The Substitute

Memories about Rangga

"So, the patient's heartbeat stopped" said one of the nurses.

"Suster, please prepare a defibrillator." ask the doctor for the nurse.

"Good, Doc..." The nurse immediately prepared a pacemaker requested by the doctor, as a last resort to save Rangga.

"Are you ready?" ask doctor.

"Ready, Doc." she replied.

The male doctor also attached the tool to the chest of Rangga, when at the press of the shock button, Rangga's chest was raised. However, after the first attempt, the results are nil. The doctor glanced at the monitor which still showed a straight line.

"Once again." said the doctor.

The doctor who was Rangga's uncle tried for the second time, but after being given a shock, the results remained the same. There was still no beating in Rangga's heart. One of the doctors seemed to shake his head at the doctor who was holding the shock device, such as telling him that Rangga could not be saved. The doctor looked sad, he looked at the pale face of Rangga. Her tears fell when she saw her nephew.

Outside the room, there was still Ameera who kept crying in Ozan's arms. While Dina and Ramon with Aliyah were sitting in the seat next to her. They dissolve in each other's minds. Not long after Rizal came, he was so surprised to get news about his best friend. He sat down with Ramon.

"Mas, I can't if Rangga until why-why. Dina and Aunt Aliyah will hate me. It's all my fault, Mas." said Ameera sobbing. I don't know how many times Ameera said that sentence. His guilt is becoming more and more.

"Darling.don't blame yourself. It's not your fault. It's an accident." Ozan said trying to calm down.

"I'm supposed to be lying in there, not Rangga."

"Don't say that, yank. It's all fate. Nothing to blame."

For the first time, Ozan sees Ameera's deep sadness. He was even able to see there was still Ameera's love for Rangga in his cries. Guilt soon overtakes Ozan's heart.

If only he had not forced himself to marry Ameera, perhaps now things would have been different. Maybe Ameera and Rangga had a choice to be together. Rangga who loved Ameera was even willing to sacrifice his life to protect Ameera, even though Ameera had become someone else's wife.

I'm sorry yank, I'm the one who separated you from Rangga. Had I been unselfish at that time and chosen to hand you over to Rangga, maybe things would have been different today. There will be many possibilities between you and Rangga. Perhaps, Rangga will not lie there, and you will not cry like this. I am so confident that I can take care of you. I forgot that Rangga has been taking care of you better than anyone. Ozan.

Tears of regret flowed from Ozan's eyes looking at Ameera who was crying a mouthful.

Memories of Rangga are reflected in the minds of Ameera. From childhood until the age of adolescence, Rangga was always with him. When Ameera was sad, only Rangga was able to comfort her. Rangga was present in Ameera's life and became her protector.

Don't leave me, Rangga. I've never even told you my heart. Why all this must happen. Inner Ameera

If Dina looks so hit, then another case with Rangga's mother. He looks so tough. Even Dina was leaning on her shoulder spilling her tears.

"Don't cry, Dina. You've been crying a lot for Rangga all this time. Believe me, whatever happens, it's best for Rangga" said Aliyah.

"You must be strong. Rangga doesn't like to see people he loves crying."

"I know that, but I can't help it today."

"We wish Rangga all the best. If God takes it from us, then we should be able to let it go" Aliyah said.

"I won't be strong..."

Ramon could only try to strengthen Dina by rubbing her back. His heart was like being electrocuted by high voltage electricity to see the girl he liked crying bitterly. Ramon occasionally turned his eyes to Ameera who was sitting with Ozan in the corner. Even Ramon could see Ameera's deep sorrow.

Rangga, you can even make these two girls love you so much. You know, I'm so jealous of you. You have to hang on and make amends for your mistakes with Dina. Don't give up, Rangga. If you can't have Ameera, you have a choice of Dina. Who loves you more than anything. Ramon.

Elsewhere, Naura who was so shaken because it turned out that the person she hit was her own sister. He was crying and lamenting his actions.

Although his relationship with his stepbrother was not so good, but Rangga was the only brother he had. After his mother's death a few years ago, only his father and Rangga had. However, because of his crimes, Hendri is now languishing behind bars.

"YYESYY!!" Naura's screaming voice calling out her sister's name filled every corner of the room, her cries breaking, her mind in a state of turmoil.

"I'm sorry, Rangga."

Naura shouted, cursing her stupidity. He was frustrated and threw anything in front of him so that his room became very messy.

"Ameera.. All this because of you Ameera!" naura said emotionally, "if anything happens to my sister, I will destroy you no matter how."

The girl did not realize her mistake at all, that she was the one who caused Rangga harm. He even hates Ameera. A man who knows nothing of himself and a past grudge between his father and Hendri.

****

Everyone who waited in front of the room seemed to have resigned where fate would bring Rangga. Not long after the doctor came out of the room with a face full of sadness. Aliyah who saw the look on her brother's face had already guessed in her heart what happened to her son.
