Chapter 8: Doctor Zelena
(At Sidoluhur Regional Hospital)
"No.. no.. Sir!!! I don't want to be sent to Derisa Hospital, please sir, please..!!!".
A woman who is also a doctor, was seen whining to her boss.
"I understand how you feel, Doc.. But Derisa Hospital really needs a lot of additional Obstetrician and Gynecologist Specialists. The area has a very high percentage of pregnancies and births, Doc. Please understand my decision and don't burden me. Because this is not my decision alone. All staff and doctors agree that you will be placed there", her boss explained.
"But why me, Sir, not Doctor Ghani or Doctor Sarah who has more experience than me?!", replied the female doctor who still wanted to continue to be given an explanation that satisfied her.
"Consider this as an additional experience for you, Doctor. Trust me, this is only temporary", her boss said again.
"But...", before the female doctor said anything else, the boss immediately said.
"This is a decision! Please. Please sign this transfer letter immediately!", urged the superior who had given the transfer letter and had also provided a pen next to it to sign it immediately.
With uncertain feelings, the female doctor finally signed the transfer letter.
She is Doctor Zelena Aisha Azwar, Obstetrician and Gynecologist, 28 years old. A beautiful young doctor who just finished her specialist education a few months ago.
Who doesn't know Doctor Zelena at Sidoluhur Hospital? Most of her patients know Doctor Zelena because of her beauty.
Now, Doctor Zelena will be transferred soon to a place far from where she lives.
Derisa Hospital is indeed one of the largest hospitals in the city, but when compared to Sidoluhur Regional Hospital, Derisa Hospital is nothing.
Derisa Hospital that Doctor Zelena knows so far is only the shape and uniqueness of the hospital that is different from other hospitals.
Apart from the uniqueness that makes it a plus, the rest is normal like most other hospitals.
'I have to return to Sidoluhur Hospital as soon as possible. I will prove to all the doctors and staff that I am worthy of working at Sidoluhur Hospital', Doctor Zelena said in her heart.
'But, at least I can get away from him for a while, that bastard Ghufron. There are advantages too', Doctor Zelena added and finally accepted the transfer decision.
Doctor Zelena is indeed engaged to a man named Ghufron Ali. Both are of Arab blood. Doctor Zelena's father and mother are very happy with Ghufron.
Moreover, Ghufron's father, Nayef Ali, is a friend of Doctor Zelena's father. Ghufron Ali who saw Doctor Zelena's beauty was even more interested and wanted to marry Doctor Zelena immediately.
Doctor Zelena's parents, Akbar Azwar, 61 years old, and Farida Hasyim, 54 years old, who knew that Doctor Zelena would be transferred to Derisa Hospital, felt very disappointed.
They felt bad about telling Ghufron and his family. But Doctor Zelena advised her parents not to tell this news to Ghufron Ali's family.
Let Ghufron Ali's family know after Doctor Zelena works there, Doctor Zelena thought. Finally, Doctor Zelena's parents agreed.
Currently, Doctor Zelena is ready to leave for Derisa Hospital. Doctor Zelena is planned to be driven by the driver of Mr. Akbar, Doctor Zelena's father, whose name is Mr. Mazmur, 47 years old.
Throughout the journey, Doctor Zelena really poured out her heart about everything.
Doctor Zelena did not feel that Mr. Mazmur was another person, she considered him her own family.
The wise Mr. Mazmur only listened to and occasionally gave advice.
"Oh, so that's how it is, Miss Zelena. You seem forced to go to Derisa Hospital, huh?", said Mr. Mazmur, nodding.
"Yes, Uncle, who wouldn't be annoyed?!", replied Doctor Zelena.
"Be patient, Miss. This is a test. By the way then, what will happen to Mr. Ghufron? You are engaged and will be married soon, right?", asked Mr. Mazmur again.
"That's also what weighs on my heart and mind, Uncle. I actually don't really love Ghufron," answered Doctor Zelena who was indeed having a headache with all of this.
"Hey, miss, if you don't love him, why did you accept his proposal?", asked Mr. Mazmur again to Doctor Zelena.
"The ones who accepted it were my father and mother, not me. I also didn't know there would be a proposal like that. When I got home from work, the house was suddenly crowded. I was shocked, I thought there was a disaster or something. Uh.. it turned out I wanted to be matched with someone. I wanted to refuse. But my parents kept staring at me. I was really annoyed, Uncle," answered Doctor Zelena, feeling frustrated.
"Wow, the problem is really tough and complicated. In fact, my parents and Aunt Ina's parents (Mr. Mazmur's wife), Alhamdulillah, both allowed them to marry the partner they liked," explained Mr. Mazmur, whose eyes were a little teary as he remembered his parents.
"That's a sign that both of your parents are more modern than my parents, right?", Doctor Zelena added, feeling a little jealous of Mr. Mazmur.
They both ended up laughing because they were comparing their respective parents. And the journey continues.
==================
(Zara is currently sending a message to Hameed)
'"Huh..?!! Is that really a photo of Uncle Zein with you?!' Zara asked after seeing Hameed's WhatsApp status and immediately sending him a message.
'Who else, I'm at Zein's father's house right now, right?', Hameed replied to Zara's message.
'Why doesn't he look old? I thought he was your younger brother. Could it be that you've been lying that Uncle Zein is 43 years old?!', Zara replied in annoyance and sent another message to Hameed.
'Uh... Zein is indeed 43 years old. I've said before that Zein doesn't look that old', replied Hameed who didn't want to be blamed.
'"Why does Uncle Zein look like a young man? If that's really Uncle Zein, why do you look older than him, lol', replied Zara again while sending a laughing emoticon.
'Woah, woah, stop talking, that's it for today', replied Hameed then ended his message.
"We'll see later, I'm sure you really regret it now.. Ha.. Ha.. Ha.. Ha.." Hameed muttered, very satisfied.

(Back to Doctor Zelena)
After traveling for approximately 5 hours, Doctor Zelena finally arrived at Derisa Hospital.
Doctor Zelena decided to stay at the hotel first. Meanwhile, Mr. Mazmur, who had an acquaintance in the area, immediately contacted his acquaintance and asked for permission to stay at his acquaintance's house. His acquaintance also allowed him.
(Long story short the next day)
The next day, Derisa Hospital was shocked by the arrival of a new doctor named Doctor Zelena.
All employees, especially male employees, were shocked, including male staff and also Mr. Hendri, Head of HR at Derisa Hospital. Apart from her beauty, Doctor Zelena also has a tall body.
She is 183 cm tall. Really Tall above average for a woman's height. Doctor Zein had also heard the news, but he felt it was normal.
Doctor Zein preferred to hang out with the Cleaning Service Officer while smoking and drinking coffee. He didn't care what Doctor Zelena would like.
"Doc, aren't you coming to greet her?", asked one of the cleaning service officers speaking to Doctor Zein.
"Greet who?", replied Doctor Zein to him.
"She's, Doc.. The new doctor. I had a chance to see her earlier. She's so beautiful...", explained him while imagining if he had a girlfriend that was beautiful.
"Maybe... She'll probably cause trouble for me", replied Doctor Zein who seemed to already know what reaction Doctor Zelena would show when she first saw Doctor Zein.
"What do you mean, doc?", asked the cleaning service officer feeling a little curious.
"Um.. We'll see, okay.. Ha.. Ha.. Ha.. Ha... Come on, let's have some more coffee and smoke. Just relax. The upperclassmen (meaning the hospital staff and staff) are focused on welcoming that doctor, right? There's no supervision at the moment. It's better if we just stay happy here," Doctor Zein answered, making an excuse.
"Yes, bosssss...!!", said the cleaning service officers in uniform. They continued chatting, having coffee and cigarettes. Doctor Zein, who saw them smiling, also smiled.
'Hmm... Doctor Zelena, right? I want to see what your reaction will be', Doctor Zein said in his heart.
'Since Mr. Rudi retired (Head of HR before Mr. Hendri), I have never seen their laughter like I see now'.
'True laughter. Laughter that was truly unforced. I miss those times, when there was no distance between all the employees'.
'I will restore Derisa Hospital to the way it was before', said Doctor Zein in his heart, who had made a very strong determination.
