The Mystery of Black Rabbit Lake
Chapter 9 - Talk

Budi was very upset, because he did not know the whereabouts of Hera after entering the restaurant. Budi decided to leave the restaurant to relieve his anger.

Then I called Adi.

"Hallo, In. Was it while I was on my way to the restaurant, Hera left the restaurant?" ask Budi

"No, the woman with black glasses and a hat is still in the restaurant" said Adi sure.

"Well, thank you, Di," said Budi.

Hm...

Budi looked to the right and left of the restaurant, looking for cctv that might be around the restaurant and saw there is a minimarket that is open 24 hours to the right of the restaurant. Maybe this minimarket has another cctv point that is different from the Adi cctv.

Budi immediately to the minimarket for permission to see all the minimarket cctv recording points starting at 8 am until now. But Budi did not see Hera coming out of the restaurant at all. Means Hera's still in the restaurant.

He scratched his head which was not itchy. He checked the restaurant and did not find Hera there. Where is Hera? Did he walk out the exit behind the restaurant?

Go back to the restaurant and check it out. But he did not manage to find it. He sighed in annoyance. Hera is lost without a trace.

Look at the watch that is wrapped around his finger. The day has shown at 13:00 noon, Ares Anthony will soon arrive at the airport in the city of S. And Budi predicts Ares will soon go to the nursery of his Father and Sister, instead of going home or to his office at the Hades Hotel. So Budi closed the search for Hera today and now switched to chasing Ares Anthony.

The Flash Back Off.

The doctor who handled Athena's treatment at the hospital gave good news. Athena was allowed to go home today. Ms. Mia, Sister Secretary is now taking care of her administrative payment, while Bi Marni is accompanying Athena in her room.

Suddenly the door was knocked and a nurse came in carrying a basket full of beautiful pink roses with –little white flowers and a large white box. It looks very contrasting.

“Good day, Miss Athena. I just received this gift from a courier. It's great to see so many people who love, love you and hope you get well soon and move back to normal activities.”, said the nurse with a big smile.

Bi Marni immediately received the flower basket and the big box, then gave it to Nonanya who was sitting in a wheelchair. Athena placed the flower basket on her lap, pulled a strand of pink roses from the basket and kissed it.

Very fragrant, Athena who likes pink roses is very touched by the attention given by the sender of the flower basket. Athena smiled slightly. Then take the card tucked between the pink roses and read the card

“Capable recovery, Athena. I hope you like all the gifts I've sent you. If you need my help, don't hesitate to call me. Doctor Roy Solar 081-zzz-zzz.”

Athena smiled back as she read Doctor Roy's handwriting on the card. This doctor always surprised him with his attention that exceeded that of a doctor to a patient.

Athena turned to her bed and saw several more flower baskets neatly arranged beside her bed. Everything is a flower with pink with a card with sweet words that are romantic but full of inspiration, arousing the spirit to accelerate his recovery. With initial sender RS. Initially Athena suspected that the sender was the management of the hospital, but the wreath that had just come had written the full name of the sender along with the phone number.

Ah... Doctor Roy is funny and very romantic.

How does Doctor Roy know my favorite colors and cakes? Is Doctor Roy good at guessing the hearts of women? Judging by some nurses always appear flirtatious and dare to disturb the good Doctor.

I don't know. For sure I have to say a lot of thanks to the Doctor during the next consultation, Inner Athena.

“Nona, do you now know the sender of this flower basket and cake?’, asked the curious nurse.

Athena nodded.

“Romantis once, Miss.. Make me envious...well, excuse me, Miss. And I hope we don't see each other again, miss. Always healthy and cheerful, Miss," said the nurse as she stepped out of the room.

Athena smiled at the nurse.

I hope we never meet again. I don't want to be hospitalized anymore, precisely, inner Athena.

The door was knocked back and Papa entered the room with Ms. Mia, who had finished taking care of the payment administration.

“Athena, you can go home now. Rest in the apartment well. If there is anything, you can contact Papa or Miss Mia. Sorry Papa can not accompany you home because Papa must accompany Mama at the Hospital," said Papa.

Athena nodded.

Athena then pressed the forward motion button on her wheelchair to get close to Papa. Papa gave Athena a warm hug.

“Athena went home first, Pa," said Athena softly and suddenly Athena could hear her very soft voice. Papa immediately took off Athena's embrace and looked at Athena as if he could not believe her hearing.

“Papa, Athena can speak again" said Athena louder than ever. Papa's eyes widened happily and hugged him again.

“Praise God, thank God, Son. You can talk again. Papa was very happy to hear your voice," said Papa's gratitude as he rubbed Athena's head.

“Nona... thankfully Miss can already talk," said Bi Marni who had been moved.

Ms. Mia clapped her small hands, smiled happily and reached out to Athena to congratulate Athena.

“Really? Can I really talk again? Thank you, Lord," said Athena gratefully.

“Mama would love to hear the news that you can talk again, Athena," said Papa terlukaru. Athena immediately remembered her mother who had not been conscious since the surgery. Mama's condition is no longer critical, only still in the ICU room to always remain in the supervision of the doctor team until Mama regained consciousness.

“Papa, can Athena visit Mama in the ICU room now?" asked Athena eagerly to talk to her Mama. Because all this time Athena was unable to talk while at Mama's bedside, in the ICU room.

“Of course, Athens. Papa will ask the doctor's permission to let you visit Mama before returning to the apartment. Let's get to the ICU right now" Papa said.

Athena nodded and pressed the forward motion button on her wheelchair again. Papa, Bi Marni and Bu Mia follow Athena into the two-room ICU room to the right of Athena's room. A medium-sized room with sliding doors and small glass parallel to the eye view so that visitors can see the patient's condition in the ICU room.

Papa knocks on the door and a young doctor standing guard in the VVIP ICU room opens it. He wore a blue uniform wrapped in self-protective gear, a mask and headgear. Papa asks Athena for permission to enter the ICU before returning home. The young doctor allowed Athena to wear protective clothing, a mask and headgear before entering the ICU. After wearing it Athena went into the ICU room and was near Mama.

“Mama, this is Athens. Athena can now speak, Ma. Probably because of all the love given and prayers offered to Athena. It has helped Athens a lot to be stronger and more courageous. Now it's your turn to be strong and brave like Athena. Open your eyes and get well, ma. Athena and Papa loved Mama very much. Now Athena wants to go back to the apartment with Bi Marni. Papa will always look after Mama here. Tomorrow Athena will come back to the hospital to see Mama. Athena hopes that Mama will wake up and embrace Athena in the morning" said Athena softly and gently. Her tears were in the corner of her eyes. Then Athena kissed Mama's cheek.
