I'm Young Wife
S2_73'S CHAT. Serena Sick
The night is getting late. Nara and Alex's welcome home dinner is also long over. All the residents of the house even slept. Even Alex and Nara who usually still stay up are both asleep under their covers. Serena was not able to sleep. The woman had been trying to close her eyes ever since she laid her body on the bed. His body was obviously tired after the activity for the whole day. But somehow his eyes are still reluctant to be closed.
In this house, even though Mak Jum and the others were kind to her, Nara was also considerate of her. But he still feels lonely. He still had no one he could make as a backrest. There was nothing that could be called 'friends' for him to complain. Alex doesn't think he's in this house. It makes him feel bad.
Recalling the course of her life, Serena shed her tears. Serena just wanted to be happy. Maybe it was ego. He wants his happiness without caring about the people around him. He ignored Alex as a child.
Perhaps the misfortune that had happened to him the past few years was his life karma. And now God is punishing him with Alex's cold and indifferent attitude towards him.
“I know I'm guilty. I am heartless. But I beg God, let me feel the affection of my son, Alex. If that's hard to come true, let me see Alex happy.” Mumbled Serena before falling asleep after getting tired to cry.
The next day, Nara and Alex get out of the room as usual. They have to start working today. They haven't been in the office for too long.
The two joined hands as they descended and walked into the dining room. But someone who was usually waiting for them did not seem to be there. Without feeling anything strange, Alex immediately sat in his chair. Nara looked towards the kitchen. Looking for the whereabouts of her mother-in-law whom she did not meet this morning.
“Mak Marni, which mama?” nara asked after she did not see Serena anywhere.
“Mrs Serena is sick mistress. Body fever.” Mak Marni said doubtfully. He was afraid of ruining the peaceful morning atmosphere.
“Gosh. Let me see.” Nara was about to get up when her hand was scuffed by Alex.
“Eat your breakfast first. Siti please call a doctor. Let the doctor examine him.” Siti agreed and left immediately.
Nara looked at Alex sharply. “But dear...” said Nara a little whining.
“No buts. The doctor will be here soon. You have breakfast first. Just got to his room.” Alex said firmly. He immediately asked Nara to take him to eat as usual.
This morning, Nara ate very unenjoyed. His mind was not calm and was fixed on his mother-in-law.
“Darling today I didn't go to the office huh? I want to accompany mom at home.”
“Terlarah. The important thing is that you eat first the right.” Alex glanced at Nara. His mood has deteriorated.
“Good. Thank you dear.” Nara smiled happily. After that, he ate quietly.
The doctor came in half an hour later. Just as Alex was about to leave for the office. Nara welcomes Rubi's doctor and takes her to Serena's room after taking Alex away.
“Why did you call the doctor dear? Mama is okay.” Serena said when she saw Nara enter her room with a female doctor who seemed to be in her mid-thirties.
“Kata Mak Marni mama fever. So Alex calls the doctor to mama.” Serena was so happy to hear that. That means Alex still cares about it. It's been good enough even though Alex himself didn't come to see his condition.
Rubi's doctor started to check on Serena. Then after he finished checking the situation, he wrote down the recipe that must be redeemed.
“How is my mom doctor?” nara asked on the sidelines of doctor Rubi to write her prescription.
“In general Nothing serious. It's just that the condition of the endurance of Ms. Serena's body slightly worsened due to lack of rest and also the age factor. So please rest her more attention again.” Answer doctor Rubi. Nara looked at Serena with sadness. Serena must have been exhausted from last night's show. He feels guilty. Next time he won't let his mom work too hard.
“Good doctor. I'll notice that.” Doctor Rubi nodded.
“Good. I've prescribed some heat-lowering drugs and some vitamins. Make sure madam Serena takes her medicine regularly.” Rubi's doctor gave Nara a prescription paper. Before leaving the room and getting out of the room delivered by Mak Marni.
“Mama must be exhausted because yesterday right?” Nara sat on the edge of the bed. Gently brush Serena's arm.
“No darling. Mama's okay. The doctor just spoke nonsense.”
“Talking nonsense what ma? The doctor checked my mother. And she said mama's got less rest. So from now on mama no longer need to cook in the kitchen okay?” nara was serious. If he doesn't get in Serena's way, he'll feel guilty.
“Do not like that dear. Mama's okay. Really.” Serena panics. How would you take Alex's heart if he couldn't cook for her?
“Nara knows mama wants to cook Alex's favorite food. But my mom also paid attention to my health. I'm sure Alex wouldn't want to if Mama was sick. According to the doctor, yes?” persuade Nara gently. She knows Serena's weakness is Alex. As long as Alex was the reason, he was sure that his in-laws would agree to it without but.
“It's good. If you want to eat something, don't hesitate to tell Nara. Well even though Nara can't cook by herself. Nara can still work on her.”
“Em. You are a good daughter-in-law. Alex is lucky to have a beautiful and kind wife like you.”
“Well mama now eat porridge first. I've asked the waiter to redeem the medicine for mama.” Nara grabbed the bowl of porridge that was on the nightstand. Nara feeds Serena gently and helps her take medicine.
“Now mama rest first. Nara will come out so that mama can rest comfortably.” Nara helps Serena lie down and covers her.
When Nara came out of Serena's room, her phone rang. He immediately picked up the phone in his pants pocket. He was very happy when he saw the name written on the screen.
“Halo Syila's. How are you?” nara said as soon as she picked up her phone.
“...”
“Hei hey. I asked you carefully why are you angry unclear anyway?” Nara wonder. Suddenly, Shila was angry with him. He said he was not paying attention to his friends. He rarely contacts his friends. But that's because he's afraid of interrupting. They have a different life now.
“...”
“What?! Why didn't I hear the news at all?” pekik Nara was shocked.
“...”
“Yah. Actually two weeks I'm on vacation with Alex abroad. So I really don't know. I just got home yesterday afternoon.” Nara is guilty.
“...”
“Iya. Sorry-sorry. But I also did not expect all this to happen.” Something bad happened while he was on vacation. But this has nothing to do with him. It's not his fault either. But Nara still felt guilty.
“...”
“I'll be looking for her soon.”
“...”
“Iya. I'll go to his place. I hope he's okay. I'll help him as much as I can.”
“...”
“OK. I'll call you later. Bye.” Connection interrupted.
Nara massaged her temple. He was still worried about Serena. And now we have bad news from Syila. Makes his head slightly throb.
Vera's best friend is having trouble. Syila who was abroad even knew it first. While he who is in one country even one city does not know it. He feels like a bad friend now.
Nara sat down and refocused on her phone. He opened a news page as well as a gossip account. He was very surprised when he found the news spread there. Siddarta Griss, Papa Vera who is the mayor in the city of C is suspected of corruption. He was also secured in the KPK office. Not there, almost all of his assets were also confiscated. Leaving the house his family lived in.
Then where's Vera?
