RUMI: The Love of a Paralyzed Man

YOU RECALL?

Rumi stared at the sofa where Ruby had fallen asleep, then changed to Ethan whose eyes were still closed. Keep alternating staring at the couple whose relationship is opposed by Papi Juna.

Rumi also has no idea why Papi Juna always shows his hatred for Ethan in front of everyone, but still keeping the photos of Ethan in Rumi's room and looking at him secretly while pacing tears behind everyone.

Maybe Papi Juna thinks Rumi doesn't know. But actually Rumi knows all the secrets of his birth papi. Papi Juna actually loves Ethan, but I don't know what makes him hate Ethan.

Rumi looked back at Ethan's face as the wildness of the dream flashed through his mind.

"I've asked Ruby well for you! But you let your sister get into a relationship with the nerd!"

Bugh!

"You have broken your promise!"

Bugh!

Bugh!

The pounding continued to land on Rumi's face which no longer had any strength. Fresh blood poured from some parts of Rumi's body that was now battered.

"Taste this, Rumi!"

Bugh!

Bugh!

Bugh!

Rumi could even clearly feel the pain from the blow of the damned man. But who exactly was the person who had beaten up Rumi? Her face could not be seen clearly in the dimness of the night. Only the voice of that person was now ringing in Rumi's head. And that sound is like Arkan's.

But maybe?

"Yahoo!" Ethan's coughing voice breaks Rumi's daydream.

Rumi did not move from her place and just stared at Ethan who had started to squirm. It seems like the annoying Doctor who always punches one soul with Rumi has awoken from a coma.

"Yahoo!" Ethan coughed again.

"Just take your breath aid off!" Rumi finally couldn't bear to not open the sound. Rumi had also been in Ethan's position and felt wearing the annoying breathing apparatus. Even though it was many years ago, Rumi still remembered the taste. And Rumi hates him.

Ethan is seen raising his hand and removing the breathing apparatus from his nose and mouth. The young doctor breathed in repeatedly and threw a strange gaze towards Rumi. All right, what's Rumi's fault now?

"What are you doing here, Rumi?" Ethan asked who was about to get up, but again the casts on both feet made Ethan unable to move much.

Rumi, who was feeling pity, finally moved her wheelchair and helped raise the treatment bed on the head so that Ethan could half lie down.

"Both of your legs are digips!" Rumi tells Ethan's condition to Ethan himself.

"Suck!" Um Ethan's upset. Rumi just rolled her eyeballs.

Isn't it usual for others to be shocked and shocked when they know that both legs are being digips? Then why is Ethan cursing? You weird doctor!

"What are you doing here?" Ethan asked Rumi once more.

"Pregnate you! What do you think I'm doing? To be a doctor to you? You're the doctor not me!" Rumi's mouth was sniffling while returning to roll her eyeballs.

"Ruby and the others where?" Ethan asks Rumi again.

Rumi did not answer Ethan's last question because the young doctor seemed to have found an answer when the two neutrals looked at Ruby who was sleeping on the sofa.

"He hasn't moved from your side since you got into the hospital to this day" Rumi told Ethan.

"How long have I been unconscious?" Ethan asked, the two eyebrows are already linked to each other. It looks like Ethan didn't realize he was in a coma for days. But at least Ethan doesn't lose his memory like Rumi used to when he woke up from a coma doesn't even remember his own name.

"Four days," replied Rumi who immediately made Ethan widen both his eyes.

"By the way, do you remember who did this to you?" Ask Rumi full of questions. Rumi was only curious about what people who had persecuted Ethan the same as people who had also persecuted him, because if judging from the injuries on Ethan's body, the condition was almost the same as what happened to Rumi.

"Arkan." Answer Ethan succinctly.

"That made you sit there!" Ethan continues again as he sniffs his chin towards Rumi's wheelchair.

"I guessed it!" Cetus Rumi was full of emotions. Since the beginning Rumi had been suspicious and did not like the prospective ghost of Papi Juna's choice. Feeling Rumi has a point.

"Do you remember what happened seven years ago?" Ethan asked expectantly.

"Still random." Rumi answered while glaring. But that's how it is. The only thing Rumi remembers from her past is the night she was persecuted by Arkan. Maybe because the shadow continues to be present in Rumi's dream, so Rumi remembered. The rest of Rumi was unable to remember anything about his past.

"I just remember I was beaten barbarically by a masked man who was also wearing a black hoodie jacket. I kept remembering it because it was always present in my dreams for the past seven years. Like a prolonged trauma," Rumi's story to Ethan immediately makes Ethan's face turn disappointed.

What does Ethan expect when Rumi's memory returns?

"You know where my phone is, Mi?" Ethan asks suddenly to Rumi who is still daydreaming.

Just woke up from a coma already looking for a cell phone. Want to call who? You important pretentious!

"Who are you calling?" Rumi finally thrusts her phone at Ethan.

"I don't remember his contact number. I wanted to call Marcell and I was pretty sure that you didn't have his contact number, either" Ethan said, which led Rumi to pull back the phone and not to tip it at Ethan.

Marcell's?

Rumi, as she had heard her name, was mentioned by Vivian when she told her how she could get a job as a nurse.

"Doctor Marcell found me a job. He's a friend of Doctor Ethan."

"Maybe Vian has. Isn't he Marcell's friend too?" Cetus Rumi finally remembered who Marcell was.

"Vian who?" Ethan asked confusedly.

All righty!

Is this man amnesia now?

"Vivian, the nurse and my assistant who Ruby said you were looking for me" explained Rumi who immediately made Ethan's lips round.

Oh, it's not amnesia.

"Have you met him?" Ethan asked again who seemed to be starting to be curious. Fuck up!

"Almost every hour. He's my assistant now" explained Rumi once again.

"Oh, yes! I forget. I've been sleeping for four days" Ethan patted his own forehead. Of course, it immediately makes Rumi laugh because it seems Ethan forgot that his head is still bandaged, and he even hit him himself.

"Basic fool!" Rumi's ejek immediately makes Ethan frown. Just like Sunny when she's sulking.

"So, where's Vivian?" Ask Ethan next.

"At the cafeteria earlier," Rumi replied along with the door of the treatment room that was opened from outside. Aunty Ghea, Sasha, and Vivian had apparently returned from the cafeteria.
