Sharing Love "The First Wife's Wait"

Chapter 17

Fatma spent her days working in a warteg food stall, she did not look for a job in a shop. Because he does not want to meet again with Nadira. For three days now, Fatma helped Bu Esih become a waiter at the food stall.

"Neng, please make me ask for black coffee" said one of the customers who came to the food stall.

"Yes sir, wait a minute, I make it first" Fatma replied as she boiled the hot water.

"Mother's gang don't make fried, do they? Tumben was empty" asked the father again when he did not find the container where the fried food was located.

"So it's sold out, sir" replied Fatma while giving the coffee that had been in the message earlier.

"Oh yes" said the father a little disappointed.

Fatma also let the father along with his coffee, while he returned to the kitchen to help Bu Esih cook.

"Mom, I help you" Fatma said as she was in the kitchen.

"Don't kid, you just wait in front. Fear that there will be buyers who come" replied Ms. Esih while continuing to stir her cooking.

"Let me help, Mom. Mother rest first" said Fatma staunchly wanted to help Bu Esih cooking.

Esih gave in and let Fatma help her. While focusing on her work, Fatma's old-fashioned phone rang.

"Sorry Mom, can I take this call first?" ask Fatma.

"Yes, pick it up first, who knows it's an important phone" replied Ms. Esih.

Ms. Esih was a good person, when Fatma first met her, she was very friendly. And he also invited Fatma to help him sell at the stall.

Fatma walked out of the kitchen to receive the call.

"Hello Bi?"

"Fatma, where are you? Help us"

"Aunt why?"

"Your sister... Tantri, he–he accident so hit-and-run victim. Now that your uncle and I are in the hospital, you'll follow us here soon"

"Yes Allah... Alright Bi, I'll be there soon. Please Auntie send me the address"

"Yes Fatma, we're waiting for you"

Fatma immediately approached Bu Esih who was still cooking in the kitchen of the stall, after he turned off his phone connection.

"Mom, I'm sorry, can I go out first? My sister was in an accident, she was a hit-and-run victim. Now my Aunt and Uncle are in the hospital to accompany him"

"Oh my god, quickly follow them, son. Hopefully your sister isn't hurt bad"

"Amin, Ma. Thank you so much, I'm going home first"

"Yes son, you're also carefully on the road"

After saying goodbye, Fatma immediately boarded an angkot car that would take her to the hospital. On the way he was already very worried about the state of Tantri, he also did not forget to tell Tio, his younger brother. They agreed to meet in the hospital lobby.

"Sister, let's get to Tantri's ward, Auntie says that Tantri has been moved to the ward"

"Yes, let's go fast!"

They also walked quickly to Tantri's inpatient room. Once there, Aunt Fani and Uncle Andre were sitting worriedly in front of a room.

"Auntie, how's Tantri doing now?" fatma asked when she was in front of her Uncle and Aunt.

At least Aunt Fani loved Tantri more than she did.

"We are very worried about Tantri, Fatma" said Uncle Andre.

"If you may know, where was Tantri in the accident, Bi?" ask Fatma again.

"She was in an accident when she was about to cross in front of her school gate" Aunt Fani replied.

"The person who hit him just ran away without helping him" Uncle Andre said.

Fatma nodded her head. Shortly after, the doctor who treated Tantri came out of the room. Fatma and Aunt, Uncle and Tio immediately approached her.

"Doctor what about my sister?" fatma asked a doctor who had just come out of the room where Tantri was being treated.

Before answering, the doctor breathed a heavy sigh.

"I'm sorry, but the condition of the patient inside is very critical and must be treated immediately. There was a blockage of blood vessels in his brain, and the patient had to undergo surgery" the doctor replied.

Hearing the doctor's words made Fatma's body limp instantly, and she almost fell.

"Oh my god, Tantri" said Aunt Fani in shock, Uncle Andre was no less surprised.

"Doctor, please take care of my sister, I will try to find her funds" Fatma asked the doctor.

"All right, we understand. Once the payment is made, we will handle it immediately. We don't have much time, please finish the payment" the doctor replied before he left.

"Fatma, how's this? Do you have any money for Tantri's operation?" ask Aunt Fani.

"Fatma doesn't have it, Bi. But Fatma will try to pay the medical expenses immediately" replied Fatma confidently.

"You have to try as fast as you can to get the money, Fatma. Tantri's life is in danger" said Uncle Andre.

"Yes Uncle, I will try to bring the money here as soon as possible" replied Fatma again.

Aunty said nothing, even though she loved Tantri, but she loved her money more. So it was Fatma who had to find the funds alone.

Fatma and Tio say goodbye first, they will part ways while riding in the angkot car in front. Aunt Fani and Uncle Andre will be waiting for Tantri.

"Sister, how is this? The money for Tantri's operating expenses is huge. We'll never be able to make that much money in 24 hours!"

"Patience, Yo. I'm sure you can get that money as soon as possible. You doain's a big brother, huh?"

"Hmmm, hopefully big brother can get that money"

"Mother"

They also separated when the transport car that Tio was going to ride came.

"You are careful on the road" Fatma said as she waved her hand.

"Sister is also careful, I pray that everything will be smooth" Tio replied before the transport car he was riding passed leaving Fatma still standing in front of the hospital gate.

"Oh my god, where do I find 50 million in 24 hours?" batin Fatma asked. While the money he had was less than 5 million, it was the rest of the dowry given by Mr. Reymond.

DON'T FORGET TO LEAVE A TRACE
