Fatih who was busy with emails from her phone had to pause for a moment when the call notification from ana switched the current layer of her phone. Without a second thought, Faith lifted him up.
“iya ana. What's up?” ask fatih.
“ada to tell dad. And there's something you have to ask for,” said ana from across there. Faith's forehead shriveled at the sound of her daughter-in-law who was like someone had finished crying. Hoarse and slightly vibrating.
“ada what? Say, son,” answer faith.
“zergan critical. Please bring aludra and zayn here,” said mama ana across there with a trembling voice holding back her cries.
“can you tell me, ana?” ask the fatih who is not calm.
“ayah relax. Zergan had relapsed. While going to sleep, he had difficulty breathing until he fainted. Ana's really scared, dad. Ana is afraid that zergan can relapse and suddenly fail to breathe until death,” said ana told what had just happened with zergan.
“then now?” tanya fatih with the sound of fiber will be a concern.
“now zergan is fine, but do not know if later. Zergan's disease can recur at any time, father. His illness can make him die at any time,” said mama ana crying.
“ana relax. I will fly there now with aludra and zayn,” said fatih sure.
Ana shakes her head in her place even though fatih won't see. “don't, father. Not tonight. Just wait for tomorrow. If dad tells aludra tonight I'm afraid he'll be surprised and it'll have an impact on the content. Zayn must be a confused child later. If aludra why-napa, zergan can be angry if he wakes up later,” said mama ana after thinking clearly.
“but will zergan be okay?” ask fatih fear.
“iya, dad. The professor said that Zergan had already made it through his critical period. A lot of rest is what zergan needs the most right now. Ana asked for her prayer, dad. And most importantly, please bring aludra and zayn here, dad. It does not have to be now, tomorrow only,” said mama ana replied and tried to calm fatih.
Fatih sighed in her place. “alright. I always pray for you there. Tomorrow I'll have a good talk with aludra. Now you rest, ana. Take care of your health,” said fatih reminded ana.
“well, dad. Ana closes first. Asssalamu’alaikum,” said ana closed her call.
“waalaikumsalam,” replied fatih. Fatih closed her eyes after keeping the phone away from her ear. The man let out a heavy sigh to incline his mind for a moment.
“what's up, sir?” ask anwar. Anwar did accompany fatih. Anwar returned to the fatih house after last dinner together with the hero.
“zergan relapses, anwar,” says fatih honestly.
“then how?” ask anwar worried.
“is fine now. But not necessarily later. Ana asked me to bring aludra and zayn there,” said fatih without anything he kept secret from anwar. Anwar is like a child to fatih, so there is nothing wrong with him saying all this.
“i'm sad, sir. But you should never break up your prayers and always think about your own health,” said Anwar advising.
Fatih nodded. “I will sleep first. You also rest,” said fatih standing up and walking towards his room.
Anwar stared at the departure of his big boss with a sad look. “you are very strong at a very late age, sir. Whether happy as what God prepared until your old age also has to bear all these problems. I always pray for your health, sir,” murmured anwar sincerely.
Anwar is a witness to how hard the fatih struggle to maintain the old man's mental health. From the betrayal given by his wife, the scandal of his children and adopted grandchildren to the present disease of his only grandson who became the mind of fatih.
…..
Ana sits next to Zergan's bed. His hand did not come off even a little grasping zergan's hand.
“mama asked alu and zayn to come here. Don't go back like that, son. Mama herself is here. Mama bingunga should how,” continued mama ana talk as if zergan heard what he said. And that's what mama ana has. Hopefully by hearing what he said, Zergan can open his eyes.
Surprise is still very much felt for mom. Zergan was okay at first. Even the man was still angry nurse who was looking for a chance to get close to him. somehow, suddenly zergan relapsed to make his condition drop to fainting. “taste mama want to die just look at you kayak earlier, son,” said mama ana sad.
Mom's head is down. His hand never left Zergan's.
“ma,” call a weak voice that makes mama ana instantly lift her head.Mama ana's smile rises looking at the zergan who opened her eyes.
“you are aware, son,” said mama ana happy.
Zergan smile. “sorry mama,” says sorry zergan.
Mama ana shook her head. “you're fine, son. We must return home safely to Indonesia,” said mama ana with her sweet smile. But the eyes of middle-aged women it uterus watering because of sadness and also Happy. Sad because of his son's condition, happy because Zergan is awake and still trying to survive.
“tomorrow what date? two right, ma?” tanya zergan looked at mama ana sad.
Mama ana nods. “why, son?” mama asked confused.
“tomorrow wedding anniversary zergan. But zergan is even here and can not be with aludra,” said zergan sad with watery eyes.
“don't make your condition worse, son. Did you think about this?” asked mama ana who answered nodding by zergan.
Mama ana sighed softly. “nak,” call mama ana soft.
Zergan.
“aludra must have understood. Don't torment your mind and mind, son. It can be dangerous for your health now. You really need calm for now,” said mama ana advising.
“zergan misses zergan's wife and son, ma,” said zergan grudgingly averted his eyes from the gaze of mama ana.
Honestly, seeing the aludra sitting with rio in the park is very disturbing for zergan. Zergan knew it was just an accidental encounter, but still the images sent by zayn were very disturbing to the zergan. Zayn's intention was just to joke around and heat him up, but if he didn't survive here then the picture could have come true. Zergan didn't want that to happen.
“please call the professor, ma,” said zergan slowly.
Mama ana nodded. His hand pressed the button on the head of the zergan bed that was directly connected to the professor who treated the zergan.
Ten minutes after that, zergan's outpatient room door opened. “you're awake, zergan?” ask the professor with a smile.
Zergan turned to the door and returned the professor's smile. “I've been better,” he said honestly.
The professor immediately conducted several examinations to ascertain the condition of the zergan. And he nodded if indeed zergan is better. “better than before.”
“professor,” call zergan.
“ada what?”
“can I go back to Indonesia?”
