When Love Teases

19. Secrets Secuil

The white Alphard car entered the parking lot of a well-known private hospital in the city of Tasikmalaya. The driver did not dare to reprimand the passenger who was still silent on the seat. So that the engine first turns on so that the AC cold remains blowing gives comfort.

The inner war lasted nearly an hour and brought Krishna to this hospital. I had to walk around in my room to make a decision. Labile, should it come or not. And the departure of the wife to study with Ratih and the mother-in-law became the decision maker. This is where it is now.

"Doni, don't tell Mom or anyone that I'm going here! Just say to Lake meeting with a relation!" Krisna said strongly to the driver. Lying once, repeating a new lie. Forced.

"Good, sir." Doni nodded obediently. Immediately pressed the button to open the sliding door because the employer was going down.

A middle-aged man was already waiting for him in the hospital lobby. Immeasurably salute Krishna. He is Mang Ade, the former driver of the Krishna family.

"Healthy, Mang?!" Krishna greeted his confidant. The one who witnesses his past.

"Alhamdulillah good. Haji sir, how are you?"

Krishna answered the same thing.

"Where is he now?!" Krisna walked side by side to the elevator that would deliver to the ICU room.

"It's critical, sir. The platelets are steadily decreasing and are not self-conscious."

Krishna's conscience was disturbed to hear the news that he had heard over the phone earlier. The patient is his responsibility. A beautiful and beautiful girl. He loved her.

The figure of a 37-year-old woman sitting in the ICU waiting room, standing up to welcome the arrival of Krishna. A tired, haggard face and brown lips. Blackened under the eyes signifies lack of sleep and puffy that appears because of frequent crying.

"Mas---" Only one word can be said because it suddenly stuck in the esophagus. Next the falling water droplets drenched the cheeks, a picture of deep sadness.

Krishna is the same. Feel the readable sadness in the look in his eyes. He could do nothing to comfort the woman in front of him. Even if it just gives a hug to strengthen. Maybe if he used to give you a shoulder to lean on. Because it used to be halal status as husband and wife.

"So, can I see it?" Krishna broke the martyrdom. He turned to look at the door of the ICU room which partly has glass. From there you can see how the patient is inside.

The woman named Kartika nodded. "The doctor has asked several times, because Dara continues to mutter calling Papi. The doctor hopes that the arrival of his papi will motivate Dara so that the spirit to heal."

Krishna digested it carefully.

"I'll call the nurse first!"

Doctors sentenced a girl named Dara Kinasih to positive DBD. Since entering the hospital two days ago, things have gotten worse. The platelets are progressively decreasing below 100,000/microliter of blood. Although it has received the best treatment but the reality today patients are in a critical phase.

"Because.ini Papi." Krisna was alone in the ICU room dressed in a special suit. Sitting next to a patient bed filled with tools attached to the upper limb. Just seeing him is really unbearable.

The nurse gave only 5 minutes to be in the sterile room. He grabbed the hands of the girl who was closed with a pale face.

"You need to heal, son. Mother will be sad if you are like this. Come on, wake up, baby!" Krisna rubbed the 9-year-old girl's forehead. Only that space is free from the means of life support.

Krishna saw Dara's fingers moving. Accompanied by eyes that blink.

"Become......Thank God, you realize, son." Krishna smiled as if. Those half-open eyes were now staring at him. There was a twinkle that got caught. Jugq read the motion of lips on a ventilator called the name "Papi".

"Yes.it's Papi."

But suddenly the child's breath was wheezing and the monitor screen moved straight lines and issued a warning sound. Makes Krishna's body tense in panic. Two nurses watching from the glass came in and asked Krishna to come out.

"Doctor, please save Dara! Whatever it costs I will pay! Help, Doc!" Krishna stopped the doctor who rushed in.

"We will do the maximum. Just help do'a. May God do wonders."

Everything happened so fast. Krisna watched from the door with the glass partition how doctors and nurses tried to help Dara. Pacemakers or defibrillators have been tried, but must end with the release of all the tools attached to Dara's body. White blanket covers up the ends of the hair.

"Innalillahi wa inna ilaihi roji'un-" Krishna shifted from the door. Banging his forehead against the wall with his eyes closed. As a man, it is with all your might and heart not to cry.

"Mas--- Dara why? She's okay, right?!" Tika's body stiffened. He had just returned from the mosque finished performing the Ashar prayer. Seeing Krisna as if in such a bad state, his mind began to guess.

There's no answer. The door of the ICU room opened and the doctor came out with a sad face.

"Mr Tika, apologize profusely. We have tried, but fate has willed."

"We're very sorry. May Mother and family be patient and stoic---"

And the next words he could no longer hear. Not even Krishna's grip on her shoulder could be felt. His body seemed to float. The world became dark for the single parent named Kartika.

...***...

Ratna felt an unusual uneasiness stir her heart and mind. Sitting restlessly and restlessly in his room. Dinner with family members is tasteless. Eating is just a hungry meal. He was more silent.

"Mommy, why hasn't Papi come home yet? Is the plan to leave at eight?" Cia walked over to her mother who was closing the suitcase. It was just an alibi when I heard Cia knock on the door. So that the youngest does not see the look of anxiety on his face.

"Again on the road, baby. Doni said Papi just finished a meeting with the relationship." Ratna was unable to contact Krisna because her phone was off. Alternatively, contact the driver.

"How long will you stay with Enin?!" Mami Ratna shifted the subject.

"I'm still here, Mom. Maybe the month of fasting here too. There is no swing. He's not coming home this month." Cia put her head on her mother's lap. There is still time together. Before her parents came home to Jakarta tonight. He wants to hide first.

"Good, Mam. Cape also LDR. They are rarely just vidcall doang. I don't know if Adit is loyal. In London there are many sexy bule." Cia took out her grunts. One year fostering a long distance relationship because the lover wants to reach the ideals of S2 college in the land of Queen Elizabeth.

"Huss, don't think so badly. Trusting each other should be the key to a relationship. Short distance or long distance. Should pray that his affairs be smooth, pass on time. Let's quickly come to propose to Mami's daughter," he said while looking at Cia's nose.

Cia breathed a heavy sigh. "Yes. Not like Kak Rama and Karen."

Mami Ratna again rebuked her daughter's words.

The door to the room is open. Papi Krishna walked in with a tired and sweaty face. Makes Mami Ratna smile with relief. The restlessness that had been entrenched, was treated with the return of the husband.

"The old fire is playing. We wait for magrib." Cia turned to sit and looked at the back of her papi who was standing on his back.

"Bapi's not playing, baby. There was an important meeting and it was just sorted out. It's the body until it's sticky, sultry....."

"The fire wants to take a shower first. Mommy get ready, we go home now!" Krisna glanced at it before entering the bathroom.

"Eat first, Pi. Mommy will be ready." Ratna prepares a change of clothes.

Krisna exclaimed from the bathroom that had closed the door. "No need, Mi. I was just on Doni's street."

On terrace. Rama and Damar sat down. Rama had just talked about his meeting with the Puput family with a cheerful face. Surely because there is no more Zara inside with Enin.

He could only escape from Zara who was constantly near him. With Zara mode want to kangen-kenan before going home. And Rama granted because after returning to Jakarta later, everything will end. He will break away from the bond of engagement that is not at all happy.

"Sir Doni, where did Abis go anyway? Why are there so many tires on the ground?" Rama just saw the state of his papi car. Just noticed Doni wiping the car body and spraying all the car tires.

"Eh that's anu, Mas. Just back home there was a dum truck load of soil spilled into the dirt road. I think it's over capacity." A scene at the beginning. Finally Doni can make a reasonable excuse even by lying.

Rama and Damar move into the house after spending a cigarette. Approaching the family that is gathering. Watching Krisna sitting at Enin's feet, all eyes were on him.

"Mother, I want to go back to Jakarta with Ratna. Forgive Krishna ya Ma'am if all this time your daughter-in-law is much wrong. Soon romadhon, sorry to be born and inner, ma'am." Krishna bowed to kiss her mother-in-law's feet with reverence.

What an attitude that surprised Enin. Not just Enin, but Ratna as well as the others. Not usually shaking hands until kissing the feet of all.

"Wake, Krishna. Don't be like this!" Enin shrugged his daughter-in-law's shoulders so that they were back up straight. Turning to bring the head of the son-in-law collapsed on his lap.

"Mom forgive you, son. Pinta Mama has always been the same. Happy Ratna. Never hurt his heart. Don't ever make her cry sad." Enin rubbed Krishna's hair. It ends with the top of the son-in-law's head.

"May all be in good health.to be strong and smooth running his shaum." Enin is aimed at everyone. Which is then secured.

Krishna closed his eyes. The love of the real in-laws is immeasurable. The heart of the moment felt. Her mind is in a dilemma. What if one day everything was revealed....

Suddenly the atmosphere in the family room became full of shahdu haru. Even Cia hid the face behind Mami Ratna's back because her eyes were glazed. Rama was glued to where he stood.

Switch the farewell Ratna. Hugging kissed her biological mother was full of affection and respect. Continue to do the same to Ratih, his younger brother.

Suitcases and other items have been put in the car. Krisna approached Rama, Cia and Mami Ratna on the terrace who were hugging farewell.

"Rama, Papi wait for you in Jakarta. We have a lot to talk about." Krishna patted Rama on the shoulder. He wanted to erode the distance of stiffness that his son had created.

"Same. I also have important things to talk about with Papi. Wait three more days I'll be home!" Rama received his Papa's embrace. I don't know why this time he accepted it willingly. This warm embrace that was almost a year away was lost because of the distance it made.

"Cia, fine here. Take care of Enin!" Papi Krishna kissed Cia on the forehead after the girl kissed her hand.

"Yes, Pi. Papi also take care of Mami..do not go home tonight.kasian later Mami in the lonely house." The child's message was answered by Krishna with a respectful hand. Made Mami and Cia chuckle at him.

Zara's smiley turn in front of Rama. Desire to steal the opportunity to hug the fiancee but be undone. Inside, he had received a reprimand and advice from Enin to maintain his attitude. To guard against slander and neighbor gossip.

The white Alphard car that had returned clean after being exposed to rain accompanied by splashes of land when parked at the TPU, drove out the yard. Return to Jakarta with the accompaniment of do'a loved ones to survive until the destination.
