Come A Closer Love's

95

Now at a private hospital Marwah sat glued to see Erwin lying with some bandages and plaster on his face. It was as if repeating back the mass that became memories of both as children.

He held Erwin's fingers with a sad look.

" sorry," she wrote. But there was a phone call coming from his bag. So Marwah quickly took the phone and woke up while out of the patient's room where Erwin was lying.

Marwah picked up the phone quickly, because of the name that looks like Mama Wulan's name.

" hello mah??,"

" Marwah?? you where?? it's been 11pm, dear" asked Mama Wulan in an anxious tone that sounded clear.

Marwah just woke up. And he looks worried too.

" sorry mah, sorry Marwah was late mama, Marwah again in the hospital...,"

" what?? did something happen?? why you, son????" sela mama Wulan with tanyanyang.

" ah, not mah enggak, Marwah is fine, there was only a meeting Marwah had met and had to be taken to the hospital," he said lying.

" really??" asked Mama Wulan unsure.

" yes" answered Marwah quickly.

" are you sure??? mama's picking you up??,"

" ah, don't mah" he said quickly.

" mama is anxious" exclaimed mama Wulan with a tone of concern.

" Marwah is fine, believe Marwah will come home in the morning, promise," he said trying to convince the worried Mama Wulan.

Silent.

" well baby, tomorrow morning you go home, mama's anxious,"

" yes, mah,"

" be careful, son," said Mama Wulan remains worried.

" yes, I'm sorry mah, love you,"

And the communication was cut off with the long breath of Marwah as if it had gone off the sane limit.

" do you want coffee??" said Chandra's secretary to Marwah, who saw the woman look shabby with clothes that looked like there was a stain of Erwin's blood there.

" Hhmm," Marwah muttered softly as she was about to sit in the hospital corridor chair which Johan saw by staring straight at the screen of his cellphone.

" i'm bitter coffee," Johan interrupted, not looking at the secretary Chandra who went by leaving her second.

For a moment the mood was silent. Marwah was pensive with her own thoughts. While the lawyer Johan finally closed the screen of his mobile phone and a little splashed his back and legs casually.

Silent.

Silent.

Silent.

" How could Erwin be there??" asked Marwah flatly.

" what really happened?? you must know more details and why Erwin mas can be hurt like that???" said Marwah to Johan who looks relaxed.

" he came up with a change of plans, he almost killed Toni" Johan said

" what??" cried Marwah in disbelief. Then it seemed to wake up.

" it must be because of me" she wrote in a flat tone of disbelief.

" whatever it is, he messed up all the plans and almost made a new problem" Johan said.

" and you two are fools and selfish" Johan scolded Marwah with his sharp eyes.

Marwah was flabbergasted and she shook her head and woke up with an annoyed face.

" never judge us!!" hardik Marwah replied.

" it's not an easy decision, "he said upset at Johan's sharp remarks.

" then what?? you just think short and die a new problem??, too hypocritical," recalls Johan with his cynical face on Marwah.

" do you want to be praised???, that is not a noble act!!," exclaimed Johan humbling Marwah.

Marwah was stunned to hear Johan's accusations, he was upset and angry.

" as long as I can save someone who will believe in me unconditionally, then I will make the same decision, no matter if people judge me to be inferior or stupid, " marwah said with her emotional tone visible there.

And because he was too upset, he re-entered the room Erwin by leaving Johan fixated on Marwah's words that disturbed his mind.

Not long after, the secretary Chandra entered the nursery with a bitter coffee and a snack for Marwah who looked unmoved on the side of Erwin who was still unconscious.

" eat first Marwah," he said by putting two plastic foods on the front desk of the sofa of the room. Then he sat down with a little tired leaning on a soft sofa in the class of a luxurious living room.

" thank you Chandra, sorry to be taken" said Marwah slowly.

Chandra's secretary glimpsed Marwah's flat facial expression. An expression that cannot be explained.

" do you feel like you already know???" guess Chandra's secretary is ambiguous.

Marwah shook, he was silent, but did not know which one he just nodded his head as a signal to answer secretary Chandra.

" this is the 2nd time, Erwin fainted unconscious" said Secretary Chandra.

Deg.., Marwah's heart seemed to stop hearing the words of Chandra's secretary who shocked him. Sontak made Marwah turn to look at Sekertaria Chandra with a worried face.

" he means?? 2??" asked Marwah in doubt.

" previously Erwin had fallen unconscious when in Surabaya, at that time he was arguing fiercely with uncle and Saints,"

" what??"

" yes, when Erwin asked why Atmadja company suddenly pulled shares suddenly, it turns out that Atmadja company replaced the chairman of the Board of Directors by appointing Suci who became the sole heir of Atmadja Group," obviously Chandra's secretary by staring at the table .

Marwah heard with a fixation.

" when Erwin persuaded uncle to give a grace period to find other investors, Suci refuted by making an unexpected agreement" he said with a heavy weight.

" Suci said it would not be a fraction of Atmadja's money included in the Aritama Group without an agreement,"

" deal???," said Marwah slowly.

" Sacred asks Erwin to marry her as his condition,"

Marwah was flabbergasted in disbelief, what an absolutely insane Saint. He did not expect so much love and Holy obsession for Erwin.

" How can it be?" he said Marwah in disbelief.

Secretary Chandra smiled bitterly at Marwah's unexpected words.

" mas was not out of thought, how could Suci have such thoughts??, even though she is a good woman," said Secretary Chandra a little sad with a long sigh there, sighed, as if his chest was clenching.

" then??" asked Marwah still waiting for the continuation of Chandra's secretarial story.

Marwah was stunned, he bowed with regret, how he became insensitive to Erwin's health.

" Hospital doctors in Surabaya said that Erwin's blood clot occurred due to past trauma, maybe he had been hit strongly," obviously Chandra's secretary took the phone in his pants pocket and opened the file there and tried to read it.

" i don't understand the term medicine, but from the analysis of doctor Erwin will lose memory or sudden stroke or the worst possibility he can not walk perfectly if it is too late to deal with blood clots brain,"

Marwah was stunned, as if thrown into a deep spell. His heart ached like a sharp knife.

" what?? he will be deformed???," said Marwah softly with trembling lips to accept reality.

Secretary Chandra did not answer, but a nod must have caused Marwah's heart to melt instantly.

Slowly but surely Marwah's tears fell. He could only look at Erwin's face with a wounded heart.

🍃🍃🍃

Until late at night, after Secretary Chandra who chose to wait outside the ward. Marwah continued to look at Erwin's face with sadness.

Various thoughts alternately approached the mind of Marwah. Occasionally clutching Erwin's fingers that look there is an infusion needle stuck there.

The shadow of their togetherness was repeated in the heart of Marwah, until the words of Lady Aritama that hit in the heart of Marwah deepest.

" keep your love" Marwah recalled in her memory. Like it's a booster key.

Until the morning before Marwah who kept thinking finally rounded the throat. By waiting for morning hours, Marwah slowly left the room and pressed the phone number of Mama Wulan confidently.

He waited for an answer from the waiting tone of Mama Wulan's phone. Until finally the voice of a warm woman greeting with worry sounded there.

" hello Marwah???,"

" yes, mah,"

" do you want to go home??, mama pick you up, yeah," ..

" mah," interrupted Marwah to cut off Mama Wulan's words instantly.

" what is it?" asked Mama Wulan.

" sorry mah, can Marwah not take care of the bakery anymore??," he said slowly.

" What??" said mama wulan in shock.

" what's wrong??, you why? did something happen??" feline mama wulan pertubi bertubi on Marwah who is silent.

" not mah, not Marwah but mas Erwin" he said confidently.

" why? did something happen??,"

" Marwah wants to take care of Erwin's mas," he said trembling as his tears flowed with sobs.

And there was a long breath of mama Wulan as if she was out of her worries.

" don't discuss it here, go home, we'll talk together," said Mama Wulan wisely.

" yes mah, sorry," said Marwah by deciding his communication with Mama Wulan.

By taking a deep breath, Marwah tried to control the rumbling of her heart. This time he must be ready to be on the side of Erwin to not look sad until Erwin realized.

And Marwah went back into the room in surprise. Seeing Erwin who is now sitting down while getting up from his patient's bed.

" mas," welcome Marwah glad to see Erwin regained consciousness.

" why did you stop??," asked Erwin coldly staring at Marwah with his hand pulling out the needle infusion forcefully.

Marwah was stunned, and realized maybe Erwin had listened to her talk earlier with mama Wulan.

" I don't know, a little saturated,"

" don't stop!!," interrupted Erwin slightly angrily.

" no, it will waste time" Marwah insisted.

" MARWAH!!," snapped Erwin at the glued Marwah.

" wouldn't I let you leave your world, live your life?" pinta Erwin is angry.

" don't waste your dreams" he continued.

" is it because of Marwah??, is it all because Marwah, ah.., did not even mas almost kill Toni, and because it was wounded," he said sharply.

Erwin bergeming.

" Marwah," cried Erwin lowered his tone.

" Wicked!!," said Marwah trembling with tears in her eyes.

" do you think Marwah will be touched?" asked Marwah angrily

" NO!!," he said annoyedly.

" even Marwah will not thank you for the mas, Marwah will hate mas if mas kill and willing to go to jail," he said frustrated with tears accompanying.

Erwin was also ignited by anger at Marwah's emotional speech.

" then you?? do you think your actions are not the same as the ones I have made??" said Erwin.

" do you think I'll thank you??, you want to trade everything for that crazy deal??" asked Erwin in a high tone.

Marwah.

" it's all because of Marwah," she said.

" all this chaos is because of Marwah, therefore Marwah wants to save mas," he said sadly.

" No," Erwin interrupted by looking at Marwah's face.

" mum" he said slowly.

" Marwah has thought, mas is a person who can give everything, mas haru feel happy," said Marwah quivered.

Erwin was stunned to hear Marwah's deep words.

" so far mas has not lived happy things, mas continues to be haunted by guilt, so because of that, Marwah wants to give all that Marwah has for mas,"

" mas have to live a happy and healthy life" said Marwah sobbing in tears of sadness.

And Erwin flinch at Marwah's heartfelt cry for himself. With his instinct he walked a few steps until he grabbed Marwah's body and hugged her tightly.

Marwah greeted him with a bitter cry.

" did you know?? how scared Marwah was to see the mas fall bloody, Marwah was afraid to die in the arms of Marwah, like that dream," he said sobbing.

" don't go !!,"

" don't die,"

" never forget Marwah" she said with a broken cry in the arms of Erwin who was crying in silence.

The sound of Marwah's cry was heard by Aritama's mistress who joined in crying from behind the door of the room. His heart was saddened to hear Marwah's heart-wrenching words.

Until he could stand outside the room. He will not be able to calm the two who are really in the test of love.
