SPECIAL ACTOR

CHAPTER 9. DANTE'S ANGER

Take on Feelings

Zula was serving the buyers when Juki came to the stall. The young man's expression looked flat like a board.

"Cock is back. Lodi's mom okay?"

Juki just shrugged her shoulders in response to Zula's question.

"Mr Hendar is gone?"

"It's still there."

"So, why did you leave Madam Lodi alone?"

"Si Hendar was no longer angry. The anger's over here."

"Can't that be it?" asked Zula curiously.

"Eitherway. There are two people on his face" said Juki annoyed.

When Juki arrived at Lodi's house, Hendar was busy chatting with Bu Sum. Laughing like meeting an old friend.

"But thank God instead of being angry" said Zula.

Juki silently heard the comment.

"Bantuin beberes, yuk," said Zula.

Juki helped clean up for a while and then went home soon.

"Why are you so angry at my stall, Ndar?"

"I? Getting angry? Your staff misunderstood."

Lodi glanced at Juki. Juki shrugged her shoulders.

"So what do you want?"

"Lodi, I'm sorry."

"I was forced to sell the car to pay off the craftsmen. Debt is not too strong."

"I'm really sorry."

Juki was either relieved or exasperated by the situation. Slowly he left Hendar and Lodi. Selflessly.

***

"So Hendar finally bought all the rest of the shirt?"

"Yes, Mom."

"Thank God. You can buy another car."

"Yes. Kasian Dawn if you go everywhere riding a motorbike."

[I'm still here for 3 days. Tomorrow to yuk beach]

Lodi doesn't know what to answer. Hendar has paid for a shirt that's 100 kodi. But, that doesn't mean he has to obey Hendar's wishes, right?

"I'm busy with divorce. So you didn't get to call, Lodi."

Defend yourself for being late to pay the bills.

"And I never got in touch with you either. Why did you change the number?" sahut Lodi is upset.

"Some one's terrorizing me."

A widower taking a walk to the beach is something.

"Hendar is a widower, Ma'am?"

"Yes. What's the matter, Nad?"

"Ah, that's okay."

Nada's guilt makes him want to see someone soon.

[Or to the mountain?]

[No. Thank you]

[Alright. We're going to the beach. I picked up at 5 to enjoy the twilight]

Lodi. "Is this a reckless man, or does he fail to understand?"

***

Morning, afternoon, night come and go. Conform precision. Death, life and love, who can predict?

"Why is his name Dawn, Ma'am? Is it day?"

Lodi, Zula and Juki had a lovely chat at the kiosk.

"If it's a man, I give it the name of Dawn. If it's a woman, Mentari."

"What philosophy?"

"When the dawn or the sun comes, the darkness goes away. Without any commotion happening."

"Wooo .... Cool." Juki and Zula simultaneously exclaimed.

"Bak, even if the pile of shirts is up, Juki can still work here, right?" ask Zula.

Lodi looked at Zula. Then replace Juki.

'Is there love between the two of them?'

"I'm up to Juki. Because honestly, I haven't been able to pay properly."

"Thank you if you're allowed, ma'am. I'll try to offer more. Via online."

Tuttt

Tuttt

Lodi picked up the phone.

"Tone? I'm going there."

"I'll go first. Nada. I've been waiting for mom. Waiting there too. But he kept saying my name."

"Amselves, or shall I take you?" Juki offers.

"On your own."

Lodi holds Dawn. Then remember something.

"But I seem to ask for a delivery. Dawn cannot be invited to enter rs. You okay, carrying Dawn?"

"Asiyappp. I used to carry Santi's kid. Dawn, I also persecute."

The three of them went to the maternity clinic. Bu Suminah welcomes Lodi tergopoh. His face is wrinkled here and there.

"Then?"

"The doctor suggested surgery. Uterus lift. But let's hesitate."

"Where to Donate?"

"He accompanied Nada. Only the husband can enter" said Bu Sum.

"Mbak Lodiii ..." heard a groan.

"Suster, I'm Lodi. The patient called me. I can come in, okay?"

The nurse looked at Lodi. Then his co-workers.

"Mbak Lodi ...."

"alright. Just for a second."

Lodi ran like half-flying. His breathing almost stopped the moment he saw Nada. Pallid. The doctor and several officers surrounded.

"Mbak Lodi ...."

Voiced tone. But the real thing is, consciousness is out of nowhere.

"Tone, it's me. Remember Alloh. Laa ilaha illalloh."

"The quick way to stop bleeding is surgery. The mother's uterus may have been torn" the doctor said.

"But the pediatrician said my baby's condition was also not good. Life and death fifty fifty. If my wife's uterus is removed ...."

Lodi spontaneously gripped the arm of Sumbang. "Four days you think like that. Does Nada's life not matter?"

Looked at Lodi. Nanars.

"Please, let the doctor remove her uterus."

Still not answering.

"You already have a child. Dawn."

Looked at Lodi.

"But all this time you've been preventing me from approaching."

"For the sake of Allah, after this I never forbid you again. But please, save Nada's life. Make efforts. Whatever it is."

Sighed a long breath.

"alright. I'll sign the operation agreement."

"Set up the operating room. Hopefully it's not too late!" Doctor Exclamations.

"Mbak Lodi ...."

Lodi is back nearing Nada. Reaching the cold hand.

"I'm sorry Tone."

Hearing Nada's apology, Lodi's spontaneous chest felt tight. Half-dead mother gave birth to one that held back tears.

"Mdad forgave you. Hang in. Your daughter. Well-favoured. Give him the name Mentari. Then play with Dawn."

After saying that Lodi's chest felt relieved. Plongs. Sorry it seems not only intended for Nada, but also for Sumbang who stood between them.

Smiling in pale tone. "Thank you, Ma'am ...."

Pyoh...

A lump of blood came back out from the legs of Tone. It's fresh red.

"Doctorr ...." Lodi yells.

Doctor running. Nurse approaching. Contribute spontaneously move aside. Lodi was recklessly standing on the side of Nada near the head.

Oxygen hose replaced hood. Milked infusion. The other nurse put an infusion on the other hand. The doctor was busy giving instructions.

Code blue's...

Code blue's...

The loudspeaker shouted a call.

"Laa ilaha ilalloh ...."

Lodi whispers a tawhid sentence into Nada's ear. The lips of the tone seemed to be moving weakly.

Code blue team came to help Nada.

"Grojok!"

"Appneu patient!"

"A doctor moves to install a device to open the mouth Tone. After that a sucker slang was inserted."

Breathing aid pumped. A heart rate recording device was also installed. Flat waves appear.

One

Two

Three

Four

An officer helps pump the heart from the outside. Other officers occasionally pumped the breathing apparatus.

"Pinephrine...."

"Blood...."

"Reflex pupil...."

Lodi wants to scream. As much as he could, he held back. He leaned over kissing the forehead and once again whispered the tawhid sentence.

"Epi in!"

Twenty minutes the scene continued. Lodi could only shut her mouth while crying.

"Lord, please save my sister's life. Let him be happy with Sumbang and his son. I beg ...."

"Where's the family?" finally the doctor asked.

Donch, Lodi, mom's closing in.

"Sorry, we tried. But...."

"Nadaa....." Lodi hysterical. He did not want to hear the next doctor's words.
