Chapter 51
"Afif ...." Fatimah cried with tears flowing from the corner of her eyes. He opened both eyes with a hunting breath full of fear and sorrow.
"Honey," Suddenly Grace's soft voice was heard clearly in Fatimah's ears.
Fatimah blinked her eyes, trying to adjust her vision to the light entering her retina. She looked at the gentle smile of Grace who was nearby while holding her hand.
Fatimah realized that she was now lying weakly in a hospital bed. He also felt an infusion hose on the back of his hand and an oxygen hose attached to his nose. This state of affairs reminded him of the incident a few months ago, when his arm was shot.
At that time, when he opened his eyes, Afif's face was the first to be seen. However, this time was very different, it was precisely Afif present only in his dreams. In fact, just a shadow, the figure of Afif is very difficult to pursue.
"Dream is real, should I let you go, as you said in the dream?" Fatimah asked in her heart, to herself.
"Miss Elza, thank goodness you're sober. We will examine you" a voice awakened Fatimah from her mind.
Fatimah looked at the figure of the woman in glasses and wearing a white coat already near her, looking a smile from her lips. He nodded and looked towards Grace standing not far away from him with a smile.
Grace and Alex put Fatimah in a VIP room, in one of the best hospitals in New York City called New York - Presbyterian University Hospital Of Columbia and Cornel, which is also the largest in the world, which is not far from where Fatimah had an accident. They also asked the best female doctors to deal with Fatimah.
Almost an hour the woman doctor named Early was carefully examining all parts of Fatimah's body. Until Early finally breathed a sigh of relief and smiled.
"It's a miracle, usually someone who had an accident like the one that happened with Miss Elza, it will definitely have serious injuries.In fact, it could have made someone's body experience paralysis or disability." Clearly Doctor Early stared alternately at Fatimah, Alex and Grace.
Grace's face was stinging. As for Fatimah, she just fell silent. He was sincere with the worst thing that would happen to him.
Alex sighed, saying. "What about Elza?"
"You don't have to worry Mr. Alex, when we did the examination there were no serious injuries. But we will immediately carry out an examination on the inside of Miss Elza's body, to make sure that there are no harmful internal injuries" replied Doctor Early with a calm voice and face.
"Do it and give the best treatment to our daughter, Doc!" alex orders in a firm voice.
"That's for sure, we'll do our best. You don't need to worry," Early replied with a friendly smile.
"Thank you, Doc" Alex replied with a smile and a nod by Early Doctor.
Early doctors and nurses left Fatimah's treatment room. It coincided with Mark's arrival.
"I'm sorry, I just got to come see you" Mark said with a bouquet of flowers in his hand.
"It's okay, Mark, sorry to bother you" said Grace, giving Mark space with Fatimah.
"I've never been bothered, Auntie." Mark said with a smile, his heart was so happy to see Fatimah who was conscious from her coma.
"Hi, I brought this beautiful flower, to the most beautiful woman in my heart" Mark said, putting a bouquet of flowers on the table that was right on Fatimah's bed.
"It's so sweet of you, Mark," Grace's tease makes Mark's face flushed a little.
Fatimah was still speechless, she still remembered what had happened to her, a dream that made her wake up from a coma, as if it were real.
"Dear, you know what? It's been three days that you've been unconscious" said Grace, who made Fatimah more silent as she looked at Grace.
Grace smiled again and said, "For that long Mark has always been with you. Just this morning he was forced to leave you, because there was work to be handled by him."
"Was it that long, I was unconscious?" Fatimah asked staring in turn at them.
"It's a miracle, honey. According to the doctor's estimate, someone who had an accident like you, will fall into a coma as soon as one week, that's not okay." Obviously Grace with a smile.
"Thankfully, you were given a miracle to wake up within three days and according to Doctor Early your condition is fine. In about two hours there'll be an internal examination of your body, hopefully nothing to worry about." Grace Obviously. Seen a smile on Fatimah's pale lips.
"I will accompany and take care of you, Fatimah," Mark said suddenly, making Fatimah look at him.
All the words of Afif in his dream are very clearly recorded in his memory. He remembered Afif's last words, before Afif's body disappeared somewhere.
"Forget me! Go and see your future!"
Afif's last words were like orders to him. What else when he remembered the red box that Mark was carrying. Clear circles flowed back from the corner of his eyes.
"Darling, why are you crying?" Grace asked worriedly and gently wiped Fatimah's tears.
There was anxiety on Mark's face. Looking at Mark, Alex makes a slap on Mark's shoulder, as a gesture if everything will be fine.
Fatimah closed her eyes for a moment and took a deep breath, saying, "He asked me to forget it," Fatimah said in a very soft voice, there was a tightness squeezing her chest.
"Don't think of anything else, focus on your recovery" Mark said suddenly in a raucous voice, he could feel what Fatimah was feeling right now.
Mark's words made Fatimah look at him. He felt the sincerity of a Mark's heart, He saw in Mark's eyes there was love and affection for him.
"Can you accompany me through all this, Mark?" Fatimah's question made them all flinch, not believing what they heard.
Of course Fatimah's question made Mark smile happily. He approached Fatimah's bed and stood beside Grace.
"Without you ask, I will always be by your side. Accompany you in joy and sorrow" Mark said with a smile with sparkling eyes.
"Thank you, Mark," said Fatimah with a smile returning Mark's gaze.
"Can I ask you something?" Fatimah asked, making Mark's heart beat fast. And so did Grace and Alex. Their feelings were hopefully anxious about what Fatimah would ask for.
Fatimah tried to regulate her heart rhythm and steady her heart, with one breath, she said, "Make me your Master and be my Priest,"
