Love Stay Here
The Hospital as Witness

"How, Ndhuk are you ready for marriage today?" ask me more and more.

"But, the Mas Bima family has not been informed. Can't we get married without telling them?" ask Sekar slowly.

"Mama Papa is already on his way here" said Bima.

"Penghulu from the village is also already on the way with Pakde Suraji and Pak Ngadiman our neighbors. Those who will marry you and at the same time become a witness," said the mother made Sekar stunned.

"How can it be so fast? When did Mom and Mas Bima tell them?" He was very surprised by what he had just heard.

"So when you came out" replied the mother.

"Huh, out to the park just now?" mother nodded.

"When we were in the park. Now maybe they are already in the plane," Bima replied making Sekar distrust. They really want her to get married today.

"But I promise, yes after Sekar marah I went straight into the operating room?" tanya Sekar ensures the promise of the father.

"Yes, promise. But before that, I told you to be a dutiful wife for your husband. Wherever he goes, what he wants to do, serve him wholeheartedly and do not leave without his permission. As long as it's good never oppose it. Because after marriage your paradise has been in his ridhonya. You got it, kid?" advice the father with breath gasping because of the tightness he felt.

"The father of the operation is now, is he?" Sekar again persuaded his father as his condition worsened.

"don't want. I'm not sure you'll stay married if you have surgery now. You'll wait until you're done." you stick with your will and refuse surgery before the daughter is actually married.

"Any promise, Mr. Sekar will remain married once you realize after the operation. Mr. Operations now yes, sir" persuaded Sekar again. But again, my father refused it.

Finally Sekar just follow the wishes of his stubborn father. He paced back and forth restlessly in the father's treatment room making those who saw him feel dizzy.

"You better shut up or just go out if you don't shut up. Your movements make the father more dizzy," ketus mother makes Sekar realize his nervousness.

Two hours later the Bima family came. Doni, Intan and Satya enter Sekar's father's hospital room. Sekar welcomes and hugs Intan, the woman he has considered his mother during his time in Jakarta. Bima's parents introduced themselves and talked about their children.

An hour later Pakdhe Suraji and Pak Ngadiman and the ruler came to complete the presence of all needed.

It turned out that Intan brought the bridal attire for Bima and Sekar. Sekar did not expect if it turned out that Intan had prepared the wedding dress for a long time. Sekar felt overwhelmed by what his future mother-in-law did.

Sekar and Bima alternately change clothes in the bathroom. Sekar was simple by his sister Kirana after he came out of the bathroom earlier.

Everything is ready. Both prospective brides face the penghulu to immediately do the impromptu marriage contract. As a witness there was Mr. Ngadiman. While from the side of Bima there is Doni. For the guardians done directly by the father.

"I accepted the marriage and marriage of Dewi Sekar Arum bint Mahmud with a dowry of a set of prayer tools and twenty-four carat gold weighing twenty grams paid in cash," bima said while doing a commitment to greet the father.

"Lawful testimony?" ask penghulu.

"Well," said everyone present.

The event continued a prayer led by the ruler and was observed by all. Do not forget they also pray for the father ahead of his operation. During the wedding ceremony, all the women present shed tears. Sad and happy to be one.

One by one Sekar and Bima greeted his parents and also his parents-in-law. They gave their advice to both.

Satya was busy photographing her brother's wedding. He occasionally steals a glance at Kirana, a young girl who repeatedly checks on her father's condition.

The doctor who will perform the operation on the father will be a witness to their marriage. There is no event after the marriage contract because you must immediately enter the operating room.

"Since the event is over, we will immediately bring the patient to perform surgery immediately. The patient's condition has been declining can not continue to be delayed," said a doctor who participated as a witness to their marriage.

*****. *****

Everyone waited anxiously and expectantly in front of the operating room. All pray for the success of the operation and also the healing of Mahmud Sekar's father.

The operation lasted for up to 3 hours. Satya was looking for a girl who had succeeded in disturbing his heart. But he never saw it. "Where is the girl, isn't she Sekar's sister?" satya said in her heart.

Bima who saw Sekar so restless joined the restless. His wife was sitting next to his mother. He sat there and clasped Sekar's hand trying to strengthen.

"Darling, you can. Father of strong man. You must be sure and continue your prayers," said Bima.

He rested his wife's head on her shoulder with his right hand on her shoulder. Sekar, who had been restless, felt a little calm with the gentle touch of her husband. He felt his heart was better than before. Then he continued to pray with his eyes closed.

3 Hours have passed. The doctor came out of the operating room with a sweaty face. The doctor approached everything there.

"How is my father doing, has his operation been successful?" ask Sekar who has first approached the doctor.

"Thank God, thanks to the prayers of all, the operation went smoothly. Now it's just waiting for the patient to wake up. After a few hours from now will be examined to find out whether there are complications post-surgery. Get here understand, yes. Then excuse me" said the doctor and left the patient's family.

"Alhamdulillah" said their gratitude simultaneously.

"Because the operation went well and was over, my wife and I went home. After this we will pick up our daughter to London to return to Indonesia because her studies are over. And for Satya we stayed because she would help to take care of her brother's wedding papers" Doni said after the doctor left in their presence.

"Mutia's coming home, sir?" ask Sekar.

"Yes. Now you're our daughter-in-law so from now on call me papa and mama for my wife."

"Yes, Pa."

"Take care of yourself if there's anything call us right away. We excuse you that it's getting late at night afraid of missing the plane because tomorrow it will fly in the morning" Doni said, then left them.

Pakdhe Suraji, Pak Ngadiman as well as the penghulu stay at the hospital because there will be no vehicles to the village at night.

Sekar did not expect that this hospital would be a witness to his marriage with Bima.
