My Killer Lecturer's
Visiting the Maira

I saw Zein coming back from the nurse's room.

"How's Zein?" my many.

"Safe, Brother. Zein has sent Fatwa to the nurse. But, they suggested that we go later, after the nurse change," Zein replied.

"What time?" my many.

"He said, after magrib. Maybe around 6 o'clock," Zein replied.

I glanced at the watch. In a moment, the time indicator stops at 6. I also took the initiative to go to the mosque now, so that later I can replace Zein when the nurse change arrives.

"Sister to the mosque now, yes Zein. Let's make the nurse change, brother's here, "

"Yes, can brother. Let Zein wait here first" Zein replied.

After that, I came out of the ICU waiting room to go to the mosque to pray magrib.

I saw azan magrib sound as soon as I arrived on the ground floor. With a small run, I immediately headed to the hospital mosque so as not to miss congregational prayer.

A few minutes passed. Don't forget I say do'a every time I finish my prayer. After folding my face and put it in a small cupboard in the corner of the room, I immediately returned to the ICU room.

I arrived in the room to coincide with the change of the guard nurse. After the patient visited and explained the medical record today, I finally said goodbye to leave for a while. Surely, before that, I leave the Fatwa to the nurse who just entered the night watch.

"So don't wait in the lobby, Zein wants to pray magrib first" Zein said.

I'm nodding. After arriving on the ground floor, Zein and I separated. I went ahead to wait for Zein in the lobby. While Zein went to the mosque behind the hospital to fulfill his obligations.

Half an hour waiting, Zein finally arrived at the lobby. "We're leaving now, brother?" ask Zein.

"Faster is better, Zein. Let's not go home too late, either" I replied.

Zein nodded. We finally walked to the parking lot. After boarding the car, Zein started the car engine and started driving it out of the courtyard of the five-story hospital building.

"We eat first, brother? The trip to the villa is quite far, you know," said Zein.

"Later Zein, come home from there. Brother is afraid of the kemaleman to arrive at the villa," I replied.

"Are you not hungry?" ask Zein.

"You alone?" I asked back.

"No, I ate bread this afternoon. So it's still full" replied Zein.

"Well, we'll eat Zein later. After all our business is done," I said.

"Yes, it's up to Brother" continued Zein.

Zein then increased the speed of his car to arrive soon. Not nothing, the distance between the hospital and the villa bang Rizal was so far. The sooner we arrived at the villa, the sooner we returned to the hospital.

After passing two hours of travel, we finally arrived at the villa bang Rizal. With a face of sumringah, Ida welcomed my arrival.

"God, Miss. Why didn't Miss tell me that she wanted to come here? Know that, Ida cook a lot to welcome Miss," said Ida.

I smiled in response to Ida's words. "By the way, Maira where is Da?" I asked Ida.

"Maira's asleep, Non. Just closed," replied Ida.

"Well, what a pity. Though, I want to meet Maira," I replied.

"Eh, no, Da," prevent me, "later, let me just look at the door" I replied.

"But, Non ... Ida sure, Maira would be happy to see Non here," Ida said.

"Udah, no need Da. Anyway, I'm just here to talk to you, Da," I said.

"Speaking with Ida? About what, Non?" ask Ida to be confused.

"Yes, Da. I'm just curious. What was that afternoon that Rahadi called, you?" my many.

"Kok, Non Chi knows?" ida hatch.

"It just so happened that Rahadi spoke outside. I want to not hear all of his words. Is this about Maira, Da?" my question, be careful.

"Yes, Non. It's about Maira. Earlier, I tried asking Rahadi about Maira's upbringing. You see, me and Dad want to go home, Non. It's not that I don't want to take care of Maira, but my life and my father's life are hard enough. I don't want Maira to have a bleak enough future because of our inability to provide a proper education" Ida said, "but in reality ..." Ida stopped her sentence.

"In reality, Maira's grandfather and grandmother refused to babysit Maira, right?" my answer.

Ida just nodded, confirming my answer. "Honest Ida confused, Non. Ida herself did not have to give up Maira to the orphanage. But the father said, it was the best way than Maira had to hang out with us. In our hometown, we live in a rented house. We need to work together to meet our needs. And Maira? Who would Maira live with if we worked in the fields. I can't leave Maira alone at home. However, I also can't let Maira come to work hot-hot with us. Truly Miss, I am really in a dilemma with Maira's problem," Ida said at length.

"Let's just say, Da. Tomorrow I will meet Rahadi and Wati to ask permission to take care of Maira. If indeed they do not want to take care of Maira, let Maira come with me," I said to express the intention of coming here.

Ida's eyes look sparkling. "Really, Miss? Is Miss serious? Miss doesn't mind babysitting the Maira ..." Ida stopped her sentence.

"Yangv... What, Da?" my question, a little bit of frowning.

"Engga, Miss. It's not important" said Ida.

"Come on, Da .. don't make me curious" I said.

"Emm, Ida meant .. What Miss would not mind taking care of the daughter of the one who has kidnapped Miss. In fact, Maira's own mother intends to finish Miss," replied Ida.

I took a deep breath, "The one who did the wrong thing, Da's parents, not Maira's. It would be unfair if I punished Maira for the mistakes of her parents. The little boy knew nothing. I am concerned about his fate. Maira's life must be difficult due to the selfishness of both parents," I replied.

"Yes, Miss is right. Poor Maira," murmured Ida.

"Yes already, Da. Then I go home first. I had to go back to the hospital to look after my friend. But before, may I see Maira in her room?" my door to Ida.

"Of course you can, Miss. Come, Ida take you to Maira's room," take Ida while getting out of the chair.

"Don't see how Maira used to flinch, Zein," I told Zein.

"Okay" replied Zein.

I got out of my chair and followed Ida to her room. I saw the little girl curled up as she sucked her thumb. It's Maira's habit to sleep alone. For a moment, I remembered his behavior that liked to stroke my temple if we slept together. Ah, what a poor little girl.

Slowly, I closed the door to Maira's room. After seeing Maira, my determination to nurture her grew stronger.

All right, tomorrow I'll meet Anneu's parents to talk about this, my inner self.

"Yes already, Da. It seems like it's been a very night. Then excuse me first" I said to Ida.

"Yes, Miss. Be careful on the road" replied Ida.

I'm nodding. A moment later, Zein and I went back to the hospital to look after Fatwa.
