Wednesday morning...
The time is still showing at 6:30 am, but Dena has arrived at the hospital parking lot to park her car. He arrived early so he could finish before lunch.
Today Dena's appearance was not like the usual day when she went to the hospital. He wore a neat uniform worthy of his office employees. Knee-length black skirt with flower-patterned pastel color blouse combined with black blazer. He also wears high heels, which makes his appearance even more different.
After returning from the hospital he had to come to his office immediately, so he decided to wear such official clothes to the hospital.
When he arrived at the Hemodialysis Room still looked quiet, there were only four nurses who used to be on duty. It seems that Dena was the first patient to come this morning. Dena headed for the scales at the entrance of the room. Her body weight rose by 2 kg, that meant there were about 2 liters of fluid that settled in her body. Later during the dialysis process the nurse will adjust the pull in the hemodialysis machine as much as the patient's weight gain . When finished undergoing dialysis, the weight will be reduced as much as it is. If left to settle too much in the body, there will be edema or swelling in the body. Usually in the legs, stomach or face. Therefore, patients with dialysis patients are required to diet fluids.
Dena walked towards her bed at the end of the room, she passed by the nurses' desk. Of course the man he was avoiding was sitting there. While Risma, Laras and Luke seemed busy preparing the machine and other equipment equipment .
" Dena, you've come so early" the man's voice actually wants to stop Dena's steps. But he did not do, he still walked as if he did not hear the voice of Mas Adam.
Adam sighed, he thought for a few days he ignored himself today Dena was able to behave as usual. Adam observed the appearance of Dena today, as did Laras, Risma and Luke.
" Morning Dena seems to be different from your clothes today", Luke asked representing his colleague's question.
Dena was already sitting on her bedside, taking off the shoes she was wearing. Actually, he was lazy to answer Luke's question, but seeing the faces of Risma, Laras and Mas Adam on the other end of it seemed they were just as curious
" Yes, I'm now working" Dena replied briefly.
Luke still continued to question Dena. Dena answered as she could.
Adam, who had heard Luke and Dena's conversation from a distance, concluded that "Maybe he's been busy with his work for a few days so he doesn't have time to return messages from me".
Adam approached Dena who was measuring his blood pressure by Luke. Dena did not want to look at the man, he seemed to not consider the existence of Adam near her.
" Well I stay, your private nurse has arrived" Lukas said, chuckling at Dena. Then Luke passed, leaving Dena and Adam both there.
" Did I make a mistake with you?", Adam stared fixedly at Dena's eyes.
Dena was silent, she felt it was the right choice.
" Talk to me, don't act like this" Adam was half begging.
"Who are we? Who we are, but why do you treat me like I'm the most precious person in your life" Dena shouted in silence.
" You're okay, right?", Adam still hasn't given up until the woman opens her voice.
" You remember, you once promised to be excited about anything, you should always be happy. And I promised myself to always take care of you" Adam's voice sounded heavier.
"I don't want to promise anything, because I don't like to be in a confusing position full of uncertainty" Dena finally said.
There is a meaning behind his answer.
The best analogy of the heart is to love without excuse.
Alone knocks silently hoping that love is present like a symphony.
Hugging tightly hope that seems to be busy denying.
Melting a thousand rattles that in fact can not drive away deserted.
What do you expect from a heart?
Isn't it true that everything that comes will be forced away.
Then why remain determined to bridge yourself.
Repay the crumbs that attach the taste of more and more terpatri.
Come on, why don't you just try to keep yourself grounded.
***Hemodialysis room that morning was already full by the patient. Beds lined up facing each other have now been crowded with the voices of the families of patients who are interspersed with the sound of alarm alarm alarm warning from a machine that is mutually unpretentious.
" Is it true that without me realizing I've fallen in love with the beauty I originally thought of as my sister?".
Adam still asked in his heart, looking for the meaning of Dena's answer which he said he did not like with uncertainty.
" You're wearing a short skirt today, let me cover your legs with a blanket so you don't get cold" Adam pulled the blanket over Dena's body.
" Lord.Why is he still warm to me?"
'' Should I step forward or back?".
" Healthy continues yes Den", Mas Adam rubbed Dena's head then turned the body about to return to its place .
" What about your wife?", Adam stopped his steps hearing Dena's question.
Frown...
" My wife?.. She's fine"
Dena is actually still harboring jealousy every discussing Mas Adam's wife.
"I mean, is there a wife who would let her husband pay attention to another woman?", Dena asserted the meaning of the question.
Dena's question hit Adam's chest, it was like the dilemma of facing two of the same women he thought.
" He asked me to keep your distance"
" But you can see, I've never been able to do that".
Mas Adam's answer just left Dena on the verge of anxiety, guessing how this man really felt about her.
Adam passed by, leaving Dena with an unanswered question.
Dena's phone rang, an incoming call from Hasbi was immediately picked up by Dena.
" Dena's sister has started washing her blood?", asked Hasbi directly on purpose.
" Already, it will be finished before lunch I will go to the office immediately"
" Does that guy still treat Kak Dena special?"
" Ordinary, I don't respond to it", Dena did not want to tell her sister how warm the man's attitude was, even more showing his feelings must still be vaguely felt.
" Alright then, Brother Dena heart ya later on the road.. Bye.", Hasbi terminated her phone connection.
"Huuhh basic Hasbi.he called me just because he wanted to know how Mas Adam behaved".
Dena increasingly resolved to find a new soul mate for Hasbi, so that her younger brother stopped worrying too much about her and set his pace. According to Dena, her sister needs a lover so that her mind is not only focused on my relationship with Mas Adam.
Dena glanced at Laras who seemed to be busy preparing plaster to cover the former butterfly needle of the patients if they have finished washing the blood. It seems that Dena is convinced to start a plan to bring Hasbi and Laras together.
Four hours of dialysis time he spent arranging Hasbi and Laras meeting plans. It seems like Dena needs Puji's help because she's the only one she can say is a friend to her.
That day he managed to get the phone number Laras. From today Dena seems to have to be friendly to Laras, so that she can easily match with Hasbi.
...---------------...
What do you think Dena's plan for Hasbi is?
Could Laras be the right girl for his little brother?
