Butterfly In You
Chapter 78: The Death of Jody Abraham

Before returning to the country, Lilis and Shehan took the time to buy typical Turkish hand fruit. Shehan, as a husband and citizen of Turkey, was very loyal to guide and suggest anything that Lilis can buy as souvenirs.

"Buy a lot of Turkish tea, baby! So that your mother can be satisfied to enjoy it and can be shared with other siblings as well."

"Yes, Mas" Lilis replied happily. He stuffed many boxes of Turkish tea into the shopping trolley that Shehan was carrying. In addition to tea, they also buy several types of processed dried fruit and other typical Turkish foods such as turkish delight-type desserts as well as marzipan-almond paste.

There are also chestnut-candy candies made from chestnuts. Taken from around Mount Uludag, then boiled in sugar syrup, safranbolu lokum-saffron is unique with a different taste due to the addition of pistachios and coconuts. Not to forget some items that are intended as souvenirs one of them is silk foulards, iznik pottery and glass lamp mosaic.

"Well! That's enough, Mom!" Lilis gasped at the sheer number of Turkish items she had bought, almost mountain-topping. Fortunately, Shehan was kind, not blaming his wife when the preoccupation of buying various kinds of this and that.

"Recare you done? If you still want to, we can buy another."

"No, Mas!" Lilis refused while shaking her head a few times. Got dizzy themselves looking at the contents of their shopping trolley, "that's enough, Mas. Don't buy anymore."

Shehan just smiled gracefully. "Yes, already. Come on, let's go to the cashier!"

"Yes, Mum."

Shehan pushed the shopping trolley followed by Lilis who was embracing her arm at the side.

Upon returning from his honeymoon in Turkey, Lilis took the time to visit Banyuwangi by inviting Nurbanu - who they had picked up in Jakarta, Indonesia, after two days since the return of Lilis and Shehan to the Fatherland. LiIis wanted to give Turkish souvenirs that she had bought directly to her mother and sister.

The two people closest to Lilis were certainly happy even though they did not go on vacation. At least, seeing the happiness emanated from Lilis aura could already make Nining and Doni happy.

"Mom, this is a little gift from me and Mas Shehan." LiIis handed over a parcel containing Turkish fruits to Nining in the living room of the house. Doni-Lilis' sisters were also there, sitting next to Nining.

"Well, Lis, what is this?" Nining enthusiastically received the parcel from Lilis.

"Turkish tea and snacks, Ma'am. Mas Shehan wants you to taste tea from his country."

"Thank you very much, Lis. Please also tell your husband, thank you very much for his gift. May the sustenance of you two be more launched huh, son."

"Yes, Mom. Oh yeah, that Turkish tea is a lot. So you can share it with other siblings and new neighbors here."

Amidst the ongoing conversation, suddenly came the sound of a call from outside. Precisely in front of the grocery store owned by Nining which was built at Shehan's request and located near the gate of the house.

"Bu Nining, buy, Mom!"

The occupants of the living room spontaneously turned to the source of the sound.

"Don, somebody bought it, Don!" Nining patted his son's arm a few times. "Serve first, yes!"

"Yes, Mom." Doni-sister Lilis gets up, leaving the living room of the house to serve the buyer. Then I heard their conversation. "What do you want to buy, Miss Leni?"

"Fried oil yeah, Don."

"Yes, Mom."

"Please two liters, yes. Still expensive oil, Don?"

"No, Ma. Already down. There's been news of his notice from the government on TV."

"Oh, great! Well then, you guys buy three bath soaps, Don."

"Yes, Mom."

"Ma, buy some snacks, Ma! Ma, buy some snacks, Ma!"

"Yes, wait a minute. Later if there's any change left, Mama buy some snacks!"

"Now dong, Ma!"

"Wait a minute, son. The money will not be enough!"

Doni smiled at herself. Indeed luck sided with the child because the change of Bu Leni was quite a lot.

"This is the change."

After counting the money, Bu Leni finally allowed her son to buy snacks. "Yes, already. What would you like to buy, son?"

"Brown candy, Ma. Same with ice cream."

Ms. Leni also complied with her son's request by buying candy and two pieces of ice cream. "Later ice cream love each other Brother, yes! Don't scramble!"

"Yes, Ma."

Finished serving the buyer, Doni joined the living room again. Follow her sister and mother's conversation.

"Yes, Lis. You're the same Nurbanu stay the night, Lis. Tomorrow we just go back to Bali, "take Nining. But it was subtly rejected by Lilis.

"Lilis wants it that way too, Mom. But pity Mas Shehan that LiIis is here. Nurbanu also has to enter Kindergarten again tomorrow, it's been a long time not to go to school."

Nining turned her head, Lilis continued. Nurbanu himself was engrossed in playing mobile phones, not caring about adult conversations.

"Yes too, Lis. Yes, next time take time to stay, yes, if you come again here."

"Yes, Mom."

At 14:00 pm, Lilis and Nurbanu had left again, returning to Bali by car driven by Mr. Maman. Shehan could not come because he was busy taking care of office work that had been delayed.

But alas, Lilis happiness did not last long. Upon returning from Banyuwangi, Lilis again found herself nosebleed. Not just nosebleeds, Lilis joints also feel pain.

At first, Lilis thought this was common because she had just spent a pretty grueling day in Turkey. Until the nosebleed occurred for three days in a row, Lilis began to worry with her guess.

"Actually why me? Often these nosebleeds occur," lilis lamented to herself. The removal of the blood-soaked tissue he had just used to wipe his nose into the toilet. Afraid that Shehan would see her if Lilis threw the tissue in the toilet trash.

'Is it better that I go to the doctor to check on my health?' Lilis looked at the watch circling her left wrist, 'it was still nine in the morning. Still had time to go to the hospital before picking up Nurbanu at the Kindergarten school.'

this time LiIis was determined and did not hesitate anymore. But before that, Lilis waited for her dream to subside for a while, just left for the hospital with delivered by Mr. Maman.

Nightfall.

The shocking news suddenly appeared on television screens as the entire Shehan family was sitting in the living room after dinner.

'Good night, Audience. At first glance the info is back on the sidelines of your activities, with me Tania Novika Sari who will provide the latest and actual news about home and abroad.'
