THE WOUNDED EARTH

THE WOUNDED EARTH
THE HAKIM RIRIN



Map ..tap..tap.


The sound of a few footsteps woke me up from the sound of a moment.


"Good morning."a male doctor and the 2 nurses behind him greeted me kindly.


"May also doctor."


"Sorry to interrupt the time for a while, mbak, I will check the condition of his mother first." said the doctor politely.


"Please doc," I moved to give them space to check on their current situation.


Only 15 minutes of examination was completed.


"How's Doc, my mother's situation now?"ask me impatiently.


"Alhamdulillah has started to improve.God willing in the next 2 or 3 days can go home" explained the doctor again.


"Well, we'll excuse you first" their camels on the nurse's second smile.


"Thank you doc" I replied.


I approached the mother who was still asleep because she might still be under the influence of the medicine that was taken this morning.


My mother's condition is better now but I still have trouble talking.


His left limb should also be helped if he wants to move.


Tok.dok...


The door opened, and Bani was carrying a small bag and pillow in her hand.


"Where are the tires?"ask me curious.


"From my house."


"So I came home for a while, took a shower and changed clothes.You woke up big brother but big brother looks tired."


"What does that mean?"my eyes were on the bag in his hand.


"Oo this blanket is the same little pillow from Ririn."he said with a smile.


I also returned with a smile.Thank God that Bani and Ririn liked each other and fit each other.May their relationship last up to the guarantee, my inner.


"If so change yes, I don't want to go home first.You take a shower too."


"Yes, brother."


"Please take care of your mother" I said and slowly moved out of my mother's room.


I step foot in a shunt, tired this whole body.


Arriving at the hospital terrace I tried to order ojek online through the application.


Not for how long.


"Mdaughter Yati?"asked an online motorcycle driver to say hello to me.


"Yes right mas"my answer is short.


"According to the application?"ask her again.


I nodded in agreement and then immediately went up on her piggy bank.


Slowly the motorbike went through the hustle and bustle of the highway to take me home.


When I got home, I took off my shoes and put them on the shelf next to the door.


Immediately I grabbed a towel and headed to the bathroom, can't wait to flush this body with water to make it feel fresher.


After bathing and changing clothes, I lay the body for a moment in the bed.Di while in the hospital, sleep I can not restful because it must always be awake to ensure the state of the mother.


I open my phone screen.See there are incoming calls repeatedly.Marketing I see the name of the contact.Not named.


While in the hospital, I deliberately silent ringing my phone so do not know if there is an incoming call.


I open the messages one by one.


"Well, sorry I haven't been able to besuk mama because there are 2 friends we also can't go to work so while I have to overtime" from Ririn.


"How's your mother, if you need anything, call me" from Ronald's bang.


"Assalamualaikum Yat, how are you..?"


"I just called you, there's something I want to talk about."


"Can we meet.??, when do you have time...?


"I'm sorry"from an unfamiliar number.


Somehow there is a sense of sadness in my heart.Who...?my inner.


My mind was distracted for a moment by the sound of my stomach starting to give me a red light.


"Sate.sate.."say the voice of the seller's brother satay "sounds outside the house.


I rushed out.


"Bang, here" I shouted a signal.


"Sate neng?"he said with a smile.


"Ten puncture wear lontong ya bang, do not forget to love sambalnya."


"Ready man, wait a minute"


The smoke of burning satay meat gives its own aroma further adding to my hunger.


"Nih neng is ready"


"How much bang..?"


"If you make 15 thousand anyway"


"Indeed usually so much bang"timpal I welcome satay that has been wrapped earlier and give money 15 thousand.


"Joking yes neng, do not be deterred to buy the same brother yes" he said while welcoming money.


"No pa-pa bang, just normal" I smiled back.


Kriuk...


My stomach continues to call impatient.I open the satay wrap that has been seductive to my appetite.


Slowly but surely the flesh of satay and its poultice filled my abdominal cavity, so that it ran out of sight.


"Alhamdulillah.." I suck water.


After a while, I went back to my room.


Opening the Fac*b*k application for a moment while lying down.Pease of sleepiness began to wrestle my eye fertilizers to sleep unconsciously.

RIDWAN POV


It was almost 5pm, I took the keys in the nightstand and walked out of the room.


"Sir Er, if mama nanya says I'm out for a while...?"my message when I see Erna's mom sweeping the porch.


"Good on."


I drove the car slowly to the cafe where I met Ririn.


After I got there, I looked for a seat in the side row that was close to the entrance.


"What do you want to order?"ask a waiter kindly.


"Juice oranges one mbak"


"Okay" he answered briefly.


After a few minutes, the waiter came with my order orange juice.


Outside I saw Ririn coming in on her motorcycle matik.


After parking his bike, he walked in towards me.


"Sorry late brother" he said by putting the bag on the table.


"Have you been waiting a long time, brother?"


"No, I just came" I said while sipping orange juice.


"What do you want to order?"bargained.


"Mmm what yes, orange juice also let fresh" he replied.


I wave my hand at the waiter and order some orange juice for Ririn.


"It looks so tired Rin?"my many.


"Yes sister, it's been 2 days I'm full time.Today 2 friends did not go to work, added Yati also in the hospital so there are 3 people who did not enter."


"Why did Rin, what hurt?"my feelings were immediately anxious and worried.


"It's not Yati, sister, but her mother who is sick and must be treated" explained Ririn.


"Sister still has a sense of caring too huh?"


"Where have you been, you've lost no news" he said flatly but felt a bit cynical piercing my feelings.


"My phone's missing Rin" I lied.


Ririn looked at me full of probes.


"If you may know, actually there is something wrong with Yati and sister until sister behaves like this?"


"I'm sorry to see him, kak.So often daydreams to himself, trying to find the wrong where he is"


"It should be that if you are not too serious with him, don't give hope to give me all the ring"


I was judged in front of Ririn.


"I just want to meet him now to explain everything Rin," I said honestly.


Dreet...


Ririn's phone shook, she stared at me.


"Catsy,ka".
