The nightmare of waiting in the operating room is over already. Ozi was already on top of the blankar that was pushed towards the ICU room. Their steps were so hasty, offsetting the footsteps of the Long medics.
“Family please wait here. Soon the doctor will give an explanation.” A medical officer said as he arrived at the door of the ICU.
“Good sus. Thank you.” Bella breathed a sigh of relief as she was finally able to see Ozi come out safely. His head was covered in bandages and was unconscious.
“Good, we excuse.” The door closed and Bella's body felt weak.
They have to sit around waiting. Saras is between Bella and Devan, while the Inca is accompanied by Ibra. The girl never went anywhere. She felt as anxious as Bella.
Anthony looked out of a room. He still wears a blue suit typical of the operating room.
“Please to my room, there is something we need to explain.” Her request.
“Good doc.” Sahut Devan's.
Devan turned to Bella, “We both entered yes. Mamah let in temenin same Inca and Ibra.”
“Iya.” Bella agrees.
“Mamah wait here.. Adek same Devan not long kok.”
Saras just nodded weakly. He had no power to hear anything anymore.
“Ka, titip mamah bentar ya.” The Inca.
“Iya. Relax, my aunt and Ibra.” Replaced Inca sat down beside Saras and let him lean.
Antony's doctor showed a black and white image on his monitor.
“Operation we did well. The tumor has been successfully removed with a diameter of 7.4 cm. Its size is quite large and it has already pressed some small nerves in its head.”
“What condition can be recovered as usual doc?” This is the fear Ozi once told Bella.
“The patient is currently still unconscious but so far the response is still quite good. We will observe for the next few days in the ICU room and easily the prognosis is getting better.” The light of doctor Anthony.
Although not very familiar with the picture they see, but Bella can see the picture of the white circle in the left picture is no longer in the right picture.
“Thank you doc for the help. We hope the patient can wake up soon.” Devan clasped Bella's cold hand.
“Sure. We'll wait for the anesthetic effect to go away. The patient should be awake by tomorrow morning. For now, the family can rest first because the patient can not be met. Let the medics monitor him all night.” Anthony's doctor's smile at the end of his sentence seemed to confirm that Bella and Devan could calm down.
“Good doc, thank you.” Say both at the same time. They finally breathed.

That afternoon Bella asked Inka and Ibra to go home first. According to the doctor's explanation, if Ozi can not be seen because of his unstable condition. He was worried that if everyone was in the hospital, maybe one of them could get sick.
Luckily they agreed and immediately complied with Bella's request even though they were still anxious.
“Mah,.” Bella approached Saras who was standing in front of the glass of Ozi's room.
His hand gently rubbed the glass surface as if stroking the figure of his son who was asleep on a hospital bed.
Only from here Saras and family are allowed to see, even then not always, only at certain hours.
“Abang strong boy,” Saras started his sentence with raucous. He realized Bella was looking at him.
“At the age of just one year, he can already step foot with minimal grip.” Saras smiled slightly, proud of his son.
“Even if she falls, she very rarely cries. There he even laughed, making mamah and papah laugh.”
“She also rarely hurts...” But this time Saras's voice choked. His breathing sounded heavy.
“When mama is sick, she must go back and forth to the room and accompany mamah.” Saras drooped lethargic with his hands resting on the glass.
“He said, he has a spell for mamah that will make mamah always strong.” Her crying broke.
“Simsalabim, tsuyokunaru!” Say Bella and Saras together.
Saras was stunned as Bella chanted the same spell Ozi had. It seems Saras is quite surprised to hear Bella also knows the secret spell he and Ozi.
“Tsuyokunaru, meaning strong.” Bella said as if answering the curiosity of Saras.
Saras heard Bella's words.
Bella then looked at Ozi with a smile. He remembered that when Bella was depressed and Ozi accompanied him, the word that Ozi muttered every time he looked at her face.
“Every one of us is sick and brother is so worried about us, brother will say the mantra. A spell to strengthen our physical and mental."
"Maybe in his subconscious, my brother is saying the mantra mah.”
“That mantra also applies to us at this time, strengthening our mental deterioration.”
Bella looked at her mother who was looking at her. “Don't we and brother have to be equally strong?” Bella asked softly. She wiped the tears on her cheeks and smiled at Ozi.
“Yes, right bang? You want me to be equally mamah also strong against all this?” Back Ozi who looked at him.
Devan who stood beside Bella also terrenuh see Bella's efforts to toughen up. He squeezed Bella's shoulders to strengthen her and kissed the woman's head fondly. He did not expect, Bella tried to stand up hard in the face of a big storm in the middle of her family.
“Iya darling.” Lirih Saras leaned her head against Bella's shoulder.
Bella wrapped her hands around Saras' back and held him tightly from the side.
The three looked at Ozi inside there expectantly so that the man could get well soon.
“Gue promised that I would love to bang. Nemenin in the moment you face the greatest pain and fear lo.” Bella's whisper in her heart. He spoke as if he was having a dialogue with Ozi.
“Lo don't worry, I'll always be here. Same mama and Devan, without constantly crying. I know, you're most angry when you see me cry. Then look, I'm strong now bang. Lo directed me to choose the right man and now he stands beside me.”
Bella smiled at Devan. She held her husband's hand in her left hand. Devan's existence means a lot to him.
“Now, don't worry about me anymore. Sometimes be selfish for yourself, for your recovery."
"Rest and tomorrow you wake up in a better state.”
“Gue love lo, bang.” Inner Bella cheers on her sister.
