"Where have you been, Riko?? since noon your phone can't be reached!!" said his mother who wears a black shirt and hood.
Instead of answering, Riko asked, "Who's that ma'am??" he said with a body that began to tremble as well as Johan.
"Darling...Is that you??" Riko slowly opened the covering cloth.
The beautiful face that fell asleep in eternity was only silent as Riko stroked her cheek and kissed her.
"Darling...wake up...do not do this?? papah just went for a while with John to finish his work papah, the mama is already angry by pretending to sleep like this?? let's get up mah..don't make papah worry!!" Riko started to panic while shaking his wife's body which had been cold and stiff.
No one there dared to open their voices, their tongues felt confused to see Riko's interaction.
Until one hand holds his shoulder.
"Riko..Sania's body will be bathed!!" it was the voice of Intan's mother.
"Mom, why does my wife sleep so hard.Why doesn't she wake up as usual when I get home from work??" Riko asked but her eyes were empty and empty.
Many of the mourners shed tears. They know that Riko knows that his beloved wife is dead, but he still thinks Sania is just a normal sleep to treat her heart injury.
"Johan, please take your boss to his room first!!" mother Intan said.
"Mom, Riko helped bathe Riko's wife yes.pity if bathed by others but Riko is not there, Riko's wife often gets cold.usually every time she takes a bath and she is cold, Riko immediately hugs her."
"Yes, son, I can!! bathe your wife for the last time.after that hug her so as not to be cold when bathed.Since after this you can not hold her again!!" said Intan's mother with tears.
Like a statue of Riko's life just according to it, as if half of his soul had also gone with Sania.
With painstaking care she took part in bathing witnessed also by Della, Dina and Syifa who had not stopped crying over the body of his mother.
"Mah.mandi yes let it be fragrant and more beautiful.if you want to face Allah must be beautiful and fragrant!!" riko's murmur made the person who took the bath become very moved.
There were no tears, only her eyes that stared blankly.
After being bathed and before being in the cafeteria, her children kissed their mother for the last time.
Niko and Hans, the two men who still loved Sania could only stare blankly. Before Riko came, they both had read surah yasin to the late Sania.
Once again Riko hugged and kissed his wife's forehead and cheeks affectionately. The beautiful face was like a sleeping princess so many mourners admired her.
"Sleep is calm, baby.don't forget to always dream papah..May we meet and be together again!!" riko said with a smile.
"Beautiful papah..now become more beautiful!!" lirih Riko's.
He followed all the processions until the moment Sania's body was sholatan, Riko who was standing at the front saf felt her chest hurt a lot, and....
BRUUGGH....
As soon as the body was finished in sholatan Riko collapsed and was quickly captured by Hans who was next to him.
The mourners stirred with the fall of Riko.
His body was laid in the middle of a rather loose room so as not to overstress him even more.
"Sw..bu....!!" hans said that raised Riko.
He saw the body that was lifted and placed there was no movement of breath in his stomach at all like an ordinary fainting person.
"Sir....!!" hans said again to Intan's mother and the others.
Niko became curious to see the behavior of Hans who had once attended nursing school.
Not believing what she saw, she felt a pulse in her neck and in Riko's hands and then she shook her head with a deathly pale face.
"What's up, Hans?? yelled Niko and the others also started to panic.
Moreover, Intan's mother had begun to guess.
"It looks like Mr. Riko doesn't exist!!" hans replied.
BRUGGH...
Intan's mother immediately fell unconscious to hear Hans' words.
Niko had also noticed Riko who always held her left chest, seen also Riko repeatedly took a short breath. But she thinks positively, probably because Riko was devastated by Sania's departure.
I don't know who called the doctor.
The young doctor examined Riko many times to be more convincing.
The doctor shook his head with the same expression Hans had shown.
It is likely that when Riko fell earlier, his heart had stopped beating and he died immediately after the corpse was finished.
The mood is getting bigger. Not yet had Sania's body left for her final resting place, Riko with all her love went after the wife accompanied her in a state of life and death.
*******
That day the big families of Sania and Riko grieved. Raftar looks still as eager as in the sling of Intan's mother. All those at the funeral were not only grieving but also shocked by the passing of Riko who initially did not have any pain according to Johan's assistant.
Riko suddenly has a heart attack and finds his beloved wife has gone home forever. His regret that did not have time to accompany his wife when death picked up, also the sadness that could not be held back by him made Riko got a heart attack.
"Dad...why are the same mother papah om Riko put into the ground??" that was how Miko and Miki asked while they were in the cemetery.
Niko is forced to lie to two of her parents who she already considers her own son.
"The same mother papah om Riko moved bobo here, yes!! here the mother said the same papah air is cool and the place is comfortable for rest, bundakan again sick tuh, so papah nemenin mother here!!" niko said with a hold on her sadness.
"Ohhhh, when did you go home again?? Miko same Miki promise not to be naughty and wayward again, so that mother and papah can quickly go home!!" the words Miko and Miki simultaneously made Niko and the others tremble at hearing it.
Syifa and little baby Sania and Riko who was named Sari were not invited to the funeral because Syifa was also in a state of shock to lose the person she loved at the same time.
"Let's go home." said Hans' friends.
Hans shook his head.
"I want to spend the night here tonight and know if you want to go home, go home!!" hans said he looked lethargic.
Eventually they stay overnight at Hans's house of memories for Sania which he will always remember forever.
"Let's go home." Jonathan said to the others.
"Mother, papah...Dinah same Juned go home first!! tomorrow we both come here again to visit mother and papah all bring Syifa if the situation starts to stabilize.then Syifa fainted here is not funny, mother!!" dina said trying to amuse herself.
*******
"Hans.we plan to go back to our old house.too many sweet memories here that make Syifa cry!!" della said that night after the tahlilan show.
"Yes mom, I understand!! so who manages the photocopying and dining room here??" hans said again.
"We've been working on it and will sell it to open another business in the city." Said sister Della.
"Why do you have to make new ones again, isn't the cafe yours too??" said Hans.
"For the sake of the Sultan and Sania, you're getting the best out of the cafe, Hans!!" della replied with a smile.
*******
"So from today you're moving schools??" leo Pranasetha.
"Yes Leo.Pity Syifa if you continue to live in that house.too many memories that hurt his heart!!" dina said while smiling painfully.
"Yes I understand!!" leo said slowly.
"But we're going to remain true??" said Leo.
"Sure.friend forever!!" dina answered with Leo.
Dina said goodbye to everyone she had been good with before she left.
******
"Mother and papah rest in peace yes.we want to return to the city to our former home...Dina promised to often visit mother and father here, Assalamualaikum!!" said Dina standing up while breaking her tears.
Hans closed the door of the house without any intention of leasing it to anyone.
There are so many wonderful memories in this house. The memory of the woman who had reigned in her heart she loved in silence that until the end of her life had never known if a Hans had fallen in love with her.
The location of the furniture in the house also did not change position, as well as the flower garden that Sania had created, remained there.
"Goodbye, Mrs Sania.pak Riko...release love you two!!" hans said before leaving the funeral. There were several points of clear water that just flowed from his eyelids and was immediately wiped out.
