THE CONQUEROR (One Body of Two Souls)

ONE HUNDRED AND SIX

Shortly after Seruni was transferred to the treatment room, she finally opened her eyes. There is nothing serious, only the condition of his body is weak. Seruni spread her gaze throughout the room and found many people surrounding her. Yes, right now mama Amara, Faya, Ghea, Ega, Ruli and Reksa were standing next to Seruni's gurney when they saw there was movement on the bed. While Mbah Suro was still sitting quietly on the sofa.

"I'm not a killer, I'm not a killer!" Seruni hysterically while smothering both ears with both hands. Everyone who was there was stunned. Seruni felt that the people around her were shouting at her as a murderer.

"Run, hey, it's mama son. Hicks. hyx.." Mama Amara tried to hug her son to calm him down.

"I'm not a killer, no! I'm not a killer."

"Run hey, no one thinks of you as a killer." Faya. "See us Run, look at us. We are your friends. We'll always be there for you."

"I'm not a killer. I'm not a killer."

"Sir!" Seru Reksa intends for his father to intervene.

Slowly Mbah Suro got up then stepped closer to the gurney. They all chose to retreat to make room for Mbah Suro. So did Mama Amara who immediately unraveled her embrace.

Mbah Suro's hand stretched out to touch the Seruni crown that still looked frightened. Mbah Suro's eyes closed as he muttered the prayers in his heart. Not long ago Seruni began to calm down again. Mbah Suro immediately released Seruni's body.

"What's wrong, he's just in shock. After waking up, she will no longer be hysterical." Mbah Suro.

"Thank you Mbah." Mama Amara said sincerely.

"This is a lesson for all of us. Wherever we are, never take anything that is not ours." Mbah Suro circulated his gaze towards the friends of Seruni. They all seem to be nodding at the same time. "Now I say goodbye. There's still a lot of work I haven't finished."

"Yes, thank you again for your help." Mama Amara said again.

"Come Rek!" Mbah Suro stepped out of the Seruni treatment room followed by the heavy-hearted Mutual. Not only was his heart heavy, but also his footsteps felt heavy to leave Seruni who was in a bad state.

"Don't worry too much." Mbah Suro patted his son's shoulder. "He'll be fine." Mbah Suro knows very well the state of his son's heart at this time. But to avoid unwanted things like slander for example as thrown by papa and his om Alfa who was told by Reksa, Mbah Suro chose to take his son away as soon as possible. Mama Amara and her four best friends. But not long after, Ghea, Ega and Ruli also resigned. And now there's only one Amara and Faya mama left.

"You didn't go home Fa? Auntie is not alone here."

Faya shakes. "I will always be next to Seruni Tan. I'm sure when I realize Seruni needs me."

By late afternoon just as the doctors and nurses made their visit, Seruni had regained consciousness. But Seruni just stared with a blank look, making Mama Amara's heart feel slashed to see the condition of her son. Not only his heart was slashed, his heart was also throbbing pain. But Mama Amara tried hard. Don't let himself fall.

"Have the patient been conscious for a long time?" Ask the doctor.

"Last noon I was conscious, doc, but I went back to sleep." Answer mama Amara.

"Alright, there's nothing to worry about. It's just that the patient still looks shocked at the passing of her husband." Obviously the doctor knew because Seruni was admitted to the same hospital as her late husband.

After the doctor's visit that afternoon, Faya asked for permission for Amara's mother to go home for a while to clean up. He promised to come back later tonight.

Her night...

It's true that Seruni is no longer hysterical like this afternoon. But since then Seruni did not stop crying until as much as he pleased. "I'm evil!" Lirih Seruni's. "I've changed my husband's life for my freedom." Smashed again.

"Srsttt! It's not like that Run." Faya rubbed his best friend's shoulder. Faya grabbed a tissue to wipe Seruni's tears. "You didn't know it would end up like this either. So stop blaming yourself."

Mama Amara who was on the sofa secretly eavesdropped on the conversation of Seruni and Faya. Although his eyes closed, but his ears he set wide.

"Papa Zaky must hate me so much Fa, hiks.."

"Ssttt! Let it. Don't think too much. Now the most important thing is to focus on your health to get out of the hospital immediately." This time Seruni nodded. It is true, only Faya can calm Seruni. Even after Seruni was freed from the snares of Nyi Sukmawati though. Mama Amara was unable to calm her son. Faya's lucky to be staying at the hospital tonight.
