The Other Me

H-1

" Let me be a brother." said Ronald, he took the napan from Harna and headed for Ar's room.

Entering the room, he is confused by an infusion hanging on one side of Ar's bed.

" Sister Ronald.." Ar's voice.

" Yes, why were you infused?" ask Ronald full search.

" Bi Ar's body is weak especially aunt rarely drink water, so in addition to fever because of the rain, aunt also dehydrated ko, Tan came as papa Herman denger from mama Harna's personal doctor, Tan knew it was Om Ronald nanya mama Harna but yesterday mama Harna did not hear the results from the doctor so did not know.." explained Tristan, Tristan, he does not lie just a little cover up so it is not wrong.

" Tan, if it comes up to you, Om's shocked..." Honestly, Ronald, he was shocked to hear Tristan's voice from the other side of the room.

" Om just focused on auntie.." circus Tristan. He wakes up and washes his face in Ar's bathroom. Out of the dang took the nap that Ronald brought.

" You're taken." Ronald protested.

" It's mine..."

" Take it, Om bring it to your aunt..."

" Our auntie wants to throw up, that fried rice includes heavy meals for auntie..."

" Sister come out, Ar wants to rest." drive out Ar.

" Why was my brother expelled?"

" Ar's head hurts, brother mending go, noisily tau..." Said Ar. Ronald resignedly according to, of course he did not want his brother to get sick because he made a commotion in the room.

" Yeah, brother to take ya.." said Ronald and left.

" Bi, what do you want to eat? Tan asked Emelia's doctor, saying she could eat something light that didn't make her vomit, so what would she eat?" ask Tristan at length.

" Potatoes..."

Tok tok tok tok

" Bi, we want to go to school." Aaron's voice.

" On deck, unlocked." replied Tristann after seeing Ar smile.

" Aunty okay?"

" Is anyone still sick?"

" Aunty don't worry us..."

" Cheal quickly bi..."

" Aunty should be healthy tomorrow, later auntie who got the first cut of me..."

The five do not want to lose scrambling to ask while jostling who stands the most dual with their aunt.

" Aunty is okay, you don't have to worry about your aunt, aunt is healthy, aunt tomorrow is still coming, the youngest nephew of the most cute aunt is not coming, aunty is not coming, I am ready for another gift." replied Ar to them all.

" What's the prize?" ask Win with sparkling eyes.

" If you know it will not be a surprise." continued Tristan who had just heard.

" Not yet to go, it's late..." The voice of Ar again.

They take turns peeping Ar's cheeks, then pampit school.

This afternoon was raised by the noise he knew.

Eengg, Ar's voice that came out because it was disturbed.

The whole room froze, turned to the voice earlier, breathing a sigh of relief because the owner of the voice just squirms. Return the focus noisily without realizing.

" Sister..." Call Ar with a hoarse voice between waking up and the flu.

" Dek, wake up and eat first, brother..." Rian managed to snatch the porridge from Harna's hands.

Ar shakes.

" Don't fight the deck, again the pain should need extra energy, come on.." forced Rian. Rian was stubborn.

" Ri, you're nothing to Ar.." Harna protested.

" Yes made for Ar just what a hard thing..." Reply Rian.

At present, Ar's room is filled with Harna, Fitri, Rian, and Tristan who were also sleeping but were awakened by Harna. Exactly, the porridge belonged to Tristan, Harna did not allow Tristan to eat greasy food because ever since he opened his eyes, Tristan kept coughing.

" It's okay, brother." said Ar.

Harna who heard that was silent and left immediately after Ar received the first bribe.

In the fifth bribe Ar had already refused. " A little more deck, not even half a loh..."

" Had not been forced." said Fitri softly. He and Tristan had been observing. The freshly entered Harna with a napkin contains a new porridge for Tristan, a clove of potato soup and warm water for both.

" Still forced?" tanya Harna while giving Tristan some porridge.

" Thank you ma, Om Rian is still aunty bribe when it has been refused." replied Tristan, then he ate the porridge, he wanted to recover quickly and change the food menu in front of him.

Ar felt the turmoil of his stomach. The reason he refused the porridge in the fifth feed was because of nausea and Rian who did not know anything continued to force him to eat.

Withdrawal of the infusion in hand, and run to the bathroom, ignoring Rian's worries.

Huueekk huueekk uhuk... Ar spewed out the porridge that Rian had fed in the sink. Tristan massaged his nape gently.

Ar cleansed his mouth from his vomit marks. He stood up from his bow, slightly shaken in balance but held back by Tristan.

" Thank you Tan." said Ar after gulping down water.

Tristan holds Ar, he knows that Ar is still weak and could fall.

Out of the bathroom, Rian put on a worried face, he was the most worried than Fitri and Harna.

" Dek, brother sorry yes, sister does not know if you are nauseous, sister maksa you eat, brother..."

" Sister is not wrong, next time ask first yes." advice Ar. Tristan puts him in bed, Harna gives him potato soup, and Fitri comes with Ronald.

Harna asked Fitri to call Ronald to put the infusion back on. Ronald takes the infusion in silence, he is still upset that Ar let Rian in while he was kicked out of the room this morning.

" Kenyang Tan.." said Ar. Ar asked Tristan to bribe him, only with Tristan he did not feel nauseous. Unlike the others, Tristan smoothed the potatoes in the soup with a spoon as it was kneaded.

He knew his beloved aunt did not like carrots, so he separated carrots. A steam of potato porridge accompanied by 2 mouthfuls of soup. Ar ate it until it was almost finished.

" Aunty's sick?" tristan asked, Ar answered with. "... Take the medicine now or?"

" Now, let all rest so that there can be energy for tomorrow." said Ar excited.

They smile between funny with Ar's faith and touched by Ar's intention to not let others worry.

Tristan, according to him, took 3 pills of different colors and sizes. He gave it to Ar. Ar gulp.

" But again just fell asleep, auntie do not lie down immediately." said Tristan while taking a glass of water from Ar.

The four adults who saw the interaction of the two big boys in front of them had mixed feelings. Between admiring Tristan who was very painstaking in caring for Ar, and Ar who was willing to accept Tristan's persuasion, only Tristan. Ar only wants to be cared for by Tristan and Tristan cannot refuse.

Emelia's doctor examined Ar's condition even though she was still telefooking, checking her pulse, her body temperature and several others.

Ar gasps in his sleep, he feels a little tight when breathing. Eye adjusts the light.

" Miss, how are you feeling?" dr. Emelia asked Ar who was gathering her consciousness when she woke up.

" Tight.." replied Ar in a hoarse voice.

" Sir, please just a few people inside." said Dr. Emelia.

Of course Ar feels tight, these five bocils are sitting on the side of the mattress next to Ar sleeping, there are also Andi, Ronald, Rian, Fitri, Harna and Herman.

They all intend to go out and leave Harna and Rian alone however.

" Where is Brother Herman going?" ar asked, he looked at those who were intending to come out, while Doctor Emelia was still busy examining him.

" Get out of the deck, you are crowded later if many people here." said Rian gave understanding.

" Sister who came out, let brother Herman same Itan same brother Harna who lived.." pinta Ar to Rian.

" Sister wants to know your condition, brother is worried about you." said Rian.

" No, brother out.." Pinta Ar again.

" Sister stay here..."

" I'm sorry, sir, you'd better obey my lady's request, maybe the lady is a little uncomfortable..." Doctor Emelia said.

" I'm not comfortable, my man is her brother." - denied Rian. Stubborn people this one does make people have to be patient with it.

" Bi, drink first, hoarse voice." said Tristan attention, he was already sitting in the fifth place of the leak was sitting.

" Thank you Tan..." He drank the water that Tristan gave him.

" Tristan can be here, why don't I.." defended Rian to himself.

" I can't, just can't..." Ar is just as stubborn as Rian.

" Ri, when you don't want to beat the same adek you.." Harna's voice finally mediated.

" Tau nih brother, is old also do not want to cower the same who is young.." added Ar.

" Ar can't do that with your sister." Herman advised his youngest brother-in-law.

" So, brother Rian is stubborn..." Ar defend himself.

" Let Tan go out..." Tristan relents, intending to get off the bed but his hand is held back by Ar.

" No, Itan can't go, Ar doesn't eat.." said Ar.

" Dad, come on, give it to Ar, he's sick again, he needs peace not a storm..." Fitri opened his voice. Only he still lives here, while the five bocil, Ronald and Andi already first.

Finally Rian relented and left with his wife.

After Rian left, Emelia's doctor examined her tongue and the inside of her mouth.

" The condition of the lady has undergone changes, of course, changes are even better, it is recommended for the lady to drink a lot, also eat yes, do not take her medicine without eating at all..."

" When is the infusion released?" ask Ar.

" After the lady didn't get nauseous and spit out the lady's food..."

" A can go to the party tomorrow?" ask Ar again. Harna, Herman, and Tristan only heard about it.

" It looks like it's going to be hard." replied Emelia's doctor to make Ar a little disappointed. "...if miss does not nausea and vomiting dinner later and tomorrow morning and noon maybe miss can follow the party." tamba Emelia.

"Yes.." It's great that Ar listened to that.

" But miss can't be exhausted... Before the party starts, I'll check again on the condition of the lady..."

" Good..." Reply Ar obediently.
