La Tahzan, Anisa's
chapter 5

Reno unceasingly looked at anisa, it made the fikri unsettled.

"Anisa, I want to talk to you in the park". said Fikri in between the talks, everyone was surprised.

"then excuse me".why Anisa before following her sister to the back garden. Rio's house is luxurious, even in front or behind its many well-kept gardens there.

"What's wrong sister". asked Anisa, they are now sitting together on a park bench.

"You know this guy so well?".

"Whose men? Brother Reno means that?".

"yes".

"I'm not too close, he just said hello to me".

Anisa turned her face away, hoping that her older sister did not ask more details about Reno, she was afraid that her older sister would be misunderstood if there was something that made her uncomfortable.

"I don't like it, so be careful".

"why is that?". asked Anisa astonished.

"You may know the reason".now the eyes of the fikri become sharper than before.

Anisa misbehaved, she had great difficulty convincing her sister. Fikri always knew what Anisa was thinking.

"Sister, don't make trouble and su'udzon just yet. How's via and ranti doing?". her question diverts the conversation.

"they're good, haven't you called them yet?".

"i forgot, Rio's brother is sick so I didn't take their call".

"oh, don't forget to be careful".

"well, brother, thank you for caring about Anisa". fikri is upset, always thanks to her sister.

anisa's family came home, now Anisa back to care for rio who lay weak helpless.

"i've bathed you, then I pray ashar first yes".

"well, I want to go to bed again".

Anisa then prays ashar, in the middle of her prayers she hopes that rio will recover. Anisa really could not bear to see her husband lying weak.

finished praying, Anisa sat down next to rio. she stroked rio's hair. Because she felt someone stroking her hair, rio woke up.

"i'm fine, don't worry. Where's jeno?". Anisa was shocked when rio woke up.

"He went to school with his friends, your body temperature was getting hotter. We go to the hospital". said Anisa worried.

"It's just an ordinary fever, after all I already have a cure. If you take care of her, God willing, she will be healed".

"well then rest". said Anisa, she also covered it.

The next day......

It was a clear morning, the birds were singing. Now Anisa is washing Rio's body, no matter if at this time Anisa still has not felt the presence of love. Rio is very happy to have a wife as patient as Anisa, although maybe the girl he married has not been able to love her.

Tokks....

Suddenly the sound of the door being knocked.

"Open his door". rio's words weakly, his body still hurts.

"alright". Anisa stopped her task and moved towards the door. When it opened stood Reno who was carrying food on a tray.

Reno smilingly looked at Anisa, Reno's eyes clashing with rio's eyes. Anisa can feel something when the two look at her.yes something that can not be guessed with words.

"i brought breakfast to Rio, after that don't forget to take his medicine".

"thank you brother".

Anisa takes the food from Reno's hands, though she is still confused because of her unusual sister-in-law's breakfast. Reno then leaves, Anisa closes the door back with her feet.

Anisa greeted Rio slowly and attentively. Rio's face looked eager to say something serious but Anisa pretended not to see.

"When are you going to love me?". that question took Anisa by surprise.

"If God wills, then love will grow with its own.

"are you worried about me?". he asked again

"Of course, me and everyone are worried about you".

"i love you Anisa, and will always love you". rio's hand touches Anisa's hand. There was no vibration felt by Anisa.

"sorry I can't love you yet, but God willing I will try to love you".

"I understand". Rio kissed anisa's forehead gently.her eyes were glazed over. Anisa was confused, what would happen to her, so rio was so dramatic.

rio's breakfast is over, now Anisa is moving to take the medicine in the drawer. Empty, the drug is gone. Anisa panic.

"Geez the medicine's gone".

"really?".

"then I'll have bi-ijah buy her". Anisa was about to leave, but in rio's intercept

"Anisa, you're the one who bought the medicine". Rio said in a weak tone. Anisa was surprised she was really confused by the attitude of rio. now she became weaker when she was okay.

"You're okay, right? Your face is so pale". Anisa asked worriedly. Rio was just smiling.

"I'm fine, here's the recipe".

"alright, I'll go first".

Anisa rushed to the pharmacy, seeing that the atmosphere of the house was very quiet. Maybe they are busy. He's taking the rio driver to the pharmacy.

Anisa doesn't know where the nearest pharmacy is, because this isn't her village. Because her driver knew, Anisa could breathe a sigh of relief. The queue at the pharmacy was very long, up to half an hour. Finished with her business, Anisa went home.

when he got home, he saw the people in the house. The last time he saw the house was very quiet this morning. Anisa wondered if she was approaching people who were crying.

"Dad!! don't stay in Jeno!! don't go!!!". Deg, anisa's heart skipped a beat after hearing jeno's scream.

"Anisa wherever you are, the heart of it is that you died alone rio in the room!". cried Julia with increasingly firmer cries.

Anisa remained silent, she felt her whole body in an electric shock.

"what is it?". asked Anisa in a weak tone.

"Rio died". said Adam while hugging his wife who continued to cry.

"Innalilahi wainnailaihi Raji'un, O Allah".Tears escaped flooding Anisa's cheeks, her hands shaking violently. The medicine in his hand fell.

Anisa approaches the lifeless rio, he curses himself. He should not have left at that time, but Allah swt. first took rio.

"so this is the meaning of all your words just now, you want to leave me". said Anisa while crying in Rio's arms.

Everyone was crying, except for Reno, a knotty smile was clearly drawn on her lips. He looked at Rio with a triumphant gaze. A mystery has just begun...
