Earth Without Dusk
54. Hospital

Nesya is immediately taken to the hospital by Adrian and also Tari. He immediately received treatment from the doctor who was there. Nesya only got bruises due to collisions around her elbow and head. There was a slight wound on his forehead but it was not too severe, not even he needed to get stitches. What made Nesya fainted until unconscious until now was precisely the influence of alcohol in her body.

“How is my son, doctor?” adrian asked anxiously as his son finished his examination.

“Bapak just relax. There are no serious injuries. Maybe in a few hours your son will be conscious. The father is also under the influence of alcohol, that is why he has not been conscious until now,” replied the doctor gave an explanation.

“Alright, thank you doctor. I would also like to ask the doctor to keep a secret about my child being under the influence of alcohol. I don't want this news to ruin my family's good name,” pinta Adrian.

“Good, Sir. It was my duty as a doctor to keep the patient secret. Then excuse me.”

“Please, doctor.”

After the doctors left, Adrian and Tari approached the hospital bed where Nesya lay there with her forehead plastered and hands stuck in an infusion tube.

“Honey, I think we have to be harder on Nesya,” said Adrian who felt his son had crossed the relationship limit.

“Let him heal first. Don't be so hard on her, see what happens when you're too hard on her. He even got an accident like this,” denied Dance. Dance always pampered Nesya and defended her only puppet princess. He was never hard on Nesha for fear that her son would rebel.

“So, you mean it's all my fault she fell down the stairs? If he didn't come home late and didn't come home drunk, it wouldn't be like this. Ask Liliana or Andika, what time is Dusk at home after work? Compare that to Nesya! Is it wrong if I want her to be a good woman who does not wander obscurely every night?” Adrian even emotions hear his wife always defend his son.

The dance that saw her husband begin to get carried away with emotion immediately embraced her husband's arm and quickly apologized. She knew her husband was worried about their daughter.

“Iya, Darling. I-i understand. I'm sorry. Yes, I'm going with you. But please, let Nesya recover first. Just let's talk to him, yeah.”

Adrian breathed heavily. “Good. Yes already, we rest on the sofa first while waiting for him to realize.”

Adrian and Tari went to sleep for a while on the sofa while waiting for Nesya to wake up.

The next morning, around eight o'clock, Mr. Dirgantara and his wife visited the hospital where Nesya was treated. Before long Andika and Liliana also arrived there at about the same time.

Earlier this morning, Adrian had indeed told them that Nesya had entered the hospital due to falling from the stairs. Adrian thinks it's better they know from his own mouth that Nesya is in the hospital.

“Nesya, geez, why did it fall down the stairs, darling?” asked Liliana who was anxious to see the condition of her nephew lying on the bed. As soon as he entered the room where Nesya was treated, he could not wait to get to his nephew.

“Nesya is still sleepy, Aunt. But Nesya was also thirsty. So unconsciously, slipping on the stairs of time to take a drink in the kitchen,” answered Nesya lying while glancing at her father. It was the answer that he and his family had planned if anyone asked.

“Ih, you are this. You should have gallons and a dispenser in your room. If this is the danger,” Liliana's nag.

“Iya, Aunt. Next time Nesya will provide drinks in the room,” replied Nesya slowly.

“I'm sorry to make you and your family anxious. I only intend to tell the state of Nesya,” said Adrian who felt guilty.

“No, no problem. We better know directly from you, Mr.” replied Mr. Dirgantara.

Nesya seemed to wander around like she was looking for someone. Mr. Dirgantara also understood who was being sought by his future son-in-law.

“Are you looking for Earth?” ask Mr. Dirgantara.

“Hmmm yes, Om,” replied Nesya shyly. “He where?” tanyanya.

“He can't see you now. There are still important meetings to attend. Maybe later in the afternoon he can just come here,” replied Mr. Dirgantara.

“Wah, you're sick still thinking about your future fiance. Very romantic,” seloroh Liliana who got elbow from her husband.

“No need to discuss it,” whispered Andika to his wife who talked a lot. Liliana was silent again and smiled awkwardly.

“Which Dusk, Auntie?” ask Nesya.

“Senja also has a meeting with a client from Japan he said,” replied Liliana.

“True. Maybe Dusk here later afternoon or afternoon after work,” added Andika. 

Nesya just nodded in response.

“Lain times, be careful again yes, Nes. Soon you will be engaged to Earth. You both need to stay healthy. Do not move much first, do not get tired, so that the engagement event will be in good condition,” said Mr. Dirgantara's wife to the prospective daughter-in-law.

"Rubber, Nesya. You should just care at home to be more beautiful when your engagement event later. Do not have much activity outside first," added Liliana.

“Hmmm.iya, Aunt. Nesya will reduce activity outside,” said Nesya obediently to look good in front of the family of her future father-in-law.

Inwardly, Adrian cursed his own son. If they found out Nesya last night fell down the stairs because of drunkenness, maybe then the match between Nesya and Earth will be canceled. But Adrian certainly didn't want that to happen. Therefore at this time he could only succumb first by covering up the disgrace of his own son.

Seriate...
