Secrets of the Former (Love Left Behind)

Tiga

Gantari became special to Farez, as he was the first patient he treated when he became a resident doctor.

Gantari became special because she loved her mother more than herself, just like her old self.

Gantari became so very special when five years ago the girl begged and trusted him so much to save her life.

"Doc?" Rendy, the doctor knocking on the door, made Farez flinch in shock.

"The monitor was turned into an impingement" he said as he sat in front of Farez while wiping the monitor affectionately.

"It's a lot of loe time" said Farez.

Rendy giggles. "Now also out of the operating room."

Farez leaned his elbow against the table and held his chin staring seriously at the computer screen again.

"When dong?"

Rendy's question just now made Farez raise his eyebrows and throw a confused look at his best friend while he was the resident doctor.

"When do you think about Ma'am Dihyan?" Obviously Rendy giggled.

Farez glares. He was clamoring to make sure no one was there. Then throw the patient's lab results on Rendy.

This time it was Rendy. "That's a patient's prized possession!"

Farez hurriedly quoted the paper again, then stroked it hoping not to tangle making Rendy ngak incessantly.

"It's lucky for Dihyan to have such an innocent husband" teased Rendy again.

"I really threw it out the window."

Rendy ciut's. He tightly closed his mouth with both palms, then shook his head quickly.

Farez sat down again. He looked back at the monitor.

"He's interested in me, don't you think?"

Rendy glanced at Farez, then spoke in a blubuk voice because his mouth was still silenced by his own hands making Farez's blood rise and intended to hit Rendy's head with the CPU, but the young doctor had already run away first.

"Finally my mother's daughter-in-law came too."

That was the welcome Shanessa received when she met Nevan's mother at their residence.

The stylish graceful lady kissed Shanessa's cheeks. "What's healthy?"

"Alhamdulillah be healthy, Auntie," replied Shanessa kalem.

"Tante told Nevan to take you home. But he said only a little."

Shanessa glanced at Nevan who was silent, then laughed softly. "Compense college, Aunt."

"Yes, anyway. Now that you've graduated, you've actually been invited here," Auntie laughed again. He is a cheerful figure. Too cheerful when compared to his mostly somber son.

Two years ago, when Shanessa decided to study in Australia, although it was not until the end, the Ardiwinata family was wary of releasing her. However, as Aunt Tiwi guaranteed, that Nevan, her son would be a good guard for Shanessa, they allowed her.

At the beginning of the meeting, Nevan was a cold figure. He spoke very rarely and his eyes were so dark, like the darkness of the night after the storm.

Shanessa.

"Dihyan."

"Dihyan."

"Dihyan."

Gantari jerking. Breathing snorted. A huge sweat thread drenched his forehead. He straightened his body that feels pain, his throat also feels dry. Apparently, she fell asleep bowing on the office desk. The computer screen is still on, displaying colorful exel pages in different rows.

He wiped his sweat, then went to the pantry to be able to downing a glass of water. She was awake all night, telling her a lot of things about her dear mother.

"Tar, meeting in ten minutes, yes," Siska appeared telling a brief nod by Gantari.

"Why? You sick?" Siska spontaneously touched Gantari's worried forehead.

"No," said Gantari.

"Seriously? Later Mr. Ardiman can rampage if I torture his nephew."

Gantari smiles. "I'm fine."

Siska shrugged her shoulders lightly. "Well, close without you would be bland. Clients nyinyir will be meraja lela. Stay healthy, yes," said Siska, then passed by carrying a cup of instant coffee.

Gantari returned to a thin smile. He remembered his dream again. Dreams that always disturb his sleep. Dreams whose intensity is increasing these days.

Nevan was leaning on the sofa while kneeling her temple, when Bi Murni came with a cup of black coffee. His head's dizzy, he was late again last night.

"Not sleeping anymore, Leh?"

Nevan looked up, then smiled. "Sleep, Bi."

"Yes, it's early morning sleep" said Ms. Murni.

Pure Bi's reply just made Nevan chuckle for a moment. Then, he sipped coffee made by the middle-aged woman up to half. His fondness for black coffee has lasted long enough and has been advised by doctors to be reduced.

The sound of the bell rang, making Pure Bi move to open the door.

Before long a familiar voice sounded, making Nevan no need to guess who the guests who came so early.

The mother immediately took place beside Nevan and complained about the high temperature when it was still morning.

Nevan sipped his coffee again. His eyes glanced out the window. Until my mother's words made him look in disbelief.

"Saturday we go to Shanessa's house. Mama said the same to Ardi. At least you guys got engaged first."

A saturday? That means five more days.

"Is there anything you want to bring? Some have mama prepared, anyway," said mama giggled herself.

My mother looked at me because her question never got an answer.

"Just do as your mom used to do. Deciding everything by yourself," Nevan replied coldly. Then, he took the keys to the car on the nightstand and kissed the mother's hand, then walked to the door. He suddenly wanted to hurry to the office.

Nevan spurred his black APV at an unusual pace. The window panes he left open, making his face slapped by the road wind. He closed his eyes for a few seconds, then opened them again. Nothing has changed. I don't know when this world will no longer be colored.
