The Regrets of the Child and Husband
PAS 29

Mother Naima has returned. He wanted to accompany his grandchildren at home. While after Naima's mother, Amar immediately entered the room where Aliyah was. He sat in the chair beside the bed. He saw Aliyah's pale face, in a matter of seconds, her cries broke. His body shook violently. A memory of the past where similar events loomed over him. How Aliyah suddenly lost her breath after giving birth. The intense bleeding made him limp until he closed his eyes forever.

Amar was crying and roaring. He who loves Aliyah is really afraid of losing forever. Amar constantly shook Aliyah's body. He does not want to lose his love. Amar promised that if given the opportunity, he would be the protector and guardian of Aliyah. He will always be faithful to give it until the time to die.

Luckily the miracle came until finally Aliyah heart beat again. Amar was very happy. Do not forget to bow down in gratitude he did for an incredible miracle.

At the beginning of Nana's birth, the euphoria was still so pronounced. Amar has always been an alert husband and father. Amar also did not hesitate to help Aliyah's work.

But as time passed, his attitude slowly changed. Gradually, Amar became indifferent. No more Amar happy to help his wife. He is a figure who likes to rule. Always wanted to be served. No matter whether you are sick, tired, busy, or sleepy. What he wants, what he needs, everything has to be there and available. Too often demands perfection to forget that his wife is also an ordinary man. Far from perfect. But even so, Aliyah always tried to be as her husband wanted to be. Although in the end he failed to swallow disappointment.

The crying of Amar broke. He ceaselessly regretted all his wrongs and sins to Aliyah. Why did he forget his promises? Why would he neglect his duties and duties as a husband? Why had he ignored his perfect wife all this time?

"Al, sorry, Mom, honey. Mistakes and sins are huge. Surely you don't want to forgive, Mom? It's okay, honey. You are willing to hate. If necessary, hit Mas, caci maki Mas is fine. But ... Please, wake up. Don't leave me, honey. Mas couldn't afford. Better to die than lose you. Please, honey, wake up. Give me one more chance, please. He promised, this time he will keep his promise. He will always be there for you, to take care of you, to protect you, to accompany you to the end of your life. If you break the promise again, you can do anything. Want you to kill it, Mas willingly," he said sobbing while peeping the back of Aliyah's hand. Her tears fell down the back of her hand. "Al, wake up, honey. Wakes up. Al, I love you. Mas your love. Don't punish me like this, honey. Awake."

Amar kept crying. Even he fell asleep with his head hugging Aliyah's hand. Unbeknownst to him, a drop of tears flowed from the corner of Aliyah's closed eyes.

"Am, you don't want to call Aliyah's parents in the village? However they must know how their daughter is," said Mother Naima who returned to visit Aliyah in the hospital. The three took part, but since they were children, Hadi they were not allowed into the hospital building. As a result, they can only wait in the hospital garden accompanied by Amar's sister who is also married. After getting about the state of Aliyah, Amar's younger sister followed her mother.

Yes, Amar's younger sister lives at home with her mother. He could not leave his mother alone, so he stayed at his home. Lucky the husband is wise and understanding. He did not question the desire of the wife who really loved the mother.

Amar was silent. He wants to see you, but Amar himself is afraid to tell you.

"Honestly, Amar was scared, Bun. They must have been very angry and disappointed after knowing what Amar had done to Aliyah. Amar was also worried about how Aliyah's parents were in shock. Amar is afraid of something unwanted. Amar what to do, Bun. Enough Aliyah who suffered because of Amar, Amar did not want to make both parents Aliyah to be destroyed after seeing the state of her daughter," said Amar lirih.

It's been a week, but there hasn't been a change in Aliyah. It's still the same as before. Instead, it was Amar who looked different. His face became more thin, his eyes sunken, his lips dry until his skin peeling. Even his body became thinner. During keeping Aliyah, Amar so often missed his meal. He only drank coffee so as not to sleep. Then spent the time pensively holding Aliyah's hand. Hoping that way, Aliyah could feel the warm grip of her hand. Amar hopes Aliyah knows that she still loves him.

Mother Naima sighed, "however, they should know, Am. Who knows, Aliyah can be sober. No one knows what fate will be, right."

Yes, it's true what Naima said. But what if the opposite happened. Aliyah instead let go and left forever after meeting her parents?

Amar shook his head loudly. He doesn't want that to happen.

"No, Bun. Not for now. Maybe later. It's impossible to hide something this big from them."

Mother Naima nodded, "tomorrow did you go to work?"

Amar nodded, "Amar will send Aliyah to the nurse. Mother in our house used to be for a while, accompany Gaffi and Amri, mother is not papa right?"

Mother Naima rubbed the back of the son with a sad look, "no need to worry. Just focus on Aliyah. But let it be, do not be remiss with your obligations to the children. They still need you. Aliyah was not home, they would be very sad if her father also ignored them."

Amar nodded, "thank you, Bun. Sorry, in your parents' day, I still bother you with taking care of my children. Amar no longer knew what would happen if there was no mother on the side."

"Amar will remember your message. Even mother can see how the original nature of Nafisa. I was the fool who was fooled. But not this time anymore. I want to find out what exactly is the purpose of them doing this to me. Including the report file. Why do I suspect it was Budi who sabotaged the report? I have to investigate."

Meanwhile, in a fairly large house, it appeared a middle-aged man was pensive while staring at the worn-out photo he had in his hands. Sometimes the men rub one by one the picture of the person in the photo with a sad look.

"How are you guys? You must hate me so much, right? I miss you guys so much. Do you miss me too?" he muttered with a pushy look.

As she was getting late in the daydreams of the past, her bedroom door suddenly opened.

"Papa" shouted a woman as she ran towards the man. The man also had a reflex to hide the photo under the pillow.

"You're home, Sa? Why not say it?"

"Papa forgot or did not hear, did you say our daughter will go home today," said the wife who entered the room.

"Why not say it hurts again?"

"Papa is not papa. Only my blood pressure went up a little bit. Your mama, cook meat only."

"Well, what's the wrong mom? Cooking is mbok's business. So blame the cooking mbok, "the wife's scolding.

"Geez, papa was just kidding Ma, no need to rent."

"Yes my mom. There's no sense of humor."

"You, yes, always defend your father."

The child and her husband just chuckled to see the queen in their house nagging.

"Oh yeah, Sa, how? You said if you want to come back again want to bring your girlfriend, why not invited?"

The boy chuckled at her, "quiet, Pa. There's kok. Later, sometime Fisa bring here. Fisa came home in a hurry so forgot to ajakin the him."

The two old men from Nafisa nodded.

"If you can soon, Sa. Papa's worried, not having time to watch your wedding later."

"Papa said what the hell. Don't talk about it. Fisa promised, in the near future Fisa will just come here. At once a proposal."
