Part Twenty Two

Now we're all in Bintang Mulia Hospital where my stepfather was treated due to an accident

"Sus, my husband is Arthur, where is my husband being treated?" asked my papa

"Sorry sir, let me check for a moment" said the nurse while checking patient data on the computer

"Your husband has been transferred to the treatment room in Mekar Wangi's room," said the nurse

"But before that, you have to go to the administration to pay off the cost of care," said the nurse again

"OK, we'll be there, thank you" my papa said to the nurse all go to the administration.

When they got there they shared the work.

My papa and I gave my stepfather's medical papers and paid for his treatment as a condition for my stepfather's medical equipment to the administration, while the mother and her two children looked for the Mekar Wangi room where my stepfather was being treated.

After my papa and I finished completing the files and paying for my stepfather's care, my papa and I immediately headed to the Mekar Wangi room where my stepfather was being treated.

When we got there my father and I entered the room, it seemed that the mother was talking to her children but the mother did not have time to continue what she wanted to say to the brother because my father and I were already in the room

"Arthur, how are you, sir?" my father asked

"Uncle Arthur is still under the influence of sleeping pills" said the older brother

"Oh that's right" my papa got it

"Sorry Mr. Arlan, son Adit, me and the kids want to say goodbye, because the kids are going to school tomorrow," said the mother.

"Oh I'm sorry for bothering Mrs. Shintya and the kids" my papa hesitated

"ah it's okay after all we are 'family'" mother emphasized the word family

"Then I'll excuse myself first" said the mother goodbye

"Bella, Ade, what did you say to Uncle Arlan and Adit?" Mother ordered

"Oh, Adit. Bella says goodbye first, okay?" the older sister excused herself

"Oh, uncle Arlan, brother Adit. Ade go home first," the younger brother waved his hand

then the mother and her children left the hospital and went home to them.

The next day I was not allowed to go to school because I had to take care of my stepfather who was hospitalized, I contacted the sister and my friends so that they asked permission from my homeroom teacher and the picket teacher.

The sister went to the administration room and met the picket teacher while my friend went to the teacher's room and met my homeroom teacher.

They said that I could not attend because I was taking care of my stepfather who had an accident and that my stepfather is currently being treated at Bintang Mulia Hospital.
