Niki For Nata

Section 32. Ought to.

Happy Reading's!

"How many times have you said you can't date. You must be able to pass the High School with the highest grade. You have to win the Olympics. So that you will enter a foreign university. With scholarship again. Understand you?"

Papa Tirta nagged Nata outside the hospital. Right in the hospital yard until everyone who passed by in front of the hospital saw the father and son arguing. Not arguing, but Papa Tirta who is more domineering. He gave Nata no chance to answer.

Niki, who heard all that, smiled. The fact that Nata is not unwilling to date. But because Nata is not allowed by the father to date.

Dictated his son to follow everything he wanted. As the only child of Lydia's mother, Niki felt grateful. Got a parent who gave him the freedom to do what he wanted without having to be forced to do what he didn't want to even be able to.

There is also a sense of compassion in Niki's heart to Nata. He was treated like a worker, forced to do what he did not want. Which he does not master. Which he can't. Nata was asked to fight, even though it was not his field.

"I'm disappointed with papa" Nata said in a desperate tone. His face was perfect. Until this moment, there was no point in him saying what he wanted. Free. Because it won't be heard.

With regular steps, Nata leaves papa Tirta who is still nagging. He could see, the gazes of the people he passed by could not really be translated with words. I don't know what they think of Nata now.

No matter what, Nata ignored those gazes and left them with all his frustration towards Papa Tirta.

While papa Tirta, has not realized that the person he omeli has left him.

"From papa talking at length you don't de-"

Papa Tirta realized that Nata was no longer there. I don't know where he went. And why he could be lost.

"Aaaah, shit! Nata is outrageous. He never appreciated his parents. Where the hell is he?" gerutu papa Tirta's.

While Niki, he had already rushed towards his room after hearing all the sentences that papa Tirta had thrown at Nata.

...\=\=\=ooo0ooo\=\=\=\=...

Mr. Andrew, he's out of the doctor's office. Just new. He took his steps slowly. It was still clear in his memory about what the doctor told him about what Niki had experienced.

"Sir Andrew!" exclamation Nata. They almost collided. Because he was busy with his thoughts so that Mr. Andrew did not pay attention to his path.

"Where are Sandra and Salim?" ask Andrew sir. He wanted to distract Nata from asking about Niki. Mr. Andrew could already guess with certainty, what Nata would ask him.

"I don't know, sir. I have not met them. Maybe they are looking for food right now," Nata replied hesitantly. He tried to guess where Sandra and Salim had gone.

"Then, help me to take care of Niki. I will be looking for both kids. We're going back. Niki's health is much more important than the Olympics. Anyway, we're just waiting for the results of the next announcement."

"Good, sir." Nata nodded. No more coming to his mind to ask about Niki's health condition.

Gegas Nata ran away leaving Mr. Andrew who was still sculpting. He wanted to know if the girl named Niki was dead. Is he okay. Nata really wants to know the truth. Curious it.

The sound of the door being opened from the outside can be heard clearly. Pretend he knows nothing. He closed his eyes. Play the skit nicely. He wanted to know who went into his room. Was it Andrew or Nata. Or even Sandra and Salim.

The slow and sure step slowly began to approach the patient bed occupied by Niki. Niki tried to sharpen his sense of hearing.

"Have he not been awake all this time? Why is he really?" the man muttered in his heart. Her in-laws looked straight ahead, the woman lying still closing her eyes.

"Niki, wake you up. Once you close your eyes. Aren't you tired? Don't you want to go home and see your parents?" ask Nata slowly. Afraid that if she makes a strong voice, Niki will wake up.

Doesn't he want Niki to wake up? Why are we even afraid now? I don't know. Everything that Nata reflexes do.

"Niki, wakeup. If you wake up, we'll be back. I hope, I hope you're okay. I hope there's no serious problem." Still muttering Nata in the heart. Praying for the goodness of Niki.

Niki, he wants to open his eyes. I wonder what Nata did. But he was afraid of being discovered, pretending to be asleep. Pretend that he is still unconscious.

Gently, Niki felt the shifting hospital blanket covering her body. He realized that the blanket he had forgotten to wear. Pray in your heart for Nata to be unsuspecting.

"Why did the blanket change? The feeling wasn't like this" Nata murmured. Niki can hear very well. Niki was getting nervous.

There was a knock on the door from outside.

"Suster!" greet Nata to the nurse who entered Niki's room. Walking up to Niki's bed with the map he held.

"I'm sorry, I'll check it out for a second, yes" said the nurse politely.

Nata nodded in response. Even reflexively, he gave her space - stepped a little, so that the nurse could freely check on Niki.

Nata gave the nurse time and space. He prefers silence. If there is a chance, he intends to ask Niki's condition. I hope it can. That's Nata's prayer in the heart.

Looking at the nurse who was done with her task, Nata immediately asked. He did not want to lose this golden opportunity.

"How's my friend, sus?" ask Nata politely.

"Everything's fine. When your friend wakes up, he's on the bus home. Remember, take plenty of rest and don't get too tired. If you are tired, rest. Please remind your friend."

"Yes, sus." Nata replied while nodding.

"It should, according to the doctor's explanation yesterday, he should have woken up. Rope I don't know, I can't guess or make sure when it will roar. Obviously, you have to be patient. Trying to say something that could restore his consciousness."

The nurse said at length. While Nata, the mangosteen heard the nurse's explanation. Trying to understand what he is listening to.

"Then, excuse me "

"Yes, sus. Many thanks. "
