ELARA: FATED TO LOVE

16. Look in

"Who called?" Anton asked the enthusiastic-looking Elara when he received the mobile call.

Instead of answering her question, Elara asked another question that had nothing to do with what her father wanted her to know.

"Dad, Ela to Hamburg, huh?"

Anton was immediately surprised by his daughter's words.

"Aren't you wrong about going there? Wh-wh-what for? Didn't the rector of the campus give you permission to rest?" anton's question didn't understand Elara's request.

"But Ela has to be there, Dad."

"You forgot that you were like this because of a plane crash on your way to Hamburg?"

Elara was silent, she nodded slowly but seemed to think how she could go to the city and see how Shane was there.

"Ela's not on a plane there. Use ground transfortation. Yeah, dad, huh?" persuade Elara.

Anton massaged the base of his nose. "Now I ask, why are you going there? What business and interests? I'm sure this has nothing to do with your work, right?" tanyanya.

Anton of course wonder what makes Elara insisted and seemed eager to want to go to Hamburg. In fact, Anton still remembers when Elara complained about moving her job from Berlin to the city.

"Ela-Ela wants to see someone" admits Elara at last. He could not lie to his father.

"Who? And who called you until you suddenly insisted on going to Hamburg? We have never discussed this before."

"The phone call was Mr. Darius, Dad. He told me about the man who went missing in the woods and was found. The man is being treated in Hamburg."

Anton was beginning to guess his situation. "You mean, you want to go there to see the state of the missing man that has been found, right?" guess it.

Elara nodded her head.

"For what? Don't you know each other?"

Elara is silent, she is still confused to tell her father about his relationship with Shane or not. Elara knows her short relationship with Shane is too far away, she is afraid that her father actually considers her feelings for Shane is just blind love considering she only knew Shane when she was both in the Forest.

"Ela knows Shane, Dad." Finally Elara dared to speak it, although she still did not dare to reveal her relationship with Shane to the father.

"Mirhane?"

"Yes, the missing man's name is Shane. He saved Elara time drifting in the river."

All right, now Anton understands the situation. So the missing man was with Elara in the woods. He also saved Elara and helped Elara there. Anton concludes that Elara feels indebted to the man.

"So, why did you get the SAR team first while he was ..." Anton paused for a moment. "What was his name?" tanyanya.

"Shane."

"Yes, Shane. How can you be found on a different day if you're actually together in that forest?"

"Shane disappears while searching for a signal. You remember, if you had time to receive a call that called Ela's name but her voice was interrupted?"

Of course Anton remembers that, because his wife-Nadine-said if there was a man who called Elara alive but the phone was not clear with a faltering voice.

"Yes, is that a phone call from him?" ask Anton back.

"Yes, Dad. Shane called Mother."

Anton rubbed his own face. In this case, he also had to meet the man to thank him for helping and helping Elara a lot while in the Forest.

"Then why did you get separated there?"

"Okay, I understand everything. Well then, let Daddy come to Hamburg to thank Shane directly. All of you will see how things are. Thank goodness he was found too. Maybe now he's also starting to recover like you."

"meaning? Ela can't come?" Elara frowned inside.

"It is not possible, but your condition is not possible. So, let me represent you there."

"But, Dad ..." Of course this is beyond Elara's prediction. He thought by telling the father, his father wanted to give him permission to go to see Shane, in fact it was not so. His father remained at the initial decision and did not give him permission to travel.

...****...

The sound of the ECG machine installed in the room sounded loud.

The device is connected to translate heart impulses into a graphic shape that is displayed on a monitoring screen - so that the heart rate of the patient lying there can be detected by the person who saw it.

"Shane, wake up, son! You've been in this room for almost a month" lamented a middle-aged woman in the ICU room.

How his heart was not broken, his son was found in a terrible state in the Forest. Shane is indeed active in following such things, Shane likes to adventure, he is a nature lover regardless of the position that should be held.

"I'm sorry, Shane. You shouldn't have gone away angry and after a fight with Mom."

Always the same words of regret that the middle-aged woman kept repeating. Indeed, the day before Shane decided to climb, they were involved in checks and quarrels are quite great.

After feeling satisfied to get her heart out in front of the son's body lying unconscious, the middle-aged woman opted out of the ICU room where Shane had been treated for almost a month.

"How's Shane doing, Mom?" ask a young woman waiting in front of the ICU.

Emma shook her head in lethargy. "He's not conscious yet, Stevi, either" he said.

The young lady called Stevi sighed deeply. How can Shane not be aware when this is long enough. All the healing process has been done, Shane has also passed the stage of surgery when found in a state of concern.

"Do I have to lose Shane too, mother?" Stevi cried as she hugged Emma from the side.

"Don't say that, wish Shane all the best."

"This all happened because of me, for sure" Stevi said regretfully as she stroked her stomach, which seemed to begin to bulge.

"No, it's not your fault, Shane here because of his carelessness. He shouldn't have climbed up after a fight with mom back then."

As they were pitting against each other, suddenly a middle-aged man approached the two.

"Excuse me, can I meet Shane?" ask the man in formal English.

Emma got up from her seat. "Yes, I'm his mother. If you know who you are?" he answered while asking in English.

"Ah, meet me, I'm Anton. I wanted to see Shane because I heard he was treated here a month ago. I think Shane's situation has improved, but it turns out Shane is still in the ICU?" anton asked who was actually quite surprised when he found out this fact.

"I'm Emma. Shane's mom. Shane is not out of the ICU. Thank you for visiting her."

Anton nodded. "Can I see it in the ICU?" his permission.

"Please, it just so happens that the clock isn't over yet. But, where do you know my son?"

"I don't know Shane directly but I represent my son to see him, it just so happens that he's stuck in the woods just like Shane, so I'm sorry about your son, Madam."

Emma took a long breath. It turns out that his son was not trapped in the forest alone. I don't know, he also has not heard any facts about the truth that happened, because Shane has not been conscious since the beginning was found and he can not ask what happened to him.

"Alright, go ahead if you want to see Shane."
