When Dusk Passes
Where's the izroil angel ?
The rain flushed very fast as Lira and Azka parked the bike in the parking lot. Carefully they passed through the outskirts of the Hospital building to the IGD room.
A few of Sift's friends had already gathered in the nurse's room. All of them showed slightly tense faces.
A well-bodied male nurse stood in front of them, she was the nurse in charge of the night service, while watching every apprentice one by one she gave directions to them.
There are 4 nurses for night shifts in the ER, one doctor, and one administrative person.
Lira put her bag inside the nurse's locker after the briefing was over, picked up the pocket book inside the bag and then began to walk around the ER room accompanied by one of the tall, white, high-bodied sisters,and narrow-eyed, she was better suited to being a flight attendant than being a nurse, thought Lira.
Emergency Unit consists of several rooms, the front there is a triage room where patients first come, then next to it there is an action room, then there is an observation room, each room has almost the same size. Nursing room is located opposite the observation room, next to it there is a sterilization room and at the very end there is a warehouse.
That night seemed lasting, there was no sign of the arrival of patients. The rain began to subside a little, leaving a puddle of water on every ground that was not flat, the Lira began to evaporate, a sign that she should have driven to the island of mattresses, but whatever the power, this was her maiden night service, where can the nurse keep sleeping, finally he decided to close his eyes with a lean body in the nurse's chair.
Azka noticed that her best friend who was asleep, Lira was sweet when sleeping, she had long lashes although not pliable, round eyes and big, very funny.
"Astagfirullah, what am I doing." Benak Azka while throwing her gaze out the door.
"Eyelashes??
That's right,,,,, uh,,,
What's wrong with me." Azka thought as she exhaled deeply.
Then he stood outside the ER door. But suddenly the noise began to sound, a black avanza quickly stopped right in front of the ER room door, the driver came out shouting.
"Suster tolooong, there's an accident patient!!!!"
Azka was surprised and called all the nurses.
"THERE'S A PATIENT !!"
Azka slightly shouted into the room.
Quickly the entire nurse went straight ahead, taking the gurney and moving the patient to the action room.
The patient was about 35 years old. Having just had a single accident at a crossroads, he appeared unconscious, fresh blood coming out of his nose and ears.
This is the risk of becoming an ER nurse, patients can come suddenly without any code first, every nurse has been wearing their own personal protective equipment, deftly come to the patient earlier.
" okay, sir! sir, can you hear me!" one of the nurses said to the patient.
No response from the patient, the nurse positions the patient's head with chin lift, head tilt. Checking if there is an airway blockage, the patient suddenly has a heart stop.
" CPR !!! the senior nurse orders one of the nurses who handles the patient, deftly the nurse was doing chest compressions, giving artificial breath through the ambu bag.
The CPR was stopped when the guard doctor declared the patient dead at 23:45 p.m., then the nurse recorded it in the patient's annesa record. Interns accompanied by a senior nurse cleaned the patient, tied a long gauze on both hands of the corpse in a prayer-like position, tied both toes and did not forget the head.
The lira swallowed her saliva, looking slightly wet at both ends of her eyelids, "is this where it finally comes to life?" mind Lira.
While looking at the still warm corpse, Lira thought to herself, this man might have still laughed cheerfully an hour ago, he was very young, it might have never crossed his mind to die tonight.
He did not know at all that his steps had been taken by the angel izroil, but really the distance of life and death was very close, closer than the gap between Adhan and iqomat.
The lira thinks, if the izroil angel can be seen, the nurse profession is the closest to her. Every day I fight to save lives, see the moments of human separation with his world, only the nurse never knows where the izroil took the life of every human.
Truly one thing that can decide us from the favor of the world is simply to remember death.
Police have arrived, he took the cellphone and contacted the family. Then asking for data from some of the people who drove the patient, they seemed to talk outside the ER while waiting for the patient's family to come.
Inside the action room, a quiet atmosphere was created, Lira standing next to Azka and some of her friends.
15 Minutes passed, heard from in front of the voice of a young pregnant woman crying, running quickly to the body of the man lying on the bed, hugging him tightly.
" it can't be ! how could this happen!!" wail the woman while crying.
"honey, you can't leave, can you, not so fast, baby, how am I? our son, our son is soon to be born." Wail it again.
Then she buried her face beside the bed while tightly holding the hand of her dead husband. She cried deeply, recalling the memory of being with her husband a few hours ago. She had a big fight with her husband.
...
That afternoon at 17:00 WIB.
" You are jahaaat!" he slammed the door of the room.
"okay, what's wrong? " Peach the husband confused to see the behavior of his wife who suddenly angry.
" I'm tired, just came home from the office, how come I get angry?" Persuade the husband while trying to open the door of the room that turned out to have been locked from the inside by the wife.
" Fold open the door. Let's talk good." The husband said he was still confused by the change in his wife's behavior.
The wife was still determined not to open the door.
" Yes, if you don't want to open it." Finally the husband gave up, then he sat on the sofa of the family room while taking a TV remote and turning it on.
He stretched his hands up. A day working in front of a computer screen makes his body sore. The man had been working for almost a year at a branch taxation office in the area, before he was stationed at the head office. The couple was newly married, and the wife is currently 7 months pregnant, he brought the wife to come with him.
