Please Let go of me

Please Let go of me
Chapter 6 - Deciding to Palestine


Suci still loves her husband, but the wound is still felt today. She was so sinful that she left her husband without telling him where she was going. But Zufar's divided care and affection left her so devastated, unable to conceive made her an imperfect woman in the eyes of her husband. She is weak, the desire of the husband makes her have to accept the second marriage, soon will be the presence of a baby who becomes a complement.


"The wounds that Zufar gave me will not heal, I will not return!" the Holy Spirit who has decided everything. 


"Your face is always gloomy."


"Sorry Umi." He answered, bowing his head, knowing where the next conversation was going.


"Have you told Zufar your whereabouts?" lyrics Umi Kalsum while forming a cake to be sold.


"Not yet Umi, Zufar mas must know where I'm going. My only complaint place is here, soon he'll be heading here."


"That's great, go back to your husband." 


Saints did not reply to the words of the middle-aged woman, because it was quite difficult to return after being betrayed by the husband.


The atmosphere became quiet, Umi Kalsum busied himself baking cakes, he did not want to interfere more in the household affairs of his son. A little showing the way and praying for the good of his adopted son.


"I'll help you, Umi." Suci could not stand still staring at the routine of the mother, immediately get out of the seat and help.


"You helped sell the cake, accompanied Hana." 


Suci nodded her head, helping her sister who was going to sell cookies at the bakery owned by her late husband Umi Kalsum, a not-so-large store run by Hana.

Saints inhaled a deep breath and took it out slowly, as if he was free. The different atmosphere of Indonesia makes it enough to reduce the burden on the heart, sincerely helping Hana at the bakery. He took a bit of time in serving and wrapping the cake, making one of the customers there tickle while glancing at his watch. "Hurry up a little, I don't want to be late" lamented the man in Arabic.


Suci apologized for not being able to wrap the bread ordered in large quantities, fortunately there was Hana who solved the problem. 


Sacred understood his true intentions, he nodded his head, stepping foot out of the bakery. Tracing the place on foot, the problem made him unable to concentrate. He looked at the chair not far from him and sat there, looking at the atmosphere in the cairo and the passersby.


"Where should I go? Sooner or later Zufar will find me." He seemed to think. 


Suci pulled out her phone and decided to run away somewhere else, she did not want to go back, dragging her mother and foster sister in household matters. Ordered a ticket to Palestine, even though he knew it wasn't safe in that country. The ongoing war between Palestine and Israel, wanting to volunteer with a little useful life.


"I'm sorry, Umi. I'd better leave Cairo!" her mind while wiping away tears. Saints returned to the store and bid farewell to Hana, giving a logical reason. 


Arriving at home, Suci did not see the existence of Umi Kalsum. He immediately headed to his room and packed all his belongings and clothes, leaving a letter on the table. Before stepping, he turned his head for a few seconds, his longing for his mother was still not satisfied.


Immediately he dragged the suitcase and went to the airport, taking the initial flight. Fortunately there was still a ticket for her, making it easy to escape before her husband came to pick her up.

Zufar smiled fluffy, early flight to Cairo when he discovered the existence of the residence of the adoptive mother of his first wife. "Wait for me there, honey. I'll pick you up!" he muttered very happily, they will soon meet.


A journey that takes time, there is no fatigue to sneak in the heart of Zufar who is so excited, misses the beautiful face of his wife who became a tranquilizer. 


Finally the journey was over, now he was in front of the residence of Umi Kalsum. A fluffy smile breathed in the scent of a Holy favorite white rose, already impatiently wanting to hug his new wife a few days away from his side.


The door opened, Zufar politely said his greetings and kissed the hand of the middle-aged woman who was already like her own mother. He stepped his feet to go inside after getting permission, but the situation of the house occupants seemed to be sad. "Why are Umi and Hana sad?"


No one answered Zufar's question, making the man frown. "What's really going on? And where's Saints?" the wailing question.


Umi Kalsum felt that she could not educate Saints well, so she fled from Zufar's side. "He has left without saying goodbye to Umi and Hana" he said, giving an abandoned letter.


Zufar did not know what to do, immediately grabbed the letter his wife left behind, saying go far away and would not return to her husband's side. The tears flowed and the letter hit, he could not think clearly and went from that place to the airport. "Holy can't just leave me, this is what I'm afraid of and now it's happening."
