Leo immediately drove his car back after dropping off and saying goodbye to his wife Lisa.Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.

Arriving at David’s house, Leo pressed the doorbell impatiently. From inside the house, the aunt immediately walked towards the door to open it.

“Den Leo, Ms. Ayu fainted in her room,” said Aunt after opening the door and what she saw was her sister’s sister.

“Where’s the room bi?” ask Leo

“Come with me Den” said aunt Isa then Leo followed aunt from behind to Ayunda’s room.

Arriving at the room, Leo immediately carried his sister bridal style.

“I took Ayu to the hospital first, Bi,” said Leo as he walked.

“Auntie come with me” asked Bi Isah to which Leo nodded.

Then they walked together into Leo’s car. leo put Ayunda in the back seat with Bi Isah on her lap.

After that, Leo immediately drove his car at a moderate speed. Because after all Leo is still concerned with safety.

Arriving at the hospital, Leo again carried his sister before a nurse brought a stretcher for the patient.

Ayunda was taken to the emergency room followed by Leo and bi Isah but only reached the door.

after waiting for a while, finally the doctor who examined Ayunda came out and immediately Leo asked the doctor about his sister.

“How is my sister doc?” Leo asked the Doctor.

“The patient is just tired, sir, I have infused it and when I wake up, I will immediately eat and take the medicine I have prescribed, sir,” said the doctor.

“Does it need to be treated doc?” Leo asked again.

“Just waiting for the IV fluids to run out, sir,” replied the doctor.

“Okay doc, thank you” Leo said.

“It’s the same sir, then I’ll excuse myself. Come on,” said the doctor, accompanied by a smile and Leo and aunt nodded.

after the doctor left, Leo and aunt went inside to see Ayunda who was still unconscious with an IV needle stuck in her hand.

“Mom, I’ll buy some food first. Please take care of Ayunda,” said Leo to his aunt.

“I’ll just Den buy food” aunt volunteered.

“No, just let me. Auntie take care of Ayunda, okay?” Leo laughed.

“Okay Den” replied Aunt obediently.

Not long ago Leo returned from buying food, Ayunda blinked her eyes.

“Den,, Ms. Ayu is aware,” said Aunt, telling Leo.

Leo immediately approached his sister.

“Ay, you’re awakeYou eat first, okay?” Leo said then helped Ayunda to sit down. Ayunda obeyed because she was also hungry.

After Ayunda finished her meal which was fed by Leo, Aunt tried to talk to Ayunda and Leo.

“Mrs Ayu, Mr. Leo, since Ms. Ayunda has woken up, I have to go home first, I’m afraid Mrs. will look for me. If Ms. Ayu needs something, I will call her aunt,” said Aunt.

“Yes, ma’am, thank you,” Ayunda said

“Ah, yes, aunt, I ordered a taxi, sorry I can’t take you,” said Leo, who was nodded by aunt.

“Yes, den, it’s okay. Thank you,” said Aunt then after saying goodbye, aunt immediately left the room.

Now only Leo and Ayunda are left. after the departure of aunt, Ayunda silent daydream. Her mind went back to her husband David. Where now the one who accompanies her when she is sick is her brother who already has a family of her own, not her husband whom she saw when she opened her eyes for the first time from fainting.

“You need something?” Leo asked, interrupting Ayunda’s daydream.

“No” Ayu answered shortly

“Okay, brother, I’ll tell Lisa first,” said Leo while rubbing Ayunda’s head gently and then leaving Ayunda alone.

Ayunda thought back to her husband who didn’t even care about her.

“Haah” Ayunda took a deep breath.

“I want to go, but where?,, I don’t want to burden my sister if I ask her for help” Ayunda muttered.

Ayunda was determined after being discharged from the hospital she would temporarily go away from David to prove whether David still loved her or not, whether David would worry about her or not.

now Ayunda is on her way back home with her sister, who from beside her always accompanies her.

“Don’t you want to stay at your sister’s house?” bargain Leo

“No,” said Ayunda, who was still short.

“Heemmm okay,,, but if you need help brother, brother will always be there for you.

“Yes” Ayunda replied again which made Leo sigh because his younger brother had only spoken as needed.

There’s really no cheerful expression on Ayunda’s face that Ayunda usually shows. no smile graced his lips, only short words that came out of his mouth.

After a few minutes, Leo and Ayunda finally arrived at David’s residence.

“I’ll just get off here, brother, just go home, poor Leona, who just got home from the hospital, must be looking for brother,” said Ayu when she arrived in front of David’s residential gate.

“Are you strong enough to walk from here to the main door?” Leo asked to confirm.

“Yes,” replied Ayunda.

“Greetings to Lisa and Leona,” Ayunda said when she got out of her sister’s car.

“Yes, brother go first” said Leo.

“Hmm, thank you,” said Ayunda who was nodded by Leo.

Then Leo drove back his car after dropping Ayunda right in front of David’s gate.

after Leo’s departure, Ayunda went inside after pressing the gate bell and was opened by the security guard.

***

Now Ayunda is in her room, Ayunda is preparing to leave tonight. While no one was at home, where did the aunt go, there was only a security guard in front.

Ayunda only wears a small carrying bag to carry a few clothes. Because Ayunda thought it would be easy she would buy it again.

Ayunda came out of her room after finishing preparing to go to the front. Ayu has ordered a taxi online after previously, Ayunda also sent a message to her husband to say goodbye.

“[Dear, I will give me time]” was the message Ayunda sent to David.
