SERUNI
CHAPTER 6 The Spirit of Nana
Pak Camat and Bu Camat who had previously left the house wanted to welcome Seruni and Shaka immediately turned their attention to the figure of the citizens who came with faces full of panic.
"Whose house is burning?" ask Mr. Camat.
"The house is Mr. Said, sir. His wife and child were burned, "the resident replied with a gasp of breath.
"I went there first, Ser," said Shaka sparingly.
Camat sir and Shaka immediately walked with the residents to Mr. Said's house. It seemed like the flames were not too big yet, as the surrounding sky did not burn reddishly, only gray smoke billowed.
Seruni took her doctor's kit bag inside the suitcase. Half ran after them. Leaving the suitcase just like that in the courtyard of Mr. Camat's house.
Arriving at the scene, Seruni immediately opened the crowd of mothers who surrounded two people who were lying some distance away from the house that was busy being extinguished. Houses made of wooden planks make the fire spread quickly.
"Excuse me ... Excuse me ...." A half-calling thousand broke through the crowd of mothers.
Just one look, Seruni was able to deduce that the mother's burn was heavier than the child's. The mother had a little trouble breathing. Seruni looked around.
"Mom please kind of back away so that his mother can breathe a sigh of relief," said Seruni while standing up to take two light brick blocks that were piled up in front of one of the houses. Seruni lifted the mother's leg, then placed the block under her.
"Do you have a clean towel?" tanya Seruni half shouted for her voice to be heard, her voice was almost covered with the voices of citizens who worked together to extinguish the fire.
A woman the same age as Seruni, went straight into the house closest to the two victims.
"Still get me brother" said one of the residents.
Actually the residents are also confused and wondering about the presence of Seruni figure in their midst. But emergency conditions made them put aside the curiosity.
Seruni turned his attention to the child. "So can still walk, right? let brother help let the wound heal quickly," asked Seruni. The boy nodded awkwardly.
"Show your brother, where there is running water," said Seruni, helping to reach the child.
Not far, just five meters back. The boy showed a water faucet, but unfortunately the water was still used to drain the fire. Seruni raised his head. The fire was extinguished. They are cooling so as not to create a raging fire again.
After making sure the faucet close to him is not the main source, Seruni removed the connecting hose, then set the faucet to make it flow smaller. Then he told the boy to bring his feet under the water. Seruni stood up with her knees. "Hold brother's shoulder, this won't hurt. Your injuries will recover quickly" he said patiently.
The foot of the child who was hit by the burn was drained with water right on the wound. Occasionally the child's legs tiptoed in shock, because of the pain felt.
"Have ... now go back next to your mother. Don't fall asleep, sit on your back. Brother will treat your wounds immediately. Slow down the road." A man made the boy walk.
Seruni received a towel from a woman of her age earlier. "Thank you, brother" he said. Then he wet the towel with tap water and then squeeze it not too dry.
"Mother, this will not hurt.this is to compress while making the mother's wound clean. Hopefully at the puskesmas here there is a cold bandage. Because my own seems to be enough for a mother's child." Carefully but still nimble hand Seruni wrapped a towel on the thigh of the burning Mother.
After completion, Seruni who had not had time to wear medical gloves, immediately washed his hands in a house with liquid soap in his backpack. The curiosity of the mothers seems to radiate. Looking at the items Seruni was wearing, they could clearly guess, that Seruni was from the city.
"Owh yes, introduce my name Seruni. I'm the doctor who will be on duty at the puskesmas here. May the mothers accept me. Do not hesitate and do not hesitate to ask if there are complaints about health," said Seruni gently, politely and kindly.
The curiosity of the mothers answered already, alternated with their respective judgments and thoughts about the first impression they saw Seruni.
"Oh .. turns out to be the doctor" whispered one resident.
"Beautiful!" add another citizen.
"No less than datuk siti nurhaliza," said other mothers. JRN country artists are more familiar to them, because the tv channel they can watch clearly is actually the channel from the next door neighbor.
"Shanum .. You haven't been able to lure Sayaka in yet, There has come a beautiful woman like this" said a mother to the towel-giver.
The cooling is over. Seruni saw Shaka walking side by side with Pak Camat, followed behind him there were several TNI members assigned to guard the border. No wonder the fire was quickly extinguished, apparently members of the TNI quickly helped. Seruni also said goodbye to mothers to return to the house of Mr. Camat.
"Bang Shaka" call Seruni.
Shaka and several people including the camat sir turned their heads towards Seruni's voice. It's like finding a water source in the middle of a desert. Seeing Seruni after struggling to extinguish the blazing fire. All suddenly cold.
"It turns out you didn't go home first" Shaka asked half in shock.
"Not bang, all acquaintances with mothers here," replied Seruni.
"Fathers, at eight we will gather at my house yes, we will get acquainted with the beautiful doctor's mother. While the name is so because I don't know the name either." Camat gave an announcement to the people.
Seruni threw her sweet smile. Shaka glanced at the few soldiers that were behind him, just as he had expected. Mouth slightly gaping, there is a jakunnya up and down and there are those who pretend not to see but the tail of the eye glances perfectly.
Arriving at the camat sir's house, Seruni had to wait for a bath. Because the bathroom is still used by Pak Camat's children. It is commonplace that in one house there is only one bathroom.
While waiting, Seruni chatted for a moment with the camat sir, camat ma'am and Shaka. Of course, Shaka is familiar with pak camat, because several times Shaka met pak camat during a visit.
"Don't call mr. Camat, ma'am, just call Mr. Sajad, call mom Camatnya also bu Sajad only," pinta pak camat politely.
"That's it sir, fine! But the same father mother called me Seruni only. Let me look young sir" said Seruni.
Miss Camat or Bu Sajad saw that the bathroom was empty. "Seruni please take a shower first, the suitcase I put in the temporary room belongs to Seruni, Seruni official house is still repaired maybe two days more finished. His room from his northern bathroom was a little. Room number two," said Sajad.
Seruni nodded in understanding. Then with enthusiasm go straight to the room that Sajad meant. Without thinking of the north east west where, Seruni directly opened the door of the room.
"Awwwwwwww!" Seruni reflexively shouted while closing her eyes with her palm.
