RUMI: The Love of a Paralyzed Man

ME WHO?

Rumi just silently stared at Ethan who was still asleep with a lot of medical equipment connected to his body. Seeing Ethan's condition now, Rumi's memory is fixed on a dream that often approached him for seven years. A dream that always feels real.

The pain, even Rumi could still feel very clearly when the mimli came. But unfortunately Rumi did not even remember who he was before he lost his memory. And the voice of the man in the dream....

"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!

His voice resembled that of Arkan, the annoying young man who was always looking face to face in front of Papi Juna. Ruby said, Rumi and Arkan used to be close friends during High School. But Rumi doesn't feel that he's close to Arkan. Rumi was upset and agitated whenever she had to come face to face or interact with Arkan. Not knowing what the problem is, Rumi clearly hates Arkan.

Chequek.

The door of the treatment room opened from the outside and immediately the sound of Ruby and Vivian chatting.

Rumi remained in his original position, and did not shift at all, as if he did not care about the arrival of Ruby and Vivian.

"Ethan's awake?" Ruby asks to the point as she approaches Ethan's nurse bed. But Ruby's husband is still asleep and there seems to be no sign of wanting to wake up.

"Do you think Ethan will remember who did this to him?" Ruby's question Rumi answered with a question as well.

"Of course." Ruby sniffed both of her shoulders.

"You used to remember nothing when you woke up from a coma. I hope Ethan doesn't have to go through the same thing" Ruby muttered, staring at Ethan.

"Rumi, are you awake?" Mami Lily immediately hugged Rumi tightly after the only son in Attala's family woke up from a coma.

"Whose rumi?" Rumi asked as she let go of Mami Lily's embrace. Looks like Rumi feels awkward being hugged by Mami Lily.

"That's your name. You remember, right?" Mami Lily's face began to show concern.

"My name's Rumi? Then who are you? And where am I now?" Cecar Rumi thronging on Mami Lily.

"It's Mommy, Rumi!" Mami Lily began to tear up because of the princess who did not even recognize her anymore. The middle-aged woman grabbed her phone and was seen contacting someone.

"Ruby! Come here with your Papa!" Mami Lily said at times across the phone.

"Rumi's up, Mi?"

"Yes, already. But he's..." Mami Lily looked at Rumi who was staring at her surroundings in confusion. Like someone in a foreign place.

"He's why, Mi?"

"Hurry over here and you'll see for yourself" Mami Lily replied in a sad tone.

"Alright, Ruby and Papi are there now."

"Sorry," Rumi looked at Mami Lily like a stranger.

"Can I have a drink?" Rumi asked again with the same look.

Mami Lily wiped her tears and immediately got a glass of water for Rumi.

"What's been going on. And why..." Rumi pointed towards her feet that were wrapped in bandages and casts.

"You had an accident, Rumi. Then you're in a coma for ten days." .

"Do you really not remember what happened to you before, Rumi?" Ask Mami Lily hoping.

Of course Mami Lily still hopes that Ethan does not make Rumi like this like everyone else. And the only key to all of that was Rumi's testimony. But now Rumi doesn't even remember anything. Even her own name Rumi also does not remember.

"I won't ask if I remember" replied Rumi whose speech was really stiff. The young man tried to move his legs, but failed.

"Rumi!" Mami Lily immediately prevented and held Rumi from forcing her to move her legs.

"My feet why?" Tanya Rumi urged an answer.

"Your knee cannot be saved. So-" Mami Lily's aurmata is back. The middle-aged woman had suddenly already hugged Rumi.

"I'm paralyzed?" Guess Rumi who immediately understood the direction of Mami Lily's conversation.

"Don't give up or despair, Rumi! There will definitely be a miracle someday," comforted Mami Lily who still has not let go of her embrace on Rumi. While Rumi was just silent and his body was also sculpted.

The sound of the treatment room door opening from the outside, broke the silence between Mami Lily and Rumi.

"Rumi!" Papi Juna immediately rushed in and hugged the son. The two eyes of Rumi's bladder papi immediately look teary.

"Sorry!" Rumi let go of Papi Juna's embrace stiffly.

"Who are you two?" Rumi asked again staring alternately towards Papi Juna and Ruby.

"I'm Ruby" replied Ruby pointing towards herself.

"And this is papi. You remember, right?" Continue Ruby again who has changed to point towards Papi Juna. Rumi shook her head confidently and of course it immediately made Ruby and Papi Juna surprised.

"Rumi doesn't even remember her own name" Lily told Papi Juna and Ruby.

"Imust be!" Papi Juna said in disbelief. The middle-aged man immediately grabbed onto both of Rumi's shoulders.

"You remember Papi, don't you, Rumi?" Papi Juna shook Rumi's body which only shook his head.

"You remember what happened to you before you went into a coma? You remember all of us! You must remember!"

"I can't remember!" Rumi answered while shouting.

"I don't remember anything and I don't know any of you!" Connect Rumi again still with a high tone.

"I who? You're who? What happened to me before the coma. I don't remember the way you are!" Firmly Rumi was once again starting to get out of control.

"Ruby! Call the doctor!"

"Vivian!"

Rumi's call to Vivian unfolds Ruby's daydream about the events of seven years ago when Rumi wakes up from a coma and remembers nothing about herself or the people around her. Rumi completely turned into a stranger after that. It took months before Rumi was finally able to accept her paralyzed condition and memory loss.

"You want to go home now?" Vivian asked as she approached Rumi.

"You're the one who came home with Ruby! I'll keep Ethan here" replied Rumi, who had expelled Vivian and Ruby.

"No!" Sergey Ruby fast.

"I'm not going anywhere until Ethan wakes up!" Ruby looked firmly at Rumi.

"Bas stubborn!" Rumi grumbled as she clucked repeatedly.

"So?" Vivian stared alternately at Ruby and Rumi.

"You go home alone with the driver! I will be here accompanying this stubborn miss!" Rumi finally answered. Vivian nodded obediently.

"What time are you going to be home?" Vivian asked again before she said goodbye to Rumi and Ruby.

"My luck! I'll knock on your door if you're still sleeping when I get home!" Threaten Rumi to Vivian.

"I won't sleep until you get home. So you don't have to hurt your hand" Vivian replied bravely.

"Whatever!"

"Go home and don't need any more lectures!" Rumi flicked her hand towards Vivian who was just sniffing her shoulders.

"Miss Ruby, I'll go home first" said Vivian to Ruby who had been sitting next to Ethan's treatment bed.

"Yes, please! And please stop calling me Miss!" Answer Ruby and give a message to Vivian.

"Yes, sorry-"

"I'm sorry, Vian! Go home!" Get rid of Rumi again. Vivian answered nothing and walked out of the treatment room.

"No crap, no pleasantries! You are not polite!" Grumpy Rumi after Vivian left.
