Husband Who (But) Considered
The Eps 110

That morning Jenny, Iqbal and Gita and Billal fly to the town of J to take Gio to his final resting place. And a few minutes ago, the plane they were on had just taken off.

Flights from city B to city J only take about an hour. Jenny hopes to still see Opanya's body. So too with Billal. For a long time he had not seen his uncle. Last time was Jenny's wedding, and it was just for a little while.

“Honey, calm down. I'm sure Opa Gio is happy there with Oma.” Iqbal said to calm his wife who had been sobbing ever since.

Jenny is devastated by the news of the passing of Opa Gio. He remembered that when he was a child, he was very close to his eyes. Even Jenny was like a golden granddaughter to him. Remembering herself is her only granddaughter. However, Opa Gio also never discriminated Jenny with Barra, the older brother. It's just that Opa Gio feels that the granddaughter is very much to be protected, so it's as if Jenny is a favorite granddaughter.

“Mas, I'm sorry we didn't make a quick visit to the city of J. This is how it is now. Opa has left me.” said Jenny.

“Don't say it like that. This is all the destiny of God. I'm sure Opa there must also be happy to see his grandchildren have lived happily. Do not blame yourself like this.” said Iqbal.

Then Jenny leaned on her husband's shoulder to get some peace. The Gita has been sleeping since. Iqbal could only gently rub his wife's head. Honestly, he was also saddened by this news, although Iqbal was not too close to Opa Gio. But according to the story from his father, Opa Gio is a very friendly and wise man. In addition, Opa Gio is a typical loyal man. It was proven he was willing to live alone with his only son, Vito, after the death of his wife when Vito was just one year old.

While a couple who were sitting opposite to Iqbal's seat, also looked sad. Especially Billal. Billal has been silent since. He also regretted that since he was met by his uncle three years ago, until now he has not been able to do good to his uncle. It is precisely he who is still indebted to his uncle because it has been helped when his life almost drifted.

“Mas, already. Don't be too sad like this. we just pray that Uncle Gio is happy there.” Said Lidya while gently grasping her husband's hand.

“I'm so sorry, Honey. I have not been able to please the uncle I had considered as a replacement for the late Papa.” Answer Billal.

“Mas don't say that. All this is God's destiny.” Lidya.

Billal looked at his wife while showing her smile. He's very lucky to have a wife like Lidya. A woman who is very caring, caring, loving, and also always calming when she is in a state of not okay like this.

“Thank you, Darling.” Billal.

A few moments later the plane they were on

already landed. Then they immediately took a taxi to the funeral home.

Jenny returned to tears as the taxi was almost at her parents' house. As for Gita who did not understand, she looked confused to see her Mama continue to cry.

Vito's residence, Jenny's parents now look crowded. Many mourners from among Vito's business partners and Barra were also present to say his condolences. In her heart, Jenny was very grateful that Opa Gio's body had not been buried.

“Mama!” jenny shouted when she saw her mother sitting next to her father who was not far from the body of Opa Gio.

“Honey, relax. Let's just pray that Opa Gio is calm there.” Kay said as she hugged Jenny.

Iqbal greeted his two in-laws in turn. He also mourned the death of Opa Gio. After that, Billal. He hugged his cousin, Vito. Vito also felt that Billal was hit with the news of his father's death.

Kay saw a familiar woman standing behind Billal just standing still. Maybe later he will ask Billal directly why Lidya also went with him.

Now Jenny approached Opanya's body which will soon be buried. Jenny held back her cries for a moment while kissing her Opanya cheek for the last time. So too with Billal. The man stared long at that pale face with eyes that would not open again. In his heart Billal prayed for the happiness of his uncle there later. He hoped his uncle would meet his parents there.

In a few moments the body will be sent to the cemetery. All the big families also took Gio's body to the final resting place. Except for Carissa, Jenny's sister-in-law for having to look after both her twins and Gita.

Finished burying the body of Gio, the Vito residence still looks crowded some people who just came to defend condolences. Jenny who just got out of the car, she got into the house first. Because he felt bad. But it turns out Jenny's head suddenly felt very dizzy and her eyes twitched.

Brucks

Fortunately, Jenny did not fall to the floor. Because there was someone who quickly caught his body and directly carried it.

“Jenny!” kay shouted in surprise when he saw his son faint.

While Iqbal who had just entered the house had revealed his cold face when he saw his wife fainted and was in the arms of the rival, Xavier.

Xavier breaks down Jenny's body on the living room couch. The man was also worried when he saw Jenny's pale face. Carissa who was in the room was also very surprised when she saw Jenny had just been held by her brother.

“Jenny why, Brother?” ask Carissa to worry.

“I don't know. Suddenly he fell unconscious.” Answer Xavier.

Xavier slowly regressed his steps when he saw Iqbal approaching his wife with his cold face. And soon Kay came by to bring some wind oil to Jenny.

“Let Iqbal only, Ma.” Iqbal said taking the oil from Kay's hand.

Instead of smearing oil, Iqbal took his wife into his room. Somehow Iqbal would not be willing if Xavier looked at his wife. While the person in the middle room was quite surprised to see the attitude of Iqbal.

“How is Jenny doing?” ask Kay who just walked into Jenny's room.

“Not yet conscious, Ma. Maybe this is the effect of pregnancy, plus Jenny who is exhausted.” Answer Iqbal.

“What? Jenny is pregnant?” kay asked in disbelief and Iqbal nodded.

Kay is very happy to hear the news that her daughter is now pregnant with her second child. Then Kay decided to get out of Jenny's room and let her son rest. There are still many guests in his house.
