Maryati... Is True Love Struggle, Love And Devotion
Chapter 96 True love exists

The day changed, the body of As weakened, even to get out of bed felt so very heavy.

Sari who realized it decided to keep As in the room, starting from cleaning the body, changing clothes to feed and put diapers on As.

Already 3 days, As just quietly lying in bed, even to eat alone he must be fed, drink using a straw, wearing a diaper, and even to eat, and to clean his body As only in a rag using a small towel and warm water, the same thing that Sari had done to his mother at that time, now he did it again to his father.

The only hope was one, to be able to see again the smile loose from his father's face, next to his wings were left.

But maybe destiny says something else,

This morning, Sari saw something bad was happening to As, when Sari entered the room carrying breakfast and warm water to bathe As.

Slowly he climbed up on the bed, approaching the closed As.

His heart was pounding irregularly, immediately the atmosphere of the room felt very hot causing sweat spots to begin to pour out on his forehead.

There was a great fear that suddenly ruled his heart, his trembling hands touching his father's chest making sure the beat was still there.

"Huhff.... Thank goodness..."

Sari breathed a sigh of relief while the gurgle was still there.

At once he anchored his head in the chest of As, hugging it with tears.

"Pa... Breakfast yes,"

His face while stroking As's cheek.

Slowly As opened his eyes, he looked at Sari.

Sari dipped some fresh bread in warm tea and then fed it the mouth of As, Sari waited for a while to give As a chance to swallow the bread in her mouth, but for a few minutes, she waited, when Sari checked the mouth of As, the bread was still in the mouth,

It makes Sari remember the incident when he greeted Mar on his last day, the same thing happened, when Mar was also unable to swallow as happened to As today.

Suddenly the fear of loss appeared again, even this time it felt more painful.

Sari rushes to finish her feed on As, she takes the bread back out of As's mouth and immediately cleans As's body, changes diapers, and changes clothes.

After everything is done, Sari meets Win in the room.

"Sister, my hunch is bad.."

"You mean??"

Win asked confused.

"Papa can't swallow food anymore"

Evidently.

"Did we call all our brothers and let them get together?"

Ask Win again, while walking towards the As room.

"So, I'm also confused.Let's see until noon, won't they come home tomorrow, the day after the 40th anniversary of Mama"

Answer Sari.

"Yes, too, they have bought tickets, we pray, and nothing happens"

Win started reading Yasin's surah beside As.

Sari came out of the room, met her son who had just woken up and began serving her toddler starting from bathing, feeding her breakfast and accompanying her to play.

In the middle of playing with her baby, Sari decided to call her husband to inform him about his father's condition.

"Assynoltom... Well,,, "

"Yes Bun, Walaikum salam... Again where are you the heroes of Daddy?"

"It's the same mother messing around, Dad... Papa already can not swallow food, how well you should.from earlier this feeling does not feel good.. Can you come home?"

"Oh my God, is that so? Gini aja, for sure you must stay calm, keep an eye on Papa's condition, tomorrow morning Dad comes home, but I try tonight can go home, baby.."

"Yes Well, Mommy just wants to ngabarin it, Dad be careful ya...."

"Yes, this is Dad again working, close up Bun, Assalamualaikum"

"Greetings hall"

Sari hung up her phone call, then typed a message on Eni.

"Yuk, can you come here? Papa can't swallow any more food"

Shortly thereafter a reply message was received.

"Yes, wait a minute.."

In 30 minutes,

Eni came in a hurry.

"Where's Dek?! How Papa, "

Sari pointed towards the room.

With a quick step Eni towards the As room, followed by Sari.

"Win, what's Papa's condition??"

Eni asked as soon as she got into the room.

"Papa no longer seems to respond to our words Yuk"

"O Allah..What about the others, have they been contacted??"

Eni asked in panic.

Sari shakes.

Ask Eni again.

"Yes, I also think like that. But looking at Papa's condition now, I can't bear Yuk.."

Answer Sari.

"Just let's call our other brothers, how will their advice be."

"Sir, I have to go to work, today the hotel has a party order, I can't skip it, there's no substitute chef today, I'll be home in the afternoon we'll take Papa to the hospital"

Said Win.

"Sir, you hold the cell phone, tell me all the progress, I have to go back to the store, I was freaking out, and I just left no one to look after."

Eni.

Sari nodded, obeying what her two brothers said, even though her heart was raging in confusion and uneasiness.

Now he sat in front of the door of the room looking at his father who was lying still, slowly his tears flowed, remembering his Mother's Almarhumah who had gone first.

"Ma. after the departure of Mama, Papa seemed to lose the spirit for his life Ma.. Mama knows, it's because Papa loves Mama so much, even more than his own life because Mama is Papa's true love.

You are both wings on my back, flapping when I am tired and weak, so that I can fly again,

But after Mama's departure, this heart was crushed to a crumble Ma. Next to my wing was broken, I could not fly again with just one wing, but I could still walk Ma, next to the wing was weakened, he was wounded could it be that I was able to stand Ma..."

Ratap Sari watered while rubbing her wet cheeks.

Now He approached As, rubbing the sweaty forehead of As.

His instincts say As will leave him, his tears pour out making him decide to call all his brothers.

With tears in his eyes, he reported their father's condition.

Ana who got the news immediately rushed back home no matter the train ticket they had bought for departure tomorrow.

Hen who came home using the sea route, can only cry, because he can not go home suddenly, because tomorrow morning can just leave, while Vin sobbed because he could not return home.

Just as Sari hung up the phone, there was a coughing sound coming from the direction of the As room, as fast as lightning Sari turned her head and ran up to the As bed.

A deep breath with the LA LAHA ILAHA ILLALLAH which sounded very slowly from the mouth of As led him away to face the Divine.

Sari was transfixed, her lips trembling her tears rushing down..

Before Finally he hugged As, crying alone in As without a sound.

The tightness, stinging and poignancy mixed together created an overwhelming sense of pain slicing through his heart.

His body was limp, feeling light like cotton.

In part of her consciousness, she looked at her phone and went back to contacting all her siblings and husband.

"Papa's gone...Hicks.hiks..."

His voice sobbed, there was a roar, a cry and a scream across there, before Sari finally turned off her phone and re-captured her father with tears that did not stop flowing.

In the midst of her crying and sobbing,

"Mother... Why cry?"

Ask her son who was suddenly nearby.

Sari hugged her son with a hiccup.

"The file is gone, baby... I'm leaving us"

Sari replied sobbing as she hugged and kissed the head of her son who was now crying with her.

Sari folded her As hand over her chest.

"Pa.. Papa's wish is achieved, now Papa is following Mama. Your love is so eternal really live while living... Mama's waiting, you're in Heaven, happy Pa..."

Sari kissed As's forehead which still feels warm.

"Ma... My wings are no longer weak, even now they are completely broken..

Now I myself Ma, can not fly anymore, and feel to still be able to step despite being trained, yet,

Ma's..Pa.. Thank you for being the greatest parent to us your daughter's sons, teaching us to feel enough despite our shortcomings, it taught us about the struggles and journeys of life that are precious and extraordinary even about loyalty and the meaning of true love.

True love truly exists and you prove it to the world."

Sari wiped her tears, took a deep breath and tried to be strong in the midst of her fragility.
