"Mas, who's sick?" Nurmala Sari came with a medical examination kit.
"Let's go in, Mala. He's in my room."
"Room...?" Dahi Nurmala.
"Yes." Yeah." Kaysan walked ahead of Nurmala, despite knowing where Kaysan's room was, Nurmala simply nodded.
Inside Kaysan's room, there was still Juwita Ningrat accompanying Rinjani. The owner of those eyes is still closed.
"Nurmala, you've finally come." Juwita Ningrat stood up to Nurmala who looked surprised to see a girl lying on a bed kaysan with a clothes that muddy red soil. A stark contrast to Kaysan's white sheets.
"Mother..." Nurmala Sari greeted Juwita Ningrat and bowed.
"Take a look at this girl, it's been an hour she's been unconscious" said Juwita, who was taken by Nurmala.
Nurmala hurriedly took her equipment. Checking Rinjani's pulse and eyelids. Check Rinjani's body temperature and check for other physical conditions.
Finishing the examination, Nurmala looked at Kaysan with question marks.
"How's Nur, how's he doing?" Juwita Ningrat was already impatient, whereas Kaysan was just silent in silence. Observe Rinjani lovingly.
"It looks like this girl is in severe shock plus the state of the body that is limp." explained Nurmala while noting the prescription of the drug, "Redeem this medicine to the pharmacy and buy this girl a sanitary pad."
"Kay, buy this for Rinjani before she wakes up there's a cure and a pad." Juwita received a piece of paper that Nurmala had written and handed it to Kaysan.
Kaysan did not say a word, he came out in a hurry.
Now in the room there are only Juwita Ningrat, Nurmala Sari and Rinjani. The three women who meant to Kaysan, Nurmala is part of his past story, Nurmala is a young doctor who trusted the family of Sultan Agung Adiguna Pangarep to entrust the health of his family.
After dupus hope to propose Nurmala Sari to be a daughter-in-law in the family Adiguna Pangarep. Raden Ayu Nurmala Sari Tirtodiningratan is now single after five years of dating Kaysan. He was five years adrift of Kaysan.
Although their arranged relationship failed, Kaysan and Nurmala Sari still remain good friends.
"Mother, may Mala ask?" Juwita and Nurmala sat on the sofa in Kaysan's room.
Juwita Ningrat smiled, she knew what Nurmala Sari meant.
"The girl was named Rinjani, Mother knew him in the gayam coral market. His mother just died."
"How can Kaysan be with her Mother?" Nurmala.
"Because they've been together, Nurmala. Rinjani is a good girl who has bad luck. That girl who makes Kaysan often tired now, Mother is happy. Kaysan could open his heart again. If Kaysan gets married. I hope you can get Legowo too. Mother knows there's nothing wrong with your relationship with Kaysan. Mommy hope you understand what you don't explain." Juwita Ningrat grasps the hand of Nurmala Sari. [legowo: sincere ]
Nurmala Sari half-smiled, "She still looks young, Mother. How about Kaysan mas, he looks more like a sister to Kaysan mas."
"Either what was in the girl, Mother did not know. If he recovers, you'll know what made Kaysan smile." Juwita Ningrat stroked Nurmala's hair, "Take Kaysan to be happy."
Nurmala nodded, from the look of her face looks like a lack of sugar. Nurmala Sari is restless.
"Alright, may Rinjani get well soon. Mother, Nurmala still has a scheduled visit to the hospital. If later Rinjani is aware, please suggest to maintain diet and lifestyle. Nurmala was afraid that the dysmenorrhea she thought would affect her reproductive health." Nurmala smiled wryly.
"Thank you Nurmala, Mother can't take you to the front." Juwita stroked Nurmala's hair as she endured it and bowed respectfully.
"Be careful with ayu."
Nurmala nodded, tidied up her luggage and walked out of Kaysan's room.
In the car park, he passed Kaysan who had returned from the pharmacy.
"Mala..." Kaysan.
"Yes, what's wrong?" ask Nurmala.
"Is Rinjani conscious?" Nurmala smiled, "If you are not conscious, you can give artificial breath." Tempta Nurmala who responded with the round eyes of Kaysan.
"Don't talk about Nurmala! I'm guarding him."
Nurmala let out a long sigh, "Why didn't you take care of me like you're looking after Rinjani now?"
"Nurmala, stop!" Kaysan had already sharpened his eyes.
In the room he found Rinjani still closed.
"Mother, why hasn't Jani regained consciousness?" Kaysan checked Rinjani's temperature.
"Let him rest, Kay. Mother had to go back to the room to look for Rinjani's change of clothes. Mother stay, remember don't do anything fatal." Juwita Ningrat's warning made Kaysan nod his head.
"Mother, does Jani need to be taken to the hospital?"
"No need, Kay. Nurmala was advised just to maintain diet and lifestyle."
"Good Mother. Thank you for taking care of Rinjani."
After Juwita Ningrat left the room, now the two of them remained.
Kaysan sat at the side of the bed, facing Rinjani with both hands clasped together, "I want to ask my mother for her blessing through my prayer. Wake up, we'll be together tonight to send Do'a for mom. Wake up my little girl, take me with you."

I heard all the talk of the two of them, the Queen Mother and the woman that Mala called by my lover.
What does it mean that she's Nurmala Sari, my ex-lover. The more I hear their talk the more I don't want to wake up. Even Nurmala Sari's words were like mocking me. About my reproductive organs that often have problems during menstruation. I know a 'son' in a kingdom is a dream to continue the successor to the throne. Then what if I am troubled, what if I cannot give Kaysan a descendant.
I closed my eyes in fear, until I found Kaysan's hand clutching mine. His words frightened me even more, what if Kaysan's wish to be with me was a mistake and I would only embarrass him before the King's Father who had given him permission to approach an ordinary girl, a gambler's child.
I have to be firm with this relationship. I opened my eyes slowly, the light of the lamp blinding my eyes. My head is dizzy, my eyes are focussing.
"Jani, Jani's conscious." Kaysan seemed to have a glimmer of hope.
"Yes..."
"Lay down, don't force it." I pulled out my hand that was still held by Kaysan.
"Mas, take Rinjani home." I did not want to look into those sparkling eyes.
"No I'll allow it before you're completely healed."
"Mas, I need some time alone" I said trying to find an excuse.
"Rinjani!" His tone of voice changed to a tone of decisiveness.
"Mas, I'm just trying to trouble you and Ibun..."
The shrill voice made me take my eyes off, "Cah ayu, already conscious. Let's drink first." Juwita Ningrat flicked her finger driving Kaysan away from the side of the bed.
I who felt bad, staggered to my own body. "Sorry mother, Rinjani is just a hassle Mother continues." I said while looking down to hold back the dizziness while respecting her.
"Easy-after... Rinjani eat first and take your medicine." I see in the hands of the Queen Mother is available a plate of chicken porridge.
"You choose, Mother or Kaysan who bribes you?" The choice made me more confused.
I looked at Kaysan and Mother.
"Rinjani can eat her own mother." I said taking a safe position.
Juwita Ningrat chuckled, "Kay, shame her Kay."
Why do I look like a kid who's working with two adults.
"Alright, Mother gives you time. But remember Kay, after finishing feeding Rinjani, let her rest, dim your ego to be alone." Juwita Ningrat handed her plate to Kaysan's hand.
I saw that Kaysan was very happy, he nodded, "Like this is enough Mother" he said.
"Well, push the fire button if Kaysan starts playing with fire." Juwita pointed at a red button with a fire logo lined with other buttons.
