The Part 13

The sound of the gurney wheel
clearly it sounded in my ear, a sign that his position was getting closer to the morgue. I'm starting to deg degan. Because if there is a body sent here, it,
then I should be tonight
in a room with a body
that's. Hii .. I shudder
imagine that.
A minute passed.The sound of the gurney wheel was still heard in my ear. Two minutes ... I waited with a pounding thump. Three minutes ... but why the body
did not even reach the morgue room yes, even though the sound of the gurney wheel was very clearly heard in my ear, I sat in.
Because I was curious,
I then moved from sitting
and walk to the edge of the morgue wall. Looking towards the corridor
the one next to the morgue. O Allah .. I saw from a distance a gurney walking alone, heading towards me without anyone pushing it. I gulped with difficulty, my throat suddenly felt very dry.
For a while I just stood there, looking at the gurney without the master. My body
the trembling was so scared.
Cold sweat began to wash all over my body. I want to scream or cry
as loud as it is, but the voice cannot
exiting.
"Astaghfirullahaladzim ..."
I said many times in my heart. I
keep reading the prayer I memorized while looking at the gurney that was getting closer to the morgue. Because these eyes can also not be closed
or look the other way.
Like someone holding the head very firmly, so the view remains in the direction of the gurney.
I don't know how many times
I read the prayer I can.
suddenly the gurney stopped and disappeared from my sight. I sharpened my vision, by squinting my eyes, in order to see more clearly.
Right, the gurney is out of sight.
And the head can be moved again. I rushed into the morgue
And sit continuously
I read the prayer I can.
(It turns out that what Ilyas told me about Budiman's brother at that time was true, if they often saw the gurney and
the wheelchair runs itself in RS
these. O Allah .. I take refuge in You from the evil of all Your creatures and may I survive in this place
like the two senior sisters
that)

Until dawn, I
stay in a sitting position in the room, not once I go out.
Just a few times I moved
from sitting, then standing and
spread both hands, to
up and to the side, because it feels sore.
Rushing I went to the mushola, having previously pasted a piece of paper on
the front door of the morgue, with the inscription 'Officers are going to the mosque'
Along the road leading to
mushola, I passed by some nurses who had started doing morning activities. Also some people will go to the mosque to perform dawn prayers.
Maybe they are waiting for patients or employees of Jaya Putra Hospital who picket night. Doors and windows
some treatment rooms are open.
Soon I'll get some water
wudhu and establish congregational dawn prayers. When finished praying,
After I finished praying, I went straight
back to the morgue, worried that someone might be looking.
The day is starting to light. Along the corridor, there were many
people who pass by. At the door of the morgue, I didn't go in right away. I sat resting on the front bench, straightening both legs which began to feel very sore. Because last night I was in a state of tension, withstanding a great fear.
At 7 am Budiman's brother and Ilyas' brother arrived. The two of them looked smiling looking at me sitting in front of the morgue room.
"You're sitting here
Andri's? Is something in the room bothering you?" ask Ilyas while chuckling.
"Intentionally, Brother. Was finished
All breathing fresh air
morning" I replied lying.
Though because I want to straighten the legs that feel very sore.
"Oh .. in case you're afraid to sit inside. Didn't Doctor David come last night?" ask brother Budiman.
"Come, Brother. He also read the report book and kept coming back" I replied.
"You must keep reporting
not yet" asked Budiman again.
"Udah anyway, Ka. But
just a glance at traffic. I want to
report again this morning. Wait for Doctor David to come" I said.
"Yes if that's you
wait aja. We go inside first yes" said brother Ilyas.
the two senior brothers
then open the door and enter.
About five minutes later, though,
doctor David in the distance walked to the morgue. Immediately I entered following brother Budiman and brother Ilyas
"Good morning, Doc. I'm going to report again today. I'm Andri, the new morgue attendant"
I said, after doctor David sat in his chair.
Doctor David nodded
and smiling. "Welcome to join, Andri. Hope you work at this morgue. If there's anything you don't know, ask me or another senior here" said Dr. David.
"Good, Doc. Thank ye. I'm going home now"
I said.
"Yes please." replied Dr. David
I then approached
my two senior brothers, I mean
I will say goodbye to them and
take the bag on the table.
When I was about to approach Budiman's desk, I accidentally looked in the mirror. The face of Doctor Indri was there.
Hunt me down I turn my face the other way.
"I'm coming home now yes, sister" said I, Seraya took
handbags. I then walked towards the door.
In the corridor, I met
with a friend who also
just finished night service.
His name is Anfa. He's in the men's room. Sister Anfa is a senior nurse, she has worked for 8 years at Jaya Putra Hospital.
"So you're in the room
bodies, Andri?" ask Brother Anfa.
"Yes, Brother. Just 3 days. Two days ago I was in the morning."
Brother Anfa mangosteen mangosteen.
"You've met before
the same name Mr Danang is not there yet?" ask Anfa.
I frowned. Then glanced at Brother Anfa who was walking beside me, with a tail of eyes.
"Already,Sister. But just for a minute, time to change shifts
yesterday's. What happened to Mr Danang, brother?" manya curious.
Brother Anfa smiled,
it makes me more curious.
"He's a weird guy. Very mysterious. His face is very sleek, kayak holds many secrets" replied Anfa.
"How weird does that mean, brother? How Kak Anfa as well as know about Mr Danang?"
"Later you'll know for yourself, Andri. In the past, my brother also served in the morgue room, before Budiman same Ilyas service there"
Anfa said, the first time he served at Jaya Putra Hospital, he was placed in the morgue room, replacing the previous nurse. He was just alone with Danang sir for 5 years of duty there. Three years later, he faced Mr. Jarwo, asking to be moved to another room. Coincidentally along with that, enter brother Budiman and brother Ilyas.
"You'll be careful during the service there, Andri" Anfa said at the end of the story, before we split.
"Yes, brother, thank you very much for your advice" I said.
Even though I don't really understand
with the message that was said
Anfa.
What did Anfa say? Why should I be careful during the morgue service? Be careful of what and who? what about Mr Danang? who is he? Why should I be careful with him?
Some kind of question in the head.
