The House in the Middle of Sawah

Erni didn't come to visit

I woke up in a white room. Slowly my consciousness recovered. My left hand was stuck in an infusion tube. While my right hand was bandaged. It started to feel all over my body sore, sick, like I was about to fall out my bones. It looks like I'm in one of the hospital rooms. I fell asleep in a chair on my left.

"Buukkk. .", call me.

Although my voice was slow, Ibuk immediately regained his senses, opened his eyes and looked a smile, relieved.

"Thank God lee. .you wes banguunnn, .", Ibuk glazed.

"Where is buk?", I asked to be sure, where am I now.

"You were at Lee Hospital.Yesterday afternoon you had an accident", Ibuk explained.

"You were unconscious all night lee" continued Ibuk.

The clock on the wall, nine o'clock, the window on the right emits sunlight, meaning it's nine in the morning. I nodded in understanding.

"Oiya, what's my bike? Which sister then? kok ibuk dewean", I asked, curious.

"Sister in the same house Father. Lek your motorbike yes ajuurr, now it is still in the Police. Sek didn't call the doctor first huh", Ibuk half ran out of the room.

A few minutes later, I returned with a nurse. Behind them were men in white coats, surely the doctor. After checking on me for a while, the nurse and the doctor left me with Ibuk. I still feel weak and weak. My mother advised me to sleep. I haven't closed my eyes yet, the door to the room is open. Febi walked in slowly and after looking at me, she slightly ran over to my bed. Behind Febi was Nita, Hasan and a few other friends. I had hoped that Erni would appear at that time, but it turned out that in the group that visited me this time there was no figure. Honestly, I'm a little disappointed.

"Ibus .", said Febi, kissing Ibuk's hand. Mother smiled.

"Daann. . .you, don't pa pa?", Febi looked at me, seeing her eyes twitching.

"Kok nangiss, lha wong Dani wes looks healthy, handsome kayak gini kok", kelakar Hasan from behind.

Hasan approached me, and patted Febi on the shoulder.

"Where's gaess?", Hasan smiled as he greeted me.

"Aman gaes, the usual jipi moto racer fell iku", I tried to make the atmosphere more cheerful.

The other friends smiled, coming closer to me. Nita put a basket of fruits on the table. Some friends asked me the chronology of how I got into this accident. I explained the incident but the part I saw the strange appearance I did not tell. Let it be my secret.

I thought back to Erni, why she didn't look at me at all. Does he no longer care about me? Thinking about it makes my heart hurt. I'm determined when I'm cured I'll see Erni. Explain what really happened between me and Febi. And I will express my feelings to Erni. No matter what the reaction or the response from him, I don't care. My heart hurts too much to hold this feeling for too long. I have to make it clear. I like Erni.

"Gaes, how dumb? Not-don't touch it", Hasan patted my left hand slowly.

I smiled, I still felt weak. Seeing me like that Hasan understood, and gave the code to the other friends to go home immediately, so that I could rest. Everyone understood and agreed, after Hasan said goodbye and prayed for my recovery. Febi was the last to leave.

"Cepet healed Dann, if you need anything call me" Febi rubbed my arm. I nodded slowly.

Today I spent my time recovering, I slept more. Sometimes I wake up and I see I'm busy knitting wool yarn. Ah, if Erni were to accompany me at this time, maybe I would recover faster. Seen from the window frame, the sun slowly sank, as if reluctant to leave me expecting your arrival. . .Erni.
