The Colorful Work World
Ch. 60 Visiting the Father 2

Finished giving my regards, I sat down for a while after putting the items on the floor. I saw that besides the sisters, mother was not home. Is he taking care of my father?

“Dek, where are you?” I asked Yana.

“Mamah at mas hospital, keep papah” He replied with a rather sad face.

We chatted and I talked about some things with Yana. Especially regarding the incident papah began to fall ill the other day. Quite sad also because he immediately fell ill when I just started working in Tangerang.

“Iya mas, as of Monday papah has started to look sick symptoms. On Tuesday, he was taken to the hospital. Because his lips are too monty and tremble when holding objects such as pens and scoops”

As Yana spoke, she began to shed tears. I can only give hugs to reduce the sadness felt. Indeed the father is unique, although his attitude is fierce and sometimes unclear. All of his children love their father. May we all be devoted to father and mother.

Maybe it was all because of a very good mother. He always reminded that the same father should be devoted and not to hate the father. That's why I when I meet with friends I always say “If not for mom, me and dad have been hit-punching from before”

I have no problem with my father myself, other than when he started talking about something that upset me. Whether this is talent or what, every father starts to open his mouth. There must be something that pisses me off. Sometimes I can't question it and hit the door or the nearest wall. Especially when I was working as a teacher. I am often upset because of my father's behavior.

As a result, my hands often felt pain from that momentary anger. Seeing that, I immediately became interested in squishy and tried to buy it. Because he said it can reduce emotions. Unexpectedly, it turned out that it was quite successful. At least I don't like hitting walls or doors anymore. All the rage channeled into a funny squishy.

According to coworkers too, if emotions continue to often destroy things it is not good. Especially if you destroy expensive items, right, dear. Therefore, it is better to vent anger with a squisy only. Luckily it worked for me, does the same apply to others? maybe yes, maybe not.

Satisfied talking to Yana, I called my mother who was in the hospital.

*tuut...Klek*

“Halo, assalamualaikum”

“Waalaikumsalam, mamah is still in the hospital huh?”

“iya son, Mamah is still here taking care of papah”

“What's theship? is it better?”

I started talking about a lot of things with Mom. At first I wanted to tell you about my journey. But I didn't because I wanted to hear from you first. Moreover, mothers also have to rest because it keeps people sick and requires a lot of energy. Maybe I can change to take care of the father if there is a chance, so that mother can rest.

It did not occur to me why I had to be accompanied by my wife while in the hospital. Isn't there a nurse who will take care of them? or do you not trust the sisters and prefer to be cared for by the mother? Unfortunately I have not had the experience of a household so it has not been able to relate to the attitude of the father. Indeed, the mother said the father indeed if at a time like this pengenya pampered.

But if the story I heard from an office friend. Indeed often their husband aleman and ask him to be cemented continue. Some people think it's romantic and so sweet. But if it has to be cemented continuously 24 hours a day, instead of becoming fatigued later? Surely every household chooses their own rules and happiness.

Maybe this question will be answered later if I have lived a new life. Hopefully, if that time comes, I can be a better person again, because the best person is the better one than yesterday. If we still have not found our soul mate, the thing to do is to upgrade yourself to become a better person.

“So yes ma'am, hopefully get well soon yes, Ray will look tomorrow. It's night, mom also has to rest huh. Greetings also to mr” said me while intending to end the phone this time.

“Yes, thank you. Assalamualaikum”

“Waalaikumsalam”

After hanging up the phone from mom, I changed clothes then made the bed before going to dreamland. Because no one has used the mattress for a week, it looks like it should be taken care of a little. My room is currently empty because the user, Arip and I are not at home. Fortunately the dust was not too much, it seemed like this room was cleaned periodically.

“Mmm.. Hopefully tomorrow can withstand the emotions and will not be angry with the father for not maintaining his health” I pray before going to bed to be sound and tomorrow visit the father goes smoothly.

*The next day*

I woke up early as usual. But different things happened to my body.

“Walah, the effect of tangerang is this?”

Indeed after traveling for 2 hours by public transport. The body screams in pain. I think it's quite surprising why it can be tired when just sitting on the bus doang. Inevitably, I had to massage the affected part and do light stretching to reduce the aching. After I finished stretching, my body felt good and I returned to activities.

Today is Saturday, where many people are on holiday. The streets should also become more crowded because people are on vacation. I don't know if there will be a situation where people become afraid to leave the house because of an extraordinary incident. Because I'd rather the streets be quiet than jammed.

Last night I had the nitip to buy him a sit while visiting my father in the morning. Because if you leave too late, worry about running out of rice. After saying goodbye to my sisters, I immediately slid to my destination.

“Bu, buy rice uduknya 5 ya”

“Any pack, want to wear anything?”

This time I sent a message to all the family members. Mom, dad, me, Yana, and Lamda. They were 5 people and I bought them all rice. Later after delivering rice sitting to the hospital, I will bring this food home to the dining brothers.

Just like other rice vendors, this place also sells on the roadside. That's why many passers-by are buying into this place. The person who takes care is the mothers and looks very much from the way he wraps the rice, he is already good at his work. The mothers quickly took the rice, side dishes, crackers, and others. It can serve many people in a short time.

After waiting for a few minutes, I went straight to the hospital after paying for the food I bought. Soon I will meet my father, what is his current condition? Hopefully he will get back to health quickly and will improve his lifestyle for the better. It is important for humans to maintain health.

*Until the hospital*

I haven't been to the hospital for a long time. Thankfully, my brother and I rarely visited the hospital. Mother always put forward rest at home independently. Because pity if only a mild illness to the hospital, later people whose condition is worse will run out of place.

As far as I know, a family member who is often ill is a father. Hopefully this time, he will become a person who is more concerned about health. Because we still want to be devoted to the Father.

I searched the parking lot and put down my helmet before walking into the hospital area. At the gate, I called my mother.

“Halo, assalamualaikum. Mamah, papah treated in which room?”

“papa treated in room xxx, later directly here to take uduk and visit ya”

After confirming the location of the room through the hospital map. I hung up the phone and walked towards the nursery.

‘Bismilah. Patience, father is sick. Do not be angry father for not reducing cigarettes and maintaining health, Istighfar’ This prayer I say many times before meeting with the father.

Because I know best about my father's problems, I'm more emotional. Though usually if for other matters, I rarely happen like this. I don't know what the cause of this only happens to the father. istighfar Ray, Istighfar.
