My soul mate
CHAPTER 151

"What's wrong? How's the rame in front of the mortuary?"

I asked a cleaning staff member who was standing not far from the mortuary. The employee looked at me carefully. Maybe feel that just saw me circulating in this hospital.

"That's the doc, the patient's family".

His mouth still looks at me with a very thick banjar regional accent.

"Why is the patient's family so crowded?"

"The killing of the dock, still in pocket" (school)

"Oh yeah? Is this the victim or the killer?"

"Whose doctor, uh who's doctor? Ulun balum never seen" (Both \= both)

(ulun\=me)

I'm just smiling.

"That means I am needed now. Where do I go?"

"This pianist means forensic doctor?" (pian\=you to older/respected)

I nodded with a smile.

"Together between the docks, Ulun knew the rat's way"

"I don't fit dong if I have to go through the rat road"

"Good doctor, I mean that's a shortcut"

"Well, that's dong. I don't understand"

The father could hear the grin while using the regional language. We walked side by side towards the rat road called the father.

"I know sir. I'm also original here"

"Honest, is doctor pian urang here?"

(Mother's mother here?)

"Yes, my parents are real here. I'm from childhood to High School and I'm here"

"Logat pian kadak kayak urang here"

(How to talk is not like people here)

"I went to college, got married, and then worked living out of town. Maybe that's why the accent changed sir"

"Bum's load" (yes ma'am)

"Pian can speak another language only doctor"

(Mothers can speak other languages as well)

"God willing, if the native language is here, I understand sir"

"Outside language ulun tu ma'am"

(Other languages mean ma'am)

"Ooo no sir, outside the city I speak Indonesian"

"Pian straight through here ma'am. Kaina at the end of the turn to kiwa. I'm behind the forensic room. Pian said his glass. It's got pian lawang"

(Mother straight through here. Later at the end of the left turn. Get behind the forensic room. Mom knocked on the glass. Later on open the door)

"Are people passing through here, sir?"

"Sweep ma'am, it's like the incident happened in the morgue. This way I'm the nurse's doctor"

(Yes ma'am, if there's an incident like that in the morgue. This way the doctors and nurses)

"Thank you sir"

"Come on mom, you're welcome"

I also walked quickly. At the back door of the forensic room, I knocked on the glass door. The nurse there looked at me, then opened the glass door.

"Doctor Chintya?"

"Yes" I replied while nodding.

"Doctors know where this back road is?"

"An employee was cleaning up earlier that told him the way"

I went inside following the nurse's footsteps.

"Ahead still rame bu?"

"What's that about? Why do families like to want war"

"School boy killed his girlfriend Mom. His girlfriend also committed suicide. The two families met here and exchanged blame"

"Child of the times now. Still school has dared to do weird"

"Love is rejected, knife acts ma'am"

I just smiled as I walked into the room where the door had been opened by the nurse.

"Doctor Syarif is there?"

"There's a doctor"

"Thank you, yeah.."

"Sama-sama ma'am"

I also went in. Inside there were two more nurses who saw me coming straight up.

"Mother doctor, waiting inside"

I nodded while saying thank you. Then enter the room above which reads "Forensic Room". A special operating room for lifeless humans.

"For the doctor"

"Ega, come here"

Doctor Syarif called me Ega for following Doctor Ridwan who also called me Ega.

"Sorry late doc. Obstructed in front"

"That's it, family is too emotional"

This old doctor who is soon retired is very similar to Mr. JK. The former number two man in our country. Typical speech style of celebes.

"Is this both doctors?"

I pointed at the two pockets located above the gurney.

"This is the victim, this is the killer according to the police based on a letter found at the scene of the crime. But we don't think forensic doctors are necessarily like that. What happens and looks is not necessarily what it is"

"I understand the doctor"

"Which one did you choose? Who's the woman or the man?"

"Women are doctors"

"All right, let's hurry. We're after the cops"

I smiled and nodded. Immediately change my clothes and put on the full attribute before I touch the corpse.

I'm happy to be back in my routine at the hospital. There was another sense when I had changed my clothes and was in front of a frozen figure that I would have surgery and research.

----------

In another city inside a spacious yet quiet room. Mandala lay down trying to close her eyes. The loneliness she felt made her face never smile again. Keep looking at the photo of someone who is always under his pillow.

"Dear, I'm sorry"

Mandala stroked the face in the photo.

Mandala went into her study. Open the drawer, pull out another phone and start calling.

"Hello" the voice of the man who received a call from Mandala.

"Dad, Dala can't keep this up. Dala can't stand dad. Dala wants to see Ega"

"Dala, I haven't seen your mom in years. Dad could've. Why are you being such a crybaby?"

"Dad, Dala please. Finish all this. Dala could lose everything from Dala to Ega".

"Alright, I'll set things up a bit faster"

"Wait to hear from Dad"

Call disconnected. Mandala also type something on her phone. Read it back before sending it to someone.

"Dear, I missed you"

-----------------------

I finished my work today. Without food and lunch. Dr. Sharif has completed his work.

"Ega, make a report. I'll rest first"

"Good doctor"

I understand how old doctor Syarif's body must be porsed until night to solve a case.

I also made a forensic report.

For an hour I made a report.

I think it's enough to wake up the doctor Sharif is resting because the police have sent someone to retrieve the forensic results.

"What is the result of the doctor"

The policeman who came to see the doctor asked Syarif directly. I had previously glanced at and asked.

"New doctor?"

I just nodded.

"Old doctor, just moved on assignment here. Many cases in the capital have been in his help" doctor Syarif replied

"Because of duty in the doctor's capital?"

"Yes"

"So ask me what is the result of this?" doctor Sharif interrupted again.

"Eh, yes, doctor. So what's the result?"

The policeman chuckled, turning his eyes away from me to the doctor Sharif.

"They both drank poison. The time of death of the male is earlier than that of the female"

"What doctor? so the letter?"

"You should look for handwritten examples. It's handwriting that's male or that's female..The poison they both drank did not cause death. The man died by hanging himself. The female due to a stab in the chest that hit the heart. Is there CCTV around the scene?"

"Let me see a doctor"

"CCTV Check around TKP. There's probably a third person between the two of them"

The policeman nodded while taking notes on the little book he was carrying.

"One more thing. Ega say!" doctor Sharif asked me this time to explain.

"The woman is 8 weeks pregnant. It's been taken a sample of the fetus and the male victim. Waiting for the DNA results"

"How long did the results come out?"

The police looked back at me. And I looked at Doctor Sharif, because I didn't know how long the DNA results would last in this hospital.

"Two weeks. In two weeks you'll have to find the third trail"

"Okay doctor, I understand. I brought this report. Thank you"

The police were also pleased with us.

Finally my first assignment at this new hospital was completed. I cleaned up my things and intended to go home.

I cleaned myself up before I went home. Replacing my clothes and putting my surgical gown in the medical garbage can.

My stomach is hungry too. Fortunately, this morning I had eaten my mother's fried rice. If not, maybe I'll pass out.

As usual, I never activated my phone during my work. When it was all over, I reopened my phone.

And right now, when my phone is back on. A chat notification came in. From a number I don't know anymore.

Even though the distance separates me and you.

Although the distance buried my longing.

But I still believe.

You're always in my heart...

I let the chat read. I'm so tired. I want to hurry home and find a bed to straighten my waist.

------------

In my room. When I want to rest my body. I remember the chat from Mandala. I read it back. Maybe this time I should pay it back.

I also write words.

Sepi, wake me up at this moment.

Sepi.

I miss everyone, you..

But don't worry.

I'm trying to forget you.

My chat was sent and read immediately.

Apparently Mandala is always waiting for a reply from me. And Mandala returned.

Don't do something you can't do. Because I can't even do that if you do that.

I took a deep breath.

Mandalaaaaa.

Determine your attitude. Don't be like this to me.

I can go crazyaaaaaa.

----------------

In a spacious but quiet room, Mandala reads a reply to a chat from someone.

I think he wants to go see her. Hugged her and told her "don't forget me"

Mandala sends back a reply chat. Hope to get a reply back. But unfortunately, until in the morning, Mandala just continues to look at the face on the phone screen without any more incoming reply chat.

-----------

After reading the chat from Mandala. I decided not to return the favor again, trying to close my eyes. I finally really fell asleep, without realizing that someone was there waiting for my reply until the morning.
