Being a Dad to My Niece
Chapters 167. Failed to Meet
Chapter 167
Hearing the news that both parents had an accident, Alva's body felt numb. His entire Indra panca feels dysfunctional. He also felt like he was in an empty world.
Arshy, who was holding Alfi, was surprised to see his brother's situation. He called out his name, but there was no response or retribution.
"Sir, uh, brother, help me!" shouted Arshy while waving his hand.
Fortunately there were two men wearing snelli, walking towards them. The two men are koas' friends with Alva.
"Hey, Alva! What's up?" ask one of them who has a tall body. Alva was still silent.
"We just take it to the waiting room" said another.
Alva is carried by a man who has a large tall body. The other colleague with Arshy followed from behind. They gave eucalyptus oil on his shoulders, chest, and nose Alva. One colleague massaged the big toe of her brother Arshy's.
"Astaghfirullahal. Arsh ...." Alva looked towards her sister.
Arshy and Alfi were crying next to the gurney. The girl was increasingly confused by her current state.
"Sister .. Why is sister like this too? I'm scared," said Arshy.
Alva wakes up and hugs Arshy's body with her adopted daughter. The young man was trying hard to face this fate. Now he has to figure out the situation of his parents.
The head of the hospital and the senior doctor gave the dispensation to Alva to go home first. All the tasks of the young man were also completed and the schedule to go home was about an hour away.
Alva, Arshy, and Alfi go to the hospital where the victims of the accident get treatment. They enter the space ER looking for the presence of Marsha and Arga.
"Dad!" arga's forehead is covered by bandages, indicating there is a wound there.
"You ...." Arga did not continue his words as Arshy directly lunged at his body and hugged tightly while crying.
The girl was indeed the closest and was greatly pampered by Arga. The adult man calmed his daughter down, if she had only minor injuries to her head, hands, and feet.
"Dad, where's mother?" ask Alva.
"Mother is sleeping" answered Arga softly.
They're heading to the corner room. Marsha was lying on the bed of the patient. The woman did not see any wounds on her face or hands.
"Mother has a bruise on the arm. The doctor said he was just in shock, because he saw Dad's face covered in blood," Arga said as he stroked his head.
There was a sense of relief now felt by Alva. The shadow of fear she lost both her parents is now gone.
"Alhamdulillah. Father and Mother did not suffer any serious injuries. God is still protecting us both" Arga and Alva nodded.
There were actually several victims who died and were seriously injured. Everyone has received treatment from the hospital's medical team.
If you see the state of the car driven by Arga dents in the driver, you certainly suspect the victim will be seriously injured or even die. However, fate said otherwise, Arga's situation is still much better with such injuries.

Marsha siuman ahead of magrib. It was so obvious that the woman was looking for her husband. She cried out in Arga's name.
"Darling, I'm fine. It is precisely you who worries me" said Arga who was embraced by Marsha.
"I'm scared, Mom. Your head was spitting out a lot of blood, just now. I'm afraid of you why-why," replied Marsha who was still crying awkwardly.
Alva and Arshy are happy because both parents are in good shape and the injuries are not severe. They came home from the hospital after Isha.

Safira's mood since yesterday has flowered because the idol will come with his parents and their adopted children. A sweet smile continued to be carved from his face which was now in color, not pale anymore.
It just so happens that he has also started walking therapy, although treatment will continue in Indonesia. The wounds on his head and legs have improved in healing.
"Which can't wait to meet the white riding prince, just keep glancing at the clock" said Doctor Rama teasing his daughter.
"Papa, I've never experienced anything like this! In the past, it was also the same when I would meet the Mother Goddess. In fact, Papa is worse than me" Safira replied.
There was a sound of Safira's cell phone call. The girl smiled widely when she saw the name of her lover imprinted there.
"Assalamualaikum, Alva." Safira with the spirit of four five said his greetings.
"Wa'alaikumsalam, Fira," Alva replied in a soft voice.
"Have you arrived?" Safira saw the clock on the wall. If you look at the current time it will feel fast up to the usual departure time taken by Alva.
"I apologized before, because we did not go to Singapore because Father and Mother had an accident, it was on the way to Jakarta."
"Innalilahi wa innailaihi. But, Daddy and Mommy are okay?" asked Sapphira with teary eyes.
"Alhamdulillah, only minor injuries are not severe. After treatment, they can go home just now. They're also sad about not being able to see you there."
"It's okay. Tomorrow I can also go back to Indonesia. We'll meet tomorrow, okay?" ask the girl with great hope.
"God willing. I'll pick you up at the airport. You and Papa Rama leave at noon, right?" ask Alva back.
"Yes." Yeah."
"Tomorrow I'll accompany you before working hours."
"You will be tired" said Safira.
"I'm tired of being lost if I get close to you" Alva replied.
Safira immediately misbehaved and smiled shyly at Alva's words. I think he wants to meet the young man soon.
"You go to bed soon. So that tomorrow your body is fit and can travel."
Safira put the phone on the nightstand. There's sadness because Alva didn't come here. Moreover, hearing the news of the accident that befell his two prospective in-laws. However, he must remain an emotional stability so as not to affect his health. The girl did not want her situation to worsen and later even made her fail to return to Indonesia.
"What's wrong?" ask Doctor Rama who just went back in after coming out for a while.
"Alva did not come, because Father and Mother had an accident while traveling to Jakarta. I feel sad and guilty, Pa. They come to Jakarta because they will follow Alva coming here," Safira replied.
"Yes. Papa also just got word from Momu—Dewi. Arga and Marsha have an accident. But, Papa does not know what kind of condition," said Doctor Rama.
"He said they had minor injuries" Safira said.
"Why am I and Alva always so hard to be together, huh, Pa? Are Alva and I really not a match so many things are a barrier to our relationship?" ask Safira with a witty.
