The Angel of Wounds

Chapter 129

Rama was roughing his hair. The doctor's explanation really made his world dark instantly. Wives who are pregnant with the fruits of their first love are in a coma. Conditions in uncertainty between life and death.

"Assalamu'alaikum." Said Kevin. The man had just ventured to approach the Suryanata family, after the doctor had left them.

"Wa'alaikumussalam." They said, except for Ramah. The man was so fucked that he did not care about the situation around him.

"Son Kevin?" Said Diana.

Kevin approached the couple and kissed the backs of their hands in turn. Miss Diana was shocked by Kevin's sudden arrival, especially when the man knew where they were.

"So Mas Kevin had a phone call on Cape Kak Rama. Nay answered." Said Nayla, who made Kevin smile knots towards the girl. Nayla knows that her mother is wondering about Kevin's sudden presence here.

"Son Kevin's alone?" Ask Diana.

"Mama's Mama, Auntie." Miss Rosita walked over towards them. Greetings and hands to Hasna.

"I'm sorry for what happened to Nak Hasna. Sorry, I just got here." Said Miss Rosita.

"It's okay, Grandma, thank you." Said Mr. Andi.

"Just call me Rosita, to be more intimate." Said the middle-aged woman while smiling warmly.

"Sorry, Miss Rosita. I only know the name of Mr. Great." Kekeh Mr. Andi.

"It's okay, Mr. Andi."

"Oh yeah, how's Hasna doing? I waited a long time in front of the room, but it seemed empty. Then I tried to contact Rama, and Nayla said that you were here." Kevin said, looking at Nayla.

Not that Kevin doesn't know Hasna's condition. Even just now he clearly heard what the doctor said about the woman's condition. It's just that he did not want to interfere and respond to the situation of Hasna who was in a coma.

"Hasna's... Hasna is in a coma. Pray for the best for her, because she is also in a young pregnant state." Answer Mr. Andi.

"Innalilahi, astaghfirullahal'adzim, Hasna." Said Miss Rosita. The middle-aged woman did not pay much attention to the doctor's explanation earlier, because she was getting a phone call from one of her friends.

Two men in nurse uniforms pushed Hasna's bed. The woman will soon be moved in a room that had been occupied before, but with more intensive care. Everyone there followed him from behind.

Rama strode with gontai following them, as if carrying a very heavy burden on both shoulders. His steps felt so heavy.

A soft clap on his shoulder, made Rama turn his head, and found Kevin smiling at him.

"Kevin?" Rama is a little surprised by Kevin's presence in the hospital.

"You, right here?" Ask Rama.

Kevin just smiled in a knot at the man he had just met last night.

"I was here more than half an hour ago. Do I look like an astral creature? To the extent that you are unaware of my existence." Chuckles Kevin. The man was just trying to entertain in the midst of the chaos of Rama's mind.

"Sorry, I really don't know." Said Rama who felt he had ignored the existence of someone who had been instrumental in saving his wife.

"Look easy."

The two walked together in silence, arriving in front of Hasna's treatment room. All waited outside before the doctor gave her permission to visit the woman.

"For a while, let the patient rest. The patient needs peace." Doctor Say.

"Then, when can I see my wife, Doctor?" Ask Rama.

"You can see it as usual. As I said earlier, a patient who is in a coma, may have a member of his movement not functioning for a while. But his senses can still feel. The hearing is still functioning properly, as is the case when the patient is in good health. You can still invite patients to communicate, even if the patient cannot respond later. But, it's one way to cultivate the patient's spirit to get back to health." Papar Doctor.

"Just have the patient chat like you usually do. May this therapy succeed, and make the patient aware of the coma. The patient desperately needs your support, the people closest to him."

The doctor's speech a little bit makes Rama again have great hopes for the recovery of the wife. Especially when remembering if the woman is pregnant with the fruits of their first love.

Netra Rama followed the steps of the doctor who was getting away, then berali in the nursery of the wife.

"Remember one thing, you're not fighting alone here. There's us too." Rama looked at Kevin. The man's words really made his hopes even greater. That's right what Kevin said. It's not alone here. There is also his family who always accompany him in difficult times like today.

"Thank you, thank you very much, because again you remind me. You're right, I shouldn't be this fragile and desperate. Our wives and children-to-be need tough men to protect them." Rama. Kevin nodded in agreement with Rama's words. The man looks optimistic now.

"For sure the woman who will be your companion will be very lucky, because getting a man who is not only tough, but also wise." Rama patted Kevin on the shoulder several times, amazed at the wisdom of the younger man.

"Don't exaggerate. If I had experienced the same thing as you right now, I'm not sure if it would be as fresh as now, I would have been as fragile as you." Said Kevin. Both of them smiled.

"If you knew, Rama. There is no need for me to imagine being in your position like this. Because in fact, I was fragile with Hasna's condition. Hasna was no one to me, but Hasna was the woman who made me feel the sweetness of love, even if only for a moment. Come to your senses, Hasna. You will definitely not like to see your favorite man absorbent this. Don't make it look weird in other people's eyes. Wake up. Struggle. Live happily."

Tomi waited for Siska's arrival with a bit of uneasiness. Shortly after the arrival of two policemen to Marissa's room, Tomi's mind is a little muddled. He needs friends to discuss, just ask for advice.

"Sori, the road is pretty jammed." Say Siska who disperse Tomi's daydream.

Tomi reports the incident in Marissa's room and asks her best friend to meet her at the cafe opposite the hospital. Tomi needs a friend to talk to and find a way out of the problems Marissa is facing. Not only is Marissa's problem now, but it's also been her problem as well, since they're now husband and wife. Moreover, Marissa was containing her flesh and blood.

Siska positioned herself sitting before Tomi. There was clearly a look of worry on that sweet face. Hearing the news if Marissa was dragged into a legal case, has made her think no-no.

"Where's the story?" Todong Siska was straight to the point.

"So morning, when I got back from the cafeteria, two policemen were already in Marissa's room. They said they received a report of the accident, which left the victim in critical condition." Tomi.

Siska covered her mouth with her hands. The woman did not expect if yesterday's accident ended like this. Moreover, Rama Suryanata's wife who became his victim, his condition is critical.

"God, Rama's wife is critical?" Ask Siska to make sure.

"Yes." Yeah."

"And actually I've predicted something like this will happen, given who the Suryanata family is. I'm not going to get in the way of legal proceedings, let alone Marissa obviously being guilty here. But I'm very sorry about Marissa's current condition. Especially after the heavy bleeding." Tomi. The man's gaze glared far, imagining the fate of the child in Marissa's womb, if the woman actually served the sentence.

Siska breathed out her heavy breath. Not only Tomi who is in the midst of Marissa's problems, but herself as well. Siska already considers Marissa not only as a friend, but a brother. It's hard to be happy that they've been together all this time.

"How about now?" Tomi shook her head slowly. His mind is completely dead-end.

Silent.

"Would I just try to see Rama Suryanata, huh?" Tomi said, as if asking for advice. Then he looked at Siska who was staring at him.

"Can too. You can talk to Rama about Marissa's condition. Yeah, although I'm not sure if he'll drop his demands. But at least, we'll try." Siska responded.

"Yes, I'll see Rama later. Coincidentally, his wife is being treated in this hospital as well."

"Ah, yes. Why did I forget?" Siska completely forgot that Marissa and Hasna were in the same hospital.

"Factor of age." Chirp Tomi.

"Ah, fuck you. I don't think we're the same age" Siska said.

"Yes, we are the same age, but I'm a prospective father. Elo lah? Bini candidate status also belom tau change when." Ledek Tomi, Then the man laughed.
