The Other Me
Kambali Sick
Mario told me nothing about what. Ar just heard it, taking antidepressant pills that he did not take nearly 3 weeks, once he sipped about 5 pills into his stomach.
Crouching until he snuggles he falls asleep on the floor of his room.
Mario's voice that was only vaguely heard finally can be clear he understood after taking the antidepressant pill.
His head was a little bit tired and reduced.
He kept trying to sleep, resting his mind and body that looked very tired.

Harna could not feel the slightest bit of calm. After his parents and first brother were there he already felt this would not end well.
Sure enough, he sees Ar being severely reviled by the two. He's worried Ar's health is getting worse.
He can't sleep tonight. He is eager to sleep with Ar but before entering the room, he hears that Ar wants to be alone.
He glanced at the clock, at 3:52, it was almost morning, it did not matter if he looked at Ar for a moment.
He opened a little door Ar, his eyes went to Ar's bed, but there was no one.
He ventured in, his intention was to check the bathroom, but he stopped when he saw Ar who was sleeping hugging his knees just covered with a carpet with his body shaking from shivering.
She called her husband, that's all I thought. Finished telling Herman to come, he pulled the blanket from the bed to wrap Ar's cold body. Accidentally he touched Ar's skin, he felt the body temperature is not normal cold.
Waiting for the husband to come, he rubbed both palms, felt quite warm taped to the cheek Ar.
He felt a cold wind coming in. Room windows and balcony open. He intended to close it but Herman entered the room.
Herman carried Ar shaped like a cocoon. Harna chooses the quick pajamas that Ar will use.
The two who panic take Ar to the hospital without informing the house person.

Critical Ar condition. Unwell from typhoid, heartburn and lack of body fluids, he was re-diagnosed with hypothermia, and excessive stress.
After hearing the doctor's condition, they returned to Ar's room. Ar is lying in the most luxurious room in the hospital, the room that does not look like this is a hospital room.
Lying weakly with an oxygen mask covering half of his face, an infusion attached to his left hand and several other hoses under a thick blanket covered his entire body.
Earlier, when examined Ar had a seizure because of difficulty breathing so he wore a tool to help breathing
" Mum, ask mbak Anin to make breakfast trus send my clothes here yes, I take care of Ar, mas go home, office right?" harna.
" yes. Don't think too much, Ar is strong, he can live this all." said Herman strengthen Harna. He kissed Harna's forehead as if channeling his spirit to his wife.
" Yes, yeah..." Answer Harna.
Herman then left them.
Harna daydreamed, I don't know what she was thinking. He woke up as the phone rang from Ar. Turns out Ar is still holding his phone.
The name of Mario is a sleepy man who since yesterday morning called all day.
" Hello, good morning." said Harna.
" Hello, good morning, ma'am, where are you?" ask Mario from across.
" It's in the hospital." replied Harna without him noticing.
" Oh, thank you mom, good morning..."

" Where is Anin going?" ask Rian. He and Fitri are indeed on 1 week leave because Fitri's pregnancy so he did not leave last night like their parents and first brother.
" Want to go to the hospital, sir..."
Hearing that, Rian immediately woke up from his seat, just as Harna and Ar were invisible when yesterday they had lunch together.
" Let me just be bi..."
Ask Rian, he has not eaten at all but his mind is empty. He is not stupid, he will certainly be hit if Ar position last night, especially Ar is not fully healthy.
Tristan intends to participate but is detained by Herman who just joined the table eating.
" You anterin your brothers first, trus permitin Ar, if you want to keep in yes all your permission too." said Herman calm, although he was also not calm.
Rian with Fitri then went to the hospital.
Tristan finished his meal in a hurry, he climbed upstairs and changed his clothes for a casual trip.
After dropping off his younger siblings, he enters the High School grounds. Obstructed by OSIS.
" Where are you going, don't wear a wild uniform at school.." it's none of your business.." block the OSIS.
" This school has my papa, I'm coming officially, you want to be kicked out now say..." Tristan Emotions.
The one holding him let him through. Now it has entered the class so it is not too crowded and there is only OSIS that roams around.
He walked quickly to his classroom. Without knocking he opened the door of his class.
" Mom's the permit." said Tristan. Without waiting for a reply, he left.
Sepwrti entered his class, he entered class X LANGUAGE 1 without knocking, it turns out his teacher has not entered.
" Bi Ar permission yes..." Tristan said without waiting for an answer or question from them, he immediately left.

At the hospital, Harna sits beside Ar who is calmly closing his eyes.
Gently caressed Ar's brown mane. Let Emelia's doctor take blood samples, inject drugs and others.
Kissed the back of Ar's free hand. He remembered where Vian had once been in the hospital because of food poisoning brought by his friend as a stock.
The open door placed Rian's worried face and Fitri behind it.
" Sister, why can Ar gini brother? Why so many hoses? Brother answer brother..." Emotions Rian.
" Look down, it's a hospital..."
" No, if you don't talk about it, you'll keep quiet and keep lying..."
" Quiet deck, Ar again rest, don't fuss..."
" SISTER CAN STILL BE CALM IN THIS KIND OF SITUATION." shouted Rian.
Plaques
"... Ar doesn't want you guys to worry stupid, he's worried about you all, with Fitri's pregnancy, your business, Ronald and Andi's college. I have to deal with the sick who beg me. Ri, understand also my position, Ar's position.
He's under a lot of stress because of the anxiety he shouldn't have thought of at that age, and you with his ego keep pushing him...
"...after last night, have you apologized to Ar? Haven't you? Your selfishness and stubbornness could have kept you close..."
"..."
" What? Can't reply? Now you think about how you were in Ar's position..."
*
In a hurry, Tristan ran down the corridor of the hospital. Causing a disturbing noise, he paid no heed to the reprimands or annoyed grunts of the doctors or disturbed patients, his focus was only on his beloved aunt.
The door was forced open, Tristan entered.
Stunned for a moment stared at the many hoses connected to his aunt's body.
" Bi.." call Tristan. It's like the three adults there are invisible. He approached Ar's bed.
Harna pulled away from beside Ar. Tristan was getting closer. He knows Tristan understands Ar's situation, Harna also knows about Tristan's guilt towards Ar who is hated and often reviled by his father.
After Tristan sat in Harna's place, Harna picked up a paperbag from Fitri and replaced the pajamas that were still in use when dropping off Ar earlier.
Fitri then pulled her husband to sit on the sofa in the room.

Mario's not coming, something that's not new. But usually, he will only skip to sleep in the UKS or library after taking off his bag in class just like that.
Since morning the man was not seen at all.
Mario is on his way to the hospital. The worry about the girl who caught his attention was more than a boring study.
At the hospital, he ventured to enter
"...Good morning sir, ma'am, Tri..." Her speech.
" Morning.." they replied.
" Not school?" ask Harna.
" No ma'am, I'm allowed to." I lied.
" Oh, thank you for looking at Ar..."
" Yes ma'am, I brought this for the other mother..."
" Not for Ar?" ask Harna.
" Then Ian vomits mom, I don't know what he'll bring..."
" You know what?"
" Yes ma'am, yesterday the call was not turned off so I had time to hear, sorry ma'am..."
" Oh, what's wrong, Ar told you?"
" Don't tell another friend..."
" It must have been, yes, sit down.." persuade Harna because Mario had not sat down.
" Yes mom..."
Then they talked for a while.
