HAPPY READINGš¤'S
Merlin leaned his back against the wall in this hospital hallway. He exhaled slowly to hear the words of the nurse he had met earlier in front of the door of Dimas' room.
The Flasback
Merlin walked with an expanding smile down the hospital hallway. He had not visited Mr. Dimas for a few days and today was the day he would visit a neighbor and a person he considered his own father.
Arriving in front of a room, Merlin saw a sister who had just come out of the room he had agreed.
"Sus." a friendly sweep stared at Sister Tagged Prita.
The sister replied with a warm smile. "Well, can I help you?"
"Em I want to look at the patient inside on behalf of Mr. Dimas. He can be picked up, right, Sus? I happen to be his neighbor." said Merlin in a subtle tone.
"Sorry Mother, the patient on behalf of Mr. Dimas has been transferred to the ICU room. His condition is critical so it needs intensive treatment from a doctor. For the moment the patient is not allowed to be looked at."
The deg!
Merlin fell silent. Though he always prayed and hoped Mr. Dimas could be healed. At that time Elena had talked about the condition of her Father who was almost healed but why now even back to critical?
Flasback Off
"Oh my God, may Mr. Dimas' condition improve quickly." murmured Merlin slowly staring at the door in front of him which written above the ICU room.
Merlin called Elena about this. I don't know where the girl is, Merlin doesn't know. He hadn't seen Elena in his house in a long time. Where's the girl? Merlin had thought that Elena might stay with the Sister-Princess but Merlin doubted that if the Princess allowed Elena to stay there, maybe she would ask Elena this later.

"Where are you going Na?" Meldi approached and stroked Elena's head slowly.
Elena's eyes were red. He was no longer strong enough to withstand the sadness and worry but he still tried not to cry. "Mr, I'm back to critical. I have to hurry up there." he said.
As if understanding Meldi nodded. "Let the driver who ran you? mamah will be the same as others followed there." he replied. He will probably visit the iron and check how it is. "But the condition of your body also does not hurt, Na?"
Elena shook her head slowly. "I've got a gapapa kok ma-mah." he quickly took his backpack that he put hp then looked at Meldi and the others.
"I'm saying goodbye first" Elena used to shake Meldi and Abraham's hand. His gaze was turned on Chaca, he slightly lowered his head and looked back at the person who was still here. "Excuse me."
Afterwards Elena stepped out of Bryan's room. He had to hurry to the hospital to meet his father. Honestly, he was afraid. He was afraid that if Dimas' condition returned like this, he could not imagine bad things happening to his only parents.
Meldi stared at the departure of his daughter-in-law. He is actually also in contact with the health conditions that afflict the iron.
"Cha?" call Meldi looking at his third child who was still standing not far from the door. "You go with your brother-in-law. Cassian she is." she continued.
Chaca rolled her eyes lazily with her hands folded on her chest. "Got no. Males to the hospital. Chaca doesn't like the smell."
Abraham looked at his son. He already knows the character of Chaca who does not like to go to the hospital because he does not like to smell the atmosphere. Though according to him the atmosphere is ordinary, but the child still keukeuh do not want to be invited to go to the hospital. He also knew Chaca was very afraid of things that smell of blood and injections, eating it if sick his son did not want to be checked into the hospital, afraid of being injected, he said.
Meldi just shook his head. Her son is hard to ask for help.

Along the way Elena unceasingly prayed for the healing of the Father. He prayed that Dimas would recover quickly and return as he had.
Elena beg the strong Father. Elena's convinced you can't leave Elena here alone. Enough Mothers left Elena first, but Elena please don't leave Elena for now. Elena loves you, Father.
Everyone will surely meet his end, Elena is sure of it but she prayed that God still predestine his Father to stay alive with him. He has not been able to make Dimas happy, he has not been able to repay his Father's services since the first. Although the services of parents can not be replaced by anything, at least Elena wants to be happy and obey all the wishes of her Father with her own efforts.
The car he was driving soon stopped in a hospital parking lot. With a body trying to toughen up, Elena smiled at the driver in front of her.
"Thank you, sir." said Elena.
The plontos-headed driver nodded. "Together Miss."
After saying goodbye, Elena immediately opened her car door and got off. He quickly stepped towards the entrance and entered it. He will be in the ICU. She learned from Merlin, the woman said that Dimas was taken to the room for intensive care.
Not far from his sight, Elena caught a glimpse of a woman looking down on the waiting chair, immediately approaching the woman and greeting her.
"Mr?" call Elena when she gets next to the woman.
"Eh Na, thank goodness you came."
"Pak Dimas is still inside Na, his condition is critical. Why is it so critical." Merlin showed his sad face. He was also saddened to hear that Dimas' health condition was getting worse.
Elena sat in the waiting chair. His body felt weak to hear the speech that Merlin made. Doctor Bryan said, Her father will soon be cured but why is he now back to critical?
"Father." softly shrieked Elena with eyes that began to redden back.
Merlin who saw him immediately sat down next to the girl. He gently stroked Elena's shoulder giving her strength to face all of this. "You are patient Na, Ma'am is also sad but we just pray for the best for Mr. Dimas."
Elena looked at Merlin softly. Her tears began to fall one after another. "Elena was just afraid of Father-"
Merlin immediately hugged Elena tightly. He began to hear the sound of crying in the girl he was hugging. "Udah-ud. We pray that your Father will be healed and healthy again. I'm sure Mr. Dimas will be strong to do all this." Merlin tried to calm Elena down. He knew what it was like for his neighbor.
Before long Elena took off her embrace. Behind his tears that were still falling profusely, he smiled looking at Merlin. "Thank you, Ma'am. You're always there when Elena is like this." Elena said. If only the attitude of a Princess like Merlin, surely he would be very happy to have Big Brother who is able to make him comfortable and feel strong.
Merlin reviewed her smile and stroked Elena's head slowly. "Sama-sama Na, Mr. Dimas has Mbak considered as Father Mbak himself as well as you. Ma'am already thinks of you as your sister too."
Elena smiled sweetly. Although her eyes were puffy, Elena still smiled at the sentence if she had been considered a Sister by Merlin, when his own brother does not like him but there are still people who love him even though he is not from his own family.
A figure of a man appeared from a distance making Elena rise from her seat. He looked at the man with a questionable look.
Until the moment the man stood not far from her, Elena quickly approached him and stood right in front of him.
"My father really why Doc? why are you critical again?" Elena stared at the tall man in front of her. He needs to ask for a clear explanation from her.
The doctor tagged Wildan glanced at the glance of the person lying weakly behind the small window above the door and his gaze looked back at Elena before him.
"After a deeper examination of the tumor in his brain turned out to have not disappeared." The doctor seemed to be breathing slowly. "The tumor has entered a malignant phase, which can also be called brain cancer."
Elena closed her mouth not believing her tears had returned to drip. she did not believe as bad as the disease of the Father.
"Do you need another operation?" ask Elena again.
Doctor Wildan shook his head slowly. "The operation yesterday was not completely dry. We don't want to take any chances if we have to restart the operation."
"But you can still recover, can't Doc?"
"Just pray. We can't guarantee that, but we'll do our best for the patient."

It had been half an hour more Elena was sitting in the waiting chair with her face covered with both hands. His father could not be looked at as well, even though he was eager to visit his father.
While Merlin was still loyal beside Elena. Sometimes he stroked the girl's back slowly to give her strength. He glanced at the clock that was circular on his wrist, the clock seems to have shown at 1 pm.
"Na sorry, Mommy came out for a while gapapa? Ma'am wants to buy food for us, you must be a manufacturer?" ask Merlin.
Elenan turned her gaze to look at Merlin. Yes, even though he had been warned not to eat late but now he had not eaten when the lunch hour had passed, his mind had been only about the condition of Dimas, but now he had not eaten, he does not care about his own condition because he is more concerned with the condition of the Father.
Elena nodded slowly. "Thank you, Mother."
Merlin glanced at his smile. "Either. If so Maak go first, you're here, take good care of your father."
Elena nodded again.
Merlin then got up from his seat. Elena stared at the neighbor's departure in silence, as she was nowhere to be seen in her sight again Elena looked down and covered all her face with both hands. In his heart he always prayed for the healing of Dimas.
"Ekhem."
Dekheman's voice made Elena raise her head to look at the origin of the sound. He looked at the bag of crackles that someone had given him in front of him.
"So your stomach acid doesn't go up anymore. You eat this first" Bryan gave me a white crackle bag containing porridge. "I know you haven't had lunch today" he continued.
Elena took the food. "Doctors know if my stomach acid goes up?" tanyanya.
Bryan sat down next to Elena. He looked at the girl with a flat look. "That's not important, what should be important is your own health condition. Even if you're worried, you still have to take care of your health."
Elena immediately reviewed her smile. He stared inside the bag. "Thank you Doc."
"Don't worry too much about your Father, your job is to pray that your Father is healthy again. Let me figure out how to cure Mr. Dimas later." Bryan sighed slowly. "I'm going to send the best doctors from some hospitals to your father, you take it easy. I'll make the most of it so that your father can be healthy again. Think about your body condition first, do not let you get sick. I don't want to see you sick like this morning."
