Marriage of Debt Relay
*Bab 40

In the end, Dinda succumbed to circumstances that left her with no other choice. Although his heart still hurt from what he had witnessed with his eyes, but Ilya's deteriorating condition beyond logic made his heart not strong enough to survive in anger.

Dinda and Mbok Yah also returned to the city next afternoon. Without preparing anything, Dinda who followed the panic immediately left her tantic house.

After traveling for several hours in a state of silence with each other's minds. Finally, they arrived at the hospital as dusk changed.

Their arrival was greeted by the Mamat mang in front of the hospital lobby. With big strides, they headed towards the second floor of the place where Ilya was currently being treated together.

Arriving in front of the room in the corner of the room, Dinda's steps immediately stopped when she heard a groan of pain coming from the room. And from the small words contained on the door of the room, Dinda could see Ilya was struggling with the pain in her body with all her might.

Ilya who moaned while tightly grasping the edge of the bed that he was in place made Dinda's tears fall instantly. Guilt immediately appeared in Dinda's heart now. As it turned out, Ilya was suffering so much just because of his selfishness. If only he hadn't been so selfish as not to leave Ilya, or maybe he could have listened to Ilya's explanation for an instant. Maybe Ilya's situation won't be this bad.

That's what Dinda thinks right now. Until, his legs and hands shook and felt frozen due to guilt as well as pity for Ilya's current state. Ilya who was sweating coldly looked like she was in a lot of pain. Makes Dinda not want to come in now.

"Sister Ilya." Dinda spoke softly while covering her mouth with her own hands. Tears keep falling. Therefore, he was still unable to make it inside.

Mang Mamat also directly touched the shoulder of the wife of the employer he cared for since childhood like his own son with full sympathy. He also spoke slowly. "Non, comein! Mang believes that if non enters, den Ilya will be stronger to fight the pain he suffered."

He was upset because his heart was very sad about Ilya's current state. Ilya who fought hard to conquer the pain that was eating away at her body. The man who had made him hurt a moment ago, was suffering a lot now. Where can Dinda keep the heartache for the man again.

Meanwhile, Mang Mamat who got a question like that just glanced at his wife who now remained silent without any intention of coming along. Next, with a sad face he turned his gaze towards Dinda who was now in front of him.

"Not allowed, non Dinda. But there's no way to help. Since entering the hospital in the morning before noon, Den Ilya had received twice a sedative. While painkillers anyway, already three or four times he got. But it seemed, the pain was very immune to the medicines his body was receiving. The drugs only lasted a few minutes. After that, the dose will disappear and return to the pain as it is today."

"Ap- what? Is Ilya suffering so much now? It's all .. 'cause I." Dinda said as she felt guilty for being very sad and very guilty.

"Don't blame yourself, non. What happened cannot be changed again. But, what happened we can make a lesson so that in the future nothing bad happens again." Mbok Yah also said in a soft voice.

"What the mbok said is true, Non. Now, don't cry and don't blame yourself too much. Instead, non Dinda went inside. Meet den Ilya and give him some encouragement so he can fight his pain. Because right now, he's broken in hope, Non." Mang Mamat also increasingly add to the advice that his wife said.

Dinda did not answer with any more words. This time, he immediately listened to what the husband and wife had to say. He went inside to see Ilya even though his heart still felt very awkward.

Dinda went into the room alone. Yah and Mang Mamat are just waiting outside. The presence of Dinda Ilya no longer ignored now. Because the pain he suffered made him forget the world around him.
