Dani has been moved to the ward after the surgery is completed and of course runs smoothly. A man was sitting there waiting for him with an anxious look on his face, as he was unconscious after 1.5 hours of lying still, with a needle and a drip tube stuck in his left hand. That man was none other than Nathan. As for Evan, he just came out to buy something to just fill his stomach, which has not been filled anything since. Dani's hand, which Nathan held, slowly began to move slowly, but surely.
“Rani.?” Nathan's words have not been fully responded to by Dani. Nathan gasped at Dani's moving finger. Slowly, Dani tries to gather her energy to open her eyes and can talk to Nathan.
“Na...” said Dani after he perfectly opened his eyes, and saw Nathan's face smiling in front of him. With both hands still holding Dani's right hand.
“Ssssttt.., don't talk much first, you just rest. Seeing you are aware, I am already quite happy and very relieved.”
“Nathan, I'm thirsty.”
“Sorry Rani, but you must be able to pass the wind first, you can eat or drink, be patient first yach.?”
Dani nodded at Nathan's words. The girl smiled faintly at Nathan.
“Nathan, thank you for bringing me here.” Dani said slowly. Slowly Nathan stroked Dani's hair gently. Waving the strands that covered the girl's forehead.
“Iya, equally. You should make a slant aja Ran, to the left may be, or to the right may also be, so you can quickly dispose of the wind. I'm watching over you who are thirsty.”
“But I'm ashamed if I throw the wind there is you. You can go out first, please, Nathan.?” Dani said slowly.
“Hmm, well my Rani, I'm out first. You don't papa I live alone?”
Dani nodded. Not to forget the sweet smile adorning his lips. And Nathan did what he wanted the girl who had become his idol. Nathan walked out of Dani's room. With his initiative, he went to the hospital canteen. While waiting for Dani to pass the wind, he wanted to find him drinking water and something that could be done.
After Nathan's death, Dani tried to tilt his body to the left, because the abdomen that was operated on was the right. Carefully, he managed to tilt to the left, albeit slightly withholding pain. Five minutes, ten minutes he waited for the belly wind that had not yet come out.
Tok tok tok tok
The sound of the door being knocked, shocked Dani. He turned to the door, and saw Daniel had entered and stood right in front of the door of his ward.
“Ma...mas Daniel.?” dani said slowly. Daniel stepped slowly toward his wife who was lying on her side.
“How are you doing, Dani?” said Daniel who was standing next to Dani, and intended to sit next to him.
“Dani please, mas out of Dani's room.” said Dani like holding something back.
“Why? Is that how you hate me? I really want to apologize to you Dani, I'm guilty telaahhhh.”
“Please mas Daniel, Dani please mas out.” said Dani who looks can not stand holding something. Now the sweat wet Dani's forehead.
“Why the hell? You don't want to seehaa..” Daniel did not continue his words. His nose was like smelling something, and it was a special scent that he was very familiar with.
“You fart? Dani....ka..kamuu..” said Daniel who covered his nostrils with his right palm.
“Ma...sorry mas, Dani can not nahan, was already Dani tolduin to mas to get out, because Dani want to waste the wind, now mas out.” Dani's face looks so embarrassed.
“No papa really, even if you want to fart as much as you want, mas will not be angry with you, it is natural that abis operation should be able to fart first.”.
“Why shy?” Daniel's approaching. Slowly allow the seat and sit next to Dani. He sighed. Between doubt and uncertainty, he stared at Dani's sweaty face. Slowly Daniel took his handkerchief, and gently rubbed Dani's sweat.
“Ma...Daniel...”
“You don't be afraid. You will not be evil anymore. Mas just want to do good even if it is just wiping your sweat, and there is no price in your eyes, but it is very sincere mas do the same you.”
This is Daniel why? Ah, I can't think bad first, have positive thinking.
Dani was silent, as Daniel dried his sweat. Now Dani's mind is filled with a million questions and full of puzzles. After he finished drying Dani's sweat, Daniel smiled, looking at the sweet face of his wife, Dani. Before he said to Dani, he took a deep breath and exhaled slowly.
“Dani, I'm really sorry, from the bottom of my heart, I'm sorry that all this time it has hurt you, made you suffer birth and inner. Now I'm conscious, and I can feel the pain you've been feeling. Mas will release you, because mas tau, your happiness is not in mas.”
Dani couldn't believe what Daniel just said. He thought Daniel was missing. Dani's still in a daze. He looked up and saw Daniel.
“What did Daniel say? I'm not lying, right?”
By reflex, Daniel's hand rubbed Dani's head. Dani can feel his sincerity.
“No Dani. Mas earnestly. If letting go of you makes you happy, I'm willing. As long as you are happy with the man your heart chooses. And mas will be happy when you are happy.”
Unable to hear Daniel again, Dani sobbed. Tears rolled down her cheeks. For some reason, he was helpless when Daniel said those words. His heart feels tight. Slowly but deeply. The man who had always been rude and fierce, now turned like a tiger that was ferociously missing.
“Why crying? You should be happy, Dani. You won't suffer anymore, and after papa recovers, I'll talk to papa anyway, you don't worry yach.?” said Daniel who now wiped the tears Dani wet his cheek.
Dani doesn't know anymore. Should he be happy or sad. But in fact, Daniel has said what he had long wanted to hear from the man's lips.
“Dani, mas happy, although actually in the heart mas a little unwilling. But for the sake of your happiness, you will do it. Forgive also the attitude and actions of Carnations to you, who at that time dared to slap you in front of the mas. You know, my heart hurts and more stupidly, I didn't do anything for you, I'm really sorry, Dani.” Dani's heart grew more and more anxious to hear Daniel's words. It's getting more and more joking. Unaware of both, Evan has been standing in front of Dani's bedroom door. He saw and saw everything.
Brother Daniel, Evan is proud of his brother. Brother has been a great man in Evan's eyes, thank you brother Daniel.
Evan's not in. He deliberately held back his steps, and looked from the outside through the glass that was part of the door. And, without Evan noticing, Nathan was also standing behind him. Out of curiosity, when he returned from the cafeteria, he also witnessed what made Evan stand glued like that.
“Dani forgive Daniel and Carnation.” replied Dani in between sobs.
“Dsni, can I request one request.?”
“Aa...what is mas.?”
“May I hug you for a moment.?”
Daniel's question made Dani's heart rumble. Now Daniel's request for permission makes Dani even more moved. Dani nodded. Slowly, Daniel raised the bed and now Dani sat leaning on the bed. Gently, Daniel hugged Dani.
Is this my smile holding you Dani? I'm sorry I wasted you. But it's all too late. I'll be happy if I see you happy.
