Papi Sick
Mia rushed to the hospital when the ambulance had brought her Papi first. Mia brought all the needs of Papi while there. Mami brought the papers for free of hospital fees. Since the Mia family fell Poor, they had to use BPJS in order to get treatment for free in the hospital.
Papi Mia suffers from Brain Cancer, Mia is very worried if her Papi can not be saved because the pain has been very long. Mia still remember when they were rich first, Papi often sought treatment abroad so that the disease quickly healed. But Papi's disease has not been cured until now. There was only a reduced pain in Papi's head.
Papi often complains when sick and makes Mami confused. Papi used to take expensive drugs from famous doctors and his pain was slightly reduced. As long as Mia's family fell into poverty, Papi had no more stock of medicine and made Papi wail in pain every night.

Mia headed to the hospital not far from her home. The trip to the hospital takes only 10 minutes. Mia rode her motorcycle at a speed of 80 km/h. Mia hoped to be able to arrive sooner if she could be faster.
" S.. ! Papi's still on IGD ?" mia asked her mother when she arrived at the hospital.
" Still, soon to be put in the room" said Mami worried.
Mia sat in the waiting chair in front of the IGD room. Mami accompanies Papi inside while talking to the doctor about Mami's disease. Mia just peeked out from behind the hospital's glass door while sitting waiting for Papi to be brought into her room.
After a while, Papi was taken to his room, Mami and Mia followed behind. Papi looks thinner and paler.
" Did Papi get well?" thought Mia was worried.
Papi was taken to the rose room, a special room for brain cancer patients. There is only one mattress available on it which shows that Papi does not share a room with the others.
" Is Papi going to be in surgery ?" ask Mia to Mami.
" Wait a decision from Papi, the doctor said the possibility of Papi can live 30%. Papi's cancer is late stage" Mami said as she shed her tears.
Mia could not hold back her tears, she went into the bathroom and cried. Mia doesn't want Papi to see her crying, Mia wants to look tough even though Papi can't be saved anymore.

Aunty and Lili came after a while. Anxiety for the state of Papi Mia is seen on the face of Aunt and Lili. Aunt Husband and Lili's husband are outside because Papi Mia's room doesn't fit them all.
Mia comes out of the bathroom and sees Auntie and Lili are already near Papi. Aunty looked towards Lili with a disappointed look and Lili just focused on looking towards the already extremely thin Papi Mia.
" Is there hope?" ask Auntie to Mommy.
" Hopefully it can, just don't know yet." Mommy said while sobbing.
Papi just stayed in his bed watching his family grieve knowing his condition. Mami continues to be on the right side of Papi and Aunt on the left.
" Have been treated abroad why can recur? ask Lili later.
" The medicine from there has run out, so it hurts again" said Mia.
All speechless to hear Mia's explanation, the family knows that the Mia family was still able to buy expensive drugs though. But now they have to downsize in life due to the economic crisis in his family.
Mia came out of Papi's room leaving her family there. Mia contacted Alan who was on duty at her office.
" Ma ! Papi is sick " Said Mia while crying.
" Final stage brain cancer" Mia kept crying while calling Alan, Mia did not know where to complain.
" What can you help?" ask Alan.
" There is currently no, but later do not know mas" said Mia sadly.
" You're patient, baby" Alan said.
It wasn't long before Mia turned off her phone. Mia thinks for herself how she can make money to buy medicine for Papi. Mia is also worried about the bills this month that she has not paid.
" There are problems that make me dizzy" muttered Mia while leaning against the wall of the front room Papi.

Aunty and Lili came out of Papi's room, Aunt saw Mia holding HP and standing on the wall near the door.
" What are you again?" tanya Aunty was upset.
" Friendly phone" said Mia.
" Which friend?" Ask Aunt again.
" Yes, my friend Nte, I want to see Papi first" said Mia cut off their conversation.
" You still love your Papi?" ask Auntie's upset.
" Aunty why are you angry? " said Mia and kept passing into her Papa's room.
Aunty looks upset with Mia's attitude who never wants to hear advice. Aunty and Lili leave the hospital where Papi Mia is being treated.

In the evening Mia returns home, Papi is taken care of by Mami and Mia with Egi at home. Mia felt at home alone, Mia intends to go out hanging out with her friends but her intentions are undone considering Papi is still in the hospital and Mia does not want the neighbors to consider her happy to see her Papi sick.
Mia was just lying in the room with HP attached to her hand as usual. Mia opened social media just to talk about the lives of others.
Get well, Papi, we love you.
Mia wrote the status of the time as a picture of her heart. Mia hopes Papi gets well soon and goes home to them. Papi's increasingly severe condition makes Mia feel that Papi's life is not long. Mia is growing more and more in her grief when she learns that her ex-husband's debt has not paid off.
" What's Alan again?" thought Mia.
Mia wants to contact Alan but is afraid that Alan is with his wife. Mia actually wants to ask for money from Alan but Mia does not dare to reveal it.
" I don't want Alan to think I'm a matre girl" murmured Mia.
Mia undoes her intention to contact Alan. Mia is waiting for the right time to ask Alan for money. Mia then changed her nightgown because it was late. Tomorrow morning Mia had to go to the hospital to change the care of Papi. Mia was wearing a purple nightgown and was ready to head to her dreamland
