After reading the letter, Rena fell asleep. Maybe because all day he had too many tears, side effects make him sleep tired.2 hours after falling asleep, Rena woke up to hear Ian's cry. Ian was crying in the corner of the bed hugging a picture of his mother. No one heard Ian cry.
Right now the whole person was resting, no one was waking up from his sleep. Even Sus Rini who usually always quickly woke up in the middle of the night, also still sleeping in a dream. Naturally, everyone had done twice as much activity as before. Fortunately, there is still a Rena who can still be awakened. Rena sat down to approach Ian, then she hugged Ian while rubbing the top of her head.
"Why you, baby?" ask Rena.
"Dian.. Hix.. Dream, mama riding a horse to the sky. If mama left... Ian, Brother Alea and Papa how sis? Ian still wants to play with mommy.. Hix.. Hicks.."
"There's sister Rena. I promise you, I'll always be there for Ian. Brother who will play with Ian, Brother Alea and also Papa. When the time comes, we'll meet my mother in heaven, too.."
"Sister Promise? Hicks.."
"Promise, now that Ian's sleeping again huh. Later when all is ready, we take mama to mama's new house.."
"Yes, brother hugged Ian yes. Mama always hugged Ian if Ian woke up from a dream" Ian said.
"Okey, while you're telling me another story, huh?.."
Ian's response nodded. After that Ian immediately took his favorite storybook, then he gave it to Rena. Rena was sitting next to the bed could, she began to read the story in the book.
After putting Ian to sleep, he walked out. She went to the bathroom, then changed into a new clean outfit. As it was still early in the morning, he tried to look at the situation outside. But his steps stopped in the middle room, he saw Allan who had not rested since last night.
'Really, Fara said, she's going to pretend to be okay. When in fact he is the most sad than others.' murmured Rena in the heart.
Rena walked out, looking for the figure of Fathur in the crowd of mourners who came. When he found what he was looking for, he walked up to him.
"Fathur.." call Rena.
He automatically turned around to look for the source of the sound. It turned out that her young mistress was calling, she was waiting for Rena to speak.
"Can you try to talk to Mr Allan? I can't bear to see him like that" Rena said.
"It's not that I'm not willing, miss, it's just that we'd better wait for everyone to come and be ready first. Then I will talk to you, so that you can be buried immediately. I am afraid to disturb you when your emotions are unstable, miss," replied Fathur.
"What time is the funeral?"
"at 9 am, miss," replied Fathur.
"Okay the rest of the 1 hour from now, I'll wake the kids up and have everyone get ready" Rena said.
"Yes, lady, I will stay here waiting for the mourners to come."
"Do you know where Sus Rini is?"
Alea could only shake her head, after which she clasped Rena's hand tightly. The surprised and confused Rena asked Alea what was wrong?
"Why you, baby?" ask Rena.
"Sister can't stay Alea, Ian, same Papa huh... Hix.. Alea's afraid.. Hiks.." Alea's cry broke.
This morning Ian was already tantrums like this on Rena, now it's Alea's turn. Ian can easily be entertained with anything else, one reason being that he is still quite small. But the same treatment could not be applied to Alea. She was old enough, she knew her mother was dead. He would have known, too, if he would not have been able to meet and chat with his mother again. At this time he must be afraid, if people around him who he loves will also leave him.
Rena's first step to calming down was to smile sincerely at Alea. With the aim that Alea did not feel more alone and more sad. After that, Rena started to invite Alea to talk.
"Yesterday, didn't my sister promise? Promises must be kept, brother will always be there for you and others. Alea can promise sister too? Alea had to be a good son and sister, too." asked Rena.
"Promise." replied Alea.
"Okey, if that's how you prepare Alea's clothes. Alea took a bath herself, and soon we'll take mama to a new house.. We may be sad, we may cry, but we must not be constantly sad. Kasian mama later, we have to encourage each other.. Okay?"
"Okey brother.. Alea take a shower, yeah,"
After Alea enters the bathroom, Rena wakes up Sus Rini and asks her to immediately replace Ian's clothes. At least Ian has changed clothes, to take a shower can be done after the funeral is over. Then Rena also helps other families stay to get ready. After everything was ready, they gathered in the living room.
Someone who was in charge of leading the funeral had also arrived. All prayed first before the body of Brother Fara was brought to the tomb. Kak Fara was buried near the house complex, with the aim that we could visit the nearest family often.
This morning they were walking the bodies on foot. Since from home Rena has asked sus Rini to take care of the children, Rena's focus while on the road is to see Allan. Rena is worried that Allan will not be able to walk again. Plus because Rena knows for herself that from last night until now she has not slept.
Rena asked Fathur to prepare a car just in case. Although Fathur does not know what for, but he still carries out Rena's orders. Rena's gaze continued to be on Allan.
She is only 21 years old, but now she must be able to learn to be a mother and wife at once. Things are quite heavy but must be lived Rena. Moreover, he had dared to take this risk from the beginning. But he didn't expect this to happen so soon.
The funeral went well. Ian and Alea have also brought Sister Rini home. All mourners began to leave the tomb one by one, leaving Allan, Fathur and Rena who are still in the vortex of the tomb of Brother Fara. Since the mourners left until now, they have been more than 2 hours in the tomb. Because quite worried Rena also tried to approach Allan and began to invite him to talk.
"Sir Allan, it's noon enough. Go home yuk. Later in the afternoon after our break we come here again," asked Rena.
Slowly Rena sat closer to Allan, after finishing talking she grabbed Allan's hand while helping him to stand up. But what Allan did to him was unexpected.
