Slander Fruits of Karma
Disillusioned

The Part 95

A week passed, Mrs Ratih's health deteriorated and had to be rushed to the hospital.

Irwan went to all the Novia brothers and asked them to come to the hospital, The children of Bu Ratih had gathered with their mother.

They were sitting in the IGD waiting room, Novia couldn't sit quietly she was walking around spinning in an uncertain direction.

"Sit down Vi, sister dizzy to see you," said Randi Novia's oldest brother

"I'm afraid sis," Novia replied with an anxious face

"You make your sister more tense, you better sit down and pray."

The brothers looked agitated, because it had been almost two hours Mrs Ratih in undergoing examination.

When the doctor came out, the four of them scrambled over each other.

With a hunting breath Novia asked, "Dok, how's our mother doing?"

"He dropped, his blood sugar is less than 100 profit just quickly brought here," said the doctor

"the cause?" chirps Riska

"Patients who have a history of diabetes, will usually experience this condition because of reduced food intake."

"Indeed all wrong ma'am, if you eat excess blood sugar can rise otherwise too. So it takes substitute foods such as fruits and vegetables," said the doctor at length

Riska nodded her head in understanding, almost nagging Novia for thinking Novia was not good at taking care of her mother.

"All right, I'm sorry. In an hour we'll move the mother to the treatment room" the doctor said

"Thank you for the explanation Doc" Riska replied

With Novia's weak move back to her seat, guilt in her heart that always forbade her mother to ask for food that her mother liked.

"What's wrong with you Vi?" irwan asked as Novia sat beside him.

"Am I wrong? During this time always forbid mama ask for her favorite food, instead only serve porridge and a little side dish to mama."

Novia bowed lethargicly, her sister Riska's remark the other day made her more carefully feed her mother.

"Here you go, Vi, it's not your fault. You've done the best you can to your advantage that's enough for mama."

Irwan encouraged his wife, according to him Novia has taken care of her mother with all her heart even her children and her husband himself is often neglected as long as his mother can be taken care of properly.

Novia turned to her husband, sometimes there was a sense of compassion tucked into her heart when she saw her husband had to take care of his three children while she was preoccupied with caring for her mother.

"I'm sorry Wan, often neglects my duties as a wife" Novia said

"I don't mind Vi, even I'm glad that you take care of mama when else you have a chance like this" Irwan replied.

As the doctor said, an hour later Mrs Ratih walked out of the room using a gurney pushed by a nurse and stopped in front of them.

"Mrs. Ratih will be escorted to the room," said one of the nurses.

"Yes, we will go there" said Novia then moved from her place.

They and their families went hand in hand, following the nurse who pushed the gurney towards the care room of Mrs Ratih.

Arriving in the room, Randi helps the nurse move her mother to the hospital bed and the nurse out pushes back the gurney that took Ms. Ratih.

"Title the carpet Vi, so that children can freely rest," said Riska while putting her carry-on bag

After the carpet was held, the grandchildren of Bu Ratih scrambled for a place to rest, of course, accompanied by their giggling sounds.

"Ssttt, don't be noisy later this is disturbed," said Novia almost whispered and put a finger on her lips.

Novia smiled amusedly, the child's pattern of behavior and her bangs slightly comforted her from the tension.

Riska walked up to Novia and said, "Vi, sorry you can't keep you here looking after your mom, you know that you can't sleep at night in a place like this."

Novia just nodded her head, As her prediction must be her brother would rather go home than stay overnight in the hospital. Though their condition is the same Novia also has three children who still need attention from him.

"I've been expecting her brother, you will indeed not be able to accompany and take care of mama to the maximum" Novia murmured in her heart

"You don't mind deck?" ask Riska again

"No," said a short Novia

Shortly after, the three Novia brothers say goodbye leaving Novia, Irwan, and their three children in the care room of Bu Ratih.

"Wan, you guys haven't eaten yet, please buy some food outside." Novia asked her husband to buy food for the four of them.

Novia took a piece of paper money from her purse, then handed it to her husband.

Tonight Novia and her little family gathered in one room, like this is what happens every time Mrs Ratih is treated. Novia is willing to leave her job to accompany and take care of her mother.

While the other brothers, only occasionally come to visit.

A week of intensive treatment in the hospital, finally Bu Ratih's health recovered and Novia asked for permission to go home to the doctor.

After taking care of all the administration, Novia packed up their goods and clothes to take home.

Not yet they came out of the room, Riska came and talked to her mother but Novia did not hear what they were talking about.

Riska approached Novia who was standing by the door, prompting her to sit down to talk about something important.

"Vi, mama just go home to my sister," said Riska

Novia squinted her astonished eyes at once in shock, without any previous talk suddenly her brother said like that.

"What's wrong, brother? Why did mom come home to my sister instead of coming with us?"

"Sister's house is a short distance from here, so mama can be easier to carry for chek up."

Novia's feeling so bad, maybe she is considered unable to take care of her mother. Novia did not want to show her disappointment and just chose silence.

"As for mom, if you feel more comfortable in my sister's house, it doesn't matter" replied Novia

Another case with Irwan, seemed to dislike and do not accept the unilateral decision of his brother-in-law.

Irwan felt his brother-in-law underestimated his wife, even though he knew very well how the struggle Novia had been taking care of her Mother-in-law.

Not wanting to linger, they also came out of the hospital. Irwan drove his Mother-in-law to Riska's house even though in his heart puffed up but for the sake of keeping Novia's feelings he still wanted to carry her mertunya into the house.

After all the goods were taken down, Irwan took his wife home with annoyance.

"Come, Vi, we're home. The children are sleepy" Irwan said in a flat tone.

"You guys don't rest here?" tawar Riska's.

"No brother, we will be here again tomorrow or the day after tomorrow" replied Novia.

Novia said goodbye to her mother, after which took her three children up in the car.

Irwan drove his car on the road to the house, along the way he expressed annoyance and nagging.

"Vi, I'm honestly offended by your sister's belittling attitude and think you can't be anything."

"When all this time you are taking care of your mother, now even as arbitrary as that," said Irwan annoyed

Novia was silent, not responding to her husband's nagging for avoiding debate. Her heart and body were too tired she wanted to rest even though she was actually much more disappointed by her brother's attitude.
