CHAPTER 28


Arriving at Fay's residence, Fay's parents take Kevin to dinner with them, as it happens to be about to have dinner. "Yuk yuk, mas!" bring Fay.


Kevin nodded without hesitation to accept Fay's invitation, he followed Fay into the dining room and sat down with his parents and brother Fay at the dinner table. They enjoyed dinner while chatting casually. "So how's the operation going?" ask Fay's father to Kevin and his eldest daughter.


Kevin and Fay exchanged views, both of which gave each other codes to answer Fay's father's questions. Fay feels Kevin is much more entitled to answer the question because Kevin is the doctor in charge, while Kevin actually wants Fay to answer it to find out how far Fay understands the surgery that has just taken place, and he wanted to know Fay's feelings about the operation.


"So how's the operation going?" reset Adikara.


"That's okay, yeah."


"Thank God be good, om."


Answer them both together, until both become misbehaved. Ratri and Icha who were sitting in front of Kevin and Fay, smiled at the two's behavior.


Fay cleared his throat to relieve his nervousness. "But the patient still has to be treated in the ICU room for 2-3 days, correct the mas?" fay asked, looking at Kevin.


Kevin nodded. "Yes, to monitor the progress of the results of the operation, if there are no problems, then it can be moved to the inpatient room," continued Kevin.


"You're lucky that Fay can participate in this operation. As far as I know, Marfan syndrome is quite rare!" ratri.


"Yes, this syndrome is estimated to affect 1 in 10,000 to 20,000 individuals in the world" said Kevin. "It can be said, if one parent has marfan syndrome, the child will likely have a risk of experiencing the same condition of about 50%. About 25% of people with Marfan syndrome pass on abnormal genes from both parents."


Icha nodded at Kevin's explanation. "Ooh, because of the genes that cause it?"


Kevin took a sip of water, then put his glass back on the table and his gaze turned towards Icha. This syndrome can also be caused by defects in the genes that work to produce fibrillin proteins," Kevin replied "If the FBN1 gene is problematic, of course, the production of fibrillin protein will be disrupted to cause elastic connective tissue to decrease and bone growth becomes uncontrolled."


"In the case that we just handled this morning, from the tip of the hair to the patient's feet, experiencing mutations or abnormalities (connective tissue disorder). His entire body is dilated. His fingers were large and long, his height was towering up to 196 centimeters. In fact, the patient's aortic blood vessels widen until leakage occurs, which is why we immediately take surgery because the patient complains of tightness."


Kevin has a special attraction when he is explaining something, so sometimes Fay dissolved in all the charisma emanated from Kevin's face. "Is there anything you don't understand?" kevin asked, immediately breaking Fay's daydream.


"Ehh.." Fay shakes. "No," he said nervously. "I was just thinking, it doesn't feel like it's been more than a year since I've been co-***, in a few months I'll be taking the Certification Examination." Fay looked at Kevin. "Thank you, I've helped me so much over the years."


In the past, Fay's world seemed to revolve only in Kendra, until he realized that many things he had missed so far, especially the best friends who always helped him, including Kevin.


Kevin smiled back at Fay. "If you don't mind, I'll accompany you to study until you're graduated and pledge the Doctor's Oath."


By 21:00 p.m., Kevin was leaving Fay's residence. Kevin was escorted by Fay and his father to the front door, he seemed hesitant when he was about to step out, Kevin turned back to face Fay and his father. "Om, Saturday is my day off. Can I take Fay out?"


Adikara was not surprised to hear Kevin's question, since the beginning he had suspected that Kevin was trying to get close to his daughter. "Cok ask me?" ask Kevin with a joke. "Ask dong with his faynya, if om really allow as long as you take good care of him, do not do anything and do not go home late at night."


"Just go to the orphanage, have dinner with the children and teach the children a little medical science to maintain their health" replied Kevin.


"Then ask yourself the same Faynya," Adikara glanced towards her daughter who was standing next to her.


"How's Fay?"


Fay smiled wryly as he nodded. "Yes, um."


Kevin can not hide the look of his happy face, he grabbed the hand of Adikara and then regretted it. "I'll excuse you, Assalamualaikum" he turned to Fay to wave his hand and leave Fay's residence.


After Kevin's car goes unseen, Fay and Adikara return to their residence. Fay immediately ran to his room impatiently opening the gift of Kevin. "Wooow," cried Fay girang, he got a stethoscope of littmann cardiology IV from Kevin.


"Isn't that the stethoscope you asked for yesterday?" ratri asked behind the door, he walked into Fay's room, followed by Icha behind him. "Waahh very cool mba Fay," said Icha. "Doctor Kevin is really good, smart and handsome again, more handsome than the..." Icha refused to mention Kendra's name.


"What the hell are you, handsome is relative. Intelligence is also the same, everyone is smart in their respective fields," said Fay as if he did not want Kendra compared by anyone, Fay felt like somehow Kendra had been the most important part of his life.


Ratri sat next to his eldest daughter. "Fay," he stared fixedly at Fay. "Mom saw Kevin put his heart on you. Do not let you give false hope to him, what else just make him an escape from your pain towards Kendra or take advantage of her kindness. If you don't feel ready to accept someone new, limit your company to him."


Fay understood what his mother meant, he just followed the flow while getting to know Kevin more deeply, so as not to be betrayed a second time. "Yes mom, I understand. I never had any intention of using Kevin's kindness."


Ratri patted Fay's shoulder gently. "Mom trusts you, son, have you rested already, tomorrow night will have to go to the hospital again." Ratri takes her youngest daughter out of Fay's room. "You're also on a break, tomorrow's college."


"Bobo same mom yes," pinta Icha with spoiled.


Ratri hit the arm of his youngest daughter. "It's big, bobo himself in your room."


"Kangen buuuu, I will soon be KKN," he persuaded. "May ya ma'am..."


Ratri took her youngest daughter's hand to her room. "Yo wis yuk!"
