Shadow From the Past
Chapter 87

"Ma, Vano was that phone. Well, Papa's gonna pick up, hunt dead,"

The information was immediately received by Lisa as soon as she entered the room to take her husband to breakfast in the dining room.

Rushing Lisa took her smartphone to see her call history. Right, Vano called three times. Four o'clock earlier, and not too long ago twice.

"When the house calls anyway?"

"Try to go to his room. Somebody wants to talk to Mama maybe,"

Lisa nods obediently at her husband's suggestion that he come to their youngest son's room which they assume is still in the room and will talk to Lisa about something.

Lisa knocked on Dio's door. But there is no truth and He feels like there is no life in there. Soon he opened the door of the room in front of him. His eyes were staring around the empty ones.

"Why is it empty? where's this kid two,"

Lisa went inside to check on the whole thing. Elvina and Vano are not in the room. He nodded slowly with anxiety. He came out after closing the door and went back to his room.

"Pa, Vano and Elvina are not in the room,"

"Well? where'd they go?"

"Yes mother also did not know. When did they run away?"

Lisa spoke while contacting Vano. He would be furious if Vano really ran away. Is it still not willing to let Vano to live in his own house so that Vano and Elvina take a shortcut by blurring? but when are they childish like that? and anyway why would Vano call her if she ran away? erghh his brain was already thinking badly after knowing Vano and Elvina left without saying goodbye.

"Hallo, where is your van? what's an empty room? go with Papa Mama. Where are you El?" He immediately said that when Vano greeted him on the phone.

Vano chuckled softly noticing his annoyed mother. Naturally, this early in the morning He and Elvin left the house without saying anything.

"Sorry Ma I haven't told Papa Mama. So last night you called El and told me that you passed out and were taken to the hospital. So El and I went straight there and didn't think to say goodbye to my mom. I'm sorry, Ma" said Vano explaining why he could not be in the room.

"Fainting? so how's your father-in-law?"

Anxious look was immediately visible from Lisa's face. Likewise Beni who immediately approached Lisa to steal the conversation between his wife and child. Lisa whispers to tell her that her father Elvina is unconscious and is rushed to the hospital.

"The doctor said dad had too much thought and stress. Keep the platelets also down so again treated here. And just now, Papa's body temperature is high,"

The call that has been diloud speaker by Elvina makes Beni also able to listen to what Dio said.

"O Allah," Beni immediately gasped to learn of Arman, his besi.

"Yes, Van. You were there first yes, accompanied by El and Mother Early," Lisa's message directly without further ado on her first child. Surely Elvina and Dini are not okay to know the condition of the man who is a hero in their lives both of them.

"Yes, Ma. I didn't work today. I'm not going anywhere,"

"Yes, Son. The matter of your clothes El later mama brought there huh,"

"Yes, Ma. Please pray for me, Dad,"

"Yes, honey, definitely,"

Beni takes over his wife's phone and changes his conversation with Vano. "Van, you should always be with them. That's Arman's father and your parents, so your concern should be great too. They again need you especially Arman does not have a son. This morning my mom went there, yeah,"

"Yes, Pa,"

Beni returned the sophisticated object in his grasp to the owner.

"Mama prepare clothes first for El Sama Vano. Maybe they'll stay there until Arman's situation is better,"

"Yes, that must be it, Ma. El couldn't have let his own mother. And Vano is also unlikely to leave El and his in-laws,"

Lisa returns to the son's room to prepare Vano and Elvina's clothes which she will take to the hospital.

****

Vano chose to talk to his parents outside the care room of his father-in-law because again he was afraid to interfere with Arman's rest.

He jumped as soon as his shoulder was touched. He looked over and found Elvina staring at him.

"Why did you come out?"

"Fear to disturb dad. My mom said the same to me, if they wanted to come here this morning,"

"Oh, who called my mom?"

Vano nodded twice. Elvina cleared her throat then she turned her heels to return to the room.

"Why? suspect I called the others? no, I was just talking to my mom and dad. Don't be so suspicious" said Vano, raising his eyebrows.

Elvina looked back at her husband with a smile. She took her husband's hand, saying nothing. But inwardly confirmed that he did have time to think that Vano was out to talk to someone. It should be ordinary. But somehow he was curious. Usually if you hide like that, there must be something. Elvina's mind was bad when her husband did nothing.

"So don't believe it's the same as me? Is it love with me? How jealous?”

"Believe, I believe. I'm sorry yes. I didn't mean to. I'm messed up again, so mind is erratic, not just jealous curious,”

Vano smiled shakenly not wanting to discuss it anymore. He touched Elvina's back and invited her in.

The moment they returned to the room, breakfast for Arman came. Early who is preparing a change of clothes for her husband will immediately wake the husband to breakfast.

"Daddy's dressing is ready, Bun?"

"Udah, Honey,"

Elvina nodded, She did not see the toiletries for the father, maybe had not been taken out of the bundle from the small suitcase that had been delivered by the driver of her house here.

Elvina who issued a pouch containing equipment for cleaning commonly used by the father.

"Dad not shower first. But yes, yes,"

"Yes, I'm still not strong enough to go to the bathroom. Dad's head hurts,"

Arman had woken up from his sleep. He sat down, assisted by Vano. Dini was ready with a bowl of porridge which was her husband's breakfast menu.

"Have you had breakfast?" arman asked in his weak voice, looking at his wife and two children gently.

"Later, Dad. Easy, don't think about us. I'll look for breakfast downstairs" said Elvina, calming the father who had just asked.

"I am the one who came down. You are here just like Mother. Aaya's just for a second. Let Mama also fast breakfast not to be late to eat later sick too,"

Vano told his wife and two in-laws to go downstairs where the canteen was.

Vano should immediately look for breakfast for her mother-in-law especially. Do not let Dini also get sick because of late eating. Shena too, thinking too much about parents, the woman could have fallen.

***

Lisa and Beni arrive at the hospital. Their feet stepped quickly towards the reception desk to ask where the VVIP sakura room that Arman is now being treated was located.

After getting the information, they immediately rushed to the elevator to go up to the third floor.

"Awas, Ma. There's a patient,"

Beni pulls his wife's arm slowly so that a patient with a wheelchair and a companion who pushes can enter first.

After arriving on the third floor, Lisa and Benj came out of the glass box object that had brought them up.

"There's a special elevator for patients to even take a public elevator yes, Pa,"

Apparently Lisa had a little problem with the patient in the wheelchair.

"Yes probably don't know if there's a special patient elevator. Let's do it, Ma,"

"I'm sorry, Pa. He joined the people. If you take the patient elevator, it's more convenient,"

Beni and Lisa circulate the view as they arrive at the special corridor of the VVIP room.

He searched for 'sakura' among several VVIP rooms, finally being found.

"It turns out it's not hard to be loud,"

"Good intentions will be made easier,"

Lisa chuckled softly hearing her husband mutter like that. They then use a handsinitizer in front of the door of the room, then they enter.

"Assynolt,"

Elvina and her parents who were chatting lightly turned to the door that was opened and displayed the figure of Beni and his wife.

Elvina immediately rose to greet the two. He kissed Beni and Lisa's back hand.

"Sit, Bun, Dad,"

"Where is Vano? how come it's not here?" Apparently Beni realized there was no son in this room. Early in the morning he came out.

"My son-in-law bought breakfast" replied Arman in a soft voice.

Beni immediately rubbed Arman's shoulder. "Cheal, pity your wife and children,"

Arman smiled. He gets ammunition from Beni to be stronger to fight his pain.

"Not many thoughts. What the hell are you thinking? your son is married, it's not your responsibility anymore. Still a lot of thoughts," comfort Beni so that Arman laughs. The goal is to come here in addition to wanting to know the condition of Arman, also want to entertain and encourage Arman.

"Sit down first. What time is it here?"

"Breakfast first?" I asked them to eat here first. But Lisa shook her head.

“We came here after breakfast, Din,"

"Oh yeah, I brought you this breakfast, too,"

Lisa took out a place of arranged food, containing fried rice that He deliberately separated before it ran out unceremoniously.

"Wuih fried rice,"

Elvina approached when called Early to eat. He stared at the hungry fried rice that was still emitting steam from its place.

"It just so happens that Davina's cooking. I hope you like it,"

"Arman be patient. Can't be squeaky,"

Beni meredek Arman who seemed interested because he stared with interest at the fried rice container with fried onion with eggs and fried chicken as well as a complement.

"Know that I'm aiming,"

Beni chuckles at getting a speech not evading from Arman. He said, "Eh Vano bought breakfast?"

They forgot that Vano was going to buy breakfast. Lisa has brought it now.

"It's all eaten. No problem, pity Vano if told to return. Anyway, let's not let him finish buying his breakfast,"

"Yes, you'll feed Arman, you eat too, Din. Don't let you get sick. Pity El if you're both sick. El must be really worried. This was already anxious when he knew his father was sick until he forgot his saying goodbye

just like I'm leaving,"

Elvina cackled grimacingly. Lisa didn't see how she was last night. Like people chased by ghosts because they worry too much about their papa.

"Sorry yes, Ma, forgot the saying, I'm the same Mas went straight out

"Yes, Mama knows, honey. His name is sick parents, yes we want to meet quickly,"

"I don't know who to call but Elvina. I was rich last night, too. Arman was fine. I looked in his study and I kept seeing him fall asleep. When I wake up, I don't wake up. I immediately panicked, crying not because. You have never been rich before. After I got to the hospital, I didn't feel like I could deal with everything myself so I called Elvina,"

Lisa rubbed the shoulder of Dini who told her story with teary eyes. Maybe still remember how it was last night.

"I'm sorry I can't be next to you when you need to be,"

Lisa grabbed Dini's hand which immediately shook her head in disagreement with Lisa's words.

"Vano's presence is more than enough. He takes care of everything before Arman moves the room, he calms me down, assures me that everything is fine. Whatever he helps. I am grateful for you and Beni. Even though Arman and I don't have a son, Vano makes us feel like we have a son. Uh whereas there's the media and it's a pity for us,"

Lisa smile. That is what Vano is doing as a husband. Not only love and love their parents but also their parents.

Tok

Tok

Tok

The knock of the door followed by the creaking of the opened door made them all turn their heads.

Vano smiled broadly at them. In his hand he carried a white plastic bag.

"Burried ya, Mas?" Elvina guessed from the styrofoam her husband brought.

"Yes, I bought some porridge,"

"Mas, mommy and papa bring fried rice made by Davin,"

Vano's shoulder slumped. This made Elvina and her parents laugh.

"Mama didn't tell me to bring breakfast,"

"What's up, honey. Must have eaten all. Udah, you have breakfast with El," Beni told the child and his daughter-in-law to choose whether to eat fried rice or porridge as a breakfast menu. It's up to them, the most important thing is that the stomachs of the two of them who had accompanied since the early hours of this day were filled immediately.

"I want some fried rice" replied Areno.

"Jaudah I'm porridge. Let someone appreciate my efforts downstairs,"

If his wife chose to eat fried rice brought by the mother, then Andra chose to eat the porridge that He had bought earlier. Buying it takes effort too. He had to go downstairs where the canteen was, then wait for his turn to be made by the seller.

"I'll eat the porridge later, too, Mas,"

"Yes, you have to eat a lot,"

Agatha smilingly glanced at her husband who was now sitting on the sofa with his hands holding the porridge container.

"I ate first yes, everyone," said the man. Although he is hungry, but of course he will look left right. There were four parents there was no way he could have eaten alone.

"Yes, you and I had breakfast before we got here,"

Lisa prepared drinking water for her husband. "Thank you" said the man with his smile and a chewing mouth.

"Elvina ate too, son," The hermest told her daughter-in-law to eat because she saw Alice sitting next to Andra.

Agatha was more interested in stealing a glance towards her husband who was devouring porridge than filling his stomach.

"Later on, Pa. I'm not hungry yet,"

"Hey, eat! it's time for breakfast. When do you want to eat it?" Lisa stared at the princess with a spotlight warning Shelina not to leave her eating schedule. It's not been a day for Beni in the hospital. Don't let her child get sick too.

"Yes, Ma. Eat it later,"

"Dad not working?"

His father saw a watch on his wrist. "Oh yeah, it's eight and a half,"

Luckily his son asked. Otherwise, he was too engrossed in this room. Although Arman only responds to as much chatter as possible, but the atmosphere is warm. Beni's comfortable there.

Beni embraces a glimpse of Sakti's shoulder. "Job first yes. Get well soon, don't get knocked down again,"

"Yes, thank you for coming here. You too, take care of your health,"

Sometimes people like Beni often remind others not to be sick but themselves are careless due to the busyness that whack every day. Sakti is like that too. And in the end now have to feel the sunyinya hospital room where it must be forced to let go of all the busyness that has been binding.

"I'm also home. Get well soon, Arman. Once you're healthy, take care of your health, really,"

“Din, you also have to take care of your health. If you are sick, I do not have a bestie anymore you know, besides fearing that my daughter-in-law does not want to lose even follow the pain because her parents are sick. Kasian y'all if that's the case. Never think so, positive thinking,”

“Siap, Lis, thank you so much for coming,”

"Papa mama said yes?”

Vano and Elvina kissed the back of her second hand that was about to leave the hospital.

"Be careful, Pa. Thank you for looking at me,"

Beni smilingly rubbed the head of Elvina who was smiling sincerely to express her gratitude. What he did with Lisa was meant to be. The family is sick so they feel the sadness and then give the spirit to heal. Arman is in desperate need of moral support from the people closest to him, especially said the doctor who caused him like this is a lot of mind burden that should not need to be in his head.

Elvina cleared her throat after successfully finishing her porridge. He sipped the water and kept glancing at his wife who was staring at him.

“Eat, instead of even looking at me continue,"

"Not hungry yet, but later,"

"Aja now want to eat this," Dini stood up to take the fried rice brought by Elvina and Vano earlier. She finished feeding her husband.

"Dad, what do you need?"

"Nothing, I need to see you eat,"

Elvina sighed softly. To be honest he has not delayed his appetite. But he was asked to eat immediately. Especially now his parents who are sick also spoke up asking him to eat immediately.

"I took a shower, yeah,"

"I'm ready to put on his shirt,"

"No, I'll take it myself,"

Elvina was already going to eat no way Vano let her busy preparing the change of clothes her parents brought with a travel bag. There's Elvina's shirt and she's neatly tucked away.

Vano took out one of her non-formal clothing stels, underwear as well as toiletries.

Everything is complete, ah Vano must say thanks to his mother. He forgot to say it directly. Lisa is always reliable for things like this.

Are all women destined to be so? He remembered how Elvina spent their holidays in Jogja and Bali for one week. All preparations were done carefully by his wife. Nothing is left behind. Even the trivial things Elvina remembered. A kind of pouch to store socks, swimming goggles that Elvina thought her husband would wear swimming in Bali but in the end not wear because Vano does not swim. Elvina even swims in the inn.

"Eat a lot, Elvina. Your body doesn't change from before marriage to after marriage,"

"On purpose, Bun. Let's keep it nice it's my body,"

"Here you are. If you are married no longer need to think of a good body. I'm doing it, so be calm,"

Elvina chuckled and glanced at her bunda. Actually not because of that. He is basically lazy to eat.
