The Man Full of Wounds
Chapter 42

The flight to Surabaya took an hour and a half, Alanna booked a taxi through a taxi ticket machine located in a corner of the airport not far from the main exit. After paying her at the counter, Alanna walks out picking the nearest taxi and gets into the taxi before boarding first showing proof of payment to the taxi driver.

The taxi stopped right in front of the house, Alanna went straight in because the door was unlocked.

"Mother....! Alanna's home." Alanna called her mother. There was no reply, Alanna walked towards her Mother's room.

Alanna went into the room and found her mother sleeping.

"Mom, Mommy."Alanna sat by the bed and built her mother while holding her hand.

Hearing Alanna's voice made Mother open her eyes, waking up. "You're home yet ?" She said smiling weakly.

"Yes, Alanna's home." Alanna rubbed her dear Mom's arm. "Mom should eat, I make porridge huh ?"

"Yes." Yeah." Answer Mother. Alanna immediately got up out of the room walking towards the kitchen.

Waiting for the ripe porridge Alanna took the time to text Mama Rani, telling her that she had reached home. When the porridge is ripe, immediately Alanna serve it in a bowl and take it to Mom's room.

"Mom eat first, let a little important there is stomach contents rather than nothing at all." Persuade Alanna while sitting in front of Mom.

Mom got up slowly to sit down to help Alanna. "Let me eat alone." Mother said when Alanna was about to feed her.

Alanna moved the bowl of porridge to Mom's lap. "Tomorrow morning we go to Puskesmas huh ? for treatment." Alanna asked for Mom's approval and was nodding her head back by Mom.

"Mother is no more." Mom said a moment later thrust the bowl that was still half-remaining to Alanna.

Alanna took it, gave Mom a glass of water. Mother drank a few sips and gave back the glass to Alanna.

"Mother rest, I have to clean up the kitchen, call me if there's anything you need."

In the kitchen, Alanna was washing dishes when she heard her phone ring a call sign coming in. Seeing the name of Rani's mother that appears on the mobile phone screen.

"Hallo ma's." Alanna said when the call was connected.

"Hallo Alanna, how's Mom doing ?" ask Mama Rani from across the street.

"It's still like when I called her this afternoon. Tomorrow I'll take it to Doctor Puskesmas."

"O. I see, it's good that you want to take your mother to the doctor. Mama called Zack but she picked up Johan's phone because Zack was in a meeting, so she told Johan to add your cut and told him to tell Zack you were in Surabaya."

"Thank you ma."

"Yes, it was a long time ago then. Rest, tell mama to keep."

"Yes my mom." Mama Rani disconnects the phone.

Alanna finished her work in the kitchen, locked the door and turned off the lights. Pulling his suitcase into the room he had just kept in the living room. When she went into her room nothing changed, Alanna unpacked the suitcase and put her clothes in the wardrobe. When to Jakarta Alanna did not bring all her clothes that is why she only brought a few pieces of clothes when she came home.

Finished tidying up her clothes, Alanna lay down to rest intending to sleep, not long lay drowsiness coming to make her sleep.

"After the examination, your mother's blood pressure turned out to be very high and the cholesterol level in her blood also passed the normal limit." Doctor Puskesmas explained.

This morning they went to Puskesmas to check on Mom's health.

"How much is my mother's blood pressure and cholesterol levels Doctor ?" Alanna asked worriedly hearing the doctor's words.

"His blood pressure is 200|90 mmHg and his cholesterol level is 235 mg|dl, he said, so my advice is your mother should be treated immediately in the hospital to keep the brain from bleeding that can cause a stroke due to very high blood pressure." Doctor explained.

"It's up to which doctor I'm best to follow." Alanna said she turned to her mother who was sitting next to her who also heard the doctor's words. "Mom needs to be cared for." Alanna squeezed the hand of her mother who had been in her hand to convince her.

"Yes, son, I want to." Mom squeezed Alanna's hand back.

"Then I'll make you a referral for your mother." The doctor said when he heard their answer.

"Yes Doc, thank you."

After going through all sorts of procedures, Alanna and her mother arrived at the Regional General Hospital. From their ER in the hospital room, Alanna requested first-class hospitalization for her mother.

When it was twelve o'clock in the afternoon, Alanna's stomach was hungry.

"What do you want me to buy ?" alanna asked, getting her bag ready to go out. "I want to go eat first, I'm hungry."

"Mom is full." Answer me because I had eaten food that was delivered to his room. "You go eat."

Alanna chose to eat at a restaurant close to the hospital. Waiting for the food order to arrive, Alanna called Rani's mom. The phone connection is connected when the phone rings to two.

"Hallo mama."

"Hallo son, how's your mother doing ?"

"Mother in the Hospital, Doctor Puskesmas suggested and we agreed to her."

"What is your mother sick ?" mama Rani asked curiously.

"Hypertension ma, his blood pressure is so high that the risk of stroke can occur." Alanna explained.

"But it's good to be handled before it happens."

"Yes ma."

"What are you doing now ?"

"Before it's outside, again for lunch."

"Zack called you ?"

"Yet ma." Alanna said trying didn't sound disappointed.

"Maybe she's busy, mama hope you'll take her." Mama's words are entertaining.

"Yes, Alanna understands."

"What hospital is your mother in ? I'll send Zack his address, if he's not busy he can read it right away."

"Later Alanna sent me the address."

"All right, mama wait. You'll eat later mama's phone again."

"Yes my mom." The phone connection was also cut off.

Not long after Alanna's food order came, Alanna also ate her lunch. In the middle of her lunch Alanna suddenly remembered her best friend Ayu and Gita, Alanna also tried to text Gita first.

|| Gita, how are you ? not related for a long time. ||

Not long after the sms ringing sound came in.

|| Alanna...., long time ago we did not send each other the news, I'm good news how are you ? must be busy with your new job.||

Alanna smiled reading Gita sms, as usual she was always excited by all circumstances.

|| My news is good, it is busy with my new job in Jakarta, sorry just this time can contact you. ||

|| It's OK, I understand.||

|| I am now in Surabaya. ||

|| Is it ?!! let's meet up. ||

|| Looks like it will be hard, because I have to take care of Mom.||

|| Your mother why ?||

|| Mother's blood pressure rises and must be treated at the Hospital, Mother in Hospital General Area. ||

|| Okay, I will be there with Ayu later after the schedule sif at the hotel. ||

|| Okay, let me know if you want to come. ||

It did not feel that Alanna's lunch had run out because she was busy texting each other with Gita. Standing up then walked to the cashier to pay for his meal using his credit card and immediately went out to return to the Hospital to accompany his mother.
