Surviving the Waiting

CHAPTERS. 223. Assistance

Happy Reading's...

The car lights used by Arman continued to blink. Electric poles were an easy target for the accident. Unstable circumstances and conditions and the influence of heavy rain make the accident inevitable.

Arman's car crashed into an electric pole upside down. While the driver of the car that caused Arman accident only scuffed a little and managed to escape from the scene of the accident.

A woman carrying an umbrella in her right hand and a crisp bag in her left hand who was walking under the rain because she wanted to dispose of garbage by accident saw the accident. The woman ran to help the crash victim.

"Oh Allah what happened, why is it like this?" he asked himself.

Karina checked all over the car to check for any fatalities. But due to circumstances that are not possible so Karina's view is limited. The car that rolled over and overturned hit the pole the door of the car was locked. Karina had tried to pull the door but the result was in vain. Karina brought her face closer to the driver's car glass by crouching down to see someone who was unconscious with blood on his head.

so sorry for the driver of the sports car, hopefully still alive, I have to seek help to save his life immediately.

Karina stood up and ran for help. Because it is already midnight, there is rarely a community that is awake from sleep. Karina immediately sought help to patrol the post, usually in the place where many young people have not slept because playing with mabar online games. With the umbrella still in her grasp, Karina further accelerated her pace after seeing there were still some young men standing guard at the Ronda post.

"Please.please have someone who has an accident at the end of the intersection of the road, the car overturned, help me to help get the victim out" Karina said with a hunting breath and gnawing.

"Where did it happen??" asked a young man.

"Near the road turn towards our complex, let's quickly pity the victim" said Karina again.

They secured their respective mobile phones and ran towards the crash site.

"Jeez this is a very bad car condition" said young man A.

"This expensive car, just look at the tires" said the B.

"Yes I believe the owner must be the son of the sultan" said C.

Karina was surprised to see the young man who was just busy observing the car without wanting to help the driver of the accident.

"What are you doing haaaa!! just busy with the price of the car, if you are curious later we ask the owner but save the victim first pity Do not let him die" said Karina.

The young men tried to open the door of Arman's car and someone immediately took the motorbike along with his raincoat.

With great difficulty finally the door was opened and they took the victim out. Karina was shocked to see who the victim of the accident was. The victim was Arman.

"Let's quickly get on the bike before it's too late and don't forget to put on the rain coat" Karina said.

Karina is carrying the bike and a young man in the back who helps to hold Arman while the others follow them to the hospital. Under the rain, Karina propelled her motorcycle at high speed for fear that Arman's life could not be helped anymore. Fortunately the distance from the scene with the hospital is not too far away.

Karina drove her motorcycle to the entrance of the Hospital and shouted for help.

"Tolongggs... Nurse help us" cried Karina.

The nurse immediately helps Karina and the young man raise Arman's body to the hospital cage and push him away. Karina and some of the young men helped push Arman to the front door of the Operation room.

"It's enough here, you wait outside" said the nurse who prevented Karina and the young man from entering the room by blocking them with both hands.

They also obeyed the nurse. The doctor immediately entered the operating room. A few hours of operation was not completed. Karina paced back and forth in front of the operating room door like an iron.

"Karina we say go home first well, if there is anything to tell us, it's 2 o'clock because we want to sahur so go home first" said Si B.

"Thank you bro for his help, without you I wouldn't have been able to take Mr. Arman to the hospital" Karina said.

"Sama-sama bro, we are going home, assalamu alaikum" said they were compact.

"This is the same wallet as the master who was in the accident" said Si A while pushing the object into Karina's hand.

"Waalaikum greetings, be careful well" said Karina.

Karina had hugged her body that had shivered from the cold, all the clothes Karina was wearing were soaked.

It'll be dry, too, but how do I dial your family number. Arman huh? I don't know the key code for Mr. Arman.

Karina sometimes stands sometimes sitting on a special bench waiting for patients. Karina wants to find food for Sahur but because Karina does not bring money, Karina is forced to drink only water. Karina walked towards the hospital Resto and asked for help to be given water to just block her stomach and as her food.

"Mbak can ask for help, for a glass of water well Ma'am, just a little as long as there is" said Karina who hopes to get water for her consumption as her sahur.

The resto guard watched Karina from head to toe.

Beautiful but unfortunately poor and asking, only mineral water he can not afford what else good clothes while shaking his head.

"I'm sorry there's nothing free here, Ma'am, so please look somewhere else" the boy said and gently chased Karina away.

Karina walked straight towards the exit. It's past 3 o'clock, but Karina hasn't sahur either. Karina checked her pants pocket because she remembered that this afternoon there was a buyer who gave herself more money than the normal price of the cake she was selling. And by repeatedly checking all the pockets of his pants and fortunately there is a piece of money that has been wet that is two thousand rupiah.

Thank God there is a piece of money 2rb, earlier I forgot that it turns out I've loved all to the mother of the money I got.

Karina walked towards the back of the hospital and looked for food or drink vendors who were priced according to the money she held. Karina was now already standing in front of the small stall. Then buy mineral water in plastic cups and the rest a packet of bread.

"Glass water packs are just as much bread" Karina said as she thrust the money toward the guard's father.

"Sorry, sir, the money was wet, because I drove a sick friend to the hospital just riding a motorcycle so my clothes were wet" explained Karina.

"You can get sick son if you keep wearing those clothes" said the father as he passed into his stall.

Karina sat down and enjoyed her sahur meal. Karina remained grateful even though she only ate potluck sahur only. The owner of the Warung walked towards Karina with a sheet of sarong.

"This is a glove you can wear, so that your body is not too cold" said the father.

"Father does not need to bother really, I can still hold the pack" said Karina who refused subtly because she did not want to bother others.

"It's okay son, if you don't want to take it assume you borrow it so if you have a new time you return here" said the father who forced Karina to take it.

"Because you forced me to take this holster" said Karina with a sweet smile towards the father.

If only you had a son, I would have matched him with my son, unfortunately, there were no girls with forced smiles.

"There's a lot, sir, if you'll excuse me because my friend is in surgery, Assalamu alaikum" said Karina, who said goodbye to the father.

Karina held the glove and walked back towards the operating room. And it turns out that Arman is still not done in surgery. Karina also wears her scabbard due to the cold and sits in the waiting chair. Karina slept on the bench. After a while, the operation was completed and went well. The nurse came out to look for the whereabouts of the person who delivered the patient. The nurse smiled looking at Karina who was fast asleep on the long chair.

The nurse actually pityed to wake Karina up but because her administration had to be completed before the Patient was transferred into the treatment room.

"Sir, Ma'am woke up his friend had finished surgery" said the nurse who was trying to wake Karina.

Karina awoke from her sleep and immediately got up and tightened the sheath as the weather got colder.

"Sorry My Mother overslept, very sleepy because of it" said Karina who was embarrassed because she was caught falling asleep.

"Friend Mbak has been operated on so please finish the administration as soon as possible so that patients are immediately transferred to the treatment room" explained the Sister.

Karina bengong with the words of the Sister and confused about where to take the money from. Money dime does not have. to eat sahur just a piece of bread and a glass of water only.

"Sorry Mom, did you hear what I said?" ask the sister.

"Eeehhhh sorry Ma'am, I will immediately finish all his administration" replied Karina who was sinking asleep.

Then Karina got up from her seat, the wallet she had held earlier fell down. Karina took the wallet. Then check the contents of the wallet which is milk chocolate which is very soft material with a famous brand.

Thank God I can use these cards to pay for Mr. Arman's maintenance and surgery.

Karina tidied her hair and plucked her long hair at home then walked towards the receptionist and the administration to pay off the maintenance and surgery costs of Arman.

"Sorry this card can be used to pay off the arrears of care payments on behalf of Arman Mbak??" asked Karina who took the black Arman Credit Card.

The employee immediately took the credit card.

"Sorry what the pin number is?" asked the employee.

Karina is confused because she does not know the pin number of Arman's card. Karina checked the contents of Arman's wallet and took out all the money in the wallet and it turned out that there were about 5 million contents of the wallet.

I took the money first well sir to pay for the down payment on the father's care, I have no money because and the father's credit card also can not use.

"I'm sorry if I can pay this first Ma'am, then later for repayment" said Karina while giving the money of 5 million.

"We received this money but the hospital waited for Mbak to pay it off until 1 pm if Mbak has not paid it off we were forced to move Teman mbak to another treatment room and the remaining payment is 245 million well Ma'am" explained the mbak.

Karina was shocked after hearing the total money she still had to pay.

Many mamat heh Mbak, can be replaced partially using rice or using hehehehe cleaning services

" Thank you Ma'am, I will try as soon as possible" Karina said as she passed from the front of the Mbak.

Karina walks into Arman's treatment room while Arman is already on top of the hospital cage inside the VIP treatment room. Because it was 4 am, Mata Karina left 5 whatt, Karina was asleep next to Arman's hand while sitting in a chair.
