THERE'S ALWAYS A LEANING PLACE
Surviving in the Hospital

Just a few steps out of the peristi room, doctor Haris seemed to walk over. His long steps were so fast that in an instant he was already standing in front of a wheelchair.

“You guys are out looking at baby Via?” ask Mr. Haris.

“Yes, someone else's baby time? What father, anyway?” Azka grumbling.

“Dad not just you,” sergeant Mr. Haris.

“Lho, I asked you. Azka one of the among ...” Azka speech stopped because it was cut off Bu Aisyah.

“Already, why even argue that is useless, anyway? We've been looking at baby Via. Thank God, the BB continues to rise,” said Bu Aisyah.

“Meet doctor Wibowo?” ask Mr. Haris again.

“Iya, Dad. Doctor Wibowo is young, handsome, friendly too,” replied Azka.

“You have a crush, Ka?” canda Bu Aisyah while glancing at her youngest son.

“Ih, Mother what? Azka's still normal, Bun. Cook bananas eat bananas? Which really is. Beautiful girls are also many who love,” refute Azka by pursing her lips.

“Ngantri tickets? Want to watch a movie?” Mr. Haris is teasing Azka.

“Ngantri proposed Azka, Dad,” sahut Azka furious.

“Indeed you want to apply for how many people?” Ms. Aisyah is still in Azka-literate mode.

“Come,” replied Azka cuek.

Pak Haris and Bu Aisyah chuckled amusedly. While Via just smiled.

“We're back to the room, yuk!” bring Via.

Azka pushes the wheelchair towards the treatment room Via. Pak Haris and Bu Aisyah followed Azka's steps.

Once in the room, Ms. Inah was already inside. He seemed agitated because he did not know where Via had gone. He was only told by the nurse that Via came out with Ms. Aisyah.

“Mbak Via from where?” asked Bu Inah as soon as he saw Via enter.

“His looking at Dedek, Mom. After the long time Bu Inah to the laundry,” replied Via.

Slowly get down and walk to bed. His surgical scars still hurt as he walked.

“O yes, did you guys chat with doctor Wibowo?” ask Dr. Haris.

“Iya,” replied Bu Aisyah briefly.

“Iya, Dad. Doctor Wibowo explains at length times height, eh no ding. Only long width does not use high.  Mother wants to know the details of the condition of the baby's grandpa.

If you ask Dad, it is not necessarily explained so in detail. I got a motion

can't believe it now,” Azka continued accompanied by laughter.

“Basic soplak. It's people don't-don't contract Mr. Gibran,” Inner Via.

Mr. Haris looked at Azka sharply. But the guy remained

cuckold with his laugh. The father was lazy to serve the absurdity of Azka.

“Via, I spoke with Linda and Ari. You're allowed to go home today. Next week you control to check the condition of your relationship,” said Mr. Haris.

Via stunned. Usually, a patient will be happy to hear the news he is allowed to go home. However, Via gave a different reaction.

“What's up, Via? You can't go home?” ask Ms. Aisyah.

Via sighed deeply and then replied, “Via happy and sad, Mother. On one side of the Via already misses the atmosphere. On the other side

Via heavy leaving dedek here.”

“You can see it every day,” said Bu Aisyah.

“What if something happens? He is still weak,” said Via lirih.

All speechless. They can understand the concerns of the heart Via.

“Then, you want it how?” ask Ms. Aisyah.

“If you can, Via wants to stay in the hospital until the grandpa can be taken home. How, Dad? Can, yes?” pinta Via is hopeful.

Mr. Haris is silent. He is considering everything.

“If it is here, obviously it cannot. This is the inpatient room. This is the right of the patient in need

treatment here. What if you occupy Dad's room? Room too

not too far from the room. But, Father does not allow you

alone. There should be accompanying like here.” Mr. Haris made an offer.

“Good, Via agree. Later Bu Inah or Mbok Marsih accompanied Via. Can you, Mom Inah?” Via

looking at Bu Inah.

“Can, I will accompany here,” replied Bu Inah steady.

“Then, later after lunch, you move to the room where Dad rested overtime. Of course not like your room at home,” said Mr. Haris.

Via laughed softly. Relief emanated from his face.

“Iya, Dad. Via knows, really. Importantly, Via can be near baby Via,” said Via.

They also cleaned things up. At 13:00 they moved the items to a special room.

Special room doctor Haris measuring 4 X 6 meters. Inside is a small bed, work desk, long sofa, small refrigerator, and wardrobe. A 20-inch television was attached to a white wall.

“How, are you okay to book this room?” Mr. Haris made sure.

“It's okay, Dad. The important thing is that Via can see the baby Via at any time,” replied Via steady.

“Mother cannot accompany you during the day, Via. Except Saturday Sunday. Mother has often permission when the clock is empty,” said Bu Aisyah.

“Iya, Mother. Via understand, kok,” said Via with a smile.

“Now, rest! Mother wants to go to school first. Ms. Inah, monitor the diet and

break Via, yes! Also remember to take your medicine! Make sure he takes the medicine

on time according to dosage,” order Bu Aisyah.

“Ready, Mistress uh Bu,” replied Bu Inah.

“I also farewell, yes. I'm going to see Rio. He said he wanted to do something,” Azka said.

Mr. Haris also left the room. Only Via and Bu Inah exist.

At the same time, Edi came to deliver a laptop orders Via. He also brought the needs of other Via.

“This is the laptop that Mbak asked for. I have sent a report last week via email,” obviously Edi was sambi; put the laptop and on the desk work.

“Thank you, Mas. O yes, how is the implementation of our project? Is there a constraint?” ask Via.

“Alhamdulillah, all smoothly.”

“Aalhamdulillah's. Means as long as I can't get to the office, everything is safe, huh?”Via trying

ensure.

“God willing as it is.”

“Thank God,” said Via while breathing a sigh of relief.

Their conversation stopped because there was a sound of the door being knocked by the greetings. After the greeting was answered, three girls appeared from behind

doorway.

“Hai my dear! How are you doing? More beautiful aja, nih,” exciting the front girl. Who else if not Ratna.

“Who was it, who was it? Via gitu lo,” sahut Via.

Ratna, Mira, and Salsa chuckled. They sat on a long sofa.

“Kok did not bother to move here. We were nyariin lo. Thankfully there was a good nurse

heart knows. Very bad, anyway,”omel Ratna.

“I just moved here. Actually, I can go home. But I don't have the heart

ninggalin. Hence, father revealed me here,” explained Via.

“You're alone, Dek?” ask Mira.

“Not. Here you guys, there is Mas Edi too,” replied Via relaxed.

“I mean, if we go home later tonight Dek Via itself?” Mira repeated her question.

“No, there is Bu Inah who accompanies. Dad doesn't want me to be alone. Now on to musala.”

“What is your baby's condition?” ask Ratna.

“The weight is still very less, the bilirubin is still high, and the breathing is still assisted.”

They also ask a lot about baby Via. It was as if he was being interviewed.

“Kok I became like a witness being questioned by investigators, anyway?” via protests.

They just laughed seeing Via pouting.

“Can be curious about your son. Anyway, we can't see the grandpa, anyway,” Ratna said.

“O Yes, when would Mas Edi want to propose to Mbak Mira? Do not over time, later struck by people,” said Via switching topics.

Blush.Mira's face flushed. While Edi only scratches the head that does not itch.

“Don't be delayed because of me, Mas! Poor thing, Madam Mira was hanged over time,” continued Via.

“Hanging? Where's ada? Ni Mira is fine. If Mbak Mira is hanged, surely ..” Ratna speech stopped.

“For a long time I ngetok jidatmu use hammer!” cut Via growled.

“Thankfully there are no hammers here,” Ratna said casually.

“There's. Doctor Ardi kept it. I'm calling for a moment,” threatened Via.

“Eits, no need

lust is dong! My head will break, how?” ratna said with a face

weld.

“Do not worry! Not until it breaks, there are most eggs in your jidat,” said Via.

“I'll be like Jarjit Upin Ipin's friend if so,” sewot Ratna.

They laughed off. The atmosphere of the room became warm.

“Auw!” pekik Via's.

“Why, Ma'am?” salsa asked as she ran over.

“After my surgical wound hurts. I forgot earlier.”

“Forgot what?” salsa was worried.

Ratna got up from her seat and came closer.

“Tadi laughed off, so shaken. It's nothing, really. It also healed soon. I fell asleep, yes,” said Via.

Via also broke down. He took a deep breath and exhaled slowly. The mood became quiet.

“Sorry, yes. Because I came here you became sick, “ said Ratna with a sad face.

She smiled at the face of her best friend. Actually, he wanted to laugh, but the pain in his stomach still remained.

“Not to get so excited about it, deh. If you want to drink, take it in the refrigerator! Just get the food out!” orders Via.

See the tone of speech

Via looked relaxed, Ratna and Salsa's worries disappeared. Ratna obey

orders Via. He brought out the food and drink that was then placed in

table by the sofa.

They engage in small talk until the atmosphere is warm again. Their conversation came to a halt when two handsome men stood at the door.
