Munding and Nurul stood beside a bed. The bed where Mr. Yai lay with his head almost entirely wrapped in bandages and his mouth was given an oxygen mask. An infusion hose is also seen stuck in his hand.
As Munding alleged, Ms Nyai had already followed her husband to RSUD Sukolilo. Nurul stood beside the bed and cried in Munding's arms. Munding just stared pusar towards Pak Yai who was still unconscious.
In addition to Pak Yai and Bu Nyai, there is one more person in RSUD who also waits for Mr. Yai. He was Abdul Razak, the village chief of Sumber Rejo, a close friend of Pak Yai. When Munding and Nurul came to the ICU, Mr. Razak asked for permission to go out, leaving the three men to accompany his best friend.
Nurul was still crying sobbing in Munding's arms. Ms. Nyai just glanced at her daughter and smiled. His daughter whom he knew had indeed long harbored a sense for his own adoptive brother, Munding.
“Nurul, here! Your father's critical period doctor said it was past. It was a minor operation and a suture was performed. Don't be sad, Nduk. We just wait for Mr. Siuman kok,” said Bu Nyai calm his daughter.
Nurul walked up to her mother, then she sat down next to her mother and hugged her. But Nurul's cries had already begun to subside. Munding looked towards Bu Nyai and gestured to ask for permission to come out for a while.
Munding searched around the ICU area but did not find Mr. Razak. He started walking towards the parking lot of the motorbike and saw Mr. Razak sitting on the sidewalk, by the side of the highway, a cigarette tucked in his hand.
Munding sat next to Mr. Razak. Mr. Razak brandished his pack of cigarettes to Munding and Munding took one. Munding tried to turn it on and then sucked it.
Uhuk uhukkkk uhukkkk
And Munding coughed. Mr. Razak laughed heartily at Munding.
“Hahahahahahahahahahah, I already know that you will cough Le, you are from 6th grade SD already follow Ahmad, if you dare to ngrokok, you must have been beaten using his rattan stick, he said,” said Mr. Razak while laughing.
Munding was still bending over holding his chest and throat which felt sore. His nostrils also felt a bit sore, like something was passing by just there.
Moments later, Munding tried to suck it for the second time and now it feels not so painful as the first one.
“Where's fun? Do not tell Ahmad that I teach you yes Le,” continued Mr. Razak with a smile.
“Pak Dhe, who attacked Pak Yai?” ask Munding short.
“You said what Le?” answer Mr. Razak.
“Pak Dhe, Munding it is already big, Munding knows what happened the same Mr. Yai, so it is better Mr. Dhe just frankly to Munding,” said Munding.
Mr. Razak took a breath, “Ahmad was just in the wrong place and the wrong time. Last afternoon the hordes of market thugs Sukolilo was drinking in front of the market.”
“It just so happened that Ahmad passed by because he wanted to pick up his wife. Maybe because he saw her wearing peci and sarong, they were angry or feeling insinuated, suddenly one of them hit Ahmad's head from behind with a bottle of drink.”
“Ahmad then fell, fortunately he was helped by a group of motorcycle taxi drivers who denied there continue to be rushed to RSUD.”
“Police has action Mr Dhe?” ask Munding quietly.
“Le, in our remote place, there is only one small police station with only a few officers. If indeed they are able to handle the horde, they have been snatched and not allowed to make residents restless in the market,” said Mr. Razak.
“Not to mention if you see the backing of the Saud.” muttered Mr. Razak slowly as if afraid of being heard by people.
“Pak Dhe also knows the case of Wage, your Father, he is a good and simple young man. Not strange, but fate says another,” continued Mr. Razak.
Munding was silent. Shortly thereafter he paid his respects to Mr. Razak and asked for permission to go inside. Arriving inside, Mr. Yai was not aware either. But because the critical condition has passed, the RSUD will move Pak Yai to the hospital room.
“Le, grab a blanket and a change of clothes for Father and Mother yes?” ms. Nyai told Munding.
“Iya Bu Nyai,” Munding replied.
The Munding walked out of the ICU. Seeing Munding walking out of the room, Nurul who was worried suddenly made a decision.
“Mother, Nurul come home Mas Munding yes, this is still wearing uniform. Mas Munding did not understand the clothes of Father Mother where. Is it Nurul who is ironing?” nurul.
“Yes already there, this you will invite Munding lunch. At home, I haven't cooked anything. Wrap up Mom too,” said Bu Nyai while giving a piece of money a hundred thousand to Nurul.
“Thank you Mom, Assalamualaikumm” Nurul kissed Mom's hand and quickly left the ICU room, running after Munding.
Munding was already riding on his motorbike and had already started his motorbike when suddenly Munding heard a screaming voice calling his name.
“Masssssss, Mas Mundinggggg.”
Munding turned his head back and saw Nurul who was running while panting towards Munding and waving his hands.
“Dek Nurul what?” ask Munding.
“You come home,” answered Nurul.
“Yang nemenin Whose mother?” ask Munding.
“Emang Mas Munding know where Mr Mother's clothes?” reply Nurul.
Munding was silent and swiftly Nurul naek on the motorbike and hugged Munding who was still dumbfounded.
