Love Lanterns
CHAPTER 125 “Getisah”
“The woman is indeed easily sensitized and injured. Because a woman's heart is made with a million gentleness. It is easy to feel the name of heartache, but it is different from a strong woman of faith. Because they are the women who will be able to resist that feeling to strengthen her faith so as not to waver.”
...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...
The battle was none other than the Yali tribe with the Ngalik tribe. And the center of the war problem was only because of the sense of disbelief from Mr. Sowa for the death of his son Sega. So that many people who defended Pak Sowa and the war that resulted in the death of the citizens.
“Arghhh..”
The second victim was one of the residents and immediately died in that place. Members of the police, Guard and Keenan feel overwhelmed to face the war is quite fierce.
“Whatever way we have to break up this war, Guard. Prepare your fire filled with rubber bullets.” Keenan is always on guard, his eyes are always on standby.
Keenan and Garda began shooting at the feet of the residents, making it difficult to stand up. Because for them the foot is the right target for that moment.
“Dorr... Dorr... Dorr...”
“Arghhh..”
“Brukk..”.
“Captain!” pekik Guard.
Three shots at once hit Keenan's body, but could not confirm where the bullet had entered his body. But surely Keenan collapsed in front of the Guard. Because at that time the two were preparing to end the inter-tribal warfare immediately.
Garda felt thin-ketir when he accidentally saw some young people who were behind a tree lurking. And when Keenan took one step forward, there was a firefight from the young man.
“Kapten hold! Everything will be fine, I beg you!”
Keenan was still able to smile as Garda felt the fear about his life.
“Garda. I wanted... Aletha also looks bright like this if only I fall and no longer beside her..”.
“Stop, Ke! Don't say it like that, I'm sure you can definitely survive.” Tears just shed and wet the cheeks of the Guard.
Inter-tribal warfare still occurs and as a result fatal, two residents have been declared dead on the spot, six people injured including one member of the police and also Keenan. Because the rough situation had been taken advantage of by the young man there.
...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...
“Astaghfirullah hal azim,” said Aletha flabbergasted.
The knife that Aletha had used for surgery suddenly fell and momentarily made silence in the gripping room.
‘Yes Allah, eliminate the anger in my heart. Come Aletha, focus!’ aletha said in her heart.
“Focus back, Your anesthesiologist should keep and control. And Doctor Safira, you have to help me by focusing your eyes. Please your cooperation!” aletha said firmly.
Aletha continued the operation, because for her the life of her patients was the main one. Even though his own heart was feeling uneasy, it did not know what made his heart feel that way.
After three hours of surgery that can be said to be quite large, it is finally over. With the permission of Allah Aletha and her team were successful in the operation that day, so they could all breathe a sigh of relief after a few minutes ago there was a small incident that made the operation slightly delayed.
“Kak Aletha, what's wrong? Is there a problem?” ask Safira gently.
“I don't know for sure what it is, Sapphira. All of a sudden.. My heart feels restless.” Aletha poured out a slight taste that made her unsettled.
“The woman is indeed easily sensitized and injured. Because a woman's heart is made with a million gentleness. It is easy to feel the name of heartache, but it is different from a strong woman of faith. Because they are the women who will be able to resist that feeling to strengthen her faith so as not to waver.”
“It would be better for Aletha to go to the mushola, InsyaAllah..Kis heart Aletha will feel calm if dhikr.” Safira nodded, reassuring Aletha who was feeling uneasy with an erratic feeling.
“You are right Safira, yes then I want to go to mushola first! And the patient who has to visit today I leave it to you, please handle everything.”
Safira nodded, Aletha stepped up and headed to the dressing room first after which headed to the mushola.
“Alhamdulillah, it's been much better. But... Why do I keep thinking of Aa Keenan? Did something happen there?” aletha asked in her heart.
Since her mood changed Aletha became no appetite and even the food that had been ordered in the hospital canteen was only stirred by her. Makes Arga feel strange when she sees Aletha who is not as usual.
“Assalamu'alaikum, sister Aletha.” Arga greeted Aletha after being near Aletha.
‘Kak Aletha why? Why daydream like that, but never before. Even my greetings were not answered. Strange, need to ask.’
“Sir Aletha, assalamu'alaikum.” Back Arga said his greetings to the umpteenth, this time Arga patted the back of Aletha's hand gently.
“Ah Yes, a... Arga, what's up?”
Aletha was aghast, at once her daydream had dissolved in an instant. And the presence of Arga who had already been kepo would not go without knowing what happened to Aletha.
And Aletha admitted her uneasiness but had already calmed her mood a little after dhikr. And while the small talk was still going on with Arga suddenly Aletha's phone rang.
“Assalamu'alaikum, Ms. Laila. What's wrong Miss Laila called me?”
“Wa'alaikumsalam, son Aletha. I'm sorry if I've interrupted your busy life, but I just want to tell you if Alina keeps crying. I feel confused how to.”
“What? Yes, yes, Mom. I'll be home soon, but I have to ask another doctor to replace me later. Bu Laila wait a minute ya!”
Aletha said goodbye to Arga for not being able to continue the conversation between them. And Arga quite understands Aletha who has become a young mother who still looks beautiful.
With a fast pace Aletha drove her car to get home soon. However, the afternoon suddenly jammed, thus making Aletha trapped inside. There is no other choice but to wait.
After twenty minutes of travel, it finally arrived. Aletha immediately washed her hands and grabbed Alina in her cradle and did not forget to give ASI for Alina to grow up to be a smart child.
Alina was still crying, but it had improved a lot. Her crying slowly subsided after feeling the presence of her mother's formidable figure. But Alina's behavior was not as usual, this time she remained awake and both eyes were still awake so brightly.
“Alina darling, why the hell is Nak not sleeping anymore? Usually already sleeping when you have a shower in the afternoon and drink milk.” Again a sense of uneasiness entered into Aletha's soul.
Aletha kept holding Alina and recited the sholawat to Alina to fall asleep again. However, Alina's two eyes were still wide awake.
‘Yes Allah, what's wrong with Alina? And why does my heart also feel such erratic sadness?’
“Alina dear, yes already if you do not want to sleep. Then Alina now go with Grandma Laila huh! Mommy wants to pray maghrib first.” Aletha tried to smile and then kissed the cheek of Alina who had been soaked with a weight of seven kilos.
Aletha takes ablution water that can be refreshing for everyone who is able to take advantage of the flowing water with full purity. After that Aletha stretched a long prayer rug to perform fardhu prayer five times.
“Assalamu'alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh,” Aletha said at the final atakhiat.
“Yes Allah O Our Lord, again most merciful and almighty of all. And only you can treat the restlessness that rests in this heart. I beg you as a child, protect my parents at all times.”
“Yes Allah O my Lord. Give your protection to my husband who is on duty. If indeed this feeling of worry You show because of it. then heal for him.”.
Aletha always guaranteed every prayer she prayed. Maybe all this time Aletha was not a pious woman, but at least she understood what to do if the time came to face God and fulfill her vocation through the sweet cry of Adhan.
After praying Maghrib Aletha down the stairs then headed to the kitchen and prepared the dishes purchased earlier on the plate.
“Goodbye, Mom!” aletha was friendly.
Ms. Laila just nodded, after which the dinner was being held with a sense of unparalleled service. For a man is to be grateful for what God has given him. Because humans do not have to be grandiose because they want to get something more and more.
Aletha put Alina to sleep after having dinner with Laila's mother. And not long after, Alina fell asleep so fast. Back the shadow of Keenan dancing in his eye pelupuk.
Seriate...
I'm sorry, his eyes are so sticky to continue. Please understand!
