I Love Your Wife
The Part 102
Dewantara was seen pacing the door of the emergency department of a hospital where Ricko was conducting an examination. Yes, they immediately took Ricko to the hospital when they found Ricko unconscious in his house earlier. The man looked very worried especially when he tried to hear Ricko's heartbeat he could not hear it clearly.
Shinta himself looks ordinary because he thought it was only an effect because Ricko drank too much but he did not expect if the man turned out to be a forbidden drink even though according to the story of the Dewantara earlier the man never seen touching the illegal goods but he can understand maybe because Ricko is stressed with the problems they are facing.
The door of the room was opened and the Devantara was the first person to rush through the door to get accurate information from the doctor. "How's doc doing?". Ask Dewantara directly.
The doctor looked lethargic and let out a long sigh as if to signal if there was anything serious he would say that made the once relaxed Shinta become a little worried. "How can he touch the illicit goods that are indeed very abstained for him?, fortunately you guys are quick to bring here if not then the heartbeat has stopped at this time". Serious doctor said.
Degs....
Like there is an emphasis on every word spoken by the doctor just now as if the doctor already knows very well the medical history of the patient named Ricko. "Ma-have that?". Shinta asked curiously.
"Are you Shinta?".
"Yes, the doctor knows me?". Shinta asked curiously.
"Not personally but Mr Ricko often tells about you, do you not know about the history of your husband's illness miss?". Hearing the doctor's words Shinta was increasingly curious because instead of just being right about guessing his name, the doctor also knew if he was Ricko's wife not to mention the doctor was discussing a disease that increasingly confused Shinta.
"Pe-disease?".
"Surely you don't know yet but now you should know even though your husband will definitely forbid me from telling anyone about this. Mr. Ricko has congenital heart disease but because he keeps a healthy diet and life so far he still survives to this extent but because he consumes forbidden drinks his disease is getting worse because it looks like he's been consuming it for a few days not to mention the stress and control schedule he's been ignoring for a few months, so Mr. Ricko is currently in a critical and coma". Obviously the doctor who made Shinta's leg suddenly limp instantly.
No tears fell Shinta was still unable to digest what was really going on right now all felt so suddenly and made her chest feel tight. Coincidentally, they also brought Ricko to the hospital because it was the hospital that was closest to Ricko's house because it turns out Ricko had subscribed there long ago and from the doctor who it was named Eric that they finally knew if her husband was routine every week to check into the hospital.
Even according to doctors if Ricko had been advised several times to undergo a heart transplant donor but the man refused on the grounds he would only do so if asked by the woman he loved later.
Hearing this somehow Shinta's heart felt pinched because let alone suggest the best treatment for the husband she just did not know anything about her husband including about the man's feelings towards him.
Shinta let out a long sigh every time she heard surprise after surprise from the mouth of the doctor who seemed to know her figure very well. Doctor Eric was such a good friend of her husband that Ricko told her many things about Shinta.
"Dok, tell me what's best for Ricko right now?". Ask Shinta. The woman looked very stern despite the occasional sound of her voice shaking like it was holding back a cry.
"Can we do it soon?". At the moment Shinta and Eric only speak four eyes in the doctor's room because of Shinta's request, the woman does not want her family to worry about her husband's condition.
"First of all we have to make Mr. Ricko aware of his coma and after that taking Mr. Ricko abroad to do a major operation that was the best decision in my opinion".
"Is that possible with Ricko's current condition?".
"As I said earlier lady, she had to get up from her coma to go through a critical period and it could all just wait for a miracle from God". The doctor replied as if his mind was dead.
Shinta again took a deep breath, something she could not imagine if she had to lose Ricko before apologizing directly to her husband. "Can I see my husband doc?". Ask later.
"Of course, meet him and encourage him so he can be conscious and go through his critical period, miss, because I'm sure only you can do that".
Shinta stepped slowly towards her husband's bed where from a distance it was obvious that there were so many tools attached to the man's body. Shinta's chest was getting claustrophobic especially when she recalled how their last meeting was back then.
Sitting beside the bed, Shinta seemed very afraid to touch her husband when she wanted to do it.
Just shut up and sit down and do nothing but stare at her husband's pale face and Shinta's been doing it for almost half an hour. Until he finally encouraged her to make her voice. "You sleep very well here and I'm like a defendant who feels very guilty to you". Said the woman softly.
"Mas, why are you doing all this to make me feel so guilty like this?. Can't you wake up so that this guilt is a little less". Ask her husband again.
Shinta then reached out her hand to touch and caress the very hair of her husband, then went down to the face and finally she clasped Ricko's hand. Shinta dropped her face on this hand and immediately cried, her tears spilled without permission even to flow profusely in Ricko's hands, the woman had apparently completely shed tears that had been held in front of everyone.
Ricko's hand immediately responded as Shinta cried, slowly moving and Shinta was very surprised. "Ma-mas". Shinta said softly then she saw the eyes of her husband who began to move.
Shinta immediately wiped her tears and smiled widely so that Ricko would not see her crying and sure enough the man opened his eyes slowly. "Mas, are you conscious?". Ricko who looked extremely weak only hinted at his answer with his eyes.
"Mas, please do your best to stay afloat and I will also do my best to make you recover, we will fight together this time around mas". Shinta's whisper drew closer to Ricko's face and again the man hinted with his eyes if he would be okay.
