Grasping Longs
Part~16's

Before going to the hospital, Ariana made sure to go to her son's school and it turned out that day Ricko came home sooner than his hour.

Looks like the boy tried to go home by himself, then crossed the highway. Ariana's house is not far from the other side of the school.

Along the way to the hospital, Ariana can only curse herself. If only he had a smart phone, then he would know the info from the school.

But poverty that shackled his life, making him unable to buy the phone. Even the money he saved the rest from his work at the nightclub a month ago, was only a million left over for covering his daily needs when his stall was deserted.

Arriving at the hospital Ariana immediately went to the emergency unit looking for the whereabouts of the son.

"Doctor how is my son getting hit and run in front of his school ?" ariana asked a doctor there.

"So you're his mother? come with me your child is being treated by a doctor." the doctor took Ariana to another room.

There, Ricko's homeroom teacher is waiting in front of a closed room.

"Bu Ariana." call the homeroom teacher.

"How is my son Mom, how can he have a hit-and-run" said Ariana.

"Ricko's still working in Mom and I'm sorry, but today's kids came home early and we told them in the class group. I've also sent a message to Mr. Herman, I think he's the one who picked up Ricko."

"Her Hermas is working out of town" said Ariana.

"Rin, how's Ricko doing ?" Widya who just came seemed to walk in a hurry to approach Ariana.

"Still in the mbak."

"You've calmed down, Ricko must be fine." Widya seems to calm Ariana down.

Moments later, the doctor is seen coming out of the room where Ricko is being treated.

"Doctor what about my son ?" cecar Ariana's.

"You're his mother ?" ask the doctor.

"Right doc."

"Look ma'am, the wound the mother's son experienced was quite severe on his leg. Inevitably we have to do surgery immediately, if we let it happen we are afraid of infection and lead to amputation" said the doctor.

Ariana suddenly limp, his son is very fond of playing ball. What if his leg was amputated, Ricko would definitely be crushed.

"And I hope the mother immediately prepares 200 million money for the cost of surgery on both legs and the next treatment" said the doctor.

The deg!!

"Two hundred million? the money from which even my savings money is only a million left in my wallet."

"When does my son have to be operated on, Doc ?"

"Hardly in these two days, ma'am." said the Doctor.

After explaining the details to Ariana, the doctor immediately left the place.

"Propay ma'am, the school will definitely help even if it's not that big" said Ricko.

"Thank you, Mom." said Ariana.

Soon after, homeroom teacher Ricko decides to go back to school.

"Rin, I have 20 million savings you can use first." Widya bargained.

"No, it's savings mbak and mas Herman." declined Ariana.

"Where are you going to find money? 200 Million is not a little." Widya felt sorry for Ariana.

"Come on, mbak." Ariana seemed to massage her temple which suddenly hurt.

On the other hand, Demian seemed to have just stepped down from the plane. "Mas, how are you? what better ?" monica asked when they were in the car.

Demian, sitting at the wheel with Victor, only cleared his throat to hear the words of his wife.

"Daddy must be healthy again, Daddy's strong." said Olive who sat next to her mother.

Almost a month ago, Demian was receiving heart treatment at a foreign hospital. Since an altercation with Ariana at a nightclub a month ago, Demian has had complications with his heart.

His blood pressure is suddenly unstable, causing a disturbance in his heart and his parents decide to take him abroad.

After driving his son and wife home, Demian immediately went to his office with Victor.

"Wouldn't you rest at home, sir." suggested Victor from behind his wheel.

"I've been resting for almost a month, Vic and I'm very healthy now as long as you know." Demian refused.

"Yes it seems so, you are so excited I see." said Victor.

"How's Vic doing? I miss him so much." Demian said, he appeared to be leaning back in his chair with a blank look forward.

"You better not think about it anymore, sir, because it happened that your health became unstable" suggested Victor.

"I've been healthy Victor and where I can forget Ariana, she's half my life. You know what makes me improve quickly, it's because I'm constantly thinking about it." Demian snorted in annoyance.

While Victor could only sigh, his superiors were very stubborn when it came to Ariana.

Arriving at his office, Demian immediately entered his room. Looks like this month, Victor's been working so hard that there's no work piling up on his desk.

"You can indeed count on it, Vic." murmured Demian as he sat himself in his great chair.

Then he opened his desk drawer, then took a small frame showing a picture of himself and Ariana 8 years ago.

"I miss you so much, how are you doing right now? even though you hate me but I'm sure sooner or later you'll be mine."

While Ariana now seems to think hard how to get the 200 million money.

"Am I borrowing it from Demian? yeah, that's the only way."

" Sir, I'll be gone for a while. Please take care of Ricko." please Ariana to Widya.

"Where are you going Rin ?"

"However I'll get the money, ma'am."

"What are you going to do Rin ?" Widya seemed very worried.

"So calm down, I know who can help me." said Ariana.

After seeing Ricko who was still unconscious, Ariana immediately left the hospital and went to Demian's office.

"Hopefully this is his office."

Ariana seemed to see the writing plastered on top of the skyscraper in front of him at this time.

Anggoro Perkasa is the company where Herman works and Demian becomes the owner of the company.

"Sorry who's looking for you ?" a security seems to pay attention to the appearance of Ariana is simple not typical office.

"I want to meet Mr. Demian." said Ariana.

Some of the security guard in the post seemed to laugh at each other.

During this time many classy women who tried to meet Demian alone, but everything was rejected.

Especially women who look like villages like Ariana, surely the woman is stressed, thought the security.

"Go mbak, this is not a place to look for donations." the security order.

"I beg you, sir. Let me in." pinta Ariana by cupping her hands together.

"Quick get out of here, before we force you out." another security snapped.

Seriate......

Can Ariana meet Demian ? 🤔🤔😅😅
