Hearing that woman keep saying the same thing since earlier, Naila felt embarrassed. even though she had told Anna to stop thanking her, but she just kept on doing it.
Entering the afternoon, right after lunch took place, Anna did not immediately return to the room, the woman instead invited Dave and Naila to relax a little in the gazebo beside the house, the place where Dave and the girl had played robots until night.
"Are you sure it's okay to go out? I'm worried..."
"I'm fine now Naila, there's no need to worry about me like that," said Anna immediately cutting the girl's sentence.
"O-okay. Tell me if you start to feel unwell," Naila replied.
Just as Naila sat in the gazebo, her cell phone rang. Immediately the girl reached into her pants pocket and took out a flat-shaped object from it. Her smile widened when she saw Leo's name on the screen.
Without waiting long, Naila immediately picked it up.
"Hello."
"Hello, Miss." came the voice of a middle-aged man from the other side.
Naila's brow reflex wrinkled, looking back at her phone screen to make sure that it was really Leo who was calling her right now and not someone else.
"Hello, who is this? Where is the owner?" asked Naila directly, and it made Anna who was busy accompanying Dave playing suddenly turn to the girl with a questioning look.
"Sorry Miss, are you the next of kin to the owner of this phone?" asked the man from the other side.
"So what? Did something happen?" instead of answering, Naila asked back.
"The owner of this cell phone is now in the hospital, Miss. He had an accident, his condition is very critical and must be operated on immediately, but before that we need permission from his family, you should go to hospital X now," said the man on the other side of the phone.
As if at a loss for words, Naila was speechless, her hands shaking, "W-well, thank you for the information, sir," Naila replied before the connection was cut off, even the girl's voice could be heard shaking.
"What's wrong, Naila? Something happened?" asked Anna.
"Leo was in an accident, Anna. His condition is critical and requires surgery. I have to go to the hospital immediately," answered Naila, standing up quickly from her position.
Anna who heard that panicked, "I'm following you to the hospital."
"No. You stay here, Anna. Your condition is still unstable."
"I don't want to until you meet Leo's family, Anna. I'm afraid something unexpected will happen to you."
"You better stay here with Dave, don't go anywhere and wait for me to come back okay?" she added again.
"But, what if you meet Mrs. Seira again?" asked Anna a little worried.
"This time please listen to me Anna, okay? Don't worry about me. I know what I'm going to do, also I can't delay any more time, Leo must be in surgery immediately," Naila said immediately.
"Alright, then hurry up, be careful, and don't forget to let me know," Anna finally complied.
"Of course, I'll tell you when I get to the hospital."
"OK."
"Then I'll say goodbye," Naila said and started to leave from there, away from the gazebo towards the gate.
Anna who saw Naila's departure could only sigh harshly. For some reason, the feeling of being separated from that girl made her a little unwilling, even though Naila was only gone for a while. Maybe because all this time she had always been with her and was around her, so she had that feeling.
"Mom, where is aunty going?" Dave asked approaching Anna, one hand holding a red and blue toy robot.
"Auntie has important business, honey," Anna replied, caressing the boy's head.
"Will she come back later?" Dave asked again with his innocent look.
"Honey. Auntie will be back, she just went to see Uncle Leo."
"Uncle Leo?"
"Yes, Dear," said Anna.
Right now, Anna didn't care about anything but her son. She will not be angry with Devan, nor will she try to forget everything she has gone through so far.
Anna will only surrender, the woman chose to leave everything to time. Let time carry the fate and destiny of her life. She is too afraid to expect good things in her life in the future, but that does not mean she will feel fine if bad things happen to her.
All this time she had been too busy avoiding, expecting, and only thinking about herself, now it was different. Anna's thoughts and feelings right now were very different from usual.
She didn't even care about herself anymore. It's like saying, let what will happen, happen. She doesn't care about anything anymore. It was as if Anna no longer had the zest for life. If Dave wasn't around, then maybe, that woman had disappeared from this world. Choosing to end her suffering by taking her own life.
While here it was different, Naila who had just arrived at the hospital by taxi was now walking quickly into the big building, down the corridor, and straight to the administration room.
After arriving there, Naila immediately revealed the identity of Leo, a man who had just been in a car accident.
As if they had understood, the nurse there immediately asked Naila to sign the approval for the operation.
"You have to pay the administrative fees first, Miss," said the nurse on duty.
"What? Isn't it possible if I pay it off after the operation is over?"
"No Miss, at least you have to pay half the administrative fee, then Mr. Leo can be operated on."
"But I don't have a penny right now," Naila muttered, her face turning pale when she saw the amount of money on the paper in front of her right now. A murmur only she could hear.
"Ah yes, do you know the man who called me earlier?" asked Naila who suddenly remembered.
"Of course Miss, he is one of the doctors in this hospital," replied the nurse.
"Then where's Leo's stuff?" Naila asked, maybe she could call one of his family of the contacts on the guy's cell phone, ask to come and pay the administration fee.
