The (Former) Mafia
Chapter 6. Operation For Ezra

The night of the operation for Ezra was completely carried out. Waiting for the light above the operating door to go out. It had been a few hours since the boy entered the operating room, but there were still no signs if the operation had been completed. The nurses went back and forth to pick up something that Nabila himself did not know what it was. He just kept moving his fingers and lips, dhikr, asking for smoothness as well as healing for his fruition.

"Are you reciting a spell?" ask someone suddenly. Nabila almost jumped because of shock. The woman smiled cynically, she pulled herself away from the crazy male figure that allowed the ghoib thing from her.

"I'll believe what you believe. So, we can get married." Bara said while doing hand movements, like what Nabila did, like being counting books on his fingers when he was not.

Nabila turned his head back, he who was initially not interested now looked at Bara with a confused look, even now, his sitting position had changed. He looked at the man from the most comfortable position. "What did Mr Bara say?" tanya Nabila was curious.

"I said I'd believe what you believe. So we can get married. You have a God no, I will trust your God! ... Bolots." The last word was deliberately disguised so that the woman in front of him was not offended.

Nabila exhaled a long breath. He stared at Bara increasingly intensely. "Listen to me, Mr. Bara! Religion is not sold. You can't just believe what I believe just because you want to marry me. The problem is in the sin!" point Nabila at his left chest. "I know you don't believe anything. But, if you suddenly want to believe in a God that I believe in, it's just a lie. You are making a fool of yourself. I can't accept that!"

No answer came out of the mouth. He was silent, not intending to ask for an explanation. Nabila's lips that continue to move make his intelligent brain suddenly damaged.

Just wanting to speak, suddenly the door of the operating room opened. Nabila immediately moved to see the condition of his son, but, again he had to accept the fact that his wrist was being held by Bara.

"How can I trust your Lord?"

Nabila took his hand out of the man's hand. He smiled, and a word came from his lips. "Love!" replied Nabila then passed following the doctors who wanted to move his son to the observation room.

Bara just stared at Nabila's back with a wrinkled forehead. He was confused about what else to do. Of love? Mean what? Does he have to love the woman's God first? How-to?

....

The next day, Ezra had already moved into a regular outpatient room. His tiny eyes slowly blinked. When the pair of eyes opened, the first thing he saw was a room dominated by white.

"Darling!" call Nabila with teary eyes. Nabila was really very happy because Ezra had regained consciousness. The boy turned his head, he looked into Nabila's eyes with a sad look. "Mama .. Don't cry!" he said with a very weak voice. Nabila shook her head. She kissed her son's face and head many times.

"Mama's not crying, honey. Mama's just happy, now Ezra won't be in pain anymore. Ezra's gonna heal, baby!"

Right after saying that, several doctors, nurses and Bara and their assistants entered Ezra's ward. The doctor examined Ezra's condition, while Bara only noticed Nabila from afar.

"Basar crybaby! A little cry, a little cry. You were supposed to be friends with my Eileria, so don't shove!"

"Sorry, Boss. Erat, Mrs Eil belongs to Mr Nathan!"

Bara snorted, he looked at Durant with a sharp look. As for Durant, the man lowered his head while taking a few steps back to get a little away from his boss.

"Thank God .. his condition is gradually improving. I'll come here often to check on her condition" the doctor said.

"Investigate that son of a bitch, Durant!" tell Bara without turning her gaze from Nabila's face. This woman can smile when she sees a doctor, but always sniffles at her. What a great humiliation.

....

"Eat a lot, honey!" nabila said to his favorite child. He paid absolutely no heed to Bara who was watching them without knowing what they had been talking about since.

"Mrs ... Ezla wants to be fed, Papa," said Ezra who still can't pronounce the letter R well.

"Papa?" ask Nabila confused. Ezra nodded back. He noticed a handsome male figure who was looking at him expressionlessly. As if understanding with the gurgle shown by Ezra, Nabila turned her head towards the person. He grimaced, Nabila finished. He always said that the father of his son was a handsome man, tall, and a bit of a crack. Why it fits so well with the characteristics of this crazy man.

"Darling!" call Nabila on Ezra. "Ezra must have been mistaken, he wasn't Papa. She's just Mama's assistant. Mama's getting a job now, Om it's just the errand boy, Mama!" nabila's lie. Ezra does not understand what he is saying.

Ezra nodded. He smiled then moved his hand asking Bara to come closer.

"I?" tanya pointed to herself. He immediately moved after getting a nod from the little boy in front of him.

"What wrong?" ask Bara to Nabila. The woman was speechless. He only offered the man a bowl of porridge and signaled that Bara would feed his son.

"Akh, you want me a bribe?" ask Bara with body movements because currently they can not communicate due to language constraints.

"Now eat, that's a lot!" Back Bara voiced while demonstrating his limbs.

Nabila laughed at the silly behavior of the man beside her. Where is Bara who is cruel and cruel, why does she even look so adorable when she is with Ezra. "He understands English, sir!" whispered Nabila made Bara hang was mapping his body sculpting. He hastily scoops the porridge in the bowl and stuffs Ezra with it.

"You are very funny" muttered Nabila involuntarily.

"What?" ask Bara. He could certainly hear what Nabila was saying, but he did not know what this woman was talking about.

"Akh no, let me take the bribe, Ezra!" nabila said he wanted to snatch the bowl in Bara's hand. However, detained by his only child.

"No, Ezla wants to be fed, Papa!"

Smiling triumphantly. He raised his eyebrows as if saying 'i don't know anything' but with a mocking look.

"Basic Samsudin!" ketus Nabila was upset to feel played by the two men in front of him.
