Scratches of Past Wounds

Stabbing words

The scorching sun had warmed up through the glass window of the room on the fifteenth floor. The brown eyelids were seen moving and a moment later began to open in the air . Several times the eyeball blinked to be able to adjust his vision with the light of the room .

" Hey... are you awake ? " The baritone voice from beside him surprised him.

The light nodded its head just assented. Light felt an incredible dizziness . But he still insisted on remembering what happened. And a moment later his big eyes again stared at Doni who turned out to have looked fresh after the bath. The light was still confused by what happened until Doni's voice was heard again.

" You fainted early this morning . Your doctor said you were mildly hypothermic and now you have a fever. " Doni sat beside the Light who was still lying down due to dizziness. The burly and warm hands of Doni clung to the forehead of Light. Making the Light misbehave.

" can you sit ? Breakfast to eat medicine. " The light has not yet opened its voice just answering with the movement of his body. Although the light dizzy tried to sit up, and finally she grimaced holding her head in pain.

" Let me help, here ! " Doni pulled the body of Light into his arms and leaned the head of Light on his shoulders. one hand Doni held the Light body with one more hand piled up several pillows so that Light could lie with his head higher.

The act of Doni suddenly made the Light thump. Very sweet treatment makes anyone lulled. Including Light .He felt clumsy and misbehaved with what Doni was doing. But Light could only give up because his body was helpless.

A moment of Light remembering Doni's words last night. The light flinched and directly examined his body. Light has been wearing full clothes . A long pajama made of satin . Of course Doni did all that. Given all that, the light is getting bad.

" So I compressed your head and your body as I rubbed because a fever made you sweat a lot. And I'm changing your clothes too. Don't feel bad, I'm your husband "Doni aware of the discomfort of the Light.

With a slight shift Doni grabbed a small table containing a bowl of porridge and warm tea. Doni grabs the bowl of porridge and without being asked Doni feeds the Light .

" I'm just. " The Light refused.

" You're sick, let me. Aaak. " Light Finally According to . With painstaking care Doni feeds until half of it has moved to the belly of Light.

" Already, Bang. Loving ! "Light rejects Doni's bribe.

" A little more. "

" No, afraid of vomiting. "

" Okay, have some tea. " Doni grabbed the tea glass and handed it to the Light's hand. Light drank the tea until it ran out.

" Have you eaten ? " Task the Light.

" Of course, you slept a long time. Look ! What time is it. " Doni showed his Mobile screen which showed at eleven o'clock in the afternoon.

" Sorry... " The light is feeling more guilty.

" Don't apologize. " Doni took the glass from the Light's hand and put it on the nightstand. Then Doni grabbed the fingers of Light and grasped it gently. " I'm the one who's sorry for making you this sick. " Doni's voice was shriveled with guilt.

" It's okay, I'm weak. " Answer Light.

" Pick up the medicine, yeah. If by late afternoon the heat doesn't come down, we're going to the hospital." Doni doesn't seem to want to talk much about last night. Then he grabbed the white package he had bought while Light was still sleeping and opened it one by one.

Doni handed over to Light, and immediately Light swallowed the three pills alternately and sipped the white water that Doni offered. Then the Light returned to lay down his head while gently massaging his forehead to reduce his headache .

" What's so sick, let's just go to the hospital. " Doni rubbed the head of the soft Light.

" No need Bang, just ate medicine. It also healed soon. " The voice of Light sounded weak.

" Then, rest. " Doni lifted the Light body slightly and reduced the pile of pillows so that the Light could lie down comfortably.

" Bang... When do we go home ? " Squeak Light.

" Ak.I miss the children. " The light could see a faint smile on Doni's lips.

" They've gone home with Ibuk and Rania. I told them we were here for three days. But don't worry I won't ask for it now, because you're sick again. The other if you ask. " Doni tried to joke around when he noticed the tense look on Light's face.

" Not ! " Reply Light fast. " Where could I be. " The light cast its gaze towards the window, to avoid Doni's ignorant gaze.

" Alright, I'll make you ask for it someday then. " Say Doni smiled meaningfully.

" I sleep first, sleepy ! " The light pulled on her waist blanket and lay down on her back to Doni. His cheeks were hot and blushing because of Doni's words just now. Doni let the Light rest. With the still-heard ruckus Doni rubbed the head of the Light and then kissed it.

The light froze with a beating heart. While closing the eyes Light permeated the warm kiss of Doni which lasted more than five seconds. His heart was suddenly anxious about receiving Doni's treatment earlier. Remembering last night and today all the opposite.

" Which are you, if you're disgusted why this morning was so warm. " The Light murmur in the heart.

" Let's rest, I'm on the couch if there's anything to call it. " Donny got up and walked towards the sofa. It turned out that there was a laptop and some paper lying on the table. It seems like Doni brought his work to remember they will be here until the Light heals.

After a long silence, the light finally fell asleep. Maybe because the effect of the drug makes the Light eyes back heavy. No matter how long he slept, the Light began to be piqued by the sound of someone talking. Without opening her eyes Light knew it was Doni talking to someone.

" Please get some people to my house. Tidying up and renovating rooms and moving workspaces. I'll call the house guys to drive them later. And I'm asking to be ready in two days. "

".... "

" Ok, I'll wait. " Donis decided on the call. I don't know who's for sure Light's sure Doni's talking on his cell phone.

A few moments later.....

" Ashalamu'alaikum, Buk. I sent some people home to tidy up my old room and Dad's office. Then please show me as we discussed the other day. "

" .... "

" Come, please don't discuss it again. I want Tiara's room to stay that way. That's all I'm asking for, Buk. I've fulfilled my wish to marry Light, right ? "

"..... "

" Buk ! I will never forget Tiara . No one would disturb Tiara's property whatever it is including our room.

"...... "

" I don't care, Buk. Let Light and Mother have no right to forbid me. Sorry Buk ! "

The light could hear the conversation between Doni and Ibu Ratih clearly, even though it was on the side. But Light could understand the meaning of Doni's words clearly. I don't know why the heart of Light feels pinched and pained.

The light again thought about the words of Doni who said that this marriage was done with all his heart. How could it be if in his heart was still filled by his ex-wife Tiara.

Until now Light has not been able to judge what kind of Doni. Why getting here Light is like seeing Doni who is good at manipulation. Sometimes the Light felt touched when he saw every sweet speech, but last night the words of Doni were able to tear his heart.

The light still faithfully closed his eyes. He felt reluctant to open his eyes and see Doni's sweet smile full of falsehoods. Until Doni's footsteps could be heard from the balcony approaching the Light.
