S2: Scary Beautiful Dreams

A man sleeping on the floor moved restlessly with the sweat on his temple. His breath was breathless as if he was running from someone's pursuit.

"Huh huh." Finally the man was able to open his eyes after a long while he ran in his dream realm.

His hand was raised to hold his aching head as if it was about to break. He also wiped the sweat on his forehead.

"Aarrgghh!" He shouted loudly. Sometimes he wants to die at a time like this. But he remembered with someone he had hurt more than this.

That's the reason why he's still holding on.

His phone rang indicating if there was an incoming call. "Who are these gini nights?" tanyakanya.

Even so, the man still picked up and raised his call.

"Hello Doctor Axel. Sorry to interrupt, but now there's an emergency patient. Can you get to the hospital soon?"  say the guy across there.

His expertise in the medical field, especially the things he specializes in more specifically, makes him trusted and famous to be the best doctor.

"I'm going there now!" 

Without thinking any more, Axel immediately took the snelly and also changed his pants before then he left for the hospital.

The close distance makes him lucky because it does not have to be long to get there.

"Here Doc!!" Just arrived, someone called him. Axel rushed there.

When he was in the doorway and he saw the patient using oxygen made him think of someone.

Bryonna. Although the girl was always on his mind, but this time it was bad. Because in this condition is always a bad shadow of the girl who came to inhibit Axel to handle his patients.

His hands began to tremble, with vision beginning to turn yellow. He held his head before someone's screams resuscitated him.

"Ax!!!" 

Axel realized and immediately handled the patient.

**** 

"Why is it always rich if there are emergency patients?" ask someone who was yelling at him. After treating the patient, they agreed to drink coffee in the park.

"Remember," Axel replied.

He did not want the person to know about his past and trauma. Let him feel this for himself as a form of his revenge.

"Do you want me to know a psychologist?" ask the woman.

"Mel, don't overdo it. I'm okay" Axel said.

"What's wrong? I see with my own eyes how you respond if there is a rich patient," he asked.

The girl named Mela Putri explained what she had always seen.

"Biarin. Ignore it, I also do not mind living rich gini," replied Axel as if.

Mela can no longer help Axel's stubbornness. Actually, he had offered Axel a psychologist contact several times and it seemed that the man did not meet him at all.

"It's up to you." Mela took her coffee back.

One year or so he knew Axel and the man has never been touched to this day. According to him, Axel was not an arrogant person, just that the man was too secretive.

"Gue go back first" said Axel. It just so happened that this was not her time to be in the hospital. 

So he's going back to his house. And he'll come if the hospital guy asks for it. Unless he has to be in the hospital, he will always be there.

"Hmm, thank you for coming" said Mela. The girl also stands kit to appreciate Axel who is going to go from there.

"Semisterius is lo" he said after Axel actually left.

**** 

Axel went back to his house. The breath always accompanies him when he opens the door. 

Despite working in a crowded hospital, Axel still feels lonely.

"I think he's still here" Axel said. 

I don't know why lately he's always been upset with his feelings. Ciya's departure has been several years. But I think the girl is still there. 

Not wanting to think about it anymore, Axel took off his snelly and returned to the place where he slept earlier.

The king size bed was there and it looked very comfortable. But Axel prefers to sleep on the floor with only a blanket.

Several times he had tried to sleep normally on the bed and what he got was an uncomfortable feeling in his heart.

He feels guilty when he sleeps in bed. He should feel sick, not comfortable.

"Gue hope everything passes quickly and God takes my life." He had long wanted to end his life. But he was re-awakened with his ignorance. 

How could he possibly just die while there was still the pain of a girl he had to pay for.

"I miss you" he suddenly roared. Axel misses his Ciya very much. He wants to meet the girl.

"How can I redeem everything, Ciya? How's it?" with tears that have flowed.

"If I could hurt myself. But it doesn't seem fair that I'm the only one physically sick" he continued.

"How much have I done with you? How much pain do you feel? Even the rich world doesn't care about me anymore, yeah. They all left me. Maybe if you're still around, you're the only one who's always loyal to me."

The man continued to cry as he fell asleep on the cold floor. He even hit his chest which felt tight.

It had been five years and he still could not forget how his Ciya had looked at him, how his Ciya had provided provisions for him. What he remembered most was when the girl drooped weakly in the hospital gurney with a paled face and an already unthrobbing pulse.

"Your face always comes in my dreams. But for five years you never came with your smile. You always come with a pale face without a smile that scares me, Yes." 

That was the reason why he always woke up at night with sweat on his temples as well as gasping breath. Even some nights he is also sometimes always awake until the morning. 

He only dared to look at the smiling portrait of Ciya. She hoped that smile would come in her dreams.

"If only there was a second chance. I will not waste you. I won't," he said.

Long enough he cried until finally Axel entered into a dream with the marks of tears that dry on his cheeks.

His breathing began to be regular though he was sometimes shaken and went back to sleep.

The long night every night that Axel felt was really scary.
