Keish:
“Take care of yourself Kei, sorry I can't help you because I have to attend Ade's graduation. As soon as the business there is already run, mother will go home,”
Yeah, that sentence, mother's farewell because mom's going to Paris. Right now I can only accompany him at the airport because he will soon be leaving there. I could only hold her hand and smile at my mother.
“Gak papa kok bu, mother just walk in Paris enjoy the romantic city. I don't need to think about Kei here, Kei can take good care of himself kok,”
“Hem fine if you think so.”
“About, mom's trip to Paris how many hours ya bu?” ask me a little curious because until now Andri did not call me on the phone nor was there active, did he not arrive in Paris? I know I never went out of the country.
“Kata Ade is 21 hours away by transit 2 times. Later in transit, mom will contact you,” I nodded slowly.
Hem, if there's a transit Andri should call me, why doesn't he call me at all. Don't you worry about me staying alone?
“Later when mom gets to Paris, I just call Mas Andri. Who knows if you met him there?”
“That must be Kei, if you can pass Ade's graduation, I'll call him,”
“iya, all of you attended Ade's graduation event right bu?”
“Iya son,” mother smile.
I could only sigh slowly, the weight of it if I left like this. It feels lonely I feel.
Mother stroked my hijab, I also saw her with her two eyes that have been glazed “Mom always pray the best for my daughter-in-law so as soon as she can have children. Thanks Kei, you are always patient, always smiling, always attentive to whatever happens. I'm lucky to get a daughter-in-law like you, I'll always keep Andri from other women so she'll always be with you until the end of my life,”
I smiled when I heard her, I grabbed her body and hugged her and rubbed her back “Kei was grateful to have in-laws like the mother Kei had considered a real mother. Always accept Kei's shortcomings even though Kei is sentenced to be barren, mother always accepts Kei with all the shortcomings that exist in Kei. Thank you ma'am, for giving Kei a million warmth. Kei is very grateful, stay healthy yes mom, so Kei is always with mom.”
Mom broke out her embrace and then held both of my cheeks. I saw every curve of my mother's face that had started to wrinkle here and there, I smiled looking at her face.
O God, thank You for sending in-laws like Andri's mother. Although I was not his son, but he always considered me like his son. I am so grateful for that, please, take care of his health because at this moment he is all I have.
The sound of notification was heard, “The plane has landed ma'am, mother goes into the gih, later mother misses the plane,” mother smiles and then she grabs her suitcase.
“Till there mom will call you ya Kei, take good care of yourself ya.”
“Yes mom,” I grabbed her hand then kissed the back of her hand.
“Fii amanillah ma'am, be careful on the road. Take care of health.” Mom nodded and smiled.
“Mother go first ya Kei,”
“Iya bu.”
After my mother's departure, I could only sigh heavily. With a very slow step, I walked out of the airport with my head bowed. But that was when it all happened.
Brugh...
“Aw!” my screeches.
I retreated a few steps back and almost fell down if no one was holding my body, my eyes looked at each other with both eyes.
Both eyes whose owner has helped me, “Keisha?” he looked at me not believing.
“Ha-ikal?”
Oh no! Realizing that Haikal was already holding my body, I immediately let go of his grip as well as he. I immediately retreated and Istigfar several times.
“Eung-it. You almost fell down, and I reflexively helped you. Sorry Kei, I was really unintentional,” Haikal said in an unkind tone.
I can only grimace, I should be the one apologizing for bumping into him. And I also cursed myself to walk instead with my head down, like this is the case.
“A-I'm also sorry Kal, for hitting you earlier. I should have looked around first,”
I glanced at Haikal who seemed to nod,”You, why here?” ask me a stupid question. I grimaced again, my God, why am I asking that silly question.
“Hem, I was again willing to nganter my friend who wants to move to Paris. Yes coincidentally I no longer have working hours, all the anterin he got here.”
I nodded in understanding, I guess if he laughed at my stupid question.
“Yourself, who's nganterin?” ask her back.
“Eng, my mother-in-law.” I replied briefly.
“Ohh,”
Immediately became quiet, feeling bad about this situation I immediately ended this meeting “Hem, then I say go home first huh Kal. Excuse me,”
I immediately walked back from before him, but my steps immediately stopped when Haikal said that he, “I anter you go home huh Kei?” Hearing the offer, I could only hold my breath.
Remember Kei, you and Haikal are just patients and doctors. Don't get it because this all changed in an instant, not that I don't want to establish a friendship with him but I just want to avoid him a little because we used to do ta’aruf.
Okay, if I thought personally I didn't have feelings. What about her? He must have had that feeling. It is evident that he is still single until now. Just my assumption, if yes I have to keep my distance from him if not Alhamdulillah, then it is not true.
I just keep not looking back “No need Kal, I can go home by myself. Thank you,” I immediately left it quickly without caring about it.
Luckily, in front of me there was a taxi, I went inside and told the driver to leave the airport now.
Arriving in the taxi, I leaned my body against the back of the chair while sighing and closing my eyes. I can only hold my left chest, why is this heart beating so fast? What was? The ground is not as usual.
