Finished driving father and mother to the car that was driven by one of the father's subordinates in the office, I immediately prepared. The show starts at 9 a.m. I don't want the Director nagging me just because of the delay. I must practice the professional discipline of medicine in my duty to the best of my ability. I'm prepped. While packing his mouth again mother's words before returning to Mentok to me and bang Zamy.
"Maybe you will feel awkward if you always talk about your marriage.28 years you feel as a sibling. But don't ignore my son, time goes on, mom and dad are getting older. Give us happiness in old age. Think about the right time to get married. Give us many grandchildren, bright grandchildren, sholih and sholihah grandchildren." That was my request before returning to Mentok.
"Stay guarding each other, don't ignore each other." That sentence may have been spoken thousands of times from the lips of the mother.
"Zam!"
"Yes mother."
"Mother take care of your sister, please take care of it completely. If he comes home by 12pm, you'll have to deliver him. You just sleep in this house, don't go back to the clinic." Bang Zamy just nodded.
"Naura!"
"Yes mother."
"Take care of yourself, don't silence your brother again. Act mature. Don't think too much about what people think. After all our lives, we who live are not others." So the real wejangan repeated by the mother. I didn't answer, but just kept quiet and nodded occasionally.
***
"Tok tok!" Suddenly a knock on the door surprised my daydream.
"Naura. Is it ready?" I heard the sound of bang Zamy from outside the room.
"Lho's? Why ask Naura bang. Naura can drive herself later. Naura there's an event today at the hospital." I spoke while putting on my socks without opening the door.
"She's looking forward to the clinic, please anter brother first, brother's car in the clinic." Bang Zamy spoke again. Since there was a father and mother, bang Zamy did not bring his car to the house on New Street.
"Yaaah.., brother, Naura will be late first." I'm taking objections.
"The road is on the deck. Stop 3 seconds brother down take the car. I'm also in a hurry." Bang Zamy begged again.
"Atauuu. The key is in the side hanger of the tivi." I held my head out from behind the door. Face bang Zamy instantly pouted. He took a deep breath and exhaled slowly while shaking his head. I see a disappointed face there. But I try not to care.
"Oh Nauraaa.., want nebeng to take you to the clinic to take the stingy car for mercy. What the hell was that thinking." Bang Zamy passed with a face of annoyance and disappointment. I saw him grab the jacket he hung on the living room couch, put it on, and not forgetting to stick his briefcase to his shoulder, then he walked towards the garage after picking up my official car keys, red license plate car with 1 passenger seat row. I smile. I'm lazy to go with bang Zamy about it already promised Aunt Sofie over the phone connected Irwan. I'll pick her up to go to the hospital together, as I promised because Aunt Sofie asked. Aunt Sofie was apparently also invited on behalf of the Provincial PKK, one of the formalities hurrah teams. I hurried. I also stick the bag to my left shoulder. I'm ready to pick up Aunt Sofie. But I paused the departure because I hadn't heard Zamy's car come out of the garage. A few minutes later because I had not left I tried to tidy up again the hijab I was wearing. Several times I heard bang Zamy tried his car starter but failed. My service car seems to be on strike because of the rarely used and lack of maintenance. Finally, fearing that it was too late, I immediately finished my preparations. Taking the phone with the charger and putting it in the bag I was carrying, I immediately put on my fancy watch. Then in a bit of a hurry I called bang Zamy. It means saying goodbye to go first.
"Zamy Bang!" I called him but there was no word.
"Bang Zamy's...." Still no answer. I ended up looking in the car garage, but there was no one there. I then headed to the kitchen and found that Yuk Mairoh was cooking while looking around. Looks like he's cooking with a google recipe again I thought.
"Yuk Mairoh, where's bang Zamy?" I asked.
"Just go see a doctor."
"Yeah yuk, huh,? Just now he's in the garage turning on the swift." I scrunched my forehead.
"So he said he was in a hurry, while the doctor's car broke down, here's the key he returned." Yu Mairoh pointed to the ceramic table. I saw next to the stove I had my car keys. I picked it up and put it back on the hanger.
"Keep she ride what was yuk?" I'm starting to feel bad. Because I saw my motorbike and the motor yuk Mairoh are still in the garage.
"Say I'd run all the doctor's sports." Yuk Mairoh replied.
"Why isn't he on a motorcycle?" I asked back.
"The doctor forgot yes, sir the doctor is still traumatized bring his own motorbike out of accidents the other day." As soon as Yuk Mairoh replied. The deg! My heart is pounding. The bad taste is becoming. I'm going to the garage next to where my fancy car is parked. I turned on the engine, then without waiting for long I slid out of the fence, entered the main road on Sudirman street. I'm trying to catch up with bang Zamy. I walked the road we used to go. Nil. I turned back around, trying to go down another alternate path. I went through Aunt Sofie's house but haven't stopped to pick her up. I traced Sudirman street to the clinic and I didn't find anyone walking around like bang Zamy. I'm getting panicked. I tried many times to call her hanphonen number, but her phone was not even active. I finally went to the clinic. It is impossible to bang Zamy on foot, surely he is already there by riding other vehicles, is there no ojol? isn't there a grab? I drove my car to Bangka Street where Honey Bee clinic is located. I saw Mang Ridwan half-running near me who was struggling.
"Why is the doctor in such a hurry? Where's the doctor?" Mang Ridwan the clinic keeper and gardener bang Zamy asked.
"Hasn't he arrived yet?" I was even made more confused.
"So early in the morning he said tell readyin 2 sets of work clothes, a set of sleepwear, a pair of shoes and singlet also anu. But until now there hasn't been." Mang Ridwan explained.
"Really doctor. That's the suitcase I've prepared, I've been waiting here but you're not there yet." Mang Ridwan pointed to a small suitcase containing equipment requested bang Zamy. I tried calling him again but he was inactive. I'm getting panicked. Where's she? Why haven't we arrived yet. Suddenly Irwan called, I tried to ignore him and tried to contact bang Zamy, but again the phone was not active. I don't know how I finally got Irwan's call.
"Hello assalamualaikum Wan?" I opened the conversation.
"Hello Nency baby, you didn't forget to pick up your future mother-in-law right?" Irwan joked that even more irritated me.
"What the hell are you? Tell Aunt Sofie to wait a minute. I'm already on my way." I answered.
"Pipetan Doraaa.., it's almost nine. The invitation is nine o'clock. Aunty friends will come first...." I heard aunt Sofie's voice connecting.
"Yes aunty sorry. Just wait a minute. Or aunty for help anter with Irwan aunt, sorry, because Naura has a sudden job. " I lied.
"Ohhhh.., don't Dora, aunt wait ayeah. You just finish it first. Aunty period is cool to wear the best clothes, will ride your luxury car must ride Irwan's king motorbike. How you...." Aunt Sofie cursed in the middle of her becak.
"Yes, I've been waiting for Naura for a minute." I answered listlessly.
"Wait for a beautiful doctor." As soon as Irwan ends.
"Yes yes."
I looked back at Mang Ridwan. My eyes were also watching for the Zamy bang towards the ends of the road. I waited for a few minutes but never came. I tried to call many times not active. The director has sent a message many times.
"Mother doctor, our show was postponed to 10 o'clock yes, come immediately even if the show was postponed." I glanced at the message of Depati Hospital Director Hamzah Pangkalpinang, Mr. Ram.
"God willing, sir." I typed a reply message.
"Don't be late." Return the incoming message from him.
"OK sir." I answered again.
"hunts." I just read Mr. Ram's last message without any intention of replying. I went out of the clinic feeling unwell. I really want to scream, cry calling bang Zamy like the old school days when bang Zamy 3 days following scout activities not coming home. I was escorted by my father and mother to the location because of the pain of long separation with her. I used to miss him so much. Just like now. I really miss his presence. I feel so sorry for refusing her to ride in my car just for fear of feeling uncomfortable with Aunt Sofie. Kususuri the clinic yard with shaky steps to where my car is parked. Without me knowing I shed tears. I was guilty, I felt so guilty for my brother who loved me so much from childhood.
''Dedek aangun..., dedek awun angis mother..., dedek awun....., dedek awun dedek, iat tu angis acian mother, wake up Ula awakun angis mother....'" Back to mom's story. How long ago I was no longer alive. My brother kept trying to wake me up. He seemed destined to be my protector. But I always disappoint him. My tears are dripping again. "Dedek awun..., dedek awun angis mother.., dedek aangun...., dedek aangun dedek, iat tu angis acian mother, Ula awakunlah angis mother....". Those words are getting louder in my ears. While crying I crossed the street in front of the pharmacy because my car was parked there. All of a sudden, from the right direction a black Avanza was speeding. I gasped for dead steps. Then instantly there was a hand pushing me from behind.
"Doctor's attention!" Mang Ridwan yelled and fell after pushing me. I immediately got up and helped Mang Ridwan.
"Mang Ridwan, did Ridwan get hurt?" I checked his whole body. Thank God only blisters on both knees and palms.
"No doctor. Doctor don't daydream in the streets, doctor's danger." Mang Ridwan reminded me. I'm nodding.
"Thank you mang, without the help of Mang Ridwan I don't know what has happened. Let me treat the wound first." I brought mang
Ridwan returned to the clinic.
"Eeeehhhh no need for a doctor. Later according to the instructions of the doctor first, mamang will clean the wound with clean warm water, then mamang treat yourself. It's in the back of the box." Mang Ridwan rejected me. I just nodded.
"Well if Naura has an event at the office, Naura goes first." I say goodbye to Mang Ridwan who went straight to the main house after closing the front gate of the clinic. I turned around, back to the back road of Jamik Mosque to pick up aunt Sofie who had called me many times.
***
5 Minutes later, I parked on the roadside in front of Irwan's house. I took the phone out of the bag to call Aunt Sofie. But I was just about to press call I saw in front of the door Aunt Sofie was wearing high heels. She was wearing a whitish blue PKK uniform with a hijab going in on the ape shirt. His hand was carrying an expensive red bag. Her pretty face was radiant with red lipstick. His eyebrows straight uphill swerving once forming a beautiful arch at the end of the increasingly smaller. Reddish brown eyebrows that increasingly mark aunty Sofie is not a random person. The ring almost filled all the fingers. I made sure both the ring finger and middle finger each contained 2 large rings. His necklace is as big as a chain necklace of thugs.
I opened the door with the remote, Aunt Sofie smiled at me. She sat down gracefully, her handbag placed over both thighs.
"Sorry aunt, Naura's late for the pick-up." I talk while driving a vehicle. Aunt Sofie nodded again. His head turned towards the back of the car. His eyes were busy looking at the car.
"It's okay Nora. The important thing is that aunt has been picked up and can feel the luxury car ride like this...." His eyes were still staring at all corners of the car. I brushed off bad thoughts about her that were too glamorous but looked lonely.
"We're not too late either. The schedule's backdated to ten." I added.
"Huh? Time so?" He asked directly.
"Yes, the director just said." I continue.
"Ah The Rout. What's his name, the Ram was a time when he could be scared. Trash so. Uhhh...." Aunt Sofie immediately misoh-misoh shrugged her shoulders. I looked at him briefly.
"What happened to Ram Aunty? Mr. Ram is good." I defend.
"What okay? Maybe just pretend he's good, so he can be raised to be scared." Aunt Sofie spoke again in a hateful tone.
"Hmmmzz.... Nor...."
"Naura aunt...."
"Yes yes Naura. Auntie said yes.., but don't tell anyone. It's kosher...." Aunt Sofie brought her mouth closer to my side. Even though he did not approach his voice was already up to a radius of 10 meters.
"What secret is aunt?" I'm very curious.
"Then, when Ram was a regular doctor, he was engaged to Mira. Anyway from High School they're already together."
"Who's aunt?" I asked again.
"That's her boyfriend Ram...."
"Who does he mean now? His wife?" I explained my question.
"No. They promised to get married in a few months to wait for the holiday to end. Mira worked as a nurse in the same hospital as Ram at that time." Aunt Sofie was silent, she looked at me. Then stop for a moment while looking at his phone.
"Continue aunt?" I'm getting curious. Because in my view who is a co-worker and subordinate he is very professional in working. Have high loyalty to the subordinates.
"Well, it's just like in the movie that's Nora. What film is the title.., emmm. Korean film by Nora.... What's the title uh aunt forgot...."
"Yes, why aunt? Think of the movie as ai loph yu." I'm kidding. Aunt Sofie looked at her hape seriously. Then he cheered cheerfully.
"This is The World of the Married Nora. The difference is Ram Mira is not married, they are still dating. It's been over ten years since Nora, imagine. Understand how people who have been dating for ten years. Just got to know last night a lot of people have hem hem hem...." Aunt Sofie spoke long while glancing at me meaningfully.
"Well, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, does it keep auntie?" I'm getting curious about Aunt Sofie's story. The prologue is too long.
"Continue.., came the Erlinda, an apprentice student who was apparently the son of the Governor at that time. Yeah, that's how suddenly they're close. Start together everywhere. Can you imagine how Mira feels, right? And the highlight is that Mira was decided by Ram, so don't marry Mira and then marry Erlinda who you know Nora?" Aunt Sofie brought my mouth back to my door.
"Erlinda was not a graduation until now. He's kebelet married.... Haha...." Aunt Sofie laughing. I shut up and was immediately shocked. Imaged by the face of Aunt Erlinda who has been home several times to see her father and mother to marry doctor Nina with bang Zamy. I remember bang Zamy again.
"Oh Allah bang Zamy...." I didn't consciously mumble.
"Why Naura? Zamy who? Why did you suddenly call Zamy?" Aunt Sofie was seriously looking at me.
"Ah it's okay aunt..," I quibble.
"We've reached aunt, Naura can not get into the parking lot so stop in other, this is still crowded like this even though it is still the application of social distancing from the government." I parked the car in front of the road to the cafeteria. Aunt Sofie came down and immediately waved to some of the mothers in the same clothes as her. Previously, Aunt Sofie wore a mask that was held all the way.
"Thank you for the ride, Nora, the aunt's coming home will be the same as them." Aunt Sofie soon joins her friends under the tent of the hospital yard. I saw about 30 people sitting there. I also approached the tent. On my screen, Mr. Ram has called. I didn't pick it up because I was already walking towards the sitting Ram sir.
"Assalamualaikum sir...." I go to sleep near them. I saw in the front row with seats about 1 meter there was already the mayor, the director of PT. Tin, tbk., Dr. Ricko from RS.Bhakti Timah workplace bang Zamy. They sat in the front row in the VIP seats with Mr. Ram. There are several police officers and TNI and BNPB Bangka Belitung are also present there. Some colleagues were also present.
"Waalaikumsalam bu doctor...." They stood up to welcome me. We didn't shake hands, just put our hands on our chest. And not waiting long, the event finally started. Greetings for a turnaround are heard. Then session by session passed. Display with infocus about the importance of the use of masks and donated PPE was quite time consuming. Until arriving at the last session, the handover session received PPE assistance from PT. Tin, tbk., symbolically. I stood in front as the receiving doctor. Then the whole camera will take a picture at that moment. Tomorrow my photo with the sweetest smile will decorate the mass media, both print and electronic. Because since working there I, doctor Naura has become an icon of all kinds of hospital publicity. Including my large poster at the entrance of the registration room with the caption "Your Honesty Helps Diagnose Us."
***
Finished following the series of handover activities PPE assistance in the fight against covid-19 I want to rest immediately. Aunt Sofie and her friends are still busy selfie under the tent, some invitations still continue the chat. While I was, walking gontai towards my car. But just about to get in the car, I saw people under the tent suddenly rowdy. I saw the police, TNi and some people who were talking carrying Ram's body. I undo the intention of going home immediately and returning to the crowd.
"Director's brother fainted!"
"Sir Ram is down!" As soon as I heard the voices of some people. I immediately followed, heading for the VIP room, and I saw Dr. Zein and Dr. Akmal walking towards the VIP room.
"Doctor Zein, doctor Akmal what happened?" I followed their quick steps. Both of them looked over and slowed down.
"The Director's brother suddenly fainted." Doctor Zein replied.
"He had previously complained of abdominal and back pain before fainting." Dr Akmal added.
"Aortic ainurism...." Doctor Zein spoke again.
Soon we arrived at the VIP room. There were 5 doctors and 2 nurses there. I didn't go in because I didn't feel held there. Just waiting in the outdoor chair. Shortly afterwards I saw Doctor Nina running from the end of the hallway and into the VIP room.
"Dad.., yeah.., dad..., you know...." Doctor Nina was crying.
"Doctor Zein, Doctor Ryan help my father." Doctor Nina speaks.
"Yes doc, just be patient. We will perform a scan to ascertain the location, size and severity of the aortic aneurysm. Prepare it immediately, we do a CT scan." Dr. Zein explained and ordered.
"Did it lead there?" Doctor Nina made sure. He pulled his slightly messy hair. I saw it from the outside glass. Anyway I want to know how he is. He's my boss at this hospital. Then half ran until also Aunt Erlinda and 3 other family people. The tense face looked tense.
"Aunty...." I greeted them.
"How are you, father? Already know?"
"That's asking inside the aunt.... Naura doesn't know either." I answered. Aunt Erlinda did not ask again. She opened the door where Mr. Ram was and immediately called her husband.
"Pa woke up pa..., quickly realized dong paaa.. hence already mama said many times quickly check.., quickly check but papa even relax continue...." Aunt Erlinda nagged the person who was fainting. I just held my breath shaking my head.
"Mom and others please wait outside, we want to do something yes ma'am...." Doctor Zein talks to Aunt Erlinda. Before long everyone walked out, the door was locked, while inside there was only Zein's entourage of doctors at work.
"How are you doctor?" Suddenly aunt Erlina has moved to sit near me. I nodded, and I experienced him.
"Alhamdulillah healthy aunt. Healthy aunt?" I asked back.
Thank goodness healthy. But the father has been complaining for a few days about stomach pain and sometimes back pain. I told you to check, yes, he replied." Aunt Erlinda's eyes kept staring at me. I only smile even though my smile is invisible because I wear a mask.
"Eh you haven't slept at home for a long time why? Is there a difference with Nina? You guys should get along. It'll be in-laws if Nina is married to Zamy." Aunt Erlinda asked.
"God gets along well, Naura is a little busy right now...." I'm trying to explain.
"Yes, yeah, great for you. The clinic is selling well. Said the Nina bustling continues even until night there are still people coming for treatment."
"Alhamdulillah aunty." I answered. Suddenly the door of the VIP room opened, a nurse came out and brought the file to Aunt Erlinda, approving the action.
"The condition of the Director sir has improved, he has regained consciousness, now our team wants to do a CT scan but the father also lacks blood. Please allow the family to go to the UTD to donate blood." Nurse Sundari explained.
"Foolah. How many bags?"
"Prepare only 2 bags first."
"okay." Aunt Erlinda standing up. He asked me to accompany him. Dr. Nina was also with 3 other family members. I accompanied them to UTD. Back on the road some nurses and colleagues reprimanded me. Arriving at UTD I explained to the guard officer who already knew the condition of the Director sir. His name is Director of cough colds alone will be the main topic of conversation around the hospital. Especially if you fall unconscious when there is an event. The news immediately spread. I sat down by the reception desk waiting for them to donate blood while playing the phone. Suddenly Aunt Erlinda screamed out of the room and threw the blood test kit.
"Work should be professional. Do not be careless with people's data. Dangerous know!" Aunt Erlinda was angry at the 2-man guard nurse who was trying to calm down.
"Sorry mom, but we've done 3 tests, the results are so...." I saw 2 talking nurses looking down in fear. I tried to calm Aunt Erlinda down by taking her to a long waiting chair. Doctor Nina is still in the room with 1 other family member.
"Go in there. Check it again." Aunt Erlinda is still angry.
"Good ma'am." The nurses entered the room again.
"Sorry aunt, what's the matter if Naura can find out?" I patted Aunt Erlinda's shoulder. He patted his head many times. Slowly he looked at me.
"You're also Naura's doctor, how did this happen? Aunt A's blood type, dad's also A, suddenly Nina's blood type B. This doesn't make any sense. I remember very well when he was in the incubator last night having been born, he was blood type A, at that time he had hyper bilurubinia. That's why aunt knows. Why suddenly it's B." I'm slack. It doesn't make sense. Should if the parents are both blood type A the possibility of the child will bleed A or O, it may not be B or other.
"Would there have been an error in his blood sample earlier. Or exchange it with another family." I spoke doubtfully. You see, I know the capacity of this officer at UTD. They are professionals at work. Not even though they were wrong to give the results of blood checks.
"I've asked repeatedly and the result is still B, and Nina herself said it was her blood type from when she first checked blood when Junior High was B. And aunt never talked about this." Aunt Erlinda was silent for a moment. His eyes looked far away as if remembering something.
"Or is there a possibility...." Aunt Erlinda suddenly stood up from her seat.
"What's possible...."
"What aunt?"
"Don't talk about the female devil really." Aunt Erlinda's face instantly turned a dead red. His chest up and down held back emotions. I just kept quiet. Confused by what Aunt Erlinda said.
"I have to go see that crazy woman. I'll ruin his life if the shit used to happen." He clenched his hands and ran towards the VIP room again. I was just confused and trying to catch up with Aunt Erlinda with Nina and the three family members who were with her earlier.
