Alea immediately got out of the car, when the vehicle driven by Erwin had stopped in the house's courtyard.
"Stop first, Mas, say goodbye to Dad."
Erwin followed Alea's steps, got out of the car, and immediately entered with his future wife.
Alea opened the door first, then frowned at the sound of her father groaning from inside the room.
Strange things were lodged in Alea's head, and then she immediately ran to her father's room.
"Father .." Alea, without permission, entered the room.
"Lea..." Hamzah's breath sounded shaky, like shortness of breath.
Alea immediately took drinking water on the nightstand, then immediately approached her father, lying, and helped him get up.
Alea slowly brought the glass to Hamzah's mouth, then asked what had happened.
Meanwhile, Erwin, who was by Alea's side, helped adjust the pillow so that Hamzah could lean back comfortably.
"Dad took medicine earlier, and the doctor changed the prescription. But it doesn't seem right," he said, his voice still not stable, still sounding breathless.
Even after drinking the water.
Alea took the medicine bottle, and then it turned out that the medicine Hamka was taking was different from the previous prescription.
I don't know if it's an effect or not. Alea did not understand at all. Hamzah's condition was not weak, and even his breathing was still improving, he was still very tight and heavy.
"Let's take him to the hospital. We need medical assistance," said Erwin.
Alea also agreed to take her father to the hospital. The longer it would get worse if left alone.
Erwin then carried Hamzah while Alea brought some necessities.
Hamzah refused to be carried, but Alea insisted. Hamzah was weak and helpless but still stubbornly made Alea dizzy.
I want to scold Hamzah for all the reasons.
One of them asked Alea not to come home, but Alea could tell what her father's nature was, and it was complicated to say.
Alea wiped the beads of sweat on Hamzah's temples, and the middle-aged man was like a fish that lacked air.
Alea repeatedly called her father's name so that her consciousness would not be lost even though she was very anxious.
"Mas.. just hurry up and bring the car. Dad has passed out."
Erwin quickly drove his car, overtaking several trucks to get to the hospital.
Alea called out her father's name again, her condition getting weaker, making Alea continue to sob.
"Yah..wake up...Daddy wakes up," Alea kept calling like that.
However, there was no response from Hamzah. The car driven by Erwin barged into the parking lot, not caring about the security guard who shouted at him.
His father-in-law's condition was critical, and he couldn't possibly panic. The emergency room immediately received Hamzah.
Now doctors and medical personnel immediately check Hamzah's condition while Alea and Erwin wait for him outside. "Dad, it's fine. You don't have to worry," Erwin said, calming Alea.
The woman just nodded without uttering a sound, best able to interlock, squeezing each other's fingers.
Erwin rubbed Alea's shoulder, trying to calm the woman so she wouldn't be too sad.
The doctor also called Alea, the guardian of Hamzah as well as his son.
"Your condition is critical, and you must enter the ICU."
Alea was silent, still listening to the doctor's narrative. How could Hamzah be like that?
Because his condition is very vulnerable, and Hamzah's age is old until he has another disease and becomes a complication.
The sadder it is, how could his father's condition turn critical, even though this morning we still had time for treatment together?
Finally, Hamzah entered the ICU on the doctor's recommendation so that his treatment would be more intensive.
Alea could not accompany him in the room because the patient was not allowed to enter.
Alea's room must be outside and united by bringing a mat and blanket when staying overnight.
Because Hamzah's condition did not allow him to go home, Alea inevitably had to stay at the hospital with such requirements.
Luckily, Erwin wanted to accompany him here.
"You can go home when you're tired," said Alea.
Erwin shook his head, and it was impossible to go home and rest comfortably at home while Alea here alone made Erwin think.
"Mas accompany you here. Father is still not awake. We will go home when Father also comes home," said Erwin.
Alea then leaned her head on Erwin's chest to relieve his tiredness and fatigue.
The two of them could only sit on the chairs provided in front of the ICU without much talking because Alea and Erwin themselves were tired.
The two of them then fell asleep in that condition while waiting for Hamzah was receiving treatment in the intensive room.
*
The day has passed, and now it has become day after night.
Alea's father's condition still hasn't improved. Even though the doctor has given the best
The icon.
"Mas, go home first! I'll come here again, turn with me," said Alea.
Erwin, who was initially heavy, didn't want to go home first. He didn't bring a change of clothes at all, and Alea was the same.
Maybe after he cleaned his body, Erwin would come back here and buy clothes and baths for Alea.
After Erwin came home, Alea was called into the ICU. Put on a robe first before entering the room.
"His father is awake, comes in, and it's 15 minutes," said the nurse.
Alea entered the room, then saw her father's condition, who was lying limp while closing his eyes.
Alea slowly took one hand that looked thin, then rubbed it gently.
"Yeah.." she called softly.
Hamzah opened his eyes, then saw his only daughter, who was by his side.
"Lea.. come here, dear," Hamzah's voice sounded very weak.
Many tubes were attached to Hamzah's body, and even his mouth was covered with a cup for oxygen to enter his respiratory tract.
Helping his infected lungs, "Father is fine, sorry for angering you yesterday," she whispered.
Alea smiled a little because a mask covered her face as whatever her expression at this time would not be seen because of the blue cloth.
"Are you okay, dad?" Alea asked carefully.
Hamzah shook his head, if he usually always covered his body, but not this time.
Hamzah will be honest if he is tired of fighting against his illness, Hamzah admits defeat and chooses to die.
Alea gently stroked the wrinkled hand, then told the development of her relationship with Erwin.
"Alea believes Mas Erwin can be a good husband, Dad." Hamzah is happy to hear that.
Since she met Erwin, Alea has changed a lot, and Hamzah believes that the choice has been exemplary.
"Father is happy. You must be a good wife later," Hamzah then held his daughter's hand.
"I'm sorry, dad," he continued.
"I'm not wrong, Alea, who hasn't been a good child for Dad,"
A nurse approached Alea, saying that her visiting hours were over. Alea came back out after saying goodbye to Hamzah, chatting a lot about this and that.
Relieved that her father had come to his senses, Alea immediately hugged Erwin, who had just arrived at the hospital carrying a paper bag.
Of course, the man named Erwin was surprised when his future wife suddenly hugged him.
All of these things Erwin had to do with Hamzah, afraid that something terrible would happen to his future in-laws.
"Dad's awake, so I'm delighted,"
Erwin breathed a sigh of relief that his future father-in-law was fine and starting to wake up.
Maybe after his condition gets better, Erwin will ask to advance his wedding ceremony so that he can help Alea and Hamzah more freely.
