RUMI: The Love of a Paralyzed Man

WHO'S VIVIAN?

Rumi sat on her wheelchair and faced the window of the room as usual. Rumi does like to reflect on herself like this when she is not working. Not knowing what Rumi was thinking or Rumi trying to remember.

Chequek!

The sound of the room door being opened from the wild did not take Rumi's gaze away from the room window. The only domestic assistant in this house will indeed open the door to Rumi's room without knocking first.

Rumi asked for it, because Rumi felt lazy to say the word 'entrance' when someone knocked on the door of the room. According to Rumi it was just a waste of energy.

"Rumi!" It was Ruby's voice and not a housekeeper's.

Oh, apparently the twin brother but the opposite sex Rumi who went into the room. Ruby said she was going to pick up Rumi's new nurse, but how quickly did she come back? Where did Ruby pick you up? House front?

"What?" Rumi answered without turning the wheelchair.

"I want to introduce your new nurse, Vivian," said Ruby who finally inevitably made Rumi forced to turn the wheelchair. Rumi is not usually curious about the figure of her new nurse. But hearing Ruby mention Vivian's name, Rumi suddenly became curious.

Who is Vivian?

Did Rumi ever know a girl named Vivian?

"Vivian, this is Rumi" Ruby said, introducing Rumi to Vivian. Rumi could see, Vivian who immediately burst into shock and took one step back when she saw Rumi's face.

"Rumi," muttered Vivian slowly.

"Yes, that's my name" Rumi replied staring in full probing at Vivian. But Rumi did not know this girl at all.

"You-you"

"Crippled?" Vivian muttered again.

"Yes. Is it still unclear?" Rumi answered after hearing Vivian mutter.

"You've known Rumi before, Vi? Because Rumi lost her memory for seven years and she still has not found her memory until this second," explained Ruby who immediately made Vivian widen both her eyeballs. But a moment later Vivian shook her head and answered Ruby's question with a slight stammer.

"No-no"

"I didn't know Rumi before," replied Vivian who was still staring fixedly at Rumi's face.

"All right I'm just asking," Ruby said, commenting on a smile.

"She's a little cranky and grumpy, so I hope you can be patient with her."

"It doesn't need to be put in the heart of whatever you say" Ruby said, whispering to Vivian.

"Yes, I understand," Vivian replied nodding her head repeatedly.

"Can you talk about me when I'm not in front of you, Ruby!" Gertak Rumi while clucking.

"I was just telling Vivian about some gal Vivi needs to know," Ruby asked for an excuse.

Rumi runs her wheelchair closer towards Ruby and Vivian who are only a shoulder height of Ruby. Unlike most girls who have white skin, Vivian does have skin that tends to be dark. But the girl looks sweet with perfect holes in both cheeks as she smiles.

"So this?" Rumi stared lightly at Vivian who was still staring fixedly at Rumi.

"Yes, her name is Vivian" Ruby replied slightly explaining.

"Vian's calling?" Ask Rumi again.

"Vivi!" Vivian quickly corrected.

"Too market. Why not just Vian?" Tanya Rumi forced.

"Call Vivi, Mi! More feminine!" Sergeh Ruby glanced at Rumi.

"I want to call him Vian! Why are you the one who's setting the rules? Who will pay for it? You or me?" Cecar Rumi who has gone back to telling Ruby.

"Alright, whatever!" Decak Ruby with an annoyed tone.

"Can we go to the hospital now? I want to see Ethan as soon as possible" Rumi asks Ruby next.

"You don't want to interview Vivian first?" Ruby asked Rumi.

"Aren't you interviewing him on behalf of me?" Ask Rumi again who sounds even more annoying.

"Yes, okay! Let's go to the hospital now!" Ruby finally chose to give up. Ruby walked to the back of Rumi's wheelchair and prepared to push her.

"What are you doing? Why don't you have that new nurse push my wheelchair? Does he want to eat blind paychecks?" Cerocos Rumi again that immediately makes Vivian rush to replace Ruby to push the wheelchair Rumi.

"Push the right and don't let me down!" Said Rumi warning Vivian.

"Yes, Sir!" Reply Vivian obediently.

"What did you say just now?" Rumi pulled the brakes on her wheelchair, leaving Vivian shocked.

"What did you call me?" Rumi asked as she turned her head around and looked at Vivian.

"Sir. Is something wrong? Or should I call the young master?" Vivian asked confusedly.

"Call Rumi! R-U-M-I! Rumi!"'s!" Rumi was resolute while spelling out the letters in her own name.

"No need to wear frills sir or anything else!" Rumi said firmly to Vivian.

"You got it?" Ask Rumi to make sure.

"Yes, Sir-"

"Gee!" Vivian covered her mouth with a palm.

"Yes, Rumi," repeated Vivian who immediately made Rumi rotate when the eyes.

"Mi! You still want to continue your interview with Vivian, are we going to the hospital now?" Excited Ruby who has been waiting for the debate Rumi and Vivian who never finished.

"not me! This Vian who was a baffle and slow pushed my wheelchair," said Rumi giving an excuse that only made Vivian sigh.

The boss is always right and the nurse is always wrong. Just accept it, Vivian!

****

"Wear the towel!" Rumi said as Vivian was just about to light a hairdryer to dry Rumi's hair.

"Wear the hairdryer dry faster," Vivian gave an excuse.

"And faster to make my hair fall out. You want to make me bald, huh?" Tanya Rumi fiercely.

"All right! I'm going to put on a towel, "Vivian finally chose to give in and keep the hairdryer in her hand and then instead grabbed a towel to dry Rumi's hair.

"May I give you some advice?" Vivian opened the conversation again as her hands dried Rumi's hair.

"What advice? Want me to get a haircut?" Guess Rumi who seems to be very able to read Vivian's head.

How magical!

"You will look ten years younger if you trim your hair neatly this long," said Vivian who immediately made Rumi cluck.

"How old do you think I am?"

"Twenty-six," Vivian replied slightly off the mark.

"Loved ten years!"

"Seventeen years old," Vivian replied grimacingly.

"Didn't you pass SD?" Asked Rumi who had turned his head so that he could look closely at Vivian.

"Alright sixteen years old," Vivian chuckled and had already changed to grab a comb to comb Rumi's hair.

"Fifteen years to be exact! I'm twenty-five years old!" Rumi said firmly which again only made Vivian sigh.

"Alright, fifteen-year-old Rumi. You're handsome and ready to go to work now" Vivian reported, looking at Rumi's appearance in front of the mirror.

"Go get ready!" Tell Rumi still while staring at her own reflection in the mirror.

"Where are you ready?" Vivian asked confusedly.

"You'll come with me to the store from today. Ruby said you could also be my assistant at the store." Rumi replied firmly.

"Eeee, yes, anyway! I have experience as an admin for over a year" Vivian grimaced again.

"No need to show off and get ready! Just bring my breakfast to the room!" Rumi's orders were fierce while nagging at Vivian.

"All right!" Vivian just snorted and immediately exited Rumi's room to get ready.
