The Lives of Five Hundred Thousand

The Lives of Five Hundred Thousand
As a result of having a legitimate wife


After parking my motorbike, I rushed into the hospital in a hurry to quickly arrive at the pulmonary chamber and gave the food I brought to Sumi because the clock had shown half ten. I'm sure Sumi must be starving in there.


"Nuri.." In the middle of the walk someone called me from behind.


I stopped my steps and turned around and it was your baby doctor who called me. He was seen walking with wide strides, probably to get to me quickly.


"Nuri.."what a handsome doctor it was with breath sounded a little stingy.


"Doctor Bayu!"I say hello back.


"You want to go to Mariam's mom's room?"


"Right doc."


"Then I'll check on Mariam's mom, too."


"Let's dok." Then we walked along to the pulmonary chamber.


As we walked down the hospital corridor, my eyes looked at the familiar figure of a middle-aged man walking towards the hospital room. I tried to remember who the middle-aged man was and a moment later I remembered him. The distended man was none other than his father-in-law bang Supri. But what he's doing in the hospital and who's sick.


"Nuri.." In the midst of my curiosity for the bloated man, doctor Bayu called out to me.


"Yes doc."


"What are you looking at?"


"Oh, I was looking at the person I knew there," pointed me at the room whose door was closed.


"Oh, I guess see what."


I smile.


"What was your son Nuri yesterday?"ask her between steps.


"Right doc, my son and only two years old" I replied without hesitation.


Doctor Bayu stopped his steps and tilted his body to look at me, I looked back at him.


"Why doc?"ask me in wonder.


"So..are you married?"ask and look doubtful.


"I'm a single parent doc."


"You mean you.."


"I'm a married woman and divorced."I clarify.


Doctor Bayu was silent as to what he was thinking about me but soon he said, "oh, sorry Ri." Doctor Bayu himself had not known about my status because he had never asked me before and I had never told him.


"Ehm,Dok.."


"Why Nuri?"


"What...doctor was the sister of Nura's lover Raihan?"I ventured to ask out of curiosity. Because, before the doctor Bayu once said that his sister had died after birth.


"You know Nura?"Bayu asked back.


"Not really knowing him only once met."


"Where do you know I'm Nura's sister?"


"Dearly."


"Oh, right, Nura is my sister from papa's second wife, said oma papa remarried after just one month of mother's death. Strangely not, when a new wife and child died he remarried. I myself was not close to them including papa because since I died I was taken care of by Oma, the mother of my mother. And knew Raihan only once met Nura's birthday."


"Has Raihan and Nura ever been a school or a college?"


"I don't know Nuri, but I don't think so, because as soon as I was far above Raihan, maybe around five or six years old."


I frowned, why is Raihan looking for a girlfriend who is the same age as me and her name is almost the same as mine? Did Raihan really want to forget me so he was looking for the same boyfriend as me.


"Where does the doctor know?"


"From their biodata, I accidentally saw the biodata. Raihan is a young entrepreneur whose company is newly established and after my papa I grow forty percent shares in his company.


Again I scrunched my forehead after doctor Bayu told me. I was wondering if it was because Nura's parents owned forty percent of her company until Raihan accepted Nura to be her lover even though she was not in love. I swallowed my saliva that felt stuck in my throat.


"Why are you asking about Raihan and Nura, Nuri?"


Your baby doctor's question breaks a little of my daydream."Sorry doc, I have to give this food immediately pity my friend must be he's already starving," I averted his question.


"Ah yes already, let's continue."


I'm nodding. Then we continued our steps towards the pulmonary chamber.


Just opened the door Sumi had welcomed to our arrival with a smile.


"Sir.."Sumi hugged me right away.


"Sum, I'm sorry I came over the bad luck there was a little business," I said, after taking off his embrace while thrusting a paper bag at him.


"It's okay Nuri, thank you you for bringing this food to me when you yourself must be busy at home."Then Sumi took the paper bag.


"It's okay Sum, as long as I can."


"emm, I want to check on Mariam's mother first huh Nuri?"doctor's permission Bayu.


"Yes, please."


After Bayu's doctor entered the curtain, Sumi whispered, "why do you look familiar with doctor Bayu Nur?"


"Just feel you Sum."I denied it even though I actually felt so close to him.


"If I pay attention to his attitude and behavior, it seems that doctor Bayu likes you."


"Don't talk carelessly Sum, if it sounds that person can be ashamed of me Sum."


"Jiahh, you also like the doctor, but it's okay Nuri, I support. The Bayu doctor is handsome and if he notices you like there is a resemblance. And you know not if the old man said first if his face there was a resemblance that sign is a fool."


I nudged Sumi's arm with my elbow so she stopped talking, what more did the person she was talking about come out from behind the curtain.


Sumi was silent, and I was the same. Doctor Bayu looked at us and gave a sweet smile. I returned his smile too.


"Have you finished Doc?" my many.


"Have, do you want to go out the same?"Doctor Bayu asked back.


"Oh, no doc, I'll see Ms. Mariam first. Doctor please go ahead."


"Then I say come out first" he said later.


"Yes, please."Then the doctor Bayu out of the lung room.


Shortly after, I also paid a farewell to Sumi after seeing the condition of Mariam's mother first.


In between stepping my eyes were fixed on one of the nursing rooms entered by Mr. Umar-in-law bang Supri. But when I was watching the door, someone greeted me.


"What is Mba Nuri doing here?"


I narrowed my eyes to see a thin man and red-crested hair standing before me."You're Jono's sister mba Yati right?"


"Yes mba."


"What are you doing here?


"Jagain mba Yati mba?"


"Why?"


"Mba Yati is sick mba."


"What pain?"


"Anu.it was a Yati accident."


"Accident, when?"


"four days ago mba."


Four days ago, I remembered four days ago that I caught him in a hotel while e na e na with an old battery. Then the man's wife beat up Yati and I didn't know how she was because at that time I left her after taking evidence of her affair. and right now I'm sure he's sick not by accident but by the old woman.


"Keep in what is your father waiting for him too?"


"Mr just got home, now it's my turn to take care of it."


"Oh, can I see Yati's mom?" ask me, I wonder how bad it hurts.


"By mba, hayu." Then I followed behind Jono into the ward.


Jono pulled out the curtain that stretched."Here come in," said Jono.


"Who are you, Jono?"mba Yati asked in a soft voice.


"I'm the same mba.."before Jono continued his words I first showed my face in front of Mba Yati.


"How are you doing Yati !"


Mba Yati looks surprised to see my arrival. Then he immediately shifted his severely swollen face until I could not recognize that the woman was Mba Yati.


"Why did you bring this ja la ng woman here Sujonooooo.." cried out Yati. He looks very angry at his sister.


"But this is Nuri's sister-in-law mba herself," said Jono.


"But I don't want him coming here, quickly get him out of here, Jono."


I turned to a slanted smile to hear what else he said, Ja la ng. I wanted to speak well with him but seeing his attitude like that I thought this woman was not worthy of good.


"Sedang conditions like this alone had time to shout and say the people of Ja la ng. Though the pain is also a result of his own woes. That's a shame,"my insinuation.


"Go away.."


"There is no need to be kicked out as well I will go mba, I just want to make sure how the condition of brother-in-law after being beaten by the legal wife of an old man who was sleeping."


"What does mba mean?jono asked, apparently he did not know what had happened to his brother.


"Be quiet, go away!"yati yelled at me, her chest up and down seemed furious.


I smiled at him."You just ask your brother what really happened to him Jono, you know Jon, your brother like this because of his own actions that have dared to play games behind my brother. My brother is very sick."


I turned my eyes to the angry woman and her face I didn't recognize." Don't like playing with fire if you don't want to burn. Do not play with the husband of people if you do not want to be beaten with his wife. Your card is in my hands you know mba, I have proof of your affair stay I tell bang Supri to quickly divorce the wife who often bergonta change rod. Yes smoga alone mba not affected by venereal disease. Excuse me..!"after saying I rushed away.


"Your son of a bitch Nuri, watch out for you Nuri," she yelled and tried to get off the bed the patient wanted to chase after me but Jono held her back.


I closed the door and from the outside the screams were still heard. I walked away not caring.
