Am I Different?
(S3) Death of Grandma Dandi

The next day, the dawn prayer rumbled. The cries of Bu Sumi's son were heard in Bu Ina's ears.

"Darling, I'm awake. Find Mom, yuk. Who knows, I've come home" take Bu Ina to Bu Sumi's son.

Bu Ina patiently held Bu Sumi's son, who had started to calm down with her cries. They both opened the door of the house and saw some people had started to pass according to their activities. And so is Ranti's family. He got up and swept his lawn.

"Mom Ina, where are you going?" ask Randy gently.

"You're going to this Sumi house, Ran. He was from yesterday afternoon nitipin his son, but until today he did not pick up," replied Ms. Ina.

"Oh yes, Mom," said Ranti who always did not want to know the affairs of others.

Ms. Ina continued on her way back to Bu Sumi's house. Apparently, from the moment he left, not a single lamp he turned on.

"Mother!" the cries of Ms. Sumi's child broke again, when she saw her house was still covered in raat and there was no lighting there.

"Patience, Son. Maybe, Mom's busy. You, now it is safe with Mom and Dad," said Bu Ina trying to calm him down.

However, Ms. Ina still called Ms. Sumi, even though she knew her house was pitch black, but there was no word at all. To make his passing neighbor wonder. When there's a question, Ms. Ina must have answered the same thing.

In fact, one of her neighbors at that time chose to give this news to her ex-husband Bu Sumi. He was confused and explained that Ms. Sumi was not there.

"Bu Ina, take Bu Sumi's son home first. Said Bu Sumi's ex-husband, later his son will be picked up by him. But, she also didn't know where Sumi was exactly." Neighbors told.

"Good, Mom. Let me take it home, pity cry keep looking for his mother." Ms. Ina tried to calm the crying child of Ms. Sumi.

Ms. Ina brought him home. Currently, Bu Sumi was the talk of one village because he left his son as he wished himself. Some think he went carried away by men and some think that indeed Bu Sumi intended to stop by not wanting to take care of her son anymore.

Since that incident, until now, Ms. Sumi never came home. His son was well taken care of by his own father.

***

Sumi, until now never found the path she was looking for. Although in fact, after two weeks of the disappearance of Bu Sumi in the village next door word of the discovery of the decomposing body of a woman.

Neighbor Bu Sumi never wanted to know and find out who the figure behind the body was. Because, they all assume that if Bu Sumi did leave with her will to others and never thought if Bu Sumi died.

Sumi never realized that she was already in another world. He was still trying to find a way for himself to return home. Two weeks in the world, just feel two days there.

****

Since the departure of Bu Sumi, Ranti's life was calmer and more peaceful. No one else disturbed his life with his harsh words.

Ranti lives a comfortable, peaceful life with Nando and his baby until the end of life who is able to separate them both.

"I'm his son, Doc." Dandi's father approached the doctor.

"Sorry, Sir. Her mother is dead" the doctor told her.

"Grandma!" dandi shouted as he ran into the room. Seen old body old Bu Ranti covered with white cloth. Dandi clutched the body tightly, he cried bitterly.

"Wake, Grandma. Don't leave Dandi alone, who am I with?" Dandi shook his grandmother's body which was lying helpless again.

Dandi's mother approached and tried to calm him down.

"Dandi, go home with Mom, yeah. We are the ones who are currently going to take care of you" his mother said as she rubbed her head.

"Go! I just want to, Grandma. You guys are supposed to take care of me a long time ago, why should Grandma? You're evil!" Dandi with tears still kekeh drove his parents away.

"Dandi," called her father softly.

"Go! You guys go anywhere, when grandma's sick. You never cared about me and Grandma. You're evil!" yelled Dandi loudly.

Dandi felt bad. People who have been expected to see success must stop today. The taste he had once hoped for and the ideals he had once yearned for seemed to perish instantly. He felt a waste if there was no Bu Ranti by his side.

After that, the nurse came. They intend to clean the body of Bu Ranti before being brought home. Dandi chose to sit alone in the waiting room. Haru's previous cry broke the silence, now it was no longer heard.

Dandi could only stare at the floor and daydream. His mind was empty, leaving him unresponsive to anyone who asked him to speak.

"Dandi, Honey. Home, yuk. Pray for Grandma to have the best place by her side. You must be sincere, son." Dandi's mother tried to reach her body, but again Dandi dodged and away from her parents.

Dandi chose his own path, while occasionally wiping away tears. Bu Ranti's body was put into an ambulance. Although both parents brought their own vehicles, Dandi chose to accompany her Grandmother in the ambulance. Dandi hugged the coffin that Bu Ranti used.

"Dec, wipe your tears. Sincerely him, do not get your tears that burden him in the future," reprimanded one of the nurses who helped deliver the body.

Hearing those words, Dandi immediately wiped his tears quickly. He tried hard, though his tears were about to fall back.

Arriving at home, the coffin was lowered and Dandi became the only person seen slumped and silent there. At that time, Dinar who knew the ambulance passing by Dandi area also made him wonder.

"Dandi? Why this?" muttered Dinar while guiding his bicycle.

When you see the yellow flag pinned on the pole of Dandi's house, make Dinar's heart beat fast. He involuntarily removed the bike in his grip. Luka lost Keyla is still imprinted, so he does not want to lose Dandi.

He was watching people around him. People passed by even he broke loosely.

"Daddy, find who?" ask one of Dandi's neighbors.

"Who died? Where is dandi?" dinar asked in panic and a confused face.

"There, really. Dandi's grandmother died, she's inside. Let me drop you off" take Dandi's neighbor.

Dinar was tailed behind his neighbor Dandi, clearly seen Dandi bowed his head and his eyes look swollen.

"Dandi," murmured Dinar.
