Tama it feels to lose words with the strange life of Anaya. Tama really did not think that what Anaya experienced was so strange. Tama heard all the word for word Anaya said, Tama saw the falling tears of Anaya. However, as the tears continued to trickle down, Anaya still tried to smile. Fully, Tama knew that it was such a bitter smile. When the heart feels pain and tightness, the face is still trying to smile. Tama then glanced at Anaya.
"Prophey, Ay" said Tama.
Maybe that's the only word you can say. Yes, the word 'patience'. Emphasize on yourself to be patient and wait. Because, not always the trials will come to human life with a lot of strings. A little patience can ward off disaster. A little patience can get people to see what God is saying.
"Yes, Tama .. ouch, so weep. Thank you very much well, have heard my story," Anaya replied.
Tama who saw Anaya sighed, she really felt sympathy for Anaya this time. What way could he do to be able to calm Anaya down and also wipe away the tears of the woman.
"God gives trials that do not exceed our intellect and strength, when we receive trials from God you are strengthened. All there is a silver lining for things to happen in your life" Tama replied.
"Yes .. I hope. It's just, I can't understand it. I was too busy to heal the wounds in my own heart. Until I forget to see what God really is. It's just that when I started to be stable and mentally healthy, Reyhan came back. What else try? Said he wanted to legalize the marriage. As a woman, I have no price. My crown was snatched away, married under the hands, and also being a mother only lasted a few hours," Anaya said as she cried because the injuries and sorrows she faced were really heavy.
"He used to throw me away, now he's back. When the wound in my heart was almost dry, and she came back and saluted him. How can a man do that. A man is trusted for his words, he who has been away for so long from you, he who once doubted the child in your womb, and then he comes back and apologizes, asking to register the marriage officially," reply Anaya.
"Patience yes Aya .. I know that everything you experience is very heavy. I know that," Tama replied.
That sympathy came and grew by itself in Tama's heart. The sympathy because Tama also lost like Anaya. The loss that honestly made Tama also unable to get up. His legs seemed to lose their muscles, just getting up and standing was difficult. However, it was the image that made Tama to rise again. Not immediately, but Tama itself also takes time to rise.
After six months, is Tama's life okay? Haven't. Yeah, not completely okay. There are times when nightmares come, memories of Cellia's death, memories of the burial of his wife's body, and chanting Yasin for the late Tama still do. There was a day where the suffering really hit, making cold sweat just pour out, making the body weak again. However, when Tama saw Citra's face, she was reminded to rise.
"You alone, are you okay now Tam?" ask Anaya later.
"Yes, I'm just trying to be patient and hang on. To be honest, there are times when I am fragile, I run aground, but if I let myself fall into a sea of deep wounds, the mud of life will swallow me up. I will rise up and burn back my spirit of life for Citra. A single parent should have extra resilience, Ay, but what they fear is when they are gone and leave their children alone. That's my fear, Ay .. If I'm constantly sad and have no hope of life, what about Citra? He only has me as a single Papa for him" Tama replied.
Very loud words and confessions. However, as it is. Tama trying to be patient and survive it all is for Citra. The beautiful face of her son, the warm smile of Citra, and the tiny grip of her hand, the look of her eyes that were so clear, as if to be a solace for Tama. Give Tama an extra extra to be patient.
"That's why I salute you so much, Tama .. you are great" Anaya replied sobbing.
Honestly, Anaya really salute. Maybe this Tama is a picture of his father when he was young. Trying to rise and become a single daddy at a young age. Trying to be patient and persevere for his beloved daughter, and walk through life with a new spirit. Really, Anaya was so salute with the figure of Tama.
"You could be .. I salute you. You can hold everything, lose a lot in a relatively short time, even now you should still be at home and rest, but you have to defend to come here. Thanks a lot Anaya .. You are a good woman, very good for Citra. Thank you," he said.
I don't know how long, the two were silent for a moment. Deciphering words they might be able to put together and recite. However, there were still tears on Anaya's face. Tears that hint at her relief from being able to share her life burden with Tama.
Tama then slightly inched, shifted to sit for a moment and approached Anaya.
"Well, can I do something?" ask Tama suddenly.
"Hmm, what?" asked Anaya confusedly of course.
Tama sighed, unable to answer and say what she was about to do, but quickly the man hugged Anaya. Yes, a hug that was responded to was confused and shocked, until it felt Anaya became gasped for it.
Anaya's two hands fell, unable to return the embrace Tama gave him. This was the hug from someone else, other than her father for the first time for Anaya in almost a year and a half. Anaya sobbed, while Tama's hand began to give a swab at Anaya's head. The swab that gently caressed the strands of hair on Anaya's head.
"Thank you for sharing with me .. Thank you for believing and entrusting me with that weird story of your life ... I hope that after this dark cloud and that rainbow without hue will vanish in your life. You've done your best, Aya .. you've fought and defended very well."
Tama said all those words sincerely from her heart. It feels like being trusted by others is so much fun. Until Tama also prayed for Anaya, hopefully a happy day will soon come and approach Anaya. The days of grief and tears will completely pass.
"Tama .. hiks ...."
In fact, Anaya was sobbing, not only because of Tama's embrace, but also every word that Tama had just spoken really touched her heart. Anaya also agreed that dark cloudiness and rainbows without hue would disappear in his life. Anaya also wants to be happy.
Tama still hugged Anaya, and put a swab on her head. Even Tama closed her eyes. When all the words and words of spirit are spoken so much, then the powerful way to sympathize in the suffering of others is to embrace it.
Maybe more than five minutes of the hug happened, which unraveled the hug was not Tama or Anaya, but Citra who woke up and cried. So reflexively, Tama breathed a heavy sigh and began to break down her hands that originally hugged Anaya.
If the hug both felt comfortable, now it is precisely when the warm embrace was released. Both came back equally awkward. Anaya who lowered her face and put her hair behind her ears. While Tama who immediately stood up to hold Citra.
"The image is up?" tanya Tama who has fondled Citra.
However, Citra's cry has not subsided. The baby was still crying. Then Anaya stood up and opened her hands.
"here ... Let the image be the same as me. Maybe he was thirsty, I gave ASI first for Citra well," said Anaya who did not dare to look at Tama's face.
Tama nodded her head faintly, "Yes .. yes already, I came out well ... Aya, thank you very much well," said Tama suddenly and handed her little daughter to Anaya.
Sympathy for the story and experience slipped for both, presenting an embrace of spontaneity. It's just that, all came back to being awkward when the hug had come off. So, where will this story be anchored? Is it true that slowly growing feelings can heal wounds?
