Chasing Dusk

Hospital

"Excuse me, is Dr Radit here?"

Ask Dusk at a woman dressed in a semi-black suit who looked busy behind the Information desk as well as the desk for VIP Patient Registration located on the 7th Floor of SS Hospital.

"Have an appointment?" Asked the woman without raising her head to just stare at Dusk, continuing her work of typing something while her eyes remained staring at the computer screen..

"But mbak. I'd like to see you for a second.."

"Cure or for a second you have to keep an appointment." This time the woman looked at Dusk rather cynically as she felt somewhat disturbed.

"At least Dr. Radit is now in the operating room." Continue the woman.

"Ohh.. Is it still a long time ago Rani? Can I wait?" Twilight read the little sign on the woman's shirt - R A N I -

This time Rani could not hide her displeased expression at Dusk.

'Who is he? Don't tell me she's Radit's doctor's girlfriend Tanya Rani inwardly gazing at Dusk, which she thinks is beautiful, but her clothes are very fashionable and very unlikely to be with her doctor Radit.

"Sorry mbak. Dr. Radit is very busy. I don't know how long the operation is. After surgery, many patients still need to be treated. So I better make an appointment first if I want to see you." Rani said with a ketus. "This section is exclusively for VIP patients." Further.

"Alright mbak. Sorry if I was interrupting. I'm saying goodbye."

"Monday...!!!"

A man hurriedly approached the new Dusk intending to leave. 3 Doctors with younger ages walked behind him trying to adjust the man's steps.

He looked at the man who approached him. The bayah man who appeared dapper in a black suit that looked expensive.

"Hallo and Anwar." Smiling looked at the man.

"You how are you? Tumben you're here" The man seemed happy to see Dusk and embraced the shoulder of Dusk intimately.

This time it was Rani who was staring at Dusk confused. There was a hint of anxiety emanating from his face. How did she get to know Dr. Anwar Sarifuddin, the Director of the Hospital? Moreover, He also knows doctor Raditya who became an Idol at this Hospital because of his expertise in surgery and also because of his good looks.

'Hopefully he didn't report my slightly rude attitude.' Rani murmured in her heart.

"Om fine. I'd like to see Radit's brother, but it looks like Radit's busy operating."

"Oh. Just wait in his room. Radit's done in a minute.

Jodi, you take Dusk to Radit's doctor's office." Doctor Anwar's order to a young doctor who had followed the Director of the Hospital with two other doctors.

"Sorry Dusk. Om there's a meeting. When do we meet. Someone wants to talk about it."

"Om fine. Later om can call Dusk if om is not busy.."

"Eh, you already know that Lia is going home today. In the afternoon he was in Jakarta."

"yes om. Last night Amel called Dusk."

"alright. How about tonight dusk stop by the house. It seems that the meeting again cooks a lot to welcome his beloved son."

"The plan is Om. Later in the afternoon Dusk want to pick up Amel at the airport and Amel anterin return home. Pity to take a taxi."

"OK okay. I'll see you at home tonight, yeah." Doctor Anwar patted slowly on the shoulder of twilight then stepped away with 2 other doctors.

"Yuk mba." Jodi said taking Dusk to go to Radit's doctor's room, after Anwar's doctor left.

Dusk followed the doctor's steps with a slightly filled posture.

"Please sit there. Doctor Radit is coming soon." Jodi pointed towards the black minimalist sofa located in the corner of the room.

"Sorry I'm staying. There's still a little work." Jodi said politely with a slightly reluctant tone because Dusk seemed to be familiar with the Director.

"Please mas." Dusk stared at Jodi who passed by and left her alone in a fairly large room with a set of furniture that looked expensive and classy.

Dusk looked around the room in amazement and pride. All the furniture is neatly arranged.

'Sister Radit turned out to be this successful.' Saying Dusk in the heart.

It has been almost 3 years since Dusk came to this Hospital. At that time, the Hospital has not been renovated as it is today, and also the room of Dr. Radit is still on the 3rd Floor because at that time there was no special room for VIP patients. Dusk staring at the signboard made of black wood located on a table measuring 1.5 meters with a beautiful name carving :

dr. RADITYA DIRGA SPBS

'Auntie must be proud of her son's brother succeeded.' Rona looks happy from the face of Dusk.

The door looked up as soon as it heard the door open. A young doctor still wearing surgical clothes walked into the room and headed straight for a large glass window, which featured a partial view at the back of the Hospital. He seemed busy talking on his cell phone without realizing that in the room, behind his desk, there was Dusk staring at him.

"Sorry sir. I can't do it tomorrow. Everything should stay on schedule sir. Tomorrow I have to deal with another patient."

" . . . . . . . . . . . "

"Indeed not a VIP patient sir. He has been my patient for a long time. I take full responsibility for him."

" . . . . . . . . . . . "

"Sorry sir. It's not a matter of money. I just can't just ignore my responsibilities."

" . . . . . . . . . . . "

"alright sir. Again I apologize. Good day."

Dusk stared at Radit who was just silently staring blankly at the view behind the window. It seems that Radit had not noticed the presence of Dusk in his room.

"What do you think, brother? Seriously very."

"Oh my God. Duskaaaaaaaaaa" Radit spontaneously shouted in shock at the presence of Dusk which he thought arrived.

"I miss brother" Dusk hugged Radit who was still silent and stroked his chest elus in shock.

Radit hugged Dusk and kissed the top of the head. "So, too, miss."

There was a little water at the end of his eyes, either from shock or from being moved to see Dusk that could be in his room.

Almost 3 years of Dusk never wanted to set foot in the Hospital, especially in the Hospital where Radit works.

"When have you been here? Why didn't you tell me you were coming?"

Radit pulled Dusk to sit on the black sofa in the corner of the room.

"I miss this is why I came here. Radit hasn't been home in a long time. Aunty's also miss Radit's sister."

Radit smiled at Dusk, the girl he had only known when he was in 4th grade Elementary school was already considered like his own biological sister. They grew up together.

"I miss my beautiful sister and my mother." Radit pinches the cheeks of Dusk. To him Dusk is still a little girl who wants to be kept spoiled.

"Son what the hell. Pain in the twilight cheeks."

Radit laughed lightly staring at the expression of Dusk who was sulking while stroking his cheek.

"Who called me? Seriously very!" Tanya twilight arrived considering Radit's conversation on the phone.

Huuuffttthhh..

Radit took a deep breath, as if trying to reduce the pressure inside him.

"Patient sister. He is one of the successful entrepreneurs and is a VVIP patient. He should be operating next week but he wants to be forwarded tomorrow because next week he has to go abroad for a very important business deal" he said."

Radit was silent for a moment, seemingly thinking about the caller's words.

"She's going to report her brother to the Director of the Hospital for refusing her request."

"Tomorrow, you really can't, can't you?"

Radit just nodded slowly.

"Tomorrow big brother there are two operating schedules. One of them is indeed a VIP patient as well, but there are 1 ordinary patient who only relies on middle-class insurance. I don't know where he got the information about the patient. He wants you to trade his operating schedule for a patient who is not a VIP. He felt entitled to special treatment and was willing to pay a heavy price."

"Can't he be treated by another doctor?"

"That's the problem. He just wants his brother to handle it. Brother also cannot ignore the other patients because his family already strongly believes in brother."

"Yes already. Just the real story on Om Anwar. He must understand." Dusk patted Radit's shoulder slowly hoping it would lessen Radit's mind burden.

"What if we had lunch? You haven't eaten yet, have you?" Dusk smiled, trying to divert Radit's mind.

"Don't eat lunch. My sister did not have breakfast. Where do you want to eat?"

"In front of the cafe RS only, brother. Don't be far away. Radit's the busiest guy, even going home doesn't have time." Sindir Dusk.

"Foolah. Brother change clothes for a minute"

Radit leaves the twilight and disappears behind the door to another room where Radit is always dressed and resting.
