Lara's Admirers

Episode 11

"Sha, isn't this hour supposed to be getting on a plane?" Ask the man.

　

　

  He did not have any major injuries, only blisters in some parts. But it worries me about him. You could say the condition is quite good than the other passengers. This hospital ward has been filled with the victims of the plane. Thankfully, neither the passengers nor the crew were seriously injured.

　

　

"Sha!" The man's heart.

　

　

"Huh? Yes, Sen." My answer that just slipped out of my daydream.

　

　

"Lo why dream?"

　

　

"Ah? Not really."

　

　

"How important was the cave question?"

　

　

"Huh? Which question?"

　

　

"It must have been a dream."

　

　

  I just grinned as if innocent in this situation. Although I was actually daydreaming earlier.

　

　

"Lo's not back in Siantar? You should be at the airport now. Maybe the plane is leaving now."

　

　

"Biarin. Bodo is very."

　

　

"Well, what is it?"

　

　

"Yes, when I left my brother alone here."

　

　

"Keep your ticket?"

　

　

"Yes scorched la."

　

　

"How do you keep going back?"

　

　

"Can be tomorrow or when. Still tired, though. Time from Japan directly to Indonesia directly fly again to Kualanamu, continue to take the train to Medan station. Continue to take the bus to Siantar. So tired, brother."

　

　

"Yes the cave knows. Where do you want to go?"

　

　

"In the hospital."

　

　

"Well?"

　

　

"Yes while taking care of my sister. In the hospital for free."

　

　

"Yes, you're the free cave."

　

　

"It's okay that it's important you get well quickly."

  I stood on the hospital balcony checking my phone occasionally. Renata decided to take my suitcase with her back to Siantar. Fortunately, I was carrying a small sling bag containing a few important things. I think my body wants to collapse right now. It was a really exhausting journey. That's right said Sendy. I shouldn't have come back to Indonesia so soon. But, yes it is. I'd rather not linger there. It's ten o'clock in the night, Brother Sendy should have fallen asleep. I don't even know where to sleep tonight. Or maybe I'll stay up all night. I haven't even eaten anything since noon.

　

　

"In front of this hospital there is a stall, right?" I murmured in my heart.

　

　

  I immediately headed for the stairs at the end of the corridor. The ward where Sis Sendy was treated was on the second floor, so it's fine if I go down using the stairs. Thankfully there is still a chicken porridge stall open at this hour. I decided to eat there while spending my sleep. Already at half-eleven, I returned to the ward where Kak Sendy was treated while carrying a packet of chicken porridge that I deliberately brought for him.

Who is that woman, I know her. I tried to get close to the woman sitting next to Brother Sendy's bed. They look so familiar.

　

　

"Eh, Eresha lo where did the cariin cave come from." Sahut Kak Sendy's.

　

　

  Without poking the question just now, I immediately accelerated my pace towards their current position. Then put the plastic package of chicken pulp on the table provided beside it.

　

　

"the diamonds? Aye? Shouldn't you be back in Siantar by now?" Ask wonder.

　

　

"It should be. It was just a cave with news from the airport. And the cave is in a hurry to get here." Obviously the girl.

　

　

"Who are you here to?"

　

　

　

　

"Where do you want to sleep tonight?"

　

　

"It's okay at the hospital, right? All the caves guard Kak Sendy."

　

　

"Oh that's it."

　

　

  Why did Renata have to show up again. I should be in his position now. But wait, I should have been self-aware. I'm nobody, Brother Sendy. I don't even know if my presence is considered or not.

　

　

"Yaudah this is the porridge of the cave buyin for Brother Sendy earlier. Don't forget to eat." I said while pointing towards the chicken porridge.

　

　

"Have you eaten?" Ask Brother Sendy.

　

　

"Udah. Just calm down." My reply.

　

　

"Two bribes yes Sen." Renata Tawar.

　

　

  Actually, if I may, I'd love to be in Renata's position right now. Maybe if I didn't have humanity, I could just now take the porridge from his grasp. But I better give up for now.

　

　

"Jaudah cave out first." My permission.

　

　

"Where are you going to gini?" Ask Brother Sendy.

　

　

"You're looking for fresh air." My answer.

　

　

"But this is malem. It's cold outside." Advice that man to me.

　

　

  I ran out of the ward. Actually, I can't stand to see their affection there. I knocked myself down in the waiting chair in front of the ward. Maybe I should sleep here tonight. There was also Renata inside. There's no way I'm sleeping inside. There is no place left for sure.

　

　

***

　

　

   Darkness has enveloped me. My eyes closed without my knowledge. The cold weather is sharp. I haven't slept completely. Between conscious and not. If it can be likened, my soul is not yet fully in my subconscious. I could feel someone coming towards me. Maybe another patient, or a nurse who's having a night shift. I don't really care about that.

　

　

***

　

　

"Hoam."

　

　

  Good morning, welcome to the new day. I hope today is better than yesterday. May the universe be friendly with all humans. May the whole world be happy today. I took a deep breath and then threw it away. It was a refreshing morning air. I opened my eyes slowly. The friendly sunshine greeted my netra. It was as if it had turned cold last night. I just realized one thing. Who her? He drowned his face on my shoulders. I hesitantly pulled away some of the hair that covered her face. Brother Sendy? Why is he here? Has he been here since last night? Then where's Renata? I can't wake him up. He looked as tired as I might have been. I put my head to his head. Suddenly a hand stroked my cheek.

　

　

"Have you woken up yet?" Ask the man and then get up.

　

　

  He still looks sleepy. He shouldn't be here. And we just covered his favorite Hoodie hitan. This guy is really crazy. He was sick and should have stayed in bed. I was disappointed with Renata. Where he went, carelessly letting this reckless man sleep outside.

　

　

"Why are you sleeping outside?" My toot.

　

　

  It took me a while to answer my question. He seems to be still collecting some of his life that is still left behind in the dream.

　

　

"Yes nemenin lo lah. Pack everything."

　

　

"Kok not in dalem aja kak, with Renata. Brother's sick even sleeping outside."

　

　

"Renata yesterday suddenly on the phone with his mother and told to quickly return to Siantar. He said there's family business."

　

　

"Keep why sleep outside anyway."

　

　

"Males sleeps in a narrow, stuffy, breathless cave. Why are you sleeping outside?"

　

　

"Egypt."

　

　

  Although that's not really the reason. It's just, there's no way I'd say I should sleep outside because of Renata.

　

　

"Lo must be really tired huh? Until the fall of all."

　

　

  I just smiled thinly. A smile that I cannot understand myself.
