Holding My Heart Belongs to Me
05. Leave your Girlfriend
Reizvan has slid through the streets of the capital of East Java, the second largest city in Indonesia, Surabaya. Incidentally the path chosen to go to the Bhakti Dharma Husada Regional General Hospital Surabaya is quite quiet in the afternoon. So that Reizvan was free to take the speed whatever he wanted.
The vehicle veered swiftly through the gate of a magnificent and beautifully landscaped building in RSUD Bhakti Dharma Husada Surabaya. Towards the spacious parking background behind the ground floor hospital building.
Reizvan tried to control the step, aware that Ardhita would be difficult to compensate for the long step. They entered the elevator which happened to be gaping wide in the corner of the room.
Mr. Irawan was treated in a VIP room for nerve and head disorders patients. On the second floor of the front ward.
Not just this one time, but already several times Reizvan's father was brought in and out of this large RSUD. Various symptoms of nerve disorders often appear and interfere. Like the fertigo pain that really messes with it.
The ceklerk!
Mr. Irawan turned his head weakly as Reizvan opened the door with Ardhita. There was a woman sitting on guard and standing as they went inside. Throwing a sigh of relief and nod that the son and Ardhita responded with the same attitude.
"Assalamu'alaikum, Pa," Reizvan greeted me by approaching Mr. Irawan and greeting his hand for a moment.
"Wa'alaikumsalam's chat. Who are you coming with?" asked Irawan, it sounded weak and difficult.
"Look, Pa. .. who am I carrying," Reizvan said as he straightened his back and let go of his hand. Then move backwards, showing a beautiful figure to Mr. Irawan.
"Sir Irawan" said Ardhita. Immediately salam and kissed the hand of Mr. Irawan.
Ardhita was still standing so close to the patient's bed. Because, his hand continues to be held even though it is not strong by Mr. Irawan.
"You're Adit?" Mr. Irawan seemed happy to look at the nodding Ardhita.
"Yes, Sir. I'm Adit, the foster child that you helped finance from small. Thank you, now I'm done with school, sir," Ardhita said politely. Hope to encourage even if only in a way to say so.
"Yes .. yes ... Equally, papa is also very happy, Dit. It's been a long time not seeing you. You have grown up well and become such a beautiful girl. It feels so proud to have a girl like you. Adam must always feel happy," said Mr. Irawan with gasps. Unexpectedly, tears melted from both eyes of Mr. Irawan.
"Sir Irawan, are you crying? Did I make you feel sad?" Ardhita was amazed by the water that came out of the eyes of Mr. Irawan. Reizvan approached the bed and stood next to his sister.
"Papa remembers when you were little, so sad that time. You join your father in the building project every day. Adam can't leave you alone at home. That time your mother left your father, took your brothers with another man. But your mother still wants to be endowed with material by your father. You were a little girl, Dit."
Mr. Irawan no longer cries, but still holds Ardhita's hand. The old man still wanted to be heard.
"At that time, I accidentally saw me replace Adam's ailing father as a building foreman. You pity me, then make me a foster child until now. Thank you, yes Pa ...."
Ardhita welcomed the happy review of Mr. Irawan to him in the past. His eyes were watering and flowing. It feels sad to remember a childhood without a mother. Pain, sad..
"You could replace your father as a building foreman, Dit? How old were you then?" reizvan asked interjected, his face stunned.
"Papa was very salute and pity Ardhita. Just like you, do not have a mother," said Mr. Irawan responding to his son's question.
Ardhita and Reizvan were not with their mothers when they were children. Ardhita and her father, left by their biological mother with another man. The mother had an affair and went to bring her two older brothers. Give up Ardhita with Mr. Adam, because the husband firmly holds the youngest girl.
While Reizvan, is the only child of puppets left by biological mothers from the world when they just graduated from SD. However, Mr. Irawan left it to his older sister in Jakarta. Mr. Irawan's older sister also has only one single son. Very happy to receive Reizvan to be nurtured until now.
"Reiz, does Irvoni still not want you to apply?" ask sir Irawan suddenly. Reizvan looked dizzy for a moment.
"Irvoni's been very busy lately, Pa. I haven't had a chance to talk yet" Reizvan said, trying to calm down. He didn't want his father to be upset. Mr. Irawan has forbidden to bring Irvoni to visit if he still refuses the proposal of his beloved son.
"Don't lie, Reiz. Don't hide anything from me" said Mr. Irawan firmly and sharply. Fertigo in the head seems to have improved quickly.
Reizvan who felt insinuated, just silence does not refute. It would be unfair to keep making up stories with his weak father.
"Better you guys split up," said Mr. Irawan suddenly with a soft but very firm. This made Reizvan surprised.
"There's still plenty of opportunities, Pa. Irvoni is not too mature. I am also a 28 year old man. Still long, Pa ...." Reizvan tried to give understanding to Mr. Irawan.
"Reizvan! Why are you only concerned about yourself?! Do not try to lick your tongue. Papa told you to get married, because Papa is old, sickly. Do you want to get married when you have no parents at all? You don't want to get married with Papa?? Don't want your kids to see Papa?!"
Mr. Irawan spoke out loudly, like he was not bearing any pain at all. Very firm and sharp talking. His eyes glittered like a healthy person. Mr. Irawan looks very excited.
Reizvan closed his lips and mouth. I feel sad for my beloved father's words. He is not insensitive and does not understand the intentions and desires of his father. But how else, Irvoni still did not want to apply.
"Reiz, leave your girlfriend, forget about Irvoni. There's another girl who's much better than your boyfriend." Mr. Irawan spoke after sitting leaning on the bed with the help of getting up by Reizvan.
"Papa told me to dump Irvoni for another girl?! I can't, that's where I might do it, Pa!" Reizvan refused his papa's instructions out loud.
"Papa really likes that girl! Don't you want to know, who?!" Mr. Irawan spoke loudly and ignored the rejection of his son.
"Marry Papa's daughter. Your job is to persuade him that he will accept your proposal," said Mr. Irawan firmly by staring intently at the son.
"I mean Papa?!" Reizvan looked flabbergasted. Although it has often been heard and suspected, still not ready to hear it.
She looked at Ardhita beside her. The one who was struck was also stunned to see Mr. Irawan and his son alternately.
