Last Port

A Regret

Lika slowly knocked on the door of the hospital room that was in front of her. No sound could be heard from inside the room, so he finally ventured to open the door.

Sarah, the occupant of the room appears to be sleeping weakly, in both hands still attached to the needle infusion, her eyes look concave, her body looks thin and looks some bones protruding.

Lika approached him slowly, there was no one here, she was sick in solitude. Lika looked at that face with compassion. Should Lika be jealous of Sarah in this condition? Lika felt guilty for what she had felt all along.

Slowly the closed eyes began to open, Sarah opened her eyes to clarify who was in front of her.

"It turns out you're Ms. Lika. I think who..." Sarah said softly. It seemed like he was expecting the presence of others.

"How are you, Sarah.I brought you some fruits..." Said Lika while putting a bag of fruits on the table.

"Well, as you can see.I'm just like this.Sometimes I'm very tired of being in this room..." Grumpy Sarah. His eyes glare.

"Sir..do you have no relatives or relatives in this city?" Ask Lika.

"My parents were far abroad.Since our relationship was not good...Bella is gone now, only my children are closest to me..." Sarah's Story. Lika listened carefully.

"I'll keep you company as long as I can.Take Sarah not to worry..." Holiday Lika.

"Oyeah, where's Ricky?" Sarah asked with eyes full of hope.

"Ricky was with the kids at home, he said he was very tired..." Answer Lika. From Sarah's eyes there was a bit of disappointment.

"Mom Lika..can you take me for a walk in the garden of this hospital? I want to get some fresh air..." Said Sarah. Lika Nodded her head.

Then Lika helps Sarah up the wheelchair in the room, after asking the nurse for permission, Lika starts to take Sarah down and take a walk around the hospital garden.

"Yesterday Ricky also took me for a walk here.Why I feel happy, it turns out he is a gentle man, even he also bribed me...I'll never leave it that time.ah.I'm really sorry..." Sarah Reveal.

"Yes, it's not too late to go back..." Said Lika.

"You are Miss Lika.now every day I always hope to continue with her.I feel my pain less if there is her next to me..." Connect Sarah. Lika only listened to all of Sarah's stories, occasionally she chimed in.

"When we were not separated.he was so romantic, every night always giving flowers with the greeting I love u...Then he would carry me to my room.but, when my ex-lover came.all changed.I also don't know why I was so willing to leave him..." Continue Sarah.

"Sarah shouldn't go.Pity Ricky and the kids..." Lika. His chest started to rumble.

"You're right Ms. Lika. That's why I'm so sorry..." Said Sarah. His eyes began to glaze over.

"It's been Sarah.all has happened..."

"Mom Lika.want you to help me.Repunity me with my family.I really need them now..." Please Sarah while looking at Lika's face.

"I.iya mbak.iya will help you.tak Sarah just calm down do not mind much.i promise..." Lika said with a smile.

"Thank you, Miss Lika, only now do I realize that I really love Ricky.

yesterday even he fell asleep on the side of my bed...Is there still my name in his heart?" Ask Sarah.

Lika was speechless unable to answer Sarah's question. His mind was glazed over, recalling his desire to get away from the lives of Ricky and his children.

"Ehmm.mbak, it's afternoon.we should go to the room yes.you also need to rest..." Said Lika. Sarah nodded her head.

Then Lika took Sarah back to her room, she helped lay Sarah to her bed, then Lika peeled some fresh fruit, then cut it and gave it to Sarah.

"Tonight I'll stay here looking after you..." Said Lika.

"Lho..wouldn't Ricky come?"

"He said he didn't want to take a break and accompany the kids..." Lika Sahut.

"Oh yes.indeed he needs to accompany the children.well.when I miss him tonight..." Said Sarah lirih.

Sarah just nodded slowly then she closed her eyes. Lika shuffled to sit on the sofa in the corner of the room, she let out a long sigh, then leaned on her slightly achy shoulders.

He grabbed his phone that was in his bag, there were some missed calls, the most of which was from Ricky. There are also some besan listed on Lika's phone.

"Lika...where are you? missed you..."

"Lika..are you busy? why didn't you answer my call?"

"Lika.tr thank you for the hugs and kisses you gave me. I always imagined it, and made me very happy..."

"Lika.please answer my phone.I want to hear your voice..."

There were many more messages, Lika immediately closed her phone, her chest was so tight.

Lika was crying in the silence of the room, her mind was completely muddled. He loves Ricky, but there are other women who need that love more.

Lika looked at that pale face before her, a face that somehow survived, would Lika bear to snatch away the hope of the woman? Lika had to make a quick decision, she had to give in, she had to retreat slowly. That was what was in Lika's mind at the moment.

**********

"Aaaaarrrrgggghh....!!! Sick...help me!!" Sarah's scream in the middle of the night shocked the sleeping Lika. Spontaneously the girl stood up, some of the sisters came in a hurry.

Sarah screamed in pain while holding her stomach, her teeth until it shook to endure the pain.

Then a doctor entered and immediately handled Sarah, given injections and sedatives.

"Has she always been like this sister?" Lika asked frantically at one of the sisters.

"Yes mbak..kalo again relapse is like that.but if his heart is happy again it seems like he is fine. keep giving him the spirit mbak..." Said the nurse.

Lika reached into her bag and grabbed her phone, and she called Ricky immediately.

"Hello Lika. you finally called too.I..."

"Come to the hospital now, sir.you must accompany Sarah..." Said Lika.

"Not now..."

"Now I beg you.."

"What's wrong? Don't worry about it too much..." Ricky.

"I beg you.let my children take care of him, as long as you are with Sarah sir..."

"Alright.I came.for your sake Lika..." Then the phone is turned off.

Sarah looked rather calm, her eyes looking blank. Slowly Lika approached him.

"Mr Sarah...Mr. Ricky is coming..." His whisper was soft in Sarah's ear.

"really?"

"Yes, believe me. He will not leave you.."

Sarah just smiled, there was hope in her bead.
