Doctor Naura

Chapter 8 Stay on Task

Arriving at the garage I saw bang Zamy had opened the car door for me. I looked up, sitting in the front, next to the driver's seat. Next to my beloved brother.

"Okay..., ready?" His old habits have always been. He'll ask me if I'm ready to go or not. Bang Zamy smiled at me as if nothing had happened. It was as if tonight was still like the nights before, the night before I knew my status in the family. The night before I didn't know that I wasn't my father and mother's biological son, the night before I found out that my three brothers weren't my blood brothers. I tried to smile.

"Ready miss?" Bang Zamy repeated. But I was lazy to answer, I just put my lips to him as a sign of being ready to go. He just gave me the right thumb.

The car started coming out of my house, we were walking down a deserted highway. The rainy weather plus the coronavirus disease season 19 makes the people of the city of Pangkalpinang reluctant to move from the contest. Maybe some of them are busy chatting with family. Or maybe half of them are dizzy thinking about the income is getting minimal at this time. Corona virus has ravaged the economy of the world community including the Indonesian economy and certainly Bangka Belitung as a tin-producing country is affected.

"Bee...," Suddenly bang Zamy called out his beloved name to me while stopping at the red light of DKT. I stopped playing the phone. I stared at him for a moment and turned my eyes back to the wet streets.

"Why is it so quiet?" Bang Zamy asked me. I just smiled stiffly while shrugging my shoulders.

"Nobody is quiet Bang Zamy. Naura is still the same, her brother bang the cheerful Zamy." I'm trying to dodge. Though true, I felt less excited and less concentrated. If only 2 of my assistant nurses had not received patient registration at the clinic, maybe I just wanted to rest in the room. Sleeping while wearing a headset playing sad songs. Yes, after knowing my status that has been a secret for 28 years. It was as if an important part of my life had been lost. There is a deep disappointment that is not clear to whom. There is a great anger that I have to keep myself. There was a deep regret that seemed unable to accept it. I, the son of the levy, am always demanding much to my parents and brothers. I remember when I was in SD, seeing that bang Rahman got a new bike, I immediately whined for a new bike change, and my mother's father just complied with nothing but anger. How shameful of this self, when only a child picked up. When SMA again booms the latest output matic motor, I also immediately asked to buy a matic motor to my parents. Then without asking much questions they bought me the bike of my dreams. Come to think of it, I really can't put myself in my position. How can a child collect, apply for a wish to study at the Faculty of Medicine Unsri Palembang at a cost of hundreds of millions. But my heart says I'm not wrong. Because I never thought that I wasn't actually their real child.

"Bee.., don't daydream the doctor's deck. It's not good to know." Suddenly bang Zamy returned to disturb my daydream. I'm just smiling.

"Not really bang. Naura is not dreaming." I'm trying to give up.

"How not to daydream, brother look at your eyes and see the hape, but your hape does not move at all...." Bang Zamy continued. The red light has turned green. We went back slowly.

"Price bang?" I even scrunched my forehead.

"Here Bee, brother does not want to see you change seeeee. Whoever you were when you were a baby, your brother knows you're a very dear brother. So whatever the truth is right now don't think too much, don't be burdened." Bang Zamy spoke again, he wanted to stroke my head as usual. But I moved my body, dodging. Sure enough bang Zamy just smiled at my behavior.

"Naura tried not to think about it bang, but instead kept thinking. Naura is not blood with brother. Naura is not a parent's child. And you know, right? How has Naura been acting all this time? How Naura behaved even more than a real child...." I tried my hardest to keep the tears from falling back. But in vain already. The crystal returned slowly.

"Red light deck. Wash your face a little. Pity that your patients will wonder if they see their favorite doctor with a puffy face." Bang Zamy stopped again at the red light of Mentok street. Then without answering, I took a bottle of mineral water, spilled it onto my handkerchief and wiped it onto the face around the eyes. Then in the rearview mirror I saw my face that was brighter.

"It's so much prettier."

"What a brother, right from once was already beautiful...."

"But without crying it's gonna be even more beautiful...."

"Tauk ah's. My brother will park through the back road only. Near the room brother. I'm going in through the pharmacy." I switched the conversation.

"Yes!" Bang Zamy turned the car towards the garage on the side. I saw the car parked there too. My car can't get in, park it on the side of the road. Before entering the practice room I saw the waiting room was full. Half the patients bang Zamy and half my patients. Some children even sound crying, may be tired of waiting.

I ask nurses to re-arrange the distance of patients according to social distancing rules in an effort to break the chain of transmission of coronavirus disease 19/covid-19. I told half of them to wait beside the room, the other half in the front yard near the fence. Although drizzle but already use a mild steel roof, so they will not wet. The nurse brought some plastic chairs. Once again I make sure they are not clustered and to keep the distance with fellow patients between 1-2 meters. Indeed, fellow families of patients are still collected about 2 or 3 people. Because what they bring small children is natural if someone accompanies. I looked around, always nodding and smiling kindly to those who had just seen me and calling me as soon as I appeared.

"Docteeerrr...."

"Docteeerrr...."

"Docteeerrr...."

After the nurse had given my patients medical records, I began with my doctor's duties and vows. In addition to providing disease prevention measures in healthy children, also provide treatment to sick children, both acute and chronic diseases. I'm sure they've been waiting for me for a long time. Then I can't ignore it anymore. Time to work, concentrate and forget the burden of the mind that only makes me lethargic. I'm doctor Naura, the great doctor who's already famous in this city. I have to work professionally. I opened the hoodie I was wearing. Hang it on the back hanger of the chair I'm sitting on. The first patient came in. I greeted her with the sweetest smile.
