"Sick?", asked Mas Adam to Dena who looked slightly grimacing.
Dena nodded small.
That day Dena went to the hospital not for dialysis, but she came to open the stitches of her former cimino surgery one week ago. Actually, the surgeon gave a control letter to open the stitches in the surgeon's room. But Mas Adam said he could just open the stitches, rather than Dena having to wait a long time with the queue at Poli. After all this was a nice thing for Dena, it meant that this week she got a three-time schedule to meet the man.
Adam with his heart opened one by one the stitches in Dena's skin. Being in such a close distance like this makes Dena seem to forget the pain that this one week reached her hand. How not free he to move, even a shower he had to close his former surgery with plastic because it could not be exposed to water.
" Slightly swollen yes, but this is natural to happen.later will also be deflated for a long time" Mas Adam said while cleaning the skin around the stitches with alcohol.
" Ahhh, why was this man created so perfectly?", Dena for so many times admired that man. He was still busy staring at every inch of the warm face that was perfectly sculpted with sturdy jaws filled with fine hair around him, when the sound of the door of the room opened to disperse his thoughts.
A boy of about five years old, ran to Dena and Mas Adam and called a word that made Dena's body feel like it wanted to decay to earth...
" Papa.".", the boy yelled running his arms to Mas Adam.
" What is this?" , Dena had not found an answer to what she had heard just now, behind the door appeared a woman who was estimated to be 30 years old, Dena, with long hair in the ponytail, a pure white skin that is commensurate with the shape of his body. In his right hand he was holding a small spiderman backpack. The woman may not be as beautiful as Dena, but it cannot be denied that she is an attractive woman.
He walked over to Dena and Mas Adam, finding him getting closer, his breath felt as if he saw the Death Trench that was preparing to take his life.
" I'm sorry, I came here without telling you"
" Juna was after school to take me to eat in XX (name the shopping center next to the Hospital Building)"
" Then Juna asked to stop by here for a while to see you" said the woman in her meek voice.
While the boy was already entangled in Mas Adam's arms.
" Kangen papa ya Nak" said Mas Adam while kissing the soft cheek of the boy.
Dena was like piercing a thousand daggers, seeing what was happening before her. He was like being thrust by embers that hit him in the chest. From what he saw, he could guess that the boy named Juna was the son of Mas Adam, and the woman standing next to him was his wife.
I don't know what he should do, it feels like he just wants to run from this room, unable to accept the real reality that God presents to him today.
" Dena, know this is my wife Lisa and this is our son Juna", Mas Adam casually introduced them to Dena without realizing the change in the look of Dena's face filled with disappointment.
Lisa reached out to Dena, smiling warmly calling out her name.
" lisa..."
Dena mentioned his name a little stammered, he tried to raise his head up so that the tear did not fall.
" Let's say hello to Aunt Dena son" said Mas Adam while lowering Juna from his sling.
" Hi aunt, I'm Juna.. What's aunt doing here?"
" What is Papa's aunt?", the funny voice of the little boy that Dena used to love all the little kids instantly turned into a burning hatred.
He hates this boy, hates the woman he calls his mama.
Dena forced a smile, answering briefly
" No, aunt is not Papa's friend. Auntie's just your papa patient here", in Dena's heart screamed to say
" No. I'm not your Papa's friend, I'm a silent woman who loves your Papa, I'm a woman who is hoping for your papa. And look now that you're with your mother, you're breaking all that" Dena seemed to sting with her breath.
He stood up, took his bag. He doesn't want to stay here long.
" Thank you Adam for his help, I have to go home now", Dena was unable to see Mas Adam's face when saying that.
Dena did not even touch Lisa who was still standing next to her, she just passed by and died in the room. Holding back the tears that had almost fallen.
" Dena... wait", the voice of a man makes a step Dena stopped in the hospital hallway .
Dena looked over, well acquainted with the voice.
" Luke, why did you call me?" said Dena, wiping her wet eyes.
" I hope you can hold your anger"
" You can't go home alone driving your car with this kind of anger" Luke held Dena's hand.
Dena did not try to answer anything, only her tears were getting spilled.
Luke had been aware of Dena's feelings for Mas Adam since they first met. But this man had no chance to just say stay away from Mas Adam because he was a married man. Dena never gave Lukas a chance to talk much.
" I'm fine, go back to the Room", Dena half-snaps at Luke trying to remove Luke's hand from his hand.
Dena continued her steps, leaving Luke speechless to stare at the woman's back which was getting further away. He walked half-running, ignoring the people who saw his tears that kept on breaking down his face.
" Lord.if I have failed, why from the beginning he did not give a sign"
" Now give me time to set aside to accept the real and not about the meaning"
Dena screamed inwardly, cursing her stupidity. Stupid, not even using his common sense to realize how it is possible for a mature man aged 33 years is not even just having a lover, but already has a wife and children.
" Stupid....dumb..., why do I let myself get hurt in my own hopes", Dena kept on cursing herself.
" Why?"
" Why do you make everything look beautiful?"
" Why did you let me fall in love with all the warmth you gave me?"
" And now that I know the truth, you don't even realize I'm hurt so bad".
Dena ran towards the vehicle parked in the hospital yard, opened the car door and then closed with her slamming.
His face had been dirty with tears, he was regulating his stingy breath due to his too deep emotions.
The face of the woman named Lisa continues to ring in his memory, alternating present with the face of a little boy named Juna whose face is similar to Mas Adam, who is also known as the, then without shame the warm man's face was still present in his memory.
There is nothing wrong, Dena is not wrong about her feelings all this time because she never knew what the status of the man was, Mas Adam also did not intend to play with the feelings of Dena because really all this time he did was just because he wanted Dena to continue to be excited, consider the woman like his sister who he was obliged to protect.
But misunderstandings have already occurred.
Goddess Amor.....
Teach me how to forget without leaving
Teach me how to let go without hate
Teach me how to heal without hurting my heart.
The woman now seems to lose the direction of her life, she does not know how she will have to step. What was the purpose of his life now should he bury in his mutual disappointment.
Dena drove her car at a high speed, the tears constantly wetting her net. The sound of his cell phone ringing many times, he just glanced to see who was calling him. Not intending to lift it at all. Hasbi called her, wanted to make sure her sister was where . Late last this Hasbi did let her sister go to the hospital by driving her own car.
Dena arrived home and headed straight for her room, not caring about Mom who was staring at her confused daughter who was coming home with red eyes and a disheveled face. He threw his body on the bed, still crying and feeling disappointment until his eyes were tired and asleep with a face wet with tears.
