Doctor Steven's Charm

65 - God's secret

True to Rimba's guess, he was late in the elective course in his first hour. The girl was forced to sneak in so as not to be seen the lecturer who was explaining something in front there.

'it turns out many also take this course,' the inner Jungle when circulating his gaze to find an empty seat.

"Ssttt, here!!" suddenly Ellena immediately pulled Rimba's hand to sit beside him.

"Elle?" Rimba was quite surprised, not expecting Ellena to pull his hand just like that, and almost made Rimba fall. "Aach!"

Several pairs of eyes immediately turned towards Rimba, including the lecturer who immediately stopped his theory in front of the class.

"Are you late for my hour?" asked the lecturer, looking at Rimba while raising his round glasses to the base of the nose.

"Emm, sorry sir" said Rimba slightly bowed in homage.

"This time you I'm sorry. But I hope the next meeting is not too late. I can not tolerate anymore" said the lecturer who was about 50 years old and above.

Rimba only replied with a nod. He was really embarrassed to be the center of attention in that room.

"usually never late, abis semalem overtime, heh!" ledek Ellena while smiling a slanted smile.

Rimba reflexes elbowed his friend's arm. "Hish, Sotoy Lo Elle! My grandfather-in-law miss Semalem Hospital, so it's late."

"Seriously?" ellena's eyeballs were wide-eyed. "why?"

"heart attack, didn't Galang say the same to Lo?"

Ellena shook her head. "the question is already in a new boarding place," he said.

"Yes? jd Lo don't live in your mother's house anymore?" sontak Rimba.

"Shhhhh!!!"

"Sttt!!"

some of the students who were sitting close with them also immediately glanced at him by reprimanding him.

"Oops! sorry," replied Rimba smiling faintly feeling bad to the other students.

"Yeah, Lo's twin sodara now lives at the mother's house. There's no way I'm still running around there. I want to sleep where you try, both are the same? impossible because she's not Lo" Ellena said.

"What's the hell?" ledek Rimba chuckled. "but Lo can be in his room Galang, Elle" he said again.

"What???!" Ellena reflexively hardened the volume of her voice back as she glared.

Several pairs of eyes around him immediately stared intently at the two of them.

'Oops!!' ellena reflex closes her pink lips with one of her palms.

"That discussion outside the context of this course please come out!" reprimand the teacher in front of the class. It turned out that the noise of Ellena and Rimba was heard to his ears.

"Oh, yes sir sorry" said Ellena nodding her head. So does Rimba.

The sky was starting to reach the horizon. Rimba rushed out of her last class. Today, the schedule is very busy and there are almost no breaks.

'Gue kudu hurried to the hospital, ' his mind hastily followed his footsteps that stepped wide. I don't know why she suddenly felt bad.

Rimba immediately booked a taxi online through an app on his phone. While waiting for the taxi to come, Rimba stood on the side of the road right in front of the entrance of the campus.

Tidd!!!

a European car unit made of silver came out of the campus area and honked in the direction of the Jungle. The car then stopped and made Steven's doctor's wife frown in wonder.

Soon the person in the car lowered the door glass while grinning. "does it take a ride?" he gave it to the jungle.

"Why??" marvin asked slightly raising his voice from inside his car.

Rimba then slightly bent his body and stared clearly at Marvin who was behind the wheel. "Why?" he said back to asking.

"Yes, why?" marvin pressed his sentence.

"because Lo had Angela and I was married. I don't want to find new problems with Lo," replied Rimba.

"Okay Rimba, I just nawarin Lo ride doang really, no more. besides the same cave Angela has long broken" said Marvin again pressing his last word.

"Okay thanks for the offer of a ride Lo, but sorry I can not," refused the jungle once again.

Fortunately the online taxi he ordered came, the jungle immediately approached the white car and entered it through the back door of the passenger.

While Marvin could only throw his breath rough. Realizing that he could not get back to the jungle easily.

Arriving at the hospital, Rimba was surprised by some people who were standing anxiously in front of the door of Hermawan's grandfather's nursery. There was Mitha, Marcho, Vania, Rimiko and Galang. But where's Steven??

"What's going on?" tanya Rimba began to over think when she saw Mitha who was crying on her husband's shoulder.

Mitha and Marcho did not realize, they just looked at Rimba with a pushy gaze.

"Grandfather collapse, this is being handled by the doctors inside" Galang said later.

Rimba's eyes wide, he was surprised not to play. Didn't Steven say grandpa was getting better this morning?

"Where have you been at this new clock?" whispered Vania immediately pulled Rimba's arm towards her.

"i just finished college Bun, after all why is no one ngabarin anyway??" rimba replied a little protest.

"Yes but you should have come home early dong, already know your in-laws are sick," said Rimiko.

"Where I know will be rich gini, you know that I will not enter the last matkul earlier," said Rimba regretted himself. 'Steve also did not bother, at least send a cake message, ' his mind continues to feel guilty because in the condition now he looks as if he does not care about the condition of his grandfather-in-law.

The condition returned to silence, only the sound of Mitha's sobs that sounded faint.Vania was muttering to recite a prayer for grandfather Hermawan.

Shortly after, a doctor came out of the room. Mitha and her husband quickly approached followed by Rimba and the others.

"Isn't anything, Doc?" mitha asked quickly with her puffy eyes.

"We have tried our best" said the doctor, opening his glasses.

"meaning?" marco asked, narrowing his eyes.

"We're so sorry, Grandpa Hermawan has been"

"What do you mean doc?" not finished the doctor spoke, Mitha immediately pushed her body. The brother-in-law of the Jungle instead barged into the room to ensure the condition of the grandfather.

Inside there, Steven was sobbing while hugging the body of the grandfather who had been stretched rigidly covered with green cloth. All medical devices previously installed in the body of the Hermawan have now been released.

Rimba also stood in shock to find her husband who now looks devastated by the departure of people who have been respected and very dear to him.
