Droplets of Night Creatures

83. Kangen...

Aruna's daydreams were caved in as her phone rang. Aruna just glanced at her phone which was in a position to charge the battery reluctantly.

Aruna wanted to ignore the call. But when he saw the name Kautsar on his phone screen, Aruna was moved to receive the video call.

" Assalamualaikum..," said Aruna doubtfully.

" Alaikumsalam Aruna. Alhamdulillah.," said Kautsar with a tone of voice of relief to make Aruna smile.

For a moment the two fell silent without knowing what to say. Kautsar deliberately sighed many times to gather strength. There were a lot of emotions in his head back then that he wanted to vent. But Kautsar tried to hold him back because he believed Aruna was also 'tiredness'.

" Where are you Run...?" kautsar asked, but he already knew from Galang if Aruna was in the Hospital.

" In the Hospital..," said Aruna quickly.

" Have not prayed yet...?" ask Kautsar.

" Uh, it just finished praying..," said Aruna to make Kautsar smile.

" Have you eaten...?" ask Kautsar who did know Aruna had not eaten anything since morning.

" A little while longer," said Aruna as she felt her chest to neutralize her fast-paced heartbeat.

Aruna felt the Kautsar's attention was the cure of all his unrest today. He was happy with the small attention of the Kautsar.

" Aruna..," call Kautsar.

" Yes..," said Aruna.

" I miss you." said Kautsar lirih but still heard by Aruna and it made both eyes of Aruna patterned.

" Tumben..," said Aruna while glaring.

" Ck, you broke the moment just Run. I'll try romantic with you again," said Kautsar while clucking and Aruna laughed.

" I'm sorry, your brother is so funny..," said Aruna in between her laughter.

The Kautsar laughed as he watched Aruna laugh. He hopes that after laughing Aruna's burden is slightly reduced and makes it more relaxed.

" Do you feel better...?" ask Kautsar when Aruna's laughter subsides.

" Yes, thank you Tsar." said Aruna sincerely.

" Everything is the same" said Kautsar.

" You don't want to know what happened today here Tsar ?. Not that you were angry just the same Great...?" ask Aruna.

" That's so great. But for me the most important thing right now is to make sure you're okay and not hurt Aruna. About what happened today, it can be described later on until Jakarta..," said Kautsar sage to make Aruna touched.

" But unfortunately I hurt the Tsar" said Aruna, staring at her bandaged right hand.

" Oh yeah, which part ?. Severe ga, it's been lobbied yet...?" ask Kautsar to panic.

" It's just a small wound anyway, don't let me live..," said Aruna while rolling her eyeballs.

" I don't like your nyepelein luka ya Aruna. If you don't pay attention to your wounds, I'll follow you right now...!" the Kautsar said half-threatening.

" Eh, no need. His wounds were broken. Nih see kan..," said Aruna panicked while showing her palms on the bandage.

" That's what's Run's wound...?" kautsar asked while frowning.

" Kena glass frame..," said Aruna quickly.

" Why can't...?" ask Kautsar again.

" The story of the Tsar. Not that you said you want to wait for me to get to Jakarta just so you can tell the full story...?" aruna asked while pursing her lips.

" I ate first, Tsar. Do not forget to eat either. Ntar habitually, busy lecturing me eh know yourself forget to eat..," said Aruna to make Kautsar laugh loudly.

" Okaya..," said Kautsar and again it made Aruna round her eyes.

A moment later, the conversation between Kautsar and Aruna ended. Aruna hurried up from her seat and walked out of the musholla to meet Fadil, Galang and Agung.

Then the four stepped towards the Hospital cafeteria for lunch.

Kenzo began to wake up on the second day of his hospital stay. Ria's laughter broke when she saw Kenzo open her eyes.

" Alhamdulillah, finally..," said Ria while hugging Kenzo.

" Don't do it Ri, Kenzo just woke up. He also needs oxygen to breathe. If Lo hugs rich that how he can breathe..," said Aruna.

" Oh yeah, I forgot. Sorry dear..," said Ria as she stroked Kenzo's cheek gently.

Kenzo nodded and closed his eyes again. Seeing that made Ria confused.

" Don't panic Ri, Fadil again called the doctor to check on Kenzo's condition.", said Galang calmed Ria.

" Yes Lang, thank you..," said Ria quickly.

A doctor and a nurse approached Kenzo. Aruna and her friends were asked to wait outside when the doctor examined Kenzo.

After making sure Kenzo's condition improved, the doctor came out of the room to see Aruna and her friends. The doctor suggested that Kenzo be admitted for a few days at the Hospital.

Hearing the doctor's words made Aruna and her four friends seem to stare at each other confused. Their purpose to Lampung is to do the task all on vacation. But what happened was beyond a doubt. Moreover, they still have to go back to the police station to give information.

" We share the task, guys," said Fadil suddenly.

" For what task is Dil...?" asked Aruna not understanding.

" We are the six. So it is divided into three places. Two people at the Hospital, two to the Police station and two more to the plantation. Gathering point at this Hospital because we might not leave Kenzo here alone right. How's...?" fadil asked as he looked at his five friends one by one.

" I agree. More practical as well..," said Agung quickly.

" yes. But the information needs that we need from the plantation are different Dil..," said Ria.

" We're rolling Ri. For example, the first day to the plantation I same Aruna. The one to the Galang Police station is the same Agung and the one that Kenzo ya Lo lah nemenin. Well, tomorrow we can replace it..," proposed Fadil.

" The power is the best. I agree with the proposal of Fadil..," said Galang.

" I also...!" tell four others.

" When that's the deal. Who wants to go to the plantation first today...?" ask Fadil.

" I'll just go. Kan I know the same plantation owner..," said Galang.

" I'm going with Galang.., "" said Aruna.

" okay. That means the one to the Police Station I same Fadil yes..," said Agung.

" Yes..," said Aruna and her four friends together.

Afterwards Aruna, Galang, Fadil and Agung went out to the agreed place earlier. Galang and Aruna ride a taxi to arrive at the plantation, while Fadil and Agung take public transportation.

Meanwhile, Ria takes care of Kenzo's needs during his hospital stay. Several times he was seen in and out of the room while carrying some objects.

Kenzo seemed happy to see Ria with him. Moreover, the girl never complained even though Kenzo knew that Ria was also very tired and sleepless because she accompanied him in the Hospital.
