The Sacrifice that was Sia-Sia

Ranum felt crashing to the bottom of the deepest abyss when he saw his mother's body from afar was covered with a white cloth. His tongue was as though it was a mute only to ask what was happening he could only silently stare and watch as several nurses were pushing the gurney towards him. Followed by Ijah who was holding Aish behind the nurses who kept moving pushing the gurney.

"Are people like me born just to feel pain? And now that I've sacrificed everything you've taken my mother."

"Why did all this have to happen to me? If only to feel the pain and sorrow for what was I born into this cruel world?"

"Why am I still alive if I continue to feel this kind of misery?"

"Why Sir, why? Only I am the one you tested with trials that come in many ways like this?"

"It turns out that my prayers have been in vain, and what I have done has also been in vain."

Ranum just kept talking to himself in his mind, so the gurney stopped right in front of him. At that moment also his cry broke and sounded so heartbreaking that anyone who saw it would not be able to see the sight.

"Wake up Mom, open your eyes I've brought money for your surgery." Ranum hugged his mother's body while continuing to shake the stiff body. "Suster please save my mother, I already have money now just do the operation and I'll pay the administration fee." He now turned to pull the clothes of one of the sisters who helped push the gurney earlier. "Save my mother, please … ."

Suddenly a palm slapped Ranum's shoulder a few times slowly after Ijah's sentence was finished he heard.

"Your mother is no longer in pain so you should be grateful that God took her life because God seems to have felt so sorry for your mother" Rudy said, her father Ranum came to the hospital.

Ranum smiled bitterly as he looked at his father with reddened eyes, he also brushed Rudy's hand very roughly.

"Ranum, your mother is gone so, I came here just to invite you and Aish to stay at my father's house. As a form of responsibility of the father to the two daughters of the father," said Rudy without any guilt.

Ranum's mouth locked as if reluctant to just reply to Rudy's words, because he felt it was too late for his soul to be enveloped in a cloud of black. Where he now turned into hating the figure of his own father.

"All I'll take care of including your mother's funeral, you just have to go with me and not have to think about this."

"Why should I be born a daughter of a man who has absolutely no conscience?"
