Bound Mumtaz
246

Hito ran hastily accompanied by great concern to Zahra's room upon hearing from Heru that Zahra had fainted after operating on Mumtaz.

as one of the owners of Hito hospital cursed in the heart on how the hospital works.His engagement just survived the kidnapping, was included in the operation adelia which took hours l, l, continued operating Mumtaz which time is longer.however Zahra does not collapse.

Brakhs....

Hito opened the door violently, matany was immediately fixed on the pale face of her peaceful lover in her bed.

" Sshhhh." one finger Farhan before his mouth as a loud door rang out in the quiet room.

" Where's the situation? how did he faint? who's that...." Hito asked with a row as he stepped near his bed.

" He slept, not fainted. I'm the mint Adi joined in Mumtaz operation." cut Farhan while fixing Zahra's blanket on his body.

" Sleep is very good, I cut him here he does not move at all. If I hadn't checked his pulse I thought he was dead."

" Panteslah he's right, he just operated on Adel, Lo did not think..."

" I know, if I am able or do not need his abilities, I will not call him. long before Lo knew him, and so his fiancee, he was, I was always the first one to worry about him."

Hito memicing on Farhan, "don't nething. as a lecturer I know his talent and ability.I'm always worried he's exhausted because of work at the cafe', tutoring other students, ngajar tutoring other students, not to mention the complicated research that would have adverse effects on his health, so simple ramblings Lo who is like a grandmother complex it."

" Lo's sure Lo cares about him just because of his lecturer Lo? I'm not sure about ya."

" It's not just Lo who is suspicious about my concern, but all my students.if they know the ability that Zahra has rarely owned other doctors today, for example, only two doctors in Indonesia are able to do Zahra in Mumtaz surgery, the one in Surabaya even then he is in America, if we maxain waiting for him just because Zahra is tired, he said, sister-in-law candidate Lo has finished on the operating table. WANT THAT TO HAPPEN?" press Farhan slightly raised the voice.

" Oh, I'm sorry, there's no need to make a point, Lo, it's not polite." Hito said.

" MAJOR, TO ..BODO. If I don't Inget Lo my boss I've chopped Lo's mouth."

Farhan with a shaky step towards the patient's special spare mattress, "I don't have the energy to go back to the room, I'm sleeping here."

There was a fine snoring from Farhan after five minutes he lay there. Hito was sitting on the bedside chair looking at Sayu Zahra.

He stroked the head of the woman he loved so much, sometimes he often asked why God gave so much to Zahra, so big, even too big. Sometimes he felt unable to control himself for his feelings for this tiny woman in front of him.

Hito kissed Zahra's forehead deep, "good sleep, baby. stop making me sport heart mulu." he said softly.

 The plump hand was now the target of his affection, he held and gently stroked the hand, occasionally fuming in and shahdu. His own body was very tired, yet he was reluctant to sleep, afraid that something would prove fatal.

" Oh my God, take care of him, please take care of him. I can't imagine what if I lose her." Hito sat down with his forehead pressed against the back of Zahra's hand.

There have been many events that have happened that almost claimed the life of this lover because of his family, he felt what he did was not how much compared to the sacrifice Zahra saved his grandmother.

Long in that position slow lauon Hito's eyes closed too, finally drowsiness because of fatigue is more dominant.

In the ICU room, blocked by glass walls Zayin stood looking at the tiny body surrounded by medical devices to keep him afloat.

Tightness filled her chest every time Adelia's shadow dispelled the bullet for her sake, how in a dying state, the girl still cared about it.

His mouth chuckled bitterly as he recalled the girl still regressing him even though he himself groaned in pain.

Without being able to prevent clear circles down from the tip of her eyes, I swear, for whatever sake she has tried hard to hold the cry, because Adelia very much dislikes him crying.

Pukkp...

One touch on his shoulder, returning it to reality, Zayin wiped his tears turning to Heru who was standing beside him.

" You sleep, rest first." Zayin.

" You've been standing here for hours, watching your body."

" Aren't you angry with me? because I'm Adel lying there."

" His mind is angry, but I think you will complain to him, and he is more angry back at me, duh, meningan not deh than ngedengerin careless he who is like the express train."

Zayin chuckled at the thought that the tiny mouth was about to bring his father.

" What's the situation with Eidel?"

" It's stable, Ziva who's worried about his health."

" Are you not angry with me?"

" No, you're still his dream candidate. How could he be angry with you."

" What after this is that brother Eidel still wants to make me his former candidate? I caused Adel there?" zayin said softly with his chin pointing at Adelia.

Heru understands the guilt that has plagued Zayin's heart, as well as his late self to find his centile daughter.

" I last yelled at him, he sacrificed his life for me, my God, if God wants to pick him up through the angel Izrail, I can't forgive myself. I just made you lose your jewels. Sorry, I'm sorry! Hicks..." Zayin was crying again.

" Lord, this is so painful." Bathinnya.

" You're tired so your mind digresses. That's a sign you have to sleep, no objection, Zayin." Heru who Zayin obeyed.

With slow steps, Zayin went to Mumtaz's study, forcing her eyes to close. Bayu and William can only stare at his friend's concerned, without being able to do anything else.

A legal entertainment, persuasion.Nobody can ease the burden of his mind, only the miracle of God can get Zayin out of the pit of his misery.

Two weeks ago the two men were lying in the ICU room, many people have visited, not only campus friends, but officials, businessmen, and many other people, both domestically and abroad who happened to be in Indonesia also visited. 

The hospital is now heavily guarded for security, news of Mumtaz's condition finally sticking out to the media, many media crews who hunt for news about him, his friends could not believe the importance of the figure of Mumtaz until the coming is not canned people.

" If Mumuy knew he was the news center, he'd be mad at Lo, Fa." Jeno said, they are still faithfully waiting not far from the ICU room, Even this hallway seems to have become their hangout.

" Why am I wronged?" Alfaska did not accept himself being blamed.

" Yes Lo can not silence the media, even though with the wealth that Lo has if you want the media can be diem." Rijal.

" Sometimes he's weird, Kok so people don't want to be popular, while others seek popularity in a disgusting way." rent Alfaska who was once upset with the attitude of *low profile* Mumtaz.

" Where's Inu?" Ask Haikal.

" Mumtaz must have cleaned up again, he wouldn't let us let alone hospital staff touching Mumuy's body" Daniel replied.

" Is Radit with him?"

" Always, if Inu's not sure it's still roaring." Answer Daniel.

Suddenly several doctors ran into the ICU room, making the young men stand tense.

" What's up?" Ask panicked Alfaska.

No one answered, they saw Eidelweis coming out of the room crying in Heru's arms.

" Sister, what's wrong?" Daniel asked, they approached the couple.

" Adel's hand was moving, Niel. This is a good sign for her." Answer Heru.

" Amminn." Say them in unison.

After a while the doctors came out of the ICU, they moved closer, hoping for anxiety.

" Thank God, Miss Adelia has passed her critical period. We'll keep an eye on the next developments in the next three days."

" Thank God.pa..Adel we're strong, Pa." The crying of Eidelweis haru.

While in another room ICU, Ibn while shedding tears and Radit who watched him painstakingly clean Mumtaz who was still motionless amid the many medical devices as a support for his life.

" Nu, I heard the tears that invited iron on a large scale. You're not afraid it will affect Mumuy's health? from then on, Lo's tears touched her."

Ibnu stared bored at Radit who grinned the horse at him." relax, I think Lo will believe my words. ponakan I talked about it so just believe me."

" How old is Lo's ponakan?" Ibnu asked while continuing the ritual of massage Mumtaz time, he just did not want Mumtaz to experience muscle weakness when the chest later, hopefully his best friend was quickly aware.

" Six years."

Pukkp....

Ibnu remapr lap used Mumtaz memberishakn on Radit who chuckles.

In Radit's heart, he was happy these two hearts Ibn was already willing to respond to his words and respond to his crisp jokes.

It was not easy for him to restore Ibnu after this one man was hit by a matter that shook his psyche which ended up his most valuable friend lying helpless.

During this one week Zayin has been preoccupied with their daily training interrupted by writing reports related to Navarro with his colleagues.

If he does not remember his dream of becoming an elite Navy force he will take time off and wait in the hospital, but this exercise is the provision for him to go to his dream.

Now with Bayu, and William. Zayin was at the TNI headquarters facing the commander, KASAL, KASAD, and other expert staff to report on his work related to Navarro and other matters.

" So he's dead?" Ask commander.

" Otw."

" Cook, otw. Answer for sure, Zayin. We must not let our guard down." lamented KASAL who always felt furious and grim with the answers to his men.

" It's RaHasiYa's business, but if you read my report and the footage of her last moments in the RaHasiYa building, do you think she can still run away and be free? I'm sure I can't."

" Yes, too. But could he have called his partner?"

" How to call, just move he can't."

" Have you confirmed that?"

" With my own head I saw his body already being the food of the animals of the land."

" Dress, RaHasiYa, Atma Madina. Join in taking care of him. I'm sure there's no gap for him to be free." Full of burning anger as Zayin said that.

" Well, I'll take your report, with this case Navarro closed and will remain a secret case of the TNI and the state." Commander typing hammer.

" For a while the three of you I rested from duty until the headquarters needed you, especially you Zayin, you seemed to lack rest."

" My future wife is in the ICU, of course I lack rest. I'm worried about his recovery." Zayin's remarks about the future wife made two colleagues and his best friend raise his eyebrows in wonder.

" We sympathize, you can disperse."

Just closed the door, the clink of his phone rang." Hello."

"  *To the hospital, Adel nanyain Lo*."

Zayin was surprised to flinch on the spot, "seriously? Lo imprank me, I boocrin to bang Akbar if you have a crush on Ical." He threatened his interlocutor, Adgar.

" *Ck, speed, this is his son crying mute want to see Lo. Kangen said*."

" Any ready, say the same wife-to-be. I'm otw." Zayin terminated his connection without waiting for adgar to answer.

" Adel is conscious, I went to the hospital first. Meal plan together, we're pending."

" When can that be. We're going straight there." said William.

" Yes." Yeah."

" Lo's got my piggyback, Lo's banned from riding motorcycles, right." William ran behind Zayin.

" Snap his run, snail Lo."

" The last one is the parking lot of steak tracts as much as possible." Bayu's speech ran faster ahead of the others

" Absolute.cheating woy." Shouted William annoyed at the abandonment of his friends.

Commander and KASAL saw his men while shaking their heads at the childish attitude of his men." If they don't see their abilities first hand, people won't believe that they will be candidates for the elite forces of Kopaska and Yontaifibi." Commander-in-chief.

" Dena is heartbroken to hear that Zayin has a future wife." Kasal. Dena, the daughter of the commander-in-chief, had long taken a heart for Zayin who never got a reply from her.

" The rival five-year-old will be busy calming me down" Dena." The TNI official walked in with small talk leaving the headquarters.

\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*

At the hospital, Adelia cried roaring because she did not see Zayin when she realized, Heru and the rest of the Hartadraja family were overwhelmed to respond.

Heru pressed the emergency button to see Adelia holding her chest which was immediately grasped by Heru considering there were still medical devices there.

Adelia has been transferred to the hospital room due to the significant improvement of her condition, but since four days from the moment she realized she had not seen Zayin despite being contacted, Adelia cried every day.

Only once Adel asked his parents, when they had to go home and get clothes, after Zayin was the one who always asked Adelia, even Crystal's existence couldn't take the five-year-old's mind off the man of his dreams.

" Aa Ayin must have cheated on her if Adel later bobo." Adelia Whine.

" No way, Ayin is loyal to her man." Answer Adgar.

" But where? until Aa Ayin did not look at Adel."

" He's busy, Del. Take the criminals."

" Gar, go get Zayin." Pinta Sri's grandmother who did not have the heart to see her great-granddaughter continued to hold her chest because she was claustrophobic too much crying.

" Udah, Bayu had sent a message to answer that they were in a meeting with the commander." Adgar himself was panicked to see Adelia's face getting pale.

Chequek...

" Excuse me, we're going to check on the patient." The doctor and two nurses came in.

Heru pulled Adgar out of the room." You once again try to contact Zayin, om do not have the heart to see Adel constantly cry calling him."

" Alright, um. Let Zayin come as soon as possible.

" Thank you, Gar."

 " Okay om, he's my cousin too, no show thanks ya." Adgar moved away while pulling out his phone.

Heru sat on the bench waiting to rest himself in front of the room, Hito walked up to him, sitting beside him.

" Ru, don't always tense up any asphyxiation Adel."

" I know, I'm just afraid he's back to critical."

Hito noticed the tired face of his sister-in-law, "what is Lo hiding?"

" From Adelia's conscious and out of her criticism is Zayin who she calls, I feel I failed to be a good father to her."

" Ck, not that. Adel was from the past bucin same as Zayin."

" But he doesn't need to call Zayin." Sewot.

" This is Lo's story again jealous?" Hito accused him with the mimic of mocking.

" Ck, not that. Jealousy time, he's my son."

" And as far as I know, I'm always jealous that her daughter likes other men. Lo inget papa mad big until nyamperin bang Damian even nonjok his face when sister Julia said she fell in love with Damian bang."

Heru silently pondered, now he could feel why a father was more protective of his daughter than his son.

Unwillingness when the child who always adores him looks at other men with admiration, when he is no longer the only man who makes his son happy.

Actually every Adelia was blessed by Zayin, Heru felt her heart was sliced in pain, her ego was pinched.

They stood up when the doctor finished checking and left.

Heru was about to go inside when Hito said to her." Ru, Zayin's a good boy. It's just sheer admiration, there's no need to bother."

" But she always rejected Adel."

" Not resisting, Zayin wants Adel to be a normal psychic child according to his age. Zayin cares more about Adel than anyone, we know that."

" But I can't keep Adel constantly having thoughts he likes Zayin."

" Someday will come a man who changes his feelings, he no longer sees Zayin."

" I'm not sure, Zayin who is rarely at home he always remembers and records his longing there are many men fight it."

" I can't wait to see him disappointed when Zayin turns him down. It would be nice if he just felt amazed as Lo said, but I could see and feel that it was nothing more than awe." Heru went into the room, where Adelia was still crying.

Hito fell silent, he did not expect the five-year-old to have such deep serious feelings for the adult man.

When everyone persuaded Adelia who had calmed down a bit, the door was opened by someone in a blue dongker uniform complete with his hat.

" Assalamualaikum."  They turned their heads in shock at the handsome, dashing man who stepped in and greeted everything.

" AAA....UHUK..."

" Adel, relax. Don't have to be that grit." Eidelweis rubbed his back.

" Thank God, you came too, Yin. Adel nanyain you are just that." Grandma Sri.

Zayin gave a small smile in response, settling down to greet all of Zayin standing beside Adelia who was stretching out her arms for hugging.

Zayin was happy to realize the wishes of his beloved duck.

" Adel kangen Aa, Aa does not miss Adel, I don't want to look at Adel."

Zayin silently did not answer, only a nod that he gave behind Adelia's neck. He could not speak, his feelings were now filled with a thousand flavors.

Heru and Eidelweis who were standing not far from there could see Zayin's wet eyes, the clear fur had already soaked his cheeks, before long Zayin sobbed his feelings, hugging tightly without hurting Adelia.

In normal time Zayin would have clucked at the expression of the duck alay, but at this time, Zayin also felt what Adelia felt.

Just then when she opened the door and saw Adelia who was staring at her her her heart bursting with joy, relief, and gratitude at the same time.

The round eyes that always stared adoringly at him had been closed for too long until he felt himself frustrated.

After wiping his tears Zayin broke his embrace, he looked at Adelia inside."  I also miss Adel. Later can not be bobo for long or Aa does not want to see Adel again." Zayin pretended to be angry.

" Yes, not anymore. Sorry Adel."

" Of course, pretty. I must be sorry Adel. Aa was so scared yesterday when Adel bobo, never again like that." Zayin kissed Adel's old and solemn forehead.

" Yeahaa... Adel dicivm Aaaa...Mama married Adel, she married,..Ma." cried Adelia too excited, Zayin chuckled no less happy.

" Cih, tacky. it's normal too." ledek Adgar.

" Dh, ili says jones." reply to Adelia with a defiant look.

" Aa, lose to Ical. he already has a pacal."

" What? lying." lying."

" Dh, don't believe me to ask directly."

" Really, cal?"

The crystal I was holding in amber innocently nodded." What's name?" ask Nadya amused.

" Hallis."

" Eyebrows?"

" Ck, Halis, Aa. Chris." - halris." Crystal forced herself to call the letter R.

" Well, didn't you tell me you had a boyfriend?" akbar, who is possessive with his little sister, holds Crystal.

" forget."

" Big, Cal?" ask Eidelweis.

" Such a handsome man, Tan."

chatter meng nai Crystal who already has a boyfriend continues to roll without realizing the murky face of Adgar who sits in a corner seat.

" Haris, Gar." whispered Zayin.

" Sin."
