Destiny Gintani
Please, I understand!

Arriving at the dining room, all the family members were gathered for dinner.

"Well, where's Gintani, Ar?" ask Mr. Jaya.

"Looks, he's not feeling well, Pa," replied Argha.

"Kok, Papa doesn't know. Hmm, maybe because I haven't seen you all day, huh? But, this afternoon, when Papa came home for lunch, Papa saw that Gintani was fine. What's he sick of, Ar?" asked Mr. Jaya who was curious to hear the news suddenly his daughter-in-law was sick.

"Hurt, times, Pa," replied Nadhifa at will.

Argha's eyeballs were instantly perfectly rounded hearing his sister's ridiculous answer. He knew what his sister meant to say that way. Argha also glared at his sister as a signal for the sister to shut her mouth.

Looking at Argha's facial expression, Nadhifa only turned his eyes around because he was feeling careless.

"What is this, why is your body language so different? Is there something you're hiding from Papa?" tuan Jaya asked curiously.

"No, Pa" replied Argha.

"Yes, already, Pa. Let's eat! Later after eating, we take Gintani to his room. Can you, right, Ar?" ask Mrs Rosmah.

"Yes" answered Argha briefly.

A few minutes passed. After eating, Mr. Jaya and his wife went to Gintani's room. Once there, Gintani seemed to be asleep. Eventually, Mr. Jaya and Mrs Rosmah abandoned her intention to approach Gintani.

Meanwhile, Argha entered the room and locked it. Seeing the tired face of his wife, Argha decided not to wake Gintani up. Although actually Argha's heart was still worried to see the silence of the wife.

Argha sat down beside Gintani. Her hands gently caressed Gintani's hair. "I know you're angry, Gin. I know you're disappointed. But I have no other choice. Ilona was my best friend, I knew her long before I knew you. And Ilona, she lives in this world. Please, understand! I just want to help him in his difficult times" murmured Argha.

Jessica Amanda's.

"How's it going, her, Doc?" jessica asked after seeing Richard's doctor had finished examining Umi Kulsum.

"He's fine. Only, his blood pressure was quite low. Maybe he was exhausted and felt shocked to hear the news of mommy's death, too" replied Dr. Richard.

"So, you know this young man, son?" ask ustadz Hasan to Jessica.

"Eh, yes Abi. He's the doctor who handled Jessi's friend first. Oh yes, Doc. This is Abi Hasan, her husband Umi Kulsum" Jessica said.

"Umi Kulsum?" ask Dr. Richard, frowning.

"Ah, yes. Your aunty. She was my wife, and since we were married, she changed her name to Umi Kulsum" replied Ustadz Hasan.

"So, you're her husband aunty? My Uncle?" doctor Richard said.

Ustadz Hasan nodded.

Doctor Richard approached ustadz Hasan. He kissed the back of Hasan's right hand as a tribute to his parents. Ustadz hasan embraced his wife's niece.

"Sister Jeli...Sis jelly..," muttered Umi Kulsum.

Ustadz Hasan and doctor Richard immediately broke down the embrace when they heard the delirium of Umi Kulsum. They're approaching Umi Kulsum.

"Mii...Umi" said Ustadz Hasan shaking his wife's shoulder slowly.

Slowly, Umi Kulsum's eyes began to open. The light of the lights that blinded her eyes made Umi Kulsum blink for a while.

"Where is Umi?" asked Umi Kulsum to her husband.

"We're at Jessica's house" replied Ustadz Hasan.

Umi Kulsum turned her gaze to look at Jessica. The yearning sparkle was again clearly drawn in his eyes. A few seconds later, he turned his gaze towards Doctor Richard. His smile expands when he sees her. "You two, come here!" pinta Umi Kulsum to Jessica and doctor Richard.

The two people who were called approached. Umi Kulsum gently stroked Jessica's hair. "Beautiful boy" Umi Kulsum praised Jessica.

"Thank you, Umi," Jessica replied in embarrassment.

A moment later, doctors Richard and Jessica looked at each other. They did not understand the meaning of Umi Kulsum's words.

"Already, umi. Rest up!" ustadz Hasan broke the awkwardness between them.

"But Abi...."

Ustadz Hasan shook his head. "You wait outside. Let Abi take care of Umi." Ustadz Hasan gave orders to the young man.

Without resisting, Jessica and Dr. Richard leave them.

"Why Abi stopped Umi's intentions," protested Umi Kulsum who apparently wanted to match her daughter with her nephew.

Ustadz Hasan shook his head. "It's not yet time, Umi. Let what has to happen, flow like water. Do not force the will. If they are fooled, Abi is sure, they will certainly be met in a bond diridhoi. Now, focus on your health. Don't forget Husni either. Umi didn't want to, did Husni come back to this country just because he heard that he was sick?"

"Bab, Abi. Why take Husni with you?"

"Yes, follow Abi's words. Rest up!" said Ustadz Hasan while covering his wife's body.

Gintani blinked as sunlight entered the window of her room.

"Astaghfirullah azim thing, it's noon," he screeched when he saw the clock working on his nightstand.

Gintani rushes down to the bathroom to clean herself up. Gintani could not sleep well. The pain in his head attacked again. When she woke up and was about to wake her husband, Gintani saw that Argha was sleeping very well. Finally Gintani undoes his intentions. By dawn, his eyes could be closed.

As she exited the mosque, Argha was standing in front of the glass combing her hair.

"Have you woken up, Yang?" ask unfaedah Argha.

Gintani. His hands were busy cleaning his old bed last night.

"Gin, please don't act like this! You're not a kid anymore. Your age is old enough to sulk," said Argha.

Gintani sighed, she then sat down on the edge of the bed. "I'm not sulking, Mom" he replied

"Then?"

"Then, what?"

"Why have you kept me quiet since yesterday?"

"I think you understand what I'm doing, Mom."

"Gin, how can I understand if you never talk. Please, speak up! I don't want any distance between us."

"Then why do you have to make that distance, Mom. Don't act like a pilon in front of me. I'm too fed up with all your cues. I was quiet because I was tired. I don't want to talk, 'cause I know the direction you're going is going to go everywhere. So stop asking why am I silent?" gintani said with a tone full of emotion.

Argha approached Gintani and crouched down before him.

"Let's explain. A few days ago, I met Ilona. And you know, Gin. Ilona is ill at the moment. She had late-stage ovarian cancer. Yesterday, Mas only drove him to check-up, because in this city he had no one else. Please, understand! What Mas did to Ilona, it's just a human feeling" said Argha.

Gintani was so shocked to hear that Ilona was suffering from this malignant disease. But, after all, what Argha did was still wrong. He shouldn't have hidden this from her. Gintani could only remain silent.

"Gin, Mas knew Mas was wrong for not telling this in advance. But, I'm afraid you misunderstood. I'm afraid you're accusing Mas of having feelings for Ilona. I swear, Gin. She has no more taste for him. He just thinks he's a friend. Whether it was then, now, or in the future though," said Argha.

"Should have been honest from the start. What do you think, I'm a selfish wife, that would limit her husband's association?" This time, Gintani's tone again weakened.

"Mas knows I'm wrong. I'm sorry, huh?" argha said, kissing the back of Gintani's hand.

Gintani nodded, though in his heart still tucked in doubt. But no, I can't be so bad thinking. It may be true what Mas Argha said. Oh my God, please keep our marriage bond.
