Love for Zahra (END)

94. Can't Hear 2

With a smile that did not disappear from both corners of her lips, the little girl who had just delivered the man who became her first love was back in her brother's nursery. In the room still he continued to imagine the incident a moment ago that made his heart rustle.

"Fel, don't smile. You're scaring the Mother!" reprimand the mother who sat with her brother.

"Mother disturb me. I know, Bun," the little girl grumbled.

From his bed, Zahra watched the little brother beaming. She knew there must be something Rey did to her sister. Because he also knew that his sister liked him.

"Sir Ega, why is the tumben not maintained here? Usually he is the most excited if Mbak entered RS," said Efelin suddenly.

"Fel," reprimanded the mother.

"What are you talking about?" asked Zahra in a soft voice. His eyes were back in tears because he did not hear a sound at all paled the hum in his ears.

"Mother, if Ms Zahra can't hear what next?" asked the girl to start thinking about the worst possibility of her brother.

"Mother. Watch your talk! Your mother must be cured! Don't say anything weird" said Mrs Ratih.

On his seat Zahra could only cry without a sound. Not being able to hear anything disappointed him and devastated by what happened to him.

"Please handle all the work," said Ega rusar.

"I'm sorry, sir, today you have to meet a new client who will work with us" replied the woman next to him.

"Is that important?"

"Very peting, sir. The benefits of this cooperation can reach hundreds of millions each month. Because they're a pretty influential food distributor in the market."

"I'll ask you to help Papa take his place. Accompany her."

"Sorry, Sir. Mr. Adnan just left for Surabaya."

"God! Are you deliberately keeping me here!" ega shouted at his secretary.

"I'm sorry, sir. It is also for the good of the company. I know you're worried about your fiancee. But I think she wouldn't mind knowing you're really busy today" she reassured.

Ega threw his body on the sofa in his room. The other woman was his secretary who remained standing nearby

"Go!"

"But you have to promise me that I will not leave this important meeting" she said. The man shook his hand and told his secretary to leave the room.

With a heavy heart the secretary left his superior. Slowly he closed the door of Ega's room and returned to his desk.

"What beauty is Pak Ega's fiancee until she feels love for the woman?" that secretary's guman.

"Where can I get information about the woman? I should be able to surpass Mr. Ega's fiancee in order for Mr. Ega to be interested in me."

"But it was my intensity to meet Mr. Ega more than he did. hem. Daan! Surely Mr. Ega will turn to me. Uh! good girl Mila, you're smart. Hence it could be the secretary of a rich and handsome boss anyway. The windfall of a beautiful woman will not be changed."

Meetings with clients conducted Ega went smoothly. They successfully signed a cooperation contract for the next five years. It was an excellent achievement for Ega who incidentally just plunged into managing the company of the papa.

"Congratulations, Sir. Great and wonderful father!" praise Mila the secretary.

"Yes. Thank ye. Thanks to your help too we can cooperate with them."

"I'm just helping as much as I can, sir. Because it is my duty as a secretary, Mr" replied Mila timidly.

"Mila," call Ega.

"Yes, Sir?"

"The hours of work are over. You can go home after this. I go first." Ega got up from his seat and walked away from his secretary.

*********

The journey is long enough for Ega to reach the hospital where Zahra is being treated. Reminds me that this time is indeed the time to go home from work. Traffic jams happen everywhere. Especially in the Malang area of the city.

A few tens of minutes walking with the streets, he arrived at the hospital. The man immediately parked his car and rushed to his fiancee's room.

"Assalamualaikum," he said, opening the door.

"Waalaikumsalam," they answered simultaneously.

"Sir Ega, how come you're here?" efelin.

"Sorry, two days ago I was really busy, so I can't come here. Sorry, Bun, yes" said the man as he greeted his future mother-in-law.

"Yes, ndak papa, Le," replied Mrs Ratih.

"Where is Zahra, Bun? When can I go home?" asked the man when he saw his fiancee sleeping.

Madam Ratih was speechless, it was hard to tell what her daughter was going through at the moment. His words seemed to be stuck in his throat.

"Bun?"

"Fleshy?"

The two people he asked no one answered. Makes Ega look anxious.

"Is there anything bad that happened to Zahra?" ask the man again.

"Mbak Zahra can't hear, brother. Yesterday he could still be heard, he said our voices were far away. And he said he couldn't hear any sound" said Efelin.

"You mean? Mother? Efelin is not like that, right? Zahra's fine, isn't she?"

Madam Ratih came back crying as if she remembered that. He can't speak anything.

Ega walked up to Zahra. He watched his girl who was closed with puffy eyes.

"Honey," said Ega by wiping and kissing the hand of his fiancee.

Zahra who was disturbed by Ega's movements opened her eyes. He saw the face of the man he loved right in front of him.

"Gee, are you here?" zahra.

"Yes, Honey. I'm right here. You can hear my voice, can't you, honey?" ask the man to make sure himself and hope that what he says his sister-in-law is not true.

"Ega .. I'm afraid, I don't hear any sound," the girl argued.

"Darling, you're not kidding anymore, are you? You can still hear my voice, right?"

Zahra was crying. Makes Ega believe that what Efelin says is true.

"Mother, we have to take Zahra to a hospital in the city with more complete facilities" said Ega.

"She had just done an examination, and the doctor had just removed a lot of fluid from inside her ear."

"Mother mean liquid?"

"The injury from the impact of the ball was an infection. And there's liquid pooling in his eardrum. The doctor is still doing lab tests, and also suggests for a hearing test, you forgot what the doctor called a test."

"We'll do the test at the hospital in the city. We'll move as soon as the test results come out. No, Papa, right, Mother? It's for Zahra's good, too."

"Yes. Mother also wants the best for Zahra."

In his place, the girl he was talking about was watching them blankly. From his two eyes did not stop the torrent of clear circles wetting his cheeks.
