Honey For Amira
Padhe's Arrival

After five days of his wife's coma in the hospital, Farhan bids his mother to leave.

This afternoon, it happened that Bu Aminah was still in the hospital. While Galih, as usual he went to work.

"Mom, I'm going to the boarding school, ma'am. I haven't visited Kyai Abas in a long time. I want to go there, ma'am" said Farhan.

Bu Aminah stared at Farhan.

"Are you sure you want to go there? if you go there, how about your baby and Zia? you want to stay with them?" ask Bu Aminah.

"Yes Mom. Can you wait for Zia and my baby to be here? I've lost my way, ma'am. I want to go there, who knows, after I get there, I will get enlightenment from Abah" said Farhan.

Aminah seemed to think. Farhan's pesantren is quite far away. Maybe from Farhan village to there takes seven hours drive.

If it goes back and forth, Farhan will probably take one day and one night to get to Kyainya's house.

"Why do you suddenly want to go there?" ask Bu Aminah.

"Ning Azwa yesterday called. He said Uminya died. But I couldn't go there yesterday. Because my mind is still fucked."

"Ning Azwa who is it? kyai's son you?"

"Yes Mom. I don't feel good if I don't go there. Because the one who died was Miss Nyai Kyai's wife. Who knows if I go there, I'll get enlightenment."

"Yes, mom agrees. Ask you to pray for Zia and your sick child. Let Zia and your son be treated for his illness."

"Yes, Mom."

"When are you going there?"

"Maybe tomorrow morning ma'am. In the morning I took the train there. I'd like to ask Mas Galih to take me to the station."

"Yes, I agree Farhan."

"Thank you, Mom. I'm letting you go."

Aminah nodded her head.

****

After work, usually Galih immediately stopped by the hospital, or he immediately went home. But for now, he wanted to stop by Laila's house first.

It has been a month over Galih not nengokin Laila and Amira to his house. The last time he went there, Amira was able to walk with a cane. And Galih wants to see the development of Amira's condition.

As usual, Galih brought Amira and Laila's favorite food and snacks.

A while later, Galih's motorbike had arrived in front of Amira's house. Galih was surprised to see a car parked in front of Amira's house.

"Whose car is this. Tumben has a car" said Galih.

Galih does not know whose car is in front of Amira's house.

"It looks like there's another guest inside. But whose guests yes," said Galih.

The curious galih, then got off his bike. After that he walked up to the front porch of the house Amira.

The door to Amira's house, wide open. Inside the house, Galih heard the voice of the man who was chatting with Amira. It seemed that Amira already seemed familiar with the man.

"Pade," said Laila, patting her on the shoulder from behind.

Galih was surprised and looked back. Behind him stood up, his arms smiling at him.

"Why Pade is here. Pade won't go inside?" asked Laila who was currently still wearing a mukena. Looks like he just came home from the mosque to perform maghrib prayers.

Amira immediately greeted Galih with a smile. Amira is a very friendly person actually. He wants to smile with anyone even with the person he hates the most.

"Mas Galih, are you here?" ask Amira.

Galih looked at a tall man who was near Amira.

"Who is Amira?" ask Galih.

"He's M. Dion. My friend" replied Amira.

"Oh."

"Mas Dion, this is Mas Galih. Peneya Laila. Even though I wanted a divorce with my husband, but I was still good friends with Mas Galih" said Amira without anything else she covered up from Dion or Galih.

For some reason, Galih's heart felt uneasy when he saw Dion. Dion's gaze at Amira was also different. It seems that Dion's heart is still expecting Amira. It was like reading Dion's mind. Dion must be waiting for Amira's divorce from Farhan.

Dion directly extended his hand towards Galih. Galih immediately welcomed Dion's hand. They then shake hands.

Dion stared at Laila and Amira alternately.

"Laila, Amira, I go home first yes," Dion told Amira and Laila.

"You want to go home, I haven't made you drink" said Amira.

"It's okay. Don't bother. I'm just here to look at you" said Dion.

He threw his face in the other direction. He was still uncomfortable when he saw Amira and Dion.

Duh me why yes, why my heart so bad like this. Who exactly is Dion. Dion is Amira's future husband. Ah, it's impossible. Farhan and Amira are still officially divorced. Amira still has Iddah. There is no way Amira has another candidate. But looking at this man, I think he feels like he has a taste with Amira, Galih's inner being.

Since then Galih has been busy with his own assumptions.

After saying goodbye to Amira, Galih and Laila, Dion walked towards his car. He then got into his car and drove away from Amira's house.

After Dion left, Laila went into his house. While Amira and Galih were still staring at Dion's car until it disappeared from before them.

"Mas, come on in. You haven't been here for a long time. Laila is already kangen, same with you."

She smiled when she saw Amira. After one month Galih did not meet , now Amira looks fatter.

His face also seemed radiant like one who had never had a problem. Amira changed because of Dion.

"Mir, I look at you right now. You're getting a little fat. It seems you are happier with your present life, than your life when it was still the same Farhan," said Farhan who made Amira chuckle.

"Then the Mas. Yes, a lot of people think I'm a little fat. But I think I'm ordinary. Maybe because I can already forget a little bit of the bad memories I had with Mas Farhan."

"That's dong. Men like that, don't think about it anymore. Think of your son and yourself."

"Yes Mas. I also try to live happily without a husband. You how are you, why just came here again. You know, if Laila had asked you to continue from yesterday. He misses saying it's you,"

Galih smiling.

"Well, Laila misses me?"

"Yes. Enter yuk Mas, we chat in the same Laila also "

"Yes Amira. Thanks to ya."

Amira nodded.

Amira and Galih then enter the house.
