevin's eyes circulated, but not a single person was waiting for him.


Kevin tried to get up, but his body still felt weak. He gave up and chose silence.


A nurse came to check on her condition.


"You're a wean?" ask the nurse is friendly.


Kevin nodded, "Yes, Sister." Because he felt strange about everyone not being around him, Kevin asked, "Where is my wife, Sus?"


The nurse removed the infusion hose and replaced it with a new one, "Your wife is going to the funeral?"


Kevin frowned and mimicked the sister's saying, "To the funeral?"


The sister just nodded and didn't say much. Answer if asked.


"Who died?"


Sister already knows the series of events experienced by this couple, Arjun and Alula. So the nurse had promised not to tell her who her heart donor was.


"I know less. Maybe her brother." said the nurse was short and soon moved on from there.


But when the nurse turned her back, Kevin called her. "Suster, who is the man who donated his heart to me?"


Kevin's question is of course easy to answer, but the nurse has already promised the family. Then the nurse turned around with a smile. "Someone who had an accident and is not clear of his identity."


After saying that, the nurse left.


Kevin was confused by the nurse's answer earlier. First, if Alula goes to her brother's funeral, then where do people go? If he was in surgery, the closest person would be by his side.


But this was not, not a single person was beside him let alone he was already conscious and there should be someone waiting for him.


Second, a mysterious accident, who is that person and what connection is there that the person is willing to donate his heart?


Thinking of this, Kevin's head suddenly throbbed and in the end he fell asleep. Maybe the effect of the drug when the nurse was injected in the infusion tube.
