31. Meet Om Again

I decided to take a shower as soon as I got home. Prepare any needs that I will bring to the hospital later. When I'm done with everything, I go to Ms. Lin's house. Agil and the twins Ghiani and Ghina were playing in the yard.

"Mother" cried Agil as soon as the boy saw me.

Agil ran and hugged for a moment. I brought the boy into my arms.

"Yes, Dara just went there with Agil."

"No college, ma'am?"

"There is no class. Who's Anin in there?"

"Rifki, the man who came here when I just moved, ma'am. Remember, right?"

Ms. Lin is just a beard for my explanation. Because I couldn't stay for long, I decided to go back to the hospital. However, Ms. Lin asked me to wait a little while longer because Dara would also come along. I finally accepted his request.

I was in such a hurry, my steps could almost be called running rather than walking. While Dara has been asking me since, wonder why I ran away? Is there an emergency or what? I just answered ambiguously. The most important thing now was that I had to quickly get to Anin's room because Rifki was already late to the office. The clock has shown at ten in the morning, I can hahis hit by his scolding.

"Rif, sorry so late. The road is jammed, Rif," I said.

The man did not immediately answer, he was focused on Dara who was just as annoying as me for chasing my steps earlier.

"Yes, it's okay. Why, how come this is so boring?"

"Well ten, you left at nine, he said."

"Gosh, Yu. Don't be that sweet. It's okay if I'm a little late, mah. Here, drink!"

I drank the water in the bottle. Who I don't know, maybe Rifki bought it.

"Om asking, yes. I'm thirsty too" said Dara, with a slightly pale face and sweat drenching her forehead.

"No. Call the real one first, I love you."

"Rifki, what the fuck, anyway. Poor thing, don't be so. Don't fuck her."

I snatched the water bottle that was in Rifki's hands. I opened it and gave the bottle to Dara. Dara had not received the bottle, suddenly she could not support her own body. Dara limb with holding her head. Fortunately Rifki swiftly held Dara's body until he did not fall backward.

"Astaghfirullah, Dar. Why you? Sit, Rif!"

I'm a little panicked. How not? He was fine when he left, why was he suddenly drowning? Ah I felt guilty asking her to run from the parking lot to Anin's room. Maybe he was exhausted from running around helping my bag. I can't take him because I'm holding Agil.

"Dar, how? Is anyone sick?" manya panic.

Dara shook her head, "No, I'm cape, ma'am. I'm having my period and a little pain in my stomach. It's okay, really. I'm fine" he replied, trying to sit down.

"If there's something bad in the body, why come here? Rest at home? If it's gini, it's a hassle," protested Rifki who looks upset.

Plaque!

I hit his big arm slowly. I'm upset that Rifki's acting like that, it's okay if she's being annoying to me, but not to the people closest to me.

"Can it be? You can't treat everyone like you treat me. Not everyone knows your annoying character."

"Yes, sorry. Not anymore" he replied.

"His stomach still hurts? You hold it, yeah. I bought some anget tea first. Are you okay here alone?"

"You work. You didn't leave anyway."

"You don't know me. You're sitting here resting, you're running away. I just bought it."

"That's not necessary. I have something to buy too. Just a second, I'll be right back."

I'm covering away by keeping hold of Agil. I purposely left them both for a while. I want them to be close and familiar too. Who knows they are both partners later, I feel sorry for my best friend who I think has been alone for a long time. Even I never once knew Rifki was in a relationship with a woman. Or did he not tell me?

Moments later, I returned with a cup of warm tea in hand. I vaguely heard the chatter. But I don't know what they're talking about. I finally opened the door and the two compact humans looked at me.

"I'm back, yeah, Yu. If anything call me."

I just nodded and thanked him. If there wasn't, he would have bothered with my life. I sat down next to Dara and gave her the tea I bought.

"You going home, Dar? You're a little pale. Sorry, yes. Because I you ran, just said you should."

"Not what mbak. It's much better."

"You're not being homelinized, are you Rifki's?"

"No, he invited me to talk from earlier so as not to faint he said," replied Dara chuckling.

"Cie got along," Ledekku.

"What, anyway, ma'am," Dara replied blushingly. "He's too old for me" he added.

"Well, no one told you to be with him."

Dara seemed to realize her stupidity and her face was getting red. Not because it blushed more precisely because of embarrassment.

After lunch, Dara left first. Agil tagged along with her, I insisted on letting Agil stay here alone. I've been troubling them, but Dara is no less stubborn than me. I ended up losing anyway, he took Agil home with him. Don't forget I told him, if Dara or mom is tired better call me.

Shortly after Dara's departure, the door to the roomang again opened. I was a little surprised because the one who came was Anang by holding Agil, along with Alif who was standing next to his father.

Ah, if only I had seen this scene when we were husband and wife. Why does everything look different when we're no longer together? Why do all the wishes I want when I become a wife come true after I become a widow?

"Mas, how did you get here?" I sat down for a moment in silence.

"I was at your house, but your neighbor who used to take care of the children said that you were in the hospital. Why don't you tell me, if Anin's sick?" the protest sat on the edge of Anin's bed.

The man then kissed the entire body of his daughter and gave a soft elusan at the top of the head.

"Sorry, I haven't had a chance to call you. I'm troubled," I replied accordingly.

"Have you eaten?" tanyanya.

"It."

"Yu, how about as long as Anin is treated in the hospital, Alif same Agil so just like me? Let the feet can focus on Anin, you are not really cape-cape."

"Your mother doesn't like my children. Who will take care of them if you work? They will be treated badly. No, what they do here is much better. You don't have to worry about them."

Anang was silent for a moment, I saw a disappointed woo on his face. I try not to care, I speak the facts.
