Cidro (Between Love And Wounds)

Chapter 46

Lemas sudah seluruh tubuh Bu Mirna saat mendengar penjelasan dokter itu. Hatinya terasa hancur mendengar anaknya terluka parah dan harus menjalani serangkaian perawatan.

"What... does Citra heal Doc?" ma'am Mirna asked with a trembling voice holding back the cry.

"There's a possibility of that, ma'am. We just pray that Citra can pass the critical period," replied the doctor.

"We are also waiting for the results of CT SCAN Citra examination. Hopefully the results are good" said the doctor again.

After talking to the doctor, Ms. Mirna came out of the doctor's office. Miss Mirna stepped on gontai. His body seemed to have no power to simply walk. Then the woman sat on the bench next to the doctor's office.

Tears slowly dripped from both of her cheeks. His heart was broken after hearing the doctor's explanation. Although Citra is not her biological child, but her affection for the girl is very big.

Sobs began to sound. His chest felt tight considering what the doctor had said earlier. When he was this upset, a voice rebuked him.

"Ma!"

Miss Mirna raised her head. He looked towards the person who was reprimanding him.

"Father!"

His lips were shaking more and more. Her crying sounded more heartbreaking. Mr. Bayu immediately hugged his wife. The man tried to calm his wife's cries.

"We just pray for the best for Citra," said Mr. Bayu.

Miss Mirna nodded in her husband's arms. The woman looked fragile and felt devastated at this moment. In the heart of the woman hopes that the child can continue to pass through the critical period.

"So Papa was told Anne that Citra was already lying in the street when she just got out of class" said Pak Bayu.

"Yes Pa. Anne said the same to Mama. Why should I have Pa Imagery? Wh why? Mama felt failed to keep the image. Mama feels guilty for the late Ma'am Ambar Pa." Ms. Mirna said on the sidelines of her sobs.

"Don't blame yourself. Now we focus on Citra," said Mr. Bayu calming.

Miss Mirna nodded her head. Then he said, "so the doctor said he was still waiting for the CT SCAN results. The results are out tomorrow. Hopefully all good. Hopefully there are no deep wounds in the head of Citra."

"Hopefully. Let's just pray" said Mr. Bayu.

"Now we're going to the kids! Poor them waiting for us in the waiting room," asked Mr. Bayu.

Miss Mirna agreed. Then the two walked towards the waiting room in front of the ER.

"Where's Anne?" Ask Ms. Mirna who didn't see her son.

"Azwan went to Ma's school. He said he wanted to ask about the chronology of the accident that happened to Citra," replied Anne.

"Azwan was here? Doesn't he have a game at another school?" ask Mr. Bayu.

"Yes Pa. Just now after hearing that Citra was in an accident, Azwan came straight here." Ms. Mirna answered Mr. Bayu's question on behalf of Anne.

Mr. Bayu nodded his head. "Now we pray first. We pray for Citra" said Mr. Bayu.

"Papa and Mama salat. Anne did not pray. Anne wants to be here" said Anne.

"Why?" ask Mr. Bayu.

"Anne's monthly guest comes Pa" replied Anne.

"Yes already then. Papa same Mama to mushala first yes. You are here," said Mr. Bayu at last.

Meanwhile, Tian seemed to be agitated. Since the incident in front of the teacher room yesterday, he has not met with Citra again. He's been trying to contact the girl, but he's always been unappointed.

"Where are you going Cit?" tanyakanya. His eyes were staring at his phone displaying Citra's contacts.

"Wouldn't she be jealous seeing me with Luna yesterday?" continued.

A smile was etched on his face. His heart was flowing when he thought about it. His face suddenly warmed up imagining a jealous image of him seeing her close to another girl.

"If he's jealous, then he's got a taste of me?" muttered. The smile grew wider on his face.

"Aarrrggghhh! Just make the heart already dig dug. What if he really has the same taste as me. Waah definitely added a pause jedug deh," he continued.

Tian's delusion is getting everywhere. Without him knowing, the person he was talking about lay weakly on the hospital bed. Fighting between life and death. Struggling through his critical period in order to be reunited with his family again.

...****************...

The night is coming. The sky turned dark without stars. There is only the moon hiding behind the dark clouds.

Anne and her family still faithfully await Citra who is still unconscious. The girl's eyes were still closed and somehow it would open again.

"Feed Pa, Ma!" Azwan came with a bag of food he bought in the hospital cafeteria.

"Mama doesn't appetite Wan. Mama can't swallow food if Citra hasn't opened her eyes" Ms Mirna said. His eyes looked at Citra who was lying in the ICU room through the glass window.

Azwan sighed. "Mama should eat. If you don't eat, you will get sick. The image must be sad if you see Mama kayak gini," said Azwan. The boy tried to persuade his mother to eat.

Miss Mirna flinching. The woman was still staring into the room with tears in her eyes. His heart was broken seeing the image lying helplessly inside there.

"Ma!" This time, Mr. Bayu persuaded his wife. He was just as broken as his wife. Moreover, Citra is his biological child.

"Mama eat yes. Don't let your mom get sick, too. True said Azwan, Citra must be sad if you know Mama like this," said Mr. Bayu. His hands gently stroked his wife's back.

Miss Mirna still isn't moving. The woman was still staring inside. Viewing the body of the image fitted with various tools.

"Eat ya Ma" said Anne. The girl was equally sad. He felt guilty for leaving Citra alone until the horrific incident occurred.

"See the children of Ma. Don't be like this" said Mr. Bayu.

Miss Mirna seemed to wake up. He then said Istighfar in heart. The woman repeated it until her heart felt relieved and comfortable.

Finally, Miss Mirna wants to eat. His eyes occasionally stared at the door of the ICU.

"Other to Ma? Anne is not finished. A lot of this is the rice," said Anne.

"Lo's tumben is not over? Usually also rice padang two servings also lo swallow itself," cibir Azwan.

Anne glared her eyes at Azwan. Regardless of her twin sister's scorn, Anne gave her name to her mother.

When they were enjoying their food. Suddenly the doctor who handled Citra walked hurriedly and immediately entered the ICU room. A nurse came out of the ICU quickly.

"What's the Sister?" ask Miss Mirna.

"Patient experiences...."
