Love and the Past

Part 167's

Magrib's time is over. However, there were no signs the operation would be completed yet, leaving the person waiting for Salsa a little uneasy. Rayhan circulated his gaze to look for someone but he did not find it.

"Where's azka?" rayhan asked Keenan who was closing his eyes.

"Still in the mosque" Keenan replied without opening his eyes.

"Well?"

Rayhan immediately got a kick from Dito. "What do you think about going to the mosque? How about a charity box?"

"It could be, who knows Azka forgot himself if he was rich," Rayhan replied casually.

"Pala lo pea," said Ricky, with Rayhan's head.

"Shut up!" samuel's orders kept the others silent.

Dance could only dodge seeing the behavior of her son's friends. They are really loyal friends, they are willing not to go to school to accompany Azka in Badung.

The door of the operating room opened along with the arrival of Azka from the Mosque. The man's face was still fresh and his hair was slightly wet. Azka held him back.

"Where is Salsa doctor?" ask Azka.

"Condition is stable, operation is running smoothly. We didn't expect Salsa's body to respond so well to the kidneys and donors" explains Jesy.

"Salsa will soon be transferred to her ward. Soon he'll be conscious after the drug's influence is gone" he continued.

"Reni, come with me for a second," pinta Jesy.

Inti Avegas and Tari expressed gratitude hearing Jesy's explanation. What they were worried about didn't happen.

The night is getting late. However, Salsa was not yet conscious, making Azka did not want to move even a little beside the bed. Even he had not eaten from lunch, he did not feel hunger because he was too worried about the state of his lover.

Inti Avegas also Tari has gone home after making sure Salsa is fine. And Azka's permission will be to take care of Salsa until the girl gets out of the hospital.

"Son, eat something first, Salsa is fine" ordered Reni who was not too worried about her daughter. He was a doctor so he understood Salsa's condition.

"Titip Salsa for a moment, Auntie still has some business outside."

"Yes Aunty" said Azka without turning her eyes from the pale face of Salsa.

"Sleep you're beautiful Sal, how about you wake up and smile" muttered Azka stroking Salsa's cheek with her thumb.

"Please, I'll be here with you, until I get well."

The clock indicates the number 1. Azka began to be attacked by drowsiness that was not expected, making her sleep next to the bed with a sitting position and holding her lover's hand.

at three o'clock in the morning, Azka felt someone stroking her head, she looked up to see who would dare to disturb her sleep. The corner of his lips was immediately attracted to find Salsa smiling towards him.

"Azka," said Salsa.

"Why, hm? You need anything? Wanna drink?" Azka immediately moved, about to press the bell to call the doctor, but Salsa prevented it.

"I'm not papa, don't call anyone" Salsa said.

"Thank you for the promise to make it back." Azka kissed Salsa's hand many times.

"Of course I'm back, I can't possibly let you wait too long" Salsa joked, though her voice was still heavy.

As Salsa's consciousness recovered, the pain in the incision wound became more pronounced, leaving Salsa unable to hold it until small rings were heard.

Without waiting again Azka pressed the button to call the doctor, not long after doctors Jesy returned with Reni after hearing her son was awake.

Jesy meticulously inspected some of Salsa's vitals, and everything was normal. The pain felt by Salsa is very common felt by other patients. Jesy's doctor prescribed some anti-pain medications as well as anti-rejection drugs specifically for kidney transplants.

"Your daughter is a great Reni" said Jesy.

Reni just laughed in response to Jesy's joke. "Mommy's son is now focused on recovery, can't feel the head." The head of Salsa.

"Yes Ma, Salsa's gonna finish all your mama's sayings."
