Deva is relentlessly pacing back and forth in front of the ICU. Soraya's mother was busy calming down Arum's crying aunt while Jacko and Richard, could only stand upright.
santoso's uncle and Nugraha's secretary Deni sat down with a sad face.They all gathered after news that Nugraha had a sudden cardiac arrest. when the heart stops beating suddenly. This condition causes the sufferer to lose consciousness and even stop breathing.
Zaki and several doctors are still handling Nugraha. trying their best to save his life.
aunt Arum hugged Soraya tightly.he looked very sad.
"Gisel hasn't come yet"
the wail to soraya.
"we pray that Nugraha is okay"
Soraya calms Arum.
Deva who looks very hit and too panicked with the condition Nugraha. feel guilty for staying away from his uncle, after his heart was injured. pacing back and forth with anxiety that can not be contained.
Richard approached Deva and held her shoulder. Deva stopped.stare at Richard.
"Dev, calm yourself. Come sit down"
Deva according. Richard took him to the bench and sat him down. Deva rubbed her face rough.The state looked chaotic.
"be patient Dev. We can only pray"
richard patted Deva on the back.
Nugraha has been suffering from heart disease for a long time.have been in and out of the hospital several times.His condition worsened in the past week.
ICU room door open. Zaki gets out of there.Everyone gets close to him.But Deva is just sitting on the bench.he's afraid of hearing the worst thing happen to Nugraha.
"how's my husband, doctor zaki?"
ask aunt Arum. pull up Zaki's white coat.
the look on Zaki's face was grim.Readily looking at Deva who was looking at him from her seat, staring directly at the bead of eyes full of anxiety waiting for the news of Nugraha.
Zaki turned his head to Aunt Arum in front of him, taking a breath of strength to give this news.
"i'm sorry aunt.we've tried our best, but uncle's gone"
"what?!" Arum nodded in disbelief at what Zaki said, "you're wrong Zaki! my husband is still there! his daughter is not here yet! make him wake up again"
yelling Arum.crying so badly. Soraya hugged him again tightly while crying. Arum thrashed not to be held.
"patience to mbak"
Soraya tried to calm Arum down.
she beat up Zaki for not being able to make her husband better. Zaki just let Arum beat himself up. Arum was devastated by the passing of her husband Nugraha until she sagged to the floor. Zaki and Santoso held onto the limp-drooping Arum.
Zaki called some nurses to give Arum some treatment.
deva's heart stopped. felt his world spinning.he threw his back into the wall behind him. his body drooped limp. still can't believe what Zaki said. this was the thing he was most afraid of hearing.
the world seemed to explode.a sense of regret crammed into his heart. Within four years, he and Gisel had wasted two precious lives.
Deva recalls her father.The father also declined his health due to Deva's departure.and now Nugraha's uncle left because he thought of her guilt.
Deva covered her face.was unable to hold back the crying that had been struggling to be ventilated.
he nodded slowly without being able to scream again. Richard holds his shoulder and feels Deva's sadness.Try to calm Deva who looks very hit.
Jacko immediately went with Zaki to take care of everything. In the workspace zaki, Jacko could not stand up. he collapsed on the chair. he did not want to show his weakness in front of everyone.
Zaki approached him. Zaki's face clouded.holding Jacko's shoulder. Jacko looked up at Zaki.
the two of them looked at each other and Jacko stood up. I don't know who started it, but now they both hug while crying.
"let's get him Jack"
whisper Zaki.
"yes, I'm just sad to see Deva, she's devastated"
said Jacko lirih.
let go of that hug and sit back.
wiping away her tears trying to push back.
"you must be strong. Deva needs you"
Zaki patted Jacko's shoulder.
Jacko only nodded.he knew, only he was accompanying Deva now.without the two uncles who had always been the frontline fortress for Deva.
"i'll take care of everything. You take care of the hospital"
jacko said to Zaki.
Zaki nodded steadily. Jacko goes outside the zaki workspace and meets Deni, Nugraha's secretary, to take care of Nugraha's funeral.
the sound of a galloping step filled the hospital hallway, a woman with long hair galloping towards the ICU room.
it stopped right in front of Deva, with its hunting breath panting. Deva opened her face slowly, looking up to see who was stopping in front of her.
staring at the large round eyes that had been soaked in tears.
"Devs"
lirih.
Deva was silent, not answering, just staring at the face in front of her.
"papa" he said softly as he pointed to the ICU room. "papa Dev. how?"
Deva was still silent.just looking at the face he had not seen for a long time.the face that had made his world ravaged.
"Gisel" Richad grabbed Gisel's hand. "unseen uncle"
Gisel was stunned. his heart seemed to stop. his eyes bulged.as hard as he rushed to see his papa from Paris to Indonesia, could not make his papa wait.
looking back at the ICU room with nanar. walked limped to the door. only tears that flooded like a stream.
trembling his body stepped into the room where Nugraha was lying stiff.staring at the lifeless old figure again.
papa who always forgave many of his mistakes. Papa who loved him unconditionally. Papa who guided him when learning to step up to life. is now silent does not move. that's because too much bear the burden of thought because of his actions.
Gisel could not get close and touched the lifeless old body, he fell to the floor, helplessly struggling.
Deva approached towards Gisel, holding his hand and pulling him up. Gisel looked into Deva's eyes. Deva just silently looked at those tear-filled wet eyes.take her to the Nugraha gurney.
"apologize to him"
said Deva flat.
Gisel stood with trembling knees.
"pa, Gisel came "
lirih.
grabbing an old hand that already feels cold. kiss his hand with wisdom. seemed not to want to take off the hand again.dyed long hand wrinkles that can not stroke his head again.
"why can't papa wait for Gisel just one more minute?"
Gisel stroked the cold cheeks of his papa.
"why know? Gisel ran off the road because it was jammed to get here" Gisel sobbed "gisel's feet hurt. bloody pa"
huu....
Gisel cried loudly.cannot resist the pain in his heart.hugging the body of his father who was just still not moving.
"papaaaaaaaa.. I am sorry Gisel paaaaa"
Gisel shook Nugraha's body, but the old body could not respond to him anymore.
deva's heart felt in the forcible snatch from where she saw it. Tears dripped without being prevented.
"papaaaa.. Gisel promises to be a good son paaaaa. forgive giseeeeelll. paaaaaaa"
Gisel roared with all his regrets.
Deva approached. grabbed Gisel's face down, hugged and shook Nugraha's body.
"already.it's been.."
Deva hugged Gisel.patted her back gently. Gisel hugged Deva tightly with a heart-wrenching cry.
Deva takes him out of the ICU room, letting the nurses take care of Nugraha's body.
taking Gisel to Arum's aunt as soon as they met, Gisel immediately rested at her mother's feet.
"mamaaaa. forgive Gisel maaaa"
"My daughter's gisel"
Arum grabs Gisel's body. hugging him tightly.s crying sobbing together. Arum stroked his daughter's hair fondly.
Deva went out of there unable to see her mother and daughter turning blue.sitting aloof in her room and shedding tears in silence.
he imagined when his father left him. breathed his last in his lap. asked him to be strong like a rock. asked him to be strong like a mountain. asked him to be patient and not go again.
Deva squeezed the handle of the chair he was sitting on. it felt like he was saving his heart to stay as before.as if closing the old wound do not let it spread out and spurt blood again.
he remembered the frightened woman opening her heart because of the wounds she had experienced.he understood why she shivered in fear of love, because the abandonment felt a lack and only God could heal.
"the maca.."
the whisper called the name, pecked it in the heart and locked it tightly.
