Joana kept quiet, not knowing what she was thinking. When entering Ammar's nursery, he looked dreamy. The woman is too nervous if her parents must know now about the status of the man who is now her lover.
Vaguely Joana heard Ammar who was receiving a call, maybe it was a business that Ammar had left for a few days because of circumstances that did not allow him to work.
Joana sees Ammar immediately disconnecting her phone call once she and her parents are aware of her.
Joana starts the conversation by introducing her parents and sees Ammar smiling warmly. Only there and Joana returned to daydreaming without listening to the conversation what Ammar and his parents did.
"No need, it's me who wants to apologize for failing to look after Joana" said Ammar and Joana heard it at a glance. He focused too much on his own thoughts, until the voice of the Mother managed to surprise him.
"Is there anything you want to say, Jo?" ask Julia, please,
"Y-yes? N-no.." Joana shook her head because she did not understand what happened, she did not listen to their conversation.
"You daydreaming?" Now that Ammar's voice asked him, Joana shook her head again.
"What are you thinking?" ammar asked as he looked at the woman sitting on the chair next to his nursery bed.
"Nothing." she said.
Joana's parents looked at each other again. They agreed to leave Ammar's room early.
"All right, I hope you recover soon. We're sorry and I hope you'll see us again one day" Nathan said in his Indonesian language, which was unfamiliar to Ammar.
"Sure, I will personally see you again at a later time" replied Ammar and Joana looking at his face with a look of shock.
What were they talking about?- inside Joana.
"Jo, are you staying?" julia asked Joana and Joana nodded.
"Well, Mama and Daddy went home first. Don't come home too late, My Little Sweety" Julia said as she stroked Joana's shoulder and Joana smiled at a glance. He led his parents to the front door.
Not long after the departure of Joana's parents, now the second turn of Doni's parents who entered to visit Ammar.
Ammar's acquaintance and conversation with Uncle Erland and Aunty Maria was short, they asked Ammar's situation and they also brought fruits and a bouquet of flowers that turned out to be from Joana's parents.
"They were so excited to meet your lover, Jo. Until they forget to leave the bouquet with us outside." Kelakar Erland - the Uncle.
Joana just smiled knotlessly without a word.
After everything came home, Joana saw Ammar who was also looking at her. Ammar looked at her with a probing gaze and Joana felt awkward being stared at like that. He folded his arms around his chest and tried to turn his eyes in any direction so as not to see a flash of curiosity in Ammar's eyes.
Ammar wanted to open his voice to ask what had happened to the woman who had suddenly been silent since then, but the sound of the door being opened managed to make the two men turn their heads.
"Ah, there's Joana." Latifa stared warmly at Joana. "Sorry Mama's late, Mar. Mama takes care of Shaka and Lesya's needs who are going to school first." Reciprocity. Now, Latifa looked at Joana and Ammar alternately.
"It's okay, Ma."
"How are you doing?"
"I'm improving and everything's fine" replied Ammar.
"Have you cleaned your body?"
"Here you go, Ma."
"Did Joana help you?" Latifa asked in a seductive tone.
"No, Joana came after I cleaned myself up. I was helped by a nurse." replied Ammar.
"What is a female nurse?" goda Latifa again, once in a while he glanced at Joana.
Ammar was silent, he also stared at Joana at a glance and Joana remained silent but her face turned strange in the eyes of Ammar. Would this woman be jealous if she said the one cleaning her body was the female nurse? Ah, Ammar wants to test it.
"Two female nurses" replied Ammar, staring at Joana's frowning face at her answer. Ammar gave a smile looking at Joana's expression.
"Ah, that means you don't have to worry about this anymore. Mama's worried you can't clean yourself. Mama wants to stay and take care of you but the kids still need Mama's help at home. They couldn't possibly stay at Kinan's house any longer because it would be so troublesome." Latifa kept on making a sound.
"Then I'll stay here and take care of you" the woman said with a clumsy smile.
"But your parents asked you to come home before it was late, I don't think that's necessary." said Ammar.
"There can be no excuse!" joana stared intently at Ammar. "I'm going to send my mom a message." she continued.
Somehow imagining Ammar who is not guarded by anyone at night, makes Joana feel unbearable. However, Ammar is like this too because he wants to help him. Ammar is hurt by having to deal with Xander and that too because of their relationship. Joana will not bear to see Ammar who is still difficult to move must be alone in this sickroom.
There are doctors and nurses, but why does it feel unbearable? Especially hearing Ammar's story about the process of cleaning his body which was assisted by two female nurses. It was enough to make Joana surprised, although maybe the nurses will do their job professionally but considering the body of her lover must be touched by another woman, inexplicably it makes a Joana not accept. I don't know, he felt useless if until Ammar asked for help from others when there was him in the life of Ammar. He would feel happy if he was bothered and involved in taking care of Ammar.
...🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸...
Afternoon incarnate and Ammar has just finished work from his personal laptop. Still in the infirmary, he also realized the situation around and glanced at Joana who seemed to fall asleep on the sofa with a sitting position and head propped up on the top of the sofa.
Ammar felt unbearable, he wanted to make Joana's sleeping position comfortable, because he was afraid that the woman would suddenly have neck pain if he saw her sleeping position looking up.
"Joe.." Several times he tried to call Joana to wake her up but it seemed that she was fast asleep.
Ammar glanced at the infusion hose that was still injected in his hand, he clucked and ruffled his hair. The man then tried to sit with difficulty. Although painful in some parts of his body were injured, but he managed to take an infusion pole to hold it. Ammar convinced himself to stand up and push the infusion pole to get close to Joana.
Ammar grimaced a few times until finally the position of his body actually stood up and stepped on the floor. He slowly walked over to the sofa, wanting to touch the sleeping woman's hair. Somehow the feeling of longing is so overwhelming when Joana is in front of him almost every day. The relationship between the two is not too far away but Ammar feels a feeling that explodes near the woman.
Ammar looked at Joana's sleeping face, the corner of his lips raised. He smiled as the pounding in his heart felt more and more so, he wanted to touch the woman's cheek, stroke her and re-hugged Joana like when he found her in Xander's study. It was their first hug. Ammar wants to repeat the feeling of hugging Joana again but not with the same situation and conditions.
"Joe.." Ammar touched Joana's cheek to wake her up. It was like he was just holding the woman and justifying his position without waking her but that was impossible given the condition of his body that was still like now.
Without Ammar noticing, his hand slowly spread to Joana's tightly closed lips. He touched the lips with his finger and glimpsed the thought, what if the lips he touched with his lips? Ammar then imagined if the touch turned into a soft, warm and sweet kiss.
What the fuck is my mind?- Ammar.
Ammar awakens from his wild thoughts, and at that time Joana awakens as a result of Ammar's touch on his lips.
Joana's eyes opened suddenly and Ammar was surprised when he realized that, he hurriedly pulled his own finger which had dared to explore the softness of Joana's lips.
"What's up, Ammar?" joana asked with a hoarse voice.
Ammar. He did not dare to look into Joana's eyes looking at him with a curious look.
"Gosh.." Joana suddenly stood up instantly, she looked surprised, making Ammar surprised because of his reflex movements. Did Joana realize it?
"What's wrong?" ammar asked no less surprised by Joana's reaction.
"You standing?" Joana looked at the patient's bed and Ammar took turns, as if measuring the distance from there to where Ammar was standing now. "You walk from there?" tanyanya's confused.
Ammar shrugged his shoulders. "Of course, can I fly?" answer Ammar. Joana rolled her eyeballs.
"Let's help you get back to your bed."
"You want us to get in bed?" ammar's sneaky grin and glittering eyes are caught in Joana's vision.
Joana catches another meaning from Ammar's smile. "What are you thinking? Don't keep joking! Let's goback!" Joana immediately helped Ammar to return to his place.
Not yet in his bed, Ammar complained of pain.
"Arkh..Aaww.." sizzle Ammar.
"Huh? Wh why? You're all right? joana asked frantically, she unconsciously held and felt a wound on Ammar's chest.
Ammar smiled briefly, but unfortunately Joana did not see his cunning grin.
"You're moving too much, what do you really need?" Joana panicked and hurriedly helped Ammar to immediately sit in front of the bed.
"It's late in the afternoon, it's time for me to cleanse my body. Can you help me clean up?" ask Ammar and it was successful to make Joana gawk with her mouth open. Joana is not willing if Ammar's body is held by a female nurse, but she is also too embarrassed to help Ammar clean the body. Then, what should he do now? The woman's face began to heat up.
...Seriate......
