I've been here two days. Lying down restoring conditions. I practiced sitting in a gurney. Even though the back feels crumpled like stacked large stones.
The two women leave me every night. I also feel sorry, because of my situation they got stuck here. I also know, they must have their own activities.
I have to practice walking tonight. My sprained left leg and pain slowly began to improve. I sat down and started to get out of the gurney. The infusion in my hand is over and can be removed.
I limped, holding onto the gurney. I walked slowly like a baby learning to walk.
It's been two days lying down. It feels really uncomfortable.
When I started to walk. Suddenly only....
*Clack.....
Door opens.
"Isn't the visiting hour over? Why'd he come here?" my question is in my heart.
"Sorry, there's something left here. You... Can you get up and walk?" he asked while looking at me.
I nodded while saying.
"I started learning to sit and walk so I could get out of here fast. You must be having trouble taking care of me!" I'm not feeling good.
"Not to worry. My mother and I are not troubled by you. In fact I should have taken care of you for bumping into you that time." He slowly felt guilty.
"I'm fine now! so you don't have to worry." I smiled at him.
Netra we met each other. I just realized this face in front of me. This woman has a soft face. His eyes seemed to be holding a pressure. Her lips are thick with a beautiful color. His wide eyes looked at me without blinking. The face in front of me is beautiful and charming. It's different from the women I've known.
Her long black hair was broken.
Quickly divert my sight.
Our view is cut off.
"Ehm.this is what's left behind. Sorry if you were disturbed. Excuse me first!" He showed me a paper bag on the nightstand next to the gurney.
"Wait first! I don't know what your name is yet." Lirihku.
"Yes too. Sorry I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Alisa....are you?" He said, extending his hand.
"Didn't you know what my name was yesterday? have you forgotten?" Saying slowly.
"really?" He tried to remember.
"Oh .. Yes, Adi. Your name is Adi, right?" his hand is still running towards me.
He put his hand out while saying.
"Yes you're right. The story of Malik Jayadi. But you just call me Adi!" sanku.
"Well if it's like that. Please rest first, Adi. I'm going to Mother's house.
Good night." Her charming smile hypnotized my vision.
"Good night Alisa." I said, watching him leave in front of me.
"Malik, you've been playing girls all this time. You need to stop and find a mother for Nissa!" My mind curses itself.
I walked around my room. Once it feels strong enough to walk. I started to leave the room. There were some sisters standing guard at night. They looked at me with a faint smile.
I sat in the waiting room in a patient's shirt.
There's only a few people here. I was silent thinking about the fate ahead. Especially if I am in a city of people.

* Malik hometown.
That afternoon Sumiyati, Sugeng and Annisa were joking in front of his tiny television.
Sumiyati remembered something.
"Oh yes. Nissa, we'll call dad yuk!" He told Nissa.
"Yangti Yes. Nissa misses dad," she said.
Sumiyati called her son.
It was ringing from Malik's phone.
After several times in contact, Sumiyati frowned in surprise.
"Usually a child when called. Must have called me back. But this has been contacted five times, why not answered, sir?" Sumiyati said to Sugeng.
"You know, Malik is still sleeping, Mom. I'll know for myself, he'll be the port driver tonight." Sugeng lightly said.
"At first, I thought like my father. But, this time I feel anxious." Sumiyati.
"Mother this is so weird. Our son is already big. Look in front of us at the results. Don't worry too much about Malik. Especially he's mom's boy." Sugeng pointed at Annissa in front of him.
"Yes, sir, if it is like that. Mother will pray for our children to be safe and healthy always." Sumiyati praying.
"Aamiin," Sugeng laid his hands on his face in affirming the wife's prayer.
Nissa who saw and heard the chatter of her grandparents could only be mangosteen do not understand.
"Nissa's coming with Aamiin too isn't Yangti?" ask her while grinning widely.
"By dong." Sumiyati.
"Aamiin," he said as he kissed his own palm.
The three of them refocused on watching the show in front of him. Nissa, as usual, is busy with Molly and Barbie dolls.
A few moments later.
Thiililylilitate.
Sumiyati android phone voice ringing.
He looked at the screen of his phone by squinting his neutrals.
"Malik sir." He said to Sugeng.
"Assalamualaikum nak Malik." Sumiyati gave her regards.
"Waalaikumsalam. Sumiyati's mother isn't she?" ask the voice next door.
"Why not Malik's voice? where's the kid?" inner Sumiyati.
"Yes..I Sumiyati Malik's mother." Sumiyati.
"This who? where's my son?" ask Sumiyati again.
"I Praise. Dendi mbak's mother. How are you doing?" say the voice next door.
"Owalaah. Puji lestari's? I thought you weren't going home. Very well in the city of people. It's been three years since I've been home." Cecar Sumiyati.
"I plan to go home next year with my husband. But, there's a problem. So we're pulling our back." Added again.
"You're all right over there?" ask Sumiyati.
"We're here well. But, Malik....Malik." said Puji bertahan.
"Malik why? what's wrong with her? Where is he now Ji?" tanya Sumiyati.
"This is mbak."
Puji explained in detail the work of Dendi and Malik during this time. His voice is vibrating. He feels guilty for everything. A great calamity befell his son and Malik. Yes, although Malik is not known to exist until now.
Sumiyati shed her tears. Those tears flowed hard. Because he was the one who forced and told Malik to wander with Dendi. He felt guilty about his decision at that time.
"Yes Allah. Where is Malik now Ji? can't you look for him?" asked Sumiyati who was beginning to despair.
"Sorry mbak. The interrogation process is still ongoing. We weren't allowed anywhere by boss David. We were picked up and delivered. Sorry, we can't help finding out where Malik is." Clearly Praise at length.
Sumiyati was still crying. Annissa and her husband looked at her in wonder. And still did not understand the direction of Sumiyati's conversation with the person on the other end of the phone.
After turning off his phone. Sumiyati told me about her son's current situation. It's been two days and two nights Malik has no news.
"Oh God, ma'am. Why are they this bad with Malik? our son is a good boy. I didn't think he would work like that. You're very disappointed." Sugeng's originally moody face turned furious.
Furious about the attitude of the Dendi family who had plunged his son in illegal work.
They mourn the fate of their only son. They hugged Annissa tightly. I hope the father of this child is found. Annissa who did not understand anything came crying in her grandparents' arms.
She felt sad to see her beloved grandparents crying.
Jayadi's family is filled with gray clouds.
Can they face life without their only son?.
