ICU Room Bellevue Hospital
Alea just looked at Chris through his green eyes and the girl tried not to cry because it would make Chris drop mood.
"You... Still sick isn't the surgery?" asked Alea who was confused to say what.
"Sickness.little. But long gone for seeing you." Chris smiled.
Joey rolled his eyes lazily. Oh my goodness, youth... So remember the days of Gina.
"Alea..."
"Yes?"
"I'm sorry you want a birthday next Sunday but I'm sprawled like this. I have prepared a gift..." Chris looked at the girl.
Alea shook her head. "No papa. The important thing is that you stay alive is already invaluable."
"You're Lea's birthday next week?" ask Joey. "Don't forget!"
"Iiissshhh Abang mah birthday mbak Gina also likes to forget. If Gina wasn't angry, you wouldn't remember that?" cebik Alea who knows Georgina likes to nag in girl cousin chat group every Joey forgets her birthday, Blaze and wedding anniversary.
"Lha Abang alone sometimes forget Abang's birthday" elak Joey.
"Man, but not Chris me" said Alea convinced.
"Yes, just keep your Rohi" Joey cheered.
"Doctor Bianchi.." call Chris.
"Jean Chris?"
"Thank you for saving my life."
Joey smiled through his eyes. "You knew? For the first time I operated on someone because if I couldn't save you, I don't know how my brother could deal with it all. And besides, it's your life spirit that keeps you coming back from critical times."
"I just felt like I saw Alea and Umi crying so I tried to get up even though it was hard. And I'm grateful to be able to get through it..." Chris looked at Alea.
"Because your heart was partially damaged by bullets, you have to be careful Chris. Indeed, the heart can grow back but it needs a process and in my opinion, it, it's good that you take a leave of absence from the NYPD for about three months at least to fix your metabolism until your heart grows perfectly even though in two weeks it has grown."
The uniqueness of the liver or other liver is its ability to grow again or regenerate. So, the liver can grow when there is a part of the organ that is damaged. Source http://bobo.grid.id
"I'm sure Oom Ezra can persuade the NYPD's high commissioner to give you an extraordinary leave of absence." Joey looked at Chris seriously.
"I'm dependent on the central decision how.." said Chris.
"Yuk Leah. Don't take too long, let Chris rest first don't make him too tired." Joey invites Alea out of the ICU room.
"I'll go first Chris." Alea clasped Chris' hands gently.
"Lot of Lea breaks. Your eyes are sunken and panda-like." Chris teased.
Alea laughed a little. "Yes. Get well soon."
"Of course my Humaira..."

Chris was in the ICU a week and now his condition has begun to improve until he can be transferred to the hospital room. Today Alea does not wait for Chris but Aminah.
Chris' mother asked Alea to return to activities as usual because she knew that the work of the girl was abandoned because Aminah had caught Alea asleep while holding her iPad full of design.
Although Alea protested, Aminah's soft voice made Alea comply. And every afternoon after the office Alea always stopped by the hospital until Joey asked his sister to stay at his penthouse close to the hospital so as not to go too far when going home to the hospital Hampton.
This afternoon as usual, Aminah fed Chris and the man's face looked curious to see his mother like she was about to tell him something but not so.
"Permy... What's up?" ask Chris.
"Mom..." Aminah took a long breath. "Umi is confused by Alea's family."
"Why jungles? Alea's family doesn't accept Umi?" chris asked confused because several times he saw Georgina, Joey's wife came to visit and chatted with Aminah. Keia himself went to the hospital twice and brought food for Aminah and the two had a warm conversation.
"But..."
"Umi did ask Keia, Joey's doctor and Georgina's doctor not to tell you."
"What is Umi's story?" Chris stared intensely at his mother.
"Do you know that the shooter has been caught?"
Chris shook his head. "Nobody told me so I don't know."
"The culprit was found out and Ezra beat him up..."
Chris gawking. "Mr Hamilton hit the man who shot me? But how?"
Umi nodded. "It turns out Ezra found out with the help of his family, Bryan Smith, and found out that the culprit was a NYU student. And the rector of NYU is Ezra's cousin so. The perpetrator got beaten up by Ezra in his room."
Chris glared in disbelief. "What's Umi?"
"Yes and Ezra ended up being held in a holding cell last night for molestation..."
Chris placed his painless hand on his forehead. His head felt dizzy hearing all the information he was given.
"But it's going to be a Umi scandal." complained Chris who felt bad about Alea's father.
"The Umi is confused... Ezra looked relaxed and Keia said it was a normal thing ... Oh my Chris ... Umi knew they were Sultan but really didn't care about the scandal that made their name tainted..."
Chris turned to Aminah. "Umi, their family is indeed the Sultan's family but I've met Alea's other cousins and they're like there's no burden if there's a scandal."
"Umi has also met with a few moments they swipe at you and Umi knows they all have their titles, names and fame but they are humble. Precisely because they were kind and humble, Chris, umi was not willing to hear Alea's father was imprisoned and prosecuted."
"Did Mr Hamilton end up in Umi's prison?"
"No, he said it was settled with bail."
Chris nodded.
***
That night Ezra and Keia came to see Chris. Aminah and Keia then get out of the hospital room leaving Ezra together with Chris.
"How are you doing?" ask Ezra.
"Thank God be better, sir."
"You know Chris, the night you were shot, I wanted to beat you up for making my daughter sad. And I want to slam you even more because you made my daughter almost lose the man who made her happy. Good thing you're still given your life, if you die, I'll call the Voodoo shaman!" ezra origin.
"Sir, if I'm resurrected through Voodoo instead of me being a zombie?" grin Chris.
"Oh... Horror huh?" kekeh Ezra's.
"Mr Hamilton, I'm very grateful to have defended me and arrested the shooter."
Ezra. "Who's defending you?"
Chris gawking. "Eh?"
"I hit that b@ngs@t because it made Alea cry! Since you're sprawled, I'll just take it out on him!" answer Ezra lightly.
Athaghfirullah! Really your father Alea...
