The Heart that Chose
Chapter 27
Fatimah was treated for her condition.
"Things take your wife home, son, pity her"
"No ma'am, let me wait for you"
"Let Khalid and Sherin wait for me, you'll be promil darling".
"Let me be the same as Khalid who's waiting for her" Sherin is happy to have a chance with Khalid.
"That's mom, take me home now bang"
"I'm the only one who takes delivery, I want to take my needs because". Sherin deliberately wants to take Syafina because she will not let Khalid and Syafina alone tonight.
"Yes, just like Sherin" Syafina said.
"No way, Syafina has to stay. She's a nurse, so she knows how to take care of the sick. Fina also knew the doctor at this hospital"
"But I want to accompany mom bang" said Sherina.
"You know how to take care of sick people, there are also you make sick mothers !"
"Khalid don't say that, Sherin didn't mean it".
"You can only wait for two patients, so you have to go home or sleep outside if you want"
"Khal, why are you so rude as Sherin. Yes Sherin you go home. Let Fina be with Khalid here"
"Yes ma'am" Sherina was disappointed by Fatimah's decision. Finally he came home too but not to Khalid's house, he went home to Fatimah's mother's house.
Khalid and Syafina sat on the sofa in the room. Fatimah is asleep.
"Jet sleep let me take care of mom, tomorrow's brother has to work"
"Oh yes Fin, what picket tomorrow ?" ask Khalid.
"It's supposed to be night, if mom hasn't changed, I can let her bang"
"I hope tomorrow I'm better"
"May bang"
"Fin, brother has a request for you"
"What request is bang ?"
"Can you not have the same schedule Arsya, if there is the same schedule you just like your friends"
"God's Insha can bang, I'm working on"
"Promise me, you don't like being around her"
"Yes my brother, ishh very jealous of my husband". Syafina pinched her husband's nose.
"Sleep bang", Syafina took pity on seeing her husband who looked soybean.
"There is no sleep pillow"
"It's a pillow, let's go to sleep" Syafina pointed at her lap. Khalid then lay on Syafina's lap, feeling very comfortable for her to be able to indulge with Syafina. Syafina rubbed her husband's hair. Khalid finally fell asleep.

At two o'clock in the morning a nurse knocked on the door,
"Shut up", Shafina lowered Khalid's head which was wrapped in his thigh with a heart, she was afraid that Khalid would wake up. Then he opened the door.
"Sorry sister Fina, there's an injection schedule"
"Yes please".
The nurse also injected Fatimah.
"This is my brother's in-law"
"Yes deck, thank you"
"Same sister, I'm sorry" the nurse came out.
Syafina took off her jacket she was wearing and covered it with her husband. Syafina sat down again, and she lifted Khalid's head up on her lap.
"Sorry Fina bang, Fina has not given the right brother" Syafina stroked Khalid's hair, then she kissed her husband's forehead. Suddenly Khalid woke up.
"You nyium brother? " Khalid rubbed his eyes.
"No" Syafina felt so embarrassed about being caught kissing her husband. Face reddened.
"Abang felt earlier"
"Bag dream times"
"No, not a dream. It clearly feels. How do you not want to say Fin? "
"Here you go, sleep again" Syafina rubbed her husband's hair again.
"Didn't it hurt Fin, replace you who slept yes"
"Anything, I'm used to staying up late taking care of patients".
"Please change" Khalid woke up and pulled Syafina into his lap.
Syafina was lying on her husband's lap. Khalid stroked her hair.
"This child ?"
Syafina nodded
"Sleep, you must also rest" Khalid stroked his wife's long hair again. And finally Syafina who was tired fell asleep.
****
"Khal, Khalid" Fatimah called her son, but Khalid did not hear it.
"Khalid"
Syafina heard him wake up, because she was used to hearing patients calling.
"What's wrong" Syafina approached her in-laws.
"Mom's stomach mules, nausea also intersects with WC Fin"
Fina then guided Fatimah to the WC, after she finished and then guided her in-laws back to bed. Then he reset the infusion that was stopped. Then Syafina rubbed her mother-in-law's stomach and back with eucalyptus oil.
"Sleep back mom, if you have nausea or mules again just call Fina."
"Yes Fin, thank you"
"Lucky Khalid got a good wife like Syafina, I didn't choose a daughter-in-law wrong. Already beautiful, kind, friendly, her nature was also meek" Fatimah spoke in her heart.
Shafina returned to the Sofa when she saw Khalid sleeping in a sitting position, Syafina then changed Khalid's position to lie on his lap again, He himself did not sleep.
At home, Syafina is easy to fall asleep, it is because she is tired after her activities in the hospital, but when she is working at the hospital she sleeps only one or two hours even able to sleep all night. After the dawn of the Adhan, Shafina awoke Khalid.
"Kok Abanh who sleeps on your lap Fin? "
"I feel sorry to see my husband sleep sitting, so let my husband sleep on my lap. Pray first brother"
They also prayed alternately, then Syafina woke up Fatimah and helped her father-in-law ablaze.
Khalid was happy to see Syafina taking good care of her mother. He felt very grateful to have a wife like Syafina.
****
Khalid went home to pick up her clothes and Syafina's clothes, at home he didn't see Sherin.
"Bi Lastri, where's Sherin? "
"He didn't come home, sir"
"O yes, auntie prepared hot water in a thermos for me to bring to the hospital"
"Yes sir".
Khalid was ready, all the necessary items were in place and he returned to the hospital.
Khalid ordered food for him and Syafina from his restaurant, then he called Dendi saying he didn't go to work today.
Khalid fed his mother with porridge from the hospital.
"Mother next time don't eat food bought by the side of the road, this mother becomes sick"
"Yes Khal, next time the mother is more hearted. O yes Sherin why not come back here again huh, did he not wake up Khal? "
"Last night he didn't come home to me mom, maybe he went home to mommy's".
Khalid fed his mother until the porridge ran out, and Sherin came.
"Mom, I'm sorry Sherin ya" she cried
"It's okay, don't cry"
"Other times the heart gives the mother food" Khalid said with a ketus.
"Yes bang", while Sherina did deliberately put something into the sweet martabak last night, so Fatimah was sick so Khalid could not get close to his wife.
"Have you done your job, here is me and Syafina who take care of your mother"
"I'm saying goodbye to clinic now, ma'am". Sherin actually still wants to be there.
"Yes Sherin, you just work" Fatimah added.
Sherina then walked out of the room. He felt that he was not wanted there.
Eleven o'clock in the afternoon the doctor came for the visit. He examined Fatimah's condition and asked her for her complaint.
"How many times did she vomit and have her diarrhea this morning?"
"Only once sir" replied Khalid.
"If you no longer vomit and diarrhea, Fatimah's mother can go home later in the afternoon"
"Yes sir". replied Khalid. After that, the doctor came out.
Someone knocked on the door, it turned out to be Reyhan. He's wearing his work uniform because today Reyhan's picket morning.
"How are you, mom bang? "
"It's improved Rey"
"Mas Dendi told me that mom was sick, so I'm here"
"Yes, thanks Rey"
Syafina sat on the couch, she just kept quiet and did not talk to her husband and Rey.
"Sefni how is Rey" asked Fatimah
"Thank God, ma'am, eat a lot. But yes it's still limp too."
"It looks like Khalid's bang family is quite familiar with Rey's sister's family" Syafina said in her heart.
