Being a Dad to My Niece
Chapters 164. Alva and Sapphira


Chapter 164


Returning from Alva Hospital, he went straight to the airport. That night he went to Singapore. He was already impatient to meet Safira even if only for a moment. Because tomorrow he has to go to work again. Fortunately, he had an understanding partner and the hospital made it easier to ask for a shift change.


The journey of an hour more was felt all day for Alva, he was impatient to land in the Lion Country. In his heart he did not stop praying so that he could meet Sapphira and the girl was in a better state than the last news had gotten.


As soon as he got to Singapore Changi International Airport, Doctor Rama came to pick him up. He immediately took Alva to the hotel nearest to the hospital. Because Sapphira is currently resting, so can not be visited. Tomorrow morning they can visit the girl.


"How's Fira doing, Pa?" ask Alva.


"Alhamdulillah. He's much better. He is very excited to be able to get well soon because he wants to meet you. Just now when he realized the person being asked was you. Papa is jealous, not yet a husband, he keeps looking for you" replied Doctor Rama and Alva laughing.


Tonight Alva has to rest so that tomorrow she is fresh when she meets Safira. The young man wanted to appear as handsome and perfect as possible in front of his lover.

Sapphira turned her attention towards the door, upon hearing the sound. Her tears instantly slid when she saw the person she had longed for all this time, now standing in front of her. If only he could move his legs, he would definitely run towards him.


"Assalamualaikum, Fira," said Alva in a trembling voice.


Not only did Sapphira cry, Alva was the same. The two lovebirds felt very happy when the longing that had been mounting in their hearts was now exploding. 


"Wa'alaikumsalam's chat. Alva ...."


Safira immediately pulled the young man's body, then hugged him. He shed a cry of longing for Alva. The man was eager to stroke the girl's back, but was afraid to hurt her.


"My A– is so happy. Finally able to meet you again," said Safira still hugged Alva tightly. The girl did not want to let go of her heart.


"I'm the same. It's so good to see you again. It was like a dream, to the point that just before I went in, asked Papa Rama to pinch me" Alva replied.


"What's? Which one was pinched with Papa? Not sick?" asked Safira who let go of her embrace to examine Alva's body.


"Not sick. All the pain I felt from being away from you, all melted and disappeared, after seeing you," replied Alva.


Sapphira's face that was pale, now looks blushing. A very rare occurrence Alva said dreadful words to him. A sweet smile immediately expands from lips that look pale.


"Why see me like that? I'm ugly, yes, because I'm bald" asked Safira, who now has no hair on her head because she was bald.


The girl's head gets a few stitches in two places. At the temples extend above the ears and at the back of the head, although not too deep, but the wound is quite wide.


"You're always pretty in my eyes. Especially if you wear a hijab," replied Alva with a smile.


Safira's face was warming up and emitting smoke so shameful to hear the chatter from the mouth of his heart. Smiles and eye glances were timidly shown by the girl. Her feelings are also flowery with a variety of colors. To the point of feeling that there was a rainbow in his heart.


"I'm no longer the girl who has perfect physique because my legs can't walk yet" said Safira whose smile suddenly disappeared given this reality.


Alva was still staring longingly at the girl. A handsome smile also still adorned his face. The young man finally said, "I will be your foot, wherever you want to go."


Hearing those words Safira instead cried bitterly. He felt happy, moved, and wanted to pounce on the young man, then carry him into his arms.


"Why are you crying like Alfie?" alva asked who wiped the clear liquid on Sapphira's cheek gently so as not to hurt her.


Doctor Rama even chuckled amusedly at the behavior of the two young people. He strongly believed that Alva would be a good husband for Safira later. That young man, in addition to loving his eldest daughter, he would also be able to become a priest for her.


'Alhamdulillah, it is not in vain that I had a great fight with Shinta and George to be able to bring Sapphira. Now I see a smile and a radiance of happiness from him, Doctor Rama.


"Chealing soon, yes! So that we can get married as soon as possible" Alva said with a rumbling heart.


He felt that saying these words was heavier than before, when he first said he would marry Sapphira. In the past, the girl was always afraid of losing herself when investigating human trafficking cases. To convince and calm himself, the man promised to take care of himself because he wanted to marry her.


Safira was stunned when she heard Alva's words just now. He's back processing the brain for what he just listened to. 


"Me–marriage? A–ku same ka–mu?" ask Safira.


"Yes, of course. Do you not want to marry me anymore?" ask Alva back.
