The Lives of Five Hundred Thousand
Go to the hospital

Everyone was shocked to hear Zain's reply including Oma Melisa. But not with me because this is not the first incident I saw Zain in foster care by a figure similar to me or a face similar to Hanum's mother. No person who has died is alive again or becomes a ghost, kuntilanak and the like. But I believe that a figure similar to me or Hanum's mother is a jin qorin that resembles our face and somehow the purpose is always to appear in front of me or Zain.

"Oma, Oma who does she mean dear?" Oma asked with a surprised face mixed in curiosity. However, Zain seemed like he was confused to answer.

"Already maghrib better we talk inside." Raihan suggested and approved by everyone.

"honey, what do you want to pray Maghrib congregation?" Raihan asked me when we were in the house.

I glanced at Oma." Emm, Oma I'm sorry, can Nuri borrow me? because Nuri didn't bring me the mukena."

Oma was silent and just stared at me.

"Oma, why shut up?"

Oma looks wrong behavior visible from the way she sits that is not calm.

"Oma, Oma."

I scrunched my forehead to see Oma who seemed to have difficulty speaking.

"Non Nuri wants to pray together?" Tanya bi Sukma when she just came and brought a toy for Zain.

I looked at him." Ah yes Bi, but I didn't bring a mukena."

"We wear only non aunts, it happens that aunts have stock."

I smiled happily." Oh yes Bi, thank you very much!"

"Sama-sama. But can aunts attend congregational prayers?"

"Of course it can be bi, anyone can participate in congregational prayers. Bibi knows that congregational prayer is a greater reward than praying alone." Suddenly Raihan said and convinced bi Sukma.

"So really can aunt come with Raihan?" Bi Sukma asked back, maybe he felt disinclined to us.

"Yes bi can. Anyone can, Oma maybe or doctor Bayu want to follow also pray congregation?"

Doctor Bayu who was playing his cellphone suddenly stunned to see Raihan because his name was mentioned. While Oma just stared dumbly at Raihan

"How does the doctor want to participate in congregational prayer?" Ask Raihan. Doctor Bayu seems increasingly astonished to get an invitation from Raihan to worship.

"Ehm, yes, yes, I.I want to come," replied doctor Bayu looking nervous.

"If Oma?" Raihan's question changed Oma's expression that was initially dumbfounded into looking anxious.

"Oma, Oma. Looks like Oma is ashamed of us.

I looked at Oma with a little concern. If Oma does not have prayer equipment, it means that in her lifetime, Oma has never performed worship even though she is Muslim. Though his age is advanced and it should be Oma increased worship at his current age.

"If Oma wants to pray using my face, I happen to have three stocks." Bi Sukma offered his meeting. Oma smiled and nodded.

We are ready to take ablution water and then roll out a clean carpet as a substitute for prayer mat. After that we began to pray Maghrib worship with khusuk in imami by Raihan.

After praying and when praying, Oma who sat beside me suddenly sobbed crying. I immediately grabbed both of his shoulders and asked." Oma, Oma why are you crying?"

In the middle of sobbing he tried to talk." Oma, Oma is ashamed of you. Oma, Oma is ashamed of God. Life has been more than half a century but Oma has never performed worship, Oma forgets the same god who has been giving life and abundant treasure to Oma. Oma shame Nuri, Oma shame..."

I hugged Oma and calmed her from the increasingly roaring cries. I also advise him with a little knowledge that I know. The rest of Raihan was the one who helped explain it to Oma. As I know that the science of Raihan religion is very far above me.

I stared at the sizable hospital building in front of me. The building that has been standing solidly for decades and until now is still operating well.

"Why silence? come on in" said Raihan beside me.

I followed two handsome men into the hospital.

"I've made an appointment with someone who works at this hospital and I've also asked for the data we need so we'll just see it later," raihan said in between our steps.

Doctor Bayu and I looked at each other. It turned out that the silent Raihan moved quickly without our knowledge.

"You're serious Rai?" Ask doctor Bayu.

"Well, it just so happens that my friend works at this hospital so I'm just asking her for help. He he."

Me and Doctor Bayu smiled. At least we do not need to take a long time to search for these data.

"What..you tell your friend our problem?"

"Just calm down my sister-in-law. I'm not so stupid as to tell you what purpose I'm looking for that data with other people."

It looks like doctor Bayu is advancing his lower lip." Oh, so is my sister-in-law's candidate."

"Ha ha ha." Raihan laughed crisply. While I just smile at hearing it.

We continued walking until we arrived at a door and Raihan knocked on it.

"Lake in." A voice from inside told us to come in and we entered the room. Raihan first entered and then me and doctor Bayu followed.

"Hi, Rai's bro!" greet a young man sitting in his chair and he stood up and gave us a smile. Then Raihan and the man shook hands. After they shook hands the man turned to me and also the doctor Bayu who was standing behind Raihan.

"Who are they, Rai?" ask the man. Then Raihan introduced me as his future wife and doctor Bayu as his future sister-in-law to the man. After that, he let us sit on a sofa that was not too big.

"How's it?"

"Beres boss Rai, hold on." The man stood up and walked up to his desk and picked up a file lying on his desk. After that, he thrust it at Raihan as he said." You know Rai, all night I didn't sleep looking for this data until I stayed at this hospital."

Raihan took the file while smiling broadly." You'll pay hard, bro. Don't worry."

"No, no. I don't want money. You just find me a beautiful wife candidate just like your wife-to-be. Ha ha."

"The face of my future wife is a limited edition in this world only she has."

"It doesn't look a little like that."

"Difficult bro. But even though there's not necessarily him wanting to be with you."

"You always underestimate me." The man's face was bent.

Raihan smiled broadly." Not that I underestimated you bro. But.don't you look like a fit, I'm handsome more than Cha Eun Woo it took a few years to conquer my future wife."

The man's mouth was open." Are you serious, Rai?"

"Ask the same person directly. I liked him five years ago and only got him five years later." Raihan said as he looked at me with a smile on his lips. I honestly say that right now I'm really embarrassed. Raihan opens up past memories in front of other people including doctor Bayu who is smiling mesem just see me.
