WOUNDS OF FLOWERS (DUE TO PREGNANCY OUTSIDE MARRIAGE)
Chapters. LI Regret
3 Hours had passed, but the lights of the sign of the operation were still on, making everyone waiting in front of the operating room feel uneasy. But in the heart all pray, expect the generosity of the Creator to provide smoothness in the process of surgery and healing on the Flower.
Mr. Broto, Karlina, Bayu, and Kia looked limp. The repressed reality they got today made their feelings crumble. After the Princess' situation was dealt with, Nathan returned to the front of the operating room where Bunga was undergoing surgery. At that time the family of Bunga asked for an explanation about the life of Bunga for 6 years.
After listening to Nathan's words, their hearts were crushed and crushed. They do not expect the result of their selfishness makes Flowers have to live a life that is really painful. Living in a long way, selling newspapers during pregnancy, bleeding, giving birth prematurely, one of his children died before birth, living ostracized and reviled for having children without a husband and family, and, living in poverty and deprivation, all the sufferings of natural flowers and living alone.
Mr. Broto and Bayu unceasingly cursed themselves, why those who should be protectors even more make the Flower suffer. On second thought, Nathan was guilty, but they were far more guilty. They as family members, father and brother who should be the guardian angel of the Flower, but instead do the opposite. They act like life-seeking angels because without them knowing they are the cause of the greatest suffering in the life of Flowers. Not for a minute, but for years. They never give affection and attention to the Flower, as a result of which the Flower is misguided and mired in deeds that are detrimental to its future. Instead of strengthening, they were acting instead that ended up regretting this time.
As people say, regret is behind, if in front of his name registration, and Mr. Broto and Bayu also justify. If they could be good and fair, perhaps the Flower would not fall for the forbidden act. And had they embraced, rather than repelled, perhaps the life of the Flower would have been better. Maybe he can still go to college, maybe his grandson is still alive, maybe the Princess will not suffer from the dangerous disease, he said, and one thing is for sure, Bunga will not have an accident that almost took his life like this.
'O Allah, I beg you, help the Flower, save the daughter of the servant, O Allah. Slave please, ' watered Mr. Broto in heart. Not only were his eyes currently crying, but his mind was crying as well. That sense of regret completely gnawed at his mind and soul. If he could, he would exchange his life for his daughter. All as long as his daughter survived. Regret, that's all there is right now. All his life, Mr. Broto realized, he never paid attention to Bunga. Moreover, affection, since childhood he never gave it. Only Karlina sincerely loves Bunga, whereas Karlina is the conjugal mother of Bunga. But she loved Bunga like her own biological daughter.
'O Allah, I beg you to save your brother. Love the Flower of God, all his life was filled with lara. I am an evil brother, O Allah, because all my life, you have never paid attention and loved that servant's brother. Servant beg Allah, give the servant the opportunity to be a good sister to Bunga, I beg you, ' watered Bayu with tears that keep racing out of his eye sockets.
Shortly thereafter, the lights of the sign of the operation went out. That's a sign the operation is over. Smile etched even though only thin, hope all prayers and hope to be affirmed by the Khalik.
But it seems like their exam is not over yet. The operation is going well, but that does not mean the condition of the flower has improved. Because of the condition of the flowers that have not been conscious at all since the beginning of the accident, they still have to wait in 1x24 hours. If the Flower does not wake up, then the Flower will re-enter a more thrilling time, namely coma.
...***...
Sobbing together, this is what the family is doing from Bunga. That regret hit them hard. If time could turn back, they would want to go back 6 years. They will definitely embrace the Flower to the point of not getting hurt alone. However, time cannot be replayed. What has been passed cannot come back. They can only improve in the rest of the time which is not much. Remember, the more time increases, the less our time in the world will be. Could they have a chance to improve everything in the rest of their ages? Only othor knows.

"Father," call Princess Iirih. His eyes are soft, his lips pale, his cheeks are now look more thin. Nathan's heart was like being sliced open to see the condition of his little princess like this.
"Yes, honey, the Princess wants something?" nathan asked gently as he rubbed the top of the Princess' head.
The princess shook her head, "mama. Where's mama, pa? Princess wants mama," said the Princess with hopeful eyes.
Nathan bit his lip, he couldn't have said that Bunga wasn't doing well because of an accident.
"Emmm .. Mama's home, baby. Mama has a headache. So papa asked mama to rest at home, there will be papa, Opa, the same Oma who also takes care of the Princess. The princess is not papa!" With a heavy heart, Nathan lied a little. He did not want to make the Princess more sick because he was worried about his mother's condition.
The princess nodded little, "pa, the Princess had met Abang Putra. Keep playing Princess. Princess is a seneng."
Nathan's feelings became even worse after hearing those words. Nathan also forced a smile, although his heart was agitated, he could not possibly show his worries right!
"Well, it must be the Princess! Did you say something?"
The princess nodded, "said Brother, Brother wants to see mom and papa together continue. The princess will tell me that papa has returned so Brother said Brother is happy. Papa won't stay with the Princess again!" asked the Princess who suddenly felt afraid of being left behind.
"No, baby. Papa promised, from this moment until our safety, we will always be together. Papa loves the Princess and Mama. Same with Brother Son too. So the Princess must be healthy, so we can find Abang and doain Abang also, Putri want?"
The princess smiled broadly, "Daughter wants, pa. Mom too!"
"Yes, same mom."
Nathan smiled broadly, still able to talk to the Princess. Even though his body is weak, thankfully the Princess is still able to respond to him. Very inversely proportional to the Flower which now seems to have lost the desire to live. Perhaps the suffering he had endured for a long time made him lose the spirit to survive. Only prayers can they offer, may the Flower soon wake up.
Tok tok ...
The door of the Princess's room was knocked when the new Princess fell asleep again. Shortly thereafter, Karlina, Kia, Bayu, and Mr. Broto were accompanied by Alan. Alan and Stefani were introduced by Nathan to the Flower family. In fact, they have little talk about the problem of the Princess' disease which apparently has not found a way of treatment. But that doesn't mean Alan will just give up. He will still try his best especially this concerns his own grandson.
The heart of Karlina and Mr. Broto throbbed pain to see the condition of the Princess who was not much different from the Flower. So did Bayu and Kia There was a gauze with blood stains under his nose and an infusion needle stuck in his wrist. So heartbreaking. It is still this small but has to bear a fairly rare disease. . With trembling hands, Mr. Broto touched the Princess' cheek.
His mind was struggling, if only he could be wiser, his grandson would definitely not experience something like this. Although this disease is due to genetic disorders, if the flowers are not expelled, surely they can be checked early about this disorder so it is not getting worse like this.
"You're strong, baby. Grandpa and grandma are sure, you can definitely get through this. You are a strong child" said Mr. Broto lirih.
Mr. Broto glanced at the dreamy Karlina while looking at the Princess' pale face.
"Mom," call Mr. Broto down. "Think what?"
"The fate of our grandchildren, mas. What else is it? And .. the Fate of Flowers. What should I tell my sister Lina when she finds out her son and granddaughter are going through this? Lina must be very sad up there. Sister Lina must be disappointed with me for not being able to take care of Bunga and her granddaughter," said Karlina further adding to the list of regrets in Mr. Broto.
