At the same time, in the simple house of Grandma Seruni. Some people came to the small house. The neighbors know how Mila's income is not much, sufficient for the needs of his two younger siblings. Not to mention the needs of her ailing grandmother. Someone gave money to Lala, someone brought a pot. There are also those who send vegetables to cook. They did that not out of respect for Grandma Seruni. They all also knew how Grandma Seruni treated Mila. They gave it out of sympathy for Lala and Mila.
A pick-up car stopped in front of Grandma Seruni's residence. Black cars look dirty and dusty. The owner of the car is a man who is in his early 50s. His dull face meant he was tired after a long trip.
The man looked at the house that had not changed since the last time he left. Still leaves a simple impression. A deep longing he felt.
He slowly entered the courtyard of the house. He felt some people were whispering about him. I hope it's just his feelings.
The man knocked on the door of Grandma Seruni's house. The door was opened by Eva. There was an old man coming. Greetings may Eva greet the guests who come.
"Assalamualaikum Bu is this Bu Seruni's house?
"What does sir really need?"
"Can you please call Bu Seruni.
" Father come with me" Eva invited the guest to Seruni's grandmother's place.
Arriving at Seruni's grandmother's room, Eva said there were guests looking for her.
" Accliova .... Mama!"
"Ro .. him!" pekik.
"Dad!" Sarah hugged her father.
"This .... Mila, yes." guess the guy.
"It's Sarah yeah,"
"Sarah, in your father's eyes her only child was Mila" said Seruni's grandmother.
"Mom, forgive me." Rohim prostrated at the feet of his mother-in-law.
"Why are you home!" Said one of the residents.
"At least have nothing, so come back again." said another.
"Hoooh, he made Aminah suffer."
The man was silent. She came home because she missed her three children. Missing home, it was enough that he was hanging in the place of people, looking for the uncertain. Maybe what he's looking for has forgotten he's still got kids. Along the way he was busy driving, fortunately his boss allowed himself to bring a car to Bengkulu.
"Spirit!" the man looked towards the owner of the voice.
"Boru!" Rohim hugged his best friend.
Boro. There was no warm welcome from the man.
"Why did you come back?"
"Because my house is here, Boro. Aminah and my three children are where I come home. I miss them."
"After everything you've done to them?"
"Boro, you know my departure has a reason. You know ..."
"But you don't know that Mila is affected by all this. You did not know that Aminah also suffered from your departure. She conceived fighting on her own, without a husband. Raised three girls. In the midst of your mother-in-law's hatred.
And now without guilt you're back just out of longing!"
"I want to see Aminah."
"Well, I died six months ago."
"And now Mila who became the backbone of the family amid the hatred instilled by her grandmother."
"I'm sorry." Rohim lowered his head.
"Sorry will not bring Aminah back to life. I hope your return can mend the relationship with your children." Boro went straight into the house of Seruni grandmother.
Rohim follows Boro into the house. Not as a family but as a guest. Rohim felt the cold attitude of the people towards him. Only Sarah greeted him happily. Not happy to be with his father. Because he needs his father as his marriage guardian.
Lala also chose to shy away from her father. He often heard the ugliness of his father from the people around him. She remembers Seruni's grandmother hating her brother just because of her father. That was already a negative point for Lala. The teenage girl chose to go into the room instead of being close to her father.
"Lala meet dad first!" call Sarah.
There is no lawfulness. Sarah finally decided to return to the living room. Mixed with his father, Eva and Bones Boro.
"Who are you going to call?" ask Eva.
"Sir Anjas." replied Sarah.
"Oh God Sarah. If bucin does not delay. What you should have told me was Mila not Anjas."
"All right, Eva's sister."
"Yes, my dear Eva. That's my phone. Why on the serobot." protested Sarah.
"Yes because I can't believe you're going to call Mila. I'm sure you'll call Anjas first."
"Where did Mila go?" ask Eva.
"Go with Danu like her." guess Sarah.
"Owh, I'm calling Danu guys." Eva still controls Sarah's phone.
"Let's just Eva's sister. It would be sweet if they were both."
"When it's Ammar, there's no way he'll move to another heart. He's not you who likes to have people." accuse Eva.
"Have .... you guys even fight in front of guests" said Bones Boro.
Rohim fell silent as they called himself a guest. She was indeed a guest because this was her in-laws house. While his house with Aminah is still a complex of this house. Rohim left the living room. Standing staring at a house that looks like his attic. A woman was hanging clothes in the attic.
"Why is our house occupied by someone else?"
"Because it's been sold by Seruni's grandmother, om." Eva spoke Rohim.
"Why can it be sold? are they short of cost? it's not like I've put money on Boro."
"That's me not understanding, Om."
...*****...
"Son't you realize?"
Vishnu stood in front of Danu who had almost dodged when he returned to the hospital. His hands were trying to help the man lean on the hospital headboard. Head shakes.
"And I told you not to be forced. Didn't you just finish chemotherapy last month."
Danu grimaced while holding her head. He had a long illness. But so far he can handle it. Moreover, he always routinely took drugs and chemotherapy.
"Vishnu, how bad am I?"
"Sister is already stage two. So it's still on standby. If your sister is tired, don't force it.
This is all the activity you want to follow. Continue when you can quality time for yourself. That brother can't do much of anything heavy."
"If I don't find a bone marrow donor, will I die?"
"The matter of dying or not is not my power, brother. What is my business is that my brother must be in the spirit of treatment. The chance of recovery is still there."
Danu heard a phone ringing in the nightstand of her room.
"That's Danu's cell phone. I accidentally put it on the nightstand because it started ringing earlier."
"Beep?"
"Yes, Sarah's name keeps ringing on your phone."
"Sara? Please get me my phone."
Danu called Sarah back. He guessed that something happened to Grandma Seruni. After a few minutes, Sarah finally picked up her phone.
"What's up, Sarah?"
"This is Danu's sister just like Mila, right? we had an inactive phone. Where the rain is, I have a bad feeling, sis."
"So Mila went to Vika's house, she said there was a celebration there."
"Vika! okay thanks for the info, brother"
Danu immediately took his jacket. Then borrow Vishnu's motorbike.
"Where else is Danu going?" prevent Vishnu.
"I have some urgent business!"
"But brother is still recovering."
"Please allow me this time, Vishnu" beg Danu.
Vishnu took a deep breath. He also nodded small. Arguing with Danu is also free. He will definitely lose.
"OK,"
"Thank you, Vishnu."
