The Creak of my Friend's Bed
Deteriorated

No one dared to answer Hendrik's question. All the members of the family were silent with their thoughts. Hendrik felt something was wrong with his family. He stared one by one from his parents to his younger siblings.

" Well, why don't you just shut up and not answer my question?"

"Kirana-Sandy, please call Mey to come here soon! I wanted to meet him, when I was sick he wasn't there next to me?"

They did not respond at all to the words spoken by Hendrik just now. Until Hendrik realized what had really happened to him and Mey, "astaghfirullah aladzim, we had an accident. I just remembered this, is Mey's condition okay mah-pah-Sandy-Kirana?"

Mickel nudged Kayla's arm to signal that his wife would answer Hendrik's words.

"Mey at this time....

"He died with your son. All because of your mistake driving the car too fast! you accidentally killed my son and future grandson!"

Suddenly Hendrik's mother-in-law came and said many things, to make Hendrik flabbergasted, "gee, is what the mother said just now true? it's appropriate that you were asked from earlier not to immediately answer either."

Hendrik was devastated to hear the news of Mey's death, he did not realize melted his tears. In her heart she cursed herself" what she said was right, all my fault. Indirectly I killed my own wife and my future son."

Kayla approached Almarhumah Mey's mother, "Mom, why did you say this when Hendrik's condition was stable?"

"Lohhhh... Why sewot anyway? I tell the truth, I know Hendrik's carelessness also from some of his people who had seen the incident of the consecutive accident. Because Hendrik's car drove at a very fast speed. If Hendrik hadn't driven so fast, Mey and my future grandchildren would be alive right now" the mother shed tears.

Kayla can feel the sadness that is currently felt by her mother, "sorry Mom, I am not sewot. I will also definitely say what has happened to Mey, but after Hendrik's condition is stable. He had just regained consciousness, so it was not yet time to hear the bad news. I am also a mother, I can also feel what my mother is currently feeling. It was very painful, but everything that happened because it was the destiny of the Divine so you should not blame Hendrik."

The mother was getting more emotional, "what did you say earlier, a destiny? this is not destiny, but Hendrik's recklessness that drives too fast. If he doesn't speed it up, it'll be something else."

The mother continued to say many things until Ksylay could not say anything more because the mother continued like a firecracker. This only makes Mickel have to act. He approached the mother while cupping his hands in his chest, "mom, that's enough! please do not continue to judge Hendrik, what else is the condition of Hendrik at this time also has not fully recovered. I'd better go home soon. We will not be separated from the responsibility, will continue to provide a living to the mother and three sisters of Almarhumah Mey."

The mother rode apitam," so arrogant huh! I did not come here to ask for money, do not doubt you are rich until a little bit related to money. I don't need your money, but I'm asking you to give me back my son and future grandchildren!"

Seeing that the mother could not be controlled anymore, Kirana also pressed the bell that was on the gurney precisely above Hendrik's head. There came a doctor and a nurse.

"Sus please secure the mother. Because from earlier he made a move here that made my brother's condition so bad!" Kirana's orders.

The mother's loud speech was even heard by Hendrik. Makes him feel more guilty about what happened to Mey Almarhumah.

The doctor immediately checked Hendrik's body condition. And say that the condition is fine. But it should be a lot of rest and should not be too much of a thought at all.

After a long time the doctor checked Hendrik's condition, he also said goodbye to immediately treat other patients.

While Kayla shook her head and walked over to Hendrik, "astaghfirullah aladzim, Hendrik you don't have to be affected by what Almarhumah Mey's mother just said?"

"Well, what you said was all true. I'm the one who's supposed to die and I'm guilty of this. I drove the car too fast, but Mey reminded me to slow down and. But I can't wait to tell you the good news about Mey's pregnancy. I didn't expect it to be like this."

Hendrik also said that he even got a phone while driving. Mey also gave advice to stop for a moment the speed of his car to receive a call. But he just kept driving his car.

The beginning of the incident of the consecutive accident was told all by Hendrik with tears that broke.He regretted not listening to the advice of the late Mey.

The Hendrik family also felt a deep sadness. They can also feel what Hendrik is feeling right now.

"Hendrik, stop. It's not purely your fault, everyone has arranged it. So you don't have to blame yourself constantly like this" advises Mickel.

"Yes Hendrik, Almarhumah Mey and your future son would be sad to see you like this. Now just focus on your recovery" advises Kayla.

But Hendrik no longer have the spirit to live because you love Mey very much, but because of his carelessness so that Mey must leave this world for good.

After a long time in the hospital, Hendrik was finally allowed to return home. But he wanted to come to the tomb of Almarhumah Mey.

Hendrik to the tomb accompanied by Mickel and also Kayla. They have not allowed Hendrik to go alone despite being accompanied by the private driver. They are still doubtful about Hendrik's psychic condition which still looks bad.

Hendrik was crying hysterically at his wife's grave," baby, I'm sorry. All this because of my carelessness. If I had followed your will, we would still be happy now. It's all my fault, I killed you and our future son!"

Hendrik just keep banging his own head, just hit Mickel immediately hold Hendrik's hand," istighfar son!"
