The End of the Road
Chapter 37's

A heart that thumped

Bara rests for a while after dawn prayers. He's feeling very sleepy. He didn't sleep last night. Waiting for Arin who is constantly delirious. He always felt anxious to see the state of Arin who looked so messy. And this morning he's going to take a short break before a routine task to check the patient's health progress. Bima and Bram had gone home after the dawn prayer earlier.Before sleeping Bara ate chicken porridge first because indeed his stomach feels very hungry. Bara set the alarm on his phone at seven o'clock. His job is at eight so there's a one-hour time lag for preparation to be enough.

I slept for almost two hours. The alarm went off and he woke up. Everything was timed according to plan. Go to the bathroom. He cleaned himself up and was ready to return about thirty minutes later. At seventy-thirty he headed for Arin's room. It is not yet a visitation hour. But he did deliberately want to visit Arin first. Arriving in front of the room, he saw a quiet state.

Baru just knocked on the door. But luckily he peeked first from the glass window. He saw Fian inside talking to Arin who was still asleep. Arin looks happy smiling. I don't know what Fian said, so Arin can look so happy. I am still watching from the outside. Bara is surprised to see Fian approaching and turns out they are kissing. Heart's pounding. There is pain in the chest. Painfully, Arin is seen returning the kiss. It turns out that Arin is conscious, or indeed still in his dream. After Bara saw Fian had returned to the place of the dudu, Bara entered the room. Deliberately not knocking on the door. He deliberately entered because he did not want to see the incident that had happened again. He deliberately rushed in, in anticipation that Fian would not kiss Arin again. He's not willing. He is not sincere. The girl he likes kisses people.

"What do you eat daydreaming? It's fried rice just on the look, not in the finish, he said hungry."

Papa pats Bara's back. Of course he was surprised.

"Papa was surprised. There's nothing Pa." Bara was shocked that there was a papa who was suddenly behind him.

"Some thought, Here's a story to papa who knows papa can help."

"There's no Pa, it's a matter of thinking patients are a little bit recalcitrant take the drug."

"Yes, Papa will take a shower first. Go to the store. It's Saturday, right? Give bonuses to employees."

"Bonus badass, I also want Pa dong." Mama immediately cut papa's words when she heard about the bonus, she immediately looked excited.

"Someone said a bonus." Papa sneers mama. Bara laughed.

"Yes dong, who smells of money who can refuse. Hehe.." Mama smiled happily. "Mama's coming to dong Pa's shop. All of us go for a walk, enjoying our hard work. It's Sunday night, how about we go on a date, Pa."

"Mama doesn't want to lose to the young." Papa just smiled.

"Lagian wait for our bachelor son later. He told me to bring a son-in-law, no one brought him. Kan Mama's holding a big grandson."

"The mom discussed continues. Bara is full. I'm gonna take a break, Ma, Pa." Waking up from his seat. He stepped into his room.

"Tu Mama, Bara is not comfortable being urged so. No more talking about grandchildren tomorrow. If they have met their soul mate, they will introduce us. The patient mother."

"Yes Pa. Mom's intentions are just kidding Pa. It's not usually like that. Maybe he's having trouble, Pa."

" It could be so, the fitting of eating also looks dreamy. Come on Ma, don't interfere in the affairs of the children. If they want a story, it will come to us. Don't force the child to open up to us. Mama reduced her curiosity. Slow down if you want to ask Bara."

"Yes Pa, Mama understands. He said he wanted to take a shower. Buruan, the afternoon rush. Poor all employees waiting for the mid-month bonus."

"Come, take a bath together Ma. Papa wants. Just a moment ." Papa winks at mom. Mama just smiled.

"Papa ikh. Come on Pa. Sure cum a minute. Papa's in an hour, too." Mama pouting. Papa laughed loudly.

"Hm.. Remember the age." They passed both of them. He forgot his briefcase was left at the dinner table.

"What is this Bara." Mama blushed in shame. Papa laughed loudly. The two of them left Bara heading to the room.

After taking her bag Bara returned to the room. He was happy to see the harmony of his parents. Bara wants a break. It's still work tonight. He's really tired.

Ai waited for Fian in front of the hospital. They deliberately promised to meet in front of the hospital so that Fian did not go back and forth. Ai also invited Via. The three of them went to the police station to see Omed. Ai feels the same as Omed. Wanted to see his condition. Omed who used to live a good life must be languishing in prison. I can do it, thought Ai.

The three of them arrived at the police station at nine. Omed was called by the prison warden. Omed walked up to them. As soon as he saw Omed, Fian felt his blood boiling. He is angry considering what Omed has done to Arin. Omed knows that. He walked closer to the bench that had been provided with a bow. Not scared but ashamed.

"Hi Omed, how are you?" Ai said hello to Omed. But Omed was silent. He just smiled thinly.

Fian is still emotional. I want him to hit Omed. But he's holding it. His hands are clenched. His jaw seemed to be hardened as it held all of his resentment. I want to vent all of his anger. I want to return all the treatment of Omed to Arin.

"Sorry Fian. I'm sorry. Sorry for all my mistakes. I'm really sorry." Omed said to Fian. He did not answer Ai's question.

"Enak just said sorry. With an apology, the business is done. If all problems can be solved with an apology. Prison is empty." Fian replied in a very cynical tone.

"It's the Fian. Omed has already got his sentence." Ai calms Fian who looks very emotional.

"Gue doesn't understand the mind-line of Lo Med. Which I love with Arin. Kok can tell people to hurt people you like. Your brain where it is." Fian said still in an emotional tone.

"I'm sorry Fian. I am evil. Hit me let you be satisfied. I'm willing to." Omed said with regret. He was wrong and he was willing to get a blow from Fian as well.

Fian just shut up. He looked at Omed with hatred. But he remembered my mother's advice. Slowly his emotions diminished. He sat on the chair but did not look at Omed anymore. He was afraid of feeling emotion again.

"Omed, how are you? My question was not answered." Ai a little protest because from earlier Omed was just the same focus Fian.

"Sorry, this is how I am. I'm fine. Don't worry about my situation. How is Arin? Is he conscious."

"Fian, you know how Arin is. Don't you want to answer Omed's question?" Via nudged Fian who did not respond to Omed's question.

"Ask me the same. I guess it's the same as Ai." Fian answered indifferently.

"Fian why is that so much the same Omed." Ai did not like to see Fian's attitude towards Omed.

"Think of it yourself.That's if you can think." Fian answered all the questions at his own will. Fian was still angry with Omed. So lazy to answer all Omed's questions.

"Well, Fian, if you don't answer my question."

"Fian just answer why."

"As far as I am, I'm going out. You two I'm waiting in front."

Fian stepped out of the room. Seeing Omed's face made him very emotional. He could not forgive Omed. His heart ached considering the incident that made Arin not want to wake up.

"Already, just let Fian out Med. He told me Arin's situation was progressing. Just wait to realize it. His wounds are starting to dry." Answer Ai comforting Omed.

"Thank God, may Arin come to his senses and recover soon."

"Mother." Ai and Via answered simultaneously.

"I mean you want to get out of that prison."

"Yes... Permission is the same, police officer."

"Try me. Especially if your lawyer or bokap lo may even be easier."

"Yes tomorrow, yes."

"Med, don't be discouraged. I will always be there for you. Arin must have forgiven you too. You know how Arin is. He will forgive you." Ai cheers up to Omed.

"Thank you Ai and also Via. You two are going to see me."

Visitation time is over. The prison guards have given the code. Ai and Via out. Fian sat on his motorcycle seat.

"Let's go home. You want to go back home to the hospital." Ai's question surprised Fian.

"Oh, what a habit. When it comes it gives code. Let me not be surprised."

"Damn you, think I'm a demon." Ai hit Fian's hand hard.

"Lo's going back to the hospital to go straight home." Ask Via.

" I want to go home first. Take a shower and change clothes. Later that afternoon I returned to the hospital. Let's go home. Sleep me."

"Yes, come on. Go home alone. I'm the same Ai wants to stop by the mall first." Say via.

The three of them split up here. Because the direction they will go through is different. Fian wants to go home. He felt very tired and sleepy. He wants to rest first and then come back to the hospital. He really didn't close his eyes. His mind is so fucked. Thinking about Arin. He always prayed that Arin would recover soon. Many things Fian wanted to say and also do both Arin. Healing quickly Arin. Especially considering what happened this morning when he kissed her. Fian was excited. Arin returned her kiss.

"Fians...Fians. Awake son. It's noon." Mama Maria knocked on Fian's room door. Mama hasn't seen Fian since. That's why Mama's looking for Fian to the room."Fian, wake. Tumben hasn't woken up yet."

"Let's Ma, once in a while Fian wakes up in the afternoon."

Andra who was next door opened the door and answered my mother's question. She didn't tell my mom last night that Fian didn't come home. Andra was intentionally. Because when he came home was deserted. Mom and Dad went into the room.

"His sister hasn't eaten yet, it's Andra's noon. You have not had breakfast. Mama cook your favorite chicken soto."

" Yes Ma, soon Andra will come down. Let Andra wake Fian up."

"Well, Andra, you gotta wake up. Get downstairs and papa's waiting for breakfast."

"Yes Ma, soon Andra will come down."

After she left, Andra picked up her phone and sent a message to Fian. After that Andra went downstairs, to the dining room. He's already hungry. Because time has shown at eight.

"Where's Fian, Ndra?"

"He wasn't in his room. Andra called, she said she came out this morning. There's a promise with his friend Ma."

Andra lied to mom. He knew it was wrong, but for the good of all he did it. Andra did not want her mother to scold Fian and also surely her mother would curse Arin. Andra did not want the innocent Arin to be involved.

"Yes we've eaten first, Papa is hungry Ma." Papa. He was already hungry.

Finally, they had only three breakfasts. Andra was relieved that she had not asked any more questions about Fian. Hopefully later Fian does not answer the wrong mama asked him later. Actually Andra also resigned if mama got angry. It's common too. I don't know why mama is so anti the same Arin family.

After finishing eating, everyone returns with their own routine.

Fian came home an hour later. She saw my mom watching television. His heart was worried. Mama would be angry, she thought.

"Assalamu'alaikum, good morning Mama." Fian greeted his mother even with a pounding heart.

"Wa'alaikumsalam, dear morning. Where have you been, early in the morning."

"Meet Ma's friend. There was an appointment with Ai and Via. Mama knows them."

"Oi son of Mr. Doni whose wife owns the boutique."

"Yes Ma, I know Mama Ai." Ask Fian. Intentionally Fian invited mama to talk, so that mama forgot the news about Arin .

"Kalo Via Pak Hary's son who owns the restaurant."

"It turns out my mom knew them well."

"Know dong, they're Arisan mama's friends. Unlike Ida's jeng who was just a maid. Mama agrees that you're friends with them."

"Yes Ma. They've been Fian's friends since High School. Yeah, Fian went to the room first. " Fian purposely did not discuss the slightest bit about the Arin family. Even though Mama had to mention the name of the mother.

" Wait on Fian, Mama will ask. That's the maid's son why else would he go to the hospital?"

Fian stopped his steps and fell silent. Haduh has tried to avoid still mama remembered the same Arin. Or maybe you don't hate Arin. Because every day my mom calls her name. Not love and hate is different. Don't be so in love, because so broken up you'll hate him so much. And don't hate it so much that you'll fall in love.

Fian was confused as to what to answer. Because whatever he answers will definitely be the subject of my mother's reproach on Arin. Fian pretended not to hear.

"Fian, stay quiet. Answer my mother's question. Don't avoid Mama. Come sit down first. Mama wants to talk to you."

Fian was confused. He was confused as to how. Do what . Avoiding or following your mother's will. About how yes.
