The Winter Man
#39
Winter returned to the mansion with Yura's hand tightly held. Yura's smile spread perfectly staring at the man beside her.
They climb the stairs and enter the room, Yura opens the jacket and keeps it on the sofa, then she climbs onto the bed, Yura is about to pull the blanket but Winter reminds her of the medicine.
"There must be some medicine you need to take, right?"
Yura turned her head then nodded slowly.
"Where?" ask Winter.
"In my bag," Yura said with a slight frown as she could not take medicine.
It should have been during the nausea Yura relapsed because of the chemotherapy effect the girl took the prescribed medicine Doctor Leon, but because no one paid attention to Yura carelessly did not take the medicine.
Winter walks to pick up Yura's bag on the sofa, carries a pelastic filled with medicine there then pours water into the glass.
"It must be drunk all ..." Winter approaches Yura in bed and sits in front of the girl.
"I-I .. I can't take medicine."
"Yura, how can it be cured if it's not drunk?"
Yura sighed. Winter gave one medicine tablet to the palm of the girl's hand. Yura noticed the medicine in her palm.
"Why should it be bitter!" Yura then looked up at her husband.
"If the medicine comes out again how?"
"Replace with a new drug until all the drugs get into your body .." Winter said.
"But I--"
"Yura ..." Winter clasped the girl's left hand with a fixed look at her.
"If it gets worse, the more medicine you have to take. This is not how .. patience yes, just slowly drink it, later if you have entered one, silence first."
Yura bent her face, played one medicine in her hand then let out a long sigh.
"Try it ..."
With a doubt Yura put the medicine into her mouth, it was almost inside she moved it back away. As Winter continues to stare at her, the girl slowly puts the medicine in her mouth and takes a drink in Winter's hand.
He drank as much as he could, but Yura felt that the medicine did not go into his throat, the medicine was like floating in his mouth as a result of the girl spewing water along with a medicine that should be swallowed.
Yura threw up right into Winter's thigh. The suffering of someone who cannot take medicine.
"It's okay ..." Winter stroked the back of the girl who was still vomiting.
"Try again ..."
Yura looked up rubbing her lips with the back of her hand while shaking her head. "I can't .." he whined with teary eyes.
"I want Bi Ijah's jamu .." said Yura by wiping her crying eyes.
"But that's not the cure, Yura ..."
"Try your throat open, don't close. You hold a lot of water in your mouth until the medicine is bitter."
"Yes, you were the one who drank!"
Winter nodded. He took a bottle of vitamins in the drawer and took one vitamin tablet
"See this ..."
Winter showed me how to take her medicine, put it in her mouth and drink the water quietly not panic like Yura.
"It's easy." .
Yura sighed then turned her face away while grumbling. "It's easy because you can take your medicine."
Winter smiled faintly pulling Yura's cheek to look back at her. Yura's eyeballs moved back to look at her husband's iris.
The girl was forced to return to try to take the medicine. Not once, twice did Yura vomit again and again until Winter's pants and clothes were subjected to the girl's vomit. But Winter always smiled and encouraged Yura to try it again and again.
Although some drugs were wasted, at least now Yura managed to take five drugs prescribed by Doctor Leon and the possibility of the drug will also increase.
"Winter's chatty!" Yura got into the blanket, Winter just chuckled softly.
Yura says it because Winter doesn't stop talking telling her to take the medicine continuously. Yura felt that her prayer in the church a few days ago had been granted, which was to ask her husband a little chatty.
Yura fell asleep, not from sleepiness. But his energy was drained from vomiting again and again because of the bitterness of the medicine he had to drink.
Winter just came out of the bathroom after cleaning her body. He stared at the quiet girl who was sound asleep with a blanket up to her stomach.
Slowly he walked up the bed and sat down beside Yura. Winter picks up the phone on the nightstand and sends a message to Doctor Leon to arrange his appointment tomorrow.
Then Winter turned off the lights of his room, the atmosphere turned dim, only the sleeping lights illuminated their room.
Winter got into the blanket, sleeping sideways watching Yura. The man stayed up all night just to make sure Yura didn't return nausea or vomiting again.

In the morning, Yura stretched her muscles, yawned and opened her eyes slowly. When she looked to the side, Winter was no longer beside her.
Yura comes out of the room, goes down the stairs and sees Winter talking in the kitchen with a man.
Winter turned her head when she found out Yura was walking downstairs. The man approached his wife.
"He who?" ask Yura.
"New chef."
"The chef?" one eyebrow of Yura raised up. "Oris was taken by Daddy Maxime, can there be a chef here?"
"I'll talk later. Breakfast is ..." Winter pulls Yura's hand to the dining table.
Winter pulled out a chair and let his wife sit first. Yura takes the milk and drinks it, Winter puts the sandwich on Yura's plate.
"After this take the medicine again ..."
Yura stopped drinking the milk and returned to storing the glass on the table with a slight annoyance. Just last night he was taking medicine now he has to drink again.
He took the sandwich and ate it. Winter stroked Yura's head because she knew the girl was upset about having to take medicine continuously.
"You may ask for whatever you want, if it heals ..."
Yura just nodded slowly. Had Winter not known Yura was sick, the girl would not have taken the medication regularly, most only routine chemotherapy because holding her pain in injection is much easier than taking medication, according to Yura.
"Doctor Leon is here soon."
"You what?" ask Yura.
"I just want to have a chat with Doctor Leon" Winter said.
Yura nodded and then resumed her breakfast.
Winter eats her sandwich with her eyes fixed on Yura beside her, the girl eats quite ravenously, Winter cannot imagine if later having to see Yura in pain due to the effects of her leukemia treatment.
He had also promised Yura that her family and Yura's family would not know that she was sick.
"Yura .." call Winter.
Yura looked over with her mouth full of sandwiches. "Yes?"
"Spirit ..."
Yura stopped chewing then her smile expanded slowly.
"I'd rather be an encouragement from you than a drug ..."
