Merapi Never Ingkar Janji 2 (The Return of the Sultan)

SS. 36. Last Night at the Hospital

The sun began to hide its rays. The cold air was getting worse.

"It's almost seven o'clock, Mr. Al hasn't come yet." Mumbled himself.

Tata began to feel sad, alone walking back and forth without friends. Nindya, who had been joking since, was already sound in her sleep.

Like his promise to Mother and Nindya, tonight it was Tata's turn to accompany him. Without prior preparation, until the sultry feeling of not bathing and changing clothes began to hit

Curl ... concoct ...

In fact, the worms in his stomach joined the demo because of his actions.

Kolkhi ...

Someone opened the door to the ward.

"Assalamu'alaikum."

"Wa'alaikumsalam." The answer is a friendly smile.

"Sorry, long time ?"

"Rubber." Anita began to get familiar.

Same is the case with Al, who is getting used to Anita's presence around her.

"Nindya's asleep ?"

"It's Sir."

"Hmmmmmm...Here, you take a shower and change your clothes first. We eat that." Pinta Al's.

"Oh yes."

That was what he had been waiting for, taking a bath and eating. Heheheh....

Tata received the paper bag that Al gave her. There's a set of pajamas he can wear to rest tonight.

"This, you buy or ... ?"

"Or what ? Don't ask most of them. Shower soon I wait for dinner."

'I mean, do these pajamas belong to your wife ?' His comments were in a heart that he had not dared to say.

It didn't take long, Tata had already come out of the bathroom with the clothes Al gave her.

Al's eyes did not escape him. Feeling uncomfortable to notice, Tata busied himself by making warm tea and preparing a dinner menu that Al brought from outside.

"Oh yeah, he said there's something you want to ask, what's that ?" Ask Al in between his dinners.

"In addition, there is also something you want to express in protest. Whatever it is, I'm ready to wait." Say again.

"No sir, no, I forgot." He still enjoyed the food before his eyes.

"Or maybe there's something you want to ask me about the offer I made ?" Ask Al again, fishing Anita's memory.

Anita stopped her bribe. It feels like he has lost his appetite, if you have to while remembering about what if Pak Al's wife does not approve of Anita so Nindya's foster mother.

"It actually has something to do with the offer Mr. Al gave." He forced himself.

"Oh yeah, what is it ? Are you getting interested in the offer I gave you ?" Al asked, feeling that there was already a yellow light from his prey.

"Later, sir, enjoy your dinner." Tata's words ended his last mouthful.

A pack of rice paddies has moved. Gini it's time for Al to listen to what Tata wants to say.

"What time do you want to go home ?"

"You kicked me out ?" Al asked with an unorthodox expression he showed.

"No, that's not it, I mean_"

"I'm ready to listen to the question that was delayed." Al is serious.

"That's sir, about what you're offering me. How to comment Father _"

Uhhuukkk ... Uhhuukkk ... Uhhuukkk ...

Whether it's a habit or just a coincidence, if you feel surprised Al will definitely choke.

"Pak Al why Sir ? I'm not done talking about choking so."

"It's okay, just move on." The answer began to calm down.

"I mean, did your wife approve that I became Nindya's foster mother ?"

"So that's what you wanted to ask for ?"

"Yes sir, because I have never met your wife. So I'm afraid that he doesn't agree with Mr. Al's decision."

Al stood up and took a sitting position that had been facing each other separately by a table, now right next to Anita.

'What ! What is this, why is Mr Al even approaching like this ?' Comment Anita's heart was afraid of being mixed.

Especially when Al started acting. He put his right hand on Anita's shoulder. He pulled his body closer, there was no longer even a distance between them.

Although Mr. Al's treatment is softer, it still makes the heart feel turned back and forth.

"Do I look old and no longer fit to approach a woman ?" Al whispers that not only make Tata shocked, but also goosebumps all over my hair.

"No, no sir." Nervous speech.

"Tomorrow you'll also know who and where Mama Nindya is." Replied Al had still not let go of the hug on anita's shoulder.

"Away from the hospital, we stopped by for a while, so that you also understand who and in her mother Nindya." Answer again.

To date, it remains an unanswered puzzle for Anita. Al is not only handsome, he also has a charm that is not owned by others.

"I accompanied Nindya first sir." He tried to avoid.

However, when Tata began to stand upright, Al pulled back his hand, making his tiny body plunged into Alfatih's arms.

Aarrggghh ...

He silenced his own mouth, afraid that Nindya would wake up.

"It's not fair that I haven't asked you anything either." Bisik Al who is getting used to me and you.

"A, what's Mr ?"

His body temperature suddenly felt rising, his blood flow boiling, making the atmosphere even hotter cold.

"Have you ever been in a relationship with someone ?"

The question suddenly made Tata's heart explode from feeling humiliated.

He pushed strongly Al's body trying to break free.

"You think I'm a girl what ?" Sung at.

But Al's hand was stronger than the emotions he made.

"Hey, don't be so offended. I'm just asking, is it true that you got out of Mr. Arman's house because you prefer your lover ?"

'So that's what he meant, Bulek and Astrid's words were the trigger.' Comment on Anita's heart.

"It's none of your business, and I don't need to answer it."

This time Tata could completely break away, and lie on the bed accompanying Nindya who was still sound in her dreams.

Similarly to Al, he started to get tired and lay on the sofa. Sometimes he looked at the tiny body that turned his back on him.

'Was I too hard earlier, so it scared him ?' Thought in the heart.

Al dismissed his bad prejudices, and began to organize his heart and mind to dissolve in dreams.

However, just after he closed his eyes, there was a sound of bated crying, which was out of nowhere.

Deftly, Al stood watching the situation and circumstances. The hallway of the hospital was very quiet, only one of the two guard sisters was still awake.

Anita's body was still in the same position. But when Al tries to pull his shoulder slowly to make sure he's not the one crying, Tata holds her own body.

"Hey, are you the one crying ?" Whispers watered.

"I'm sorry if what I'm asking, really hurt your heart." Say again.

"That's it sir, leave me alone. Go back to the couch and get to bed, it's too late." Anita answered still.

Instead of leaving immediately, Al instead pulled a chair for him to sit on, right beside the bed, behind Tata's body that was still lying sideways.

"I'll stay here, wait for you to calm down."

Seeing Al's treatment, Tata immediately got out of his bed.

"The father who made me unsettled and uncomfortable took care of Nindya." He said as it passed.

He took his sling bag and the dirty clothes he had put in the paper bag.

"Where are you going ?"

"I'd better go home, sir." Pamphitt.

Al prevents her, she hugs Tata's tiny body from behind before reaching the doorstep.

"I'm sorry, I just want to know. But seeing you this angry, I realized I was wrong." Bisik Al who really feel the vibration of his breath.

I don't know what he's going to say, his lips are weak and unable to say anything more. Al's charms crippled his heart. Until he collapsed and returned to Nindya's embrace.

The awkwardness came back to haunt the two. Especially Anita, only this time her heart felt trembling by a man.

He himself did not know what this was called. Clearly, in a state of indecision, he felt there was calmness there.
