Sleeping Rooster

Sleeping Rooster
23. Story



Linda ran towards the hospital hallway towards the room where Ardan was being treated. There found Mr. Herman and Bu Farda crying because of the loss of Ardan. The doctor and the nurse there removed all the tools attached to Ardan's body.


"Doctor, please help Ardan to come back." Linda asked.


"Sorry son. I'm just a doctor and I'm not God."


"No, Ardan you should wake up. Ardan please wake up for me." ask Linda while shaking Ardan's body.


Honey wake up son....


Suddenly there was a voice he was very familiar with right beside him. Linda woke up with a wet sweat pouring down her forehead.


"What's up, son? You're having nightmares." asked her mother.


Linda hugged the mother who was next to her.


"I'm afraid of losing someone. I'm afraid to be the bad guy for not apologizing to him."


His mother knew about Ardan because Linda told him everything yesterday. About Ardan in coma.


"That dream looks like a real ma to me. I'm afraid I'm losing her."


"Not to think about it anymore. Now you take a shower and look at Ardan. Mama has made food to be eaten in the hospital with Bu Farda and Mr. Herman." ask her mother.


Linda got up from her seat and stretched her tired body from sleeping all night at her study table. Linda was crying yesterday and did not feel asleep at her study table.


He took a shower and left his mother who was cleaning his study table.


Today is a bright Sunday. Linda rushed away and was ushered in by her own papa.


Linda opened the door of her car carrying provisions that had been prepared by her mother. In his papa waiting to drive.


"Are you ready, baby?" ask papa.


"It's pa."


His father immediately drove his car to the hospital where Ardan was being treated. Tall buildings and city crowds color Linda and her papa's journey. Sometimes they talk about random things. It's music, a new building or something.


"Who were the roses yesterday?" ask papa.


"From Dion pa."


"Who is the dandelion flower from?" ask the father again.


"Dandelion, oh that yellow flower. It's from Ardan pa."


His father just nodded.


Unexpectedly 20 minutes away, they finally arrived in front of the hospital. His father bought a parking ticket and immediately parked his car.


After the car stopped perfectly in the parking lot Linda rushed to open the door of her car and did not forget to bring the provisions that had been prepared by her mother.


"Come pa!" take Linda.


His father immediately walked around following his son from behind.


...****************...


A notification from someone made Dion wake up and feel the touch of a small table next to him. He picked up his phone and read the chat while lying on his stomach in bed. It was from Lina.


Dion gave her phone number while talking to Lina. Dion didn't ask for his number, but he gave it to his phone himself.


"Why does he have to be?!!" irritated Dion.


|| Hi Dion, how are you? ||


"So familiar he's the same cave." grumbled Dion.


^^^|| Good. ||^^


Lina replied to Dion's message very quickly but at that time Dion rushed to change clothes and ran off early in the morning. Routines that Dion rarely do because of the busy head of OSIS. He never brought his cell phone when running in the morning because it can interfere.


|| I'm waiting for you at the supermarket we visited. I want to thank you. ||


Dion ran around the compound near her home and found a female figure waiting at a supermarket near her home. The woman looked at Dion and greeted him.


"Dion." said the woman who was none other than Lina.


...****************...


Today the weather was clear but not with Linda's heart. He waited for the consciousness of his friend but that was long enough. Linda sips warm tea in the park near the hospital because Ardan has been accompanied by Bu Farda and Mr. Herman. He came here because his stomach was rumbling and wanted to go to the cafeteria to buy bread.


Linda rarely eat breakfast with rice because she thinks that there is rice in the morning her stomach sometimes feels nauseous and wants to vomit. He always ate bread in the morning.


A child approached Linda and wanted her to read something from the book.


"Can't you read a book?" ask the little boy.


"Could, why? I want you to read the book."


"Boleh brother. I'm looking for a mother who doesn't exist."


"Judah brother read yes."


It turned out that the book that the little boy brought was titled princess sleep. Linda told the little boy everything. Sometimes children ask about the story.


"Trus if the sleeping princess is poisoned how does sis wake up?" ask the little boy.


"Son't read the whole thing."


The little boy just nodded his head and went back to listening to Linda's story.


Linda read the story to the end. Suddenly the little boy asked what Linda could not answer.


"Sister, my father will sleep a long time. Would if I kissed her forehead wake up?" ask the little boy.


Linda was silent to hear that. He doesn't know what to answer. Linda never even believed in fairy tales because she thought they were just stories made by people.


"Maybe, but you should also pray for your father to wake up soon." replied Linda soberly.


"I have always prayed for my father but have not woken up yet" said the little boy.


"Alan.." call a woman with a sobbing approaching her son who is sitting next to Linda.


"Geez, wherever you want. Mom's come to you" said the mother, hugging her son.


"So alan asked to be read a story by this good brother because there was no mother" replied the innocent child.


"Thank you for taking care of my son" said the mother.


"It's the same mom."


"Then we'll excuse us."


"Yes, my heart is heart."


"Bad brother when will we tell you again." said the little boy.


"Concrete. Be careful." Linda replied.


Linda waved her hand at the little boy who was now being held by his mother leaving him.


Linda felt lonely again because there were no friends to talk to. Linda thought very closely about the little boy's words.


Is it true that kissed his forehead can wake up. Inner Linda.


But Linda immediately brushed it off because she thought it was impossible if the comatose person kissed her forehead would wake up.


The ringing of the phone made Linda reach into her pants pocket and take her cell phone. It was from his papa.


"Hello pa."


"Where are you?" ask her worried dad across there.


"I'm in the park near the pa hospital. I bought bread in the canteen."


"Judah you go to the room again. So that papa is not difficult nyari in you." said his papa across there.


"Good pa. Linda get there soon."


Linda immediately hung up the phone from her papa and rushed to Ardan's room back.
