The Substitute Heart of the Doctor
The Part 25

...****************...

Arif and Tio are examining the refugees for routine checks. There are some refugees who complain of illness and some who complain about refugee camps. When the patient began to decrease, finally Arif began to be able to lean his back into the chair that contained the leaning place.

"Hi Doctor Tio, is it true that nurse Cici is your wife?" arif asked suddenly which made Tio who had recorded a prescription for his patient look at him sharply, "God relax, I won't take your wife too time"

Hearing that Tio took back the medicine and turned to face Arif, "Why suddenly ask like that?"

"Just ask, how did you meet?" ask back Arif who confirmed his sitting position.

Tio looked at the ceiling of the tent as if he was thinking, "We were partners at that time, he suddenly asked me to be his lover at that time to avoid arranged marriages. But instead of being truly in love with each other" Tio told while laughing as she recalled the incident.

Arif also chuckled amusedly at the story, "Then do your parents know the real story?"

"Yes, you're crazy!" This time only Arif laughed out loud because of Tio's words, "Your relationship with Doctor Aly?"

Arif stopped laughing and looked at Tio casually, "We're just college friends who happen to be one hospital as well"

"You don't want to date her or propose to her?"

Arif shook his head, "I just don't want to hurt him" he said as he stared at the ceiling of the tent, "Just one time I saw him suffer" he muttered, which Tio could hear.

"Then protect her smile, don't fade it. Although life is also at stake" Tio's advice is answered with a bitter smile from Arif.

"You're right"

"Ariff" David suddenly appears while carrying his clipboard, "Aly calls us to make a morning briefing"

"Alright, I'll excuse Doctor Tio" said Arif who rose from his stool.

"Sure, next time let's talk again"

"certain"

Arif and David walk side by side until they enter the cafeteria tent of the Doctors.

"Over" chirped Iza who got sharp glances from the two men.

Aly shook her head slowly, "Alright, good morning to noon everyone"

"Bagi"

"Good briefing this time, I as the chairman of Doctor Jateng feel happy and calm because it turns out the missing victims have been found" heard that the entire room became noisy, "Relax everything. Actually I want us to go home together but due to limited availability of aircraft, so our return is shared. So, I have to record who's coming back"

The tent was back because of the happy news. A Doctor from the Semarang area raised his hand, "May you know what date our return will be?"

Aly raised both eyebrows and smiled shyly, "Good question, I forget to explain that. Our return is.." Aly saw a piece of paper, "26 equals 30" he said with a shy smile.

Everyone there just laughed at Aly's mistake.

"So I as General Chairman of Jateng Doctor feel happy because I can be with friends, sorry if during my time here I made a mistake or a hurtful word I apologize"

A Doctor from Solo raised his hand and stood up, "We Doctor Solo are very grateful that you are our Chairman. And after the discussion we chose the last date for our return because I and some of my friends still have patients"

Aly nodded in understanding, "Doctor Banyumas also chose the last date, meaning the rest could tell Alfi for his record. After this…"

Brak!

Cici who entered the tent in a hurry accidentally hit a chair, "Sorry everyone but Doctor Aly's patient named Lisa Crystali suddenly had a seizure!"

"Alfi were there any strange signs during the examination earlier?" aly asked who was running among the crowd outside the tent.

"There's no problem, but indeed said his mother Lisa had sneezed last night" said Alfi while looking at the clipboard.

When he was about to arrive at the Tent Patient Aly stopped for a moment, "Get seizure medication!" aly's words were directly done by Alfi, "How are things?" aly asked hurriedly while examining Lisa's heart with her stethoscope.

"Blood pressure suddenly rises, the fever is also high" explained Tio who holds Lisa's body which continues to spasm.

Aly sneers in surprise and releases her stethoscope forcefully, "Who gave Lisa the Vaccine?!" asked Aly who looked at every doctor there with a sharp look.

"Sa...me" said Lisa's mother.

"This doctor is the seizure medication you asked for" Alfi thrust an aluminum bowl containing a small bottle and syringe.

Aly injects the drug as much as 2ml and slowly Lisa's seizures begin to subside. Tio, Cici and Lilis who were holding Lisa earlier started to sigh quietly . Aly looked at Lisa's mother with a gaze demanding an explanation.

"Where did you get that drug?" aly asked who was holding back her anger.

Lisa's mother just looked down inside, "Lisa.all night she had a fever and sneezed nonstop. I thought he had the flu, then I asked Dr. Anji for the medicine, but he said that if the flu medicine was empty there was only the flu vaccine medicine. I thought it was the same, so I asked for it" explained Lisa's mother who seemed to hold back tears and worry.

"That's different!" exclaiming Aly who held back her anger, "Call Doctor Anji!" aly's told some doctors there.

Aly adjusted her breathing that was holding back the anger. Anji went into the patient's tent and was immediately given a sharp gaze from every doctor, including Aly. He approached Anji who was still adjusting his breathing and looked down deeply as if he knew his mistake.

"Gim your teeth!" aly whispers to Anji and.

Bugh!

"Came!" yelled Ayda who also came with Anji earlier. He pulled Aly and held Aly's shoulder to calm down.

Aly removes Ayda's hand and approaches Anji, who is still down, "Why did you give her the Vaccine. Why didn't you see how he was?! If you don't know, you can ask me first!"

Anji just fell silent and lowered her head without answering Aly's question.

"Look! Because of your mistake this time, you almost killed someone!" exclaims Aly who threw Anji's body to the ground, "Sorry has hit you" said Aly who left the patient's tent that still feels tense.

Aly walked away from the evacuation area and sat leaning against a coconut tree. He closed his eyes and a tear began to flow. He folded his legs and leaned there looking down.

"O Allah" said Aly, looking up and flicking his hand towards his hot cheek, which was holding in anger.

"So that's how you defuse anger?" Tyno appeared from behind Aly.

Aly did not reply, just look at him as well. He still flicked his hand near her cheek, "Go away, leave me alone" Aly kicked out without seeing Tyno.

Tyno smiled cynically, "You're emotional" Tyno said, standing in front of Aly.

"Then get out of it!" aly's anger seemed to return for a second.

Tyno was silent for a moment, "Shout" he chanted.

"Go"

"Screaming"

"I said go!" aly shouted as her emotions completely came out and along with her buzzing ears.

Tyno approached Aly and hugged her, "Lega isn't it?" ask Tyno gently.

Aly did not reply he just buried his head in Tyno's chest, his cry returning. Tyno tightened his embrace.

"If you feel tight, yell not at the sniff"

A memory appeared and made Aly cry more, "Akra" called out to Aly.

Tyno knew that in his first decade, she was the most fragile woman who pretended to be strong. The same woman as him who had been destroyed, but she only wanted to unite the pieces of shards to become one again.

"Calm down, I'm here" Tyno said softly.

Pov Alfi

I breathed a rough sigh inside the medicine tent. I thought about what happened to Aly. And how Captain Tyno calmed Aly down earlier it felt like I wanted to tell him, but there was still Arif and David. Again I breathed a rough breath.

"Haishh is heavy" I chirped as I held my head.

"What's heavy?"

I was surprised to hear that familiar voice and immediately raised my head and saw Alfan looking at me in wonder, "Alfan? Since when are you here?" I ask who is still surprised.

"Since you've been pensive"

'Haha kudak' thought I who immediately thought about what I had thought earlier.

"What are you doing?" asked Alfan in a soft tone.

When I saw his eyes the worried look was obvious there, "I was thinking about Doctor Aly" I replied lethargicly, 'My mind and heart are completely muddled'.

Brak!

I kicked the table and surprised him, "Alfan I really can't bear to hold this"

"Hiding feelings?" his god while raising his eyebrows.

"Ihh Alfan I want to be serious this" my annoyance that actually closes my shame.

"You're being serious? Okeyh!" he said as he approached me and while in front of me he crouched down and took my right hand, "Do you want to be my lover?" alfan asked with a smile to tease me.

"Ekhmm sorry to interrupt" the intrusion of someone who made me hurriedly pull my hand from Alfan's grasp, "Alfi you're called Ayda"

"After him" Alfan grumbled that only I could hear.

"I'm okay first" my saying went straight to leaving the men behind.

The alfi pov end.

David approached Alfan who had just stood up, "Maybe you have managed to win his heart, but that does not mean you have embraced his heart" said David who had a jealous tone and challenged Alfan there.

Alfan smiled cynically, "We'll see, you or I will embrace that heart" Alfan challenged David back.

The two men looked like they were competing for first place. No one will give up, even if one of them will lose later.
