SAWMILL
262. FINALLY LEFT WITH A BODY
The management process to retrieve this corpse takes a long time. It's four in the afternoon. We were still sitting in the morgue waiting room, in front of us was a large Styrofoam box that was usually used to carry cold bottled drinks when there was a night market in my village.
But this Styrofoam box in front of me does not contain cold drinks, but contains animal innards, internal organs and chelamins that were sent by Mr. Jay's friend.. and the smell was a bit pungent even though the styrofoam was already tightly sealed.
Ambulance sent by Mr. Joko in accordance with the information on the departure time is most likely now close to the hospital morgue.
“Old pocket huh sir?” ask Tina
“Most likely being injected formalin first mbak, in accordance with the standards here, because the corpse said Mr. Zak has rotted. So need special handling” replied Mr Hendrik
Doctor Karim Jay's friend has returned, because he must be in the hospital this morning where he works.. So there's only me here, Tina's mom, Jay's dad and Hendrik's guy who takes care of the bodies.
“Wait a minute, I will go to the admin section first to ask for the corpse that we will bring to hotel” said Mr. Jay then stood up and walked towards the morgue administration section
Not long after Jay left, an ambulance went into the parking lot of the morgue building, I memorized the ambulance, the ambulance was the hospital ambulance where Doctor Joko was.
I approached the ambulance driver after parking his vehicle close to the morgue exit.
“Pak.. sampeyan from doctor Joko?”
“Goddess sir.. I was told to see Mr. Agus said doctor Joko” replied the aged ambulance driver
“I Agus sir. Uh we just wait, sir, because the body is not ready, still taken care of pak”
“Then I just buy coffee for a while in the front shop there Mr. Agus. I ask for five minutes, because I was a bit sleepy” said the driver.
The driver went out of the morgue area, he was allowed to buy coffee that would be packed in plastic to be quick, because I thought the body would soon be removed from the morgue.
When I returned to the waiting room, Mr. Hendrik called me..
“Pak Agus.. You are called Jay sir, told to the administration for some signatures as a family of the dead body mr X it” said Mr. Hendrik.
I ran into the administration room where I testified that the body we were about to take was my family.
Mr. Jay was already waiting in front of the administration desk, a nun then gave me a set of prayer tools, uh gave me some papers that I should sign.
There is no meaningful conversation….. After the signature, the nurse then gave me a piece of paper for the release of the corpse.
“Pak Agus.. We chat in the waiting room later” whispered Mr. Jay when the administration nurse entered the room in it.
After finishing the administration, Jay and I headed to the waiting room, the ambulance driver was beside the ambulance while sipping coffee with plastic cups
“Eh koh Hendrik, mas Agus, and mbak Tina. we have a little problem that I do not know how to” said pak jay.
“And the advice of the nurse, do not open the shroud, fearing that the rotten meat stuck in the shroud will be released because the decomposition process of the corpse is so severe”
“Indeed earlier had been injected formalin again, so that the process of decay runs slowly... but said the sister must still not open the shroud, where and who will later perform surgery and take internal organs and chelamin from the corpse”
“And where will the surgery be done, after that the corpse that we have taken his internal organs, we save the corpse?” ask Jay confusedly
“Gini only Koh... the important thing is that the corpse comes out first from the hospital, for surgical problems and everything else we think of when we are on the street, he said, and for sure the corpse from here must go directly to hotel”, said Mr. Hendrik
“Eh mas Agus, like ask a doctor Joko how?” ask Jay sir
“Yes no papa sir Jay, but who talks sir Jay only, do not I pack, to make it better pak”
“Ya already..later when the trip there, I will call doctor Joko” said Jay sir
Not long after someone called my name, it turned out that the door of the morgue room was open, there was someone coming out of the morgue
The ambulance driver immediately opened the back door of the ambulance, after which he helped us lift a simple coffin made of zinc or albasia into the ambulance.
The smell of chemicals that came out of this chest had made me nauseous.although it was already memorized and sealed by the coffin, but the smell of these corpse preservatives still smelled.
Once all is done and the ambulance door is closed…
“Which comes with me?” ask the ambulance driver
“I only pak”
“My name is also pak” says Tina
“Sorry mom, if sitting in front is a bit narrow you know.. “ obviously the driver.
“Mbak Tina with me and sir Hendrik just mbak... mas Agus so it's there” said pak Jay+.
“Mas Agus bring my phone only, so that later we can easily communicate” said Jay gave his phone
At five o'clock, thirty minutes in the evening, we departed from the morgue.
The city of Styrofoam is in the trunk of Jay's car, and I'm in the ambulance with the body we're about to cut off to get his organs.
The journey to the village may be taken in more than two hours, meaning that until there is eight at night, then nights what should still be done dissection of the corpse.
