"Come, Sarrah, we'd better get your finger checked out to the doctor. I'm afraid it's gonna get worse" Marcello asked.
Marcello helped Sarrah get up from her seat and then took the woman to walk with him.
After Marcello and Sarrah left the place, Marissa returned to her room limping. His feet still ached and ached when used for walking. Slowly, Marissa climbed up the patient bed and sat down on the edge.
"Well! I'm in big trouble if Daddy finds out that I've traded Sarrah's ring for a fake one. I might get punished again!" marissa Mumbled.
Meanwhile, Marcello and Sarrah are already in the doctor's room to check Sarrah's problematic fingers.
"Sorry, I'll see you first, Miss."
The doctor grabbed Sarrah's hand and then checked the condition of the woman's finger.
Marcello grabbed Sarrah's shoulder then gently stroked it. At that time Sarrah's face looked very pale. He was afraid that something would happen to his finger.
"Marcels. I'm afraid, I don't want anything to happen to my finger. Especially until amputated and cause permanent disability," Sarrah said with an anxious face.
Marcello stared fixedly at the frightened pretty face beside her. "Just calm down, Sarrah. You'll be fine and don't talk weird. Not good," said Marcello
"I'm really scared, I don't want to lose my finger, Marcello! What will my friends say? They will definitely sneer at me then stay away from me just because I'm disabled! Oh, my God .. I don't want to!" sahut Sarrah's.
"No way, Sarrah! Besides, your finger won't be amputated just because of this. And if that happens, it means your friends are not sincerely friends with you. A true friend will not abandon you, let alone for such a small reason!" marcello.
Sarrah lowered her head, what the man said was true. He realized that all this time his friends were willing to be friends with him just because he was the lover of Marcello, a successful businessman who was famous throughout the country.
"Did my words offend you, Sarrah?" marcello asked after seeing his fiancee bowed in lethargy.
Sarrah quickly raised her head while shaking. "No, Honey. I'm not at all offended by your words, but what you say is true" he said.
After a while, the doctor finished checking Sarrah's ring finger.
"Look, Miss. Your finger is already experiencing a severe infection and also swelling. If it continues to be left then it can spread to other parts of your finger," said the Doctor.
"What's this really because of, Doc? No way, isn't this because of my engagement ring? My engagement ring is expensive, Doc!" ask Sarrah to panic.
"No way! All the jewelry I buy is always from the same jewelry store. And all of them are original, even all of them have certificates. Isn't that right, honey?!" sarrah said upset after hearing the speech from the Doctor.
"Then how's it better, Doc?" marcello.
"Take off the ring, and we'll treat the finger. Except, Miss Sarrah does want the state of her finger to worsen" said the Doctor.
The doctor was upset that the woman did not believe him at all.
"No! I can't believe it! This is our engagement ring, dear Marcel! Didn't we both buy it and choose it, there's no way my fingers could be scratched because of this ring. I don't believe in the words of this doctor. Lest he purposely say that to get me to take off my expensive ring, right? You're actually envious, aren't you?!" hardik Sarrah with a flushed face.
"But, Sarrah! What the doctor said was true. Do you want your finger to get worse? Take off the ring and we can buy it again if you want" Marcello said.
Sarrah got up from her sitting position, "Ah! Nevermind, Honey! we better just go! We better find another Doctor, who is more expert of course," said Sarrah as she stepped out of the Doctor's room.
Marcello was really ashamed of the ridiculous behavior of Sarrah who so glorified his expensive jewelry. Even the woman prefers to keep the ring rather than her own health.
"I'm sorry, Doctor. He was a bit stubborn" Marcello told the doctor.
"It's okay, sir. I understand" said the Doctor.
After exiting the Doctor's room, Marcello rushed after Sarrah who had stepped first in front of him.
"Your sarrah is truly a shame! You shouldn't have behaved like that to the Doctor," upset Marcello while aligning his steps with Sarrah.
"I'm pissed off, baby! Indirectly, the Doctor thinks our engagement ring is a cheap ring and I can't take it!" saith.
"Then, do you want to let your finger stay that way?!" ask Marcello.
"I'm sure he'll heal himself soon enough!" sahut Sarrah while grunting annoyed.
