DIRECTION (Tibla of Love)
86

Family gathering is a routine that is done by the Family of the deceased Ardi and Almarhumah Pita.

All gathered in their heritage house.Children, Grandson, Sodara and all came without exception.

Very busy people such as Jansen and Vinsen also came and even Vinsen's ex-wife was present with her new husband and their children.

They took the time, emptied the Schedule just to get together and get to know each other.

A lot has changed for sure, some have left and some have come.

Many new and newborn children are recognized, and there are even new daughters-in-law who are present.

Very many people, so to recognize each other is difficult.

Mahreen stood at the end of the stairs, The boisterous sound that waves filled his eardrums.Each of each other chatting not to mention the little children who joined screaming whatever they shouted.

His eyes continued to look at one person, Many very many that he did not recognize, Maybe they knew him but not for him.

"Only Ateu does not have many Children and Grandchildren"

The word immediately made Mahreen look at her aunt.

Mahreen hugged the middle-aged woman who had always been her friend since childhood.he knew what it was like to be abandoned, and he also knew how lonely his aunt was today.

"Aibi must be strong, There is still Kartika who needs a Aunt.Bibi do not despair for the sake of the only grandson of Aunt" said Mahreen

Alma smiled and rubbed Mahreen's back, the niece she loved the most.

"If one day Bibi comes home, Aunt Kartika tipped on Mu.Jaga and love him."

Mahreen looked at Alma disliked, his words reminding me of the past few years when his father told him to take care of his children, to educate his children well, to be well, I hate parting but want how else the destiny of a human being must be like that, every one who comes there will certainly be someone who comes home.

"I don't promise, I don't want to curb a girl looking for her identity.Kartika is no longer a little boy Bi."

"But aunt can only hope for you, Auntie felt.........

Alma Limbung and weak drooping.

"Bie"

"Bie"

Alfi and the others approached and brought Alma to the middle of the room.

" innalillahiwainnailaihirojihun" the word simply came out of the mouth that was right next to Alma.

Kartika horn lethargic, the girl stared blankly at the body of her grandmother. Khadija embraces the girl's body and whispers the phrase istighfar repeatedly so that Kartika follows her.

Direct boistery occurs, when the association occurs even there are things that leave the heart.emang this is what Alma Iya wants to go home but wants to be witnessed and wanted to be delivered by his entire family. 10 Years Alma has been living alone in the mansion relics of her brother, 10 years ago her husband died with his two sons due to a consecutive accident.Lahya lives with his first child, who is the first child, but it was not long because his son had to come back with his husband leaving his hometown to wander to the island of Sumatra, Sumatra, until 4 years ago his son died he was helped by the family to find where the body of his son and where his grandson was.

Maybe only 4 years he can accompany his only grandson, but there is no doubt once a little in his heart when he entrusts his grandson to the nephew he loves. He was sure that his nephew would take good care of his only granddaughter Kartika, educating her granddaughter lovingly and affectionately.

The passing of one of the family members made their hearts again Brittle, it was his destiny but why must it be this fast Is not Sigit older than Alma? even Hana and Hani as well as the Goddess asked so? Why should Alma? his youngest sister, one of his family members, left their children and grandchildren.

Arsya massaged his forehead that felt dizzy, I did not expect something like this to happen. He looked at the elders crying over his aunt's body. Who does not cry, all cry when they find out that one of their families is back home. Arsa doesn't know what to do, what to do? one thing I do think, is there will be another aunt replacement who is so dexterous and so energetic in doing everything, especially gathering people to attend family gatherings, a large family whose parents have gone home.

While Jansen was holding her chest in pain, Alma was the one she used to prank around, and Alma was the one who always scolded and always asked her for this, but Alma is a friend, a friend, and also a Mother figure for him.Yes still remember when he did bad things to his wife, Who dares come slapping, who dares to come slapping, beating and scolding him blatantly in front of all his employees, only Alma can do that to him.he needs Alma, he needs a woman who is tough, strong and always strengthening.

While Vincent was not strong enough to hold back his tears, he was the same as the others.why should Alma? It is not wrong to see once his crime Alma does this it prepares this family gathering event, Alma's age is only different a few years with him but Alma has a different soul than others. vincent's mind was like Jansen's - a man who always sinned against a woman by his misbehaviour on women, but only Alma dared to rebuke them, who dared to slap them, but only Alma dared to rebuke them, who dare to scold them, who do not hesitate to do foolish actions just to make them aware of their mistakes.

"GRANNY TIKA COMES ALONG" the shout sliced through the hearts of everyone who was there, a shout from a girl who lived in Sebatang Kara. no one is strong left let alone just one person who became his family, which became his back.

" istighfar dear istighfar" said Khadijah" Astagfirullahaladzim" whispered yes right in Kartika's ear" astaghfirullahaladzim" he said again with hands that continue to approach the fragile body, Khadija is equally not strong but how else is this fate.

repeatedly Kartika fainted, all the family felt the loss and felt what Kartika felt for a parent child is everything, everything, the one who will stand first and when die for himself.

well this is how life, however all there is a path of destiny each.

Alma is one of those people who has another side of kindness that impresses some who feel it.
