Miss Kissable & Mr. Strawberry

Koma

Almost 24 hours after the blood transfusion procedure, there has been no progress from Kayla's condition. Finally the doctor took follow-up to confirm his condition. A medical examination procedure in the form of a CT scan is performed at this time, to find out if there is an injury in his body, also to detect other abnormalities. CT scan is a large circular scanner machine that is quite entered by adults in a lying position.

After about an hour, the diagnosis came out. Nadia and Tio are asked to sit face to face with the Doctor who handles Kayla. The doctor then presented two sheets of Kayla's CT scan to them to be seen. The first CT scan showed Kayla's internal organs from head to neck, the second showed her neck to lower chest. The doctor also explained the diagnosis.

"In addition to losing a lot of blood, the previous patient also had hit hard objects right ma'am."

"Yes Doc, on his shoulder." Sahut Nadia was bitter, while recalling the police explanation regarding what happened to Kayla during her time at the kidnapper's headquarters. As indicated by Alex to the police.

"The collision of a sharp hard object resulted in injury to the spine to the neck of the patient. We did a CT scan twice to confirm the diagnosis. You can see and put these two pictures together, it's the details of the head." The doctor explains while pointing at several points in the CT scan image. "Injury in the spine to the neck also affects one of the patient's brain nerves. That's what's been causing the patient to be unconscious until now."

Nadia and Tio listened carefully to the doctor's explanation, with feelings of sadness and anxiety. "So how's it going Doc?" Ask Tio.

"We will give injections as a form of stimulation to the nerves, in the next few hours God willing there will be a development of the patient's condition."

Nadia and Tio were a little calm hearing it. They offered prayers and hopes for Kayla's safety.

Several hours passed, Nadia and other family members including Kayla's cousin Riana, waiting for Kayla's condition to develop restlessly. Because there has been no response from Kayla's body since the injection, the doctor again examined Kayla. As the Doctor exited the room where Kayla was being treated, Nadia and the others were on standby waiting for the good news from the Doctor.

"Where's Doc?" Ask Tio.

"There has been no progress. In one hour we will check back, Sister Ika will remain vigilant here and continue to monitor the patient's condition. May the patient's body respond quickly. Excuse me first."

Nadia slipped, she felt discouraged and her fear grew bigger. His crying makes Arsya can not bear not to cry too, Arsya increasingly feel guilty.

"Nad, you don't think bad, we pray for Kayla's recovery. We're all here hoping Kayla's gonna make it, we all love Kayla." Entertain Tio.

"Yes Nad, you're her mom. You must be more upbeat and optimistic, a good shadow then your child will definitely be fine. A mother's prayer is a blessing to her child, your prayer must be granted to God. Don't be so scared!" Vina's sister-in-law also calmed down.

"Still Ma'am." said Nadia to Vina, Vina also hugged her husband's sister warmly.

Riana gestures to her papa seeing Arsya cry in secret. The clueless father then approached Arsya and patted her on the shoulder. Arsya hastily wiped away her tears then raised her head.

"Boy must be strong. You may regret it, but do not curse yourself too much. What happened to your brother was an accident, not your fault. You even had to be a hero for your brother, you dare to fight the bad guys when you are alone and their bodies are bigger than you. Until you're attacked with them, you're still trying. So, just kill yourself enough! You have done your duty as a brother, now you must encourage the struggle of your brother, do'ain him. And let the doctor do his job, we all hope Kayla's recovery." Om Iwan smiled warmly, encouraging Arsya.

Arsya also began to feel relieved after being entertained by Om Iwan. "Thank you Om."

Night changed day, Nadia and her family's waiting will be good news Kayla's condition development is still ongoing. Every one hour, the doctor checked Kayla's condition, from yesterday since being given a response stimulant injection until now in the afternoon. But there has been no relief yet.

Nadia was accompanied by Vanessa sitting on a long sofa in Kayla's treatment room. The two share their feelings and strengthen each other, while looking at their beloved girl who is lying in a hospital bed and has made no progress on her condition. As a fellow mother, Vanessa understands Nadia's sadness and worries. Vanessa, who already thinks Kayla is like her own daughter, also feels the same anxiety, given the chronology of the accident that hit the poor girl two days ago. Hearing the story from Alex alone Vanessa is not careless, let alone imagine the incident occurred in plain sight, any mother would not be able to see her daughter had a tragic accident.

"Kayla is a great boy Nad, she is very brave and sincere. I also really regret this accident, honestly I'm embarrassed but I also really love Kayla. I can understand how you feel Nad." Vanessa said as she embraced Nadia.

"I'm not guilty of anyone Ma'am, which happened just as Lily was in an accident. I'm just afraid something bad happened to Lily." Nadia tried hard and did not cry anymore, even though this situation was difficult for her.

"You think good, don't think bad. We're husnuzzhon same God yes, I'm sure Kayla can certainly get through all this, she's a strong boy."

Nadia turned to look at Vanessa's face, then nodded while smiling faintly. "Alex how's Mama? He also did bad things right, he was persecuted and tortured. I'm afraid it's Mommy."

Vanessa pouted her bitter lips, "I'm scared of Nad too. Thank God Alex is better now. He has a lot of injuries on his body but he will recover quickly. Only his legs should be treated further, because of injury again. I could've calmed down, but Alex didn't."

"I mean Ma'am?" nadia asked, not understanding Vanessa's last sentence.

"I can calm down to see Alex's condition is now more meningan, but Alex is not calm because think of Kayla's condition."

Nadia fell silent, she turned her eyes away from Vanessa, because she felt uncomfortable with Vanessa's statement. Vanessa, who understands Nadia's actions, elaborates on her words.

"Don't misunderstand Nad, I understand their situation. They have no relationship anymore, but yesterday they were both held in the same place. They both witnessed what was experienced by each other, any feeling that appeared in their hearts.Obviously the worry was natural Nad. Neither Alex nor Kayla could see each other's suffering, and they both wanted to protect each other. That's not wrong, is it?"

"I know what Vanessa's mom meant. I was just a little keinget about the past aja Ma'am, somehow the feeling ngeganjel it always appears sometimes, sorry I Mbak."

"Don't apologize Nad, I'm ashamed of you for the past. Anywhere I don't want us to be sorry for each other because of problems in the past, even though mistakes are on my side. I should've apologized."

"I'm sincere that Ma'am, just. I don't know why sometimes my keinget and my feelings become sensitive. I also love Alex, I'm not guilty of him if he's worried about Lily's situation. I understand."

Vanessa pulled the corner of her lips, smiling wryly. "I'm here for you, you're strong Nad. Kayla must be cured."

Nadia nodded, "Thank you Ma'am."

The doctor and a nurse entered the room. After an hour ago, the doctor checked Kayla's condition, and now the doctor is doing the same thing again. But it still has no visible development. Kayla's body did not respond at all after being given the injection last night. The doctor even gave Kayla an injection again this morning, in order to improve her condition, but there were no results. Finally with a heavy heart, about five in the afternoon the doctor gave the news to the Kayla family.

"Where's Doc?" Ask Nadia for the umpteenth time.

The doctor gave a faint snort, the look on his face showed a heavy feeling of having to give unwanted news to the family of the patient who had been waiting for the opposite news. Before saying anything, the Doctor saw one by one the faces of the Kayla family who were gathered in this room. Nadia is still accompanied by Vanessa, Iwan her brother with his son and wife were there. Of course not to miss Tio and Arsya who are always ready to guard Kayla while in the hospital.

"We've tried our best as we can sir, ma'am. But there is still no response from the patient's body."

"Dok, please be clear!" Urge Tio to be restless.

"So gini sir, the injury to the patient's brain nerves caused by the impact of a hard object on his shoulder that makes the patient unconscious for a long time. Generally after undergoing a blood transfusion the patient will be aware of at least in less than 6 hours. But for Kayla's sister, even though it was more than 12 hours after the injection, her body did not respond at all."

Nadia, Tio, and the others put on a serious face that was very obvious to their anxiety. The doctor then clarified the diagnosis.

"I'm sorry, I mean, the patient went into a coma."

Duaaaarr........

"YOUROMA?!"

"A..what..? A coma?"

They were all bitterly listening to it. Although not experts in matters related to medical, little do they know what is meant by a coma in a patient. Coma is the deepest level when a person is unconscious. People who are in a coma cannot respond to their environment at all. In contrast to fainting that only occurs temporarily, coma sufferers experience a decrease in consciousness for a long time.

"Yes. We're moving Kayla's sister to the ICU to get more intensive care. We will also continue to monitor his condition and keep trying our best."

Nadia squeezed, she was so devastated to hear bad news from the Doctor about her daughter. She cried again while hugging her husband. "Yes Allah.. Lily darling.."

"Please Nad, we do'ain Kayla are both yes." said Tio Parau.

"How long will Doc Kayla be in a coma?" Ask Om Iwan.

"We can't be sure. If the patient's body responds faster, then he will recover in the near future. But if on the contrary, the recovery period will also be long. We just pray, sir."

"Dok, please do my best for my brother so he recovers quickly." Please Arsya lirih.

"Good Doc." Ivan answered.

Several nurses were asked to transfer Kayla to the ICU, to make it easier for medical personnel to provide the best care for Kayla, as well as for her condition to be monitored intensively. Previously Kayla had been fitted with an infusion hose since she was taken to the operating room, then a breathing apparatus was also installed for her to maintain her breathing rate since she experienced shortness of breath yesterday. After the completion of the blood transfusion, in addition to the infusion hose that only serves to enter nutrients and drugs, the hose was also functioned to include food given the condition of Kayla who is now in a coma. In addition, the doctor will also install a heart rate monitor and urine catheter for him.

As a mother, Nadia's heart was broken seeing her daughter's miserable condition. Lying helplessly in a hospital bed with various medical equipment as a support for his life. Nadia really doesn't want to be this weak, but here she is. Kayla was his life, and seeing Kayla as helpless as if numb. In addition to Nadia, of course, her other family was sad to see Kayla's condition which turned out to be more worrying. Arman, who was originally due to be taken back to prison tonight to continue his sentence, was detained on the spot knowing his daughter's condition. Arman asked police for permission to allow him one day to accompany his comatose daughter, fortunately he was allowed.

How's Alex doing? Also Elfatt who previously regretted and regretted the accident that happened to Kayla?

With a heavy heart Vanessa had to tell the bad news to Alex and his papa, even though she did not want to see Alex sad about Kayla's condition, Alex still deserves to know about the condition of the girl. Vanessa walks into Alex's ward, she stops at the door. Looking inside, Alex was with his three friends and his future wife, Vanessa, stopped coming in. He chose to stand in a place watching his son from afar. Alex can already smile with the entertainment of his friends, Vanessa is not until the heart breaks their moment by giving bad news.

"Nit." Vanessa gasped to realize someone was reprimanding her.

"Mas." Turns out it was Elfata, Papa Alex.

"Why be quiet? Come on in, don't you want to join me there to entertain Alex?" Elfatt.

Vanessa was silent, her gloomy look on her face made Elfatt realize that something was on his mind at the moment.

"What's up Nes?"

"Kayla, Mum."

Degg

Elfatt's starting to fret, "Kayla? What's the matter with Kayla?"

Vanessa swallows her saliva bitterly. "You were with Nadia, right, how was Kayla?" elfatt asked rather urgently.

"He's in a coma, Mas." Vanessa sobbed while covering her face.

"Well?!" Elfatt was shocked.

Vanessa sits in the waiting chair in front of Alex's room while trying to hold back her cries, Elfatt who feels hit by the reality of Kayla's condition and then settles down.

"Nes, are you serious? Kayla's in a coma?" elfatt asked, not ready to believe that fact.

"Yes Mas. I was there when the doctor declared Kayla in a coma." said Vanessa interrupted her stuffing.

Elfatt was stunned, he stuck a palm on his own forehead while thinking about the fate of the poor girl who had sacrificed her life to save him the other day.

"Where can.." he murmured faintly, but it could still be heard by Vanessa.

"Doctors said, the cause is due to brain nerve injury Mas. Alex said yesterday that Kayla's shoulder was hit by an iron ball and she was injured. It turns out that the same spine of his neck was injured, and it had an effect on his brain as well" Vanessa blazed.

"Not because of blood loss?"

"That might as well be one of the triggers, I don't really understand either, which obviously he's now in a coma."

Due to the impact of a sharp weapon in the form of an iron ball belonging to King, Kayla's condition suffered a major decline. After successfully passing the blood transfusion procedure Kayla was fine. If only he had been hurt by losing a lot of blood. But unfortunately before getting a shot that hit his stomach, Kayla was first attacked with an iron ball. Which turns out the influence of the attack is more dangerous than a bullet that had lodged in his stomach.

Vicky was on the spot, he initially wanted to get out of Alex's room to buy a drink, but when he got to the door he saw both of Alex's parents talking seriously and in a soft tone. Vicky became curious and stopped continuing his steps, and he heard Vanessa and Elfatt talk about Kayla's condition.

"The vick!" exclaimed Bima, making Vicky gasp.

Vicky turned to face his friends, his facial expression now inversely proportional to his expression before opening the door and saying he wanted to buy a drink. Sandi who initially intended to punish Vicky even stopped him from doing, seeing the change of the face of his friend.

"Why the hell bro?" ask Sandi wonder.

"In front there is a bokap as nyokap lu Al" said Vicky made his friends frown not understand.

"Trus?" alex is confused.

"Gue heard them talking. about-.."

"Ck, ah you nguping?!" sela Sandi.

"I don't want to forget I won't know Kayla's condition right now." said Vicky rather upset.

"I mean you?" ask Alex impatiently.

"Aunty Vanessa's line said, if..." Vicky paused his sentence, he glanced one by one the faces of his friends including Feli who was also there.

"Vick?!" reprimand Alex impatiently.

"Kayla comma Al."

Duaarr...........

"WHAT?!"

"Vick, you're kidding unethical!" sergeant Bima while hitting Vicky's arm.

"Gue seriously, just Aunt Vanessa herself said that. Aunt Vanessa left Kayla's room, right Al?"

"Yes. But... How is it possible?" said Feli did not expect the reality he just heard.

"Vick?!" yell at Alex again. Very clear anxiety and shock from the look on his face.

"Yes Al, I just heard yourself saying that. Kayla's in a coma."

Duaarr........

Alex leaned back limp in his bed, his heartbeat stopped for a few seconds and then came back beating with a stifling thump.
