When Dusk Passes
It Turns Out That's Formalin Liquid
Today is the last day Lira and her friends are in the ER, after a week they are there.
Shif in the afternoon is more pleasant than the morning or evening shif, in addition to the atmosphere is calmer, the senior nurse is also less, sometimes they are only three.
The patient was quiet on their last day of service, there were only 2 patients, the first Junior High school student came with a complaint of shortness of breath after being scolded by his mother for accidentally dropping a cellphone so that the screen broke.
Simply positioned semi fowler/half sitting, put oxygen with nasal casing flow 2 liters/minute and observation, then the doctor tells the mother that her child does not need to be treated. The mother nodded slowly.
" Are you sure he's really claustrophobic?" Alin's whisper in Lira's ear.
Lira scrunches her forehead towards Alin, the funniest friend in the world she has ever met.
Alin has a tall, thin posture, short hair under his ears slightly curved out, reminiscent of Lira in the cartoon character named olive, her boyfriend popeye the sailor.
" I mean ?" Lira asked back.
" I mean, he could have pretended to be claustrophobic to steal the show, especially his mother." Alin whispered while squinting, looking as if probing.
Wanting Lira to laugh out loud to see the expression of Alin who was like detective serlock holmes, instead of laughing Lira even squinted at the patient.
" Spirits can be manipulated by Ra, I checked his pulse regularly." Ketus Alin is still in her funny tone.
" Often if the tightness must be a little anxious so that it makes the veins irregular." Added Alin.
True also, breathing is regulated by the brain in the medulla oblongata, but its movement is assisted by the diaphragm muscle that works consciously, which is called, unlike the heart muscle and smooth muscle in the intestine that works unconsciously.
That is why, when examining the patient's breathing, the nurse is not recommended to inform the patient.
Because breathing can be regulated, it could be pura-tightness by inhaling and expelling air quickly.
Alin approached the patient.
The patient was lying alone unaccompanied by his mother, as the mother was taking a prescription at the dispensary.
" How's the deck? Is it better ?" Alin said kindly.
" yes, brother." Answer the boy while looking down.
" So the doctor said, you don't need to be treated, just observe for a while, then you can go home." Alin said again, acting as if he was the head of the room there.
Lira walked up to the two of them, smiling kindly.
Suddenly from the outside there was a commotion, it turned out that there was a new patient coming. Lira and Alin immediately stepped outwards, leaving the child.
The patient came up with a case of drinking poison, a very young woman, 21 years old. Petite, curly hair that seems to be deliberately painted brown glow, white skin, beautiful like a barbie.
There are remnants of hena on the nails of his hands and feet, if you look at a glance, people already know that the woman is a newlywed.
"But why would such a beautiful woman commit suicide" thought Lira.
The patient is still conscious but his general state is declining. His face was pale, his lips and mouth slightly blackened.
"When do you drink the poison buk?" The doctor told the patient's family.
" Dock this morning, about 7am." Answer the mother who looks like the patient's parents.
" What poison?" Ask the doctor again.
" baygon lique doc." I'm the mother.
hmmm.the doctor examined the patient again. Then look at the clock in his hand.
" It looks like the poison has spread buk, it's been more than 6 hours." The doctor told the mother.
The lira gets the task of putting on an infusion, not imagining how happy the girl is, because of the practice with the real patient.
While arranging the drip infusion, came a father-father approached the patient. At first Lira guessed it was her father's patient, but it turned out to be her husband.
Gleeleek...
Lira and Alin throw each other a glance.
" It's only natural that the woman would kill herself." Whisper Alin into the Lira's ear.
" I would do the same if I had a husband like that." Alin said dramatically.
Lira held back a laugh, Alin is really outrageous.
After the patient is taken to the ward. No more patients came, so the Lira took the initiative to clean up the equipment on the medical instrument table.
The alcohol bottle is almost gone.
" Sister, the alcohol is over." The lira showed the nearly empty bottle to the senior nurse.
" Please refill yes, the alcohol is in the sterilization chamber of the device, under the table." The senior nurse said.
Lira and Alin went to the room.
The eyes of the two girls were looking for alcohol.
Then Alin nyeletuk.
" Maybe this?" Alin said while idling conductor size 2 liters.
"But the smell is a little strange." Said later.
" oh yeah?" Lira said as she approached.
" Come, let's try it first." Said Alin
Stupidly the two girls spilled the liquid into their palms. What happened then...
Aaaaagghhhh...!!!!!!
Both are hysterical. Make the senior nurse in the nurse room run to the room where Lira and Alin are.
" What's up?" The nurse looked panicked.
" What's this fluid, brother?" Ask Lira no less panicked."
" What are you doing with that liquid? that'S FORMALIN." The senior nurse said.
" Wash your hands!!" His order.
Lira and Alin immediately ran towards the washing tap Corridor, their hands now like the hands of grandmothers.
Instead of panicking, Alin laughed.
" Hahaaaaa, cool hand." He said, shaking his hand into the air.
" He's really crazy." Lira snorted while talking to herself.
Just as crazy as Luna Loovegood in the Harry Potter novels.
