RUMI: The Love of a Paralyzed Man

PAST TIMES

Vivian arrived at Attala's residence at three in the afternoon. The woman was just about to get out of the car, when she accidentally saw Kak Alsya who is the older sister of Rumi and Ruby was having a fight with a man on the porch. Vivian did not immediately get out of the car and chose to wait for a while, before then the man left Kak Alsya who was crying on the terrace.

Who is that guy? Brother Alsya's husband?

Vivian had only seen it this once. Because Vivian Kak Alsya knows everywhere just with Sunny and her husband never seen in this house. It's strange!

After the man who had a fight with Alsya left, Vivian just got out of the car. Brother Alsya looks shocked when he sees Vivian and the woman did not say a word, then went straight into the house leaving Vivian who actually does not want to kepo let alone interfere with other people's affairs.

Vivian sniffed her shoulders, and was just about to get inside the house, as her phone rang loudly.

"Hello!" Welcome Vivian to pick up the phone from the priority number on her phone. Who else if not Rumi?

"Home home yet? Or are you crawling first?"

"I just got home and just wanted to get in the front door, and then you called" Vivian had not finished her sentence when Rumi had cut in quickly.

"No need to tell in such detail. I'm just asking if you're home or not?"

"Yes already!" Vivian replied short, solid and clear. There were no questions or words from Rumi anymore and the phone suddenly disconnected.

All right, whatever!

Vivian continued to enter the house in a quiet condition. It seems like Bu Lily and Mr. Juna are oergi, then Kak Alsya who was crying earlier might be locked in the room

"Vivian!" Call Brother Alsya from upstairs. Rumi's distilled sister was indeed her room was on top just like halnyq Ruby.

"Yes, Brother!"

"Well a minute!" The word of Brother Alsya that immediately made Vivian rush up to the second floor. Vivian went straight to Kak Alsya's room which was opposite Ruby's room. Despite only being in this house for a week, Vivian had gone outside the head of all the rooms in this mansion, because Rumi told her to memorize everything.

"What's up, brother?" Asked Vivian who was just a beara in the doorway of Kak Alsya's room. The face of the mother of one child looks damp and there is Sunny who seems to be waking up and now the five-year-old boy is coloring.

"You heard what?" Asked Kak Alsya staring fully inquisitively at Vivian.

"Hear what?" Vivian asked confusedly.

"My quarrel with Erick earlier," Brother Alsya's voice whispered a little this time.

"Nothing, Brother!" Vivian said seriously.

"I didn't hear anything" continued Vivian whose face still looked solemn. But Vivian did not hear anything and Vivian did not intend to eavesdrop on a fight that was not her business.

Brother Alsya was seen sighing, before continuing to speak,

"Don't tell anyone about Erick coming home and about our fight earlier" Alsya told Vivian who nodded.

"Yes, Brother!"

"Where's rumi?" Brother Alsya changed to ask the whereabouts of Rumi.

"Still in the hospital accompanying Ruby to look after Ethan. So I was told to go home first" Vivian explained to Ruby and Rumi's eldest brother.

"You have no meaningful work. Can you take care of Sunny for a second? My head hurts a little and I'm going to sleep for a while" Alsya asked Vivian.

"Good, Brother! Vian will take care of Sunny," Vivian replied quickly.

Vivian immediately approached Sunny, talked briefly to the five-year-old girl, then helped clean up the coloring equipment and they both left the room after saying goodbye to Kak Alsya. Vivian invites Sunny to color downstairs and wait for Rumi to come home.

"Of!" Sunny exclaimed when she saw the new Mami Lily coming. The five-year-old boy jumped in with Mami Lily.

"Hi, Honey! Which mama?" Mami Lily asked after greeting the granddaughter.

"Sir Alsya is not feeling well, Mom! So she took a short break and left Sunny to me, "not Sunny, let Vivian explain to Mami Lily.

"Rumi where is it? Not home from the store?" Ask Mommy Lily again. Usually Rumi will be angry if the nurse instead becomes a baby sitter for Sunny or other residents of the house. The man has been grumpy ever since he lost his memory.

"so." Mami Lily nodded.

"You've talked to him and tried to persuade him, Vi?" Ask Mami Lily next which made Vivian's heart a little turbulent.

"Be-yet, ma'am," Vivian replied holding back something that felt like it was squeezing her chest.

"You and Rumi seem to get along very quickly."

"Can you persuade her to get Rumi married?"

"We mean, Rumi once said that for a lifetime she would not marry because maybe she felt insecure about her current condition. That's not a barrier."

"We still hope that Rumi will change her decision and she will open her heart to a girl."

"Please persuade Rumi, yes, Vivian!"

"But Vivian will immediately persuade and talk to Rumi, Mom," Vivian continued after the woman swallowed a bitter wedge in her throat. The feeling of tightness is still squeezing Vivian's chest.

Vivian doesn't know why either.

Isn't everything about her and Rumi long over?

"I'm going to move out of town after graduation, because Papa's moving into office." Said Vivian one day to Rumi after the graduation exam was over. Just waiting for the announcement and the school farewell.

"Can't you just stay in this town, Vi?" Rumi asked as she clasped Vivian's hand tightly.

"I don't have any other family in town, Rumi! I have to go with my mom and dad wherever they go unless I'm married" Vivian didn't continue as she stared into Rumi's unusual gaze.

"We get married then," Rumi suddenly who of course immediately made Vivian shocked.

"Papa wouldn't agree. I haven't even graduated High School yet" Vivian replied unconvinced.

"Later I'll talk to your papa," Rumi brought her face closer to Vivian who was just pecking.

"I'll ask you carefully," continued Rumi again whose face was getting closer to Vivian's face. Rumi's hand had also been gently holding the girl's chin in front of her, making Vivian painstakingly swallow her saliva which suddenly dried up.

"You don't mind, do you?" Rumi seemed to be asking Vivian for permission.

"What objection?" Vivian's voice sounded raucous. The girl is groggy now.

"It."

Vivian closed her eyes as she felt the softness of Rumi's lips that had landed on her lips.

"Vivian!" Mami Lily's reprimands disperse Vivian's daydreams about her past with Rumi.

Ah, but it's just the past and it's all long over. Now Vivian and Rumi are just two strangers who happen to meet as employers and nurses.

"Yes, Mom!" Reply Vivian stammered.

"Please persuade Rumi, yes!" Pinta Mami Lily who seemed to have placed great hopes on Vivian

"Yes, Mom! Vivian will persuade and talk to Rumi later."
