The Broken Ring's
A Slap

With a somewhat hasty move, Riani stepped down the corridor of the hospital. Previously, he had asked the hospital receptionist and got information regarding the room where Larisa was currently being treated. The chest of the middle-aged woman seemed to rise and fall holding back all the emotions that mingled into one. The look on his face was also tense, indicating that he was not doing well at the moment.

A few minutes later, Riani's steps finally stopped in front of an inpatient room where Larisa was treated. A sigh came out of his mouth without being prevented, before he reached out to push the door of the room.

Riani entered with a feeling that could not be described with words. Simultaneously, Larisa who was lying down turned her head because she was aware of someone's coming. He was alone there with no one to look after. Really, Riani's heart immediately felt like it was being squeezed. The anger and disappointment he had felt since last night instantly turned into an immeasurable sadness.

"Mrs ...." Larisa whispered in a barely audible voice, but it sounded so clear in Riani's ears.

Riani did not respond to Larisa's call, but her feet slowly stepped towards her helplessly lying daughter. Larisa herself looks resigned. When viewed from the expression of the mother, it is certain that the middle-aged woman already knows about her condition and what causes it. Borok who had been trying to cover up, finally now found out too.

"Where's Erick?" That was the question that first came out of Riani's mouth after successfully mastering her. Given that Erick was the one who contacted him and told him about Larisa's condition, he thought he would find the man was looking after his daughter at this time. The man is also the cause of the disease that Larisa is suffering from now, so it should be responsible even if only limited to taking care of Larisa in the hospital. Apparently not. I don't know where Erick is right now.

Larisa who was asked could only be silent. Previously, he had been unconscious and had just awakened without anyone by his side. When his eyes closed, only a glimpse of the sound of a doctor and a nurse talking to each other. It seems that it was during her examination. Then where did Erick who previously seemed to be very worried about his condition? I don't know.

"I ... don't know ...." Larisa's plan replied. There was a tinge of despair from his soft voice.

Riani sat on a chair beside Larisa's gurney, facing her weakly lying daughter. With teary eyes, she looked at Larisa, making Larisa feel even more guilty and turned her head slowly in the other direction. It can no longer be described the destruction of Riani's feelings at this time, until it feels like he can no longer say anything.

"I'm sorry, Ma ...." Larisa said weakly with somewhat faltering. As much as possible she refrained from crying in front of her mother.

Riani was silent, not knowing what to answer. Can she forgive Larisa who has ruined her own life like this? I don't know, because on the other hand Riani is also not capable of herself.

For a moment Riani closed her eyes, so her tears fell without being held back. However, he soon wiped both of his wet cheeks. He also sighed for a moment while trying to control himself, only then opened his eyes again.

"There's so much you want to say to me, Risa. But now is not the right time. You should see a doctor who handles you first. He said you have to have surgery immediately and the doctor needs your wali's approval" Riani said, breaking the silence. The woman got up from her seat.

Larisa looked back at the mother with a helpless expression. It seemed like he wanted to say something, but did not have the courage to make a sound.

"Don't tell me you don't want surgery, if that's what you have in mind right now. Follow the words of Mama if you still think that Mama is your mother," said Riani while turning her body and leaving Larisa.

Larisa's tears flowed without being asked. It hurt to see the disappointment clearly visible on his mother's face when talking to him earlier. There were no soft words like the ones he used to hear. There were only sentences with cold and so piercing tones.

Meanwhile, Riani was also sobbing softly while holding her chest behind the entrance of Larisa's treatment room. Her heart was so sore at how pitiful Larisa was right now. Which mother will stand to watch her daughter suffer. No matter how much wrong a child makes, no mother can bear to see the suffering of her child.

After successfully calming himself, Riani went to see the doctor who handled Larisa. Apparently, his arrival has been highly awaited by the doctor considering how serious Larisa's condition is now. Larisa's gravely infected uterus must be removed immediately because if it is delayed again then the life of the bet.

"If the Madam has already agreed to the actions we will take, then after this we will immediately prepare for the operation for Miss Larisa. The sooner the better, ma'am. Fear later the condition of Miss Larisa increasingly drop, even can not be done surgery," said the doctor after explaining Larisa's condition thoroughly.

"All right, then. We'll have surgery on Miss Larisa as soon as possible" the doctor said.

Riani nodded, before finally retiring. He immediately walked out of the doctor's room and intended to return to the room where Larisa was treated.

"Mama." A voice made Riani's steps come to a halt just as she had been in front of Larisa's room.

Riani turned her head and found Erick standing not far from where he was currently standing. Instantly he gasped and his chest rumbled erratically looking at the man.

"Why didn't Mom tell me when I arrived. I can pick up Mama at the airport" Erick said, approaching Riani.

Somehow, Riani's blood boiled over hearing the sentence spoken by Erick just now. He who is usually so patient is now so easily ignited emotions just by looking at Erick's face.

"Did Mama have breakfast before she left? If not, let me buy you some food for ...."

Plaque!

Erick had not yet finished his words, a slap so hard that it suddenly landed on his cheek, making the man startled instead of a bitch.

Erick raised his face still with a surprised expression. Even more surprised when he saw the face of Riani who was usually very soft, now was looking at him with wrath.

"That's for the wound you gave Lalita," said Riani sharply.

Plakkkp! A harder slap landed on Erick's other cheek.

"And this is for the suffering Larisa is feeling right now because of your irritation!" riani growled again with a voice that somewhat shook with anger.

Connect ....

Hi, how's everything going? Sorry to update again.

Thank God, now I can write a little more. My condition is also much better than before. Although the feeling still persists, but I am not as afraid as that time.

God willing, Lalita will continue, but I can not promise whether it can be updated every day or not. Ask for his prayers anyway.

All healthy, yes, yes, yes
