Tok tok!
“Excuse me, Doc, the body is ready.” A female nurse knocked on the door of my open room and informed the status of the body of her mother Clara.
“Thank you, please directly hand over the ambulance section and tell them to wait for a warning from me,” Doctor Brian orders in front of me.
“Good, excuse me, Doc.” Then the nurse went back to work.
I sighed and lowered my face, looking at the two fingers of my thumb that I had been playing with as if cleaning the surface of the nail. My mind is really fucked right now.
A few hours ago, I was proud to be able to save one of my own family members. Like God, I can make Jefri breathe the fresh air of this world again.
However, unexpectedly, in the next hour I had to swallow the bitter reality. That my future mother-in-law should breathe her last breath, in a different room in my hospital. How ironic!
God willed quickly, replacing my pride with a feeling I could not explain. Is this what is called world pride? So, if it really is a sense of pride, why does God present a sense of pride?
Again, I breathed heavily. Drowning with my own thoughts.
“Kal?” call Doctor Ranti, make me wake up from my daydream.
I lifted my face and looked at the two doctors who were still sitting in front of my desk. "Yes, what's up?” I said with lethargy.
“You want to be here?” ask Dr. Ranti again. I understand the meaning of the question, it's just that I need more energy to go through this.
Then I immediately stood towards the bathroom and changed my clothes there. For a moment, I looked at myself from the mirror. “I have to be with him,” I murmured once again and washed my face.
As soon as I came out of the bathroom, I still found the two doctors. Still talking at the same place before I left them to change clothes. Then I opened my desk drawer and took my car keys and wallet and said, “You want to be here? If so, I can go down by myself and tell Adam let him handle ER,”, I said to these two young doctors.
“Let me tell Adam,” bargain Doctor Ranti then leave while Doctor Brian still remains in his position.
“Please tell the ambulance driver to wait. Let me take her body myself.” Doctor Brian nodded and left. While I immediately stepped into the post-operative room, to meet Tika and Jefri there.
**
The current time has shown at one in the morning. Tika and also Jefri had not fallen asleep when I entered their room. The two were still seen chatting together, then I reported this sad news to the two of them.
“We are sorry, Kal.” Tika stood up and hugged me.
Soon I said goodbye to both of them, for I would deliver the body. I also said that I would take care of her inpatient room, so that both of Jefri's parents could visit her.
After that, I asked one of the nurses to take care of the move of Jefri's room according to the hospital procedures. Then come out to see all my family.
Mamah who first approached as soon as I came out from behind the door of the operating room. “Loh, what's up? Why are you so sad? Jefri's okay, right?” Mamah looked panicked, accompanied by other spontaneous movements to immediately float their two eyeballs in looking at me.
“Jefri is fine, he will soon be moved to the inpatient room. You can visit him, then some go home, so he can also rest.” I gave them advice to make them breathe a sigh of relief.
Then I looked at my mother and grabbed her hand. Mamah's face looked confused shortly after she hugged her mother Jefri. I took Mama a little away from the euphoria of Jefri's salvation and said that my fiance's mother was gone.
Mama immediately exclaimed in surprise and then closed her mouth, with one of her palms releasing my grasp. Make others aware of the excitement that mamah produce.
For a split second later, Max shook my body and asked what had happened. Mamah. Everyone was surprised when they heard it.
Because, just a few days ago it felt like we were all gathered in my house, when I confidently asked her to once again be my life partner. Then at this time, I brought word that he had died a few hours ago.
“I want to deliver the body and it will probably be there until the funeral procession is complete.” I asked for permission from Mom and Max.
“Mamah come with you there now,” lirih mamah who then once again hugs me. “Jeng, it's okay 'Don't I stay? Tomorrow I come here again,” please mamah with the Jefri family.
“It's okay, we're sorry. Give our regards to Clara and her father. And you, must be strong and patient yes.” He brushed my shoulder slowly. I just smiled thinly.
Then Max decided to come with me. “This is the car key,” pinta Max. I handed him. The three of us rushed off, stepping towards the basement of this hospital to pick up my car.
“You go to the ambulance, let me be with me. We followed behind,” Max's advice that I agreed with a nod of my head.
On the way, I asked them not to turn on the sirens because the time is now two o'clock in the morning. It's rude if the siren is sounded. Arriving at Clara's house, the condition around the house was quite crowded. Maybe their families have been told.
The ambulance workers immediately pulled out the body and picked it up and brought it into the house. So that other family members can do a final procession of respect for him before being buried.
I was a little afraid to enter the house, especially when I heard the sound of Clara's cries breaking just like that. Max finally patted me on the shoulder. Took me by force to go inside.
With an unsteady step and tears that had managed to fall soaked my cheeks, and my two ears that had no ceaseless heard Clara's roar. Until I finally saw all the sadness.
He cried curled up in my arms while looking at the body of his mother. There would be no one who would not drop his tears at a time like this. Moreover, once saw Clara who was so hit with the departure of her mother like this.
“Why did Mother leave me?! Why did Mother bear to father herself?! Why don't you want to fight together?! I just have Mommy .. I want to be with Mommy ...,” Clara who is held captive by the mama's embrace and also interrupted by her crying.
My tears did not stop, they just kept flowing down my cheeks. I deleted it so many times that I felt it was useless and I just let it wander. Perse! With the person who saw me crying at this moment. Because in this situation and in my current position, there is no way I can be tough. And there's nothing I can do, other than let Clara spill her feelings.
Luckily Max is with me at the moment. Strengthened me even with just a stroke of his hand on my shoulder. But I think it calms me down enough. Suddenly Clara fainted from her shortness of breath from crying.
All panicked, I picked him up, and his father told me to take him into his room, lay him on the bed. I checked his cold body. His whole body was frozen cold.
I ran to my car after asking Max for the key and opened the trunk, picked up the emergency check. Then I went back to checking her weak pulse and I prepared an emergency oxygen tank for her.
All of this equipment has long been provided in the trunk of my car, not accidentally. Everything I prepared the day after I found out about Clara's condition with asthma. I'm afraid that if I'm with me and the disease comes back, I can't help it.
Even I learned all about the first course of treatment if Clara fell unconscious. As it is now.
