Don'T Be The Antagonist
Broken Heart's

Keisha sat in front of Fauzan's villa with his head lowered. He could not attend Nuri's funeral because Aina forbade him from coming.

Not mean badly. It's just, because Keisha is pregnant, so she's not allowed to come there.

"I make orange tea, Non. Go ahead and have a drink" said Ms. Vina, putting a glass of tea on the small table next to Keisha's seat.

Keisha nodded while thanking him. And at that moment, Keisha again cried in silence because she was sad.

"Please don't keep crying, Non. You should not be too tired and have too many thoughts. Please take care of your body. You have to stay healthy for the child who is in your stomach" said Ms. Vina, reminding him.

Keisha wiped her tears with a tissue, trying to hold back the tears that felt hard to stop if it had made it out of her eye patch.

"I'm sorry, Ma'am. My heart hurts a lot from Nuri's departure. Haha, I only knew him for a few weeks. But why am I so–" Keisha could not continue her words, she lowered her head and returned crying with a slow sobbing.

"Haih, until when are you going to behave like that, Kei? You overwhelmed Ms. Vina" said Mirza, coming along with two female friends Keisha.

Keisha looked up, looked at his friends dressed in all black and approached him with anxious gazes.

"Don't cry, Kei. Lady Aina would not like to see this. Not even a single member of the Nuri family cried there. They were all trying hard to get the little boy to his final resting place" Fani said, sighing deeply.

"Sorry, have you washed your hands and feet?" mother asked Vina, blocking the three people who wanted to approach Keisha just like that.

"Wash? Already, in front of Mr. Gintara asked us to clean ourselves first before entering. Take it easy, Ma'am!" said Fina, telling.

Vina's mother nodded her head in understanding and pulled over, letting the three men approach Keisha and accompany her.

"I'll make you a drink and bring you a small meal. Excuse me first," said Ms. Vina, before leaving them.

Keisha and the three others simply nodded and refocused on Keisha who looked sad and devastated by the death of the youngest member in her husband's family.

"Is that what you said earlier, Fin? They're not crying there?" keisha asked, looking at Fina who was sitting on her left side.

Fina nodded and patted Keisha on the shoulder, sprinkling. "Yes, no one is crying. Even to the point of making the invited guests feel awkward if they want to cry in that place. Haha, and I'm one of them!" chirps, reviewing a wry smile.

Keisha smiled grievously, staring blankly at his two hands. "I was expecting it. They are very tough people. Even upon hearing the news for the first time, Fauzan did not cry. He just looks beaten and trying hard. He went straight to prayer and lecturing all night."

The man repeatedly wiped his tears that were about to come down, soaking his cheeks, as he read the holy verses overnight.

And Keisha was a witness to that fortitude all night. Both of them missed sleep and continued to pray and ask for forgiveness so that Nuri could calm down in nature there.

"Hahh, if you know this family, do it solemnly. I'm definitely not going to get in here. Haha, I'm a little embarrassed because alu can't pray and teach at all. Hahh .. The pressure came and pushed me to hijrah, " said Keisha, venting.

"Alhamdulillah," said Keisha's three friends, making Keisha look at them with a sour look.

"Don't taunt me. Entering into this family with evil intentions, it trapped me in the goodness of my Lord," wry Keisha, with an annoyed smile.

Aina sat in a rocking chair inside her private room, staring out the window and skipping dinner with her family.

"Ma, Mama didn't go eat?" alva asked, entered the room and approached Aina who was sitting by the window.

Aina turned her head, looked at her first child with a sour look and shook her head slowly. "Mama's not tasteful, Alva. You and your sister are eating dinner. Accompany your father at the dinner table" he said, gently.

Alva crouched down, putting her head on Aina's lap. "Sorry, Ma. Alva can't take good care of Nuri. Alva should have taken care of him and kept him together during the party. But Alva became a stage guard like yesterday. Alva apologized," he said, completely guilty.

Aina stroked her hair gently, looking at Alva with a sad look.  "Don't say that, Al. Everything is predestined. Maybe this is the best choice for Nuri, from God. God is missing her, your sister is called home. God loves Nuri, son. Therefore, God stopped this painful struggle for her."

Aina trembled, she lowered her head and placed her forehead on Alva's temple.

He tried to hold back his tears with all his might. But he seemed unable and shed his tears on Alva's face.

Alva was unmoved, remaining in his position with his eyes closed. Giving Aina the space to cry freely.

"It's God's best choice for your sister. My beautiful son, finally stopped fighting his pain. Finally stopped crying every night for enduring the agony in his head." Aina's lips trembled violently, making Alva cry in peace to hear Aina's painful voice.

"Mama's beautiful child, after struggling, crying and laughing until the age of 10 years. After being put in Mama's arms for 10 years, she was finally called and Mama would never hug her again. My smart and beautiful child, already not with Mama, Alva Mama is very sad .. hiks, it turns out that Mama is not that strong to hold everything," Aina grieved, crying without a sound.

Alva got up, hugged her and cried with her. "It's okay, Ma. Cry, 'cause Mama's just a human. Cry when you are sad. Cry as much ...."
