Seeing the presence of Sulis bu who was panicking, Tri's feelings were not good then eavesdropped on buying talks with the Doctor.
"Can I help you, ma'am?" the doctor approached Sulis.
"Dok, please handle my son, it's been an hour, my son in the ER" the breath of Mrs Sulis stinged with emotions.
"If you're afraid of not getting paid, I pay, in advance!" cynical ma'am Sulis.
"Okay, ma'am, it just so happens that the caretaker is handling a lot of patients so it has to wait its turn" the nurse explained.
"What did you say?! My son is currently dying, but he told me to wait his turn, you said?!" cynical ma'am Sulis.
"Mas Arman? Tri murmured, hearing the dying word his heart slipped. Tri regretted that he was upset with her this afternoon and left without listening to Arman's explanation.
The footsteps of the doctor and Mrs Sulis passed in front of Tri towards the ER. Tri followed a little far from behind.
Up in front of the ER looks Rini, Mr. Burhan, and Kinara is tense in front of the curtain divider between patients one to another, who have not received a room to stay. The doctor then entered the room followed by Mrs Sulis.
With a quick step Tri approached the Arman family then all turned his head.
"Lastri," said Mr. Burhan, Rini and also Kinar together.
"Sir, Mas Arman why Sir, Ms Rini?" lastri's tears are pouring out.
"Relax Nduk, Arman is being examined Doctor," Mr. Burhan calms down. "Betul Tri, who is patient, hopefully Arman is fine," continued Rini and embraced Tri.
"Would you come here?!" cynical ma'am Sulis staring at Tri nyalang. Hearing the voice of the girl that was hated by Mrs Sulis straight outside.
"Mom, hold your emotions! it's a hospital, "prevent Mr. Burhan.
"Go from here! Go on...! You caused Arman pain, you also taught Arman to always refute my orders!" pointed to Sulis ma'am, fiery while pushing Tri's body which is only silent a thousand languages. "Kinar, kick him out!" continued.
Kinar while getting the wind of Heaven, immediately pulled the rough body of Tri until out the ER.
"Don't push on, I can walk on my own!" Tri brushed off Kinar's hand.
"Heh you! women are shameless, no longer considered still approaching Arman!" Kinar was no less cynical with Sulis's mother when her face looked calm.
"Hahaha... who is that shameless?! Me or you, hi... lady named Kinar?!" Tri laughed softly, pressing down on Kinar's chest with his index finger.
"You need to know Kinar, if I came to Arman's house this afternoon, because by order of Sulis's mother." Tri folded two hands in the chest undaunted.
"I'm not a woman like you, a woman who is not a muhrim but stays at the house of a newly known man. Oh nooo..." Tri sneered.
"You?!" Kinan wanted to throw a palm at Tri's face. He was soon arrested by Tri.
"Don't play around Kinar, you think I'm a weak woman, if I succumb to Sulis's mom, because of the old man's buy-in to respect, but not to a woman like you," tri's words made the mouth sparkle like it was gagged.
"Kinar, you need to know, I was in contact with Arman not only by days, months, but for 4 years, even almost married. But never once have I come to his house anything else to stay overnight,"
Flashback.
Tri took a deep breath and closed the desk drawer and then tried to sleep.
