Painting Images With Light
The Part 57
Gripiness.
That was all that Bagio could remember, as he pushed Sarimunah's father away from her, along with two Hansip men, who captured Sarimunah's father, and held him on the floor.
Shouts for the sake of hysterical screams, breaking up, making a scene, until Bagio could not sort out anymore, about what was being said by the people around him.
The glass was still deeply embedded in the stomach of Bagio, who had now begun to shed a lot of blood, and soaked his shirt and trousers.
Bagio tried to pluck the broken glass from his stomach, but the pain was unbearable, until Bagio undoes his intention.
And not just because of the pain alone, which makes Bagio not release the broken glass from his stomach.
But also because of Citra, which forbids Bagio to do that.
The image with his face that was deathly pale, seemed to be trying hard to keep looking calm, as he said to Bagio,
"You can't pull it out yourself! It will be fatal later! Can you still stand? We need to get to the hospital now!"
Kartono also looked no less panicked, when approaching Bagio, so he seemed to be crying, when he saw the amount of blood of Bagio, which flowed out from between the broken glass.
"Mas! Please take care of Bagio! Try to keep him conscious! I'll go get my car!"
After Citra finished saying the message to Kartono, Citra was then seen leaving immediately, while running.
"Baggio! Hold briefly! Wait for the image to return! We'll go to the puskesmas!" said Kartono, who stood up and slightly bowed, while holding both shoulders of Bagio who was still sitting in the chair.
"Justice! ... B*ngsat! ... Your demon!" Kartono still took the time to curse the father of Sarimunah.
Kartono even kicked Sarimunah's father several times, whose hands were tied to raffia's rope, and would be taken away from it, by two Hansip who held him.
"Prophey, Kartono! Don't be a vigilante! He'll be taken to the police station. Later, he will definitely get the punishment he deserves," said Chairman RW, sounding trying to calm Kartono.
"What about Bagio?" asked the RW Chairman, looking at Bagio, by linking his eyebrows together, to form deep creases on his forehead.
"His girlfriend just went to get her car. Let's hope we're not too late, to take him for treatment" Kartono said, in a trembling voice.
"Can you handle it yourself? I will accompany the Hansip, to escort Sarimunah's father to the police station....
... The head of RT ... You see for yourself! He was busy taking care of his wife who fell unconscious" RW Chairman said.
"Yes ... Maybe we can take care of Bagio. I will ask for help from other residents, if we can not make Bagio get into the car" said Kartono.
The panic in that place was quite overwhelming.
One reason, because Sarimunah's father, who despite being bound and dragged by force, but he still rampaged.
And so did the mother of Sarimunah, accompanied by Sarimunah, who continued to cry hysterically, forcing the Hansip to release her husband.
Some residents who were there who were elderly, and maybe because they were too surprised by the incident, then fell unconscious, to participate busy other residents, to take care of them.
Not much different from the situation, the wife of Chairman RT who fell unconscious, because seeing blood in the stomach of Bagio, only kept her husband busy, to try to resuscitate him again.
Plus, with the sound of crying from children who may be frightened, because they see the unpleasant incident.
For a few moments later, Citra then looks back there, and approached Bagio accompanied by Kartono, saying, saying,
"Come, Mas! Help me get Bagio to my car! ... Bagio! Can you walk alone?"
Bagio nodded slowly, then tried to stand up.
And it seems, Bagio probably will not be able to walk, because to stand alone, the pain in his stomach has become so.
However, Bagio does not want to complain much, because it may only make others more troubled, to take care of it.
While being swept by Kartono and Citra, from his left and right, Bagio forced himself, so that he could go to Citra's car.
As Bagio moved his legs, the blood that flowed out of his wound became increasingly heavy, until it dripped onto the ground.
Bagio almost lost his consciousness, as he tried to get into Citra's car, and sat in it, while still being helped by the image and Kartono.
In a hurry, the image entered his car, and sat behind the wheel.
Likewise with Kartono, who will also take along Bagio, who was seen getting into the car in a hurry, then sat in the passenger seat next to Citra.
"Where is the nearest hospital?" tanya Citra, while starting to spur her car, out of the house page of Chairman RT.
"There's no hospital near here! We'll go to the puskesmas! I'll show you the direction!" kartono Suhut.
"Hold, Bagio! We'll get you some help soon!" citra.
Bagio did not reply, and just remained silent, trying to keep his consciousness, so that he would not fall unconscious there.
But apparently, even though Bagio had tried to keep him conscious, but still, he seemed to be asleep, until he did not realize what happened next.
Bagio only realized, when he was lying on a bed.
That awareness of Bagio, however, did not seem to last long, as he again felt like a very sleepy person, and then remembered nothing more.
***
I don't know how long Bagio was unconscious.
When Bagio opened his eyes, he appeared to have been in the hospital, with an infusion tube attached to the back of one of his hands.
On Bagio's face, it also felt like there was something there, which was transverse between his nose and upper lip, and the foreign body, blowing a cold wind into his nostrils.
"Baggio!" said Citra who looked jolted, when she saw Bagio who had opened his eyes.
The image that was sitting next to the bed where Bagio lay, then immediately stood up and kissed Bagio's forehead gently.
"Thank's goodness! ... You are aware," Citra said, with a big smile, even from her face, it still looks as if she is exhausted.
"I thought I was going to lose you" Citra said again, with the corner of her eyes beginning to get wet with her tears.
"Don't cry...! I'm fine," said Bagio, slowly.
The image then bent back, and gave a sweet kiss on Bagio's lips, for a while.
"What's going on?" ask Bagio.
"You were unconscious from yesterday. The wound in your stomach is quite severe, and you have an infection. You also lost a lot of blood....
... Then, the puskesmas also do not have the equipment, and sufficient ability, to overcome it. So you were rushed to a hospital in the city" Citra said.
"Eh ...? Are we in town now?" ask Bagio, who is still confused.
"Yes" replied Citra.
"Then, what about Kartono?" ask Bagio, again.
"He's coming here. But he was taken to Dorm, to clean himself up there" Citra replied.
"Hana ... Uh! What about my schedule?" ask Bagio, panic.
"Huuffft...!" The image of a rough grunt. "You're hurt, how can you work?"
"You don't have to think about anything first. Just rest! So that you can really recover," continued Citra again, while rubbing the head of Bagio.
"But contract—" Bagio could not continue his sentence, because of the Image that interrupted his words.
"Bagio! ... That's enough! ... Nothing will happen with your job. Hana can handle all your work and contracts....
... You don't have to worry about that. Do you care more about your job than I do about your situation?"
Bagio could not say anything more, after hearing the words from the Image, until he finally could only be silent, for a while.
"I'm sorry, which has made you anxious" said Bagio, slowly.
"Huuufft...!" Again, Citra seemed to snort violently, then said in a foreign language, saying,
"Nevermind!"
"Ugh ...?" Bagio did not understand what Citra meant.
"Easy ... There is no need to talk about it anymore," Citra said, as if to explain, about what the intention was.
The image then came back closer to Bagio, and kissed him, until a fake cough sound, heard there, stopped the activities of Bagio and Citra, who were making out.
"Gethem! ... Ehhem!"
Kartono, who smiled widely, was seen already in the room, and stood at the foot of the treatment bed, where Bagio lay.
