The Flower of Mayu

Doctor David

Starting at night, Nia said goodbye.

"Ma, Nia's home."

"Why not stay?" with teary eyes.

"Other times, yes." smiled broadly while kissing the back of Diana's hand, Mama Deny.

***

"Thank you for coming" Deny said as Nia was about to get into her car.

"Together," smiled wryly,

After exiting Deny's house, Nia was able to breathe a sigh of relief.

"Honestly, it hurts me a lot."

Suddenly Nia's car felt uncomfortable, she stopped by the side of the road and got out of the car to check it.

"Well, less wind."

While tracing her waist Nia saw the tire of her car that began to deflate. Nia intends to get into the car and there is a car speeding up, along with opening the door of her car, Nia was dragged by the car.

"Yahoo!" Nia fell onto the asphalt and her barefoot was also bruised.

"Sorry, ma'am." The driver who grazed Nia got out of his car and approached Nia

"Yes, be careful next time." Nia tried to stand up.

"Once again sorry, let me take you to the hospital for treatment."

"No need, it's not too bad."

"Sorry again!" bowing her back, Nia smiled.

***

"Assalamu'alaikum," Nia entered the house.

"It!" Mama Nia approached Nia who was walking limped.

"Where have you been? Why feet?" with an anxious face

"Skewer a car, Ma. Just a little scuff."

"Slightly said? Come sit!"

Mama Nia called a Hospital and asked the Doctor to go to her house.

"Jeez Mama, it doesn't have to be that."

"You'll get infected later, you're already sick, you're with Mama."

Nia chuckles, Mama Nia helps Nia towards her room.

It didn't take long, the doctor came.

"Good night, Mom. I'm David, assigned by the hospital to fulfill Mom's call."

"Night, please go to my son's room. Come on," Mama Nia leads Doctor David.

"Good night, ma'am." said David.

"Good night, Doctor." Nia put a wet washcloth into the basin.

"Please check it out, Doc. I'll make you a drink first."

"Good, Mom. Thanks."

"Sorry Doctor, my mom is overreacting. It's just a regular wound."

"If it's not treated soon, the wound will be infected, ma'am."

"Huh? That bad?" Nia does not believe.

David nodded and began to treat Nia's leg wound, the last stage in the bandage.

Next morning.

"Noah!"

Nia who had just finished from the bathroom was surprised to find her best friend, Dinda, sitting while looking at her face.

"Dinda, when's it coming?"

"Thus. Why didn't you call me?!"

"Cup cup, don't bend like that. I'll pinch her cheek" Nia sat next to Dinda.

"Yes done! I was freaking out when your mom called me and said you were in an accident, I could!"

"Gosh Mama. I'm just a minor injury, really."

"Hump!"

***

"What do you want to eat? I ordered this."

"I've had breakfast, haven't you had breakfast yet?"

"It has. I'll be here until your mom gets home,"

"Have your parents permission?"

"It has. I'm still getting married for a long time, though,"

"Did it hurt?" dinda asked, Nia shook her head.

Hearing the sound of a car entering the yard, Dinda immediately looked from the window of Nia's room.

"There is a doctor" said Dinda.

"Eh? It must be Mama who told him to."

"Please open the door." pinta Nia.

"Okay!"

"Good morning, Mom."

"For the Doctor,"

"Doctor, did my mom ask the doctor to come here?"

"Rubber, Ma. Introduce, I'm David, the doctor who'll take care of you until you get well."

"I'm Nia, thank you Doctor."

"Nia, there's one question from me,"

Nia meenby.

"Why are you here?"

Nia gulped.

"Emmm... Meanin?"

"Dad! Obviously, dong, why are you here and not at your husband's house?" Dinda sat next to Nia who was being examined.

"Ssttt! I answered Nanti, there is a doctor now" whispered Nia.

"But I can't help it anymore, I've been holding back this curiosity."

Nia sighed, she whispered again.

"I... I've been on talak." whispered slowly.

"Did?!!" Dinda with a surprised face look spontaneously glared,

"Group!"

"Sorry Doctor, my friend is like this" smiled stiffly.

"It's okay, Miss Nia."

Doctor David reinserted his equipment and prepared to leave. As he was about to exit the room he stopped his steps and turned to face Nia.

"I'm very concerned, Miss Nia" he said politely and left Nia's room.

"Well, did he hear it?" Nia wonder.

"And he's got ears" Dinda timpal casually said.

"Yes you know, but I've lowered my voice just now,"

"Yes the point is that the doctor's ear is not budge. Let's tell you now, why my best friend is on the talaq, how insolent that guy is."

Nia took a deep breath before telling a story, as she tearfully told her what had happened to her.

"Well, that's a caterpillar why did you guys just get married, huh?" Dinda did not accept it.

"He's not entirely wrong,"

Nia laughed softly at Dinda who kept nagging even cursing Lila.

A week passed.

Nia who had fully recovered finally returned to work. The warm greeting of his employees slightly reduced the burden of his mind.

"Woah, what a rame yes," said one of the employees.

"Yes, along with Bu Nia who returned to health, visitors also increased."

One of Nia's employees saw her customers gossiping, like a magnet was pulling her, she slowly approached to eavesdrop.

"Sound no?"

"What's wrong?"

"That's the son of one of the big cafe owners in this city is getting engaged again."

"Aren't you married? Doesn't this store belong to his wife?"

"No idea, yesterday my son saw on the IG there's news."

"Well, don't want polygamy."

"Yes maybe"

Mendegar that Nia employees directly report to Nia.

"That's it, Mom."

"Ooohhh, thank you for the info. Please go back to work, "with a smile

His smile slowly faded as his employees had walked out of his room. Her tears flowed from the corner of her eyes, she took a breath and smiled.

"It's okay Nia, you need to be self-conscious, okay. Work spirit!!"
