The sound of shoes clashing with the floor rang out loud along the hospital hallway. Late in the afternoon there was a man walking half-run towards one of the nurseries. He was the Febrian who had heard the news of his wife falling down the stairs and bleeding.
The panicked and worried face was clearly drawn on the man's countenance. Arriving in front of the nursery that has been notified by the information department officer, his steps slowed down slightly. In front of the ward, Vivian sat next to her husband.
Hearing the approaching step, Vivian raised her face. The woman's face looked hardened looking at who was coming. With breath and a face full of anger. Vivian stood up from her seat and without warning, smashed Febrian's arm with the bag in her hand.
" What the fuck are you?.'' asked Febrian to find a rude attitude from his wife's friend.
" You are nothing, not satisfied with Alira ? . Yes, if people once bengseek still angseek."say Vivian ketus with a sharp gaze .
'' What do you mean ?, Alira how is she?, where is she ?''. Febrian panic.
'' If it wasn't for you, Alira wouldn't be like gini, brengseek lo brengseek!!!.'' shouted Vivian stifled, her face flushed red and her tears began to flow.
Febrian stared confusedly with a stiffened face. Nicho who saw the emotions of the wife approached and clasped his wife's body.
'' Sstttt, calm down, don't make a fuss. Poor Alira.'' said softly Nicho as he hugged and rubbed the back of the wife, who looked as much as he could.
When Febrian stepped in to approach the door of the ward. The door opened revealing the mother's sour face.
'' Ma.'' call Febrian who got a sharp look from her mother.
'' Alira how did Ma ?.'' asked Febrian, Mama approached the son and looked at her son with a look of disappointment.
" Take Mama Bri." tell Mama firmly.
" Brian wants to see Alira Ma, how is he doing?" said Febrian with a worried look.
" Come with Mama, or do you want Alira to be worse than this?" asked Mama with a judgmental look.
" What does Mama mean ?.'' Febrian was really confused by the people who greeted him with anger. Mama breathed slowly.
Finally Febria resigned to follow the steps of the mother who left the nursery after asking Vivian and Nicho to replace her to take care of the daughter-in-law.
" This means what Bri ?, mama is disappointed with you ." said Mama while giving Alira's cellphone . Febrian receives with frown. He still doesn't understand what's really going on.
When Febrian opened the wife's phone with a password that had been very memorized, he had not yet thigh what he meant.
" What's the matter Ma?" asked Febrian puzzled.
" The message that someone sent this morning to Alira, that's why Alira went to the hospital. And that's you Bri ." Mama growled she's late he said. Febrian who saw the eyes of anger from Mama immediately opened the incoming message from the number without a name.
Febrian is shocked by a picture of her with Marsha in one room.
The man looked at the mother who was standing next to him. A sharp look seemed to draw his heart.
'' Brian's Oath does not say anything about Marsha Ma.'' said Brian. The mother seemed to breathe. Look at the hospital where they are now.
'' Two adults in one room ?. Do you think Mama should believe your words?.'' The cold voice came out of Mama's mouth.
'' For God's sake Ma, Brian didn't betray Alira.'' Febrian grabbed Mama's hand, staring at her with a sad look. I hope your mom believes in her.
" Can Mama trust you?" asked Mama softly. The disappointment in his heart still prevailed. It was inconceivable how hurt the daughter-in-law was to see a picture of her husband in one room with another woman in such clothes.
" Brian could have sworn Ma, Brian didn't do that" Febrian said. Mama seemed to breathe. Look at the child with a worried look.
" Hopefully what you said Bri, you must convince Alira that you are not repeating the same foolishness. He was hurt because of you. And now he has to get hurt again. Mama can't imagine how sick she is." said Mama with a glare. Febrian can only sculpt. When Mama left her, she was still glued . Not moving from where he stood.
His hand tightly grasped Alira's phone which was in his hand. His eyes looked sharp. The man's face looked hardened. Why else would he be stuck with a woman ?. He would never let another woman into his life again. Alira was his breath, he was half a life, which he could not let go.
