Pursuing the Love of Rhea
38. Finally Conscious

In a quiet room, Gavin ventured to Papa Ardana who was currently lying helplessly with various medical devices attached to his body. Gavin did not expect at all, papa Ardana who has always looked very healthy, apparently suffering from a dangerous disease.

With a sad look, Gavin slowly approached Papa Ardana's bed and clasped the old man's hand tightly.

" Pa, it's Gavin..." Gavin lirih. Gavin could not hide the look of sadness on his face at this moment.

" Papa must heal, so that I can forgive papa! Don't stay in Gavin's own Pa! It's just Papa that Gavin has. If Papa is healthy, we go to mama's grave with ya pa! Mama must've seen we could be better."

Gavin tightened his grip on Papa Ardana. Until unknowingly, Gavin's tears had flowed down his cheeks.

" Papa must be strong! Gavin apologizes Pa!" Gavin lowered his head, regretting all the actions he had done to the Papa in the past.

While Gavin was still in his grief, a small movement from the hand of papa Ardana made Gavin immediately raise his head. Gavin could also see his eyes gnawing slowly, as if he was gathering his consciousness.

" Wins..." Papa Ardana's hoarse voice was unable to stem the happy feeling that Gavin had right now.

" Is Dad conscious?" Gavin looked at his papa wistfully as he tightened the grip of both of their hands.

" I'll call the doctor first Pa!" Gavin immediately pressed the button on the hospital bed to call the nurses and doctors on duty.

While waiting for the medics to arrive, Gavin continued to apologize to Papa Ardana sincerely. Papa Ardana who is still in a weak state, just shook his head rejecting what was said by the child alone puppet. If Papa Ardana had the strength to speak more, maybe he should have apologized to her son.

When doctors and nurses arrived to check on Ardana's health, Gavin was asked to leave the room. As Gavin waits outside, Alex faithfully accompanies his best friend.

" I'm happy, Ardana finally realized Vin!" Alex smiled happily while tightly embracing Gavin's shoulder.

" Thanks!" Gavin said briefly while nodding his head. Gavin also felt the same happiness as Alex.

While they were still waiting outside, Alex did not forget to contact Edwin mas along with Azka and Dhafi, to tell the condition of om Ardana who had been aware.

After almost 15 minutes of waiting, the doctor finally came out of the room to convey the current state of Papa Ardana's health.

" What's my Papa doing, Doc?" Gavin asked seriously while looking at the doctor who was the same age as his father.

" Mr. Ardana has already made it through his critical period at this time. So he can be moved to the hospital room to continue the recovery process." The doctor said politely while smilingly looking at Gavin.

" Thank you so much Doctor!" Gavin was finally able to smile happily while shaking the Doctor's hand tightly. Gavin also did not forget to thank God for giving healing to his current Papa.

When the doctor left, Gavin immediately entered the room to look back on his papa. In the room there are still some nurses who are preparing to move Papa Ardana to the VIP Inpatient room in the hospital.

" Thank you Pa, you've survived for me!" The tears rolled back over Gavin's cheeks as he clasped his papa's hand tightly.

" Papa also thanks you for apologizing Papa, Vin!" Said Papa Ardana in a still weak voice. They both dissolve in feelings of happiness because they can improve the relationship between the two.

When some nurses were about to move Papa Ardana to the Inpatient room, Gavin and Alex immediately followed them all from behind.

" Azka actually wants to buy what? The feeling from earlier we were just princes is not clear in this mall."

Azka and Ara are in the mall. The two of them just went around the mall without buying anything. Ara who was getting tired, finally began to protest at Azka.

" I forgot what to buy. That's why I'm talking to Lo puter-puter, so I can sip what I want to buy." Azka lied to Ara. Actually Azka just wanted to linger with the girl.

" So Azka didn't want to buy what? Geez, brother, I'm tired of knowing the way from there." Ara said irritatedly while turning her lips to Azka.

" Hon sorry! Would I buy Boba?" Tanya Azka lowered her eyebrows while making an offer to the girl.

" Hmm..can deh! Yuk hunt, we buy the Boba first, just walk again!" Ara again pulled Azka's hand to immediately find the place of her favorite drink seller.

While the two are busy touring the mall, Azka gets a phone call from someone.

" Bentar Ra!" Azka held back the movement of Ara who was walking with her.

" What brother? Who's the nelfon? The girl Lo? Mampus Lo, caught again the same way me!" Ara laughed mockingly at Azka who was busy picking up a phone from someone. Azka put her index finger on her lips to stop talking.

📞📞📞

Azka: " Hello!!"

Alex: "Hello, Ka!" Om Ardana is conscious! Get to the hospital now!"

Azka: "Okay, I'm going there now!"

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

Finally the short call was over. Azka glanced at Ara who seemed to throw a questioning gaze at her.

" I have to pull it off now! There's important business. You can go home by yourself, right?" Azka said seriously while looking at Ara back. Actually Azka could not bear to let the girl go home alone. But Azka is more concerned about her best friend for now, so she puts aside her business with Ara first.

" Not fun, brother! I'm in living alone. Girl Do you know, Lo walk with me? Don't go out with other girls if you have a boyfriend!" Ara said at length while throwing a scornful look at Azka. But at the same time Ara also felt a little disappointed because Azka preferred to leave her alone in the mall.

Tukkp....

" Don't just talk! I want to go to the hospital. Gavin's bokap's in there again!" Azka explained.

Instantly Ara's forehead, immediately wrinkled to hear Azka's explanation. Ara had never heard from Rhea that Gavin's Papa had been admitted to the hospital.

" Azka seriously bokap his brother Gavin in the hospital? Since when? How come Rhea never told me about it?" Ara asked curiously while looking at Azka waiting for an answer.

Azka who was asked like that by Ara, was immediately nervous to answer. He forgot that Ara was Rhea's best friend. So whatever happened to Rhea she must know. Gavin did not intentionally tell Rhea that her Papa was in the hospital. Gavin is afraid that Rhea will be worried and will mess with the girl's concentration while attending her first basketball practice yesterday.

" Azka's sister, how come she? Azka's sister lied to me again?" Ara squinted her eyes suspecting Azka.

" I'm not really lying. Gavin's mom is in the hospital. Gavin deliberately did not tell Rhea, so as not to make Rhea worry." Azka said honestly. He can't help Gavin keep this a secret anymore, because he's already lost talking to Ara.

" Is Gavin the same as Rhea? He should have told me what really happened. If Gini Rhea misunderstood him. Rhea thought that Gavin's brother cheated on her, because he rarely called Rhea again." Ara said stirring because she was upset with Gavin's actions.

" Let's go! That's their business, you don't have to interfere!" Azka cuek.

" Can't do it, brother! I have to tell Rhea now! If they break up because of misunderstanding how?" Ara immediately picked up her phone which was in her mini Sling bag to contact Rhea.

" Ehh..no! If Rhea nanya, you know where Gavin's bokap went to the hospital how? You want to give me what reason? Don't bring my name! My head can be cut off by Gavin." Azka shuddered in horror at the anger she was about to receive from Gavin.

" Kak Azka is calm. Let me do it!" Said Ara confidently. Ara immediately contacted Rhea right then and there.

📞📞📞

Ara: "Hello!"

Rhea: "Hello too Ra! Tumben Lo nelfon, how can I help you?"

Ara: "Rhee.gue there is important news. Don't be surprised about it!"

Rhea: "What the hell is Ra? I'm curious about it."

Ara: "Gavin's sister's bokap is in the hospital!"

Rhea: "........"

Scene: "Rhee...You're still there, right? It's okay, right?"

Rhea: "yes...Ra! I'm all right! Do you know where Gavin's brother went to the hospital?"

Ara: "Hmm..gue out of my brother who is sick. I happen to see Gavin here too. I was curious so I asked the nurse. They say that Gavin's brother's bokap is being treated again."

Rhea: "why didn't Gavin tell me Ra was the same? I'm not important, until he doesn't want to tell me about the state of his bokap?"

Ara: "You can't think of Rhee!! Gavin's sister definitely doesn't want to worry you. Don't think negatively about her. If Lo is not important to him, it is impossible for him to defend to pick up Lo yesterday night at the cafe!".

Rhea: " Is that Ra?? Yes, I want to go there now. Bokap his brother Gavin in the hospital where Ra?"

Ara: "In the hospital....Central Medica Rhee!!" (Seeing Azka asked what the name of the hospital where Papa Gavin was treated)

Rhea: "Okay, I'll get ready first. Thanks for the info."

Ara: "Yes Rhee, same. Bye Rhee.!!"'s..!!"

Rhea: "Bye Ra..!!"

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

When the phone call was turned off, Azka gave Ara a round of applause as a form of appreciation for the girl.

" Why did Azka's sister use all the applause?" Ara asked a little astonished by the behavior of the guy beside her.

" Lo turned out to be good at it too huh lie?" Azka said bluntly to Ara.

" Lying for good is okay! Pity you know, see my friend is upset! I was just surprised by Gavin. Why don't you tell me the truth, Ama Rhea. Though in a relationship it must be honest and open to each other's partners. Let there be no conflict ahead." Speak Ara wisely.

" I think that's experienced!" Ejek Azka this time.

" No experience needed, just know it all. Playboy like Azka's sister who understands that." Ara said casually while throwing a mocking look at Azka.

" Lo many bacots! Yes, mendingan I'm looking for a taxi now. Then I went to the hospital to take Gavin. Don't tell Rhea, if you know this is all of me!" Threaten Azka to the girl.

" If that is not what I promise!! Weeekkk..haha!!" Ara laughed happily as she managed to make Azka's face turn wrathful. Ara immediately ran as Azka started to approach her. He did not want to be made to eat sharks because of Azka's annoyance.

The two of them finally left the mall, while running around because Ara did not want to be captured by Azka. When Ara saw the taxi stop, she immediately boarded it and left Azka just like that. Ara did not forget to wave at the guy while throwing a smile. Azka who saw Ara's behavior, could only shake her head in disbelief. Ara is the first girl to make Azka have to run in the mall, to chase after the girl.

" Consider Lo yes!! I'm gonna make Lo my girlfriend, any way." Azka Monologue on yourself.

After Ara disappears with her taxi, Azka also rushes to the parking lot to leave the mall and head to the hospital.
