Will Make Peace with the Past

Young Doctor. Those were the two words Lily was holding at the moment. Or another term most commonly used in the world of medicine, Koas.

If other faculty after graduating from college and get their degrees, they can immediately apply for jobs, not with medical faculty. To be able to get a real doctor's degree, Lily had to pass this stage first about 1.5–2 years, then take the Competency Exam then it can be sworn to become a doctor. If you want to become a specialist doctor, the time of education will increase again. Must follow Internshif program then specialist education. Shown ‘kan how much time, mind and energy spent? Not to mention the cost.

Plunge directly examined the patient let alone a critical patient able to make Lily's body tremble, in contrast to when he was in college first who mostly studied theory only. The different types of patient conditions he found. From the screams of women who were about to give birth, patients who were unconscious due to heart attacks, the patient's head that broke due to accidents, fractures, and various types of internal diseases, he said, and he also saw himself the patient who exhaled the last breath alias died who made himself sweat cold.

Not infrequently many consultants who scold him because they are nervous even panicked that makes his concentration is too large. “If you can't see blood, why did you choose medical school? Already, you better just go home there!” So one of the reprimands did not upset the heart of the senior doctor who is said to be fierce.

It was the first time he entered the world of chaos. Obviously people her age Lily emotions still tend to be unstable coupled with the trauma of papa who once drooped weakly in front of her with blood flowing profusely from the stomach. But as the proverb says ‘Alah Can Because Biasa’, slowly he can reduce the nervousness and panic that arises. The rebuke and anger of the consulents or other staff at the hospital he made motivation. Because they say the right thing. There is no way he went home as the consul said considering Adnan had sent school until graduation. Not a bit of money he had spent up to this point.

Lily sat down lethargic while looking at the shoulder that her bones felt like they wanted to dislodge. It's morning. Last night he and two of his friends were on night watch. The night was long and exhausting.

“Haaahh.” Lily exhaled her tired breath followed by her closed eyes.

“A very tiring night. I am really tired and sleepy,” complained his one friend.

“Iya,” reply the other.

Lily also confirmed it. It's far more tormenting to the body and soul than keeping a florist. It has been achieved sometimes reprimanded until scolded even though he feels he has done his best. Not long after he opened his eyes and sat up straight, “no, we can't complain like this. There's only one more step left to get this koas done. We have to be excited,” he said encouraging themselves. The child's stase is their last stase.

“Doctor, Sister, help me. Please treat my employer's wound.” While Lily was tidying up her medical combat equipment, she heard a panicked cry. It was common for him to hear such a request for help. Lily moved and walked out of the room with her friends. Because even though it was now their hour home, it was impossible for them to ignore the cries of people asking for help.

But when they came out, the patient who needed help was visited by doctors and nurses and took him to the ER room. Lily and her friends decided to go back into their room and continue preparing to go home.

Papi!

Lily was surprised not to play to see Mr. Surya in the hospital where she interned. He stopped his steps when he entered the nursery. After so many years did not see the old man who ‘ever so’ his father-in-law was only now he saw him again. Nothing has changed in his stature. Still looks handsome and certainly looks like Dion. It's just that her hair is starting to turn white. Lily wanted to step closer to him and express her longing.

The voice decides Lily's desire to get close to papi. Now his eyes looked at the child lying in the gurney whose age was around 4–5 years. The child was a patient who was in a serious condition yesterday before he came home.

“Nothing how? Your wounds are many like this.” Papi looked worried. “Doctor, shouldn't my grandson be operated on?” ask Papi to the doctor who is following-up patients who are currently Lily's consulents. Papi does not care much about Lily's presence in place or may not recognize her because Lily is wearing a mask that covers part of the face. This morning he was less fit because yesterday a day and a night was on duty.

“No need to worry, Sir. No serious internal injuries.”

A granddaughter?

It was definitely not Ariel and definitely not her sister either. Tiara could not conceive anymore because her uterus had been removed. Lily's heart immediately pounded violently. Is that child his son... Dion's?

Pain again gnawed at the heart considering that Dion had married another woman and now their son was in front of him himself.

Lily smiled bitterly. Actually laugh at himself. For years he left his heart empty without accepting love from any man. He condemned his folly because he could convince himself that someday Dion and himself would unite.

A few weeks after Lily saw a papi in the hospital with a small child who was said to be her grandson, Lily thought a lot and only realized that she should have a divorce letter.

Indeed, until now he has never held or even just seen his divorce papers. His other identity is also still in Dion's house, including his favorite motorcycle. Why did he never think about it? How can Adnan take care of all the needs of his lectures first and intern at the hospital without identity? Has Adnan taken it there yet?

Wanted to ask Adnan directly, but was undone. Even if Adnan had taken all his belongings, Lily felt she needed to meet with Dion. He felt he had to part with no hate or heartache because they were married well even though they were betrothed. Like papa's message in her dreams, Lily will try to start her life happily after coming to terms with Dion, her past.

So long stunned, Lily pulled and exhaled heavily and long, “I will be there.”
