Skylar And The Lecturer

60

The melodious chirping of a flock of birds on the branches of trees around the hospital sounded reassuring, making Skylar slowly open her eyes to get used to the light that entered her retina.

"Eumh, it's morning again" muttered Skylar who woke up from her sleep.

Her back feels sore because all night sleeping in a sitting position to keep her husband who has not been awake. Long breathing was interrupted by Skylar, feeling worried about Teon's condition which was still unconscious.

"Do I have to kiss you, Mom?" Skylar said as he gently rubbed Teon's forehead.

Skylar's gaze looks soft, his eye bags even look blackened with his face that also looks pale.

Skylar's tears inundated his eyes, until drop by drop began to fall on Teon's cheeks and forehead.

"when did you fall asleep like this, Mom? I don't want to be a widow..."

For whatever reason the fear of being left for dead by Teon continues to haunt Skylar making the young woman feel very unsafe and very anxious. Skylar couldn't imagine what if she had really been a widow who hadn't even had the chance to feel what it was like to be a full-fledged wife, it would have been terrible to make Skylar shudder.

"Who said you'd be a widow?" the heavy, soft voice sounded out, greeting Skylar's sense of hearing who had long missed her husband Teon.

Skylar without a second thought immediately grabbed the weak body of her husband full of gratitude, her tears continued to flow very grateful finally Teon can be awakened after days of long critical period.

"Now that you don't talk much first, I should call the doctor right now to check your condition further" Skylar said, wiping off a trail of her tears with the back of her hand.

Teon who was still in a weak condition could only nod his head in agreement, making Skylar rush to find a doctor to immediately give treatment to Teon.

...****...

The VVIP outpatient room where Teon underwent open treatment, drew Papa Lucas' attention as a bespectacled man in a white suit on his proportional body walked out of it.

"Will my daughter-in-law be okay, Doc?" Papa Lucas asked after Roger's doctor, who had just completed a series of detailed examinations, to Teon, came out of Teon's ward.

Doctor Roger smiled faintly. "of course. his wound has improved and Teon's condition is also stable, I'm sure he can return home soon."

A sense of relief enveloped Skylar, Papa Lucas and Mother. They were so happy that Teon was finally okay after the horrible incident.

"Thank God then" said Mother with a smile of relief.

Doctor Roger nodded. "keep watching Teon to rest well yes, then give him more nutrition.then I'll excuse you first."

The main corridor of the hospital this afternoon seemed more deserted than before, not many people passed by making the atmosphere feel more silent.

Skylar pushed slowly through Teon's outpatient room, producing a rattling sound that was not so obvious but still made Teon know that someone was coming.

Teon's smile still seemed to welcome the arrival of the wife even though her face now looks a little paler.

"What are you carrying?" teon asked softly while trying to get up from his sleeping position.

Skylar swiftly helped her husband.

"well, slow down, Mom, your wounds haven't completely dried up yet. I brought you some corn soup, and you haven't eaten yet, have you?"

Skylar chuckled. "you have no other choice, dear husband.I have to make sure all the food you eat has plenty of nutrients."

Teon could only sigh resignedly, yes, inevitably he had to keep eating whatever food chosen by his wife Skylar to speed up his recovery.

Skylar began scooping up his corn soup to feed Teon to make sure he was really eating the food he had made with all his heart.

"Aren't you hurt?" Teon asked after swallowing his food which turned out to be quite good.

"No, but I'm worried about being a widow if you don't survive."

Teon smashed the soft top of Skylar's head.

"i will always be by your side until any time because I am your husband, and that will never change."

"Do you know how worried I am?"

With eyes full of love Teon looked at his wife. "of course I know and understand very well, dear. this is not the first time I was seriously injured."

Skylar wiped away her tears that were beginning to seep.

"i feel guilty because you've done twice as much harm with me, Mas."

The two corners of Teon's lips were attracted, forming a beautiful basin that became Skylar's favorite.

"stop blaming yourself, baby, it's not your fault or mine but it's God's destiny."

Teon tucked Skylar's haircut behind the ear. "all we need to do is face it all together no matter what. Remember, you are mine and I am yours."

For whatever sake Teon felt his heart ache when Skylar's tears fell, he really did not want to let the woman he loved more than anything shed his tears again like this. Teon's sturdy hand stretched out, wiping Skylar's tear trail so gently that it was not left.

"Because you are my wife, then whatever happens to you is my responsibility, whatever I will do for your happiness, Wendelline Skylar" Teon said, clasping Skylar's hand tightly.

The eyes of Adam were filled with earnestness, making Skylar unable to take his eyes off - he fell in love again for the umpteenth time with Teon.

"Please don't get hurt again" Skylar pleaded.

"Open? even dead I would be willing if it was to protect you, so stop worrying about things you don't need to worry about because I'll always be by your side no matter what."

A pair of red threads now intertwined with each other, loving each other with a whole heart without strings attached. Wendelline Skylar and Teon Tirdianata, two human children destined by God to complete each other because of the request of each of their parents in heaven.

"Mr Tyranny, I can't believe we managed to persuade God to give our child unparalleled happiness," a woman with jet-black hair who shone smilingly looked at the newlyweds from a distance.

"I'm so happy God is pleased to unite them as we wish, Mrs Wong," replied the man with a face similar to Teon complete with a charming smile.

The woman smiled, happy to see how Skylar took care of her husband so well, "may they not be separated until heaven picks them up."
