Love In Silence (Love In Silence)
Chapters. 8
Maya waits restlessly outside the ICU room.
After a few hours of waiting outside, the doctor came out of the ICU room.
Maya immediately moved from her seat when she saw the doctor was out.
"Doctor, how's my mother doing?" ask Maya impatiently.
The doctor looked at Maya a moment ago and said to Maya "We've tried everything we can and it turns out that God wills another" the doctor said subtly.
"No!!!" yelled Maya who then hit the doctor and poured into the ICU room.
In the ICU room Maya saw all her mother's body covered with a blanket.
Maya's feet clenched, unable to move, her eyes stared at the bed.
The world seemed to be pitch-black in his view this time.
Round after round the clear circle began to fall on his right and left cheeks.
Maya was glued to where she stood.
His feet trembled to step closer to the bed where his mother lay with her whole body covered in the blanket.
Maya tries to walk closer to the bed.
Maya again stood transfixed after busting beside the bed.
Maya took a deep breath before opening the blanket that covered her mother's head.
Round after round the clear circle more and more rapidly falling on the white Maya cheeks.
Maya begins to unravel the blanket that covers her mother's head.
"Mother.....!!!" maya shouted loudly after seeing the face of the mother.
The woman who always smiles at him in a state of joy and sorrow.
the woman who always braced herself to face this cruel world.
"Mother...., why do you have to leave Maya herself..., Maya has no one else but mother.." Maya's cries broke and sliced the hearts of anyone who heard it.
Maya shakes her mother's body while crying and hugging her body.
Then after a while came the nurse approached Maya.
The nurse felt sorry to see Maya being devastated by her mother's death.
"Mbak..., mbak who is patient yes.maybe behind this all God gives another plan to mbak," said the nurse as she rubbed Maya's shoulder slowly.
Maya turned to the nurse and told her "I want to take care of my mother's body, right away" she said in tears.
"Well, I'll help you take care of the administration" said the good nurse.
Maya nods her head weakly and the nurse leaves Maya alone again.
Maya looks back at her mother's face and says "I'm sorry Maya mom....Maya has not been able to make her happy all this time, but Maya promises to be a good and diligent child to work as I always say every day to Maya."
"Maya darling.sama mother," Maya hugged her mother's body again while crying again.
Shortly thereafter the nurse came to see Maya with administrative papers to be paid.
"Sir, here's the bill" the nurse said, handing the paper to Maya.
Maya accepts the paper and starts reading it.
Ten million rupiah for the cost of care for approximately one month in the hospital.
Maya's heart seemed to stop beating she did not know what to pay the bill.
