Patience is sweet



It's been 2 weeks, Ineke's sleeping. He hasn't seen his little baby yet.


"Darling... haven't woken up yet? Today my son is 2 weeks old. He's very clever. Every now and then, my mother visits our home. Brother Alka is also smart, every sister is thirsty, always ask for milk to Miss Min. Shay.. When we wake up, we take a family photo. Our family is complete. We have a couple of smart kids. Honey, Aa misses. Aa dear Ine."


Every day, before and after his duty, the doctor always visited his wife. Saturday and Sunday too, he has never been absent to be next to his wife. His once clean face, now overgrown with irregular hair. Her once neat hair, now often disheveled.


"Yopi's doctor's office, since his wife gave birth and until now unconscious, has been reprimanded by doctor Ferdi, about tidiness" said the nurse who felt compassion for him.


"Bro..your hair is long, your face is not too bad either. Sempetin to the haircut gih. Where's Doctor Yopi who's drizzling?" said Dr. Andra who became one of his close friends.


"Got me, Ineke thought to make me sad. Most importantly, I could always be next to Ineke" Doctor Yopi replied. Doctor Andra was speechless no more.


As usual, Doctor Yopi was still beside Ineke who was still sleeping. Occasionally, he washed Ineke's face and body. He always invited Ineke to tell him about work in hospitals, clinics, and at home.


"Honey.. Aa is not strong anymore.. Aa surrender.. I don't know if I want to do anything else. I can't bear to see Ine like this." He lowered his head and clasped Ineke's hand.


There was a vibration as he grasped that hand. Aa surprised. And he pushed a button to call the nurse.


Aa examined Ineke with a stethoscope around his neck. The first movement after a long time Ineke did not move at all.


"Honey. See Aa's hand?" Then he moved his hand to the right and to the left. The nurse recorded the progress that was made on Ineke.


2 Days passed, and slowly, Ineke's state progressed.


"Yopi's doctor's patience, sweet fruit" said the nurse in the ICU room who was touched by the struggle of doctor Yopi.


Ineke doesn't talk much, his tongue is still muffled. He only looked at the man beside him who still often let out tears.


"Sus.." Ineke called the nurse who was on duty in the creepy room.


"Who's the name of the doctor who's always in this room? I seem to know"


The nurse was confused. Almost 3 months Ineke closed his eyes, and doctor Yopi, her own husband, she did not know? The nurse smiled.


"That's doctor Yopi, ma'am"


"Adrianus's copy? Ah. is impossible. My girlfriend, her man is nice. After all, he was in Bali again. "


"Daughter?" the nurse was spontaneously confused.


"Mom just rest? Don't think about anything, ma'am."


Ineke nodded.and the nurse immediately resumed her duties.


"There were 2 Yopi Adrianus. But is Aa skinny tall, why is Yopi his body so big?" ask in the heart.


"Good afternoon, sus"


The voice surprised the sisters who were busy doing chores on their respective tables.


"Sore, doc. Oh yes doc. That's when Ineke spoke to me. And he didn't recognize the doctor. There seems to be a lost memory."


Doctor Yopi, confused. "Thank you for the info, I tried to see my wife first huh"


Aa immediately headed for the room where Ineke was. He saw the woman he loved.


"Who are you?"
