The Love of Doctor

Extra Part

The aroma of medicine was so stinging in Erik's current sense of smell, accompanied by the ticking of the clock that soon entered at dawn, he remained awake beside the bed of the wife. His eyes were hard to shut even for a moment. He was tired but it was hard to do it.

The drugs that got into Ella's body made her sleep too long. His wife had not opened her eyes since she was taken to the hospital. The doctor said Ella's condition had improved.

Now that Erik is sitting alone in the treatment room, his children have been asked to go home. They have their own family, so it should not be, it disturbs the peace of the family of his son.

Maura, who was insistent, wanted to accompany him, he asked to go home. He was joking, answering Alby's cold no one warmed him. After that, his son complied and went home.

Erik looked at Ella's face which still looked pale. Tracing every inch of his wife's face, which he said was still as beautiful as when he was young. The corner of her lips pulled to the side when she found the wrinkles on Ella's face were getting clearer. “When do you wake up, honey?” whisper next to Ella's ear. His hand moved to fix Ella's haircut, “then I was also like this,” he said.

“But, your hair is still beautiful, jet black, long unravel. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to enjoy old with you.” Erik paused again his words. His hands now turned attractive and tidied up the blanket that was actually perfectly covered Ella's body.

“Don't you want to see our kids happy? That's what you often say to me before bed. But, if you look at it from there .. You can't be with me, Yang! So, get up first! We see it together here.” Erik rubbed his tears that had just dripped, he did not want to be like this, looking weak, crybaby he should be able to get through this. He was sure his wife would wake up again for him.

Erik placed his head on the back of Ella's hand, his eyes still not separated from the beautiful face of the wife. Nearly twenty minutes in this position, he could now feel Ella's fingers moving. He lifted his head, looking at Ella who was trying to open her eyes.

Erik smiled faintly, preparing to greet Ella with a calming expression. “Honey, don't move much first!” reprimanded, when Ella was about to remove the breathing apparatus.

Ella smiled faintly at him, she remained determined to take off the breathing apparatus. “I've worried you, yes .. forgive me,” said Ella, her voice sounded hoarse powerless. “sleep! You must be tired too.” His request to Erik. But, Erik ignored her, he was still silent on the chair beside the bed.

“Which still hurts?” he asked, touching Ella's chest.

“I'm all right. It must be because you took good care of me. Look at! Now your face looks exhausted!” Ella gently rubbed her husband's cheek which still displayed a smile.

“Ehm, you made me almost die!” erik said, remembering what happened a few hours ago.

Ella fell silent. He recalled the incident before he was pinned down and rushed to the hospital. There are things that make the condition like this. He read the news through his cell phone. If, Naura is involved in an affair scandal with her client.

Ella was so shocked by the news, she needed an explanation from anyone who knew. Especially when Naura's phone could not be contacted, she was increasingly worried about the rumors circulating.

“How about Naura, Mas, is she okay?” Ella was increasingly worried about Naura's condition when she remembered that.

Ella let out a sigh of relief. “I hope Naura doesn't become a household destroyer of people. I'd feel like a failure if it really happened.”

Erik shook his head, "you're the best. Sleep again! It's still dark!” Erik's orders.

“Just I woke up? Is this not what you want? I woke up from my long sleep ..” Ella said. “Why now just ask me to sleep.”

Erik chuckled, then went up to the edge of the bed sitting sideways facing Ella. “I just don't want your mind going anywhere. Just think about your health, so that we can welcome the presence of our grandchildren,” he explained.

“Who else is pregnant? Why do you call him grandkids?” Ella was getting curious, she would not sleep until she got a definite answer.

“Iya, our daughter. Soon will be mother.”

“Maura? She came too?”

Erik nodded in response to Ella's question. “Alhamdulillah, she deserves to be happy with the person she loves.”

“Emm .. take care of your health yes, so that we can count how many grandchildren we will have.”

“Mas, don't forget. We will not continue to be young either. No matter how strong our love farewell will still happen.”

Erik stared fixedly at Ella, his eyes glazed over. He knew his wife's words were true. Sooner or later death will separate them. He then shifted Ella's body slightly, laying down her body next to his wife. Hugged him tightly, as if he was really going to part at that very instant.

"I hope we'll be reunited soon after death." Ella spoke softly beside her husband's ear. Then a faint smile, which was able to turn Erik's face back radiant.
