THE WOUNDED EARTH
SECOND ATTACK
I looked at the back of Ronald who was getting away
My heart feels ungodly
Worrying....? Maybe!
***
"Assalamualaikum" I opened the door that was not yet locked.
"Old brother?"
"Says a moment".tegur Bani who sits in the living room.
"I was talking like that?"answered me who took a seat next to her to take off the shoes.
"Kata Ririn" he said with a cry.
"So after the hospital brother stopped by the cafe, met bang Ronald"
"Is there really a problem at work?"
"No, just at dinner with bang Ronald "obviously me.
"Yes, brother to the room first.want to rest"
then I left Bani who came back engrossed with her phone.
I lay my body in bed hoping this tired slowly go yawn with the night.
Shadowed by memories with brother Ridwan, his jokes.., his sweet attitude.., really make my hard heart finally melted.
A ring of sweet rings is an unspoken promise.
Patience is a great hope in it.
But darling, the new knitting of love for the corn makes me even more worried...
Because of the lack of your presence, hang my hope
I leave it all to the time that will lead where this path of love leads

Dreet...
Dreet...
I grabbed the phone on the table with drowsiness still felt.
"Hello Yat, I'm sorry.I can't pick up, my motorcycle tires are leaking.It's again in the workshop" Ririn said from across the street.
"Yes not pa-pa" I replied slowly.
"Why are you, sick?"ask her.
"Just wake up.yeah Rin, I took a bath first" I replied.
"What, you just woke up. It's what time, we'll be.." I hung up quickly while smiling amusedly.
I hurried to the bathroom.
"Right is too late" my heart.
After taking a shower and wearing my work uniform, I grabbed a sweater and a bag to get ready to go.
"Sister, brother,.emak, sister!"bani shouted from inside the mother's room.
I was shocked and went straight to Bani.
"Emak, why Ban"I asked to directly examine my mother's body.
"So the morning after taking a shower as usual my mother tried to walk with a cane."
"But not for long, I'm complaining of shortness of breath" Bani said nervously.
"Hurry, we'll take your mom to the hospital."
"Wait a minute, I'll book a taxi online first" I said.
I also went to the terrace of the house, ordering an online taxi through the available application.
A car stopped right in front of the house.
"Alhamdulillah, come quickly"belimku.
"Lho, Ronald?"I'm a little surprised.
"I'll pick you up" he answered briefly.
"I can't go to work first bang, you want to take my mom to the hospital now"
"This is also waiting for an online taxi" I was clear with an anxious face and almost wanted to cry.
Bang Ronald broke into the house.
He came out carrying his mother in the follow Bani carrying a bag.
"Cancel order!
"What orders bang?"ask me to be confused myself.
"Taxi online."
"Hurry in! yell again.
I rushed into the car and sat in the back seat holding my mother's head.
Bani sits next to Ronald who is focused on driving the car to the nearest hospital.
My tears were dripping nonstop, hoping that my mother's condition would be fine.
"I'm not ready until my mother.." My inner voice can no longer speak.
"Mr..emak.."Call me down.
At first glance I see Bani's face looks anxious, repeatedly he looks back at his mother.
We're afraid...
Fear of losing the figure that has always been there for us
The figure of a mother who continues to struggle without caring for her own interests
He who always lies by saying still full when we still want to add to the meal
He who wakes up earlier and sleeps later than us, just to make sure that we sleep comfortably
He taught us how to live a hard life patiently
He is always smiling behind his wounds and suffering
"Mom, wake up mak"call me down with tears that keep dripping.
The car door opened, some medics dressed in white immediately moved quickly.
My mother was taken to the ER room.
A nurse advised us to wait in the waiting room.
My heart was agitated, as if time were going very slowly.
It's been 30 minutes, and no nurse has come to us to tell me how my mother is.
"Sit Yat,"saran bang Ronald.
I also sat near him.
"Have you had breakfast?"
I can only shake slowly.
"Wait here for a minute "he's leaving.
Not long after, Ronald returned with a bag of crackle filled with food and several bottles of mineral water.
"Eat first, Pirates too"
"You have to keep eating so as not to follow the sick, then who takes care and takes care of the mother "he reminded us.
I gave Bani a bottle of mineral water and bread.
I sip the water slowly it is very difficult to swallow in the throat.
This heart can not be calm before knowing the state of the mother now.
"Mbak Yati's?ask a nurse who just came out from behind the ER room door.
"Yes, me" I answered nervously.
"Now we can enter" he explained.
"How's our mother doing, sus?"manyworry.
"Later the doctor who will explain in more detail yes" he said kindly.
I also nodded in agreement.
"Come in first"saran bang Ronald.
I step foot into the ER room.
There she lay with an oxygen hose and an infusion attached to her wrist.
His consciousness has not recovered.
It felt this heartache to see my most dear person lying weakly helpless.
I sat down beside my mother, looking at her face that already had an aging frown line.
"Mak, don't leave Yati...."
"We love mom"my whisper who came back crying sobbed.
"Emak promises Yati, you want to see Yati get married right?"
"The mac should always be there for us."
"We can't live this life without our mother."
Bani grabbed my shoulder from behind.
He was silent, only tears dripping down his cheeks.
"Excuse me, excuse me. Can you talk to Maisaroh's mother's family?"ask a man dressed in white.
"I'm his son" I answered by sweeping the rest of the tears on the cheeks.
"Let's come to my room, there's something I want to tell you about your mother's condition" said the man who turned out to be a doctor visible from his id card.
I followed the doctor to his room.
"Please sit down" he said kindly.
I sat down and waited for what the doctor would say.
"Look, your mother in the meantime has to be hospitalized first because this is the second attack."
"Most likely the left side of the body such as the hands and feet can not be moved as before but if the health of Maisaroh's mother begins to recover can be done routine therapy to stimulate the nerve function of the legs and hands."obviously the doctor.
"Then there's still hope for my mother to recover, right doc?"
"Truely, the important thing is that the patient must also have the spirit to heal."
"Thank you doc, for the explanation."
"Then I want to go back to look after my mother first, again thank you "my words are relieved.
I left the doctor's room and rushed to the hospital room.
The anxiety in my heart diminished after hearing the explanation from the doctor earlier.
"Alhamdulillah "ceasingly my mind is grateful.
