Love In Butterfly Needles
The hearted man of angels
The gold ring with the little pearl was back in a circle on Dena's right ring finger which he had opened some time ago .
Seen carefully, his left hand gently rubbed the ring remembering the man who had given it.
He promised that day, never to take off the ring from Adrian until anytime.
The sound of Adrian's car horn surprised Dena's daydream, as Adrian promised yesterday he would accompany Dena today to the hospital.
" I'm sorry Adrian, you have to lose 1 of your leave just to accompany me" said Dena when the car had started to run.
" No need to apologize Den, I would have lost my whole day if I had spent it with you", Adrian clasped Dena's fingers while his right hand was still holding the wheel.
The hospital parking lot seemed to be full of vehicles that day. Adrian clasped Dena's hand all the way to the fourth floor of the hospital.
After taking the registration and taking a blood sample for the test in the laboratory, they have to wait up to 1 hour to get the results.
" Adrian, soon his specialist will come".
" I'm curious about my health lab results".
" You don't worry, Dena, it's me".
" Whatever the result is I'm sure you're a great woman who can get through it all".
" It's easy that your health will start to improve".
" Miss Dena Sanlova".
Officers called Dena's name to immediately enter the Room Doctors specialist kidney and hypertension.
" Come, you don't have to be nervous" Adrian held Dena's hand tightly to make sure she would always be there.
Dena still remembered the face of the doctor who was in front of her now. A middle-aged woman who used to first advise her to wash her blood.
He was sitting in the chair in front of the doctor, while Adrian sat beside him.
" Dena sanlova?".
" Yes doc, I'm on my own".
" How are you doing now after your routine dialysis".
" There have been many advances doc, now it can be normal activities".
" It's just that there was a blood transfusion once during the dialysis" .
Dena explained the condition of her body that went down and up. He asked the doctor a lot about his health.
Adrian followed enthusiastically asked, listening to the explanation of doctors about chronic kidney failure disease. The end of all disease, the doctor said.
" This is your lab from Dena" the doctor handed Dena a piece of paper.
Dena was able to read it, for seven months in kidney failure verdict he learned many things.
" It seems there has been no good change Dena" said the doctor regretfully.
" Six months of dialysis is a time of evaluation for your development".
" Can it be reduced in frequency".
" It turns out that the results have not changed Dena, you have to continue to undergo twice a week to wash your blood".
Dena has prepared her heart to hear the worst, the experience has taught her not to expect too much not to be disappointed.
He saw the value in his lab paper earlier .
Ureums 118
Creatinine 9,2.
The numbers are still quite high and are still in the category of stage 5.
Adrian knows that Dena is actually disappointed, imagining his whole life he had to deal with a hemodialysis machine.
But he had to strengthen his lover.
" Do you think there's any other way besides dialysis?".
" Kidney failure disease has no cure, the therapy is given only so that patients can survive".
" In another sense dialysis is like a replacement kidney".
" There is also CAPD dialysis therapy that can be done independently at home but there is a big risk" the doctor explained to Adrian who is still lay with this.
" But there is one more if you want to live a normal life without dialysis" the doctor continued his remarks.
" What's a doc?", Adria excited.
" Kidney transplant or kidney transplant".
" In fact from the beginning I always suggested this to young patients like Miss Dena".
" How's the procedure doc?", Adrian just wanted to know while Dena herself just silently listened.
That man really wanted Dena's recovery.
" The process is a little complicated, takes a long time, a considerable cost of course".
" The most important thing is that there are people who want to donate their kidneys to patients".
" What should a person with a blood relationship be the donor?".
" It's better yes, because the fit is more than ninety percent".
" However, anyone else who has no blood relation if suitable can donate his kidney".
" Of course with a long series of tests".
Adrian mangosteen mangosteen heard the doctor's explanation.
But Dena seems not interested in the idea of kidney transplant.
At the beginning when he was sentenced to kidney failure, this path had been an alternative for him.
Will be very influential with their health after donating kidneys.
Dena does not want her parents to be sick because of her.
Hasbi and Kak Anjani also had the intention to donate one kidney to Dena.
And again Dena had reason to reject him. Hasbi is a man, still young, and one day he will build a household.
Of course his responsibilities as the head of the household will be greater, he needs a strong physique. If he only had one kidney it would be very influential with his physical strength .
Similarly, Anjani, her brother had a husband and children to take care of. It's impossible for Dena to accept a kidney donor offer from him.
After finishing with all his explanations, the doctor prescribes the drug as usual which is routinely consumed.
Dena also got a letter of introduction to move the hospital.
No more questions from Dena and Adrian, they came out of the doctor's room. Redeem the medicine at the pharmacy located on the first floor, then they go home.
The house still looked quiet when they arrived, Father and Hasbi were at work. Mother as usual at the place of Kak Anjani, visiting her grandchildren.
" Come in" 'Dena invited Adrian to sit on the living room couch.
" Today I understand many things about the pain you've been through".
Adrian looks at his lover, with eyes that say so heavy it feels to be you Dena.
" Are you still sure you want to live with this sick woman?"
" Hey..tell me what are you?".
" I've never had a problem with that"
" Even I intend to...".
Adrian has not continued his words, Dena confused guess what the intention is in Adrian's heart.
" Will he delay getting married?"
just like what Hasbi used to do. Dena speculates with her own thoughts, she is afraid this will be karma for her because it was once the cause of her sister's null marriage.
Again in his life Dena always prepared the heart to accept the worst that would happen.
" I intend to....."
" To donate one of my kidneys to you, Dena", Adrian said with sincerity.
By God, Dena was stabbed by a thousand daggers. This man he did not love wholeheartedly, the man he had betrayed, and he was a man who had no blood relation with Dena. But listen, he's even willing to give one of his kidneys to Dena.
Dena's glassy eyes not only said she was moved, but she felt so sinful that she never gave her best to Adrian.
You're so good Adrian, your heart is like an angel, Dena's mind keeps rumbling.
He shook his head repeatedly and then cried hugging the man.
" You don't fool Adrian, why would you sacrifice yourself for me", Dena still cried when she said that.
He slapped the chest of the man who was hugging him.
" I'll never want you to give me your kidney".
" Why Dena? I love you and I will be your husband".
" I am responsible for you and your happiness".
" You don't be stubborn fool".
" Let me be the dumbest man, if I can stop seeing you sick and keep dealing with that needle all your life".
" You heard, the doctor said we can still live with one kidney", Adrian was still adamant with his intentions.
" Adrian, I thank you for all your good intentions".
" I'm sorry I can't take it".
" I'm sincere with my destiny if I have to spend a lifetime in the hospital to wash my blood".
" It's not horrible for me anymore".
Dena loosened her hug on the man then looked back at his face.
" You're too good for this despicable and flawed me".
" How just God sent an angel in my life that was falling" Dena said in her heart .
" If you refuse now, I will wait until you accept it".
" Just like when you refused to marry me, look now that you've accepted me to be your future husband", Adrian smiled.
" That you can't equate" Dena said.
Adrian did not undo his intentions at all.
" When you're ready for a kidney transplant tell me".
" I will always prepare one of my kidneys for you".
Then a warm kiss landed on the woman's lips, as if silenced not to say no more.
A gentle kiss he always did to his lover, not in a hurry to do it. He whispered in the woman's ear.
" I can't wait to marry you, enjoy making love all night long in marriage".
......................
It's still a long journey like the love of Dena and Adrian.
There are still many obstacles in their marriage later.
