Tear Flower
Chapter 124
A month and two weeks passed, spring was coming to the capital of the country. The scent of cherry blossoms blew away every hope for the souls of the dreamers.
The sky looks bright this afternoon, a suitable time to spend the day with loved ones. Many pedestrians walking on the sidewalk enjoy the gusts of spring breeze.
Hand in hand, they spread smiles of happiness. Babbles after light babbles buzz each other.
Amid the bustle of people passing by, among them a woman walking on two crutches in each hand also traced the streets.
Many times people around talk about it. Without heeding them he continued to step foot while thickening his face.
Not long after that he arrived at his destination and stayed about ten meters away from the building in front of him.
"Isn't that Bella?"
"Eh, she's Bella, right?"
"Why does it look like that?"
"Yes, I heard he got karma from his actions."
"I didn't expect him to be such a cheating pianist."
"For a long time he used the fame of pianist Zidan to boost his own popularity. The game is very bad."
"I heard he's also been bad at Ayana's painter."
The conversation about it continued to buzz. Bella tried to hold back all her might not to retaliate against them.
He clasped his crutches firmly channeling resentment until not long ago the people who talked about it just left.
Alone, quiet, and silent, Bella has felt the consequences of the actions that have been done.
His dark bead captured the silhouette of someone behind the magnolia gallery. The hijab-wearing woman was laughing merrily with the people who came to visit there.
Unknowingly the tears dripped unbearably, Bella wiped them rough and took a deep breath and exhaled them slowly.
Long he stayed there watching the painter was spreading kindness to the visitors. Until not long after that Bella saw them come out and hurried away from there.
However, he had just turned around accidentally he hit someone to make a noise. The woman he was holding stopped her steps and gave a sharp look.
"If you look around! Do you have no eyes? Basic people do not know the lucky," said the woman sarcasm invite attention people.
Bella simply nodded her head many times not returning a word. The brief quarrel attracted other road users who also gave dislike gazes.
Ayana who drove her customers to the exit accidentally looked ahead to where the commotion had occurred. The two sweets narrowed to look at a long-haired cream-coated woman on her back.
As if about that figure, Ayana stepped across the street until she arrived near the cafe. He saw the woman put her foot in a tool.
"Bella," he just called.
The owner of the name stopped instantly, his heart racing to recognize the voice. He was frozen, not moving a bit.
Ayana walks in front of him and is immediately shocked if this woman is really Bella, her former honey and classmate.
"Bella's? Oh my God, can you get out of the hospital? Em, did you come here to see me? Why don't you just come to the gallery, you-"
"I'm sorry, Ayana. I'm really sorry." Bella squabbles in front of Ayana who makes the pedestrians look at them.
Ayana who is not comfortable being the center of attention also helps Bella not to do that.
Bella persists until Ayana asks the help of the cafe waiter to help her go to the gallery.
Seruni serves two glasses of green tea the owner's favorite and sweet food. Bella's attention was drawn to the drink, looking at her.
"From the beginning .. You love green tea. Wh why? Why Ayana?"
"Because I like the bitter taste," Ayana replied just like that then took a brief sip of her drink.
Bella raised her head, looking in her eyes I scanned the beautiful face of the interlocutor who was developing a gentle smile.
"Why? Why Ayana?" He again asked the same question.
Ayana gasped not understanding. "I told you earlier, right, if-"
"Not that," cut Bella fast.
The two firm eyebrows of the painter were tightly intertwined. He really did not understand what Bella was trying to say.
His lips curl up tightly waiting faithfully for what the friend is to say again.
"Why do you want to help me who has obviously hurt you so many times? I'm ashamed .. I'm ashamed of Ayana," Bella said later.
"Eh? What are you talking about?" ayanna still did not understand.
"Don't pretend you don't know, you've asked Danieal to help cure me, right?"
His memory also rotated to a month two weeks back. At that time Bella last met Ayana at the hospital.
After Ayana, Bella was devastated. He also realized that their relationship in the school days was arguably very good.
On the one hand Bella already considers Ayana like her own sister. Everywhere they are always together to share the joys and sorrows of the two.
Three days later, while Bella was trying to enjoy breakfast, the door was opened.
He saw a man in a white coat poking in, looking at him fixedly. Bella refocuses on food trying to ignore the doctor.
"Honestly, if it wasn't for my sister . I wouldn't want to be a doctor who takes care of patients like you. It's not that I'm not professional, it's just-"
"I understand, please if indeed you do not want to be a doctor who handles-"
"For that I will treat you until it gets better. For healing only God can give."
They cut each other off, not wanting to lose to each other.
"After the accident, Ayana called me to be your personal doctor. Upon arrival at the hospital, Ayana pleads by crying to me to help treat you. He did it again yesterday when he found out I was trying to divert you to another doctor."
"Ayana begged so much that I could treat you, Bella. I ... have heard from Ayana how your relationship in the past. I'm sorry for what happened to make your friendship this way."
"Ayana really thinks of you like her own family. For that I will try as much as possible to be the best doctor for you, for the sake of Ayana," said Danieal made Bella stunned.
...***...
"Since then your brother has continued to provide the best treatment for me. He also often gave me advice that made me realize .. so many mistakes I've made to you, Ayana."
"I'm ashamed .. really embarrassed. Why do you still want to help me? Even until my condition improved as it is now thanks to your help that has encouraged Danieal mas. I'm really sorry, "turm Bella lowered her head in hiding the tears.
Ayana commented on the gentle smile, moved by the change Bella had experienced. He squeezed both hands on his lap while scanning his interlocutor closely.
Memory after memory of the events that the woman had done to him continued to wander. Tears seeped out from his petals and flowed just like that. Ayana continued to stare fixedly at Bella who was sobbing in tears.
