Father To Baron

CHAPTER 72

"That's not all free, ma'am. There's something you have to pay me" Riko said as she lowered Arita's body on top of a safe that was available.

While Riko helps her lie down, the woman releases her arm around the man's neck. After his body felt comfortable, Arita again thanked the man.

"What do I have to pay for?" ask Arita.

Not intending to answer the woman's question, Riko again closed her lips as usual. Her hands help Arita to remove the shoelaces that are still worn by the woman. Once it opened, Riko placed it under the hospital gurney.

"The doctor will be here any minute" the two turned to the entrance, when they heard someone say that. Finding the arrival of a nurse, Riko straightened her body again.

"You better shut up, until the doctor comes to check on you. Understood?" riko said by staring at the netra sayu belonging to Arita. After patting the back of the woman's hand, Riko immediately went to get out.

"Please clean the wound," the man told the nun who had looked at him unblinkingly since then. When he realized that the woman in white uniform did not hear him, it made Riko cluck a little louder.

"Didn't you hear me?" insinuations.

"E-eh, okay. I'll clean the wound" stuttered the woman as she walked up to the gurney, complete with a stainless steel tray containing her work equipment.

Through the tail of her eyes, Riko again ascertained whether the nurse really carried out her orders or not. After Arita got the handling, Riko moved from his position to look at Baron who was still in the IGD room.

"Sus, why are you so groggy?" arita asked as she found the hand of the woman next to her constantly shaking while cleaning the wound on her face.

"Sunday's serem, Mom. I was afraid," said the woman by looking at the door that a moment ago passed by Riko to get out. Suddenly, Arita who heard it was turned upside down.

Shortly after, Arita chuckled lightly upon hearing the sister's confession. To cover up the awkwardness between her and the woman, Arita invites the woman to have a little chat.

"She's not my husband, Sus .." she said briefly.

"Oh, that wasn't her husband. But it's suitable to be her husband," said the woman so that made Arita shake her head inexhaustibly. He stared at the wound on his hand that was clean, so that made Arita smile briefly.

"Thank you, Sus," said Arita sincerely.

"Okay, I live first huh? Maybe ten minutes later the doctor came," after saying goodbye to Arita, he immediately came out of the room occupied by the new patient. Leaving Arita who still does not believe in everything.

While on the other hand, Riko put both her hands into her pants pocket. Right in front of him, the man stared at the glass on the door of the IGD room. A doctor was treating Baron painstakingly.

"I won't let you get away with it" Riko muttered as she recalled Banu's face.

Upon seeing the Baron who had an oxygen hose attached to his lips, Riko began to sigh. When he was about to sit on the bench, a call came in making his phone ring.

"Hello, Om?" greet the man when Andre calls him.

"How are things there? Do I need to send help?" asked the man across there in a worried-sounding tone.

"Everything's fine, Om. Calm down, there's no need to send anyone else to take care of this. Arita and Baron are already in the hospital," said his nephew, making Andre and Patricia who heard him feel relieved.

"Good job, boy. How are they doing?" patricia asked by taking over her husband's cell phone.

"Baron was unconscious, and is still in the ICU. While Arita, she got some scratches and her injured knee," he explained, making his aunt close her lips in shock.

"Give them the best treatment, okay? We have to take care of them as best we can for Gibran's sake, "his tantalizing message before closing his second call.

While Riko, the man seemed as if he had just realized something so as to make him silent. After putting her phone in her pants pocket, Riko sat her body quietly. Not to forget, the man pulled out a cigarette and also the lighter.

"Don't be stupid, Riko ..." The man's monologue.

"Gibrans?" monologue by waving the phone screen.

"Why, Gib?" ask the man by inhaling his cigarette deeply. From his phone he could hear, if his cousin was in the crowd somewhere.

"Where is Arita like Baron? They're fine, right?" the cousin asked as if demanding an answer from him. After puffing his cigarette smoke, Riko cleared her throat briefly before replying.

"Arita's fine, while Baron's still on the IGD." Gibran exhaled heavily, and it was heard clearly by his own cousin Riko—.

"Not to worry, Gib. Just finish your work, I'll handle it as best I can" said Riko trying to calm Gibran. He knew very well that his cousin was taking care of important work to be taken care of.

"Finished this project, I'm home as soon as possible" the man broke up steadily. "I'm taking the flight tomorrow morning" he added after staring at his own phone screen.

Hearing that, making Riko nod her head briefly. "No hurry, everything is safe."

"Where's arita? Let me talk to him" asked Gibran, hoping to hear the voice of his future wife. The woman's mobile phone has not been contacted since late afternoon.

"He's in his room, and I'm outside" said Riko by staring into the surrounding area, where the atmosphere was quite quiet for a large hospital like this.

"Can you go to her room?" pinta Gibran's.

"Hey, you're a big deal to me. Alright," despite feeling a little annoyed at her cousin, Riko still agreed to the request from the man. Without waiting for a long time, he again set foot into Arita's room.

"In exchange, I will give you whatever you ask" Gibran said, trying to negotiate.

"Well, of course. You have to find me a wife-to-be" said Riko bluntly. Suddenly, the two chuckled briefly at each other laughing at each other. Communication between the two is very rare before this.

Czech ...

As soon as Riko opened the door, Arita seemed to grimace in pain when the doctor's hand touched her leg. Reflexively, Riko immediately approached towards the gurney with a slight worry.

"You okay?" asked Riko in a tone filled with worry. While Gibran who heard it, also worried about the state of Arita.

The woman looked at Riko with a hard-to-understand look. Just because he was grimacing in pain, the man immediately showed an attitude that he had never expected before. Men who are synonymous with cold nature, now look more expressive.

"No, the wound was slightly nudged" Arita explained.

"Is his condition okay, Doc?" tanya Riko turned to the woman with the sneli hanging on her neck. Still with the cell phone that connected his call with Gibran, the man asked Arita's situation.

"The condition is good, another case with the knee of patients who have an infection because there are broken glass and some small stones attached. But we've cleaned it," he explained, making Riko look briefly at Arita's face.

"We recommend consuming a lot of mineral water" he added, making Arita nod her head briefly.

Actually the woman felt fine. However, it was Riko who insisted on taking her to this hospital. He can clean his own wounds at home.

"I live first, huh? Excuse me," said the doctor.

After the departure of the woman, Arita now looked in wonder at Riko who was standing next to her safe. As if understanding the woman's gaze, Riko gave her phone to Arita.

"Gibran wants to talk to you" he said, making Arita look in disbelief at him. Without wanting to intrude on the privacy of the two, Riko chose to leave the room immediately.

In her silence, Arita looked at Riko's back which was getting further away. Then, the woman's attention was fixed on the voice of a man calling her name.

"Aritas? I'm sorry,"
