A WIFE'S TEARS BEHIND A CLOWN COSTUME
Accident

Still at Malik's house.

In the spacious playroom, in which there are various types of games, the space is deliberately prepared by Malik as a place to play Arif and for the place to play Arif Brothers later. Arif is seen sitting in front of the sand dune, he was playing with sand toys accompanied by Hamidah and Abdillah. They make various shapes of fruits, animals and any objects from the sand and its molds.

While playing, Abdillah occasionally sneak a glance at Hamidah who looks very sweet. Hamidah has a skin color that is not too white and not too dark as well. On his cheeks there are dimples, his teeth are also shaved, when he smiles, he looks very sweet.

Suddenly, Arif ran out of the room.

''Where are you going, Arif?'' ask Hamidah.

''I want to approach Mother with Papa.'' he replied, then after that Arif's body was lost behind the door. Now in that room were Hamidah and Abdillah alone. Abdillah who was confused had to start a conversation from where, then said, ''Thank you, yes, because you have accompanied Hanifa and Arif.''' Abdillah said sounding strange in Hamidah's ears. Abdillah was so amazed by the figure of Hamidah that he considered so good and sincere.

''Yes. Your feelings have often thanked me for that. Whereas Hanifa and I used to strengthen each other, we shared our joys and sorrows. I'm the one who doesn't have a family and I'm happy to meet Hanifa and Arif. I used to think of them as my own family, and until now they were my family. Hanifa also never changed, she was still as good as before even now she had become Madame Malik.''

''Do you want to be part of the real Hanifa and Arif family?''

''You mean?'' hamidah's eyes narrowed to look at Abdillah.

''Em ... Don't look at it either.'' Abdillah rubbed Hamidah's face with his palm. He was misbehaved in such a way by Hamidah.

''Oh, don't hold on too many times. Not muhrim!'' Hamidah protested, wiping the dark face of Abdillah's former hand. His face pouted, making Abdillah feel anxious.

''What if I just inaugurate you? So that you and I may become muhrim.'' Abdillah blinked his eyes.

''Apaan anyway, the more ngaco aja.'' said Hamidah wrong behavior.

''I'll pick you up later tonight, okay? I'll take you to dinner somewhere, do you want to?''

''What's the event?'' ask Hamidah.

''You want to, yeah?'' repeat Abdillah a little forceful.

''Bby.'' Hamidah finally agreed. Suddenly his face blushed.

''Yes.'' Abdillah exclaimed in pleasure.

Hamidah shook his head to look at Abdillah's behavior which he thought was so ridiculous and excessive.

That night, sure enough, Abdillah was getting ready, she was standing in front of a mirror the size of her in her room. He fixed his collar, neatly combed his hair and sprayed the farpum with a distinctive, fragrant fragrance that he so loved. Once he felt fit, he came out of the room. While passing through the family room, he saw Malik's entourage sitting and chatting there. Abdillah chose to join Hanifa, Malik, Sarah and Arif for a while.

''Where are you going, Abdillah?'' asked Sarah while paying attention to the appearance of Abdillah who can be said to be perfect.

''There's a, '' Abdillah replied with a slanted smile.

''Surely want to meet with Hamidah Tea, huh?'' guess Hanifa.

''Hu'um.'' Abdillah nodded in embarrassment while scratching her non-itchy nape.

''Oh ... So, is it the same Hamidah? Thank goodness Mama was happy to hear it. Hamidah is a good woman. Rather than the same Arumi, Mama really does not like the way he talks.'' said Sarah.

''Lho, how is Arumi, Ma?'' sahut Abdillah was astonished, he looked at Hanifa and Malik alternately. Abdillah had indeed called Sarah Mama, at Sarah's own request.

''That was, yesterday when Arumi came to visit Arif at the hospital, she confessed to Mama that she was Mas's future wife. Malik also smiled as he stroked his wife's shoulders.

''Just-There-there. You weird chick!'' abdillah said she felt the same way as Arumi.

''Bro, tomorrow we will go to Amrik, I have ordered our confidants to take care of everything, all our needs to go have everything ready. Agree do not agree you have to come, said Malik.

''Hamidah?'' ask Abdillah.

''Later, you ask him if he wants to come.'' said Malik again.

''OK, alright.''

''Yes already, gih there, later Hamidah Tea later in the day.''

''Asiaappp. I'm going first.''

''May his good intentions be successful, Mas.''

''Amin.''

After that Abdillah drove his four-wheeled vehicle to the Boutique. On the way, he tried to contact Hamidah, he would inform him that he would arrive soon. Suits make calls, Hamidah's number is off. Instantly Abdillah was hit by a sense of great worry, because usually Hamidah's cell phone can not be contacted as now.

Once in front of the store, there were people standing in the street in front of the boutique. The door also looks perfectly closed. Abdillah who was curious and indeed wanted to meet Hamidah just got out of the car. Once he had arrived outside, he asked one of the little tomboy-looking teenage girls.

''Grandpa, what's the matter? Why are people here?'' ask Abdillah politely.

''This, Brother. There was a woman who got hit, sister. Hit and run, replied the teenager.

''What? Wh who? Where is the man now?'' Abdillah asked repeatedly, hearing the teenager's answer, suddenly he was afflicted with panic and anxiety.

''I don't know who it is either, brother. I was just passing through. But people said the woman who was hit was wearing a robe and a headscarf. And now he has been rushed to the same hospital the fathers who happened to pass earlier. He was followed by his friends as well.'' explained the teenager, after which he said goodbye from the presence of Abdillah. After hearing that, suddenly Abdillah's body felt weak, he walked slowly to look into the streets, sure enough, on the streets there was thick blood reminiscing.

''No way Hamidah.'' Abdillah said, then he walked to the Boutique, he knocked on the door of the Boutique, hoping Hamidah would open the door.

After several times Abdillah knocked on the door, someone opened the door from the inside, once the door was open, there was a Boutique employee who stood with a face that looked damp.

''Ha-Hamidah, where? He's inside, right?''

''Pak Abdillah, Ms. Ha .... Huhuhuhu .. ''had not had time to finish his speech, the employee's cry broke again. Upon seeing that, Abdillah immediately understood, without any further thought he ran quickly towards his car. He drove his four-wheeled vehicle at high speed to a nearby hospital.

In a different place, Hanifa who was still chatting with her family took her mobile phone that was on the table. The screen of the phone suddenly lit up signaling there was an incoming call, once he saw who was calling, he raised his fast.

''Yes, Sari.'' said Hanifa. Sari is the name of the Boutique employee.

''Mom, Mrs Hamida was in an accident, Mom. Hiks ...''

''What?''

''Now that Ms. Hamidah has been taken to the hospital, she was hit while she was waiting to pick up from a special person, he said. Huhuhuhu ....''

The news from Sari managed to shock Hanifa, Sarah and Malik calmed Hanifa down and asked what happened. Hanifa explained in a trembling voice, then after that they left for the hospital.

***

At the hospital, a couple who were about sixty years old, and some women pushed a gurney carrying Hamidah's body. Hamidah was unconscious, blood still seeping from his head covered with hijab. After that, Hamidah's body was put in a room to be handled immediately.

A couple and two boutique employees were waiting in the waiting room, they were sitting in the available chairs.

''Thank you very much, sir, Mom, for helping our friends.

''Yes, equally. Hope your friend can still be saved, what a pity, his head is bleeding so much. Still young, beautiful too.'' said women who wear a robe and a wide hijab. She still looks beautiful at a young age.

''Pa, look at the child, Mama, remember our lost daughter first. We do not go home first, yes, we wait for news from the doctor first.'' said the woman shrieked to her husband.

''Yes, Ma.'' said the husband who wears a peci.

Seriate.

Who hit Hamidah?

And what was behind the calamity that befell him, bringing Hamidah to meet his biological parents?
