SHAHDU IN THE SENDU
Subduedness
...Part 2's...
...🍁🍁🍁...
“Where to be”?
Zain seemed to be unable to wait any longer, and immediately asked about Zareen's situation to Reza who had just entered his ward. Really, he feels guilty.
“He's still not siuman”
Zain let out a rough breath, he kept thinking about why this could happen. Why do calamities seem happy to touch him, come and go. It was only two months that his beloved father left for eternity, followed by a beloved heart who was caught playing behind him for the umpteenth time. And now, he almost died and took the lives of others. So deplorable.
“You need me to call Ilna”?
“Jangan”
“Hmm well, you rest, I'll be back” later
Reza just nodded in understanding, he knew enough about what was going on with his best friend. And then it passed leaving Zain alone with his gloom.
“Darling, you didn't ask me, were you really happy with him hm?, until just asking me how I was doing you didn't have time”? Lirih Zain before closing his eyes again.
“Where's brother, where?”
Unpatiently, Gema runs down the hospital hallway, leaving Reza who keeps trying to stop her by constantly calling her name.
“Gema, you have to be calm yes, can not be like this, later not allowed in”. Rayu Reza holds both shoulders of the sweet boy.
“Hufhh,, By setting his breath back, Echo then nodded
“Smart kid, all right let's join brother”
Reza guided the eight-year-old boy to Zareen's nursery, arriving in front of Reza's room pushing the white door slowly. Unlike just a moment ago, Gema seemed very calm, slowly heading towards the gurney of the elder brother. The sad look, yes, however personal Echoes that do look very mature from his age, still he is a small child, who can not hide his emotions for too long. One tear drop that came out without his permission soaked the smooth cheeks of the boy who was still wearing the red and white uniform. Gently clasping the brother's hand, Echoes muttered,
“Kakak have slept how long?, brother wake up yuk, yuk we go home, not good big brother sleep here, narrow brother bed, Echoes can not bend sister again deh”.
Wailing echoes that sound heartbreaking, wiping away the tears that continue to flow, with a smile that can somehow still be said to be a smile. Echoes continue to hold the hand of the woman he loves dearly, the hand that has protected him from the harshness of the world all along.
“God, what have I done?”.
Again, he shouts
Zain was about to turn around from his standing position a moment ago, but Ningsih's voice stopped him.
“Zain...What are you doing here, son?”
For a moment, Ningsih understood and looked back at Zain.
“You want to see Zareen?, come on in”
“No bu, Zain back in the room first”
Ningsih was surprised to see the departure of his son, it was clear that Zain was very badly hit by this incident. He knew his son, the man who did not often express himself to people out there, who was famous for his dingy nature, there was only decisiveness and seriousness to strangers who knew him, but Ningsih knew his son well, Zain was very responsible.
Removing tears and tidying up a bit of her appearance, Ningsih entered carefully so as not to cause noise to the girl inside.
“Assalamu’alaikum.” Greetings Ningsih with a smile
“Waalaikumsalam.” Answer the compact two men of different ages.
“Wahh already nyampe yes son, whose name is”? Sapa Ningsih enthusiastically towards Gema who was still holding her brother's hand.
“My name Echoes buk, my sister brother Iza”, bright Echoes while greeting the hand of Ningsih with respect, after which she returned to the side of the brother.
“So this is his sister Zareen, handsome yes you son, polite again” Puji Ningsih while stroking the head of Echo.
“ O yes, Echoes have eaten?”, Not sure yes, because after school directly here kan”
The echo just nodded
“Yuk we find out first”
“Nothing buk, I eat it later, I'm here to accompany brother”
It seems obvious, if Gema really misses her brother. Ningsih who realized that, then took a step, he would not force of course, let it go, Gema is really a good child he thought.
“Hmmm okay, What echoes would you like to eat? Let brother Reza go buy me”
Thinking for a moment, Gema replied,
“Any buk, Echoes do not choose to eat kok”
“Alright, we buy rice padang course”, break up Ningsih with passion. Echoes just smile.
On the other hand, Zain stared softly at the flat object he had been holding since, the call or just a short message he had been waiting for never came, very pity. Where is the girl, why did not visit also memawbarinya, no, he did not expect the girl to ask him the news, precisely, what he really wanted was the news of the girl, whether she was okay or not, because since he got the incident three days ago that made him lie weak in this hospital, he did not know the news of the woman he loved. Ah this really frustrates him.
Choosing to lay down again into the gurney, Zain placed his hand on his head, staring at the ceiling of the ward.
Irritated, worried, that was how he felt at this moment. His heart and mind kept raging as if not letting him rest for a moment.
“Why is it like this? I hate” Complaints before trying to shut down those two black netra again.
*
Ningsih unceasingly looked at the interaction between sister and brother that was presented before her eyes. No, maybe it can not be said interaction, because, only the echo of someone who continues to speak, while the brother, still faithfully closed his beautiful eyes. Ningsih really likes to see this, two human children, with the simplicity of her life, yet truly rich in affection. Look, how one was hit so hard, by the other.
“Gema, want to go back to nak” first? Echoes are so tired like his”
“Oh not buk, Echoes here only, Echoes are not tired kok”
“Gema has been from noon like this continue to child, cook yes not tired of sitting while holding hands big brother continues, later pegel-pegel lo” Persuak Ningsih while rubbing the head of the Echoes.
“Gema go home well, shower, pray, abis it goes to sleep, right tomorrow Echo must go to school again”
“Nothing dear, there will be a Mother here” Sanggah Ningsih directly when Gema seems still reluctant to leave her brother.
“Gema titip brother yes sama ibuk, until Echo tomorrow back here”
“Sweetie, I'm going to take care of my sister, Echoes calm down, okay?”
“Alright, thanks ya buk, Echoes permission to go home first”
“Iya son, equally, do not forget until the home directly bobok ya”
“Iya buk”
“There, brother Reza has been waiting for”
“Good Buk, Assalamu’alaikum”
“Waalaikumsalam”, carefully bring your car Za.
“Quickly aware son, I'm curious to see you, your personality, how you educate Gema, until the eight-year-old boy grows up to become a child who is so polite, kind, and sholeh. You must be a very good sister nak”.
Ningsih smiled sweetly after rubbing Zareen's khimar-covered head.
