"Ssttt ...” Zahra put an index finger on her lips as her husband approached Tina's room.
“He's not Bira's mahrom, Dek. You let two people of opposite sex in one room?” abid asked in disbelief for letting Tina be alone with the bule man that Abid knew was only his boss.
“But, Bira wants to eat with him, Mas.”
Zahra lets Jhon into Tina's room. Shortly after Jhon greeted the beautiful woman who looked very fragile, Tina responded, even now Tina also wanted to eat from the spoon given by the man.
“Again, I did not close the door of his room tightly. See there's still a gap, right? We can also see they are not being like – of sorts,” argued Zahra.
Arrived – arrived Arafah also approached the couple. “Yes, Mas Abid. Let alone. The important thing is that Bira wants to eat. from the morning of her stomach ga to the contents of food, even from the time Abi entered the hospital.”
Abid was silent. There were a lot of questions in his head, but he was confused where to start. Abid can see the closeness of his sister with his boss. To him, that closeness was unnatural. And he can also see the unusual radiance of the international barbaric boss's view of his younger brother.
“You want to go to the hospital, Fah?” ask Zahra to her sister-in-law.
“Iya, Ma'am. Change with Madam Munah, yesterday she took care of Mother at night, now I.”
Zahra nodded. “If tomorrow Ummi has not come home, let tomorrow Mrs Zahra who guards the night.”
Arafah also nodded. “Iya, Ma'am. Then I walk first.”
Arafah kissed Abid and his wife. Likewise with Alif who will deliver the wife. Alif only said goodbye to Abid and Zahra, but not to kiss the back of their hands.
“Heart – Liver, Lif. Do not speed the car,” Abid told Alif.
“Iyo, Mas.”
“Already, there! Meet Gus Mus again,” said Zahra while encouraging her husband.
Abid returned to the living room and accompanied Mustofa and Al. The plan is that, for the next seven days, Mustofa and Al will be here to oversee studies in order to pray for Uthman. Randy will return to Jakarta tomorrow. Because he's still tied to work there.
“One more bribe, Darling.” Jhon thrust one last thrust right in front of Tina's mouth.
Tina chewed the food that was still left in her mouth until it was swallowed and opened the mouth again.
“Alhamdulillah, finally out too,” said Jhon saw the food in the plate was clean not left. “I'm happy, you want to eat.”
Tina had not yet opened her voice. Since then he has only obeyed by opening his mouth and receiving a bribe from John. After her mouth was empty, Tina drank the drink that Jhon gave her. He saw Jhon so painstakingly taking care of it.
Jhon's smile continued to be reviewed, because a little succeeded in making Tina no longer silent with a blank look.
“Jhon.”
“Ya.”
Jhon looked back at Tina, after putting down the glass that Tina had drunk earlier.
Jhon scrunched his forehead. “You blame me for everything that happened?”
Tina quiet. He did not nod and neither did he shake.
“All my fault,” he said. “I'm the most guilty of this. I'm just a country girl who ran away from home and worked in a big city, then got bullied by her boss.”
Kepale Jhon shook his head. “No, Dear. It's not like that. I love you sincerely. Even if the first incident happened because of circumstances, but this time it was not. You know exactly how I love you, Tina.”
“But all this is wrong, Jhon. It's wrong!”
“No, Tina. This is not wrong.” John held both shoulders of Tina. “After this, I'll talk to your brother. I'll keep marrying you, because I promised Abi.”
Tina who was down, now looked up. He looked into Jhon's eyes. “Don't say – call Abi's name again, Jhon. I was hurt to hear it. Calling that name reminds me of my myriad mistakes.”
“Sayang.” Jhon called Tina lirih.
“Jhon, this is the last one. This is our last closeness. If you really love me, then stay away from me.”
Duars
Like being struck by lightning, Jhon sculpted. Both hands that were originally attached to Tina's shoulder were shed.
“What do you mean?”
Tina reiterated. “If you are right – really love me, then stay away.”
“Tina, I just want to grant your request. Don't you want to get married? You want me to be in charge?”
Tina shakes. “Not again.”
John was getting upset. “Do you want to accept the Al? A self-styled Ustad who wants to snatch you away from me in a sneaky way?”
Tina's eyes were rounded. “Do not blame others for our mistakes, Jhon.”
“But he who makes our way complicated.”
“Marriage is worship and we have begun that worship in a sinful way. So this is how God punishes us, Jhon.”
Head Jhon again – again shook his head. “You will leave me and marry another man?”
Tina also shook her head. “No. I won't accept anyone. Not you and not Mas Al.”
Jhon's body is weakened. His back immediately leaned against the wall of the chair he was sitting on. It feels all efforts wasted – in vain, although no effort wasted – in vain. Jhon has obtained Abi's blessing, only circumstances that make Tina must recover.
Tina needed calm in an unspecified amount of time. He was right – really wanted to be alone without any bond of love with anyone. As for the soul mate, let fate bring it later. For now, he just wants to improve himself again, so that in nature there the Abi does not get the punishment of what he did here.
