The Injured
There's Happiness There's Grief

"Aleesa .. I want to see Aleesa."

Echa's face was panicked. Her tears kept flowing.

"Quiet, Honey. Quiet." Calm." Radit tries to calm Echa down. He knew his wife could not accept the reality.

"Aleesa is not dead, she is alive" said Echa.

Radit hugs Echa's body. His heart was very sick to hear his wife.

"Take me to Aleesa, Ay. Aleesa is not dead yet," Echa said in a hoarse voice.

Oh my God, what should I do. Don't let my wife get depressed.

Radit gently rubbed Echa's back to calm her down. His sobs sounded very soft and heart-wrenching. An IGD doctor came and told Echa and Radit that their two children were crying loudly. Not wanting to be with anyone and banging on IGD doors.

Unacquainted with pain, Echa removed the intravenous needle in her hand by force until blood came out of the back of her hand.

"Dear." Radit shook his head, but Echa immediately got off the sickle bed towards the exit.

"Darling, you have to ...."

"I beg you!" pinta Echa while showing her eyes full of wounds.

Echa steps her legs with Radit and her body slips to the floor as her two children embrace Echa's legs. Sobbing to call out Aleesa's name.

"Sa's eyes."

"Dede in tata Sa."

Rion and Mbak Ina bow in hearing the requests of the other two Echa children. Little kids won't understand what it's like to go on forever.

"Yes, Son. We wake Brother Sa." Everyone who heard Echa's words widened their eyes. Radit just shook his head. Hinting that Echa isn't okay.

Rion's heart is very broken to see his daughter traumatized back.Trauma Echa can impact on the Arrhythmia he suffered. Healing is not necessarily not relapsing.

Echa led her two children to the mortuary. Radit is a little confused, but Echa has not been told anything by himself about Aleesa's body. While Iyan was wandering around looking for Jojo who suddenly disappeared.

Sure enough, Radit's family and Echa's parents are in front of the mortuary. They were all shocked by the arrival of Echa.

"Sister, you-"

"Echa wants in" he said flatly.

"Cha, you have to be patient. Aleesa was calm there."

"Aleesa is not dead!" it's exciting for everyone.

"He's just sleeping."

Ayanda who was very sad to hear the words of her son. Her tears just drip.

"Dear, control your emotions." Gio starts to dampen Echa's emotions. However, Echa ignored it. Moreover, he continued to lead his two children who were crying into the mortuary in which there was Addhitama taking care of Aleesa's body.

"Little children should not enter" one of the officers said.

Echa doesn't heed, everyone sees Echa is not the Echa they know. Officers who want to block Echa, Addhitama banned. Letting him be the only way. Then, he tells Radit to accompany Echa. He knows being in a position like Echa is very difficult.

Echa's hand opened Aleesa's body cover. Aleesa's deathly pale face was clearly visible. Echa's tears flowed back, like they never receded.

"Anak Bubu's. Wake up, son. Your two brothers are looking for you."

Radit was already bowing deeply, as was Addhitama and the officer inside. What a sentence Echa said.

Echa began to raise Aleena and Aeleya's bodies onto Aleesa's lifeless bed. The two of them hugged Aleesa's already motionless body.

"Sa's eyes."

The call that came out from the tiny lips of Aleeya and also Aleena.

"Banun, we ain Agi."

Don't ask me what an Echa's heart is like. It hurts and it hurts so much. Aeleya started crawling past Aleesa's body. He lay down on Aleesa's right side. Aleena was lying on Aleesa's left side. Warm embrace they give to the already stiff body.

"Dedek ayang tata Sa."

"Tata Na uda, say Tata Sa."

Echa's sobs grew louder and her body fell to the floor. Unable to face this painful reality. The two Echa children even seemed happy to play with Aleesa's body. Tricks kept coming out of their mouths. Although, there was no reply from Aleesa.

Radit tries to awaken Echa's extremely weak body. He who did not feel the pain of taking care of Aleesa twenty hours nonstop felt an immense pain. What about Echa?

"Darling, we have to be strong."

Addhitama and the mortuary guards were unable to see the heart-wrenching sight. They chose to leave the mortuary and cry out there with the rest of the family.

"Mamih can't imagine how the real Echa feels?" Nesha was already crying in Rindra's arms.

Seeing this kind of miserable situation, Iyan wanted to see the body of his nephew. He also broke in. When he went inside, many spirits that he saw. However, he was very clear that the white light that was lost yesterday, was now present again.

Iyan approached Aleesa's bed. He saw his other two nephews very happily hugging Aleesa's body and blabbering whatever was unclear. Iyan's hand grabbed Aleesa's tiny hand, but it was like someone was electrocuting Iyan's. Until she screamed a little and made Echa and Radit flinch.

"What's up Iyan?"

Radit and Echa's family entered when they heard Iyan's screams.

"Try Brother Echa hold Aleesa's hand."

Echa was a little confused by what Iyan had told him. As Iyan nodded her head, Echa began to clasp Aleesa's hand and then regained consciousness.

Panicked. That's what the family feels. However, Iyan forbids anyone to carry Echa's body.

"Put Brother next to Aleesa and never let go of Brother Echa's hand."

Aleena and Aleeya looked puzzled, but she took part in holding Aleesa and Echa's hands.

"Pig, ninah!"

Aleena grabbed Radit's hand and put it together with their stacked hands. For those who see it this is a heart-slicing sight. Wiping the tip of the eye, that's what they do.

Echa POVs

I followed Iyan's orders to hold Aleesa's hand. Although, I feel incapable. I keep following him. However, I felt something creep up in my hand and into my body so I felt something hit me so hard.

When I opened my eyes, I woke up and was in a beautiful green meadow. There were a lot of kids playing happily. Without their parents or their caregivers. Everyone wears white clothes.

Their happy faces were very clear. Laughter and jokes sound very boisterous. Until my heart is filled if I remember my daughter who has been stiffened.

"Aleesa," Ielse.

My ears caught the sound of a girl crying loudly. Her voice is like the voice of my daughter, Aleesa. I looked for the sound, went around the green meadow.

"Aleish!" yell me.

Not a single child cared about my screams. They are busy with their own world. A sweat washed over my body, and I kept looking for my daughter's voice.

"Aleesa .. That's you, son."

I'm like a crazy person screaming to himself. Until my steps stopped when I saw my daughter crying loudly. He did not want to go into that beautiful meadow.

I heard Aleesa say very clearly, not as usual a lisp. Aleesa's hands were clasped by the person in white with his face completely invisible. Only bright light bias.

"Aleish!"

I called him and ran towards him. Aleesa's crying broke even more, I tried to grab her. However, it was like there was a thick glass that blocked both of us.

"Sa's sister won't come, ma'am. Brother Sa wants to take care of Bubu and Baba."

That's the word I heard. Aleesa continued to wriggle and the white-robed man simply remained silent. Unexpectedly, Aleesa kowtowed at the feet of the white-robed man. She cried and begged.

"Sister Sa doesn't want to leave Bubu, Uncle. Brother Sa loves Bubu very much. Brother Sa promised, Brother Sa will not be devoted to Bubu. Brother Sa loves Bubu very much. Brother Sa doesn't want to see Bubu crying like that. Brother Sa please, Uncle. Don't bring Brother Sa here. Brother Sa wants to stay longer with Bubu, Baba and Brother Sa's two brothers. Brother Sa can't live without them."

I saw the tears streaming down Aleesa's face. He did not lift his face at all. He simply lowered his head and kowtowed at the feet of that person who was covered in white robes.

"Sa's brother wants to protect Bubu, Uncle."

My heart hurts so much to see Aleesa like this in front of me. He was still prostrating and would not rise until the cloaked man agreed to his request.

I who was crying watched my daughter flinch when I saw the white-robed man already beside me.

"Don't separate me from my daughter."

I started to make a sound even though my throat felt choked.

"I know, even though I lost one of my daughters. I still have two other daughters. But I can't, Uncle. I love my three daughters very much. Don't take any of them from me. They are my life."

I cried and prostrated before the cloaked man. All my tightness, sadness and pain I took it all out. What I cannot say so easily comes out of my mouth

"You are sincere human beings with the love you have. I just want to test you both. Turns out, your inner bond is very strong. Your son's love is so great and so is your love."

"Wake up!"

The order made me and Aleesa rise in our prostration positions. The hands of the robed man touched my head as well as Aleesa.

"I'm not taking your son. I'm giving him back to you and your family who still need him."

A sense of relief perched in my heart. A smile also spread on my lips.

"Thank you, Uncle. Thank you God."

I unceasingly give thanks to the creator and the cloaked man.

"However, I will take another from your body. Are you willing?"

"Don't!" replied Aleesa.

I smiled sincerely and nodded. "Take it! I'll sacrifice anything for my three daughters."

"Rubby."

Aleesa's voice sounded very heavy indicating that he did not agree with the decision I took.

"It's okay, son. A mother will never regret sacrificing her body for her children, "I said, who will not regret what I have decided.

"Go home! Everyone's waiting for you."

The white robed man disappeared. The thick glass that was blocking Aleesa's body and my body was opened.

"Aleesa, honey." I hugged Aleesa's already crying body.

Pov's End.

Iyan squinted his eyes as the white light on Aleesa's left and right came back. Dev, Jojo, Mom and Om Uwo have surrounded the Echa family. Iyan's eyes seemed to be asking them something. However, only a warm smile did they show.

"Pelak tubu."

"Sa uda's eyes."

Radit's eyes widened as he felt the slow movements of the two hands of the woman he loved so much.

"Darling ... Aleas." - Aleesa."

Addhitama immediately contact the doctor. Moreover, he saw for himself Aleesa's eyes started to blink.

"Aleesa, you wake up, son." Radit's tears fell back when he saw Aleesa open her eyes.

"Propa napa nanis?" Voices

weak Aleesa sounded making everyone shout happily.

"Aleish!"

Everyone let out happy tears as Aleesa opened her eyes. Before long, Echa opened his eyes as well and Radit embraced the bodies of his wife and three children with happy tears.

"Don't leave Baba, '" he said.

They hugged with tears that kept flowing. An unexpected miracle. Tears turned into a happy smile.

The doctor arrived at the mortuary and examined Aleesa's body.

"Subhanallah! It was a miracle" said one doctor. Moreover, Aleesa's all-normal condition made them completely unexpected and amazed.

"The miracle is real."

"Mom, Tata Sa inin iyat pinuin."

"Yes, Son. We'll see penguins together, yeah."

Echa hugged Aleesa's body very tightly. Making Aleena and Aleeya embrace Echa's body as well.

"Na Ayang Bubu's word."

"Dede Yes, uda. Anan anis agi, Mom."

There is no happiness other than this. Gathered with his three children who are the encouragement of his life. Like an extra life for him in living this not easy life.

Iyan smiled at his friends. They replied with a smile that was no less happy.

"There's a deal your brother made to get Aleesa back inside her body." Mother whispered something in Iyan's ear.

Iyan looked at mother very intensely. Seeking clarity even deeper.

"Someday, you will understand. There's happiness there's sorrow."

A clue that was enough to make Iyan confused. But he wouldn't think about it now. She wanted to enjoy the happiness her brother felt. Moreover, he saw the white light that protected Aleesa on his left and right was already attached to Aleesa's body again.

"What do you want other than to see penguins?" Addhitama has opened the sound.

"This Sa is Onet Uda."

"This is the monkey, Aleesa." Rindra pulled Rifal's body before Aleesa making everyone laugh.

"Where are these handsome monkeys?" his protest.

"Although handsome, keep a monkey, Om." Rifal's eyes glared sharply as he was ridiculed by Iyan. A quiet little boy, but a deadly mouth.
