Neighbor Husband

Episode 45 - The Test of Love

"Can't be Satria, this violates the patient's rights. Although you know him well but all patient data remains confidential. Unless he has permission," Lambert refused when Satria asked for Luke's medical records.

"If I say I'm her future husband, can't I?" bejuk Satria's.

Doctor Lambert kept on shaking his head, "you're not a doctor, surely you understand the code of conduct, right?" doctor Lambert.

Of course Satria understands, but all the rules and codes of conduct defeat Luke's curiosity, what really happened to Luke.

Failing to persuade Lambert's doctor, Satria is now in a standoff with Yunita's doctor. But the answers of Obstetrics & Gynaecology specialists are not much different from the psychiatric specialist.

"If you're so close to her, why can't you ask her directly?" said doctor Yunita.

Satria just fell silent, not wrong indeed what the beautiful doctor said.

I don't know when Satria started feeling for Luke. It started from the matchmaking that their parents did, but clearly, the more often he met the introverted girl, the stronger his heart was to have her immediately.

But the path he took was not easy. Lukella is not a woman who opens up easily, other than her introverted nature, her bitter past makes the woman lock the door of her heart tightly.

All the way Satria does, great patience is needed. But who doesn't have a heartache? For so long he kept his heart in the land of people, it was the bitter news that he first heard.

"I still can't believe Luke is that woman" Satria murmured. He tried to contact Luke's mother again, after several times his telepin was not lifted.

*****

Light rain accompanied by occasional thunderstorms, caused Luke, Flora and other mourners to fill the hospital's mortuary terrace.

Shilla's body is ready to be brought back to his hometown for burial. Some of the family members who had come to pick me up could not hold back their tears.

Luke's body began to tremble. His head is a little dizzy. He clasped Flora's arm tightly.

"Luke, are you okay? Did we just break through this rain?" whispered Flora.

Luke shook his head, "I'm not okay. But we can't go home either. Do you want to be a roasted skull because it was struck by lightning?" whispered Luke anyway.

Actually he could have come to the Yunita doctor's room at this time. But if he does, then there is a possibility that it will be seen by Satria and his friends who come to worship.

"To the canteen, yuk. Rest there until the weather is quite settled" whispered Flora.

Luke nodded, it seemed like the best solution for now. Dede, who was about twenty steps away from them, watched the hijab girl closely.

"Since he's been here without a baby, it doesn't seem like it's his baby. But what's the reason he didn't return to his six-month contract?" inner Dede.

"Luke, you still don't look good. Are you sure you want to go back to living in a rented house again?" ask Flora.

"Yes. I gotta try, Flo. How long should I keep avoiding? Life has to go on, right?" said Luke.

Flora looked at her best friend's face with teary eyes. The girl always looked tough and fierce. His heart is very fragile. He also made a thick wall around him to protect himself.

"It looks like the rain is starting to stop. Let's just walk yuk," Flora asked.

"Kuy," said Luke.

The two friends walked side by side to the motorcycle parking lot, which was quite far from the cafeteria where they were now. Luke's body felt increasingly weak, his vision began to blur.

Bruk!

"Luke!" exclaim Flora panic.

Right now they were behind a fairly deserted pharmaceutical warehouse. Not many people pass there.

"Luke, are you okay?" this time it was a male voice.

"Dede? What's he doing here? Stalking us?" thought Flora.

Some medics who happened to pass by, came near them. The hijab girl is still unconscious. Dede and paramedics tried to lift Luke off the floor.

The deg! Suddenly Dede's heart beat fast when the clothes worn by Luke was scattered in the abdomen. The man's eyes caught an incision wound below the navel. The wounds are very familiar to women.

A few seconds later, Dede tried to shift his mind. Luke's safety is more important now. He also helped medical paramedics to correct Luke's position on the patient's bed.

"Don't approach my woman" cried someone. Everyone there was surprised.

"Bring this woman to the IGD, I'll follow" Satria told paramedics.

"Okay, doctor."

Flora and Dede are astonished, they just find out if Satria is a doctor, more precisely a psychiatrist.

"Does he still defend Luke as he is today, if he knows Luke's true state?" thought Dede in the heart.
