"Darling, what's wrong with you?" nyimas asked when he saw the look on Arumi's face paled.
The woman had just returned from a meeting of all orphanage foundation donors with her social gang friends in the Bogor area. Since this morning he was outside the house so the task of guarding the twins was delegated to Tini's mother.
Arumi pulled back her legs that she straightened on the sofa next door so that now the smooth legs dangle down. Slightly shifting the body, and let Nyimas sit next to him. "Ma, I just saw the news on television saying that the elite apartment in the West Jakarta area had been burned down. There were about twenty fire victims, two of whom were seriously injured."
"Then, what does that fire have to do with you, son, to make your face pale like this!" Nyimas's eyebrows are shrinking, his brain is guessing for itself what has really happened as long as he is not home.
Arumi turned her body towards Nyimas, now the position of the woman facing the mother. Then he replied, "The apartment unit is the residence of Papa Firdaus and Aunt Lena, Ma. I'm afraid bad things happen to them."
Nyimas looked surprised to hear Arumi's words. The woman's eyeballs were perfectly wide. The sound choked and the heart stopped beating. But he tried to act ordinary. There is no news yet regarding the name of the victim in the fire.
The woman cleared her throat to get rid of the chunks of cactus that block the throat. "Don't tell me that you think that your father-in-law was one of the victims of the fire" he guessed, squinting at Arumi.
"However, unfortunately, I think so, Ma. Imagine how Papa Firdaus and Aunt Lena could save themselves with their current physical condition. The possibility of escaping from the flames was extremely impossible. Moreover, the red whiz crept quickly to almost devour some apartment units in the building," said Arumi explained what was in his mind at this time.
The beautiful woman in a broken white hijab combined with a navy long dress tried to take a deep breath to control herself so as not to look anxious in front of Arumi. To be honest he was quite worried about his iron situation, but Nyimas tried to be calm and believe in himself if Lena and Firdaus would be fine.
"Yes ..who knew at the time of the incident, Jeng Lena and Mr. Firdaus had been evacuated by two of his personal nurses so they could survive the blaze. Didn't you say yourself that Jeng Lena immediately asked for an additional nurse to take care of your Father-in-law?"
"Yes, Ma, but still I'm not sure if those two nurses can help Papa and Aunt Lena get out of that building." Arumi still insisted on his opinion. Somehow, he seemed to get a hunch if the in-laws and stepmother of the husband were not in good condition. "What if they're hurt, Ma, what am I supposed to do?" tanyanya. The woman was quite frustrated. He squeezed the long, wiggly fingers against each other.
Nyimas inched closer to Arumi until there was no distance between them. He could feel how his son was feeling right now. Then, he reached out to touch the shoulders of his beloved son. "Don't think negatively first, son. What you may think is not true. We don't yet know the latest information from the survivors. It could be that Jeng Lena and Mr. Firdaus survived." Gently rubbing tried to calm Arumi so as not to worry anymore. "Don't think too hard, it can be stressful later. If you get stressed, get sick, then Triplet who takes care of it? They must be fussy because Mother is sick."
Nyimas glanced towards the golden peacock-shaped wall clock on the television. "It's four o'clock in the afternoon anyway, it's time for Triplet to take a shower. You better bathe them."
"Son Rayyan is coming home from the hospital soon. If he finds out you're thinking about Mr. Firdaus and Jeng Lena, there must be a third war between you. Mom didn't want that to happen. It's a pity for Triplet to know his parents are fighting." Nyimas gave a little advice to his beloved daughter.
The sound of rough breathing comes from Arumi. He almost forgot that Rayyan was coming home from work soon. If not reminded maybe now he is still sitting pensively while guessing the state of Paradise and also Lena.
"Yes, then I go to the room first. Mama don't forget to rest. Must be tired for a few hours sitting in the car" Arumi said before leaving Nyimas.
"Yes. Mom's coming to the room soon. It's over there, bathe the twins!" Nyimas notices Arumi's back is getting longer and longer to disappear from view.
After making sure the door of the main room was tightly closed, Nyimas took out a flat object from inside his hand bag. Then find the number of someone he knows.
"Sorry, the number you are going to is off or out of reach. Try a few more moments." There was the voice of the operator across the street when Nyimas tried to contact Lena.
The relationship between Nyimas and Lena is quite good. Although the two women rarely met because of their respective activities, they still took the time to exchange news through a short message in green. Because Rayyan did not forbid her in-laws to meet the second wife of Paradise, of course she was free to meet the woman. Whenever and wherever Nyimas wants to meet or contact Lena even though just say hello, the man of Chinese descent from the mother's side will not scold him.
However, the case is different if Arumi is in the position of Nyimas. Rayyan will be furious if she finds out that her beloved wife contacted or asked Firdaus and Lena without her permission.
"I'd better take a shower. Instead of sitting here and my mind wandering everywhere. After relaxing, I just called Jeng Lena again." Then, Nyimas got up and stepped into the guest room. The body feels tired from a day of playing with orphanage children. Although tired but happy heart because it can share happiness with underprivileged children and orphans.

Meanwhile, at a hospital not far from the scene of the fire, it appeared that several medical personnel were running back and forth to and fro carrying a gurney to the IGD room. The sounds of screams, cries and groans of pain echoed throughout the room.
That afternoon, the type C hospital in the West Jakarta area became a sea of people. Many victims of the fire were taken to the hospital to get first aid. Doctors and nurses working together provide assistance to patients in need.
Of the many evacuated, two were Firdaus and Lena. The condition of the couple was quite alarming, while Arman was declared dead in a fire incident. His charred body was burned along with valuable papers and jewelry looted from the residence of Paradise.
As a result of greedy and greedy nature makes Arman dark eyes even when death pick up the property of others is still in his body's arms. However, everything had become ashes without a trace. If only that morning he had not followed his ex-wife maybe now the mumps-haired man could still breathe fresh air, improve themselves to become better human beings and start a new life regardless of the shadow of the past as a former prisoner (convict). However, he did not take advantage of the opportunity God gave him. He died in terrible circumstances.
"Doctor, what about the two middle-aged patients who were victims of the fire were they okay?" ask Puspa. He immediately rushed over to a middle-aged man wearing a white snelli who was standing in the doorway.
The senior doctor took a deep breath, then exhaled slowly. "Are you a patient's family?" tanyanya.
Puspa shook his head quickly. "No, Doctor. I'm their personal nurse."
"You should contact the patient's family, because the condition of both patients is critical."
The home care nurse's forehead shriveled, looking at the senior doctor full of question marks. "What's the criticism, Doc?"
The senior doctor was silent for a moment. "Both patients are critical. They had burns on their faces. Hands and feet were seriously burned. His heart rate is also weakening. I will take patients to the ICU room, because they are now unconscious or in a coma."
Puspa almost lost his word when he heard the explanation from the doctor. The woman felt guilty, as her negligence caused the patient's apartment unit to burn and the couple fell victim to the fire with the most serious burns among others. In fact, one person died because of his mistake.
"Miss should contact the patient's family. I do not guarantee that both patients can survive longer, especially the condition of male patients inhale too much fire smoke and it is quite dangerous for health. So my advice, call the patient's family immediately before it's too late."
No words said. Puspa did not think that the situation of Paradise and Lena would be that severe. Guilt continues to haunt the woman. If only he had not forgotten to turn off the stove, and more carefully maybe this incident did not happen to the couple.
"I still have to take care of the patients again. Excuse me, Miss," said the doctor, retreating from the presence of Puspa.
Now Puspa lives alone in front of the IGD room. He looked up while looking straight ahead. 'Oh my God, what have I done? Why would I harm innocent people?' his inner.
