Marsha actually followed Abraham's advice to the Hospital. Not to check himself with various health complaints. Except Marsha went to the Hospital to do a visa. The visa itself is a written report issued by a health care provider based on examination of victims of physical, mental, and sexual violence.
"I've had a visa before, Bram," said Marsha, who is still walking after Abraham at the Hospital.
"When?" ask Abraham.
The confession Marsha spoke this time left Abraham gasping. If Marsha has ever done a visa, it means that Marsha has previously received acts of violence from her husband.
"Before I get out of the house" replied Marsha.
Yes, after being forced into intercourse by her own husband. Marsha chose to go to the Hospital and do a visa. Not expecting only a few weeks, Marsha had to return to the Hospital and return to do a visa.
"Why so many weeks and you didn't tell me at all" Abraham replied in the end.
At the Hospital, the two waited for a moment before Marsha's name was called. Though anxious, Marsha braced herself to be able to perform the visa and examination procedures she had to undergo again today.
Fortunately, not waiting too long, Marsha's name began to be called, and Abraham also entered and accompanied Arsyilla to follow the examination procedure.
"Patient's name?" ask the doctor who was examining Marsha.
"Marsha Valentina" he answered briefly.
"Why do a visa for what?" ask the doctor.
Before answering, Marsha looked to Abraham first. Realizing the anxiety that Marsha might be experiencing right now, Abraham opened his voice and answered the question from the Doctor.
"Want to report domestic violence to the police" Abraham replied.
The man looks calm. In answering the gesture Abraham's body was very calm. All Abraham did was to simply be next to Marsha and continue to accompany the woman.
The doctor then scrunched his forehead, not thinking if the visa was done was to report a case of abuse. With the help of a nurse, start recording the pulse, blood pressure, see the visible wound or bruise outside, and record it.
"When did it happen?" ask the doctor again.
"Maybe an hour ago" said Marsha.
There was a faint nod from the Doctor while noting the answer from Marsha. Then the doctor looks grimacing, as if enduring the pain of seeing the corner of Marsha's lips are bleeding, her neck is reddened, there are nail scratches also on the neck and chin.
Not only checking, the doctor also gave a prescription in the form of drugs and ointments to reduce bruising.
"Would you do an X-ray to look at the underlying tissue in the skin that might have been injured?" ask the Doctor.
"If I have done that X-ray and other checks, Doc.. if now only these injuries," said Marsha.
"Oh, so how long has the KDRT been going on?" ask the doctor again.
"Last month" said Marsha.
"If the patient feels excessive restlessness, and also feels a fickle feeling of the heart, and the symptoms that lead to depression, I recommend visiting a psychologist. So that it will be handled also mentally," explained the Doctor.
"Well .. I'll make her medical records. Acts of physical violence to women can be subject to two articles at once, namely criminal articles and articles of protection of women and children. You're a victim of physical violence that leads to sexual violence right?" ask the doctor.
"I .. Yes Doc" said Marsha.
"The culprit?" ask the doctor.
"My own husband" replied Marsha.
The doctor nodded his head, and immediately made a medical record for Marsha. Hopefully, the medical record of the results of this visa can be attached and provide the appropriate punishment for Melvin Andrian.
After getting medical records, paying visa fees, and taking drugs. Marsha and Abraham return to their apartment. Several times Abraham seemed to glance at Marsha who had just been silent.
“Marsha,” call Abraham to the woman sitting by his side.
Feeling called her name, Marsha turned her head to look at Abraham who was still driving the car.
“What's your wound?” ask Abraham this time.
Although indeed Marsha did not tell everything clearly. But Abraham believed the wound in Marsha's heart was deep. Wounds that could have caused trauma to Marsha.
The woman smiled bitterly and shook her head, for now there was no need for Abraham to know as deep as his wound. Let Abraham see it with his own glasses. Marsha will try to solve this problem first. Marsha did not want Abraham to be pitying her. Let him know and feel how deep the wound in his heart is.
"Take me, Marsha," Abraham said.
Abraham really wanted to know how deep the wounds facing Marsha today. Why now Marsha can act more calm.
"You don't need to know, Bram .. I'm definitely hurt" Marsha said.
"May I accompany you at the trial later?" ask Abraham again.
Yes, this time Abraham wanted to be next to Marsha. At the trial, Abraham also wanted to be present and provide moral support for Marsha.
"No need, Bram .. I don't want Melvin to meet you" Marsha replied in the end.
"Why?" ask Abraham who seemed to ask for an explanation from Marsha.
The woman shook her head again, "Let me face it alone. It's too dangerous for Melvin to meet you and your identity to be out there. Let you stay safe" Marsha replied.
This time Marsha no longer wants to take risks. Let him endure it all. Marsha did not want a new commotion that could have disturbed Abraham's life. Let his life be disturbed and become public consumption. For Abraham, Marsha would not have the heart to let such a good man become a public moon.
"But, Sha," replied Abraham again.
"Just calm down, Bram .. I'm fine. After the trial, I'll see you later" Marsha said.
"Promise?" ask Abraham.
Marsha nodded her head, "Yes, after the hearing. I'll meet you. Just let me show up. You don't have to. Enjoy this safe and comfortable life of yours, Bram," Marsha said.
"For what is life safe and peaceful if I am not by your side, Sha" Abraham replied.
For Abraham as if there is no meaning of a safe and comfortable life if Marsha is not there beside him. If he himself can't keep Marsha. Even though Abraham did not mind if his quiet life was disturbed as long as he could be beside Marsha and take care of the woman who always filled his heart.
"So you're going to the trial by yourself?" ask Abraham.
"Yes, alone," replied Marsha.
"Alright .. up to you. It's just that once the trial is over, meet me, Marsha. I want to be where you share and lean. Do not cry in front of others. If you have to cry, cry in front of me" said Abraham.
It was a sincere and earnest speech. Abraham did not want Marsha to cry in front of other men or people. Abraham himself will hold every tear of Marsha, and also give peace to the woman.
